Chapter 618 Another side of Su Ye
In a remote village surrounded by mountains, a winding road runs through the forest.
The road has been in disrepair and dilapidated for many years. It is already difficult to walk, but it has been raining recently, and the road is even more muddy.
There is a steep mountain wall on one side, and an abyss on the other side. Even when the weather is fine, the driver does not dare to be careless when driving on the road, let alone after the rain, although there is no danger, he still has to be careful.
One after the other, two off-road vehicles drove slowly on this muddy mountain path.
Yang Yang and Su Ye sat in the back row of the next car, bumping along the way.
They came to Yunnan two days ago. After going out for a day, they set off yesterday to go to the mountainous area in northwest Yunnan.
First, I arrived in a county. After spending the night, I set off early this morning, but it turned out that the distance of [-] to [-] kilometers was only an hour in an area with good road conditions. Not to mention the mud here, there was also a traffic accident on the road, and I walked for a whole morning.
Originally, both he and Su Ye were full of leisurely interest in the scenery of the surrounding mountains and forests, but gradually, they both lost interest.
This time, they followed the expedition team to the mountainous area.
The expedition team belongs to a charitable organization in Beijing. The purpose of their trip is to go into the mountains and inspect a primary school in the mountains.
The person in charge of this charity organization is one of Su Wenhong's students, and Su Ye's senior, Shen Jun. He is in his 30s and has a good family background. After graduating from university, he once went to mountainous areas to support education. Since then, he has been engaged in charity work, dedicated to helping mountainous children improve their school environment, and has frequent contacts with Su Wenhong.
At the beginning of the year, after Su Ye signed with Armani, he filmed three films and endorsed several commercials in succession, earning a lot of money. After discussing with Su Wenhong, he decided to donate to a school, and the investment was about 200 million.
This time, they came to inspect the school.
……
In the impoverished mountainous area, outsiders rarely come here all the year round. Suddenly, two large vehicles came. Although the road was covered with mud, they quickly attracted the attention of the whole village.
According to the information provided by Shen Jun, there are about 3000 people in this village, and there are three other villages within a radius of one kilometer, but the scale is smaller than here, with about 1000 people, but the children in these four villages are basically in the same primary school.
The average annual income of the surrounding villages is about 800 yuan, and life is very poor, but the enrollment rate is very high, reaching 400%, so there are many students in the school, about three to four hundred.
In recent years, as more and more adults have left the mountains to go out to work, the students have gradually become left-behind children. Many even have no adults at home, and they all board at schools, but the conditions in the schools are extremely poor.
Just after the Spring Festival, most of the villagers have not gone out to work. When they heard that the charity organization that aided in the construction of the school came, they all rushed over to see it, and the village officials and school leaders came to receive it.
Both Yang Yang and Su Ye were wearing cotton hats and masks, and they were not afraid of being recognized, but when they got out of the car, they were a little stunned when they saw the situation in the school.
Sometimes language expression is very limited.
Along the way, Shen Jun told them a lot about the school, and they had imagined it before, but after seeing it with their own eyes, they still found that they still underestimated it.
According to the introduction of school leaders and village cadres, this school has been in existence for more than 60 years, and the current teaching building was built 30 years ago. It adopts a brick-wood structure, that is, the walls are made of bricks, and the roof is made of beams and tiles.
Due to disrepair for a long time, the beams and wood have long been decayed and damaged, and many walls are also tilted with cracks everywhere. Thanks to the frequent maintenance of the village and the school, otherwise it may have collapsed long ago.
Standing on the playground, Yang Yang looked at the two-story teaching building from a distance. Not to mention the mottled walls, several windows were broken, and the ceiling gave off a precarious feeling that it might fall down at any time, which made people feel a little scared.
The school leaders are big-hearted, or they are used to it. They smiled and said that it would be okay. They had just reinforced it before the Chinese New Year.
Next to it is a long row of single-storey brick and wood bungalows, which is the dormitory for teachers and students of the school.
There is also a small one-story house with a kitchen and canteen. Yang Yang probed over to have a look, and found that the kitchen was burning firewood, the ground was just swept with a layer of grout, the white walls on all sides were yellowed, and oil was everywhere, and the sanitation conditions were impossible to talk about.
And when Yang Yang walked to the other side of the playground, he noticed that there was a small earth slope behind the teaching building. A wall was built with stones for reinforcement to prevent the soil on the hillside from slipping in rainy days. However, the stone wall looks crumbling after a long time. God knows whether the next heavy rain will wash it down?
And if the wall is broken down, the soil flowing down from the hillside will rush directly to the place where students play between classes downstairs.
