Chapter 1326: Chapter 707: How Would You Spend 10 Billion? (Please Subscribe) _2

"Eh, Principal Ding, do you have any instructions?"

Wen Ruohan heard Principal Ding calling her and asked immediately.

"You tell me, I’m now the youngest billionaire in the world, and the discussion has been quite heated these past days. Do you think, as a billionaire entrepreneur, I should contribute to society?"

Ding Yue said with a smile to his secretary Wen Ruohan.

"Hahaha, Principal Ding, your rich folks’ sense of responsibility is indeed high. I do think you could make a contribution to society, after all, with so much money, you can’t even spend it all, hahaha."

Wen Ruohan laughed heartily in response.

billion dollars, when converted to "RMB," would be over six hundred billion yuan. Wen Ruohan could hardly imagine such an astronomical sum of wealth. If it were six hundred yuan, that could be spent in an instant, but six hundred billion, Wen Ruohan truly couldn’t imagine how to spend all that money.

Indeed, poverty can limit one’s imagination.

"Hahaha, true that."

Ding Yue nodded and said, "I’m not one for special spending. I don’t care about cars and houses, and the money is mostly used for promoting the development of Mist City Arts and Science University and the operations of Feiyue Group, as well as paying your salaries. That’s about it. By the way, Xiao Wen, if you had 10 billion dollars, how would you want to spend it?"

"Ah!"

Wen Ruohan was outright stunned and muttered, "10 billion dollars, that’s an amount you can’t even finish spending. Maybe I’d buy a house I want, and a car, no wait, I already have the Feiyue Future New Energy car, so no need for that. I would buy a house for my parents, then I want to travel around the world. After I’m done playing, there’s nothing else I want. Then I might as well donate the rest of the money?"

Wen Ruohan truly found it hard to imagine how she would spend 10 billion dollars.

Even with one billion, after buying a house, buying things you like, there’d still be money left over, so it’s better to donate it than just letting it sit there.

Of course.

This was just Wen Ruohan’s personal "thought," under the premise that she didn’t actually have that 10 billion dollars!

For normal people.

If they suddenly came into a large sum of money, they’d probably think the same as Wen Ruohan: buy houses, cars, then houses for their parents, and then live carefree and travel.

"The wishes of ordinary people are always so simple."

Ding Yue chuckled and said, "How can we make money meaningful? I think, aside from making Mist City Arts and Science University better and growing Feiyue Group to create more jobs, the best way would be to do charity. But Xiao Wen, there are many areas in charity work. Which do you think would suit me?"

Ding Yue redirected the topic back to charity work.

It wasn’t that he had too much money with nowhere to spend it, but rather, having made it onto the Forbes Global Billionaires List and becoming the youngest billionaire ever to attract public attention, it seemed somewhat inappropriate not to do something, right?

Ding!

"Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the University Task - Education Public Welfare!"

Just as Ding Yue was pondering over which charity cause to take on, his mind suddenly echoed with the long-absent system notification sound.

"Principal Ding, I think, since we’re involved in education, why not engage in educational charity? For example, education in rural areas needs a lot of money, along with initiatives like the Hope Elementary School and such."

Wen Ruohan thought for a moment, then suggested this to Principal Ding.

Well done!

Xiao Wen’s suggestion was exactly the same as the University Task Ding Yue had just received from the system.

Educational charity!

Indeed!

That’s what Ding Yue was thinking too.

His Mist City Arts and Science University focused on higher education, cultivating college talents, but education at the elementary, middle, and high school levels was still a crucial part of the educational chain.

How many students are there in the nation?

How many students drop out at the middle or high school level, and out of those who make it through each year, how many can go to college?

Therefore, education in elementary, middle, and high schools is very important for many people.

Among them, the most important aspect is primary education in rural areas, which—as Secretary Wen Ruohan said—is in dire need in many parts of Xia Country.

"Principal Ding, are you planning to donate money to build Hope Elementary Schools?"

Wen Ruohan suddenly asked with great excitement.

The charisma of Principal Ding soared yet again. He was handsome to begin with, capable, extremely wealthy, and now he was also invested in charitable causes. Such a person was simply perfect.

"Yes, that’s the plan."

Ding Yue nodded and said with a smile, "Our Mist City Arts and Science University focuses on higher education, so why not extend that to primary, middle, and high schools as well? Don’t you think so?"

"Yes, exactly!"

Wen Ruohan quickly nodded and answered, "So, Principal Ding, how much are you planning to donate to build the schools? A billion yuan?"

This couldn’t help but remind Wen Ruohan of that man.

That’s right, the man with the surname Gu, who made many movies every year and then donated money to build Hope Elementary Schools—the man who never tanned.

"A billion yuan?"

Upon hearing this, Ding Yue laughed and shook his head, "What’s a billion yuan going to accomplish?"

It should be known that Ding Yue’s personal net worth had already surpassed 100 billion "RMB". Donating just a billion to build schools would be, quite frankly, a bit stingy.

"Ah, but I heard it only takes about 500,000 yuan to build a new Hope Elementary School."

Wen Ruohan couldn’t help scratching her head as she spoke.

"Then let’s build more Hope Elementary Schools, giving those rural villages with poor and difficult schooling conditions a much better learning environment."

Ding Yue said with a smile.

"Wow!"

Wen Ruohan said excitedly, "Principal Ding, you’re truly magnificent."

"No, no, no."

Ding Yue shook his head and said, "I am not magnificent."

He had no desire to be a magnificent person. It was just that the situation in Xia Country was as such; some places, like Mist City, Haicheng, and Yancheng, were prosperous, but many areas in the west and northwest were poor. The children in those rural villages urgently needed a good environment for schooling.

"I plan to set up a Feiyue Project Fund, similar to the Hope Project. Each year, as long as Feiyue Group’s profits meet our target, we can invest a certain percentage of profits into the Feiyue Project Fund. At the same time, I will personally contribute to the fund regularly. Besides building Feiyue Elementary Schools, the fund could also provide financial support to help poor students."

Ding Yue had already roughly formulated a plan in his mind, and he had even come up with a name for the schools he planned to build in the future, which would be called Feiyue Elementary School.

However, how many places in the country needed schools like the Hope Elementary School to be built?

And how many children from poor families needed help?

That was a question.

To answer this question, a social survey and statistical data were needed.

Thinking this, Ding Yue immediately thought of the students at Mist City Arts and Science University, and looked at Secretary Wen Ruohan, saying, "Xiao Wen, could you check how many students we have at Mist City Arts and Science University majoring in sociology-related subjects?"

"Ah?"

Wen Ruohan was slightly stunned on hearing this, then immediately turned on her computer to look up the data on student majors at various departments in Mist City Arts and Science University.

About three minutes later, Wen Ruohan found the data: "Principal Ding, we have nearly a thousand students in social sciences at Mist City Arts and Science University."

"What do you want to do, Principal Ding?"

Wen Ruohan asked curiously.

"I need some data, data on what the rural and remote rural areas need in terms of educational facilities and teacher resources," Ding Yue said earnestly.
