Chen Guangbiao is a billionaire with billions of assets, and he has also generously donated more than 2 billion yuan to domestic charities.
However, despite donations of billions of RMB, the successful entrepreneur suddenly disappeared from public view overnight.
When he reappeared, he was dressed in old clothes, wearing a straw hat and holding a scythe, working in the fields with his family. The mysterious appearance of this figure, known as China's richest man, has attracted widespread attention.
Chen Guangbiao has made a name for himself for his philanthropy, but he has also been embroiled in various controversies. What kind of ups and downs has he experienced in the past ten years?
Chen's father and Chen's mother are ordinary farmers, and they have to raise a whole five children, which puts a lot of pressure on their lives. When Chen Guangbiao was four years old, his family was extremely poor, and he witnessed an older brother and an older sister die of starvation, which shocked him greatly and made him determined to get out of poverty.
At the age of ten, Chen Guangbiao, who was still a child, began to start a small business on his own, showing his firm determination. By the age of 17, he had become a rare 10,000-yuan household in the township, with a net worth of 20,000 yuan, which proved that his determination was not false.
At the age of 28, Chen Guangbiao saw a business opportunity and founded his first company. In 2000, he established Jiangsu Huangpu Renewable Resources Utilization Center, which brought his career to a new peak.
Chen Guangbiao started his hand at small business at the age of 10 and did not open the company until he was 28 years old, and he has not taken any shortcuts in the past few decades.
The poverty in his heart was like a heavy mountain, and his origin did not give him any support. In the pursuit of wealth, Chen Guangbiao can only rely on himself, which is completely different from many entrepreneurs who claim to be self-made, in fact, they have connections and background behind them.
While striving to develop his career, Chen Guangbiao does not forget to continue to learn, which is a rare quality.
When he was young, in addition to working hard to earn money, Chen Guangbiao also concentrated on studying hard. He decided to embark on entrepreneurship in earnest, when he was one of the few college students of his time.
Chen Guangbiao has already held the position of CEO of the company, but he still decided to apply for the postgraduate examination of Nanjing University Business School and successfully graduated with an EMBA degree from Nanjing University, which shows that he attaches great importance to learning.
Maintaining a positive attitude towards learning is not an easy task, but what is even more commendable is that Chen Guangbiao has always had a kind heart.
The fact that Chen Guangbiao was only ten years old was already committed to helping others is indisputable.
Although Chen Guangbiao was still young at that time, he was able to earn two or three cents a day by carrying water and selling it by himself. Later, when he saw that the classmates around him couldn't afford to pay for their books, he didn't hesitate to help them and bear their book costs, without expecting anything in return.
As he grew older, Chen's wealth and the scope of his assistance grew. He has donated up to 2 billion yuan to help more than 700,000 families in extreme poverty lift themselves out of poverty. Such generosity is also extremely rare on a global scale.
Chen Guangbiao took a photo of ** at the scene of a charity event, in which he stood in front of a "wall" built with 100,000 yuan of banknotes.
The total amount of funds for the formation of this wall amounted to 33 million yuan, in addition to a large number of checks. According to statistics, in this charity event alone, charitable donations amounted to 43.16 million yuan.
Chen Guangbiao's donation of so much money to people in need was originally a commendable act of kindness, but after the release of **, he immediately became the target of criticism from netizens.
Except for a very small number of people who support his good deeds, most netizens think that he is showing off his wealth, and even began to question Chen Guangbiao's original intention of doing charity.
With the gradual fermentation of **, all walks of life have also joined in the "carnival" against Chen Guangbiao, and they all regard it as a big deal.
There are ** allegations that Chen Guangbiao was accused of fraudulent donations, and there are also ** questions about whether Chen Guangbiao's company has illegal business activities. In addition, there is also a ** article that states that although Chen Guangbiao showed a large amount of banknotes, he will actually only donate a small part of them.
Mr. Chen's reputation plummeted, and people almost unanimously condemned him for his philanthropic actions, accusing him of using them to seek fame and fortune.
Chen Guangbiao is well aware of the malicious speculation of the outside world, and although he has been misinterpreted and questioned, he still insists on not giving up his philanthropy.
When netizens' malicious attacks on him reached their peak, Chen Guangbiao donated materials worth 23 million yuan to Yushu and built 46 Hope Primary Schools for the local area.
Chen Guangbiao donated 10 million cash and 5,000 computers to education in remote areas of China, such as Xinjiang, Qinghai, and other places.
Chen Guangbiao donated about 12.7 billion yuan in supplies, including 87 million in cash and 150,000 sets of down jackets, etc.
Chen Guangbiao has never stopped on the road of philanthropy. However, the malicious controversy of the outside world hurt him, and gradually, he was no longer so high-profile, and even disappeared from public view directly.
After China's richest man quietly left, the so-called "sober netizens" who used to abuse Chen Guangbiao for fun and speculate about his charity motives with dark psychology gradually stopped scolding and stopped paying attention to the matter.
As far as philanthropy is concerned, there was no doubt that Chen Guangbiao was the number one in China at the time, and yet, even so, he was still attacked by the best of the best, and it is ironic that entrepreneurs who are wealthier than him and who are not keen on philanthropy can receive a lot of gratitude for their occasional acts of kindness.
What is touching is that even though Chen Guangbiao rarely appears spontaneously in the public eye, he still silently sticks to his original beliefs.
After the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, Chen Guangbiao personally went to the worst places in Wuhan to serve as a volunteer, and donated hundreds of tons of rice and vegetables, as well as millions of masks, 50,000 sets of protective clothing and goggles.
After the torrential rain in Henan, Chen Guangbiao once again generously donated 50 million yuan to help the people in the affected areas rebuild their homes and get rid of their predicament as soon as possible. Chen Guangbiao
