Earthquake aid tortured the social conscience of the rich, and the top ten rich people pledged 32.5 million.

Yesterday was the second day after the 7.8 magnitude earthquake in Wenchuan County, Sichuan Province, and the number of casualties continued to rise. China's richest man-Hurun Rich List in 2007-also extended a helping hand.

Zhang Yin donated100000 yuan.

The first person to enter the field of vision is Zhang Yin, once the richest woman-the chairman of nine dragons paper. As the vice president of China Overseas Chinese Merchants Investment Enterprise Association, Zhang Yin pledged 65.438 billion yuan to China Red Cross yesterday morning.

Last night, Wang Jiandong, manager of nine dragons paper Administration Department, told the Morning Post reporter, "The boss (Zhang Yin) called me and told me about it." Recently, nine dragons paper was accused of being a "sweatshop", which once again attracted widespread attention. Some people question whether nine dragons paper's generosity to the earthquake zone is related to the so-called "sweatshop". In this regard, Wang Jiandong said, "We are only reporting internally, and the boss (Zhang Yin) asked us to keep a low profile."

Xu Rongmao, Chairman of Shimao Group, donated 6,543,800 yuan; Zhang's Suning Group donated 5 million yuan, Huang Guangyu's Gome donated 7 million yuan, and Guangzhou Group, which controlled tension, donated 500,000 yuan.

As of press time, there is no information that Yang, CITIC Pacific, Evergrande Real Estate Xu and Peng Xiaofeng, the head of Jiangxi Seville Solar Group, the richest man in China, donated money to the Sichuan disaster area.

Fosun International, owned by Guo Guangchang, said it was studying the amount of donations.

In this way, the former 10 rich man worth more than 500 billion yuan in Hurun Edition in 2007 has donated 32.5 million yuan. The total donation is less than the total donation of 45 million yuan from Li Ka-shing, the richest man in China, and his foundation director and company.

Yang and his family did not appear in the overwhelming reports of donating money to the disaster area.

Yang Yanhui, 27, was called "excellent and kind" by his father Yang Guoqiang. The market value of Country Garden Company he holds exceeds 1000 billion yuan, and it is the largest real estate company listed in Hong Kong at present. Yang himself owns 59.5% of the total share capital. The company's land reserve can be equivalent to the total development of Hong Kong in the past 30 years.

The Yang family has always been enthusiastic about charity, but most of their donations are used for education. After her daughter became the richest man, Yang Guoqiang, chairman of Country Garden, donated 30 million yuan to Peking University, Tsinghua and CUHK respectively. In the same year, he donated more than 70 million yuan to establish Guo Liang Vocational Training School in poverty-stricken areas in the central and western regions.

As the Morning Post reporter failed to contact Country Garden yesterday, it is temporarily impossible to know whether the richest woman will donate later.

Where are the developers?

Among the top ten richest people, real estate developers accounted for half, but except Xu Rongmao, who also gave generously in the snowstorm, other real estate developers did not perform well.

It has always been said that the company's financial situation is superior. Pan Shiyi, who has no money to spend, donated 2 million yuan to SOHO China, and R&F Real Estate donated 500,000 yuan in the name of the group, which was half of the donation during the snowstorm at the beginning of the year.

The performance of developers who have always been bullish is inevitably disappointing. Some netizens on the Internet questioned, "The earthquake happened and the house fell down. Where is the developer?" problem

In fact, the absence of real estate developers is not unexpected. In all kinds of charity lists published in the past, they were absent more than once. Every year 10 before Hurun Rich List is always far from 10 before Hurun Charity List.

At the beginning of this year, when there was a snowstorm in Northeast China, the performance of real estate developers was equally shameful. The once-in-a-century ice and snow disaster has caused direct economic losses of hundreds of billions of yuan. As of February 6, 52 enterprises in the Mainland have donated in real names, most of which are enterprises in the field of consumer goods, enterprises in the financial industry and large central enterprises, but no enterprises with real estate as their main business have donated.

Commentators said that as social enterprises, it is their responsibility and obligation for real estate developers to participate in social welfare activities. From a social point of view, all this wealth comes from the people, and it is an obligation to give back to the society when the people are in trouble. Even from a commercial point of view, these developers, advertising effects and good corporate image have all received rich returns. (Liu Xiuhao Lang Xiaoshan Oriental Morning Post)

Central Committee: Emergency allocation of 860 million yuan.

At present, the central government has urgently allocated 860 million yuan of emergency funds for earthquake relief, which is used for emergency rescue and disaster relief and emergency relocation and resettlement of the affected people. The Ministry of Civil Affairs has allocated 60,600 relief tents and 50,000 quilts to the earthquake-stricken areas. Luo Pingfei, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, disclosed the above information to the media at a special press conference held by the the State Council Press Office this afternoon.

Compatriots from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan and overseas Chinese also expressed their willingness to participate in rescue or donate money and materials. For example, the Hong Kong Li Ka-shing Foundation announced today that it will donate 30 million yuan to support the disaster-stricken areas. In addition, the United Nations and some international organizations have expressed their intention to send rescue teams to us.

Red Cross: The money and materials received exceeded 65.438+0.2 billion yuan.

The reporter learned from the Red Cross Society of China that as of May 13 18, the Red Cross Society of China had received donations worth1200 million yuan from all walks of life, and provided disaster relief funds worth1460,000 yuan to the disaster-stricken areas, including tents, quilts, instant food, medicines, drinking water disinfectants and other urgently needed materials.

Jackie Chan, Yang Shoucheng and Li Ka-shing donated money to the earthquake-stricken areas.

Li Ka-shing 13, a famous Hong Kong patriot, decided to donate10 million yuan to help schools in disaster areas rebuild after the disaster through the Ministry of Education.
