World Internet Forum/Peace Prize

Forum丨Paper丨Education丨Public Welfare

April 5rd, 1pm.

The World Internet Forum website suddenly changed. On the right side of the top title, two-fifths of the space was allocated to the "Peace Prize". When you click on the "Peace Prize" tile, only a window pops up: "Planning in progress, please stay tuned!"

Then there is the sub-title, with three more sections on the right: Papers, Education, and Public Welfare.

The paper section is further divided into sub-sections such as computer, medicine, biology, chemistry, physics, mechanics, mathematics, and economics.

In the education section, there are subjects such as Chinese, mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, geography, ideology and morality, computer, medicine, mechanics, economics, etc.

In the public welfare section, there are currently four sub-sections: Peace Charity Foundation, Tung Wah Group of Hospitals, Hong Kong Jockey Club, and Hong Kong Community Chest.

The homepage of the World Internet Forum is still a lively forum exchange interface, divided into sub-sections such as general information, technology, news, economy, and culture.

The comprehensive section is a good place to brag and gossip. The moderator will not care about the truth or falsity of the news, nor will he ban accounts that curse others.

Other sections such as technology, news, and economy are much more rigorous. Accounts that insult others will be banned in a short period of time; the first time is a 1-day ban, the next time is a 7-day ban, and the third time is a permanent ban.

As a result, the Chinese people who found themselves unable to "read the entire text" of papers and unable to watch educational videos were fed up and rushed to the world Internet forum to speak out, resulting in countless accounts being banned.

Zhang Heping, the initiator of restricting the access rights of magnesium IPs, ignored those magnesium guys. After he finished uploading some papers and educational videos, he handed the matter of the World Internet Forum to Tang Wei, the head of the technical department of Umbrella.

In addition, Hong Kong Island's first cloud server has been opened for semi-public testing. Websites such as the World Internet Forum, Peace Charity Foundation, Peace Hospital, Tingmei Trading, and Peace Vocational Training Institute have all been moved there to increase stress testing.

Ordinary people may not feel deeply about the emergence of Hong Kong Island Cloud Server, but for major websites and financial institutions on the Internet, it is like a thunderclap in the sky, and they are stunned!

No need to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy a server to open a website?

...

The next day, Saturday.

Peace Vocational Training College, Central, Hong Kong Island.

582 students from the Class of 85 Peace Vocational Training College who have not yet secured a job and are still looking for work, are now standing neatly in the stadium, looking at the mysterious principal on the rostrum, Zhang Heping, the richest man in Hong Kong Island!

"It's a pity that all the students present here are unable to stay in our Heping Group!" Zhang Heping looked at the students indifferently and said in a gentle tone:

"In the college's electronic suggestion box, I saw many students complaining about unfairness, reporting that a certain student stayed in the group by flattering others, and even reporting that a certain staff member accepted bribes to keep a certain student in the group."

"I sent people to investigate and punished those who violated the rules. However, this is not important to you now!"

"After more than two years of study, you failed to stay in the Peace Group. You lost an opportunity."

"However, you are still young and have many opportunities. If you miss this opportunity, then learn from your previous mistakes and face the next opportunity positively!"

"The career guidance teacher has updated a list of companies and job openings on the college's official website. We hope that everyone will actively submit resumes and respond to interviews before graduation in June, so as to strive to obtain internship qualifications for these positions."

"Next, please invite the career counselor, Mr. Sun, to introduce the relevant situation to everyone."

After he finished speaking, Zhang Heping handed the microphone to the middle-aged woman next to him, and then looked idly at the students below, looking at the blondes and brown-haired people among the black hair, wondering why these foreign students did not return to their home countries to find jobs.

The companies that Mr. Sun introduced at this time were all Hong Kong companies whose stocks the Heping Group had bought in recent years and became the largest, second largest or third largest shareholder.

There are also companies with heavy holdings in Japan, but those stocks will eventually have to be abandoned.

