Chapter 735 Chinese Heart!
Chapter 735: Chinese Heart!
Hong Tao held back his smile and said to Xiaohan, "Sister-in-law, tell you the truth. You didn't expect this result in advance, but Brother Qiang had thought of it long ago!"
"You said Qiangzi had thought of it for a long time? Since he had thought of it, why do you still do this? This is not like Qiangzi's style. He will not implicate innocent people, and it is our own compatriots who are implicated!" Xiaohan asked in a defiant voice.
Hong Tao hurriedly smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be excited, listen to me finish my words. Although Brother Qiang has expected this situation to happen, whether you can get enough money from the US stock market circle is related to Brother Qiang's major affairs. You must not give up the whole plan because of this, that would be like slaughtering. Moreover, the subprime mortgage crisis will definitely break out, it's just a matter of time. When the subprime mortgage crisis breaks out on its own, the money invested by these compatriots in the US stock market will also become a bubble, and maybe the losses will be even heavier. Do you think so?"
Xiaohan had to admit this, nodded and said, "But I always feel uncomfortable in my heart, as if we were harming them! A Tao, think of a way to help them!"
Hong Tao laughed and said, "That's all there is to say! Brother Qiang has already thought about the way, and we have already made preparations. Brother Qiang means that all the losses of all our compatriots in the US stock market this time will be borne by us. The funds have been raised long ago. After a while, Uncle Hua will report the losses of each household, and we will immediately send money based on this data! In short, we must not let our compatriots shed a tear for the US stock market!"
After hearing Hong Tao's words, Xiaohan was stunned for a while, then couldn't help but slap Hong Tao heavily, and shouted in a sweet voice, "You little brat, you have already made a plan. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I've been sad for a long time!"
Hong Tao smiled wryly and said, "I thought Brother Qiang had told you, how could he know that Brother Qiang was so calm? I can't blame me!"
Xiaohan giggled and said with peace of mind, "That's fine, Qiangzi did not disappoint me!"
Hong Tao smiled and said, "Of course! When did Brother Qiang disappoint us? Haha..."
"Bang bang bang" A knock on the door sounded, and Hong Tao responded, "Come in!"
"Atao!" Uncle Hua led a few people and walked in with a stack of tables. "Atao, this is the result of our statistics. Alas, everyone's losses this time are heavy, and it's a total of billions of dollars! Damn the US stock market, it's just like eating people without spitting out bones!"
Hong Tao took the form from Uncle Hua's hand and looked through the pages carefully. Uncle Hua asked anxiously, "Atao, what are you going to do? Are you going to march and demonstrate with everyone to make the US government compensate us for our losses? Everyone has made the signs and banners. As long as you give the order, we will follow you now!"
"March and demonstration? Haha... Uncle Hua, do you think the US government will take care of us when we march and demonstration?" Hong Tao smiled and asked.
"Why doesn't the US government care about it? Our money is thrown into their stock market. They must take care of it!" Uncle Hua shouted angrily.
Hong Tao smiled and said, "Uncle Hua, you think the US government is too kind. Besides, stock market investment is a voluntary act. The US government did not force us. They have no responsibility to compensate us for our losses. They will not pay attention to our demonstrations!"
"A Tao, from my perspective, this is clearly a conspiracy of the US government. They are deliberately defrauding the hard-earned money of our Chinese. The US stock market is just their tool!" Uncle Hua's somewhat angry young man made Hong Tao feel a little amused.
However, in order not to let Uncle Hua and the others really go to the US government because of misunderstandings. The government caused trouble and caused greater trouble, Hong Tao hurriedly said, "Uncle Hua, don't think about it. This is impossible! You have suffered losses, and the American people have suffered even heavier losses. The Americans around you have also lost a lot this time, right?"
Uncle Hua nodded and said, "That's right! There is an employee of a securities company living next to me. She is an American. She almost jumped off the building yesterday."
Hong Tao smiled and said, "That's it! In fact, when it comes to losses, what we have lost is probably only one ten thousandth of the losses of others. The US government wants to cheat us overseas Chinese, so we can't cheat with the American people, right?"
