A letter to Run Run Shaw, an introduction from Run Run Shaw

A letter to Mr. Run Run Shaw.

Mr. Shaw:

You are concerned about the improvement of the quality of the Chinese nation and the great rejuvenation of the nation, and I admire your support for educational institutions at all levels. However, the high tuition fees of various schools have proved that China's educational institutions have basically become profit-making institutions, and the schools are schools for rich children, and Mr. Shaw's money is the icing on the cake for those schools, but cannot benefit the vast number of children from poor families who are thirsty for learning. Therefore, it is recommended that you set up a free online school, provide self-examination of the relevant course lecture videos, and you can buy the copyright from ** University of Electrical Technology to help those rural aspiring young people who have no money to go to university.

God will be grateful to you for spending your limited funds on good deeds that are immeasurably meritorious and giving.