The key point is that Japan's economic bubble has already blown up, and sending students to Japan...

Zhang Heping thought about the lost thirty years of Japan in his previous life. After the economic bubble, many people from the mainland still went to Japan to work.

Looking at the students in the audience, when we conducted a preliminary survey on them, we found that not a single student from Hong Kong Island was willing to work in the Mainland; instead, it was the foreign students who were willing to go, but unfortunately they did not have passports.

After the employment mobilization meeting, Zhang Heping went to the hospital for a walk.

Because medical staff from the mainland have to return to work after one or two years of exchange study, 85% of the 9 students stayed at the hospital. The remaining 1% either skipped too many classes, had poor grades, were too lazy, or had mines at home and gave up voluntarily.

After leaving the hospital and returning home, Zhang Heping's third daughter Zhang Nian called again to urge him to sing more songs.

May 5th is the 5th anniversary of the founding of the Youth League, and it is also the May Fourth Youth Day, so this girl wants to perform on stage.

"Dad! I have joined the student union of Capital University. This performance is very important to me!" Zhang Nian's crisp voice came from the other end of the phone, and his tone was very excited. "The seniors in the senior year will graduate soon. The president of the student union and related cadres will be re-elected next semester..."

Listening to San Yatou's desire to make progress, Zhang Heping thought for a while and said, "How's the signal on your end? I'll sing for you first, and then I'll send the lyrics and music score to your email."

"Great! Great!" Zhang Nian said excitedly, "You are worthy of being my dad! You wrote a new song so quickly!"

"In the beginning, I was still a naive and crybaby. Ten years later, I finally understood that as long as I give it my all, there is no such thing as failure..."

Because he was worried about the bad signal, Zhang Heping sang louder.

Then, it alarmed the eldest wife Tang Xin who was cooking soup in the kitchen.

Tang Xin heard two lines of lyrics at the kitchen door and hurriedly asked the nanny to watch the soup pot while she ran out, "Honey, wait a minute! I'll find the VCR..."

Then, the woman ran to the TV cabinet and found the VCR and videotapes.

"Okay!" Zhang Heping said into the microphone, "Your mother wants to record a video for me. When it's done, I'll have my bodyguard send you the video tape, lyrics, and music score."

"Dad!" Zhang Nian on the other end of the phone said anxiously, "Can you please finish singing first? It's very uncomfortable to only listen to half of it!"

Zhang Heping showed a helpless expression to Tang Xin and said into the phone: "Okay! I'll sing it again and record it later!"

"...Run! Proud young man! In your young heart is a firm belief!"

"Burn! The blood of pride! I want to sing the song of victory again!"

After the song was finished, Zhang Heping said with a smile, "If you can't guess the title of the song, I won't send anyone to deliver it to you."

"What a proud young man!" Zhang Nian said excitedly, "Dad, you are amazing! This song is as good as your previous song 'Young China'!"

"Okay, stop flattering me. Your mother is waiting anxiously in front of the TV!" Zhang Heping hung up the phone while joking.

Then, Zhang Heping took the VCR from his smiling first wife Tang Xin and went to the music room upstairs.

After Tang Xin went upstairs, she called out Chen Shuting from the study and her fourth daughter Zhang Feng from the studio.

After Zhang Heping finished recording the song, he took out a pen and wrote down two copies of the lyrics and music score. He gave one to his first wife Tang Xin to apply for copyright, and gave the other to his bodyguard to take to the capital.

Weekends are short and pass by unknowingly.

May 5th is Youth Day, but this festival has not yet become popular in Hong Kong Island. Students in most schools on Hong Kong Island are attending classes as usual, including Peace Vocational Training College.

As usual, Zhang Heping accompanied his concubine Chen Shuting into the Economic and Trade Building, and then went to Heping Investment and Tingmei Trading separately.

Japanese stocks saw a sharp rise on May 5, with the Nikkei index breaking through 1 points.

Today, Monday, the stock market opened and it was still green. The upward trend was good, which is very suitable for slowly pulling up and withdrawing.

