A Chinese famous ideologist in ancient said "A full belly counsels well". It is simple to understand: when we do not have enough food and drink which are some basal material requisites, there is no meaning to talk about price and shame. For each person, no one wish to have a life like that because they will lacking in basal conditions to develop in the future. However, after they have basal material requisites, does it mean that they are shame or price? While there are some examples of news which someone having rich resources was plunged into an unprecedented crisis. Consider the news "Guo Meimei Red Cross Controversy Pissing Off Chinese Netizens" by China Daily. The title is percussive, who is Guo Meimei? What is the relationship between her and Red Cross Controversy? A 20-year-old woman named Guo Meimei, who used Sina Weibo (the Chinese version of Twitter) to clam herself is the general manager of a company called Red Cross Commerce. She putted too many photos on Weibo to show off her Maserati and Lamborghini cars, expensive handbags and palatial villa. After that netizens feel angry whether Guo used their donated money to meet herself's lifestyle. From the point of material life, she is pretty rich because she never worries about her life which live high and buy luxurious goods. But as a citizen, she has lost the basal civic standards such as her personal behaviors has tarnished Red Cross Commerce's authority which means that people will be unlikely to want to donate to the organization. So getting basal material requisites is just one factor to measure price and shame for woman. In deed, material goods can meet people's own orders. But more importantly, people should keep their baselines in the public morality. And public would decide personal price and shame. Material goods can bring people colorful live, but when people do not know how to use them seemly. They will set off the explosion of people's reputations.
