Chapter 398: Social Responsibility

Ren Pingsheng's proposal, as well as his first fundraising method of "national participation" on Weibo, soon became a hot news event on the Internet, not only on Weibo, but also on major portals, forums, and social tools.

In the face of this major disaster, former competitors and shopping mall enemies have abandoned their past suspicions and selflessly spread the fundraising for Ren Pingsheng and Weibo, @任平生的倡议书微博的转发量在当晚已经超越了千万级别, which means that Ren Pingsheng's personal donation will exceed 20 million yuan.

At the same time, aid and donations from all walks of life, all over the country, and overseas countries are also constantly flying to China.

According to Ren Pingsheng's indication, Weibo timely launched the "China Charity Donation List" 512 special column, which is divided into four major sections according to the nature of the category.

The first is "donations from various regions in China", including all provinces, municipalities and regions in China.

At present, the Hong Kong SAR government has allocated HK$350 million to support the disaster area one day after the earthquake.

The second place is Nanyue Province, including donations from all walks of life amounting to 240 million Hong Kong dollars;

the third place is Hanhai City, including donations from all walks of life amounting to 200 million yuan;

In addition, the Macao SAR government mobilized 110 million yuan for disaster relief after the earthquake, and the non-governmental sector also launched a large-scale donation campaign, and the TW regional government donated NT$2 billion to the Shuchuan earthquake-stricken area on May 13 and organized a private fundraising activity.

......

The second is "contributions from all countries in the world", including sovereign states, national organizations and international organizations.

The first was the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which donated $50 million in cash and $10 million in supplies;

the second was the United Arab Emirates, with a donation of $50 million;

The third place is Canada, with a government donation of more than 31 million Canadian dollars and a private donation of nearly 30 million Canadian dollars;

......

The third is "donations from social people and celebrities", including film and television stars, sports stars, and social celebrities.

The first place was basketball superstar Kobe Bryant with a donation of $5 million;

the second is film and television superstar Chenlong and Yang Shoucheng, the boss of Yingdi Group, with a total donation of 10 million yuan;

......

Fourth, "entrepreneur donations", as the backbone of the society, entrepreneurs have become the main force in this fundraising.

The first place was Li Ka-shing of Changhe Group, with a personal donation of 130 million yuan;

the second place is Run Run Shaw of Shaw Pictures, with a personal donation of 100 million yuan;

The third place is Lee Shau Kee of Henderson Land, with a personal donation of 100 million yuan;

In addition, Chen Guangbiao of Huangpu Regeneration announced a donation of 100 million yuan, and diamond tycoon Li Houlin personally donated 20 million yuan, etc., which have also become representatives of entrepreneurs who are enthusiastic about public welfare in this earthquake area fundraising.

......

Ren Pingsheng's current donation of 10 million yuan is not much in the list of entrepreneurs.

However, because he was the first entrepreneur to speak out and donate a large amount of money, he was highly praised and appreciated by all walks of life on the Internet and media.

Moreover, Ren Pingsheng's donation is not a one-time one-time event, as the number of retweets of @Ren Pingsheng's proposal Weibo continues to grow, the amount of his donation is also accumulating.

This kind of practice of donating money and encouraging and mobilizing the public to participate in charity has played a good positive effect in the society and has become a new model and new way of playing charity fundraising.

Of course, this new way of playing can only be played by the meager emerging social media.

And Ren Pingsheng has occupied the commanding heights of public opinion and image in this public welfare action for earthquake relief.

.......

However, in this good atmosphere of the whole people donating and helping the disaster area, there are also some discordant voices.

Due to the different systems of various countries and the different operation methods of various enterprises, many countries and enterprises have been slow to respond to this national support for the Wenchuan disaster area, and have not expressed their donations, or the donations have been donated, but the gap between the donated funds and their own strength is too large, which has aroused criticism from netizens.

For example, some of the world's largest and second largest economies have provided China with too little money and supplies in the earthquake compared to their own economies, which has caused some dissatisfaction among the domestic people.

Some people feel that these world powers have no sense of responsibility at all in times of crisis, which is in stark contrast to their arrogant face of interfering in the internal affairs of other countries, which makes people laugh off their big teeth;

Some people also say that this is not surprising, don't look at a certain country's face that the world can hit wherever it wants, but now the internal contradictions are very big, and the economy is also going downhill.

There are also those who believe that a neighboring country has donated too little money in the current crisis, and it seems that it is suspected of discriminating against our country.

Many people echoed him:

"That's right, little RB is small-minded, seeing that something happened in our family, he was there to gloat, and the little aid he gave was not as good as Indian Ah San, isn't it obvious that he is bullying people?"

"That's right, our country has always been tolerant and generous, and we exempted RB from post-war indemnities at the beginning, but I didn't expect that the other party didn't appreciate it at all, and it was cheap and behaved, but now it doesn't know how to reciprocate. ”

"Yes, the RB people are white-eyed wolves, we are too good to them, they will bite you instead, in history, we have never invaded them, but they want to invade our country. ”

These discussions have become a trend on the Internet and on Weibo, and discerning netizens have begun to measure the amount of donations raised among various entrepreneurs by referring to Weibo's "China Charity Donation List" ranking.

Netizens have found that among the donations made so far by entrepreneurs, mainland real estate developers and Internet entrepreneurs have generally donated very little, and some have not donated at all, which has aroused the anger of netizens.

Since 2000, the best and most profitable development of various industries in China is real estate and the Internet, and there are a large number of real estate developers and Internet elites on the rich list every year, and these entrepreneurs have taken advantage of the momentum of the country's rapid development to earn a lot of wealth in the process of the rise of a great power, which is a well-known thing.

Although the tide rises, ordinary people have also gained a lot of benefits from the development of the country, but compared to these entrepreneurs, the gap is still too big.

Netizens look at it, I make thousands of dollars a month, all donate a few months' wages, and you earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a day, and now you donate hundreds of thousands.

Under the combination of various factors, the anger of netizens is uncontrollable, and they have compared the annual rich list and the "China Charity Donation List" to find out the rich people on the rich list who have not yet donated, or the amount of donations is small, and they scolded them one by one @ their Weibo accounts.

For a time, for these entrepreneurs who stood by in the face of the national catastrophe, they attacked them on the Internet, and there was even more noise on Weibo.

Of course, Ren Pingsheng, who took the lead in the earthquake and took the lead in making an example, although he played the roles of a real estate developer and an Internet entrepreneur, he was not criticized or attacked in any way, but was regarded as a model entrepreneur with a sense of social responsibility, and was praised by netizens as a representative of the positive image among entrepreneurs.

And Ren Pingsheng, for the public opinion controversy war set off on Weibo, did not participate, oppose, or interfere, but just quietly fought on the sidelines, observing the development of the situation.
