The next day, Macau Airport.

"I've never seen anyone like you. I took you to the casino several times, but you never even played a single card, except for the last time you played against the Vietnamese.

People have desires and a desire to win. Even if they don't have a gambling addiction, they will still play a few rounds out of curiosity. Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are really incomprehensible." Ma Yueling looked at the man in front of her and shook her head.

"Haha, I'm not interested in this. Especially the casinos in the Macau area. I've heard a joke before, which goes: If you hate someone, take him to the Macau area. This sentence will never go out of date." Chen Xi grinned.

In fact, it’s not that he is not interested, it’s just that he is tired of playing it.

He has played in casinos all over the world, and he paid a lot of tuition fees in the Macau area in his previous life. He also met some gamblers who said that they used to be big bosses and lost tens of millions or hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars. In fact, this amount of money is not as much as he has...

After all, he often plays with Australian dollars and US dollars, so no matter how you calculate it, he pays more tuition fees than those bosses.

In this life, he felt that these things no longer aroused his interest at all, but it was the regrets from the past that he needed to make up for.

"Men are basically involved in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. I think all your interests are focused on women." Ma Yueling glanced at the three women not far away.

"Uh..." Chen Xi was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say.

"Okay, get on the plane and see you back to Australia!" Ma Yueling waved her hand.

"Well, okay, Sister Ling, let's go." Chen Xi also nodded at her.

"Hey, how can I snatch Saori away? If I use some bad means, she will definitely hate me to death. Forget it, let's just let fate take its course." Looking at the four people leaving, Ma Yueling murmured to herself.

A few hours later, Huajing.

After finding a hotel to settle the three women, Chen Xi hurried to his destination.

"Are people who just went abroad to study so stupid now? They were taken advantage of and still acted foolishly. I have never seen such a thing before. It's so ridiculous!" Lin Xi cursed while holding a cigarette in her mouth.

He had originally quit smoking, but now he started smoking again out of annoyance.

"Don't be anxious. Let's find some connections first. Those people's parents must be more anxious than us, and they will try harder than us to find connections." Xu Yun said while looking at the phone.

"How can I not be anxious? I was lectured for two hours yesterday. Forget it, let's not talk about it!" Lin Xi waved her hands irritably, subconsciously looked at her watch and said, "Why hasn't Chen Xi come yet? He has no sense of community at all."

"I'm here now. Can my coming solve the problem?" A slow male voice came into Linxi's ears.

"This time, it's not just our unit that is holding a meeting. All units related to studying abroad will be present. As the largest international student association in the world, and the offender is one of our members, the punishment is inevitable..." Lin Xi made a bitter face and threw away the cigarette butt and stomped it out.

"What can we do? There are all kinds of stupid birds in a big forest." Chen Xi joked.

"Are you blaming me for lowering the threshold to recruit members?" Lin Xi squinted at the other person unhappily.

"I didn't say that. Most of the international students in China are those whose parents have strict control over them before, but they let themselves go after they go abroad. If you can avoid accepting some of them who are mentally retarded and prone to getting into trouble, then don't do it.

Since the financial crisis, more and more people have gone abroad. If you recruit all of them, we will be the world's largest gang. Hehe, it would be strange if such an organization is not targeted by others!

Have you seen The Legend of Su Qier? There were so many beggars in the movie that even the emperor couldn't sleep because of their worry. "Chen Xi patted Lin Xi's shoulder.

"Now is not the time to blame each other. Let's think about how to solve it." At this time, Xu Yun, who had always been unruly, actually showed sensible behavior.

"What else can we do? We have to do whatever the higher-ups say and obey all the arrangements!" Chen Xi spread his hands.

In the face of the state apparatus, these people have no choice at all.

"This won't do. We need to fight for it. It's an individual who made a mistake, not the entire organization." At this time, Lin Xi was still naively thinking about her own little calculations.

"Can you have some political sense? You are older than both of us and graduated and entered society early. Don't be so naive." Chen Xi shook his head helplessly. Not everyone has political sense. People like Chen Yifeng and Feng Yun are good at business, but not in this aspect.

"I heard that many people from overseas study agencies came to this meeting. Some foolish international students were deceived by some community activity organizations arranged by the agencies..." Xu Yun added.

