This year's two richest rankings, apart from Xiao Qi's being the world's richest man, are actually quite interesting. pbtt
Needless to say, the second-placed Buffett is always either first or second. He and Bill Gates often share the top spot.
His assets are 300 million US dollars. Although it is only a little more than one-tenth of Xiao Qi's, it is still an increase from his lowest point two years ago. How could the Internet develop so well?
At this time in his previous life, Li Chaoren was still grinding his teeth to make up for losses of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars every month!
The wealth and education level of Western Europe are comparable to those of the United States, and they also have a population of more than 500 million. Therefore, once such a large market is stimulated by smart electronics, the profits will definitely be unlimited.
Li Chaoren spent so much effort on 3G photography, and finally, five years later, he ushered in the dawn of such success.
Some financial commentators even said that if this momentum continues, Li Chaoren's Hutchison Whampoa Company will definitely become one of the top five communications operators in Europe, with annual revenue exceeding US$300 million. There is no problem!
At that time, Li Chaoren might even be able to rush to the top three and take a stroll!
Compared with last year, the standard for the world's top ten richest people has been raised from 200 million U.S. dollars to 3.5 billion U.S. dollars. In this era of financial crisis, such growth against the trend is quite memorable.
In fact, many people have never thought that in times of financial crisis and economic disaster, it becomes easier for the super rich to make money.
This is the principle behind seeking wealth through risk.
Let’s not talk about others, let’s just talk about Xiao Qi. He made tens of billions of dollars from the subprime mortgage crisis, the oil crash, gold speculation, etc. These are real huge amounts of wealth that he can safely pocket!
Of course, most people watch the excitement and can only admire and worship the rich. When their wealth reaches a level that ordinary people can't even imagine, there is usually no jealousy or hatred.
In fact, many people know that this list is not accurate at all.
Except for Xiao Qi, the world's richest man, who is legitimate and no one can snatch it away, the second-placed Mr. Buffett is not so sure.
Because the established families in Europe and the United States, the oil tycoons of the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, etc. basically do not show their personal wealth. They usually use family or national or royal funds to show their power.
For example, the Qatar Royal Family Fund has more than 300 million US dollars, which is not all their investment funds.
The funds managed by the second prince of Saudi Arabia amount to more than 900 million U.S. dollars, and the assets controlled by their royal family are even more than audited by the Internet, let alone announced in public.
In Hong Kong, the Fu Run rankings must be more formal. After all, if there is no professionalism anywhere, their existence will be meaningless.
There is no doubt that Li Chaoren is naturally the richest man in Hong Kong.
Then the most eye-catching person is Li Chaoren’s second son, Li Xiaochao.
Li Xiaochao, who ranked eighth last year, moved up three places again this year, reaching fifth place with a net worth of US$1.7 billion!
This is incredible!
You know, last year, Li Xiaochao only had a net worth of US$1.6 billion!
But if you take a closer look, you will find that two-thirds of Li Xiaochao's increase in assets is due to Fairy Company's OEM business, and the remaining one-third is due to the 6% stake he owns in Faebo OK.
The valuation of faebook surged by more than % last year, so Li Xiaochao’s assets naturally increased significantly.
For this reason, Li Xiaochao even called Xiao Qi to express his thanks.
The 6% stake in faebook was given to Li Xiaochao by Li Chaoren, but if Xiao Qi had not given Li Xiaochao advice, Li Xiaochao would never have thought of acquiring such a share.
Li Chaoren also knew the stock number of faebook at the beginning, but he did not know that faebook was so good. Otherwise, he would definitely have kept this excellent asset in the family fund and would not have distributed it so early.
Being able to get a big bargain from the old man, Li Xiaoshan was beaming with joy.
Compared with Li Xiaochao, Yan Chenglong also rose two places to seventh place with a net worth of US$12.1 billion, which is considered very powerful.
Fairy Company has not only created two Hong Kong super-rich people, Taiwan's richest man, Guo Taiming, has also increased his assets a lot due to the OEM business. His net worth of 19.2 billion US dollars has helped him once again rank undisputedly No. 1 in Taiwan.
As for other companies in Mainland China and Taiwan that have trade relations with Fairy Company, they have naturally made a lot of money. The company's major shareholders have increased their net worth by hundreds of millions or even billions of yuan. It can be said that everyone is happy.
Because of their success, Fu Run Ranking even came up with a term called "Fairy Wealth Effect", which was a slap in the face of Xiao Qi. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please visit http:/
