AngelaBaby and Huang Xiaoming hold fairytale wedding
by Chary Liu on Thu, Oct 08, 2015
Chinese actress AngelaBaby (Running Man Movie) and Huang Xiaoming, a top Chinese actor (Summer's Desire), held a beautiful wedding yesterday at the Shanghai Exhibition Center. They have been in a relationship for five years.
They were spotted In Taiwan in 2009 by the paparazzi, but they both claimed to be friends then. On February 28, 2014 AngelaBaby held a birthday party in Hong Kong and Huang Xiaoming showed up as a big surprise with hundreds of roses and a luxury car. Huang Xiaoming even claimed AngelaBaby is "his woman."
During the Chinese Spring Festival in 2015, Huang Xiaoming took AngelaBaby to his hometown Shandong and got a marriage certificate there in May. Now Huang Xiaoming and AngelaBaby chose the Shanghai Exhibition Center for their wedding. Over 2000 guests are invited, including Fan Bingbing, Zhao Wei, and even Jack Ma, CEO of Alibaba. In the photo below, "ah" stands for the first letter of the couple, and it is displayed on the Shanghai Exhibition Center.

捐款4億 竟然挨罵
Hon Hai's Terry Gou donates US$218m to biomedical research CNA
Terry Gou, chairman of Taiwan's Hon Hai Precision Industry, donated all of his cash dividends from his company Thursday to fund biomedical research at National Taiwan University (NTU).
The donation — estimated to be worth NT$7.1 billion (US$217.6 million) — will be made through the YongLin Healthcare Foundation, founded by Gou, as a new investment in the bio-medical project with NTU that is now estimated to have cost NT$18 billion (US$554 million), the foundation said in a statement.
In 2007, the foundation signed a memorandum of understanding with NTU in which Gou promised to donate a cancer hospital to NTU and develop a bio-medical engineering program. The hospital is scheduled to be completed by 2017.
The Problem With a $400 Million Harvard Gift
Hedge-fund mogul John Paulson's $400 million donation to Harvard University showcases what's wrong with big higher-education endowments and the megaphilanthropy that swells them, according to Quartz.
The gift Wednesday to Harvard's School of Engineering and Applied Sciences exemplifies a trend of billionaires "eager to give money to institutions that clearly don’t need it," writes Matt Phillips, who reports on finance and markets for the digital business-news outlet.
Harvard, with a $36-billion endowment, is the country's wealthiest university. Mr. Phillips notes the increasing share of higher-education philanthropy going to a handful of elite institutions and suggests policy makers consider changing tax laws that may create incentives for them to stockpile massive endowments.
Mr. Paulson, a Harvard alumnus, drew criticism from other online commentators for giving so much to his wealthy alma mater rather than to programs to help the needy, The Chronicle of Higher Education and The Washington Post note. A Wall Street Journal editorial laid the criticism to "envy and snark" and said people "ought to salute [Mr. Paulson's] willingness to give so much of [his fortune] away, to whomever he wants."

