Yesterday, Alibaba Group delivered the first social responsibility report of China's Internet industry, discussing hot topics such as corporate social responsibility and corporate citizenship.

In this social responsibility report, Jack Ma, the chairman of the board of directors of Alibaba Group, who has been known for his unconventional strategies in Chinese e-commerce, changed the usual practice of wealthy philanthropists donating large sums of money when talking about fulfilling social responsibilities. He proposed the "1 yuan donation" theory. "The key to being热心公益is to have love, the amount of money is not important." Another thing that Jack Ma "cares about the most" is to build a social credit system.

Jack Ma stated that the development of e-commerce so far, the efforts of a single company are no longer enough to push e-commerce to a new level. Alibaba Group will make ecologicalization as the core strategy of the enterprise, coordinate the widest range of industrial and social forces, jointly build and improve the infrastructure of e-commerce, and jointly cultivate an open, collaborative, and prosperous e-commerce ecosystem.

According to the introduction, Alibaba Group is tapping its potential and serving public welfare activities in the most "direct" way. It is understood that Taobao.com has launched a charity project called "Magic Bean Baby" in conjunction with the Chinese Red Cross Society, and Alipay has cooperated with many domestic and foreign charity organizations to help them successfully achieve online donations for free, providing a convenient channel for charity organizations.

Gao Xinmin, the executive deputy chairman of the China Internet Association, pointed out that the Internet has become one of the most important economies, and more and more Internet companies and netizens need to participate in the practice of serving society and assuming social responsibilities.
