嗨,Buffett 先生,还有 Munger 先生。

Hi, Mr. Buffett and Munger.

特别高兴能来到这里。

Very excited to be here.

我叫 Liu Yu,也来自中国上海。

My name is Liu Yu, also from Shanghai, China.

因为我现在在一家给中国高净值人群提供财富管理服务的公司工作,这家公司叫 Noah,就是 Noah's Ark 的那个 Noah,在 NYSE 上市。

Because now I'm in a company providing wealth management to the high-net-worth individuals in China, the company name is Noah, from Noah's Ark, listed at NYSE.

你们二位是我的偶像。

You two are my idols.

你们保持这么年轻、这么有活力、反应这么快的秘诀是什么?

What's your secret of keeping so young, so energetic, and so quick?

请别说是因为 Coca-Cola。

Please don't say because of Coca-Cola.

还有人说,老一辈搞不懂 internet,但我不相信这个。

And someone says that old papa could not understand the internet, but I don't believe that.

你们怎么看?

What's your opinion?

你们以后会不会更多关注 internet?

Will you pay more attention to the internet?

我能不能邀请两位先生都来回答一下我的问题?

Could I invite both gentlemen to answer my question?

非常感谢。

Thank you very much.

Charlie,我刚才没全听明白。

Charlie, I didn't get all that.

所以你——

So you—
M2
M20:58

嗯,他问的是,我们会不会用 internet。

Well, he asked, are we going to be using the internet?

跟我比起来,Warren 算是个重度 internet 用户,而且——

Warren is a big internet user compared to me, and—

M31:09

但我很喜欢它。

But I love it.
M2
M21:11

他会在上面打 bridge。

He plays bridge on it.
M3
M31:14

对,我还用很多别的——我会用搜索。

Yeah, I use a lot of other— I use search.

我,我,这个,它,它,它给我的生活带来了巨大的变化。

I, I, it, it's, it's been a huge change in my life.

而且一年也就花我一百美元左右。

And it cost me $100 a year or something like that.

我的意思是,要是我必须放弃飞机,或者必须放弃 internet——飞机一年要花我一百五十万美元,internet 一年花我一百美元——你知道,我哪个都不想放弃,但我会放弃飞机。

I mean, if I had to give up the plane or I had to give up the internet—the plane cost me $1.5 million a year, the internet cost me $100 a year—you know, I wouldn't want to give up either one of them, but I'd give up the plane.
M2
M21:35

对,挺有意思。

Yeah, interesting.
M3
M31:43

不过 Charlie 是两个都要放弃。

But Charlie's giving up both.
M2
M21:46

我们以后会不会做得更多?

Are we going to be doing more?

我觉得每个人以后都会在 internet 上做更多事情。

And I think everybody's going to be doing more things on the internet.

它的重要性越来越强了,所以不管喜不喜欢,我们都会被拖进现代现实里。

It is growing in importance, and so, like it or not, we're dragged into modern reality.
M3
M32:01

听起来他好像不喜欢,是吧?

Doesn't sound like he likes it, does it?
M2
M22:02

对,我不喜欢。

No, I don't like it.

我不喜欢一心多用。

I don't like multitasking.

我看那些人同时做三件事,我就想,天哪,这种思考方式可真糟糕。

I see these people doing 3 things at once, and I think, God, what a terrible way that is to think.

我这个人太笨了,所以一件事我得很认真地想很久,而靠一心多用走向辉煌这种念头,我从来都没想过。

I am so stupid that I have to think hard about a thing for a long time, and the idea of multitasking my way to glory has never occurred to me.

不过不管怎么说,internet 已经来了,而且会变得越来越重要,大家不管喜欢不喜欢,都会更多地去想它,也会更多地去用它。

But at any rate, the internet is here, and it's going to be more and more important, and everybody's going to think more about it and do more about it, like it or not.

当然,年轻人比我们更容易接受、也更爱用这个。

And of course, the younger people are way more prone to use it than we are.

不过 Berkshire,你们现在有多少台 Bloomberg 终端了?

But Berkshire, you have what, how many Bloombergs now?
M3
M32:47

在办公室里吗?

In the office?
M2
M22:48

对。

Yeah.
M3
M32:49

大概有两三台。

You have 2 or 3.

Mark?

Mark?

我也不知道,他们不跟我说这些。

I don't know, they don't tell me about them.

我一进去,他们还会把那些东西藏起来。

They sort of hide them when I come in.
M2
M22:56

总之,我们也算是进入现代世界了。

Anyway, we're into the modern world.
M3
M33:00

我们有——Mark Hamburg 跟我说我们有三台,不过等我回办公室以后,我们会重新评估一下这个情况。

We have—Mark Hamburg tells me we have 3, but we'll reevaluate that situation when I get back to the office.

什么?

What's that?

有一台不是我们付的钱。

We're not paying for one.

哦,有一台不是我们付的钱。

Oh, we're not paying for one.

这个我喜欢。

I like that.

看看我们现在能不能只付两台的钱。

Let's see if we can now pay for 2.

再说到 internet,它已经改变了我们很多业务。

Now, the internet, and it's changed many of our businesses.

我是说,它把 GEICO 的业务改变得非常非常明显。

I mean, it's changed GEICO's business very, very dramatically.

而且它对所有业务都会有影响,只是程度不同而已。

And it affects them all to one degree or another.

这让我很惊讶。

It's amazing to me.

我是说,人们总会对 America 感到悲观。

I mean, people get pessimistic about America.

你想想,过去二十年,或者二十五年——嗯,就说 internet 这二十年,它把你的生活改变得多么彻底。

Just think in the last 20 or 25 years, or well, just 20 years on the internet, how dramatically it's changed your life.

而且这还没结束呢。

It's not over yet.

以后还会发生各种各样的事情,让生活变得更好。

There's all kinds of things that are going to happen to make life better.

Charlie 可能不觉得 internet 让生活变好了,但要是让我比较一下:下雪天想把另外三个人凑到我家来打 bridge,和直接啪地一下打开这个东西,让我在 San Francisco 的搭档,还有另外两个朋友,十秒二十秒内就都在线了,那我觉得这个世界确实进步了。

And Charlie may not think the internet makes life better, but when I compare trying to round up 3 other guys on a snowy day to come over to my house to play bridge versus snapping the thing on and having my partner in San Francisco there and 2 other friends and so on in 10 or 20 seconds, I think the world has improved.
