Chapter 2797 The Rich Get Richer

This year's two rich list lists, in fact, except for Xiao Qi's being the world's richest man, which is no doubt, they are still very interesting.

Needless to say, Buffett, who is second, is either the first or the second all the year round, and Bill Gates often sits in the top spot.

His assets are 83 billion U.S. dollars. Although it is only a little more than one-tenth of Xiao Qi's, it is still more than 70% higher than his lowest point two years ago.

Look at why Buffett makes so much money, the reason is actually very simple.

The first one, Buffett seized a big gold mine, that is, 3% shares of DreamStars, which was collected by his old man.

The current valuation of DreamStars is 360 billion U.S. dollars, that is to say, the DreamStars shares he currently holds are almost 10.8 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of more than 16% from when he bought it.

Seems a little off, doesn't it?

But at the end of last year, Qatar's National Investment Agency wanted to buy his 3% stake for 13 billion US dollars, but they did not agree, and they planned to hold it in their hands for long-term value preservation and appreciation, plus a large amount of dividends every year.

Second, Buffett followed Xiao Qi in making several investments last year.

For example, he owns an 8% stake in Meitu and a 5% stake in Fairy Guardian. Now the stock market is doing well, and the value-added of this part is also more than 20%.

And didn't Xiao Qi buy shares in Facebook, Twitter, Apple, Oracle, Bloomberg, and Amazon?

Buffett saw it, and he also bought a lot of shares. Over the past year, several major companies have quickly stepped out of the trough. Either the stock price has risen sharply, or the valuation has increased a lot. The book value increased by more than 38 billion U.S. dollars, and the dividends were as high as 1.9 billion U.S. dollars, which made the people who bought his funds smile.

As a result, Buffett's net worth has continued to rise, reaching a historic breakthrough of 83 billion US dollars.

The third place is still Bill Gates children's shoes. His net worth is 72.5 billion US dollars.

On the one hand, Microsoft is still the undisputed overlord in computer software. By integrating Yahoo's search engine and resources, their business capabilities have reached a new height, and they are very popular in the market.

on the other hand. Although the smart phones developed by Microsoft and HTC last year were not in the first camp, they were also very popular. The industry is very optimistic about the development of Microsoft's Winphone system in smart systems, if that is the case. They may be able to continue their glory in software systems.

Therefore, Microsoft's stock has been rising sharply since last year, with a cumulative rise of more than 27%. As a result, the assets of Bill Gates' children's shoes have also increased significantly, reaching 72.5 billion US dollars.

The fourth place is Carlos, a Mexican communications giant. His American communications company covers more than 20% of the entire South American region, so his assets are 68 billion US dollars.

This Carlos, who was the only person in his previous life who could break the wheel of Bill Gates and Buffett, had the highest assets. He also has more than 80 billion US dollars!

The seventh place is Li Chaoren, the pride of the Chinese.

In addition to the real estate and port business in Hong Kong, he mainly relies on the growth of the communication 3G business in Europe, and his assets exceed 50 billion US dollars.

Speaking of which, Li Chaoren's assets have almost increased by 60% in two years, and the biggest lucky star is still Xiao Qi.

If Xiao Qi hadn't promoted the rapid development of smart electronics, how could the 3G network have developed so well?

At this time in the previous life, Li Chaoren was still gritting his teeth to make up for the loss of hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars every month!

The level of wealth and education in Western Europe is comparable to that of the United States, and they also have a population of more than 500 million, so such a large market. Once it is stimulated by smart electronics, the profit is absolutely unlimited.

Li Chaoren spent so much thought on 3G photography, and finally, after five years, he ushered in the dawn of such a victory.

Some financial commentators even said. If this momentum continues, Li Chaoren's Hutchison Whampoa will surely become one of the top five telecommunications operators in Europe, and there is no problem with exceeding US$30 billion in annual revenue!

At that time, Li Chaoren might be able to rush to the top three for a stroll!

Compared with last year, the standard of the world's top ten richest people. It has been raised from 28 billion US dollars to 35 billion US dollars at once. In this era of financial crisis, such a contrarian growth is quite memorable.

In fact, many people have never thought that the more financial crisis and economic disaster, the easier it is for the super rich to make money.

Seeking wealth and wealth is the truth.