"Master, I don't quite understand!" A fund manager who had just sold all his stocks and had no trading plans came to Zhang Heping's desk and asked in confusion:

"Looking at the current Japanese stock market, coupled with Japan's loose monetary policy and the fact that foreign capital is following suit, I think Japanese stocks will continue to rise for a while. Why are you asking us to withdraw now?"

Zhang Heping nodded, "At present, the second round of bull market in Japanese stocks has just started. As long as the loan interest rate in Japan does not increase, it will continue to rise."

After listening to Zhang Heping's explanation, the fund manager became even more confused.

Before he could ask any more questions, Zhang Heping continued, "Once the funds of our Heping Investment Company are withdrawn, the confidentiality agreement you signed earlier will be invalidated."

Zhang Heping watched the stunned expression on the other person's face turn into surprise, and said with a smile: "After the confidentiality agreement is invalidated, you can choose to continue working for the company, or you can resign and trade Japanese stocks. At that time, I will not interfere with you."

A female fund manager who was eavesdropping nearby asked excitedly, "Boss, are you telling the truth?"

Zhang Heping smiled and turned on the microphone, saying to all the fund managers in the big office: "Now tell me one thing!"

A familiar electronic synthesizer sounded, "After all of Ridao's funds are withdrawn, we will settle the bonuses immediately, then cancel the previous confidentiality agreement and sign a new confidentiality agreement not to disclose any operations during this period."

When this was said, most fund managers were still a little confused.

Zhang Heping's voice sounded again, "After signing the new confidentiality agreement, you can choose to continue to stay in the company, or you can resign and start stocks, or do some other business."

"Boss, can we be distributors of Tingmei Trading Company?" A young man stood up in the middle of the office and shouted.

"Tingmei Trading is downstairs, go ask yourself!" Zhang Heping said with a smile: "Just now, Manager Ye asked me why I should withdraw my investment when the Japanese stock market is so good."

"I told him that the second round of the bull market in Japanese stocks has just begun, and as long as the loan interest rates in Japan do not increase, they will continue to rise."

"This is true, but it hides a huge risk! Once it breaks out, it will be another major stock market crash!"

"With a fund as large as our Peace Investment, our ability to resist this kind of risk is very weak, so we must consider withdrawing in advance and then seek profits in other ways!"

As for the method, Zhang Heping did not explain.

After the relevant bonuses are settled for these 300 fund managers, it is still unknown how many of them will be able to stay.

After all, once they get their bonuses, they will be able to achieve financial freedom. Who would be willing to work for others?

Zhang Heping answered a few more questions and then let the fund managers get back to their work.

Zhang Heping also has to coordinate with those fund managers who complete their stock buying and selling tasks ahead of schedule.

In the process of the main force selling stocks, it is not enough to simply sell the stocks. Various means must be used to ensure the stock's rise and attract more retail investors and institutions to enter the market to take over at high prices.

Otherwise, the main force will not make any money!

...

Apart from the stock market and the hospital, the investments in Shenzhen and Jingcheng were not going smoothly. There was no news from Huang Xuemin in Wucheng, simply because the policies were a bit obscure.

Zhang Heping is not in a hurry about this. As far as he remembers from his previous life, the spring breeze of reform and opening up would not blow until 92. There would definitely be a lot of friction before that, so he could only slowly adjust and wait!

After the Japanese stock market rose smoothly for two days, a piece of news in a mainland newspaper caught Zhang Heping's attention: the Daxinganling fire!

When Zhang Heping saw this news, a song title suddenly popped up in his mind: Mohe Ballroom!

Then, he remembered the forest fire that had been burning for 27 days!

After Zhang Heping put down the newspaper, he immediately called Director Wang and expressed his willingness to contribute funds to put out the fire and hoped that Director Wang would contact his superiors to dispatch personnel.

"Daxinganling fire?" Director Wang's puzzled voice came from the microphone. It seemed that he had not seen the news in the newspaper.

