Recently, the incident of "girls being abused by their stepmother" in Jiangxi caused a heated discussion in the media, and with the passage of time, the truth behind the incident of Lilac Xiaohui gradually surfaced. According to the Information Daily reported on the 23rd, recently, an official in Poyang County revealed that there was sufficient evidence to prove that Xiaohui Lilac was not injured by her stepmother. 2 1, a post called "The Latest Insider" appeared on the Internet, calling it a "white lie", which achieved the hype effect through the Internet, because the girl was ill and the family had no money to see a doctor.
Although the hype is very disgraceful, I would rather believe that this is an imperfect but tender plan. In fact, this kind of planning is not the first. Remember Cao Xin 'an, the dutiful son who abandoned his old mother? He cruelly left his mother, who was nearly eighty years old and seriously ill, in the hospital. Later reports showed that he took a road of "hype" and was branded as "unfilial" to attract media attention and save his mother. Behind his "unfilial" is the helplessness of a small person to survive.
In China, perhaps "stepmother" is the best adjective to describe the unfair treatment of a unit or individual. In China's traditional vision, "mother gives birth, stepmother raises", which is the most miserable situation for a child. It can be expected that without those bloody pictures, shocking marks on her body, and the sensitive word "stepmother", it is certain that Xiaohui not only has no money to live in a big hospital in Shanghai, but also can't afford to live in a small local hospital in Nanchang and Poyang. What Xiaohui can do is lie in the rental house and die slowly.
When I was in college, my classmates learned about uremia together, and the diagnosis was that I needed a kidney transplant. Donations from classes and colleges are a drop in the bucket, and everyone hopes to get social donations through the media. However, the reporter said that there are too many such things, and there are worse than this. It is ok to write a manuscript, but the most important thing is to have details that can cause social sensation. In that planning, a classmate had a sudden inspiration. He suggested that the patient write a suicide note and forge the scene of "attempted suicide". This move really works. After the report came out, the leaders came to visit, and the money in the fundraising account was also rising day by day, and finally the operation fee was collected.
Every time I think about it, we are still a little scared. However, what is a small scam compared to saving a person's life? White lies are sometimes the instinct of the weak to save themselves, and behind this wisdom of survival, how helpless and bitter it is. If the social security mechanism is perfect, if the social assistance system is developed, and if it is not so expensive to see a doctor, do you still need to seek social sympathy and assistance through the extreme way of "the most poisonous stepmother"? Behind all kinds of abnormal phenomena is the pain of social transformation. I hope that the government and society will treat this deceptive hype with a tolerant and sad attitude.
2. Seriously ill girls received donations from netizens, and pocketed 65,438+10,000 donations.
In May this year, Xiao Juan, a Shanxi girl with a brain tumor, got help from netizens. They took to the streets twice to raise funds, and finally raised 6.5438+0.5 million yuan. At that time, the organizer and Xiao Juan verbally agreed that the remaining money from the treatment of Xiao Juan would be donated to other people who needed help more. In June, Xiao Juan had a successful operation, but he brought the remaining 654.38 million yuan back to his hometown in Shanxi. Xiao Juan's action drew a lot of criticism on the Internet. Fundraising organizers are worried about how many people are willing to raise money for people they meet by chance after the Xiao Juan incident.
Unfortunately, I had a brain tumor and was lucky to be donated.
On May 13, Mother's Day, 100, more than one Olympic netizen lined up in Huaqiang North, holding banners and hanging large photos of Xiao Juan to raise money for a girl named Xiao Juan under the scorching sun. Passers-by donated more than 30,000 yuan that day. Later, netizens took to the streets to raise money in the rain again on May 20, and raised more than 30,000 yuan that day. Within half a month, donations from all parties exceeded 1.52 million yuan.
