傳奇投資者查理·芒格的逝世受到了投資界和企業界所有人的哀悼，許多人回憶起他的投資才智和投資智慧之言。
What Happened: China's BYD Co Ltd. (OTC:BYDDY) (OTC:BYDDF), which competes with Tesla in the domestic market, on Wednesday paid tribute to Munger.
發生了什麼：在國內市場上與特斯拉競爭的中國比亞迪有限公司（場外交易代碼：BYDDY）（場外交易代碼：BYDDF）週三向芒格致敬。

Why It's Important: Munger, who served as Vice Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, was billionaire investor Warren Buffett's trusted lieutenant. Munger ties with BYD go back to 2008 when he convinced Buffett to invest in the automaker.
爲什麼重要：曾擔任伯克希爾·哈撒韋公司副董事長的芒格是億萬富翁投資者沃倫·巴菲特值得信賴的副手。芒格與比亞迪的關係可以追溯到2008年，當時他說服巴菲特投資這家汽車製造商。
Buffett's BYD bet deviated from Berkshire's traditional focus, but it has paid off. Munger was to recall earlier this year, "I have never helped do anything at Berkshire that was as good as BYD."
巴菲特的比亞迪賭注偏離了伯克希爾的傳統重點，但已經取得了回報。芒格回憶說，今年早些時候，“我從來沒有在伯克希爾做過任何像比亞迪一樣出色的事。”
Fortune reported that Berkshire purchased 225 million shares in BYD in 2008 for $230 million. The stake's value has multiplied manifold since then. BYD, which started as an ICE manufacturer, gradually transitioned to a maker of new-energy vehicles – an umbrella term used in China to refer to both battery EVs and plug-in hybrids.
《財富》雜誌報道說，伯克希爾在2008年以2.3億美元的價格購買了比亞迪的2.25億股股票。從那時起，賭注的價值成倍增長。比亞迪最初是一家內燃機制造商，後來逐漸過渡到新能源汽車製造商——這是一個在中國使用的總稱，指純電動汽車和插電式混合動力汽車。
BYD's ADR's trading over the counter in the U.S. settled Tuesday's session down 1.88% at $56.51, according to Benzinga Pro data.
Benzinga Pro的數據顯示，比亞迪在美國的ADR場外交易於週二收盤時下跌1.88％，至56.51美元。
