The Annual Meeting

年度股东大会

Berkshire’s 2019 annual meeting will take place on Saturday, May 4th. If you are thinking about attending – and Charlie and I hope you come – check out the details on pages A-2 – A-3. They describe the same schedule we’ve followed for some years.

伯克希尔2019年年度股东大会将于5月4日周六举行。如果你考虑参加——查理和我期待你们的到来——请查阅A-2至A-3页的详情。日程安排与我们多年来惯例相同。

If you can’t join us in Omaha, attend via Yahoo’s webcast. Andy Serwer and his Yahoo associates do an outstanding job, both in covering the entire meeting and interviewing many Berkshire managers, celebrities, financial experts and shareholders from the U.S. and abroad. The world’s knowledge of what goes on in Omaha the first Saturday of every May has grown dramatically since Yahoo came on board. Its coverage begins at 8:45 a.m. CDT and provides Mandarin translation.

如果你无法亲临奥马哈，可以通过雅虎 (Yahoo) 的网络直播参与。安迪·瑟沃 (Andy Serwer) 和他的雅虎团队表现出色，他们不仅全程报道整个大会，还会采访众多伯克希尔经理人、名人、金融专家以及来自美国和海外的股东。自从雅虎加入以来，全世界对每年五月第一个周六在奥马哈所发生的事情的了解程度大大提高。直播于中部时间上午8:45开始，并提供中文翻译。

For 54 years, Charlie and I have loved our jobs. Daily, we do what we find interesting, working with people we like and trust. And now our new management structure has made our lives even more enjoyable.

54年来，查理和我一直热爱我们的工作。每一天，我们都在做自己觉得有趣的事，与我们喜欢和信任的人一起共事。而现在，我们新的管理架构让我们的生活更加愉快了。

With the whole ensemble – that is, with Ajit and Greg running operations, a great collection of businesses, a Niagara of cash-generation, a cadre of talented managers and a rock-solid culture – your company is in good shape for whatever the future brings.

整个团队齐心协力——阿吉特和格雷格管理运营，旗下一大批优秀的企业，现金如尼亚加拉瀑布般涌入，一群才华横溢的经理人，以及坚如磐石的企业文化——无论未来如何，你们的公司都准备好了。
