Chapter 1282 Zhou Chen is on the list, the world is boiling
Christmas Eve!
Christmas Eve abroad is equivalent to New Year's Eve in China, so this day is naturally very festive and solemn.
In the Zhou family villa, the family gathered together for dinner today. There was an apple in front of everyone, which meant that everyone was safe.
"Yingying, I know you can't eat meat and fish right now, so today I specially asked Ma Chen to cook more vegetarian dishes, all of which you like to eat."
Tao Li placed all the dishes in front of Wang Ying, with a very good attitude and a smile on her face.
Wang Ying said gratefully: "Grandma, you don't have to take special care of me. I eat less now. I can eat whatever I want. You can eat more."
Tao Li said with a smile: "You have to eat even if you eat less. You are the person in our family who has to pay most attention to nutrition now. You have to put yourself first in everything."
Zhou Guoxing nodded in agreement: "What your grandma said is, what do you want to eat? Just tell us and ask Ma Chen to buy it and make it."
Wang Ying was very touched by the concern of the two elders. When she was in love with Zhou Chen, the two elders were very kind to her. Ever since she got the marriage certificate with Zhou Chen, not to mention, they really regarded her as their own.
Like a granddaughter.
And now, since she found out she was pregnant in the summer, it is even more serious. Now her treatment at home has surpassed Zhou Chen and has become the number one protected object. From food to daily necessities, everything
Keep her close.
Although she knew that this was the old man's care for her, she was really not used to it being like this all the time. She was used to being served by others, but that didn't mean that she was used to being served by her elders.
Zhou Guoxing and Tao Li were Zhou Chen's only two relatives. As her granddaughter-in-law, she just didn't go to serve them and let them serve her. She felt really bad.
But Tao Li doesn't care about this. In the eyes of the couple, Wang Ying, who is now pregnant, is the number one person in the family. She is as rare as a giant panda and must be taken care of.
You must know that the two of them have been looking forward to this child for too long. Although Zhou Chen is now their grandson, Zhou Chen did not come to them until he was thirteen years old after all, and he does not have the sense of satisfaction that he had when he was raised since childhood.
But the child in Wang Ying's belly is different. If it is born, it will be the child they have raised since childhood. The relationship is completely different.
Wang Ying cast a look at Zhou Chen asking for help, but Zhou Chen gave her a helpless expression, which made her angry.
Wang Ying is now more than four months pregnant. She just graduated with a doctorate degree not long ago. Now she is raising a baby at home. For Zhou Chen and Wang Ying, the baby comes at the right time. For Zhou Guoxing and Tao Li, the baby comes at the right time.
It's even more time.
After finally finishing dinner, Wang Ying was about to go back to the house, but Tao Li said that she would take her for a walk in the yard twice. Although Tao Li had no experience in giving birth, she had learned a lot recently and consulted a family doctor, so
She has been particularly active with Wang Ying recently.
Sometimes even Zhou Guoxing couldn't stand it anymore. He wanted to say a few words, but was shouted back, so he didn't dare to say more.
Zhou Chen originally wanted to say that, after all, only the pregnant person knows the situation best, and he himself is a doctor. He knew that Tao Li's situation was a case of genuine concern and over-tension, just like how adults treat children.
The concept of "I am here for your good" is the same.
But before he could say anything, Wang Ying stopped him and forbade him from saying anything.
So, it seems that Tao Li, the grandmother, is taking care of Wang Ying, but in fact, Wang Ying is also doting on Tao Li, because she feels that Tao Li is really good to her, and she can't bear to let her go.
Tao Li felt sad, so she obeyed.
The two of them were doting on each other like this, and Zhou Chen had no choice but to let them go. He knew that as long as the child was born, the situation would get much better.
She is more than four months pregnant, which is also a very critical time, so it is not easy for Zhou Chen to play meaningful games with Wang Ying at night. He must also pay attention to his movements when sleeping and not bump into each other.
Wang Ying leaned on Zhou Chen and smelled the scent of Zhou Chen. For some reason, after she found out that she was pregnant, many of her habits changed and she developed many strange problems.
For example, she didn't like the smell of gasoline before, but now she finds it pleasant. There is also the squirrel mandarin fish she used to like, but now she feels nauseated when she smells it. As for the kitchen, she can't even go there.
, makes me want to vomit when I smell it.
She especially likes the smell of Zhou Chen's body now. She has to smell Zhou Chen's smell every night to sleep peacefully. She feels that after she became pregnant, the sensitivity of her nose suddenly increased several times.
Others would gain a lot of weight during pregnancy, but because of her poor appetite, she was pregnant for more than four months. Instead of gaining weight, she actually lost some weight.
