v2 Chapter 248: Wendy Children's Charity Relief Fund

The next day, the plane stopped in San Jose, California.

While Henry ordered someone to send Helen's luggage home, he took her directly to the hospital to visit the Bossacs and the baby.

The American custom of giving gifts to babies is different from China in three points: first, the gift is sent before the baby is born; second, the gift is designated by the baby’s parents in advance; third, the gift is not directly delivered to the baby himself But to a good friend of the baby’s parents.

In addition, Americans also have a fixed name to call their baby-shower ceremony: Baby-Shower (ie baby shower, which means to bathe in the happiness of blessings and gifts)!

Henry participated in the Baby-Shower prepared by the Bossacks for the baby three months ago. The location is in John Chambers's house. As for the baby's name, it is Wendy!

At that time, Mrs. Bossak was pregnant in July, with a big belly sitting on the middle chair, surrounded by mountains of gifts and a group of relatives and friends! As Mrs. Boss opened the gift, she read the greeting card on the gift in front of everyone. The greeting card was filled with blessings. When Mrs. Bossak read it, her face was filled with deep happiness...

Henry participated in this kind of activity for the first time, and found the scene very warm! This is much better than after the baby is born, relatives and friends come to congratulate in installments. Because at that time, the mother who was overworked by childbirth and taking care of the child needed rest most. The repeated visits of friends would only increase her fatigue!

...

Henry and Helen soon came to the hospital where Mrs. Possac gave birth. Because they knew the ward number, there was no need to ask the hospital staff! Five or six minutes later, Henry and Helen met the Posacks and Wendy!

The faces of the Bossacks were full of smiles and happiness was written on them. Little Wendy was lying in the cradle, sleeping quietly!

Henry put the carnations on the counter next to the bed and congratulated the couple. "Teacher Boss and Aunt Lerner, congratulations! Oh, look. Little Wendy is so cute. She looks like Le Aunt Na! When Wendy grows up, she must be like Aunt Lerner, a big beauty!!"

Aunt Lerner couldn't help laughing when she heard this. It seems very happy.

"Teacher Bossack, I plan to give Little Wendy a present!" Henry turned his head to look at Professor Bossack.

Lerner interjected at this moment. Said: "Last Baby-Shower, didn't you give us a music box?"

"Hehe, yes. I gave a gift! But who stipulates that only the first gift can be given?" Henry smiled. Said, "That's it. I asked someone to set up a children's charity relief fund in the name of Little Wendy. It is used to help children in need!"

Henry looked at them and said, "The more people the Wendy Children's Charity Relief Fund helps, the more people it can help Wendy?" He paused. Henry asked, "Mr. Bossack and Aunt Lerner, I now give the Wendy Children's Charity Relief Fund as a gift to you. Will you still refuse?"

When the Bossacks heard this, how could they refuse? He immediately agreed.

After they agreed, they asked the Wendy Children's Charity Relief Fund how much money is currently on the books, and Henry told them that there were 100 million US dollars!

When the Bossacks heard this, although they also had money, they were slightly shocked in their hearts!

Professor Bossack said: "Henry, I am Wendy, oh no... I should thank you for the children who are about to be rescued!"

"Whatever you are polite, I should do this! There are many poor children in such a developed area as the United States, let alone those backward and poor countries. As far as I know, more than 4 million people die of starvation in Africa every year due to disease. And there are not a few people who die!! US$100 million is actually not much at all. Maybe it won’t take many years. I will let people develop Africa so that they can get rid of poverty and become rich! There is a saying in China, “Give people how to get rich.” It is better to teach people how to fish! It means that it is better to teach them how to fish than to give them fish to eat!"

"Of course, the most pitiful are the African children. They will be thrown away if they can't be supported at home, and they will even be harmed! The Global Online Africa reporter once sent back several photos of African children. After reading them, It's really sad... Oh, that skinny look, there is only one bone frame left. Looking back, the impression is still very deep!" Henry said, his tone couldn't help but choke.

After hearing what Henry said, the Bossacs couldn't help being silent. After a while, Professor Bossac's eyes flashed with determination, and then said to Henry: "Henry, Cisco's current development is on the right track. I plan to quit Cisco and specialize in charity in the future!!!" After speaking, Boss looked at his wife.

At this time, Lerner smiled slightly at her husband Posak: "Oh, it seems we coincide, I think so too!" Then, Lerner looked at Henry and said, "Henry, in the future, our couple will quit. Cisco, instead, concentrate on managing the Wendy Children’s Charity Relief Fund! There are so many miserable children in the world, and they may be looking forward to God’s helping hand to save them. Although we are not God, we can give them a little bit. Silky warmth and hope! I feel that doing charity is a matter of urgency, and it is also a great job. We will like this kind of work very much!"

When Henry heard this, he couldn't help being stunned. He didn't know what to say. Should he persuade them to stay at Cisco or encourage them to do charity? Henry was silent for a moment. Cisco can do without them, but the children who have suffered so much need them. The Bossacks are doing good deeds, and they should encourage them! ! !

"Oh, what else can I say... I think, no matter what I say, I can't stop you! At this moment, I should admire you and support you! Teacher Bossack and Aunt Lerner, you can do charity with confidence Right~lightnovelpub.net~ Cisco will not let it crash if I am here!"

The Bossacs glanced at each other and nodded.

At present, the Possacks hold 4% of Cisco's shares, and their annual dividends are more than 60 million U.S. dollars. Coupled with their previous savings and cashed out some of their shares, their deposits are less than 1 billion U.S. dollars. So much money is enough for them to do charity for a long time. In addition, the charity fund can also be used for investment. It operates well and can make a lot of money every year!

When Henry finally left, he reminded them: "If you are doing charity, come to me if you are short of money. Don't sell the shares of Cisco for the time being! If you want to sell, you have to wait until the stock price reaches the highest price before you sell! Huh? At least four years have passed..."

The emergence of Henry will inevitably lead to the advancement of the Internet bubble, and it may not be necessary to wait for the Internet bubble to occur in 2000. Henry predicted that it will be between 1996 and 1999. Once Clinton is elected President of the United States, Henry will begin to pay attention. At this moment, he is aware of the stock market and if there is any sign, he will cash out in advance.

The Bossacks thought for a while, and they nodded their heads in response to Henry's trust: "Okay!"
