Morning Bafitegets Meet the Media "charity is voluntary, it's not forced." Yesterday's list of the rich are not announced, "said" advised to donate "said" motives "said" difficult "Washington (reporter Shaozehui) this morning, Warren Buffett, the world's richest man gates and the hundreds of media from home and abroad talk about charity, and answered the media about charity questions. In response to the previously sensitive "advice to donate" question, Gates said at the meeting that "charity is voluntary, not forced, but I think we have the responsibility to repay the community and the people."  As for what the Chinese rich were talking about at the dinner party, Buffett relaxed the "privacy" and said the list would not be announced. Say "advise" donate and not donate it's his own business. Talking about Last night's charity dinner, Gates and Warren Buffett both said they had a great time communicating with the Chinese rich.  Mr. Gates and Mr. Buffett said they had introduced charitable experiences last night, had a panel discussion and shared ideas and experiences about philanthropy, with nearly 30 people speaking for charity. In response to the media's most-talked-about "persuasion", two said charity was a voluntary matter. ' Many people don't think about philanthropy when they're young, but now they realize that no matter what age you can start doing charity, everyone has a different view of charity, such as how much money to give, or what kind of projects and careers and areas to donate, ' Mr. Gates said. They do not have a specific opinion of others making donations. "It's their decision, they can choose for themselves." "said Gates. Buffett also said he did not want to exert pressure on any of China's rich.  When they do philanthropy in America, they don't do it, they don't get people to sign contracts, or they have to agree on what to do, it's their decision. "Motivation" China billionaire world second at the morning meeting, a reporter asked why first came to China rather than go to Europe and the rich to meet, because Europe, like the United States has a long-term accumulation of generations of people. Mr Gates said the choice was due to the fact that the number of Chinese billionaires (in dollars) ranked second in the world, while others were hard to qualify. European philanthropists and foundations have been running for a long time, and China is at a stage where philanthropy is just getting started.  China's new generation of rich people are not particularly aware of philanthropy, they also have a lot of charitable ideas can be exchanged. Buffett said they did not want to make the charity a "global Tour", philanthropy in Europe, North America through the accumulation of several generations, the mechanism has been established. And wealth is a relatively new thing for China.  It is reported that next year they will choose to launch a similar event in India to explore opportunities to develop philanthropy in India. Say "difficult" to do charity can't be afraid of failure at the morning meeting, two of them talked about the development of philanthropy in the United States. Gates said that in the United States, education and health are the two largest areas of acceptance of philanthropy, and charitiesUse the money to improve people's educational level and health. Buffett said that more than 2% of the GDP in the United States in the year as a good money into the social development.  Much is not donated by the foundation, but by donations made by many individuals. When it comes to the biggest difficulties in philanthropy, Buffett thinks the biggest difficulty is how to do it well, because the rich are rich, they worry about doing poorly in the new field of philanthropy and need to find institutions and people to trust to help them do it. Buffett admits that he had no confidence when he first started doing it with gates, but as the experience accumulated, the more successful he was, the more confident he was. Gates also said that the best place to spend money is his charitable concerns. And now he is still learning, and said, do charity can not be afraid of failure. J049 Santong J124 Live playback micro bo (http://t.sina.com.cn) live charity scene for last night's charity dinner, Lafayette Castle was ready: security personnel in advance training, the castle guests were invited ahead of time, banquet venue in a small island in the lake, guests arrived after the closure of the bridge circuit. Security measures against the super-rich are also stringent to prevent counterfeiting. The meeting of Huangpu Investment Chairman Chen said that the dinner is heavily guarded, light security on the three floor.  