Although Wang Ying is pregnant, she and Zhou Chen have not actually held a formal wedding yet.
This is of course not because Zhou Chen doesn't want to do it, but because Wang Ying's mother said that Wang Ying's father had just passed away a year ago and was not suitable for a wedding. And the current situation of the Wang family meant that not many people could attend her daughter's wedding, so Wang Ying considered it.
After a long time, I finally decided not to have a wedding yet.
Neither Zhou Chen nor Zhou Guoxing cared much about this matter, and they understood the situation in Wang Ying's family.
Having lived abroad all year round, they are used to the situation of having children before marriage. There are many couples who have children without getting married or obtaining a certificate.
Now that Zhou Chen and Wang Ying have received their marriage certificate, they just didn't hold a big wedding. For them, the most important thing now is naturally their unborn great-grandson. Whether they hold a wedding or not doesn't matter much.
"Grandma went to buy a lot of baby clothes yesterday. It's only just over four months old, and she has bought more than 20 sets, including spring, summer, autumn and winter."
Speaking of this, Wang Ying felt helpless. In the past, Tao Li liked to take her to go shopping at famous brands, but now, everything is filled with baby products when she goes out.
Tao Li really knows how to buy, whether it’s men’s or women’s clothing, she buys at least two sets at a time. In her words, she doesn’t know whether she’s a man or a woman, so she must buy them all to be prepared.
Zhou Chen also found it funny. He had been a father so many times, and he rarely met elders like Tao Li. He was a little too excited and nervous.
"Let her go. She will get used to it gradually. If you don't let her do something at this time, she may be more tormented, and grandpa will be tormented again."
Wang Ying also laughed. There was a difference of more than ten years between Zhou Guoxing and Tao Li, so they could be regarded as an old husband and a young wife. However, in his later years, Zhou Guoxing was indeed controlled more strictly by Tao Li, and he completely lost the excitement of his youth.
Brother's big brother style.
"Qian Xi will graduate next year. She told me that she plans to return to China with He Xiaozhou next year. Have you figured out how to arrange them?"
Zhou Chen said: "Well, the pharmaceutical factory in the capital is about to be built. It depends on Xiaozhou himself. If he wants, he can be the technical director there. But he told me that he wants to teach in a university.
, it depends on how he chooses; as for Xiao Qianxi, the board of directors of Chenxing Capital has passed the plan to establish a branch of Chenxing Capital in China next year. Hasn’t she already switched to financial management? She can go to the branch’s financial department, just look.
Is she willing?"
"Chenxing Capital will enter China next year, so won't your focus of work next year shift to China?" Wang Ying asked curiously.
"Not necessarily. We just need to establish a branch first. The headquarters will still be here, but we will probably travel to the country a few times. We will talk about it then."
Although Chenxing Capital has introduced five-party capital and has a board of directors, there is still no doubt about Zhou Chen’s right to speak. After all, these parties invested in Chenxing Capital because of Zhou Chen’s ability, and Chenxing Capital’s valuation has a huge impact.
Part of it includes Zhou Chen himself.
Without Zhou Chen, the valuation of Chenxing Capital’s initial financing would never have been that high.
The domestic economic situation is getting better and better, and Zhou Chen will naturally not miss such a good opportunity to enter the country. What's more, as a Chinese-American, and his previous donations, he has a great reputation in the country.
Entering the domestic market, you will definitely enjoy great preferential treatment, which is very beneficial to his domestic layout.
"It's really unbelievable when I think about it. Before I met you, I thought I would never get married in my life. But who would have thought that now that I'm not only married, I even have children, and in a few months I'm actually going to get married.
Mom, it’s really like a dream.”
Wang Ying's face was filled with a happy smile. Thinking about it, there have been so many changes in the past few years, which made her feel like she was in another world.
Zhou Chen hugged her, gently stroked her slightly bulging belly with one hand, and said softly: "This is not a dream, you are really going to be a mother, and I am going to be a father. We are a happy family now."
"Well, we are a happy family."
Wang Ying also put her hand on her belly to feel the baby in her belly.
Suddenly, her expression changed.
"Hey, Zhou Chen, he seems to be moving. I feel it. He is really moving. Is this fetal movement?"
For a baby that is more than four months old, it is indeed time for fetal movements. Zhou Chen seems much calmer than the excited Wang Ying.
"If you feel it, then it shouldn't be wrong. It's not obvious now. When the months get older, it will be very obvious when he moves."
"It's really fun."
Looking at Wang Ying who was happily jumping up and down, Zhou Chen smiled meaningfully, "I think it's fun now, but you won't find it fun anymore when you get older."
Wang Ying's expression suddenly became serious and she said, "I have something to discuss with you."
"What's up?"