Xiao Juan attracted the attention of netizens, not only because she was seriously ill, but also because of her experience. Xiao Juan, a 25-year-old from rural Qixian County, Shanxi Province, came to Shenzhen to work alone five years ago and has been saving money to treat her mother. In March this year, her mother successfully completed the operation, but Xiao Juan found that she had a brain tumor for three years. "She loves her mother, and we love her," netizens issued such a fundraising slogan. On May 13, the reporter interviewed Xiao Juan, and she believed that she would get better. When she recovers, she will donate the rest of the money to those who need it more.
With the cross-regional cooperation of netizens in Shenzhen, Beijing and Shaanxi, Xiao Juan successfully operated in Beijing on June 27th and returned to Shenzhen safely.
Promise to donate and then change your mind.
The doctor who operated on Xiao Juan said that the operation was successful, followed by a recovery period and needed hyperbaric oxygen treatment. Xiao Juan's surgery cost more than 50,000 yuan, leaving 654.38 million+donations. Based on the principle of "saving the poor but not saving the poor", the organizer negotiated with Xiao Juan, and reimbursed Xiao Juan's living expenses for two months during his treatment with donations of 6,543.8+0.8 million yuan, another 6,543.8+0.0 million yuan for Xiao Juan's rehabilitation and 60 yuan's hyperbaric oxygen once a week, leaving more than 60,000 yuan.
But to the surprise of netizens, on July 24th, Xiao Juan returned to his hometown in Shanxi with the remaining 65,438+10,000 yuan. Since then, he has not answered questions from netizens. She doesn't return text messages, doesn't answer the phone, and occasionally gets through, but Xiao Juan's mother said, don't harass my daughter, or you will call the police.
"Our principle is to save people, not the poor. There are still many dying people who need help." An organizer said that many people are in urgent need of help recently, and I hope Xiao Juan can donate the rest to others.
Lack of loose supervision of fund-raising organizations
The Xiao Juan incident also highlighted the lack of donation management. The reporter was informed that at that time, the fundraising organization proposed that four netizens supervise the donation, one with a passbook, one with a card, one with a password and one with an ID card. However, after Xiao Juan took the balance, the organizer found that the donation was directly credited to Xiao Juan's card number, and only one of the four executives had a passbook, and the card and password were all in Xiao Juan.
"If you are in emergency, you will help the poor." The money raised can only be used to cure diseases and save people, and cannot bear the family expenses of the recipients. This is the understanding of netizens in the Olympic Love Special Zone. Over the years, they spontaneously organized donations to help others.
"This thing is actually quite complicated," an organizer analyzed. Xiao Juan's sudden change may have been suggested, but the ultimate problem of the whole incident is that there is no clear fundraising law. Because it is not a registered legal organization, Love Special Zone has no right to supervise donations. "We are rethinking whether charitable associations in the love zone should be registered and found a solution." The day before yesterday, Ba Fenzhai, one of the organizers, told reporters that they had submitted materials to the relevant government departments to apply for the establishment of a charity association in the Love Special Zone.
She deceived everyone's kindness.
Xiao Juan took away the balance he promised to donate, which caused an uproar among netizens.
Many netizens said that they were "shocked", "sad" and "in short, it was a very sad thing and deceived everyone's kindness". Some netizens think that since the money has been donated to Xiao Juan, she has the right to control it. Some netizens think that she can not thank the organizers and netizens, or she can not donate money, but she must disclose the detailed accounts.
I use this money legally.
The day before yesterday, the reporter dialed Xiao Juan's phone with his mobile phone. Xiao Juan stressed that she didn't "take away" the donation as netizens said, but used it legally. Xiao Juan said that after the operation, she still needs rehabilitation and hyperbaric oxygen treatment. The money was used to treat the disease, because no one took care of Shenzhen, and she went back to her hometown. Xiao Juan said that he was legal and acted according to his conscience.
However, Xiao Juan refused to answer questions about her weekly treatment fee, how to spend the money, the initial oral agreement, and said that she didn't need to explain.
It is difficult for the law to determine the ownership of blank donations.
