Xiao Yu pondered for a moment after hearing Song Hushan's words and said, "Uncle Song, the day is good today. If there are no issues, let's open it up today!"

Song Hushan, who was driving at that moment, was surprised when he heard Xiao Yu's words and quickly replied, "Xiao Yu, today Isn't this too hasty Your uncles have been waiting for the opening to give you a grand celebration!

Xiao Yu understood what Song Hushan meant but he had his own thoughts.

"Haha! Uncle Song, there's no need to go all out for an opening ceremony. We're launching a fund that aims to save lives and help the world; we don't intend to make a spectacle of it or profit from it. My intention was always to救治更多的人 through this fund!" Xiao Yu chuckled lightly as he spoke to Song Hushan.

For Xiao Yu, establishing this fund was entirely spontaneous. He had initially planned to donate the money directly since he considered it ill-gotten gains for him. However, Song Hushan's advice prompted him to set up a fund instead.

Furthermore, he didn't intend to seek sponsorships or donations widely. All he wanted was to do his part diligently and welcome any willing donors with open arms.

Though the more societal donations they received, the more people they could help, there were also downsides. The more funds they accepted, the more constraints would be placed upon them.

Xiao Yu acted based on his true intentions, so he did not want others to criticize or interfere with how he ran this fund, as doing so might alter its purpose over time.

He wanted a pure and unbiased fund where all donors' contributions would be made discreetly without any grand announcements or publicity.

If someone recognized the value of such actions and contributed accordingly, that was fine; their donation would be accepted. If they tried to use donations for self-promotion, no matter how much they donated, he would not need it!

If Wan Sheng Tang's brand were to become a tool for others' fame or gain, he would be considered a great sinner in the Xiao family.

From the start, his vision for the Wan Sheng Tang Disabled Children Medical Fund was clear: no activities, just straightforward aid. All funds, after covering necessary wages and expenses for the fund's staff, electricity, water, and rent, would be used exclusively for medical assistance!

The applicants seeking help from this fund would receive thorough supervision throughout their treatment process, and the money wouldn't go to the patients' families but directly to the hospitals where they were treated.

Xiao Yu's goal was to ensure that every penny of the donated money would be spent where it should be used. Although his aspirations might seem somewhat naive, and he had no knowledge about how funds operate, he knew that by controlling certain critical areas, he could achieve his desired outcome.

After hearing from Song Hushan about the situation of charitable funds in China, Xiao Yu made this decision.

He did not want these lifesaving funds to be misused as a tool for personal gain by some individuals or have the nature of the fund change. After all, it was under the banner of Man Sheng Hall.

Xiao Yu wanted a clean and disinterested fund that would serve its intended purpose without any ulterior motives. Otherwise, he preferred not to establish such a fund at all. He could control himself even if he couldn't control others.

Moreover, every penny of his fund should benefit the people who needed it most rather than being squandered by those who did not need it.

"Xiao Yu, you must think this through! This is a golden opportunity to achieve fame and success!" Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Song Hushan addressed him seriously.

Currently, Xiao Yu was no different from them. Whether he belonged to the Crown Prince Party or was an 'official son,' everyone needed a career that supported their status. For instance, Song Hushan's Huashan Group, Ye Fei's Guang'an Club, and Zhang Dahai being in charge of the Shendian branch of the Thirteenth Division.

If one were just another idle 'official son' without any accomplishments, they would be looked down upon by others within this circle. After all, besides relying on their family background, power and wealth were what mattered most in this circle.

But apart from a small clinic, Xiao Yu had nothing else. While he was wealthy, his money paled in comparison to the vast resources wielded by people of his status; for ordinary folks, his wealth might be awe-inspiring, but to someone like him, it amounted to mere pocket change.

"Haha, Uncle Song, don't you know me I don’t need fame and success! All I want is a clear conscience!" Upon hearing what Song Hushan said, Xiao Yu chuckled softly.

Song Hushan observed Xiao Yu, noting the seriousness in his smile. He silently nodded in approval.

Soon after, their car entered an underground parking lot of a building nearby. The fund established by Xiao Yu was located on the 15th floor of this building.

The building was newly constructed and situated near the fifth ring road of Beijing. Though it wasn't in the city center, Xiao Yu was quite satisfied with its location.

