From 65438 to 0978, American Hollywood movie star Liz came to Beijing shortly after the reform and opening up. The Catholic American artist had a dream, in which God told her that her home was in the East and her lover was in China, so she came to Beijing to find her dream and stayed at the then Beijing Hotel. One day, when she was sitting in a coffee shop with the housekeeper, she happened to see a young man from China. When they looked at each other, Liz found that she had found her dream destination. This young man is Li Chunping. In the following days, Li Chunping and Liz communicated in Beijing through a Chinese-English dictionary. When Liz decided to let Li Chunping go to America, Li Chunping refused.
However, Li Chunping's desire to go abroad has not changed. Through friends, Li Chunping first went to Britain to study, and became the first batch of international students in the reform and opening up, studying while working. Li Chunping used the word "out of place" to describe the cultural differences between the East and the West.
When Liz returned to America, she missed Li Chunping very much. We must find him and hope that he can go to America. After a while, Li Chunping was moved by Lizzy's sincere feelings. 1980 At the beginning, Li Chunping went to the United States and became an American citizen. In the United States, he has always appeared beside Liz as a relative, but he has never been married. On weekdays, Li Chunping takes courses to get a degree and works in his spare time.
The quiet life didn't last long. 198 1 year, Liz began to get sick until she was bedridden. Li Chunping stayed with Lizzie and took care of her for nearly 10 years. 1990, when Liz was dying, Liz suddenly proposed to marry Li Chunping, and she quickly went through the marriage formalities. Lizzy died a few days after her marriage. Li Chunping was stunned when the lawyer took out Liz's will. Before that, he didn't know how much property she had, and later he realized that it was an amazing number.
199 1 year, Li Chunping returned to Beijing after living in the United States for more than ten years, when he was 42 years old.
Li Chunping said he was homesick and had a "small" family and a "big" family. In recent years, Li Chunping has donated 30 million yuan in cash to domestic charities, with an average of 2.5 million yuan per year.
Only half a year after returning to China, Miyun County in Beijing suffered a rare mudslide disaster. At that time, he asked for the first sum of money from the bank after returning to China, totaling 200,000 yuan, and donated it to the disaster area. This is also the beginning of Li Chunping's donation to public welfare for more than ten years.
When he learned that the elderly in Beijing Welfare Institute needed help, Li Chunping immediately donated 2 million yuan to the elderly in the Welfare Institute through the Beijing Charity Association.
Li Chunping is a sentimental person. Four years ago, a criminal police officer was seriously injured and had to live in a wheelchair every day in an arrest operation by the first team of the Public Security Bureau of Chaoyang District, Beijing. While admiring the heroic feats of this warrior, Li Chunping deeply sympathized with his poor family. Li Chunping believes that the police have paid such a heavy price for social stability and should enjoy the best living conditions. On June 23rd, 2002, 10, a ceremony was held in Beijing Hotel for Mr. Li Chunping to donate 3 million yuan to Chunfeng Poverty Alleviation Action, the Capital Courageous Foundation and the Beijing Public Security Bureau's pension fund for the disabled police. At the donation ceremony, Long Xinmin, then deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, spoke highly of Li Chunping's love for Beijing and concern for public welfare.
On June 2, 2003, he learned through Beijing Youth Daily that a female college student had leukemia and needed 500,000 yuan for surgery. He immediately contacted the parents of the students and donated 400,000 yuan at a time. During the SARS last year, some overseas people left Beijing one after another. The United States also urged him to leave the country and booked a plane ticket for him, but Li Chunping didn't leave. He made a donation of 3 million yuan in a charity performance to fight against SARS, setting a personal donation record.
Li Chunping has forgotten some of his donations. He never donates in kind, because he knows that cash is the most useful thing for the rescued talents. Some individuals and enterprises will put forward some additional conditions when making donations. Li Chunping said, "I am neither an official nor a businessman. I brought all my money back from abroad. For ten years, I have donated money to the society without asking for anything in return. My motivation for donating money is simple, that is, I want to help others. " Li Chunping is now the honorary president of Beijing Charity Association, and he has only such a social title.
Li Chunping is calm and low-key. Because of his unobtrusive style, his popularity is much smaller than that of those rich people who rise and fall on China's rich list every year.
