A grand pledging ceremony began.
Originally, if the donation list was not released to the media, then these people might just be pledging donations.
The list of donation amounts can be published in the media, then the meaning will be different.
This is a good opportunity for them to improve their reputation.
Donating too little will only make you lose face.
There were more than a hundred people present, except for those juniors or women who were brought here to see the world, who was not worth tens of millions or more?
Even among billionaires, there are more than a dozen.
“I will donate 300,000 Haojiang coins.”
“I am not as rich as Mr. Yan, but Mr. Tan also donated 100,000 Haojiang coins.”
"I, Huo, should also donate five million Haojiang coins."
"I, Li, donated one million Haojiang coins on behalf of the Brilliant Hotel."
...
Every pledged donation was directly recorded by the staff.
This is not a matter of pledging a donation, but giving money.
In this kind of scene, no one dares to talk about it, donating blindly but not donating, or not donating enough, it will definitely be difficult to continue to live in Haojiang. No one dares to take this risk, after all Even Mr. Governor is here.
The finance staff of Tong Sin Tong and the finance staff of Pujing Hotel are assisting in collecting the payment.
They are all large amounts of money. Everyone fills out the check directly. After it is settled, they will go to the bank to directly exchange it for bank deposit.
In the end, the data on on-site donations was shocking.
This time, the organizer actually invited 118 guests, and the donated funds reached 78.3 million Haojiang coins.
Among them, Su City donated the most, with a total of 10 million Haojiang coins.
In addition, Mr. He and Mr. Huo each donated 5 million Haojiang coins.
These three people donated a total of 20 million Haojiang coins.
The guest at the scene donated the least, 100,000 Haojiang coins.
But in fact, the majority of people donated 300,000 to 400,000 Haojiang coins on site.
Although hundreds of thousands of Haojiang coins may not seem like much, in fact, in this era, hundreds of thousands of Haojiang coins are already a huge sum of money.
In Haojiang, it only costs less than 100,000 Haojiang coins to buy a relatively small second-hand house.
In other words, the guests present were at least equivalent to donating a small house.
More than 78 million, plus the nearly 4 million Haojiang coins obtained from the auction, a total of more than 80 million Haojiang coins. This fund is enough for Tongshan Tang to spend on charity , after many years of prosperity, they can do more charitable things.
This is a very good thing for the entire Haojiang.
As the largest charity organization in Haojiang, Tongshan Tong has always been recognized by the citizens of Haojiang. It is a very pure charity and has made great contributions to the charity of Haojiang for decades. .
After learning about the history of Tongshan Hall, Su Cheng directly chose to believe in it.
Anyway, with government supervision, supervision from the Pujing Hotel, supervision from Mr. Huo and other big bosses, tens of millions of Haojiang dollars may be a huge sum of money, but you don’t want to touch this A huge sum of money is extremely difficult to obtain.
This amount of money is already a very unexpected thing for the three organizers.
Originally, they just wanted to raise one to two million Haojiang coins through this charity auction, and they were already very satisfied.
But now, there are more than 80 million Haojiang coins.
Even the Governor's Mansion was excited when they saw this huge amount of funds and had the idea of misappropriating it. However, in the end, Izidi extinguished the idea without hesitation.
The idea went as quickly as it came.
Because he had no right to embezzle this money.
Everyone donates, not for the government to misappropriate, but purely for charity. Everyone is supervising it, and the government has no power to misappropriate it.
If the government wants to embezzle, then these donors are eligible to take back the money.
Moreover, the current Haojiang government declared a few years ago that Haojiang is China's territory and will definitely be returned in the future.
In this way, he will not do such offending things.
Su City will spend 10.7 million Haojiang coins tonight, of which 10 million Haojiang coins are direct donations, and the other 700,000 are charity funds needed for the auction.
For him, these are just small amounts of money, and he doesn’t care too much about it. He is so willful when he has money.
The staff also directly helped move the Jingdezhen blue and white porcelain and snake head bronze statues to the parking lot and put them on the trunk.
Thanks to the fact that the two treasures are not too big and can be put into the trunk of the car smoothly, otherwise they would have to be escorted back by a special car.
At this time, it was already very late, and Su Cheng also planned to take Gillian back to Songshan Villa.
"Mr. Su, see you tomorrow." In the underground parking lot of the Pujing Hotel, Governor Izidi smiled and shook hands with Su Cheng.
"Mr. Governor, see you tomorrow." Su Cheng nodded.
In the industrial park on Taipa Island, tomorrow's groundbreaking ceremony will be attended not only by Sioux City, but also by Wei Li, Yang Chaoye, and even Governor Ichidi.
In this industrial park, all subsequent use rights belong to the Hutchison Whampoa Group and the companies under the Su Group and are not leased to the outside world.
Moreover, in the next few years, the two major groups will invest hundreds of millions of dollars in this industrial park alone.
Such a huge investment, and it is also an industry, not an entertainment industry, will create a lot of jobs.
So, even if Su City does not invite Governor Izhidi, Izhidi will take the initiative to attend and give Suzhou City enough face.
Back in the car, Su Cheng looked at the time. It was already past ten o'clock in the evening.
It only took less than five minutes to return to Songshan Villa from Pujing Hotel.
There are not many cars in Haojiang as a whole, with only 20,000 to 30,000 vehicles in existence.
It was already late at night, and there were even fewer people driving outside.
The buses have stopped running, and the rich people have gone back to rest. Only one or two taxis occasionally drive by on the streets, but there are more motorcycles.
After all, Haojiang is not big. Compared with cars, motorcycles are more convenient and most importantly cheaper.
Back at Songshan Villa, the market first asked the bodyguards to move the Jingdezhen blue and white porcelain and the bronze snake head statue into the villa.
Among them, Su Cheng planned to put the blue and white porcelain here, but he arranged it in the screen cabinet in the lobby on the first floor. After the blue and white porcelain was placed, a lot of it was added to the hall out of thin air.
A Yuan Dynasty antique should not be taken too seriously by Su Cheng.
As for the bronze snake head statue, Su Cheng also placed it directly in the study room on the first floor.
However, when he returns to Xiangjiang, he will take it back with him.
Today, the Su family villa has eight bronze statues of zodiac animal heads. With this one, the number has reached nine.
We are getting closer and closer to collecting the bronze statues of the twelve zodiac animal heads.
Su Cheng found Ji Qi very addictive, especially the closer he got to Ji Qi, the more he paid attention to it.
Collecting the bronze statues of the twelve zodiac animal heads as soon as possible is also to prevent some people from taking advantage of China's national sentiments for malicious commercial hype. (End of chapter)
