Liu Qiangdong: He donated 120,000 yuan during the Wenchuan earthquake, wrote a "suicide note" and went to the disaster area for rescue
Liu Qiangdong, chairman of the board of directors of JD.com Group, said in a sharing session today that if a disaster occurs anywhere in the country, the warehouse managers of JD.com in the area near the disaster have the right and must donate emergency goods. Why do warehouse managers have such rights and obligations? Liu Qiangdong said that he decided to go to the disaster area the day after the 5.12 earthquake in 2008. "At that time, I had 120,000 yuan of personal money at home. After donating, I couldn't sleep, so I called a group of off-road friends and made an appointment to drive from Beijing to Pingwu County near the center of the Wenchuan earthquake to help with the rescue." Liu Qiangdong revealed that before he went, he sent a letter similar to a suicide note to all employees, "explaining what to do if I can't come back."
