Before Li Jianhui arrived in the front row, Li Guobao, who had already arrived, smiled and said: "Jianhui, you are the center of media attention wherever you go now. It seems that the name of the world's richest man is indeed big enough. I don't know."
Can I be on the list of the world's richest people in my lifetime?"
People are like this. Those who haven't climbed up are full of longing for it, but after actually sitting on it, they feel like a tiger's bench and want to get off immediately.
Li Jianhui is in the limelight this year. In addition to becoming the world's richest man himself, Xinjian Group, Lane Crawford, Watsons, and Tesco Group have entered the world's top 500 companies.
Although profits are not as good as those of some companies in Xiangjiang, retail companies have a natural advantage in terms of revenue.
The real name of the world's top 500 is the world's top 500. They are not ranked by profit, but by revenue. Therefore, do not think that the companies in the top 500 must be strong. Although some companies are included, their net income is
The profit may be negative.
Of course, there is another ranking method that ranks companies based on their market value, which only counts listed companies. Currently, the top ten companies are all monopolized by the United States and Japan.
However, HSBC and Huihong are still very impressive and have entered the top 100, becoming the only local companies in Hong Kong to enter the top 100 in Hong Kong. As for Standard Chartered, which is in the top 100, this company is headquartered in England and is not counted in Hong Kong.
In terms of market value, Xinjian Group is at a disadvantage. The powerful Xinjian Group is not listed. Currently, Lane Crawford ranks first in market value, with the latest market value as high as 16.8 billion Hong Kong dollars.
Although it ranks fourth among local listed companies in Xiangjiang, behind Huihong, HSBC and China Power, it has not yet entered the world's top 100 by market value.
Li Jianhui thinks that he might suggest that Forbes learn from the way he did later on, and some people entered the ranking directly with family assets. In the previous life, there were many people in the Hong Kong Rich List who entered directly with family assets.
But after thinking about it, forget it. That will only hurt yourself. It is better to use Forbes' current rules, which only count personal assets on the surface, which can reduce the exposure of family assets to the public eye.
From now on, Li Jianhui needs to be more careful about the lists compiled by Forbes. This guy doesn't stick to the bottom line like Forbes does.
After sitting down, Li Jianhui said to Li Guobao: "If you really want to enter this list, just change East Asia Technology to your own personal ownership. I believe that in ten years, you will be a regular on the Forbes World Rich List, not to mention number one.
There is still hope to stay in the top ten.”
"Forget it, I'm just saying it. We have been adhering to the golden mean since ancient times. Let others take the limelight. Our East Asia Li family is better off developing in a low-key manner.
Besides, being too famous is not always a good thing. Look at you now. Whenever you go out, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at you. There is a lot less fun in life. We are not as free as we are. We go to Lan Kwai Fong all the time."
Li Jianhui was unwilling to respond to Li Guobao's showoff. In the past few years, he had also gained a deep understanding of the lives of the second generation of Xiangjiang. Many wealthy young men were really among the flowers. Compared to the young masters of the rich second generation,
Li Jianhui can definitely be regarded as a young man with positive energy.
Lei Juekun, who was sitting on the left side of Li Jianhui, answered: "National Security, you are afraid that you will not cause enough trouble. I heard that the two of you in your family have not been very harmonious recently.
Your brother-in-law has been making a lot of moves recently. Your father-in-law has put him at the helm of the family business. The Desheng Group is quite powerful.
And he has established Desheng Pictures, threatening to surpass your East Asia Pictures within a year and enter the top ten of Xiangjiang Pictures. It seems that he is very dissatisfied with you just letting his sister be your second wife."
Li Guobao, who was still a little proud at first, suddenly became depressed when Lei Juekun mentioned this. To say that Li Guobao's ability is really great, the first house is the Feng family, a long-term partner of the Li family in East Asia, and the second house is also not a simple task.
The family is the Pan family, a well-known watch family in Hong Kong.
Don't look at Li Jianhui's four wives, but really speaking, Li Jianhui is far from Li Guobao. It shows his ability to be able to make two wealthy women commit themselves to him.
However, there are also unspeakable hardships in this. For example, his second brother-in-law, whose abilities are equally outstanding, returned from graduation to start his own business, and achieved great success, and even established the Desheng Group.
It was listed on the Far East Exchange at the beginning of the month. Its market value is as high as 2.3 billion Hong Kong dollars. The Pan family controls 65% of the shares. The family owns nearly 1.5 billion Hong Kong dollars in this group, directly entering the ranks of Hong Kong's wealthy families.
Because of the rapid economic development in Hong Kong in recent years, the threshold for recognition of wealthy families by all parties has also been raised a lot. Nowadays, a family without assets of one billion Hong Kong dollars cannot be called a wealthy family.
And having one billion is not enough, you also need to have a sufficient network of relationships. It is best to be a member or a preliminary member of the five major associations in Hong Kong.
Because of the relationship between the Pan family and the Li family of East Asia, the network is naturally not a problem. Now that the assets have reached the threshold recognized by all parties, there is no obstacle to the new wealthy family.
However, as Li Guobao's brother-in-law and an elite who has returned from studying abroad, he is naturally not happy about his sister's identity, so it is inevitable that he will have conflicts when he is with Li Guobao.
Fortunately, both parties are relatively controlled, and the quarrels will not affect the cooperation between the two companies. It is just that the young head of the Pan family wants to overpower Li Guobao in some industries. This is the period when the Hong Kong film industry is developing rapidly.
Everyone has also set their sights on this.
Because of the huge profits made by several films of Jiayi and Jiahe last year, as well as the expansion of Golden Princess Cinemas, Wheelock Cinemas and their allies, Xiangjiang Films has been able to expand its presence in Southeast Asia, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, North America, Western Europe and even Latin America.
The local release also ushered in the spring for the Hong Kong film industry. Last year alone, there were nearly a hundred more film companies, large and small, in Hong Kong.
Currently, Xiangjiang Jiayi, Jiahe, and Xinyi City are ranked in the top three. As for who ranks first, Jiayi or Jiahe, there is no conclusion yet.
Ranked fourth to tenth are Shaw Brothers, Wing Sheng, Kowloon, Si Yuan, Far East, Walsin, New Asia, and East Asia Pictures, which happens to be ranked eleventh, only one step away from tenth.
Pan Disheng is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. He shouts slogans to enter the past life. This is not only to defeat East Asia Pictures, Xinhui Pictures, Wing Heng Pictures, Haojiang Pictures, Asia Pictures, and Hesheng Pictures.
They are the ones they want to suppress.
These film companies are all backed by large groups and families. Regardless of the loud slogans of Desheng Pictures, it is not easy to achieve this goal.
"Hey, Uncle Lei, that kid just came out of society and has been supported by everyone. He hasn't suffered many beatings from society, so he talks a little crazy, so don't worry about it.
Desheng Pictures has just been established, and I hope you can take care of it. I heard that Golden Princess Cinemas' overseas theaters are still supporting the release of films from the other three major Chinese consortium film companies.
After all, Desheng is one of our own, and we should help him. The growth of Desheng Group also increases the strength of our Donghua Association."