The first floor to rely on the car card entry, the second layer by invitation, and into the ballroom incredibly to each person's unique password! So sufficient preparation, for the media interview created a lot of trouble, although the major media have to interview, but the organizers are "in the future," the details of the venue "killed also don't say." So, can enter the venue of the rich become the authoritative publisher of information, Soho China Chairman Pan Shiyi, Zhang Xin couple, Vanke board chairman Wang Shi is in the dinner site with micro-blog mobile phone information, the most enthusiastic is pan Shiyi, he constantly use their own mobile phone will dinner dynamic, Buffett speech content,  Live Photos and so on to their own Sina Weibo, to become a common netizen to understand the charity rich dinner at the scene of the channel. The field has a rich enthusiasm live broadcast, outside the field has reporters, plus Weibo itself gathered a large number of netizens comments, a three-dimensional reporting camp has been formed. Live Charity dinner, also become a Sina Weibo marketing. Jia Zhangshan J159 Reporter Quick comment on the charity tour gates and Warren Buffett are not the first to come to China, but they are definitely the most concerned. From the large media to tap the rich to participate in the list, explore the dinner venue and squatting in Lafayette "Rob News" posture, the two economic tycoons jointly launched a charity dinner, feeling completely interpreted into a gossip news.  It seems that no one is paying attention to the impact of the "Bobby" Charity Trip on Chinese philanthropy, and how rich people's donations will affect society. In addition to gossip, the charity trip also reveals a strong commercial flavor. From Buffett's itinerary can be seen in Shenzhen, Beijing, Changsha three places, in addition to the 29th charity dinner,The rest of the time is almost all in BYD's business activities, netizens say "the biggest winner of the charity dinner is BYD, the suspicion that the old bar is to give BYD business Walk show." "In the Chinese dictionary, has been a" good thing not to be named "as the mainstream view, but now the times have changed, do charity also pay attention to high-profile. But it's better to have a less-than-tasty charity trip in China. Having free and rich planning for a charity dinner is a good way to save it and give it to someone who needs it, and it's definitely better than a European-style castle with a big, heavily guarded and wealthy Chinese tycoon talking about philanthropy. Shaozehui J049 "Naked donation" is suitable for China "Bobby" is not sure Gates and Warren Buffett, the two richest people in the world, this June has invited the United States rich generosity, in life or after death donated at least half of the wealth to engage in charitable undertakings. The fundraising campaign will begin with a list of Forbes magazine's 400 richest Americans and will expand to the rest of the world.  At present, 40 families in the United States have agreed to join the "Pledge of wealth donation" to ensure that most of their wealth is invested in philanthropy in return for the rest of his life or death. Then gates and Mr. Buffett said they would go on a "charity trip" to China, inviting 50 Chinese millionaires to dinner, exchanging information on charitable work in China, understanding the profile of Chinese philanthropy and sharing experiences of how donations contribute to society and the world.  The "Charity Trip" was soon interpreted as two people going to China to "lobby" the rich for donations, so the charity dinner has become a "Hongmenyan", there are reports that the invited rich people worried about "being persuaded to donate" and refused to attend, for a time who "have the guts" to attend the dinner, who "no Love" refused to attend the media is the most concerned about the topic. The invited rich have different views on philanthropy.  "China's first good" Chen, the first response to "Bobby Action", announced the full naked donation, but said to participate in the Forbes CEO meeting can not attend the dinner after the Zong said that he would like to donate without persuasion will also donate, do not want to donate who advised also useless, but from the heart, he does not appreciate the easy to donate assets charitable acts. Gates and Buffett also said that the "wealth donation commitment" is only one of many charitable forms. They do not yet understand whether the model is appropriate for China. China has its own specific situation, so China's charitable model will also have its own characteristics.  J049 have something to say. Wang Kaiwen: Purposeful and planned charity, very utilitarian color! Jiang has three: China and the United States are completely different systems. China's rich are more or less in the early stages of their entrepreneurial policies, so their success should be taken for granted.  As for the way is more varied, do not have to learn the American show! Lily in the wind 469_930: Gates? Buffett? Charity, should be aware of these people visit the real purpose? Why do so many countries in the world not go and choose China? What do you want to advertise? ......  Supeko: Charity Don't make a show, especially the "Bobby charity dinner." A few days ago a star entrepreneur to participate in this "Bobby dinner", the public relations company to find I hope to send them to attend the dinner, read the manuscript I said "You have the wrong person."  In the mind, with others to eat a meal made so high-profile, pure hype and show. Life Kuaiyu: China's rich really sad, incredibly many people do not have the courage to participate in the Bobby Charity dinner.  Those who are enthusiastic to attend this charity dinner are the elite of our nation, the state, the people should strongly support them, to those who attend the charity dinner of the rich people who have a conscience salute!
