Chinese CEO, Donates $3 Million Bonus To 10,000 Employees

Chances are about 10,000 workers at Lenovo are smiling a little more today, after the tech company's CEO, Yang Yuanqing, took $3 million of his bonus and distributed among his staff.

"Among the employees to receive a piece of the pie were receptionists, production line workers, and assistants," DailyTech reported, adding that each worker received a bonus totaling about $314.

That figure might not seem like too big a deal to workers in the United States, but in China, it's more than a month's salary for some. According to PC World, the minimum wage in China's Shenzhen province is only about $253 a month.
