吐血，这年头什么鸟人都有——“使用翻盖手机者，无论从形象还是人品上看，均比较猥亵”

　　 手机在中国人日常生活中的重要性无与伦比，因此许多人对选择手机相当重视。也就是说，你是个什么样的人，决定了你会购买什么样的手机。大多人选手机第一考虑要素就是外观，因此每当你一踏进手机营业厅，营业员劈头问的第一句话总是：“你想要直板的还是翻盖的？”
　　
　　 ［晋陶渊明曾说过：不为五斗米折腰］
　　
　　 我曾经有意识地观察过各色人等，总体上发现一个现象：使用翻盖机型的人，形象大多都比较猥琐，矮小佝偻，男的獐头鼠目，女的尖嘴猴腮；从性格看，大多喜欢折腰事权贵，懦弱无能，易于屈服，因无能导致其不得不屈漆逢迎，以献媚来换取生存。而且，大家都知道翻盖手机与马桶盖极为相似，把马桶盖这种东西当爱好的，说其人品猥琐卑鄙完全不为过。
　　
　　 而使用直板机型的人，多数是身材高大，一身正气，坚毅刚强，走路总是双眼傲视前方，极富一种永不屈服、开拓进取的精神。
　　
　　 夹在这两种人之间的，还有一种，就是使用滑盖机型的。这种人比较滑头，是典型的墙头草，首鼠两端，模棱两可，毫无个性可言。正如他们所使用的滑盖手机，算直板呢，不是；要算翻盖呢，也不是。夹在这两种人之间的，还有一种，就是使用滑盖机型的。这种人比较滑头，是典型的墙头草，首鼠两端，模棱两可，毫无个性可言。正如他们所使用的滑盖手机，算直板呢，不是；要算翻盖呢，也不是。
　　
　　 最后还有一种，就是没手机的人，这个群体以小屁孩居多，性格暂未定型，在此不予置评。
　　
　　 ［直板和翻盖理念的分歧，直接映证了东西方文化的冲突］
　　
　　 目前中国大陆手机无非两大派系——西方派系和东方派系。
　　
　　 西方派系即西欧北美等品牌，特点就是以直板机身为主流，以适应白种人高大威猛的身材。设计内涵偏重于手机的存在本质：通话和性能稳定。因此，欧美直板机体现了西方人务实、精准、踏实的传统人文理念。
　　
　　 而东方派系自然就是以中日韩品牌为代表，以翻盖机型为主流，以适应黄种人矮小猥琐的身材。设计上喜欢拿声色影作文章，在铃声、像素、拍照功能上做得灿烂无比，实则金玉其外，败絮其中，而忽略了手机最基本的存在要义：通话功能。中日韩手机的通话质量及稳定性与欧美手机无法相提并论，这是多数人公认的。这些都直接反映了东方人自古喜欢狎妓、喝花酒、听下流小调、看春宫图等声色犬马的糜烂生活传统。而且翻盖机型也反映了东方儒家所一贯宣扬的屈张忍让、苟且偷生等传统人文理念。
　　
　　 因此，经过一番对比研究，最终得出结论是：使用翻盖机型者，无论从形象还是人品上看，都大大不如使用直板机型者。

We Deliver Care - A Snapshot on GC-CSR Programs

The Greater China Corporate Social Responsibility (GC-CSR) program was launched successfully earlier this year when NOL Group employees sponsored three counties of children in Yunnan for their elementary and secondary school.  Since then, the company has sponsored two other programs in Yunnan and Guizhou.

The GC-CSR program got off to a superb start when its Committee targeted to sponsor schoolchildren from one county in Yunnan, but ended up sponsoring three counties instead.  An enthusiastic response was received when the call for sponsorship was made.  As a result, all needy students from three counties, totalling 434 school-going children, received sponsorship from NOL employees.

The three counties were Jinghong, Puer and Yunlong, and are located in Yunnan, in south-west China.  Each elementary and secondary student in the province needs 200rmb and 400rmb respectively to cover for a year of tuition and books.  While most of the sponsorship were received from GC employees, some of our fellow colleagues from Oakland, Uxbridge, Dubai and Singapore also answered to the call.

Aligning its efforts with the Group CSR theme, GC-CSR furthered its steps by sponsoring the eighth group of Shanghai volunteers to Yunnan. NOL has been the first and sole Foreign Invested Enterprise (FIE) to sponsor this flagship program of Shanghai Youth Volunteers Association since 2004. The seventh team earned a very positive feedback from the Yunnan Province for their field medical and teaching services, which were rendered to communities scattered in remote mountain areas. On Aug 2, the eighth group of 21 young volunteers were sent off from Shanghai Hongqiao Airport in a warm and brief ceremony attended by their families, colleagues and a number of city officials. Koay Peng Yen, who were also present, expressed his view on volunteerism and corporate citizenship, and wished the team a journey of fulfillment.

In the same month, another GC-CSR program reached a fulfilled end in Guizhou, South China. Starting June 30, four main South China offices including Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Xiamen and Fuzhou initiated a staff donation of utility items to Guizhou. Eight co-ordinators worked on voluntary base to facilitate the donation process. Efforts of a full month and the generosity of South China staff generated 42 cartons of 2,958 pieces of donation items. They were neatly packed and delivered to Guizhou Donation Center on August 12. Local media made full coverage on the hand-over ceremony. South China staff promised to render more help to this needy region in the near future.

The GC-CSR Committee has been greatly motivated and encouraged to see colleagues from so many regions extending their hands out of social charity cause.

BRAVO!!!…
