I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property

In the home of Zhu Peigao, the president of Yanjing Film and Television Academy, he was planning to rest. He hadn't expected that such a situation would suddenly erupt late at night. After all, being part of the film and television education circle, his attention to the matter couldn't help but grow.

"Old man, this Dai Qingying situation is getting more and more serious. Now even those academicians from our country involved in scientific research are alarmed. This young man named Zhang Menglong really has some ability!" Zhu Peigao's wife adjusted her glasses. "Although Dai Qingying has already graduated, she is still from Huaxia Film Academy. This has had quite an impact on their school."

"Isn't that the truth? That He Li, insisting on standing up for his own student, has now stirred up trouble for himself," President Zhu sighed. "Our two schools have been competing for so many years, and this is actually good for our school."

This wasn't because Zhu Peigao was selfish. After all, there's only so much educational resource available each year. Official is official, private affairs are private. Schools always hope to recruit more excellent students and compete for more resources, and the strength of the school and its influence in society are among the most important elements.

"We at Yanjing Film and Television Academy have been suppressed by them for so many years. This time is our opportunity, and we must make good use of it!" Zhu Peigao said. "In the future, our school must pay attention to ideological education. Students, while they need to do well in their professional courses, must not deviate ideologically, and we also need to properly reform our teaching staff!"

"Old man, it's a phone call!" Zhu Peigao's spouse handed over the mobile phone.

"Who is it?"

"I don't know, it's an unfamiliar number."

"Oh?" Zhu Peigao answered the phone, "Hello, this is Zhu Peigao. May I ask who's calling?"

"Hello, President Zhu. This is Zhang Menglong."

"Zhang Menglong?" Zhu Peigao was so startled that he sat up straight. Had someone from his school also provoked Zhang Menglong? Was he now coming to him for retribution?

"You... What do you need?" asked Zhu Peigao.

"President Zhu, you needn't be nervous, I'm not here to cause you trouble."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Peigao breathed a sigh of relief, "Then you…"

"It's like this, as you know, I've made quite a few donations to the education industry. However, most of it has so far been to universities with a focus on scientific research. Our academies of arts like yours have never been sponsored by me, especially after the emergence of a degenerate like Dai Qingying. I felt it necessary to strengthen the education in art institutions."

"What do you mean?"

"Well, when it comes to education, money is always needed. I plan to donate a sum of money to Yanjing Film and Television Academy to support our school's development," said Zhang Menglong.

"I understand that pursuing the arts is a difficult path, and it can be quite costly. Many talented students fall due to their family's financial circumstances, and most of these students are really down to earth. I think they need help! It's also like reserving some excellent new blood for Huaxia's film and television industry, after all!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Peigao became extremely excited. Actually, their school originally had a foundation, established with donations from successful alumni. With this money, they indeed funded many students with good character and strong professional skills but poor family backgrounds.

But in recent years, the foundation's funds had almost run out, and Zhu Peigao had been worried about this issue lately!

"Zhang, you don't mind me calling you that, do you?"

"Of course not. You're naturally my elder, President Zhu."

"It's like this, I'd like to know the amount of the donation, so we can plan for the use of the funds accordingly."

"Let's start with a donation of 1 billion Huaxia currency!"

"1 billion? Are you joking?" Zhu Peigao's mouth hung open in shock. When their foundation was first established, it only had 20 million in funds.

"It's not enough? If it's not enough, I can add more!"

"Enough! Enough!" Even 50 million would have made Zhu Peigao smile so much that his wrinkles would show.

"But, I hope you can establish this foundation as soon as tomorrow. As for what to name it, that's up to you. Ten minutes ago, I already transferred the money into the school's account. You can check it tomorrow."

"That fast?" Zhu Peigao was stunned by Zhang Menglong's approach.

"One more thing, President!"

"You say!"

"If the president of Huaxia Film Academy asks you about this money, you tell him I donated it. If he asks why I didn't give it to them, you say they don't deserve it!"

Hearing this, Zhu Peigao suddenly understood: Zhang Menglong wasn't really here to do charity; he was playing mind games!

If their school received such a large donation, Huaxia Film Academy would definitely be unable to sit still once they got wind of the news. They would surely come asking, and Zhang Menglong's response was undoubtedly a stab in the heart!

"Alright, I got it. I'll pass on the message!" As the saying goes, "take the money to ward off disaster for others," Zhu Peigao was merely the messenger; he had nothing that he couldn't say. It was just that Huaxia Film Academy was going to be in an awkward position. Zhang Menglong was pressuring them with this method!

Do you want to deal with Dai Qingying or not? If not, he will crazily support Yanjing Film and Television Academy and dump loads of money into it!

Eventually, all the outstanding students would go to Yanjing Film and Television, leading Huaxia Film Academy to plummet and eventually become a second-rate art school!

...

The next day, just as Zhang Menglong had said, Yanjing Film and Television School immediately posted the news of the new foundation's establishment on its official website. The foundation was named "Menglong Foundation," and the donor was Zhang Menglong, with a donation amount of 10 billion!

In the whole of Huaxia, there were many people who donated to schools, but such a large amount was absolutely unprecedented! Very soon, countless people knew about this news.

"President Zhang donated to Yanjing Film and Television. You know what that means, right? (dog head emoji)"

"Why do I feel like President Zhang's tactics when he bought NetEase Music and his current moves are the same? Directly smashing money on the competition, this is just a replication!"

"With so much more money, let's see how Huaxia Film Academy is going to compete with Yanjing Film and Television!"

...

As expected, the moment they saw this news, the president and leaders of Huaxia Film Academy couldn't sit still. They clearly knew it was one of Zhang Menglong's tricks, but they were helpless. He was using his own money to donate, so what right did they have to make any complaints?

"This won't do!" a leader said, "If Zhang Menglong fully supports Yanjing Film and Television Academy, our school will fall behind in at most five years. By then, our facilities, faculty, and student quality will all be far surpassed!"

"Yes, in the future, when people talk about performance majors in Huaxia, everyone will only know about Yanjing Film and Television, and nobody will remember Huaxia Film anymore. President, you can't just watch things develop this way!"

The conference room was as silent as death.

"I'll call Zhang Menglong!" After much contemplation, Huaxia Film School's president Luo Hui decided to try contacting Zhang Menglong to see if it was possible to secure a donation.

...

"Oh, a call's coming in!" Zhang Menglong said with a smile, sipping his milk as he picked up the phone.

"Hello, who is this?"

"Is this student Zhang Menglong? I am Luo Hui, the president of Huaxia Film Academy."

"Oh, President Luo, what can I do for you?" asked Zhang Menglong.

"It's like this. First, I would like to apologize for the damage caused to you by the words and actions of Professor He Li and Dai Qingying from our school."

"President, you are too kind. It wasn't your fault after all!"

"Zhang, actually I know that by donating to Yanjing Film and Television, you're trying to force us to make some kind of response, I... "

"No, no, no, President Luo, I really just wanted to promote our country's film and television education. Actually, I was also planning to donate 10 billion to you too, but I've already been branded as a 'second generation rich kid with twisted values.' If I kept doing this, wouldn't I be criticized again?"

"Rest assured! We will definitely give you a satisfactory response to this matter!" Hearing what Zhang Menglong said, President Luo understood that Zhang Menglong was using this tactic to force them to take a stand!