Uncle Hua scratched his head awkwardly and said with a smile, "You said that, it seems that I really took it for granted..."
"President? We are different from Americans. After all, Americans are on their own territory. After losing money, they can still invest in relatives and friends. But we can't do it anymore. We are helpless in the United States. Without money, eating will become a problem." A middle-aged man next to Uncle Hua couldn't help but say anxiously.
Hong Tao glanced at him, smiled, and said, "Dong Guozhu, have you compensated too?"
The middle-aged man said with a bitter face, "I lost 30,000 US dollars in total, that's all my savings!"
Hong Tao was about to speak when another knock on the door rang. Hong Tao frowned slightly and said, "Come in!" After the door opened, Hong Tao was shocked. Uncle Lao was standing outside the door. Uncle Lao was old and no longer managed the restaurant business a long time ago. He said he wanted to hurry up and enjoy some afterglow, so he took his wife to travel all over the mountain. Hong Tao hadn't seen him for a while, and was shocked when he saw him suddenly appearing in front of him. He hurriedly stood up from the chair and said with a smile, "Uncle Lao, shouldn't you be a Maldives now? Why did you come back suddenly?"
Uncle Lao is the longest among Chinese in the United States and has a very high prestige. When he sees him, even Uncle Hua has to get up and give up his seat. Uncle Lao laughed a few times and said, "Where can I travel with such a big thing happen? So my wife and I booked the earliest plane and flew back." While saying that, Uncle Lao took out a bank card from his pocket and handed it to Hong Tao, saying, "I have run a restaurant in the United States for a lifetime, and I have a small savings. Take it and give it to everyone, save it first!"
"Brother Lao, this is not something you can do! This is your pension money, how can we use it? You... take it back quickly!" Uncle Hua was so moved that he almost burst into tears. He said repeatedly.
Uncle Lao tsk, stared at him and said, "I can't starve! At worst, I won't go on a trip anymore. I can't delay your granddaughter's college entrance examination. That's a big event for the rest of my life!"
"Brother Lao, I..." Uncle Hua didn't know what to say, with tears in his eyes, and his head full of white hair trembling constantly.
Uncle Lao looked at Hong Tao again and said, "I know that my power alone is very limited. However, we still have big guys! Not all Chinese people have lost money in the US stock market, and many people have not lost money. I will call on everyone to stand up and help those compatriots who have suffered losses! Everyone has high firewood, and I believe there is no hurdle in the world that cannot be overcome!"
After hearing this, Hong Tao smiled slightly, looked at Dong Guozhu, and said slowly, "Dong Guozhu, now you can see if you are helpless in the United States?"
"I..." Dong Guozhu was filled with mixed feelings and opened his mouth several times, but he couldn't speak.
Hong Tao smiled, handed the bank card to Uncle Lao, and said with a smile, "Uncle Lao, you should take back the money and continue traveling around the world with your aunt!"
When Uncle Lao heard this, he widened his eyes unwillingly and shouted, "What do you mean? Could it be that he looks down on your Uncle Lao and thinks it's too little?"
Hong Tao shook his head and said seriously, "Uncle Lao, you always have this intention. Even if there is only one dollar in this bank card, no one dares to think it is too little! After all, your intention is priceless!"
"Then why are you..." Uncle Lao asked in confusion.
Hong Tao smiled and said, "You ask me to understand your feelings, and you must understand my feelings, right? If I, Hong Tao, use your pension money, where can you put my face in? Don't worry, the Federation has been fully prepared and will bear all the losses for everyone. I hereby assure you that our Federation will compensate you for the billions of dollars you have lost in the US stock market!"
"Atao, you... are you saying true?" As soon as Hong Tao said, Uncle Hua, Dong Guozhu and others couldn't help but look surprised on their faces, and their eyes were even more full of disbelief. It was as if a big pie suddenly fell from the sky, and it happened to hit them into their mouths.
