Soon, the electronic file of the latest issue of "Forbes" was transferred to Jimmy's computer.
The gangster mentioned a list titled "China's 50 Richest People in 1999", and "Forbes" directly put this title on the cover of their new issue of the magazine, and also designed a special cover for it
: A character with a Chinese face. The two sides of his body have different styles. One side is wearing an old Chinese tunic suit, and the other side is holding a mobile phone and a gold watch.
What does the cover of "Forbes" specifically want to express? Is it the contrast between China's new era and the old era, or the contrast between the rich and the poor in China today?
Maybe both.
Jimmy controlled the mouse and flipped directly to the list page. The first place was YuDong (YU). What was displayed after Yudong's name was his wealth figure: more than 30 billion yuan.
It's not a specific number, but "above" is used to describe it.
Behind the number is "Deep Space Group Corporation".
Perhaps because the business development of deep space is too broad to be summarized, the industry annotation of "Deep Space Group Company" on the list is "diversified."
There have been constant discussions about Yu Dong's net worth. On a TV show in Baodao, a commentator put Yu Dong's net worth at one billion U.S. dollars, which attracted a lot of attention at the time.
Many people don't think that Yu Dong's net worth can be so high, because Jimmy has always been the boss of Deep Space America, so ordinary people think that Yu Dong's main source of wealth should be his royalties and copyright income.
Because the official website of Deep Space has always published detailed data on the sales of each book by its authors, it is not difficult to calculate Yu Dong's royalty income as long as you are willing to put some effort into it.
Someone has calculated before that Yu Dong's royalty income is indeed very high, but if you divide 70 to 80, he will only get 700-800 million yuan.
The total copyright income that can be found over the years is only US$100 million. As for Yu Dong's share of deep space, no one knows, and it is impossible to estimate it at all.
However, since the rise of the Deep Space Tribe, the outside world has valued the Deep Space Company at more than seven billion U.S. dollars. In other words, as long as Yu Dong's total shareholding in the Deep Space Group can exceed 10%, his worth will be
It can reach a billion dollars.
No matter how everyone discussed it before, one billion US dollars was just a figure made up by TV commentators, and many people were skeptical.
But "Forbes" is different. "Forbes" is regarded as authoritative by many people in terms of rich statistics. Since it is a list published by their magazine, people are naturally willing to believe it, even if the number this time is much higher than one billion US dollars.
.
In this list, Yu Dong became the richest man in China.
This is actually not a strange thing, because even if Yu Dong keeps a low profile, there has been too much news about him in recent years, and everyone knows that he is rich. If you ask people to name a rich man in China, many people will think of it.
In the East.
But the key point is that in this list, Yu Dong is completely unparalleled. Behind him is Rong Yiren of International Trust Investment, whose wealth is shown to be more than one billion yuan.
There is also a note at the bottom of the list. Due to the difficulty in data collection, the list does not display specific numbers. It specifically sets up a total of seven levels: ss, s, a, b, c, d, and e, which represent 30 billion to 4 billion respectively.
Ten billion, twenty billion to thirty billion, ten billion to twenty billion, one billion to ten billion, five hundred million to one billion, one hundred million to five hundred million, fifty million to one hundred million.
Yu Dong is the only SS position, and the S and A positions behind him are both vacant. In addition, he is also the youngest in this list, but in terms of age, he is not the best, Lu Junxiong, who started his career in stamps, is 19
Born in 1967, he is only one year older than Yu Dong.
After reading the list, Yu Dong twitched his lips and asked Jimmy: "Is this list accurate?"
Jimmy nodded, "At least the statement 'more than 30 billion yuan' is accurate, but you are definitely not in this SS file. You have to add a few S's."
Yu Dong himself doesn't know how much Yu Dong is worth. The one who knows it best is probably Jimmy, who is always thinking about the little money in Yu Dong's pocket.
Jimmy looked at Yu Dong again and said with interest, "Your performance this time is a bit beyond my expectation. Aren't you afraid of being too high-profile?"