After all, his fund aimed to carry out charitable work rather than run a business, so there was no need for such an advantageous location. Furthermore, the rent here was relatively cheaper, and the savings from this could help救助更多的人。

Xiao Yu and Song Hushan arrived at the fifteenth floor. As soon as Xiao Yu stepped out of the elevator, he saw several gilded characters on the opposite wall that read 'Wansheng Hall Disabled Children Medical Fund'. Below these characters was a reception desk where two women in their twenties, dressed in uniforms, were smiling and standing there.

"Welcome! Mr. Song" The moment Xiao Yu and his companions stepped out of the elevator lobby, both women greeted them at the same time.

Xiao Yu nodded upon seeing these two women; their attitude towards him was very satisfactory. Most people who came here for help were those who couldn’t afford medical expenses. A warm smile and a good attitude might seem insignificant to some, but they could make underprivileged patients feel warmth from the bottom of their hearts.

Although these women had never met Xiao Yu before, Song Hushan had visited several times, so they all knew him. Moreover, every time Song Hushan came, their boss would accompany him throughout and treat him with great respect.

Hence, even if they didn't know the background of Song Hushan, they understood that he wasn’t an ordinary person.

The fifteenth floor of this building was a large open space. Apart from several pillars in the middle, there was nothing else. However, during renovation, it had been divided into one large room and several small rooms.

As they walked along, Xiao Yu saw meeting rooms, manager's offices, supervisor’s office, deputy general manager's office, and general manager's office.

The large space was an expansive open-plan office where dozens of people were working.

Xiao Yu looked at these employees; most of them were women with only a few men scattered among the desks.

"Hello Chairman Song!"

"Hello Mr. Song!"

When these people saw Xiao Yu and Song Hushan approaching, they all greeted Song Hushan. Most of them had previously worked in the Tiger Mountain Group and knew this boss of theirs.

Although they didn’t know his background, they were aware that he had a significant backing. Even though their headquarters here in the capital wasn't as flashy as some local companies, they all felt honored to work at the Tiger Mountain Group.

Some of these people had also worked in local branches and knew how much backbone the Tiger Mountain Group had. Although it didn’t provoke trouble proactively, it never shrank from any challenge either.

Only a limited number of people in the Hu Shan Group knew about Song Hushan's background, while others merely speculated that he had connections reaching to the heavens but were clueless as to what his actual background was.

The fact that Song Hushan had such extensive connections could be inferred from how no one ever came to investigate or cause trouble in any of their branches across various regions or even at headquarters in Beijing. Additionally, local officials always gave a green light for anything related to the Hu Shan Group.

In today's society, if you were to start a company—especially one like the Hu Shan Group—you would have endless troubles unless you had proper connections.

Moreover, as an industry leader with significant interests involved, it was unlikely that the group’s boss could remain unaffected if they were just a regular person. They probably would have been devoured long ago!

No one who came to the Hu Shan Group—no matter who they were—had ever received a personal reception from their boss. Even those who were regarded as legendary figures never had the honor of being personally greeted by Song Hushan; it was always his vice president stepping in.

Even when merely a vice president extended greetings, these visitors felt incredibly honored. A simple statement like ‘our boss asked me to greet you on his behalf’ would make them tremendously excited!

All of this made Song Hushan seem like an enigmatic and powerful figure in the eyes of Hu Shan Group's employees.

Consequently, when these workers saw him arrive, they all stood up and greeted him respectfully.

"Is your boss here" asked Song Hushan to one of the employees.

In recent days, he had often visited this place, so he recognized some of them. Moreover, during his selection process, he personally interviewed each candidate and conducted a brief background check on them.

Xiao Yu, after all, was primarily a doctor and not very adept at management; thus, he sought out people who could be trusted to handle things effectively for him.

"Yes, please wait a moment. I’ll go get the boss!" said one of the employees excitedly upon hearing Song Hushan speak to him, then hurried off towards an adjacent office.

After a short while, this employee emerged from that room, with a woman in her thirties following closely behind.

This woman was around thirty-two or three years old, with a delicate oval face, willow-leaf eyebrows, and eyes that were small yet expressive. She had thin lips, shoulder-length hair, wore light makeup, and had fair skin; a well-fitted suit accentuated her neat appearance. (To be continued...)em to do so.