Yang Yang and Su Ye looked around. The harsh conditions here were far beyond their expectations.
Accompanied by village cadres and school leaders, Shen Jun took his colleagues around to take pictures, because after they visited the site and decided to aid in the construction of the school, they would immediately draw up a construction aid plan, make a budget, and publish it on the Internet for fundraising.
This time, because of Su Ye's pledge, they don't need to raise funds externally, but the process still needs to be followed, and it will still be announced to the public, but Su Ye's name will be withheld.
……
When Yang Yang and Su Ye returned to the playground, Shen Jun and others also came back.
"The conditions here are really bad." Yang Yang frowned.
But Shen Jun shook his head, "This place is considered good. According to them, there are worse places in their county than this place, so the county government has given the budget and funds to others first, and they have to be behind."
"Is there anything worse?" Su Ye was surprised.
She has lived in Beijing since she was a child. Even if she had heard of it before, it was only heard of it, and the photos she saw were just glimpses. It was only after field visits that she really felt the poverty here.
"I don't know about other places. Among the several schools we visited and helped to build, the conditions here are indeed relatively not the worst." Shen Jun shook his head and sighed.
"Every time we go to a place for inspection, we talents are more able to realize that manpower is limited, and there are too many people who need help, but our ability is so little, we can only do what we can, and we have a clear conscience."
Yang Yang and Su Ye looked at each other, and they both felt sorry for each other.
It is shallow to read on paper, and only when you actually come to the scene can you feel the poverty of the motherland.
"What are you going to do next?" Yang Yang asked with concern.
"After the on-site inspection, I will stay in the county, negotiate with the county leaders, and determine the preliminary plan as soon as possible. After that, we will select the site, invite the construction company to plan and design, and conduct bidding and acceptance of the project."
When Shen Jun said this, he looked at Su Ye, "Originally, after the preliminary plan came out, we should have raised funds online, but now that Ye Zi said that he would pledge, some steps were omitted in the middle. From the current point of view, 200 million should be enough."
Su Ye nodded, "That's good, if it's not enough, tell me."
Shen Jun smiled and nodded.
"Brother Jun, I heard that many elementary schools in mountainous areas are being withdrawn and merged. Is it true?" Yang Yang asked.
Before he came, he also did some homework, including learning about Shen Jun and his charity organization through Wei Zhen, and Shen Jun and Wei Zhen brothers also knew each other, so he confirmed that Shen Jun is indeed a kind person who is enthusiastic about charity.
But now, Yang Yang really wanted to know more about the situation.
"The situation you said is true, so there will be some private donations, and the school will be built, but it will be withdrawn and merged not long after, and the phenomenon of people going to empty buildings will appear. I think this is also a problem."
Yang Yang thinks so.
Kindness is worthy of recognition, but it is useless.
"Our situation is quite special, because we are connected with national charities, but we have no way to determine which ones will be withdrawn and merged, so we can only choose schools that will not be withdrawn and merged, and at the same time have this need, to ensure that every penny of our money is used where it is needed."
"For example, the school we see now, surrounded by several villages, is just one school. Over the past few decades, they have all studied here. We also had a preliminary understanding with the county. They promised that this place will never be withdrawn and merged. More importantly, the enrollment rate and enrollment rate of children here have reached [-]%, and almost no one drops out of school."
Yang Yang nodded again and again. He felt that Shen Jun's thinking was relatively mature, and they almost took into account all the issues that could be considered.
"Actually, we originally had another plan. We hoped to train the teachers of the aided schools, such as studying in schools in Beijing, or inviting well-known domestic teachers to the school to improve the level of teachers and improve the quality of teaching."
"That's good." Yang Yang and Su Ye nodded together.
Shen Jun shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Without funds, our fundraising channels are still relatively limited, and our resources in all aspects are also insufficient, so many ideas have no way to implement, so we can only take it step by step."
Yang Yang understood.
Manpower is always limited, and there will always be times when there is more than enough, but the most important thing is to do your best and have a clear conscience.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that he understood something.
Isn't Shen Jun's situation very similar to the situation he is facing now?
Why isn't Yang Yang facing such a predicament?
He wanted to help Liverpool, he wanted to show a better performance, but the result has never improved.
He was very anxious before, but the more anxious he was, the worse he was, and he was still under heavy pressure and burden.
But thinking about it now, it is true that as Shen Jun said, manpower is limited, so we can only take it step by step, do our best, have a clear conscience, maintain a normal heart, and let nature take its course, maybe it will be more able to regain our own state.
When he looked at Su Ye again, he suddenly felt that he seemed to have discovered another side of Su Ye.
He didn't know about Su Ye's pledge to donate to the school before, and she never said anything about it.
