Chapter 221 People are afraid of being famous

Hurun's interview on this trip came with a mixture of expectations and trepidation.

In 1999, when Hurun produced the first "Mainland China's 100 Rich List", it was unable to meet a single rich man on the list. He relied on collecting various financial newspapers and magazines in mainland China, as well as various financial news, and

It took half a year to publish the first "Mainland China's 100 Richest List" regarding listed company statements and other information.

The next year, 2000, after the media reprinted Forbes' "Mainland China's 100 Rich List", Hurun had become famous in mainland China. The second time it produced "Mainland China's 100 Rich List", it was able to meet many rich people on the list.

.

But this year, with the launch of the Chinese version of Forbes, its own "Mainland China's Richest List" suddenly appeared in front of 1.3 billion Chinese people from the media and the rich, everything has changed.

When he met with these rich people before, all the people he met could talk freely, and many even provided him with some confidential financial statements of the company, which helped him a lot. But since Forbes launched the Chinese version, "Mainland China's 100 Richest People"

"List" suddenly appeared in front of 1.3 billion Chinese people, making these rich people unable to adapt for a while.

People are afraid of being famous, and pigs are afraid of being strong. Many rich people on the list have called Hurun. His "Mainland China's 100 Rich List" has brought them big troubles. Either they come to ask for donations or sponsorships, or they question the source of their wealth, and even

Many rich people also revealed that they hope to have Hurun remove their names from the "Mainland China's 100 Rich List".

In this regard, Hurun is very helpless. However, it still compiles the "Mainland China's 100 Rich List" based on its own logic. But now when meeting these rich people, it is difficult to obtain the most accurate information as before, as if it was back to 1999.

Years are calculated based on information such as magazines and annual reports published by companies. Fortunately, now that we have entered the Internet age and the era of information explosion, it is much easier to query a lot of information.

When meeting with Lin Feng this time, Hurun hoped that this recent man of the hour in mainland China could give him some real data. Young people who succeed in their ambitions should always be young and frivolous.

"Lin Feng, let me first state that I am not a reporter, and the content of our conversation will never be leaked." Hurun first emphasized his position.

Lin Feng nodded.

"Okay, let me ask the first question, Lin Feng, are you afraid of being on the list? Unlike other Western countries, many wealthy people in mainland China are not willing to be on the list now." Hurun asked.

Lin Feng frowned slightly after hearing this. There are many advantages and disadvantages of being on the list, and it is difficult to explain clearly. However, many people in China jokingly refer to the "Mainland China's 100 Rich List" as the "Pig Killing List". From one aspect, they can

It proves the disadvantages of being on the list. Once on the list, the influence will instantly spread from the local area to the whole country. Especially the inexplicable source of wealth will arouse the suspicion of many people.

"Being on the list is an honor, an affirmation, but also a responsibility and pressure." Lin Feng said quietly.

"Haha, Director Lin, I have investigated you carefully. It took you about 21 months to go from an ordinary boy who dropped out of school to a super rich man with a net worth of billions. What is the secret of your success?" Hu

Run asked curiously. This was also the reason why he had never been able to figure out Lin Feng.

"The secret of success?" Lin Feng thought for a moment and thought in his mind: If you were reborn, you might be able to be so successful.

But no one would believe me if I told you about rebirth.

"If I had to say the secret of my success, I can only use one idiom to describe it - whimsical." Lin Feng said half seriously, half jokingly.

"Whimsical?" Hu Run was stunned, pondering these four words.

"That's right. I'm not afraid that I can't do it, I'm just afraid that I can't think of it." Lin Feng affirmed.

"Everyone has a dream. Some people's dreams are elegant, filled with pastoral tranquility and serenity; some people's dreams are shy, about a date with a pretty girl in pink; some people's dreams are passionate, about the great glory of entrepreneurship. Willing the destiny

Always hold it in your own hands, seize an unrepentant goal and take action immediately. Use your own wisdom and unremitting efforts to launch a thunderous challenge to destiny! Never give up and never retreat!" Lin Feng's passionate tone and

The demeanor made Hurun obsessed with him.

"What a sentence, 'Challenge your destiny like lightning! Never give up, never retreat!'. Then what was your initial goal?" Hurun asked curiously after sighing in admiration.

"My initial goal was just to hope that my parents would live a good life, and then I could have a penthouse garden apartment of my own, and have a girl who loves me, and live my life together." Lin Feng said with a hint of amusement.

Hurun smiled.

"So Lin Feng, your original goal has been achieved long ago, what about your current goal?" Hurun asked expectantly.

"What is your current goal?" Lin Feng tapped his forehead with his finger. He really hadn't thought about this question carefully. When he came to Shanghai from Chu City, many things seemed to fall into place and happen naturally. He just followed the trend.

And all the way to now. What is the future goal? The richest man in China, or the richest man in the world? Lin Feng has really not thought about it seriously.

