06868 - Life Lessons

According to the rules, when a child reaches his full age, he will no longer be able to get free supplies from the orphanage.Although some schools with a little condition will support the older children for a period of time during the actual operation, this extra support usually does not exceed one year at most, and the 19-year-old should generally still be in college.

Although you can apply for bursaries from the school, and you can get scholarships if you have good grades, but if you can earn other income and have enough life experience to use your limited income to make your life as comfortable as possible, you will definitely feel more secure.

Those lessons that Aura offers are designed to give children that peace of mind at the beginning of adulthood.

These classes are not empty at all, they all use cases to tell the children 'what to do in this situation', 'how to do it is relatively better', 'how to do it, although the result is not very good, but it can be considered to solve the problem' 'absolutely Can't do it'.

For example, how to select the best quality and most cost-effective items among the discounted items; how to avoid the trap of using complex calculation methods to claim the name of discount, but the price is actually higher than the daily price.

Another example is to weave cute little pendants and decorations with simple materials such as thread and bamboo strips, and sell them in the online store of Huiguangyuan. Whoever makes the things sold will get a share.

Although some buyers may buy out of pity for children because they know the background of the Huiguang online store, but more people still take a fancy to the item itself.

For long-term business, unilateral sympathy will definitely not work. Only when things are really good, and the buyer group will be stable when you get what you are satisfied with and at the same time satisfy your kindness.

There was also a buyer who especially liked a certain ornament, sent materials to Huiguang, and customized an item for the child who made that ornament.

Buyer: "Just follow my design drawings and use the materials I sent to make this. It must be made by the person who made the ornament I bought before, and cannot be replaced. If that person is busy recently, the production time will be longer It doesn’t matter, if there is any material missing in the middle, tell me, and I will send it again. I paid the customization fee first, and if the finished product satisfies me, I will pay more.”

Later, the rich second-generation buyer who asked for customization became a famous designer, and the child who took on the customization job could always perfectly transform his design into reality. The two worked as partners in the buyer's family company .

The family company had a serious struggle for power for a while, which made everyone in the company panic. They wanted to win them over, and none of the parties wanted to offend them, but the two of them lived comfortably and affluently throughout the whole process.Until the new power is determined, the two of them still sit firmly as chief technicians.

06869-Treatment

If Huiguang's children want to continue selling their own handicrafts after they grow up, they can't put them in the orphanage's online store, they have to open another one themselves.In principle, it is not allowed to advertise that you are from an orphanage in a newly opened personal online store, but familiar buyers know it through private communication, so they know it.

Huiguang and many other orphanages emphasize when teaching children that 'don't rely on selling misery in exchange for benefits', 'that kind of benefits are only temporary, and it is too easy to provoke backlash', 'only when you stand up, can you grasp the real benefits. Benefits that belong to oneself and cannot be taken away by others'.

GLOW's teacher and non-teacher staff sometimes blur the lines.For example, the kitchen staff, when they were first recruited, the hospital did not tell them that it would involve the opening of classes, but if any kitchen staff is particularly good at a certain aspect, such as being good at buying fresh vegetables and making small snacks, then they will also be treated. This will add courses—of course, the salary will be adjusted accordingly—and if the staff who originally opened a certain course resign, then the corresponding course may also be closed.

This is the case for many daily courses of Glory. It is to find a suitable teacher before starting the class, instead of finding the teacher after the course is set.Only courses such as law and self-defense skills are recruited by professionals.

Dean Wu: "Children learn academic knowledge in school. The courses in the school want to teach children life. In fact, the stable operation of the school means that the school has a comprehensive ability to live. We adults only Just need to share the skills of how we live with our kids.”

Dean Wu: "When selecting employees, we try our best to choose those who love life and are good at life, so that children can imitate and learn. But in our business, we focus on public welfare. It is impossible to make a lot of money. There are many and complicated things to do. It often attracts doubts and complaints, so the number of people who are willing to come has always been limited. It can only be said that this type of institution can be maintained, but it will be very difficult to pay more attention to it.”

Me: "The remuneration should still be raised. It is a virtue to do good deeds without asking for rewards, but it should not be treated as a matter of course. It is two different things from the parties not repaying and the beneficiaries not repaying. I will never let me do things for me. Even if the other person is my fan, even if he will be so happy because he did something for me that he doesn't care about the reward, I will pay him handsomely."

Me: "Doing things out of good intentions and doing things for profit, as long as the results of the things are consistent, then they should be encouraged. Some rich people, companies, and celebrities donate charitable money every year mainly for tax reduction, reputation, and for their own families. It doesn’t matter if the product is advertised, as long as the money is actually in place, the beneficiary can cooperate with them to make a show. The exchange of interests, especially the exchange of interests that achieves a win-win situation, is far more stable than kindness without backup.”

