Ziyi Zhang Raises Awareness About China Earthquake
Ziyi Zhang and Christian Slater raise awareness for the recent China Earthquake at the Carlton Beach during the 2008 Cannes Film Festival on Wednesday.
The May 12 earthquake left at least 41,353 people dead, destroyed 5.4 million homes and damaged another 21.4 million.
China may take as many as 10 years to recover from the disaster, which left an estimated 32,666 people missing, Christian aid group World Vision said.
Ziyi Zhang has personally donated one million yuan ($140,000) for relief efforts.
Sports star and Houston Rockets center Yao Ming has given two million yuan ($214,000) and half a million yuan to the Red Cross Society of China.

*”good it happened there b/c it’s overpopulated”
If is a good thing than why don’t you kill yourself now coz earth is overpopulated now and you will not say if that happen to you. F**k you Jing.
*it doesn’t matter how much she make, at least she donated. have you donate any to help?
Thank you to who help in anyway to those people who needed it
Maybe this is the best time for Angelina and Brad to adopt a chinese child orphaned from this tragedy?
now everybody in China is donating, money, food, supplies, blood, even some street beggers give money, it’s overwhelming…
some of the comment here made me sick and angry. I’m a chinese. A lot of us have always thought of American people are kind and good-hearted. I can’t believe people can be so mean and cruel, in a country who alwasy claims yourself the best people in the world, promoting ‘humanity’, or ‘human rights’ all the time. Now I see you guys are so superficial, selfish and dark.
China will survive! And she will continue to grow. Unfortunately your ‘wishes’ won’t come true!~!
Please don’t preach us about superficial, selfish and dark. Americans are kind and good hearted, but Chineses (in China that is) have rarely helped anyone else but their own people. Rest assured, our tax dollars will come to the victims in aid and rescue experts too. And certainly China will survive (communism didn’t annihilate the country) and will grow with all fake medicines and harmful food preservatives China is making and selling to the world, and with buying organs from poor people in Vietnam for less than $50, mutilating them to near death.
.
how did you chinese never helped others? When katrina happened chinese at least donated 12 millions dollars! not to mention all other donations around the world ! don’t talk about things you don’t even know! all you know if yourself and pointing fingers at others!
to 2 wei
your words only proved my previous post was correct. i was hoping someone would come out and say there are good-hearted americans out there. but apparantly you definitely is not one of them. you words only proved how pathetic you are!
Americans are kind and good hearted, but Chineses (in China that is) have rarely helped anyone else but their own people.
============================
How can you say that? Shame on you !
Chinese government donated 104 tons of relief materials and 5million dollars to the people affected by katrina and China Red Cross donated 100K dollars!
Before you decide to attack Chinese, please at least Google to have more understanding of China!
its awful such a thing happened to china…especially with olympics approaching. but i think this made china more aware about people….they’ve been helping and everyone around the world is to. people should give this girl a break. she donated one million dollars herself…dont compare herself with anyone. at least she helped not like some other celebrities.
It’s a tragedy. The whole nation is so sad. So many people passed away within seconds. Yet, China will survive. I’m Chinese. I have such faith. I always think many westerners misunderstand China a lot. They are influenced by some westerner media. There are a number of foreign students in my college. It seems that they like China very much. Today, I saw a Japanese student wearing a T-shirt, which says “I love Bei Jing”!! Almost every Chinese is donating these days, no matter how much. The terrible earthquake is really horrible and heartbreaking. It is reported that all the orphans have already been adopted, by the way.
Yes China contributed to the aids for Katrina and other disasters but the amount when comparing to that of America when she donate to other countries’ disaster relief is small. Go search and compare the amount historically. America and her people have always been the largest aids contributors, most eager, most compassionate. The fact that media outlets in America has been reporting China’s tragedy non stop for days and telling Americans to donate money or efforts attests to our compassionate nature.
Your saying ‘Americans are superficial, selfish and dark’ after reading opinions of twenty some people is what irked me. You lumped all Americans together. And this is a blog visit by international bloggers. You are an example. If you can generalize in that fashion then I too can generalize in my fashion. Please don’t cry foul when you get back exactly what you put out. It’s too communist a tactic.
