Lu Xingyu: Sometimes the driver delivers me, sometimes I drive myself. I can't reveal which car I drive for safety reasons, and I don't want to show off either.
First Impression
Exclusive Interview with Lu Xingyu
Lu Xingyu's donation of school buses this time was relatively high-profile - multiple media outlets were invited to report on-site. In the afternoon of four or five days before the event, around four o'clock, the Education Weekly Department of our newspaper received a landline call starting with 010. Two scholars confirmed the process of identifying Cao Cao's descendants. A person who claimed to be a network staff member proactively informed us about Lu Xingyu's upcoming donation itinerary and asked if we could send a reporter to cover it.
"Staff Member" Calls Our Newspaper:
On this trip, apart from the 250,000 yuan donated for the school bus, did Lu Xingyu pay any additional fees for the Weibo activity? The staff member said no, all accommodation, food, and transportation were covered by Weibo. "Lu Xingyu and her assistant's round-trip tickets to Sichuan were provided by us." When the reporter continued to ask if Weibo was the driving force or publicity team behind Lu Xingyu, the other party replied: "We have so many people we can connect with. She is so controversial, why would we promote her? We can only present her as one of our users and respect all her personal actions. Weibo is not her backstage team."
Chengdu Evening News: Have you reflected on why, until now, whatever you do or say gets questioned?
Last night at 9:50 PM, when Lu Xingyu gave the staff members local specialties of Tongjiang County - silver ear fungus, she changed into another white high-end suit. She said that changing clothes during dinner was her habit, presenting a mature and gentle image of a well-bred young lady.

Lu Xingyu: No, the management fee of 10% of the charity funds is managed by the Youth Foundation. My salary is paid by my father's company, namely the Tianjiu Ruyi Group.

Behind "High-Profile Charity"
Response to Being High-Profile After the "Weibo Incident":
Chengdu Evening News: For this school bus donation, there are still people who question you, saying you're doing this for show and fame. What do you think about that?
Chengdu Evening News: Who pays your regular salary? Is it paid from the 10% management fee of the charity funds?
According to the Weibo staff member, after the Gansu school bus incident on November 16, 2011, Weibo immediately launched the "Safe School Bus" initiative. Soon after, Lu Xingyu posted on Weibo that she was willing to donate a school bus in response to the "Safe School Bus" campaign, ranking breast enlargement products on Taobao. "She wanted to join herself, so we contacted her. Having such an idea is good for the children, and we couldn't possibly refuse," the staff member explained.
Lu Xingyu arrived at Guangyuan from Beijing at 3 PM on June 6th. This time, she returned with only one black assistant. The assistant helped her put her handbag in the car; the lower right corner of the bag had a discreet LV logo. At this moment, Lu Xingyu was without makeup, with her hair tied back, looking like a neighbor's girl.
Chengdu Evening News: How will the donated school buses be supervised later? Some netizens mentioned whether the gasoline issue will be resolved?
Chengdu Evening News: Do you usually drive to work? What kind of car do you drive?
Lu Xingyu: There are no legal or moral issues, we must clarify this. Weibo Recommendation | Today's Weibo Hot Topics
Lu Xingyu: Supervision will be carried out by the local education bureau and traffic management department. We've communicated with both departments, and they will strictly supervise. As for gasoline, the school and education bureau will handle it, I'm just donating the vehicle.
Lu Xingyu: Only during the month when last year's incident happened, but I haven't needed to since then. I don't look like a fairy descending from heaven, I don't look aggressive, I'm very kind-hearted, so I don't need to anymore.
Focus on Bedding Cleanliness
After entering the hotel, Chengdu Evening News reporters noticed that Lu Xingyu paid special attention to cleanliness. She carefully inspected the bedding and found a black mark on one of the pillows, asking the attendant to replace it.
This interview was reported by multiple media outlets present. Was contacting the media proposed by Lu Xingyu herself or was it Weibo's idea? The staff member said it was the result of mutual communication between both parties. "After all, it's a good deed, and it's positive for her too."
The next day during the donation, she switched to a semi-furry black small handbag, not carrying that large LV bag. She wore light makeup and a pair of famous brand shoes with panda heads on the tongues, "I like pandas."
"We Have No Legal or Moral Issues That Need Clarification"
"I'm not afraid of what others say, if you have the ability, come and put on a show yourself" "Only losers have so much envy and hatred"... These sharp and arrogant words come from Lu Xingyu - the 85's girl scolded online as "Luxiamei". Yesterday, under the witness of many media outlets, Lu Xingyu donated a 250,000 yuan "Safe School Bus" to the Wufan Primary School of Nuojiang Town in Tongjiang County, Sichuan Province.
During the interview in Tongjiang, Lu Xingyu strongly responded to the doubts from netizens regarding "showing off charity", "high-profile charity", and performance art.
Lu Xingyu: It's related to social reasons, people's psychology has its root problems. I think they're not attacking me personally, but rather the act of charity itself, and I'm just one of the points. I think it doesn't matter, why punish oneself with others' mistakes? Walk your own path and let others talk.
Carrying a Black Assistant and an LV Bag
Lu Xingyu: Am I being high-profile? Is media exposure considered high-profile? As long as it encourages more people to engage in charity, that's good enough, it should be encouraged.