Does Xiao Juan own this donation? The reporter interviewed Wang Rongli, a lawyer from Guangdong Guo Li Law Firm. "At present, there are no laws and regulations on fundraising in China, which can be said to be blank. It is difficult to determine who owns this money. "
"This is an account of conscience," Mr. Wang said. Although there was a verbal agreement before, there is no legal basis for netizens to return donations. He suggested that netizens in the SAR register as charitable foundations, but Mr. Wang also said that it is objectively difficult to register successfully, and it is best to sign a written contract.
3. Central Bank: Rising prices are not accidental inflation risks.
Considering that the contradiction of balance of payments surplus has a tendency to spread to price increase after continuous accumulation, from the domestic and foreign factors, the current price increase is not only affected by accidental or temporary factors, but also the inflation risk has an upward trend.
The second quarter monetary policy implementation report released by the central bank on the 8 th said that at present, the trend of China's economic growth from fast to hot is more obvious, and problems such as excessive trade surplus, excessive credit supply and excessive investment growth are still outstanding; High-energy-consuming industries are growing rapidly, and the situation of energy conservation and emission reduction is still grim; The pressure of rising prices continues to increase, especially some food prices and housing prices that involve the vital interests of the people have risen rapidly.
The report pointed out that at present, domestic supply and industrial production capacity are growing rapidly, and bottlenecks have been alleviated. In addition, the state has issued a series of comprehensive measures to stabilize the rise of food prices in time, all of which have a certain inhibitory effect on the rise of food prices. However, considering that the contradiction of the balance of payments surplus has a tendency to spread to the price increase after continuous accumulation, from the domestic and foreign factors, the current price increase is not only affected by accidental or temporary factors, but also the inflation risk has an upward trend.
According to the analysis of the report, the following four factors increase the risk of inflation:
The prices of food such as grain and meat are easy to rise and difficult to fall in the short term.
There is upward pressure on energy prices. Recently, the international oil price has gone up again. Promoting resource price reform and strengthening environmental protection in China will also push up the price of energy resources. In addition, after the centralized release of production capacity, the shortage of coal, electricity and oil transportation will not be ruled out again in the future.
Labor costs are rising. On the one hand, it will be reflected in the prices of products and services, on the other hand, it may drive up consumer prices.
The increase in inflation expectations has further increased the pressure of rising prices. In the second quarter of 2007, the People's Bank of China conducted a questionnaire survey on urban depositors nationwide, which showed that residents' expectation index of future prices reached 40.2%, the second highest level since the 1999 survey. In addition, the public's perception of inflation is mainly based on the prices of frequently purchased goods. At present, the meat, poultry and eggs with the fastest price increase are important commodities for residents' daily consumption, so the inflation felt by residents may be higher than the actual inflation level. When "perceived inflation" is greater than "actual inflation", price expectations may be further pushed up.
In addition, the report pointed out that the previous price increase of grain, meat, poultry and eggs has been gradually transmitted to the downstream food processing, catering and other industries, so it is necessary to pay close attention to the price transmission problem to prevent the overall price increase.
The central bank said that, overall, in the context of rising global inflationary pressure, China needs to pay more attention to the risk of the transmission of rising food prices to general consumer goods.
The central bank said that it will continue to implement a prudent monetary policy, adhere to moderate tightening, maintain necessary regulatory efforts, strive to maintain a stable monetary and financial environment, control inflation expectations, and keep prices basically stable. Continue to coordinate the use of open market operations and deposit reserve ratio tools, actively innovate hedging tools according to the needs of macroeconomic regulation and control, and strengthen liquidity management. We will steadily push forward the reform of interest rate marketization, promote the construction of the benchmark interest rate system in the money market, and further enhance the regulatory role of price leverage. In accordance with the principles of initiative, controllability and gradualism, we will continue to improve the RMB exchange rate formation mechanism and maintain the basic stability of the RMB exchange rate at a reasonable and balanced level.
The report of the central bank also reminds that commercial banks should attach great importance to the risks hidden by maturity mismatch and currency mismatch. The report holds that in recent years, with the active development of financial market, especially capital market, the asset selection behavior and investment preference of Chinese residents and enterprises have changed significantly, which has further caused some changes in the term structure of assets and liabilities of commercial banks. In addition, the currency structure of assets and liabilities of commercial banks has also changed, and the phenomenon of currency mismatch has gradually emerged.