"It's my younger brother, my uncle's cousin. He is now in his third year of high school in China. But he used to go to an aristocratic school. After something happened at home, he couldn't stand the eyes of his classmates, so he transferred to an ordinary school. His
My grades are average. If I stay in China, my future is probably limited; so my aunt called me a few days ago and wanted to ask for our help to get Wang Xu to study abroad."
"Is he your uncle's son? No problem. I can arrange for him to go to a private high school here. After studying for one year, he can be admitted to university. If he can pass the exam, he will be the best. If he fails, I will pay him to go to a private school.
University."
This is nothing to Zhou Chen. At most, it's just a matter of spending some money. This is his wife's family, so of course he is willing to help.
Wang Ying hesitated and said: "What my aunt means is that she wants to come with Wang Xu. You don't know that my aunt has always been pampered. My uncle suddenly behaved like this and his assets are gone. She and Wang Xu are now living together."
It's very bad. They say they want Wang Xu to come here to study in college, but in fact they just want to come and join me."
"My mother also told me about this. She didn't want me to do this, but my uncle used to take good care of me. Now that something happened to him, I really can't bear to leave them alone."
"I understand what you mean. It's actually not difficult to arrange them, but you also understand that if your aunt and brother don't adjust and come here just to rely on us, we don't lack the money, but are you really prepared?
Have you been raising them?"
"Of course it's impossible. You just need to make arrangements for Wang Xu's school. As for their lives, I have my own arrangements. You don't need to worry about them, and I won't raise them to waste."
Wang Ying is very smart and understands what Zhou Chen means, and also understands why her mother does not want her to take over her aunt and her son, because she is afraid of dragging her down.
But she really couldn't bear it. In the past, her uncle always responded to her requests. When something happened, the first thing she thought of was not her father, but her uncle. So even for her uncle's sake, she couldn't really ignore her aunt and her husband.
cousin.
Zhou Chen nodded, he knew that Wang Ying was a very capable person, and she could definitely handle her aunt and cousin who were having a hard time.
This year's New Year's Eve, Zhou Chen still spent time with Wang Ying, but the difference was that this time they had an unborn baby.
Wang Ying's aunt and cousin came to the United States after the Spring Festival, and it was Zhou Chen and Wang Ying who picked them up at the airport.
When they met for the first time, Zhou Chen didn't have a good impression of them because the Wang family had fallen into decline. However, this aunt turned out to be better. She still wore gold and silver and looked like a fashionable lady. When she met Zhou Chen, she was very enthusiastic.
, Ah Chen and Ah Chen kept shouting, praising and being so enthusiastic that Zhou Chen couldn’t get used to it.
On the other hand, Wang Xu was a bit taciturn and seemed a little nervous when he saw Zhou Chen.
After picking them up, they went back to Zhou's house to have dinner together. As for the rest, Wang Ying arranged everything.
Zhou Chen later learned that Wang Ying had bought a three-bedroom house in her own name for her aunt and younger brother to live in. She had paid for Wang Xu's school fees and would only give Wang Xu a certain amount of living expenses every month.
As for her aunt, Wang Ying found her a relatively easy job in Chinatown. As long as she works hard, supporting herself will not be a problem.
Wang Ying said that her aunt had a fight with her over this matter. In the end, she was resolute and said that if she didn't agree, she would let her aunt go back. As for her brother Wang Xu, she would be responsible for taking care of her.
As soon as she was scared by Wang Ying, her aunt immediately gave up. She went through all the trouble to come to the United States just to hope for Wang Ying's glory. How could she be willing to go back? After returning, she would not be able to survive for long with the only savings she had left.
, she couldn't bear to suffer the cold looks from her former friends, so she could only "aggrievedly" promise Wang Ying that she would go to work on time.
Zhou Chen quite agrees with Wang Ying's arrangement. Although they can support Wang Xu's mother and son, they have no such obligation. It is very good to be able to give her such conditions. If her aunt is not discerning, this door
It doesn’t matter if your relatives don’t want it.
In March after the Spring Festival, the new issue of Forbes' list of the world's richest people was released. As soon as this list was announced, it immediately caused an uproar.
It's not because Bill Gates has returned to the top, nor is it because Buffett's net worth has shrunk significantly, but because an unexpected name has appeared on this list.
Zhou Chen, a Chinese-American, 26 years old, has a personal net worth of US$11 billion, ranking 30th on the world's richest list.
This ranking shocked the world. The main reason is that at the age of 26, Zhou Chen, not counting his family, has made it onto the global rich list with his personal assets, and is still as high as the 30th.
Among the top 100 richest people in the world, Zhou Chen is the only one who is under 30 years old. The others are over 30 years old, and most of them are over 50 years old. Therefore, Zhou Chen is 26 years old.