Don't talk about others, let's just talk about Xiao Qi. In the subprime mortgage crisis, oil crash, gold hype, etc., he has earned tens of billions of dollars.

Of course, most of the people are watching the fun, and they can only admire and worship the rich. When their wealth reaches a level that ordinary people can't even imagine, they usually don't have any jealousy or hatred.

In fact, many people know about this list, so it is not accurate at all.

Except for Xiao Qi, the world's richest man, who is justifiable and no one can snatch it away, the second place, Mr. Buffett, is not so secure.

Because the veteran families in Europe and the United States, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar and other oil tycoons basically do not show their own private property. They usually use family or state or royal funds to show their power.

For example, the Qatar Royal Family Fund has more than 300 billion US dollars, which is not all of their investment funds.

The funds managed by the second prince of Saudi Arabia are as high as more than 90 billion U.S. dollars, and the assets controlled by their royal family are as high as more than 700 billion U.S. dollars.

If calculated in this way, several kings and chiefs have already won the top few, and the rich background of the Morgan, Rockefeller and other families is deeply rooted in their own country, which you usually can't see at all.

Even if these mysterious rich people are not ranked, there are still several wives of Xiao Qi, whose assets should actually be ranked in the top ten of the world's richest people.

For example, Tang Mingxiang of Chosegirl still owns 40% of Facebook shares, and her assets are at least 60 billion US dollars. According to this amount, she is at least the sixth place.

There is also micro. Letter and WeChat. Huangfu Cai of Bo Company, Weibo. Bo company more than 700 million users, micro. Bo company's 1.2 billion users have brought Huangfu Cai a wealth worth at least 46 billion, and this number is the eighth place.

Why didn't they make it to the top ten, but they were just in the 30s and 40s without any pain?

The reason is very simple, it must be that Xiao Qi used public relations money again to hide their net worth.

This is of course beneficial to the two of them, because famous women have a lot of troubles, and there will be a lot of kidnapping and extortion. In order to avoid these troubles, of course, the lower the profile, the better.

Compared with Forbes, which focuses more on Europe and the United States, the Fu Run Ranking, known as the Killing Pig List, is rooted in Asia and likes to rank the richest people in Huaguo the most.

In mainland China, the Fu Run ranking is now more handy.

Because Xiao Qi is more powerful in the Mainland, it is very easy for Fu Run Ranking to help hide the assets of his wives.

Those questions about Fu Run's ranking will not pass through a specific network. Review, let alone publish it in public.

In Hong Kong, the Fu Run Ranking has to be more formal. After all, if there is no professionalism anywhere, their existence is meaningless.

There is no doubt that Li Chaoren is naturally the richest man in Hong Kong.

And the most eye-catching one is Li Chaoren's second son, Li Xiaochao.

Li Xiaochao, who was ranked eighth last year, unexpectedly moved up three places again this year, and with a net worth of 17 billion US dollars, he reached the fifth place!

This is incredible!

You know, last year, Li Xiaochao was only worth 10.6 billion US dollars!

But if you take a closer look, Li Xiaochao's assets have increased, two-thirds of which are due to the foundry business of Xiannv Company, and the remaining one-third is due to his 6% stake in Facebook.

Facebook's valuation surged by more than 80% last year, so Li Xiaochao's assets have naturally increased significantly.

For this reason, Li Xiaochao also specially called Xiao Qi to thank him.

Li Chaoren gave Li Xiaochao the 6% stake in Facebook, but if Xiao Qi hadn't advised Li Xiaochao, Li Xiaochao would never have thought of asking for such a share.

Li Chaoren also knew the stock number of Facebook at the beginning, but he didn't know that Facebook was so good. Otherwise, he must have kept this excellent asset in the family fund by himself and would not have allocated it so early.

Li Xiaochao was naturally happy to get a big bargain from the old man.

Compared with Li Xiaochao, Yan Chenglong also has a net worth of 12.1 billion US dollars, which has risen two places to seventh place, which is considered very powerful.

Fairy Company not only created two super rich people in Hong Kong, Taiwan's richest man Guo Taiming also increased his assets a lot due to the foundry business. With a net worth of 19.2 billion US dollars, he once again ranked first in Taiwan without dispute.

As for other companies in mainland China and Taiwan that have trade relations with Xiannv Company, they have naturally made a lot of money. The main shareholders of the company 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. (~^~)
