Heaven and earth have spirits, and nature is magical. In the morning of 200 1, 654 38+February, 12 in Putian, it was suddenly as warm as spring and the sky was clear in Wan Li. With a bright smile, Mr. Fang Runhua, an entrepreneur and philanthropist, was welcomed back to his ancestral home and continued to travel through his hometown for more than 300 years. In Putian No.4 Middle School, a century-old prestigious school, the inauguration ceremony of "Fang Runhua Science and Technology Experimental Teaching Building" and Putian "Fang Runhua Education Center" was grandly held. Mr. Fang Runhua strode to the microphone and poured out his deep affection for his second hometown: "My ancestor/kloc-moved from Yuzhou, Henan Province to Putian, Fujian Province more than 0/000 years ago, and went south to Dongguan, Guangdong Province more than 300 years ago. My hometown' Hotan' was named Henan and Putian respectively. Tracing back to the source, repaying kindness and missing my ancestors, Putian is my second hometown. I love Putian and love the mountains and rivers of Fujian, so I am willing to donate money for educational projects in Fujian and Putian. "

In order to trace the roots for hundreds of years, Mr. Fang Runhua crossed the mountains and rivers and donated more than 2.5 million yuan in Fujian, in addition to building the teaching building of No.4 Middle School, the county education center and? In addition to Luzhen Central Kindergarten, we also donated money to Fujian Normal University to build Jianhua Electronic Zhiyuan Center and hope primary school in Jintian Town, Shaowu.

Fang Runhua's infinite love for his hometown and motherland education stems from the ups and downs of his life. When he was young, he had a dream of going to college, but the artillery fire of the Japanese invaders changed his fate. /kloc-When he was 0/7 years old, Fang Runhua, who was studying at King's College, suffered a family disaster. The Japanese army determined that Xiexing, run by its father, Mr. Fang Shuquan, was "suspected of resisting Japan". The store operated by Fangjia was looted and sealed up, the bank account was frozen, and the hard-earned property was wiped out. Fang Runhua dropped out of school. As the eldest son, he went out early and returned late, supporting the family's living expenses with hard-earned money. Once at the sentry post set up by the Japanese army, the Japanese pointed a gun at him and asked him to bow. The Japanese thought Fang Runhua didn't bend low enough, swearing, waving a slap in the face, and standing as punishment. Fang Runhua, bullied by the invaders, realized that if the country is not strong and the people are not rich, the country will not be a country and the people will not be a people. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world, and everyone should work hard to revitalize the country and the nation.

After World War II, Fang Runhua helped his father revive the Association; 195 1 year, Xiexing developed a 20,000-square-foot venue for drying cinnamon and sesame seeds, and built factories, houses and commercial buildings, which were profitable and developed in a rolling way, becoming one of the first large-scale real estate developers since Hong Kong opened its port.

Fang Runhua admired Mr. Chen Jiageng, the patriotic overseas Chinese leader, highly praised Mr. Chen Lao's education plan and devoted himself to promoting education. He believes that "China must develop education and science and technology if it wants to be rich and strong" and that "running schools and engaging in education will not stop as long as it lives." Adhering to the generous family style of Fangjia, we will give back one tenth of our annual income to the society through Fangshutang Foundation and Fang Runhua Fund to support and develop public welfare undertakings in Hong Kong and the Mainland. Over the past few years, Mr. Fang has invested nearly 200 million yuan to support national education, benefiting hundreds of universities, primary schools, kindergartens and other units. But I live a frugal life like Mr Chen Jiageng. I never want clothes, just vegetables.

Fang Lao is 77 years old this year. He said cheerfully: "I don't think I am old, my heart is still young." Be happy with young people. " He sends 30 letters to schools all over the country every day, which is close to100000 letters a year; Every time he goes to a school, he always likes to walk into the middle of teenagers, give them small pieces of paper, write down words of encouragement and persuasion, and educate students to love their country and hometown and benefit the society. He said to the students of Fushi Normal University: "We should put ourselves in the shoes, love our country and our hometown. I hope you will remember what President Kennedy said, "Ask not what our country can do for us, but what we can do for our country".