Ranking the 30th among the world's richest people really shocked the world.
If this list were not the most authoritative rich list in the world, and the possibility of fraud is extremely low, it is estimated that most people would not be willing to believe this fact.
Forbes also published a lot of asset data about Zhou Chen. For example, Chenxing Capital has a valuation of more than 1.2 billion US dollars. Zhou Chen alone holds 60% of the shares. Morningstar Pharmaceutical Group has also been developing rapidly in recent years.
, although it is not listed on the market, its valuation exceeds US$3 billion, and Chenxing Pharmaceutical is Zhou Chen’s sole proprietorship.
In addition, there are many other investments and assets of Zhou Chen, and he finally gave a personal asset of about 11 billion.
Finally, Zhou Chen has almost no negative equity in his name, which means that this value is extremely reliable and may even be more.
Although Zhou Chen's donation last year caused a lot of noise, it was still far inferior to the momentum brought by the Forbes Global Rich List this time. This time, Zhou Chen really entered the eyes of the world.
.
The discussion of this rich list is more intense for Zhou Chen than for the top three combined. Just because Zhou Chen can achieve such achievements at the age of twenty-six, no one knows how high he can reach in the future.
have no idea.
The biggest influence of this list is undoubtedly on Huaxia. Last year, Zhou Chen's name was resounding throughout the country. But this year, the announcement of this list made his name once again make waves and shocked the whole country.
There are many things in this world that can make people crazy, but money is undoubtedly at the forefront, and the global rich list is the dream pursuit of countless people.
Zhou Chen appeared on the global rich list for the first time, ranking 30th with more than 11 billion U.S. dollars. This had a huge impact on the entire China. Zhou Chen, who was originally admired by many people, instantly became
The idol of countless people, especially those young people, can't wait to sleep with a picture of Zhou Chen, the God of Wealth.
Because of what happened last year, Zhou Chen has already received much attention from the officials. This time the list was updated, the officials nominated him again to build momentum for him and call him the "Light of the Chinese".
Among Chinese people all over the world, Zhou Chen is now the richest man after Li Chaoren, but Zhou Chen is more than fifty years younger than him, so Zhou Chen is more legendary than this Superman.
More importantly, Zhou Chen himself grew up in mainland China and left the country at the age of thirteen. Although he is now Chinese-American, his blood and ancestry are the purest Chinese.
People who don't know Zhou Chen regard Zhou Chen as their idol, but those who know Zhou Chen are equally shocked.
Take Qin Chuan's family for example. When their family was having dinner together, they learned the news. Everyone was shocked and suddenly felt that the food no longer tasted good.
Their family is still working hard to pay off millions of dollars in debt, but Zhou Chen is already worth over 10 billion U.S. dollars. Calculated, that is more than 70 billion U.S. dollars, not to mention a lifetime, even ten lifetimes.
Can’t spend all the money?
Xie Qiao and her family were equally shocked, especially Xie Qiao and her father Xie Zirun. His thighs were swollen with hatred. He regretted that he didn't take a photo with Zhou Chen. If he could have taken a photo with Zhou Chen, he would be so happy in the future.
You can definitely walk sideways when you go out.
Regret!
Xu Lin looked at his messy rental house with a sad face, and suddenly the thought came to his mind, what kind of bullshit entertainment news, they are all paparazzi anyway, why not become a dog for Wang Ying...
Even He Xiaozhou and Xiao Qianxi, who are very close to Zhou Chen, were shocked when they saw this list. They knew that Zhou Chen was rich before, but they had no specific idea. But as soon as this list came out, this concept
It's very clear.
Wang Ying's aunt came over shamelessly. Finally, Wang Ying couldn't bear it anymore, so she gave her a red envelope and sent her away.
Even Yang Cheng, who was far away in the UK, called Wang Ying after learning about it, said hello, and also wished Wang Ying well.
The biggest headache is naturally Zhou Chen. His phone has been really bombarded with calls recently.
To be honest, he really has no interest in this list at all. This list is really for reference only. The real richest people in the world are not just the people on the list, but those conglomerates and families.
They are the masterminds behind the scenes, but even the Forbes rich list dare not announce them.
Therefore, Zhou Chen has a very clear understanding of himself. His money is very scary to ordinary people, but it is still far behind for those consortium families with real foundation.
However, he also understands that this is normal. A family that has been run by several generations cannot be compared to his more than ten years of development and management. Time is the first factor that tests whether a family is truly strong.
Although being in the limelight is not what he wants, this list is not without benefits for him. At least it has brought him great reputation and exposure, which will provide him with great help in his future work.
Shortly after the list was announced, he was ready to welcome his first bloodline in this world, and Wang Ying was not far away from giving birth.