Speaking of study abroad agencies, more than half of them are scams. The large agencies in first-tier cities are relatively formal, while the agencies in second- and third-tier cities are simply not worth mentioning. Anyway, as long as they get you abroad, they will not care about anything else. If you are unlucky, they may even cheat you out of money.

"Come in, it's almost time." Lin Xi looked at her watch.

"Mr. President, you were able to get approval from higher-ups to legally establish the Returned Overseas Chinese Association, so you must know someone there. Why do you look so worried?" Chen Xi asked in a low voice as they walked.

"Haha, you think the country is my family business. This matter can't be solved by just a few words of pleading. As the president, I will definitely be the one who is criticized the most. I was scolded for two hours yesterday!"

"Oh? Who scolded you? Which department? Tell me."

"Don't ask too much about social affairs." Lin Xi glared at Chen Xi.

Xu Yun and Chen Xi looked at each other and then shook their heads, meaning that she didn't get anything out of the other person.

Lin Xi deliberately revealed that she was scolded by someone above her, but she didn't say who scolded her, which made people imagine. She said this just to tell Chen Xi that he had someone above him. When everything was settled, all the credit would go to him.

"See you again, you despicable villain!" Just as the three of them were going upstairs, a young man suddenly appeared on the stairs. He was none other than the president of the New Returnees Association of Dahua Country - Yang Xiao.

Yang Xiao folded his arms and looked down at Lin Xi.

He already knew about the affairs of those foreign students, so he waited for them again on purpose, intending to mock them harshly.

In Yang Xiao's mind, the matter of registering the association's name was almost as vengeance as the revenge of having his wife stolen from him.

"What are you doing here?" Lin Xi was slightly stunned. The other party's appearance was obviously beyond his expectation. "Of course you are here for a meeting. If you can come, why can't I come?" Yang Xiao said with a smile.

"Meeting?" Lin Xi's face changed and she instantly thought of a possibility.

Not only him, Chen Xi and Xu Yun also looked at each other.

"Hey, it's getting late. I'm going in." Yang Xiao looked at his watch, said something, and left without looking back.

"President, who is this person?" Xu Yun asked knowingly.

If Chen Xi hadn't known that Xu Yun and Yang Xiao had been in contact, he would have probably been kept in the dark.

"Just an old friend, go upstairs." Lin Xi didn't explain much and strode upstairs.

The conference room was already full of people, most of whom were middle-aged. These young faces seemed a little different.

"These are the president, vice president, and secretary general of the Overseas Returnees Association."

"I know. I watched the last live broadcast."

"Oh, this time we're going to have something interesting to watch. Those foreign students are all members of their association."

"What a good show! Let's worry about ourselves. This incident is also related to the agency. Although those students were not sent abroad by us, the higher-ups will definitely use a stick to hit all the agencies..."

"What are you afraid of? We just need to send them out. As for what the international students do, that's their own business."

"If something happens to students at school, the school is also responsible. Although we are not a school, we follow the service tenet of a formal agency and provide follow-up services even after sending students abroad. For minors, we also need to communicate with their guardians at any time and convey their living conditions to the parents of the students..."

Several middle-aged men and women sat on chairs and talked in low voices.

I have to say that some big real estate agencies are still very professional. Although they charge for follow-up services, they really do the work for money.

"Well, the time is up, let's start the meeting now. Let me introduce myself first, I am Hou Tao from the Ministry of Education. This is Feng Xilian from the China Scholarship Council, and this is..." On the stage, a square-faced man wearing glasses began to speak.

"What does the Study Abroad Fund Management Committee do? Why have I never heard of it?" Xu Yun, who was sitting next to Chen Xi, asked, covering her mouth.

"The China Scholarship Council is responsible for the admission and specific management of foreign students under the national plan. This organization usually works closely with the education department to jointly promote the smooth progress of study abroad affairs..." Chen Xi explained in a low voice.

It is estimated that more than 90% of people have never heard of this organization, and even those who have studied abroad hardly know about it, but most countries have established such an organization.

Hou Tao cleared his throat and continued, "Let me first say a few words about this incident of international students taking photos.

