"Old soldiers don't die?"

When Wei Lan first heard the phrase, she asked with some surprise, "are you going to make it a nationwide charity event?"

Li Mu nodded and said, "when I was in the United States, I told you that American society has been stable for hundreds of years, and the welfare system is relatively perfect, so their veterans in World War II have basically been placed properly, but our situation in China is quite special. After the Anti Japanese War, it was the liberation war for several years, two of which were in power In turn, many problems must not be taken into account. In addition, household registration statistics alone are difficult to improve. Later, there were various movements one after another. I don't know how many veterans of the Anti Japanese War returned home after the war. These people are likely to be scattered in villages and towns in the north and south of the world. Those veterans who are still alive may not live well. "

Wei Lan thought for a moment and said to Li Mu, "I know what you mean. There may be thousands of veterans of the Anti Japanese war. But you want to find those veterans who have no official records and no evidence. The workload is too large. If you want to work quickly and efficiently, you must have a large team Support. "

"That's right." Li Mu sighed: "the biggest problem is the team, and the operation mode of the team must adopt the way of volunteers, otherwise, this public welfare activity is difficult to really do."

Li Mu explained: "to do this kind of public welfare, we must let those people who really have the public interest participate in it. Only by paying salaries to recruit employees can we do public welfare. Therefore, my preliminary plan is to formulate a public welfare publicity plan, including the slogan, positioning and implementation plan of this public welfare activity. Then we need to find one who understands the publicity Our operation talents, let him promote our public welfare program to the whole society, recruit volunteers and collect information from the whole society at the same time. If we can have a volunteer team of at least ten people in each prefecture level city, our future work will be very good. "

Wei Lan asked: "if volunteers have them, what is the next specific implementation process? How to find veterans, how to confirm after finding them, and how to rescue them after confirming them, have you ever thought about that? "

Li Mu nodded and said, "I think there are two ways to find veterans. One is that we can release information to the whole society. Veterans and their families, friends and neighbors can contact us, and then we can send volunteers to check it. The other is that we can actively find veterans from point to face, for example, we have determined the identity of a veteran, and then we can pass the He came to know his army's serial number, fighting situation and comrades' information, and then followed the clues to find more surviving veterans. "

"as for how to help, I think for the time being, I myself, Makino science and technology, Taobao science and technology, and Alipay jointly set up a fund to care for veterans of the war of resistance against Japan. The initial funding is tentatively set at one hundred million yuan. Then we make some publicity materials that can impress people, promote them through various channels, attract social attention and create the momentum. Another charity dinner with the same theme will be held. Some entrepreneurs and stars will be invited to participate in the dinner, and then they will be called on to donate. "

Speaking of this, Li Mu couldn't help smiling and said: "in fact, you know, many celebrities and entrepreneurs do charity, the fundamental motivation is to change a good reputation. The premise of their decision on whether to donate is whether this event, or whether the donee has a certain social influence. If they have influence, many people will flock to donate, if not Li, maybe these people don't even bother to look at it, so if they want to donate money willingly, they must first make this public welfare project fire. "

Li Mu's later generations have seen too many such things, especially on Weibo, many people who meet difficulties send help messages on Weibo. Occasionally, some people who have been fired by the media will immediately have a large number of big V's come out to express their opinions and donate money. In Li Mu's view, some of them are just warm.

So, to get them to pay, you need to get the project hot enough first.

Later generations have some stars set up their own charity funds. Because of the influence of stars, a large number of celebrities, stars and entrepreneurs have been attracted to donate, as well as a large number of ordinary people to donate. Li Mu feels that his current social influence is greater than that of any star, so if he launches such a project, the whole society should be able to The donation enthusiasm of the meeting was mobilized.

So Li Mu said, "we can open another public account to raise money for the whole society. Everyone can donate money to this account, 10 yuan 8 yuan, 3 yuan 5 yuan, or even one piece 2 yuan. As long as everyone is willing to donate, it will help the public welfare."

"The operation of bank remittance is relatively troublesome." "A lot of people are not willing to donate, or the donation process is a bit cumbersome. When I went to school, I donated several times to the hope project. Every time, I had to go to the bank to queue up, fill in the remittance form, and I couldn't come down for several hours when I went there, which is very troublesome," said Wei Lan

Li Mu patted his forehead and said, "thanks to your reminding, I didn't think of this problem."