Yu Dong smiled and shook his head, "Now I've figured it out, I'll have to face it sooner or later, and it's useless to care too much about this kind of list. Even if it's not accurate, we can't sue them. It's not a mistake. But the security guard does
Need to step up, especially my family."
"Well, it's a blessing in disguise. What happened this time has at least made you understand the importance of security." Jimmy smiled, then suddenly turned to look at Zhang Qianli aside, "Old Zhang, can you tell us something?
What's the situation?"
Lao Zhang asked with a smile, "I know what the two bosses want to know, but I can't tell you. I can only guarantee that our mission is to protect you two...mainly Teacher Yu."
Jimmy pouted. He felt that Lao Zhang and the others' mission did not include protecting him at all. To be honest, he was a little unbalanced about this. Who wouldn't want to have a protective umbrella above their head?
Although Lao Zhang did not answer clearly, his words confirmed Yu Dong's thoughts. In fact, when Lao Zhang and the others arrested the person, they did not send him to the police station immediately, but arrested him for interrogation.
"How many people did you dispatch to catch these seven people? Including you." Jimmy asked again.
Lao Zhang said with a smile, "I can tell you two that this morning, in order to escort Teacher Yu and Teacher Cheng to the park, our company dispatched two teams, including me, a total of eight people. Do the two bosses have anything else to do? If
There is nothing else, I need to report the situation to the company now. As for those gangsters, we are going to hand them over to the local police in the next step."
"Okay, it's okay, you can go back."
After Lao Zhang left, Jimmy said, "Looking at Lao Zhang now, I always feel that he has a gun on his waist, and his temperament has changed a lot. By the way, how are you going to deal with this matter?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Let's leave it alone and see how they deal with it."
"Them? Do you mean Zhongxiang Security or the police?"
"Both."
Jimmy nodded, looked at the "China Rich List" on the computer again, and laughed, "The author said that it took several months of investigation to come up with this list, but I guess it's better than that with my eyes closed.
The data he obtained are accurate, and it is a joke that even these people with a net worth of less than 100 million can be on the list."
Although Yu Dong did not understand these things, he also knew that this list would not be too accurate. China is not very wealthy now, but there are definitely not so few rich people. Some of the rich people he knows worth over 100 million have not entered.
in this list.
To take the simplest example, China Film and Deep Space cooperated to get investment from local bosses to make movies. The local bosses flocked to the film and worked hard to send money to China Film and Deep Sky.
The amounts of money these people gave away were not small, ranging from one to two million to as much as two to thirty million.
These are all real cash, not in installments, and the money was transferred directly before the project even started.
Isn’t that a joke that the owner who spent 20 to 30 million in cash at one time is not even worth 50 million? It is estimated that after this list spreads, many wealthy bosses will be unconvinced and think that they can also be on this list.
.
…
The "Forbes" list of rich people spread into the country faster than Yu Dong and the others expected. Before Yu Dong's autograph session ended in the afternoon, the translation of the article was posted to deep space by a netizen, and that netizen also
I made an extremely exaggerated title.
"Shocking, this writer became the richest man in the country by writing books!"
Although Yu Dong's name is not written in the title, the first person's name that comes to mind when any netizen sees this title is Yu Dong, because apart from Yu Dong, they can't think of any writer who can become the richest man in a country.
The title of "richest man" is still relatively new in China. There has never been such a list in China before. Now a list suddenly appears, and everyone is willing to join in the fun.
[Izumi: I knew it was me, Yu Da, before I clicked in to take a look. But then again, Yu Da didn’t make all his money from writing books.]
[Princess Yuezhi: Indeed, I saw someone analyzing before that Teacher Yu’s royalties are less than one billion yuan.]
[No. 1 in the world: This is not easy to divide. For example, many of the movies adapted from Mr. Yu’s novels have to continue to give him money. This part should also be considered as the income earned from writing the book.]
[Today’s Sleeping Wolf: Didn’t it say that Teacher Yu can earn millions of dollars by writing a script? 】
[On paper, it turns out to be shallow: This kind of one-time payment for scripts is not high, but it is the kind of movie that pays more dividends.]
