On the last day of December, Henglong Charity Foundation released its first annual work report.
This report was compiled by Su Wantang and his team for nearly a month.
The cover is printed with the logo of Foundation--
A lit match, the shape of the flame exactly spells the pinyin abbreviation of "Henglong".
The report is not too thick, but the data on each page has been repeatedly checked:
Western New Energy Teacher Training Program covers 23 counties in four provinces Sichuan, Chongqing, Guizhou, and Yunnan.
A total of more than 5,000 rural teachers have been trained;
Energy science knowledge corners for primary schools in poverty-stricken areas were built in 37 schools.
More than 20,000 primary school students were exposed to the Solar Energy and Wind Energy experimental devices in the classroom for the first time;
Foundation spent about 180 million people RMB throughout the year, accounting for less than 20% of Zhao Chen's initial capital injection of one billion.
However, the project execution rate and acceptance pass rate are both 100%.
When Su Wantang put the report on Zhao Chen's desk, he did not open it to a certain page for him as before.
She just put the report in his hand and said, "This is Foundation's work summary for this year. Take a look at it when you have time."
Then he sat down on the sofa opposite him.
Her sitting posture is completely different from when she was an assistant to Chairman before--
It is no longer the posture of leaning slightly sideways, ready to stand up at any time to pour tea or hand over documents.
Instead, he leaned upright on the back of the sofa, folded his hands on his knees, and looked calm and determined.
Zhao Chen opened the report, and the first page was the preface written by Su Wantang himself, with only a few lines:
"Let every child have the opportunity to understand the changes that are taking place in the world.
This is not a slogan, it is a fact that we have seen with our own eyes in the classrooms of 37 rural primary schools-
When those children pressed the switch of the Solar Energy experimental device for the first time,
There was a light in their eyes the moment they saw the little light bulb lighting up in the sunlight.
That kind of light has nothing to do with grades, but everything to do with curiosity."
He closed the report and looked at Su Wantang.
She was wearing a light gray cashmere cardigan, and her hair was still tied back casually.
But his whole temperament is completely different from when Chairman's Office served him tea.
Her eyes at that time were gentle and focused,
But always with a sense of "I'm guarding the rear for you";
There is something more in her eyes now - not alertness, but a sense of accomplishment.
That sense of accomplishment was not borrowed from Zhao Chen, she made it bit by bit herself.
"Wantang, this report is better than Henglong's annual report."
He put the report on the table, leaned back in his chair,
"The first phase Two Hundred Million, the actual expenditure is 180 million, the implementation rate is 100%, and the acceptance rate is 100%.
This report card can be obtained at any Philanthropic Foundation in China. Your goal has been achieved."
Su Wantang smiled and did not lower her eyes like before when he praised her.
"My goal is not to have a 100% acceptance rate.
They are the children who touched the Solar Energy experimental device for the first time in the village primary school.
When they grow up, will they still remember that there was a winter many years ago?
Someone installed a row of small light bulbs in their classroom, which light up when the sun shines on them.
What I want to do in the future is bigger - to write the New Energy education system into the school-based textbooks of rural primary schools in western China.
This matter takes time, more money, and layer-by-layer coordination with the education department. But I have plenty of patience."
She turned forward a few pages of the annual work report and pointed to one of the rows of numbers to Zhao Chen,
"This is the usage frequency statistics of science popularization corners in 37 schools.
The top three schools use each science corner more than ten times a week on average.
Natural science teachers have used experimental devices as classroom teaching aids.
What touched me the most was Guizhou Bijie, a village primary school. The school did not have a dedicated experimental equipment room.
The children used old wooden boards they saved to build a shelf behind the classroom.
Put the Solar Energy experimental device on it, and after class, line up to touch the things that can spin.
They call that shelf 'Energy Corner', which is one less word than the name we named 'Energy Science Corner', but the name is more natural than ours.
Every scratch on that shelf is more proof that we're doing something right than any line of data in this report."
Zhao Chen turned the annual work report to the appendix page, with several photos of village primary school classrooms posted on it.
One of the photos taken is "Energy Corner" behind the small village classroom Guizhou Bijie--
On a simple shelf made of a few old wooden boards, the Solar Energy experimental device is neatly placed.
A little girl in school uniform is standing on tiptoes to reach the Wind Energy Model on the top layer,
The sun shone in from the classroom window and fell on her upturned face.
At the same time, Shen Zhiyi completed her year-end review report on the Legal Department.
This report is thicker than Su Wantang's public welfare annual report.
It lists all the projects she has handled since she joined the company in the past few months--
From Bubble Mary listing Legal Document verification to Nvidia Cross-Border Guarantee Document review,
From the compliance review of Henglong's stock price change announcement to the preliminary research on Contingency Plan's response to Zhang Qingxue's new shareholding reduction regulations.
Each case is accompanied by a detailed timeline, legal basis and operational conclusion.
The format is so standardized that it can be directly archived as Legal Department's internal training materials.
She spent an afternoon revising the report three times from beginning to end.
Make sure that every clause reference is accurate, and follow-up matters are stated in the conclusion column of each case.
After making the changes, she printed out the report, bound it, and delivered it to the Zhang Qingxue office in person.
Zhang Qingxue took the report and flipped through a few pages without saying any words of praise.
I just glanced at her from the top of my glasses and asked - Bubble Mary The additional Joint Disclosure Statement in the cornerstone investor lock-up period terms,
Are you handling the final version of the Legal Department archive?
Shen Zhiyi nodded yes, and Zhang Qingxue crossed the project off his work list and officially handed it over to Shen Zhiyi for independent follow-up.
After finishing this matter, Shen Zhiyi returned to his work station and turned the last page of the report to the back.
I wrote a line of words in pencil on the margin of the page--
"When I joined the company, I said I wanted to be his comrade-in-arms, not someone he protected. Now I can confirm that I did it."
After she finished writing, she tore off the page, folded it and put it in her drawer.
In the evening, Su Wantang came out of Foundation's office.
When passing by the Legal Department floor, I met Shen Zhiyi at the elevator entrance.
The two looked at each other, and Su Wantang asked, "Are you off work?" Shen Zhiyi nodded.
They walked out of Henglong Headquarters Building together, with thin raindrops floating on Shan City in the winter evening,
Chaotianmen Bridge's steel cable was dimmed into two soft arcs of light by the light in the rain and fog.
Zhao Chen When I turned off my computer in the office on the top floor, I received two messages on my phone.
One is the first draft of the additional budget plan from Foundation sent by Su Wantang, with a sentence attached:
"Next year the plan is to expand to 50 schools, and the budget needs to be increased from Two Hundred Million to 500 million.
Last time you approved an increase to 500 million, this is a detailed plan."
The other one was from Shen Zhiyi, with only one line:
"The year-end review is finished.
Aunt Zhang officially gave me the independent responsibility for the follow-up of the lock-up period terms for Bubble Mary cornerstone investors.
You don't have to wait for me to eat tonight."
