导读:2020年5月26日,港澳知名爱国企业家何鸿燊逝世,走完了他98年的人生旅程。贯穿何鸿燊一生的,除了满满的传奇色彩,还有“勤力”以及“爱国”这两个他最爱讲的词。

Stanley Ho Hung-sun was known for his generosity and patriotic spirit. VCG

Tributes have poured in from across China mourning the passing of Stanley Ho Hung-sun.
全国各地都在向何鸿燊逝世致哀。

The entrepreneur, well-known for the wealth generated by his casinos, passed away on May 26. But Ho’s contribution to wider society and his ambitious ideas went far beyond the gambling table. He was also well-respected for his achievements in many areas, including being one of the first entrepreneurs to invest in the Chinese mainland when the nation started reform and opening-up in the 1970s.
这位以开设赌场发家致富的著名企业家于5月26日逝世。但何鸿燊对社会的贡献及其雄心壮志早就超越了赌桌。他在众多领域都有所成就,受人尊重,比如,他是上世纪70年代最早响应国家改革开放、前来内地投资的企业家之一。

He was also known for his generosity to charities and donating money to build schools.
他还以热心慈善、捐款建校著称。

“He taught us … to give back to society, to appreciate our heritage and, most of all, to be patriotic to our country,” read the statement on behalf of Ho’s family.
“他教导我们……取诸社会,用诸社会;他亦时刻耳提面命我们珍惜我们的文化传统,爱我们的国家,”何氏家族的声明中如此写道。

In November 2019, Ho donated a red bronze horse head statue – a long-lost national cultural relic that he paid over 63 million yuan for at an auction –to the National Cultural Heritage Administration to mark the 20th anniversary of Macao’s return to China.
2019年11月,为纪念澳门回归二十周年,何鸿燊向国家文物局捐赠了一尊圆明园马首铜像,此前,何鸿燊在一场拍卖会上以6300万人民币购入这件流失多年的国家文物。

In 2007, to mark the 10th anniversary of Hong Kong’s return to the motherland, Ho donated five priceless works of art to the National Museum.
2007年,为纪念香港回归十周年,何鸿燊向国家博物馆捐赠了5件珍贵艺术品。

Speaking at the donation ceremony, Ho said that he had witnessed the successful implementation of the “one country, two systems” in both the Hong Kong and Macao SARs, and as a Chinese citizen, he looked forward to the peaceful reunification of his country.
他在捐赠仪式上表示,自己亲眼目睹了“一国两制”在港澳的成功实践。作为中国人,他期盼祖国尽快实现和平统一。

Macao Chief Executive Ho Iatseng also sent a letter of condolence to Ho’s family expressing his deepest regrets and commending Ho’s lifelong dedication to public welfare and his significant contribution to Macao’s prosperity and stability.
澳门特别行政区行政长官贺一诚也致唁函慰问何鸿燊亲属,谨表深切哀悼,他赞扬何鸿燊一生乐善好施,关心社会公益事业,为澳门繁荣稳定做出了重要贡献。

Ho held many titles in his lifetime, including member of the Standing Committee of the 9th, 10th and 11th National Committees of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference. But he once said his favorite title is “patriotic entrepreneur”.
何鸿燊一生中拥有众多头衔荣誉,曾任第九届至第十一届全国政协常委。但他曾说,自己最喜欢的荣誉是“爱国企业家”。