"Every word and action of international students overseas represents the image and interests of our country. Therefore, we must attach great importance to it and take effective measures to prevent similar incidents from happening again."

He paused, his eyes sharper: "Youth Returnees Association, as an important bridge connecting overseas students with China, you have a particularly heavy responsibility. We must strengthen the patriotic education of members, let them always remember their roots and souls, and safeguard the dignity and interests of the country no matter where they go. At the same time, we must also strengthen the members' awareness of prevention, so that they cannot be used as spy tools by those with ulterior motives, and must not do things that harm the interests of the country and the nation because of momentary impulse and ignorance.

I know that there are so many overseas students now, and it is difficult for one association to cover everything. But this is not a reason for us to shirk our responsibilities. Therefore, we have decided that the Youth Overseas Returnees Association and the Dahua Guoxin Overseas Returnees Association will jointly serve as the main management organizations, and local overseas returnees associations will be established in various places to form a nationwide overseas student management network. Through this network, we want to bring every overseas student into our sight and ensure their safety and health. "

He looked at Lin Xi and Yang Xiao in the audience, both of whom looked solemn. "Of course, we must also strengthen our own construction. We must establish sound rules and regulations, clarify the rights and obligations of members, and strengthen exchanges and cooperation among members. At the same time, we must also actively maintain contact with foreign study abroad institutions, consulates, etc., and jointly provide high-quality services and guarantees for international students..."

"Are you kidding me? Isn't this dividing us?" Xu Yun cursed in a low voice.

"There's nothing we can do about it. When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. But I think this method may not be very effective. The local international student association... this idea... count how many cities there are in the country. Haha, can this be managed..." Chen Xi has a different opinion.

Because according to the memory of the previous life, many overseas student associations were set up in various places, but they were no different from decorations. The differentiation did play a role, but it also indirectly led to the overseas students becoming a scattered group.

As more and more people go abroad, many people come to think that the International Students Association is a useless organization. That's because most of the associations they see are local, so they simply choose not to join.

Most returnees from studying abroad actually have similar ideas to Linxi’s. They think that resources should be integrated.

If not an association for returned overseas Chinese, what organization should we establish?

These people thought for a long time and invented an organization called the Young Entrepreneurs Association of a certain city.

This kind of organization can actually make more profits for returnees, because the economies of many small places need decent enterprises to drive development. These returnees donate money, create jobs, build roads, etc., which directly makes them praised by local leaders and they also receive a lot of good treatment.

Lin Xi was so angry when she heard Hou Tao's words, but she couldn't get angry so she could only put on a smile.

At this point, Hou Tao changed the subject and looked at the representatives of overseas study agencies in the audience: "As an important channel for international students to go abroad, the role of agencies cannot be ignored. What I want to emphasize is that you can't just send international students abroad and think everything will be fine. You must also actively pay attention to the life and study of international students abroad and help them solve the difficulties and problems they encounter. You can't go to others just because they encounter difficulties and let others take advantage of them. We must jointly safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of international students and the dignity of our country."

"Clap clap clap!"

"Clap!"

Hou Tao's speech won warm applause from the audience.

After all, the intermediaries are businessmen, so they will certainly support what the leaders say in the meeting. As for whether they will implement it privately, no one knows.

There are so many study abroad agencies around the world, and the one in China is just an office. Even if they don’t implement it, can the leaders still manage things abroad?
But they still had to pretend to be good, so these people clapped harder than anyone else.

"As the world's largest association of returnees, the members of the Youth Returnees Association include not only graduated students but also people who are currently studying abroad. Several of the people this time are from your Returnees Association. The problem is quite serious. After our meeting and discussion, we decided to send one person to stay in your association to be responsible for supervision and ideological education work... Now, please invite several leaders of the Youth Returnees Association and the Dahua Guoxin Returnees Association to say a few words." Feng Xilian of the Study Abroad Fund Management Committee said a few words casually and motioned for Chen Xi and others to speak.

Shit, he even has to go up there and speak. That bastard Linxi must have been prepared for it and didn’t even tell us in advance.

When Chen Xi and Xu Yun heard the leader's words, they immediately greeted Lin Xi. (End of this chapter)