Li said: "in fact, this is easy to solve. I can cooperate with operators such as China Mobile and China Unicom to launch a SMS donation channel. As long as the mobile phone users send the donation amount to the designated number, they can directly deduct this part of the fee from the phone fee, and then let the operators settle with us on a regular basis.""At the same time, my Alipay can also open this service, set up a specialized Alipay account for the foundation, all Alipay users can contribute to this Alipay account, these two methods should be more convenient than bank transfer remittance."

"Wei Lan exclaimed:" all of a sudden come up with so many good ideas, I think you can really do this public welfare project

Finish saying, Wei Lan asks Li Mu again: "you haven't said, what kind of assistance are you going to give to the veterans who confirm their identity?"

Li Mu recalled the relevant information he had learned in his last life. It seems that in 2013, an authoritative organization made statistics. At that time, the number of veterans surviving in the country should be about 20000. Now, there are 10 years to 2013, and the number of veterans should be between 30000 and 40000.

Not all of the 30000-40000 people need help. According to what Li Mu once knew, the veterans of the people's Liberation Army who have not made any political mistakes and have no composition problems are basically taken good care of by the state. The other veterans who have been persecuted by various sports in the early years may be more difficult now. In addition, there are some veterans of the national army who stay in the mainland Soldiers may not have the opportunity to enjoy the same treatment as PLA veterans.

However, looking at these veterans from a modern perspective, no matter what army they came from, they have all shed blood for this nation in the Anti Japanese war. Such veterans must help as long as they are still alive and have difficulties.

From this perspective, it is estimated that about 20000 people need help.

Li Mu didn't know whether there was a minimum living standard policy or not, so he asked Wei Lan, "do you know what the average annual income of farmers is now?"

Wei Lan thought for a moment and said, "I've read the report before. It should be more than two thousand. It's more than five thousand in town."

Li Mu nodded slightly and said thoughtfully, "if we want to help 20000 veterans for a long time, each of them will be subsidized according to the per capita annual income in the countryside, then it will take about forty-five million yuan every year, if one hundred million yuan is taken out, it can support two years."

Wei Lan said: "if you spend 40 to 50 million yuan a year, the cost is really large. At present, the number of veterans living in the world is gradually decreasing, but the whole aid cycle will be about 20 years from now, so you must be moderate, do charity to leave a certain space for yourself, and do not do everything. If you do everything, you should not only carry this project In the end, if the society has other charity needs in the future, the public may also kidnap you morally and let you carry it to the end, and then your burden will be heavier and heavier. "

With that, Wei Lan sat cross legged in front of Li Mu and counted with her fingers: "I'll figure out how much you need for this project first. You see, let's roughly determine some data first, temporarily set the cycle as 20 years, assuming that 50 million yuan will be invested in the first year, and 5 million yuan will be invested in the last year. In the middle of these 18 years, the average rate of decline is constant. Then the sum of the head and tail is equal to 55 million yuan, 55 million times 10. Roughly speaking, this project needs about 550 million yuan in total. "

Li Mu looked at Wei Lan in amazement and asked her, "how did you figure it out? I don't seem to understand..."

Wei Lan smiled and said: "people who do engineering can do cost accounting, so the math is pretty good. I have a question for you. Do you know how much 1 + 2 + 3 is equal to when I add 100 all the time? "

Li Mu shakes his head: "give me a calculator, or give me a computer, I can run a code, or pull an excel and make a summation, but the mental calculation can't work out."

Wei Lan said with a smile: "you don't always use the thinking of programmers to do everything. You see, from 1 to 100, there are 100 numbers in total, and their increasing laws are unified. They are all plus 1, plus 1, plus 1. So we add the ending up. 1 + 100 is 101, 2 + 99 is 101, 3 + 97 is 101, and 50 + 51 is 101. So what's the total What about a combination of 101? "

Li Mu's eyes brightened and he blurted out: "group 50! I see, so from 1 to 100, the final result is 101 times 50, which is 5050, right? "

Wei Lan leaned over Li Mu's face and kissed him, praising him: "how clever!"

Li Mu said with a smile, "you are not me! It's so scientific of you to calculate this way! Please take my knee! "