I admit I am less inclined to sympathize with China, the government and to some extent with the Chineses who are making billions producing and selling fake medicines, harmful food preservatives, unsafe equipments and weapons to terrorist countries. I do know that each country has good and bad people and am not disputing that this earthquake is a tragedy. I do feel for the victims, particular the youngsters who died in the school that collapsed. I don’t belittle the loss of precious young lives, but honestly, all things are relative. Myanmar is smaller a country and much poorer one too and has lost a great deal more than China. So was Indonesia and Thailand when tsunami hit them. China’s government officials and elites who have garnered billions in personal fortune in so short a period using the resources that are supposedly owned by these victims need to cough up the money and help these poor people first.
Every country on earth will survive as long as its people love it and occupy and cultivate it. So China will survive, with or without the help of us the “superficial, selfish and dark”. Why not take that pride with the dignity of silence?
Ziyishka impresses of the sincere man and consequently is the most valuable agent of influence of China.
The Americans the sympathetic people .

Regardless of American or Chinese everyone is equal, kind and good hearted in helping the less fortunate ones
I’m not even going to START on some of the hypocritical slanderous comments posted here, so let’s just focus on the clothes hey?
Very elegant in classic black. *Nod of approval*
this woman is a real *****. Im not touched AT ALL to see her cheap tear. Dont forget her job! she is a f**kin actress, who are good at acting and faking!!!! she didnt this only to promote herself, and I can swear to god. If she really cares, why doesnt she go to Sichuan where the earthquake happened and do more things practical like what Jackie Chen and Jet Li are doing, other than posing and faking crying in front of the camera??!!!
**** this woman. never know she is a nice one. she should be the one who died in the earthquake not those innocent poor school kids…
I have been the UK for four years. after our olympic torch was interrupted in London, I could not help arguing with my friend who told me that she supported the exile tibeten. after the quake happened in china, she asked me whether my parents were ok or not.
You and me are all normal people.our oppinion are unvoidablly formed by our haman nature and media or education given by others.
for the whole week I have been searching on the latest news and crying by those reports. in order to control population, one child policy has been issued in China for several decades. have had a western media given a objective comment on its contribution to the whole world? the only child has been lost this time, even the western journalists show somewhat thympathy, how about you? many tibeten people live in the area where the quake happened, has Dalai Lama told you or his hollywood stars denoting or do something to help?
our disaster has not ended. there has been more than a thousand afterquake accured since last Monday, and the thread of flood has becoming more and more serious because of the bad wheather. most of you have not been there before, you cannot know how beautiful it is. and I don’t expect how much concern you should give. for myself, I just hope you can give a hand for the live people whose lives are still in danger if you can or give a good wish. and also, I told myself I definitely retrun those love to others no matter where and when it will be needed because I have got a lesson this time.
as for ZIYI‘S BEHAVIOUR, it is her own right to choose how to help her homeland, you can criticise, but it does not matter, I think, because it is not important any more for most chinese.
in the end, I have to tell the western people that one of reasons which lead to many trouble for China is that we chinese have been followed your civilisation or culture for too long …
Please Miss Zhang.. Just stop using earthquake to make yourself look good. I wonder why no any other Chineses have been invited by her , when so many famous Chinese actors, actresses and directors were there with their new movies. It also said she didn’t go to another donating activity which was hold by an Chinese director who came from Sichuan.
People in Sichuan would appreciate donations but they are not tools for personal Show, Miss Zhang. I feel very sick about it. While there are lots of Chinese people, including actors and directors over there, opening their hearts and wallets to Wenchuan, this Miss Zhang was just begging money from Americans–even not Chinese-Americans, and she thinks this is going to contribute her career!
Zi never miss anytime, anywhere to promote herself and show off!
She won’t to loose this big fish, billionaire Warner big man!
Clever woman always know anytime to promote herself!
She has a billionaire boyfriend, don’t need to pretend cry face!
Her boyfriend can donate a big money!!
we need help
@The Narssist:
ha,you are funny.