[Nalan Juyi: Let me tell you a little tidbit, the several popular games under the name of Deep Space were all designed by Teacher Yu, and he can get a share of the dividend for every copy of these games sold. 】
[The page is loading: I have indeed heard this statement, but I also heard that his share ratio is not high. Most of the money is still earned by the Deep Space Group. It seems that Jimmy James is the big boss.]
[Nalan Juyi: I don’t know the share ratio. 】
[Northeastern Souvenirs: Hehe, I wonder if they included Teacher Yu’s salary at school when calculating his net worth.]
[Liu Jinfa: What? Is Yu Da’s salary at school also very high? 】
[Northeastern souvenirs: As far as I know, they cost more than 2,000 yuan a month, and the miscellaneous items add up to tens of thousands of yuan a year. 】
[Jin Kefan: Pfft, I thought Jin Yi’s salary level was exaggerated. However, Teacher Yu should be the richest people’s teacher in the world. 】
[Sequoia Shisui: Of course, you are already the richest man. Come on, Teacher Yu, try to become the world’s richest man. 】
[Capital Scout: That’s too difficult. The world’s richest man announced by Forbes this year is Bill Gates, with a net worth of more than 80 billion U.S. dollars. The gap is too big. But with the teacher’s wealth, he can squeeze into the top 100 of the world’s richest people.
Yes, Mr. Yu was not included in the previous Forbes rich list. I don’t know why.]
[Taimu: This Bill Gates is too powerful. He has more than 80 billion US dollars. It would take 80,000 days to earn one million US dollars a day, which is more than two hundred years. 】
【Asian Birds: Let alone one million US dollars, I will be very satisfied when I can make one hundred dollars a day.】
[Mandarin ducks in the sea: According to the current development speed, making a hundred dollars a day is probably not very difficult to achieve. 】
[Ten minutes on stage: I recommend coming to Jinling. The salary in Deep Space is really high. One hundred a day is normal in Deep Space. 】
[Xifeng: Really? I major in electrical engineering, do you want deep space? 】
[Ten minutes on stage: Uh... I really don't know about this... But what is certain is that they need more types of talents, such as literature and history, music, choreography, art, computers, foreign trade, foreign languages, etc.
As long as you can get in, your starting monthly salary will be two thousand.】
[Return: Are there two thousand security guards? 】
[Glass Man: You are just trying to make excuses. How can any security company have more than 2,000 people?]
[Ten minutes on stage: There are not 2,000 security guards, but there are more than 1,000, which is pretty good. Anyway, I think it’s good to be the richest man in Da. Deep Space has really done a lot of good things over the years, and I feel this most deeply in Jinling.
】
[Woodpecker Paradise: Of course, Deep Space earns foreign exchange. It can actually bring money from the pockets of foreigners to the pockets of us Chinese people. It is different from other companies.]
[Red Bird: It’s true, I’ve never thought about this problem before. 】
[Dancer in the book: I don’t know about anything else. Anyway, we have several schools here that are donated by the Deep Space Corporation, and the Deep Space schools are donated from beginning to end, and they really consider the students.]
…
Of course, there are not all positive voices regarding this rich list. There are many controversies both domestically and internationally.
That same day, the British Financial Times published an article commenting on this rich list - Socialist countries have capitalists.
The Wall Street Journal, Reuters and other media have also made comments. The Wall Street Journal said that it is worth mentioning that China is the first country where a writer has become the richest man, which is unmatched by other countries.
Reuters stated that the Chinese people have finally found the glorious feeling of getting rich, especially when their richest man is a great writer, this feeling of glory should be irrefutable.
Of course, some proud foreign commentators joked: When I first saw this list, I was shocked, until I later saw that the unit was yuan.
…
When Yu Dong saw these comments, he just laughed. Some people took this kind of list seriously and compared China's richest list with the world's richest list. In fact, it is also evidence of China's rapid economic development in recent years.
In the past, they probably wouldn't have paid much attention to this list.
As for the list of the world's richest people, Yu Dong also found it quite interesting, because he knew that the list would definitely shrink a lot in less than two weeks.
In the 1999 ranking of the world's richest people, one-third of them made their fortune in the technology industry, and many of them were in the Internet industry.
