Beijing, December 29 (Xinhuanet) -- On December 28, at the 11th China Corporate Social Responsibility Summit and 2018 China Social Responsibility Public Welfare Ceremony held in Beijing, actor Kong Wei won the title of "Social Responsibility Public Welfare Ambassador".
She is Chen Bailu in Cao Yu's classic drama work "Sunrise", Tang's wife in "The Sun Also Rises", and Yao Ying in "The First Half of My Life"... But at yesterday's grand ceremony, more people knew Kong Wei's other identities, the founder of the Dream Public Welfare Fund, an ordinary person who has practiced public welfare for many years, and a public welfare person who slowed down the road of performing arts for public welfare.
Kong Wei's starting point is very high, the actor's career early, he starred in the works of director Jiang Wen as the heroine, the school was founded fifty years ago, Kong Wei was the first North Film student recruited, she was even rated by many foreign media at that time as The Oriental Julia Roberts, just when everyone seemed to have a bright acting career, Kong Wei suddenly "disappeared" on the screen, and her name was rarely seen in various media reports. Because of a chance, Kong Wei, who had a smooth ride on the road of acting, chose another path that surprised everyone - to do public welfare.
In 2001, shortly after Graduating from University, Convey came into contact with a child with leukemia by chance. Kong Wei was very distressed at that time, and immediately raised 100,000 yuan to help this child, "At that time, I had no fame, no money, and no social resources, just by virtue of my simple desire to help him, I actually did such a beautiful thing, which has always inspired me until now." These 100,000 pieces also gave Kong Wei great confidence to persevere on the road of public welfare.
Kong Wei said that he is now engaged in public welfare undertakings, more or less influenced by his parents. When I was a child, my mother took Kong Wei to the market to buy vegetables, and whenever she saw a child who bought vegetables, her mother would definitely go to buy her vegetables," the mother said, so that she could take her children home earlier. In 1998, when there was a flood in the south, Kong Wei, who was studying in Beijing, went to the Ministry of Civil Affairs with the life jacket her father gave her to donate clothes, "To this day, I can still remember how bright the sun was that afternoon when I walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau after donating clothes." ”
From Weibo kidnapping, to volunteers who come home for babies, to following the free lunch team to give children their first meals, Kong Wei has gone farther and farther on the road of public welfare and done more and more things. In 2012, Kong Wei saw a news item in the newspaper about the death of a left-behind child in Bijie, Guizhou Province. Kong Wei is a native of Guizhou, seeing such an incident in her hometown, Kong Wei, who was already a mother at that time, was deeply touched, and her first reaction at that time was to donate money to the local left-behind children.
"At that time, the simplest idea was to donate money, but our donation was rejected by the principal, Xiao Zhang said that he did not want the children to learn the habit of reaching out to others and crying with people from an early age. Kong Wei did not give up, she went back and forth to many schools, and found that in these schools where more than 80% of them are left-behind children, what they lack most is not materials, but education and teachers. So in 2014, Kong Wei set up the Dream Transmission Public Welfare Fund, and launched the core public welfare project "Education Project", "Capital is the capital of resources, which is intended to integrate better educational resources for children in rural areas." Introducing here, it seems that from Kong Wei's happy smile and clear eyes, you can see the children's laughter and laughter, and you can see the warm picture of them reading the texts aloud under the leadership of the teacher.
In this way, the "education project" has continued, Kong Wei and the same caring team partners recruit teachers, do training, and have the first, second, third... So far, 34 schools have crossed the two provinces, and as many as 13,000 children have been directly assisted. "In the past 20 years, I have not forgotten the motivation behind me, the simple and kind heart. I often tell the people in the team that as long as I insist on doing public welfare, even if it only affects one person, it is the power of love, because I believe that a child who has been loved and accompanied since childhood will try to learn to love others when he grows up, because I believe that the purpose of learning is not to get rid of the poor hometown, but to get the hometown out of poverty. Because we believe that we insist on these is to let the children grow up that they know how to be grateful, willing to pay, and have the ability to pay, because I believe that all this we insist on is the greatest meaning of my education project. ”
As an actress, Kong Wei loves acting, but she has given up too much for the sake of public welfare. When asked by the host about "how to balance the relationship between doing public welfare and acting", Kong Wei's words touched many people present. She confessed that she had a long period of full-time work in public welfare, "so-called full-time, but I don't take a penny of salary, because I have an emotional relationship with these children." 」 For two or three years I didn't shoot any scenes, didn't take any jobs, and wasn't afraid of everyone laughing. When two or three years have passed and Kong Wei wants to come back to make film and television dramas, "everyone has forgotten me." Fortunately, since last year, Kong Wei has returned to the stage and performed more than 70 plays, "The audience of the play is very small, but I think it is also a reward for me, because I have not lost my old profession, which is also my beloved." ”
Along the way, Kong Wei's biggest feeling is "responsibility", "responsibility means that many times, you have to face everything single-handedly, exert all your strength, and strive to get close to the ideal appearance." Fortunately, I have that original heart that has kept me going until now, and fortunately, there are many entrepreneurs with a sense of social responsibility who have given me great support, just like all of you here. You have truly interpreted the love and beauty, touched and harvested, and practiced how responsibility enlightens the future and how responsibility changes the future. ”
Kong Wei said: "I think 'don't forget my original heart' is the most important creed that I can adhere to on the road of public welfare. In the final analysis, doing public welfare is not what we owe anyone, we don't owe anyone else, but why we have to fight so hard is because we have identified the direction of our hearts, and since we have stood up, we must have this responsibility and continue to stand. ”