"Auntie Wang!" Zhang Heping patiently explained, "Since the beginning of spring this year, there has been no rainfall in the Greater Khingan Range. If this fire starts, I'm afraid it won't be put out in a short time with so few people, and it will cause great losses."

"Please report to Mr. Hua that I invested 1 million magnesium yuan to contract the forest farm that caught fire and use it to grow Chinese medicinal herbs. The higher-ups will use this money to organize manpower and material resources to put out the fire."

Director Wang understood now and said hurriedly, "Okay, I'll call now!"

Regardless of whether Zhang Heping was motivated by selfish or public interest reasons, his reason for paying money to put out the fire was reasonable, not to mention that Director Wang also hoped that Zhang Heping would invest in the mainland.

If Zhang Heping can contract land in Daxinganling to grow Chinese medicinal herbs, it will definitely drive local economic development, just like Nanla Village.

Not long after, Director Wang called back, "Heping, Mr. Hua has agreed to help you negotiate this matter. Do you plan to let the Heping Group pay for it, or let the Heping Charity pay for it?"

Zhang Heping replied: "Tingmei Trading will provide the funding. After the fire is out, I will also ask Aunt Wang to help contact the local authorities to discuss the planting of Chinese medicinal herbs."

"Okay!" Director Wang Sumei agreed straightforwardly, "Prepare the money first. I'll call you after I get the money into your bank account."

"Yes!" Zhang Heping responded, then turned around and handed the matter over to his concubine Chen Shuting to arrange.

That night, the mainland's weather forecast program broadcast color satellite images of the Greater Khingan Range fire. The host explained that the fire was spreading faster than a car and that 5 people had been organized to put out the fire.

Chen Shuting, who was watching the news on TV next to her, had already picked up the phone to inquire about the fund allocation from the finance department and was preparing to transfer the money through the Bank of China.

Zhang Heping also picked up the phone and asked Director Wang for the account number.

Finally, Zhang Heping passed another message to the Hong Kong and Macao media that Tingmei Trading will spend 1 million yuan to contract the forest farm that caught fire in Daxinganling, planning to use it for the cultivation of Chinese medicinal materials.

Tingmei Trading contracted a fire forest farm in the mainland. This is not a question of how much money to invest, but whether the capitalists in Hong Kong Island can contract mainland land!

At the height of the opposition to bourgeois liberalization, before Shenzhen launched the land use rights auction, Tingmei Trading proposed the contract at this time, which seemed like taking advantage of the situation and was opposed by many people in the capital!

For Zhang Heping, who is far away in Hong Kong Island, the fire in Daxinganling has no effect on him at all. The purpose of investing 1 million yuan to contract the forest farm is not simple, but the starting point is to further promote reform and opening up.

...

Capital, a certain sea office.

Mr. Hua, who had just left, walked into the office with two guards carrying something. He said solemnly to the dozen people present:

"Everyone, please allow me to interrupt. Here is a video recording of the song sung by the third daughter of Leader Goose at the 65th anniversary party of the Youth League tonight. It is said to be a new work of Leader Goose. I hope everyone will listen to it."

After he finished speaking, the two guards had already put down the LCD TV and VCR and quickly connected the lines.

After a quick forward, Zhang Nian appeared on the TV, standing on the stage. "The next song was written and composed by my father. The title of the song is: Proud Teenager!"

"In the beginning, I was still a naive and crybaby child..."

"Run! Proud young man! In your young heart is a firm belief!"

"I agree!" Before the song was finished, Mrs. Zheng couldn't help but speak out, "I believe in this kid, Touyan!"

Mr. Li also raised his hand and said, "I agree! With Leader's wealth and technology, he would be a distinguished guest in any country. We shouldn't doubt him!"

Mr. Hua looked at the people who had opposed Tingmei Trade's contracting of the forest farm and said solemnly, "Don't worry, everyone. Here is a video of the song that Leader Goose sang at home!"