4. Peking University Recruitment Research: A book of self-enrichment power.
On the road of establishing his independent kingdom, Peking University dug another "moat". Peking University announced the 2008 graduate enrollment plan on July 8th. Among all the enrollment places, the number of students who are recommended to be exempted from the test (walking students) accounts for 50% to 80% of the planned number. This policy makes many college students feel "unfair".
As an explanation that fat water does not flow out of outsiders. The reason given by Peking University is that this is done according to the opinion of the tutor, hoping to recruit higher-level students. Today, known as the "last bastion of market economy", facing the criticism of bureaucracy in colleges and universities, the opinions of tutors can be respected by the school, and Peking University can be said to be at the forefront of the times again.
In the recently published ranking of world-class universities competitiveness in 2007, Peking University ranked 192. But not surprisingly, among mainland universities, Peking University is still the "boss". This may be the capital for Peking University to choose graduate students. After all, a thin camel is bigger than a horse. Among mainland universities, Peking University is still qualified to be so awesome.
A "Berlin Wall" of "excellent fresh graduates of national key universities recommended by their alma mater to be exempted from exams" has prevented countless students with dreams of Peking University from becoming graduate students of Peking University. However, "many students who apply for Peking University graduate students just want to have a Peking University diploma to find a job. They didn't come to study, but to gild. "Behind the far-fetched reasons, what we see is the shadow of academic bloodline theory.
As far as undergraduates are concerned, Peking University certainly has reason to be proud. Because they can rely on their own fame, gather around the elite of the college entrance examination and issue "warlords". In addition to the "spoiler" of the Hong Kong University Raptors crossing the river, Peking University was forced to spend a lot of money to buy bones and fight for fame. More often, Peking University is still "the fragrance of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley".
However, under the shadow of "inclusiveness and freedom of thought", it is difficult for Peking University to reproduce the brilliance of gathering masters and shining stars. Like a nouveau riche in vanity fair. Peking University is increasingly giving people the impression of "deep pockets". From "the annual foreign affairs reception fee of Peking University is equivalent to the scale of a medium-sized province" to "the construction of unnamed lake hotel", Peking University is gradually drifting away from the real university spirit.
From 1999, the Ministry of Education began to implement the financial preferential policy of building a "world-class university", with an annual increase of about 10 billion yuan, and Peking University can get 18 billion yuan. Such a "small stove" has made Peking University a vested interest. What they want is not to let more people share the benefits of extra investment, but to keep others from getting their hands on their "source code" like other monopoly industries.
"I think we have become a strong college and university because we have international students from all over the world." Richard levin, president of Yale University, said this when talking about Yale's success. It is precisely because of this inclusiveness that all rivers run into the sea. Once Peking University, now Yale, has become a dream place for people who pursue academic freedom.
Do all the graduates of Peking University stay in Peking University to study? The answer is merciless. According to the data, in 200 1 year, there were 22 17 undergraduate graduates and 2002 graduate students in Peking University, and 83 1 person went abroad to study directly after graduation, accounting for nearly 20% of the total number of graduates, of which 7 1 1 person went to the United States, accounting for nearly 87%.
Peking University has gradually closed its front door while becoming the "back garden" of European and American universities. The practice of "opening a shop in Wu Dalang" may have only one result, as the old lady Jin Jiu said: each generation is worse than the next. And this is what none of us want to see.
5.65438+100,000 yuan to bury the dog: who is embarrassed when the relationship between man and dog is not over?
It is said that after the death of Hou, a billionaire artist with a net worth of 30 million yuan, there was quite a market for public opinion at that time: Mr. Hou did not realize his wish of "going to the Olympic Games in 2008", and his wish did not mean to give back to the society or the poor. This is a pity of our society. If Mr. Hou added a sentence "and donated 5 million yuan for the construction of Olympic venues" in his last wish, we might not have such regret and disappointment.