Me: "Of course, those guys who brag about donating but don't donate or donate less must be exposed. Those who eat the king's meal must be beaten. We must strongly suppress unfair events as long as the proceeds are not paid."

06870 - Not suitable for commercialization

Dean Wu: "It's not that simple. I tried to make an orphanage into a business model before, and it did achieve profitability, but it went astray very quickly. The children put too much energy on attracting investors' attention, Even long-term absence from school or simply suspension of school for this reason.”

Dean Wu: "Of course that experiment will slide so quickly to significant mistakes. Management mistakes are the key point, but before a proper solution is found, orphanages and many other fields are not suitable for commercialization. Although life is indispensable everywhere in the world Money, but there are some things that really cannot be directly used as an indicator.”

Dean Wu: "In addition, if the living conditions of the orphanage are better than those of ordinary families, they will be harshly criticized. Not only is it dissatisfied with the orphanage as a whole, but also picky about the children. Many people think that orphans should be more than normal. If the family’s children are doing badly, if they are doing better, why is it considered charity?”

Me: "If you don't need donations from the public, how can you improve your life with the money you earn from the orphanage? For example, if I am an orphan living in Huiguang, I become an Internet celebrity and get rich by selling Internet celebrity peripherals. Then I used the money to make the glow magnificent..."

Dean Wu: "The outside world will criticize us for sucking the blood of orphans and using children as tools to make money. This has nothing to do with the wishes of you as a money maker, it is a matter of our orphanage's standing. Besides, if a sudden rich like you really happens For example, it has been accepted by the society again, so will other orphanages artificially create new children's Internet celebrities? Will they really suck the blood of children? It is better not to challenge lightly about human nature. Don't let humanity have a chance to have fun before the binding cage."

Now it is the summer vacation time of ordinary schools, but there are still one or two classes arranged in Huiguang every day, there must be a class in the morning, and there may be a class in the afternoon, and the rest of the time is free.

When I finished talking with Dean Wu, the children finished their morning classes, and I met them at the break time, I was greeted and complained by them:

"We thought that this morning's class would be temporarily changed to a fairy as the teacher."

"In the past, when there were guests temporarily living in the courtyard, they would be invited to attend one or two classes symbolically."

"The immortal knows a lot of knowledge that we usually don't have access to, so it's obviously very suitable for us to teach us."

"Don't you want to ask us for information? Why do you always talk to the dean and the teachers, but you are far away from us?"

"I found out who you are. It is said that you are very remarkable."

Me: "You checked wrongly. I am extremely beautiful, extremely rich, and extremely young-tempered, but I am not particularly extraordinary."

06871-Found

Except for a few children who are about to grow up, the children of Huiguang do not have private Internet access devices. Huiguang's library has public facilities for them to use.For studying, the number of devices is enough, but if you want to occupy the whole day playing games or something, it will not work.

So after the eight-year-old child who said he had found me was refuted with certainty in my tone, he didn't have a query tool at hand for a while and couldn't re-search, so he began to wonder if he had really checked it wrong or remembered it wrong.

But then, the teenager who was three months away turned on his private Internet tool and showed the search results to the eight-year-old child: among the search results on the first ten pages, there was not even one that described me as "amazing". .I don't know how the child retrieved such a strange word before.

The eight-year-old scratched his head: "Oh, I really checked wrong."

The 17-year-old boy smiled: "The combination of these descriptions such as 'extremely cute', 'extremely sharp', and 'extremely charismatic' can also be deduced to be 'extremely remarkable'."

Why did you ignore 'extremely thick-skinned', 'extremely hateful', and 'extremely uncertain'?

The boy's name is Yiqi, and he has already passed the university of his choice. Once this summer vacation is over, he will bid farewell to Huiguang's life.Even if he comes back in the future, he will only visit the old places and old people, and help out as much as he can, but his life will probably only get further and further away from here.

If it is a child who does not remember his name when he is sent to Huiguang, Huiguang will ask them to draw lots to decide their first and last name. If the child has a favorite character, he can also name himself.

Yiji was five years old when he reached Huiguang. He remembered the pronunciation of his name, but he couldn't remember how to write it, so he tentatively decided on these two words that fit the pronunciation, and said that if Yiji could remember his real name in the future Change again.Orphanages have a lot of businesses to change their surnames and names, and they are used to cooperating with relevant departments, and the process is simple.However, Yiqi has not changed its name so far.

Me: "Yiji, don't pretend you don't know me, the private messages you sent me are not one or two."

Yiji coughed and said, "I'm a decent person now."

What's the meaning?Do you only follow me when you're not serious or when you're not serious?