巨頭捐款4億 竟然挨罵 by 邱鴻安
華爾街巨頭鮑爾森(John Paulson)，日前捐了4億元給哈佛，但竟然挨罵，消息公布後，網上一遍罵聲。去年，香港富商陳氏兄弟捐3.5億給哈佛，中國地產商潘石屹和張欣夫婦捐款給哈佛，也同樣受質疑。
......哈佛2013-14學年的投資回報達15%，以360億元計，一年投資所得，就達50億，是4億的12倍。對於4億捐款，哈佛顯然沒有急切需要。獲得鮑爾森巨款的哈佛工程學院，也不見得立即就要動用款項。
除了哈佛沒有需要，還有一種令人更困擾的情況。自皮克提(Thomas Piketty)去年春天出版畫時代著作「21世紀資本論」後，美國1%與99%的「收入不平等」已無須辯論，因為這已被證明為事實；換言之，美國社會中的財富越來越集中，富者越富，貧者越貧。鮑爾森捐巨款給哈佛，正好反映出財富集中的實際情況。
皮克提用來證明財富集中的一個例子，剛好是哈佛等名校所擁有的巨額捐款。從1990至2010的20年，這些大學平均每年的投資回報為10.2%，而只擁有小額捐款的大學，期間的投資回報只有5%，即哈佛等的投資收入是其他大學的兩倍，這種情況並非偶然出現，而是20年都如此，這就反映出財富集中。
哈佛等為什麼會有如此高的回報？因為它有很好的管理團隊，而且因為資金多，可作互補性的投資，譬如投資避險基金、創投資金和私企等。
我們可以想像，哈佛獲得4億捐款後，無須立即動用款項，只將它撥入360億之中，再作投資。哈佛會投資給什麼人呢？必然是像鮑爾森這樣的避險基金管理人。鮑爾森1994年創辦他的避險基金，起動資金只200萬，現已增至200億，他的身家高達112億元，全球排113名，單是2013年，他的收入就高達23億。
鮑爾森捐巨款的消息於6月3日公布，6月4日灣區也有一項捐款消息，一名匿名者捐了5000萬給舊金山加大，用來設立一個專門治療精神病人的中心，並將臨床治療用到研究上，希望對精神分裂症和自閉症等找出突破性的治療方法。這樣的捐款要比鮑爾森的4億捐款有意義得多。
捐款給哈佛挨罵的主要原因是，哈佛是全球最富有的大學，累積捐款360億，它並不需要捐款，還有其他更需要捐款的大學，為什麼不捐款貧者、卻一定要捐給富者？ ......
黃曉明Angelababy世紀婚禮登場！
黃曉明與Angelababy的婚禮今晚（10月8日）在上海展覽中心舉行，婚禮之所以選在10月8日，是因兩人當初因為Angelababy在上海的外婆生病而拉近距離，便決定以外婆生日的前一天作為大婚之日。這場72桌，共有500多名賓客的世紀婚禮，主題為「中國味」，一開始的迎娶黃曉明便是與伴郎們穿著中式唐裝迎娶。這場婚禮受關注程度不輸跨年演唱會
黃曉明一手包辦婚禮，大小事不斷，加上明星陣容包括吳京、黃子韜、王思聰，李雲迪及台灣歌手林昕陽擔任伴郎外，李冰冰、馮紹峰、杜淳、李晨、鄭愷、王思聰、倪妮、趙薇也都出席。身為伴郎之一的黃渤說，最美的人和最帥的人在一起了，很像童話。而第一次當伴娘的李冰冰則說，超級緊張，今天還特別穿球鞋要來搶捧花。原本要出席的范冰冰因為工作關係臨時取消，不過范冰冰也在微博上說：「今天是個大喜的日子！祝福曉明哥和baby步入結婚禮堂！因為工作原因，很遺憾不能到場祝賀，不過禮金不能少，接住我的大紅包！」范冰冰又留言說，自己要搶做兩人未來寶貝的乾媽。看如星光大道般的賓客們到場照片
上海展覽中心現場104公尺高的星星塔樓前，掛上大大「ah」字樣的看板，代表著黃曉明和Angelababy的英文名字縮寫。婚禮會場內，則是佈置成宛如皇家宮廷花園風格。就連送給媒體的禮物與休息區也打點的非常精致，現場佈滿了可愛的小餅乾，甚至有JO MALONE香氛陪襯，黃曉明深情貼心的細膩完全展現在這場世紀婚禮中。婚禮開場，播放了由黃嘉千女兒夏天所飾演Angelababy小時候的短片，Angelababy父親把女兒的手交給黃曉明，兩人在主婚人吳宇森和證婚人王中軍的見證下緊握雙手，交換戒指，互訂終生。隨後黃曉明說：「其實我今天真的很緊張，但我的baby你完蛋了，因為我從來沒有對一個女人這麼好過，除了我媽，我想要把所有最好的東西都給你，以後我要把你寵壞了，因為這樣別人就沒法把你搶走。」Angelababy則說：很高興人生的路上可以遇到你，以後如果遇到什麼不開心的事情，我都會在你的身後陪伴著你，這是我的夢想，希望到最後，你會說這輩子找我是正確的，快樂的。