Even Uncle Lao was moved and asked, "A Tao, this is billions of dollars, aren't you kidding?"
Hong Tao smiled and said, "You can make any joke, but you can't make such jokes!" As he said that, he looked at Uncle Hua and Dong Guozhu and the others and said, "Uncle Hua, do you know why I asked you to select a few representatives? I am planning to form a compensation committee with you to be fully responsible for the issuance of compensation! Now the funds are in place. If you are fast enough, maybe all your losses will be compensated before tonight!"
When Hong Tao said this, Uncle Hua couldn't stop crying. He held Hong Tao's hand tightly and said tremblingly, "A Tao, you... you saved us all!"
Hong Tao smiled and said, "Isn't this the purpose of establishing the Federation? The Federation was established to help everyone solve their problems! If I, Hong Tao, can't even do this, why should I be the president?"
"Boy, you can do it, you're good! I did not read you wrongly! Hahaha..." Uncle Lao said with a big smile at Hong Tao.
Hong Tao laughed and said, "Uncle Lao, it's a pity that you interrupted your journey. You hurried back, which has swept your interest!"
Uncle Lao's head shook like a rattle and said repeatedly, "What are you happy to sweep away? I am even happier! I came back and saw your performance this time, I was happier than my ten trips around the world! Haha..."
Hong Tao nodded and said to Uncle Hua, "Don't just pay attention to thank me, but also our Chinese government. Although we are no longer Chinese, the Chinese government has not forgotten everyone. A large part of the compensation we have given to everyone was raised by the Chinese government for everyone. I think Ambassador Xiaohan, everyone knows her? She is here. If you don't believe it, you can ask her in person!"
Uncle Hua and others' eyes suddenly gathered on Xiaohan. Xiaohan didn't expect Hong Tao to say this suddenly, and turned to look at him in surprise. Hong Tao leaned into Xiaohan's ear and whispered, "This is what Brother Qiang means!"
Xiaohan nodded, pursed his lips and said crisply, "Comrades, although everyone's nationalities are different now, everyone is the descendants of Yan and Huang, and they are all brothers and sisters! Seeing that you have suffered losses in the United States, the Chinese government and the Chinese people cannot sit idly by! These are all things we should do, just like you have not forgotten China, and China has not forgotten you. If you have time in the future, everyone is welcome to go home and have a walk! Our motherland is different from the past. After you go back and see, you will definitely be proud of our motherland!"
Although Xiaohan's words are simple, they are powerful and warm. As soon as Xiaohan finished speaking, Uncle Lao couldn't help but interrupt and said, "The first stop for my trip is to return to China. I haven't returned to China for decades. This time I can't believe my eyes. Our country is so beautiful now, no worse than the United States! Young and old men, if you have time, go home and take a look. It won't disappoint you! The people in my hometown are enthusiastic! Hahaha..."
The words of Xiaohan and Uncle Lao completely aroused everyone's homesickness. Amid the sighs, Uncle Hua couldn't help but shed tears, and nodded repeatedly and said, "Go back, you must go back if you have time!"
"Yes, yes, the country has not forgotten us, how can we forget our country! I have thought about it. After this time, I will go back to China to develop and never give it to his mother Americans again!" Dong Guozhu slapped his thighs violently and shouted loudly.
Xiaohan giggled and said, "Okay! If Brother Dong really decides to return to China to develop, I think the people of the motherland will warmly welcome you!"
Uncle Lao laughed and said to Hong Tao, "Atao, do you know why we overseas Chinese are so excited when we talk about going home?"
Hong Tao nodded slowly, muttering with a solemn expression, "I know! Because everyone, like me, has a Chinese heart that will never fade!"
"Okay! As long as our Chinese heart does not change color for a day, we will never be unlucky for our hometown! Young and old men, this time the country has not forgotten us. When we need to care the most, we have brought us warmth. Everyone should remember it! If the country is useful in our place in the future, whoever shrinks back will not deserve to be a descendant of Yanhuang!" Uncle Lao shouted at everyone with excitement.