"I don't know, I have never thought about this issue seriously. However, my goal at this stage is to build 'Second World' into the best game company in the world, and 'Qidian Fast Food Restaurant' can go out of China and become a world-famous fast food

Shop." After Lin Feng hesitated for a moment, he finally said what he wanted most in his heart.

Hu Run nodded, this answer was already very satisfactory to him.

"Director Lin, do you want to know where you rank on the "Mainland China's Rich List" this year? Can I estimate what your assets are?" Hurun looked at Lin Feng with interest.

"Haha, it doesn't matter. Money is running water and cannot be piled up. It flows freely as long as it is enough to spend. I am not fighting for money." Lin Feng said casually, people must have a bit of style. Of course, he did not forget to add a sentence in his heart - as long as

It doesn't really matter how much money I have if I can do what I want to do.

Hurun smiled, then asked some questions about Lam Fung Company and its future goals, and declared the end of today's interview.

"Director Lin, aren't you really curious about your ranking on the "Mainland China's 100 Rich List"? You know, this position is very important to some rich people on the list. Some people hope that the higher the better.

But many people would rather go as low as possible." When Hurun stood up, he asked the previous question again.

"Haha, I don't care. I started from scratch, my net worth is clean, and I can withstand the public's doubts." Lin Feng reached out and said goodbye to Hurun.

"See you next time. I believe this issue of "Mainland China's Rich List" will definitely give you a surprise." Hurun blinked, smiled, waved goodbye and left.

"Goodbye!"

After bidding farewell to Hurun, Lin Feng received a call from Liu Yingying.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the b2c plan?" Lin Feng asked worriedly. B2c is Dingdang.com's big plan for the next year. This time, all working capital has been invested in it, and even some of the transaction merchants' retained funds have been used.

After all, although all products are supplied directly by manufacturers, it costs money to build a website and set up repair shops in important cities across the country.

Moreover, Dingdang.com will also set up an express delivery company under Liu Yingying's suggestion. B2c is Dingdang.com as a direct seller. All goods are sent by Dingdang.com, and any quality problems caused will be borne by Dingdang.com. Nowadays, domestic express delivery

When it comes to shipping, it’s hard for people to trust the company’s operating methods. In particular, Dingdang.com mainly sells electronic products, so they must be handled with care, otherwise they will be easily damaged and defective products may result.

At the same time, when Liu Yingying negotiated express delivery business cooperation with other express delivery companies, she did not receive sufficient discounts and absolute product quality assurance. This made Liu Yingying extremely dissatisfied, and she came up with the idea of ​​setting up her own express delivery company belonging to Dingdang.com.

From Liu Yingying's point of view, Lin Feng has money. If Dingdang.com really suffers from cash flow problems, at worst, she can just ask Lin Feng to inject capital again. The 10% shares in her hand can be divided according to how much Lin Feng raises. What's more, she has established her own company.

The express delivery company can not only absolutely guarantee the quality and speed of b2c cargo transportation, but also contract the express delivery business of ordinary individual merchants on Dingdang.com.

Monopoly, what Liu Yingying wants is monopoly. With this condition and opportunity, why not monopoly!

"No, the b2c plan is going very smoothly. Mr. Wang is signing contracts with major electronic product manufacturers across the country. Domestic Meiling and Changhong, and foreign Nokia and Siemens have all reached contracts," Liu Yingying reported.

"Then what happened?" Lin Feng asked in surprise.

"Piaotian Literature City' has also overdrawn its dividends for the next three months." Liu Yingying said with a frown.

"What! Aunt Huang lost so much playing cards!" Lin Feng was shocked.

"Well, I don't know the specific situation. Shuqi can't get through on the phone. But I remember you promised to send Shuqi to Peking University to register. During this time, you were in Japan and you were delayed. What do you think we should do now?" Liu Yingying was worried.

explain.

"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, I will take care of it. By the way, you should pay more attention to setting up a courier company. GPS positioning systems must be installed on each delivery truck. We must ensure that all delivery trucks are on the computer

Under surveillance." Lin Feng reminded Liu Yingying.

"Well, you don't have to worry about this. Just wait for the good news. As for Shuqi, don't delay any longer. This girl still likes you. No matter what, you can't..." After that,

Liu Yingying didn't know what to say. She sighed for a long time and said, "Anyway, it's up to you."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Feng shook his head helplessly. Then he called Chu City and asked his friends Ding Feng and others, as well as his father, and finally understood the whole story.

Huangpiao Astronomy City’s income in the next three months will also include the sale of many items in her home. If the house hadn’t still belonged to the government and she only had the right to live in it, she might even have sold the house.

As for Huang Shuqi, she originally went home to her mother to get tuition. Unexpectedly, seeing the situation at home, instead of asking for tuition, Shuqi gave all of Shuqi's one-month salary at Lam Feng Company to her mother to pay off her debt, and went to Peking University to report alone.
