Just past the National Day, 78 million+ audiences walked into the theater and watched the movie "Chosin Lake". This film with the theme of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, which is expected to exceed 5 billion yuan at the box office, has touched the hearts of countless audiences.
In the movie, the soldiers who fought in blood on the battlefield desperately resisted and sacrificed their lives for the country, which was touching.
In reality, behind them there is such a group of people:
They did everything they could to help the rear of the battle, donating aircraft, military supplies, providing financial support, sacrificing their own interests in exchange for the victory of the country.
In the face of great right and wrong, they withstood the test and saved the country from water and fire.
Among these people, Rong Yiren, the "red entrepreneur" who took the lead in donating 12 aircraft, is a typical representative.
As the saying goes, "three generations of wealth are not enough", unexpectedly, the Rong family broke this spell, and all three generations were "the richest man in China".
In 1916, Rong Yiren was born in Wuxi to a famous and prestigious family. Rong Yiren's grandfather Rong Xitai founded Qianzhuang, Rong Yiren's father was Rong Desheng, who was known as the "King of Cotton Yarn", and Rong Yiren's uncle Rong Zongjing was the "King of Flour". At that time, the Rongjia family covered many manufacturing businesses such as flour manufacturing and spinning technology, and was a representative of advanced industry and commerce.
Rong Yiren, who was born with a golden spoon, did not become spoiled and spoiled because of this, and sat back and enjoyed his success.
Under the strict family education, rong Yiren, a 22-year-old who had just graduated from St. John's University in Shanghai, began to help the family manage the business, and with his outstanding talent and sensitivity to business, he soon became a heavy figure in the Rong family.
During the Liberation War, he created national enterprises and fed more than half of China's Rong family, but was framed by the Kuomintang as a "black-hearted businessman."
In May 1949, the flames of war were about to burn in Shanghai, and many "mercenary" capitalists chose to move overseas in order to avoid losses, but Rong Yiren's father, Rong Desheng, decided to stay, as a businessman who rarely stayed, Rong Desheng also issued a "three noes" order: "Never move the factory, never transfer funds, never leave Wuxi." ”
The Rong family, who was so loyal, still could not escape the "hat" that the Kuomintang had buckled.
Suspected people from the Songhu police department kidnapped Rong Desheng and extorted a ransom of $500,000 from the Rong family. Not only that, the Ministry of Grain also secretly dropped the 300,000 flour that Rong Yiren handed over in an attempt to blackmail again.
All kinds of unfair treatment made Rong Yiren feel disappointed by the current situation, but fortunately, the arrival of the Chinese Communist Party untied Rong Yiren's heart knot.
During the liberation of Shanghai, a detail of the Communist Party deeply touched Rong Yiren's heart: Rong Yiren, who drove out in the morning, saw PLA fighters lying on the streets of Shanghai, and in order not to disturb the people, they did not enter the houses and slept on the streets.
After that, the Communist Party also helped Rong Yiren apply for a loan to solve the problem of funds, which enabled the Rongjia factory to tide over the difficulties.
Rong Yiren also followed the practice of "the grace of dripping water and repaying each other with gushing springs", and donated 12 aircraft when the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea broke out.
At that time, China's total combat aircraft were less than 300, and it is conceivable how precious these 12 aircraft are!
Not only that, when the country encountered difficulties a year later, Rong Yiren also took the lead in subscribing to public bonds to help the country survive the crisis.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Rong Yiren's enterprise development momentum was fierce, and no one expected it, but at this time he made a surprising decision, he wanted to merge the company into the state and implement the public-private partnership system.
Although the shareholders of the company strongly opposed it at that time, they still did not stop Rong Yiren from donating all the family foundations that the Rong family had worked hard for half a century to the country!
At that time, there were many large capitals in a wait-and-see state, but seeing that Rong Yiren took the lead in donating money, he naturally followed the footsteps of "public-private partnership".
After the reform and opening up, Rong Yiren ushered in a new mission.
Deng Xiaoping approached Rong Yiren and discussed with him ideas about opening up to the outside world. Deng Xiaoping encouraged Rong Yiren to take the lead in doing the real economy, find a window for opening up to the outside world, and very relieved to entrust the matter to Rong Yiren.
Rong Yiren also did not live up to Deng Xiaoping's expectations and shouldered the heavy responsibility of attracting foreign investment.
Rong Yiren died in 2005 at the age of 89.
The glorious era that belonged to him is over, but national heroes like him will never be forgotten by us. What we need is a "red entrepreneur" like Mr. Rong Lao!
