Chapter 434: Chapter 434 Everything has Changed_1

After a long time, someone finally spoke in the group chat.

"Wang Ye, you’re not joking, are you?"

Apparently, everyone was still reluctant or didn’t dare to believe that Wang Ye could donate a million US dollars to the school.

Such an amount was absolutely astronomical to all their classmates!

Of course, Wang Ye didn’t just come up with the figure on a whim, he had given it some thought.

Their high school was a provincial key school and was quite large.

There were nearly two thousand new students each year!

Wang Ye clearly remembered that when he was in Senior One, there were over a hundred students in his class, and in Year One alone there were eighteen such classes...

Of nearly two thousand new students, fewer than three hundred students scored above the admission score and were so-called "par-value" students, among which Wang Ye was one!

The par-value students would only have to pay little more than two hundred CNY in educational miscellaneous fees each year.

The remaining sixteen or seventeen hundred students didn’t meet the admission score, but their grades weren’t too bad either.

If they wanted to get into this key provincial high school, they needed to pay a high "sponsorship fee," ranging from three thousand to tens of thousands. The more points they fell short of the admission score, the more money they had to pay. These students were called "high-price" students...

Fortunately, this sponsorship fee was a one-time payment made at admission in Year One, with no more to pay in Years Two and Three.

Of course, most of the high-price students didn’t miss the admission score by much. Their parents, feeling that their children’s academic performance was satisfactory, gritted their teeth and paid the sponsorship fee, hoping their children would get into a key high school and hopefully get into a university in the future.

Therefore, most high-price students only paid sponsorship fees of around three to five thousand, with very few paying in tens of thousands.

However, looking at it, the school seemed to be quite wealthy.

Each year, just from sponsorship fees, if we calculated an average of five thousand per student, that would amount to nearly seventy-eight million CNY!

This money was also the most significant source of funds for the high school.

As for the financial appropriation from the county, it could only be described as a drop in the bucket, better than nothing...

Perhaps some would question, since the school collected so much money each year, how come it didn’t have a decent playground? Where did the money go?

You have to understand that the school fell under the jurisdiction of the county. The county was so poor, and there were so many places that needed money, even many staff members didn’t get their salaries.

This money naturally wouldn’t be swallowed wholly by the school!

Perhaps Wang Ye’s parents’ salaries came partly from these funds...

...

Wang Ye’s thought of donating was, of course, not to show off his wealth in front of his classmates.

More importantly, he genuinely wanted to do something for his alma mater.

He loved playing basketball in high school, and he utterly detested the school’s run-down playground!

Because it was full of craters, while playing basketball, Wang Ye hadn’t been spared from twisting his ankles...

Now that he had the ability, why not contribute some money to do something for his younger schoolmates? That would be good, right?

One million US dollars, which converted into CNY is over eight million, should be enough to build a decent sports stadium.

For the remaining money, let’s have the school build a few more dormitories.

The shabby dormitory buildings at the school should’ve been demolished and rebuilt a long time ago...

"Of course, I’m not joking. Everything will be sorted out after the new year. Contributing as much as possible to the alma-mater, after all, I lived there for three years," Wang Ye responded with a smile.

Everyone was silent again.

As much as possible...

Everyone had just graduated high school a year and a half ago, and yet Wang Ye was already able to "contribute as much as possible" by donating a million US dollars to the school!

Yet on their end, even taking a hundred CNY out of their pockets would be quite difficult....

"That’s great. I don’t think any of our graduated classmates have ever donated to our school. Now, in our class, in our grade, someone is donating! This is a matter of pride for all of us," Zhang Xiaoxi said.

She was genuinely happy.

Not only because the school had received a massive donation, but also for Wang Ye, and even for herself.

This shows that her judgment was indeed spot on. The boy she once liked truly stood out amongst the others!

The only pity was, he already had a girlfriend...

After briefly chatting, Wang Ye said goodbye to everyone and logged off.

Honestly, getting entangled in these trivial matters felt like a waste of time for Wang Ye.

Chatting with old classmates, he couldn’t find the feeling he once had, as there were not many common topics anymore....

Wang Ye found helplessly that it wasn’t his classmates who had changed, but him.

When his parents came home at night, Wang Ye didn’t mention his plan to donate to the school.

Because they probably wouldn’t accept such a thing....

He planned to sort everything out quietly before leaving, and when his parents found out, he would already be back in Moscow.

...

In the next two days, Wang Ye was dragged around by his parents to visit relatives.

The family of three had agreed on a unified story: they only told others that Wang Ye had made some money from a small business, but not much.

As for the car he drove, they tried to avoid discussing it, but if the relatives pressed for answers, they would just say it was borrowed from a friend.

Despite this, Wang Ye inevitably became the person who had "made a name for himself" in the eyes of their relatives!

When having a meal with relatives, Wang Ye finally didn’t have to sit at the "kids’ table" anymore but could sit at the adults’ table.

At the dining table, their conversation revolved around Wang Ye....

...

Although he felt a little uncomfortable, overall, Wang Ye had a pleasant time coming home this time.

But not too far away from him, Ruan Xiaozhu was not so happy....

On the second day she arrived home, her father had a conversation with her about her future development.

"You’ll be graduating college in a few months, and when that happens, hurry back. I’ve already had someone find you a job here, in the capital of the province. It’s definitely a good job. For your work, I’ve put myself out there and asked many of my connections!"

Ruan Xiaozhu’s father said to her with a proud face.

Had this happened six months ago, there wouldn’t have been any problem, because this was the "path" Ruan Xiaozhu had determined when she went abroad.

Go to a prestigious university abroad, get a degree, then return to China for a good job.

Many of Ruan Xiaozhu’s classmates followed this path.

However, now, the situation had changed. Because of Wang Ye, Ruan Xiaozhu was planning not to return to China....

Kidding aside, her "cousin" is now very successful, of course, she, as his "cousin" could also get some benefits.

In Moscow, two companies were under her control, she drove luxury cars and could buy luxury brands whenever she wanted!

If she returned to China, she would definitely lose all of this....
