Chen Tianqiao-Founder and CEO of Shanda Network. In the 1990s, Chen Tianqiao graduated from Fudan University, and soon after working, Chen Tianqiao chose to start a business. At that time, China's network industry was in a period of vigorous development. And Chen Tianqiao's grand network, also eat the dividend of the times, developed rapidly.
In 2000, Shanda Network formally entered the interactive entertainment industry (also known as online games) and achieved brilliant results. At that time, the online game industry in China was still in its infancy, and the legend represented by Shanda was the originator of online games in China. With the online game Legend, Shanda Network became an Internet giant in China. It can be said that Chen Tianqiao and other Shanda Internet companies also made a fortune with this game.
With a series of online games such as Legend, Shanda Network has gained a firm foothold in the Internet industry in China. Until today, Chen Tianqiao's Shanda Network is also one of the few network companies in China that can compete with Malaysia's Tencent Empire. Become one of the best undertakers and founders of China's game industry.
In 2004, with the joining of Emperor Tang Jun, Shanda Group grew bigger and bigger, and together with Tencent Group, it occupied half of the online game industry in China. At the same time, Shanda Network, based on online game industry, marched into other fields of Internet industry and achieved great success. Even, the investment of Shanda Network covers many aspects of various industries and countries.
With the continuous development of Shanda Company, in 20 12, Mr. and Mrs. Chen Tianqiao were among the richest people in China 100 with a net worth of 7.06 billion RMB.
It can be said that Chen Tianqiao's success is inseparable from China. Chen Tianqiao and his Shanda Group have hitched a ride on the Internet development in China and become one of the most outstanding figures in the Internet industry in China.
Donating American scientific research caused an uproar.
In his early years, Chen Tianqiao made a fortune with the help of China Internet, and at the same time he did not forget to repay the society. As CEO, Chen Tianqiao has always been very enthusiastic about charity during the period when Shanda Network has achieved many development achievements.
Since 2002, Shanda, where Chen Tianqiao is located, has participated in the construction of Hope Project in China, and established a number of Hope Primary Schools. In Wenchuan, Yushu and other earthquakes, donations reached tens of millions. In many difficult times, Chen Tianqiao's Shanda Group also walked in the forefront of Internet companies, taking the lead in bringing up the steps of donation in the Internet industry.
Over the years, Shanda Group has been enthusiastically wandering in various charitable donation occasions, and Chen Tianqiao's kindness has also been praised by many people.
At the end of 20 16, Chen Tianqiao's donation behavior brought him a lot of discussion. 20 16, 16 On February 7th, Chen Tianqiao announced the establishment of a fund of 10 billion dollars to support brain science research, and donated 8 billion dollars to American research institutions in the name of himself and his wife.
His generous donation also attracted a lot of discussion for himself. It caused an uproar in public opinion for a time. Some people say that he is so generous in promoting human cognition of brain science, and this generous behavior is commendable; However, some people say that he provided such a huge sum of money for American scientific research, but he didn't think of helping his country's scientific research progress. This behavior is biased. All kinds of remarks are supported and opposed.
In the face of various comments on the Internet, Chen Tianqiao also made a positive response. He once said bluntly that China's lack of scientific research funds was none of his business and he was not to blame. He also explained that he provided huge funds to American scientific research institutions because American scientific research institutions studied the human brain more deeply and were more likely to succeed.
Chen Tianqiao's remark that "the lack of money for scientific research in China is none of my business" provided huge funds for scientific research in the United States, which caused the conquest of netizens for a time. Many people said that his words and deeds were really inappropriate and even chilling. What's more, he made remarks to get Chen Tianqiao out of China.
In this regard, we should look at it from a rational perspective.
Chen Tianqiao's response to the donation of scientific research time in the United States is indeed biased, and even some remarks are disappointing. However, we should look at this matter rationally.
Chen Tianqiao has provided a lot of financial support to the United States, but he and Shanda Group have also made a lot of contributions to charity in China. With the development of Shanda Network, Chen Tianqiao has made great contributions to the society. These contributions can't be ignored, and we can't deny his previous contributions because of this incident.
At the same time, Chen Tianqiao donated his private property, so we shouldn't ask him how to use the money.
From a legal point of view, how he uses his property is his business, and donation is a personal act. We shouldn't ask more of others. We can't restrict other people's behavior, we can only say that his words and behavior are somewhat disappointing.
It can only be said that we are not qualified to ask others to do something with the money earned by others. If there is something wrong with his behavior, there will naturally be laws to punish him.
Let's just say there is something wrong with his donation, but there is no problem. We don't need to attack him.
The cause at that time, the fruit at this time.
Many years ago, Chen Tianqiao shifted its investment focus to foreign countries. However, due to the slow development of foreign economy in recent years, the domestic economy has a bright prospect and the market is getting bigger and bigger. Chen Tianqiao wants to turn its development focus back to the domestic market. However, the consequences of his misconduct and remarks frequently hindered his development in China.
Heaven has reincarnation, and heaven waits for no man. It was Chen Tianqiao's misconduct and remarks that made him lose his heart, so his development has been blocked frequently in recent years. The soil of enterprise development is the people of the country. They are businessmen and take money from the people. At the same time, they can't leave the people's position. If an enterprise wants to develop for a long time, it cannot leave the original soil.
However, businessmen are all profit-seeking. Chen Tianqiao chose foreign scientific research institutions to invest in those years because foreign scientific research forces are stronger and can give him more investment returns. The domestic research strength in this field is also insufficient, which should arouse our attention. There are also many shortcomings in the development of domestic scientific research institutions. There are plane trees at home and plane trees at home.