Wang Xiaobo once interpreted the "silent majority", so this kind of group under the banner of charity and public welfare, eyeing the legal income, inheritance composition and dominant position of the rich, might as well be summarized as "just majority". The following news may make this group even more regretful and disappointed: "A professor at a domestic university spent 654.38 million yuan to write' love between man and dog' on the couplets for burying dogs" (Huaxi Daily, July 23).
As long as we have a clear understanding of the current national conditions in China, for example, many people are still struggling to get enough food and clothing and go to school, spending 654.38 million+on burying their dogs, which is of course a very glaring contrast. As a senior intellectual like the old professor, his behavior is quite similar to those of superficial upstarts. "People have unfinished feelings with dogs" can easily be regarded as the wanton publicity of "dog humanitarianism". The "just majority" also has its own judgment logic-if the old professor donated the money to poverty alleviation or charity, would it be more meaningful to contribute some waste heat to the country in his lifetime?
Although Carnegie, the American steel magnate and philanthropist, said, "If the rich man dies and becomes rich, he will die shamefully!" However, I feel that many rich people abroad leave their rich heritage to their pets, and they may not have to face so many "just majorities" who have many opinions and demands on the heritage structure. Why does the old professor "spend energy and money on social welfare undertakings"? It is their freedom to make money by their ability and whether to give back to the society and the poor. Giving back is human nature, and not giving back is our duty.
It should be pointed out that the old professor's domination of his legal property has nothing to do with public order, good customs, extravagance and waste, and being a teacher. It's only about personal feelings. If the identity tag is removed, he will not be a university professor or a senior intellectual, but will only become an ordinary old man. When he spent money on the funeral of the puppy, he no longer regarded the dog as an animal, but as a relative who brought joy to his sad old age.
The most intuitive feeling is that people are not as good as dogs-why doesn't he leave the money to his children? Is the old professor extremely disappointed with human nature? We can't find a definite answer in the report. However, after burying the abandoned puppy for only three months, it is not difficult to see the loneliness and loneliness of an old man who is nearly eighty years old.
On the other hand, the elderly may also want to express a hidden emotion that "it is better to raise a dog than a child" to some people. Whether it stems from children's unfilial, not to mention. However, from the report, we can find that children are too busy to care about their parents and be filial. To make a witty analogy, don't ask the old professor what he did for the puppy. What did his relatives do for him? The behavior of the old professor virtually verified a sentence quoted by Li Ao in a book: "The more people you know, the more you like dogs". Three months of human-dog love is better than human ethics-such a rebellious effect has already appeared.
Objectively, the shocking behavior of the old man gave the society a loud "slap in the face", but he had no reason to pay for the social impact of his behavior. Under the background of rapid changes in the economic environment and stepping into an aging society, even if we have mastered social resources, the living conditions of the elderly who seem to be in a good situation should be paid as much attention as the economically defined vulnerable groups. Suspicion of the "psychological distortion" of senior intellectuals is an abnormal reaction of China's social spirit and culture. The "just majority" is not so much a cynical thinking as a collective longing for poor achievements in charity and public welfare: there is no universal sense of social responsibility of individuals in culture, and charity relies more on the leadership of the government and the whim of the rich in practice.
On the other hand, what is criticized is the people's heart, but what can be transformed is the system. When the old professor's behavior becomes the public focus, and he is obsessed with whether to spend this 654.38 million+,the successful institutional foundation and operating platform of the "rotten tail dog" are easily overlooked. Funeral industry used to be a cold industry, but in recent years, news of corruption in the industry has come out frequently. According to the report, it is not difficult to predict that this funeral for dogs will bring huge profits to the local funeral department. As a rare industry that is still in a closed market environment, the institutions under the civil affairs department almost monopolize the operation of all funeral supplies. If the administrative power abides by its duties, it is committed to providing better products for the public, rather than trying to expand the service innovation of open exploitation; If the monopoly of the funeral industry is broken by full market competition. The funeral service park should be able to solve the old professor's "tricks" in a more leisurely way.
