Yu Jingqiu was watching from the side, smiled, and said, "It's almost scaring people to death, it's not enough, hehe..."
After she finished speaking, she picked up the newspaper and read:
"
No. 1 on the world's richest list, Chronos Li.
Net worth: $120 billion.
Age: 26 years old.
Main sources of wealth: computers, semiconductors, software, games, pharmaceuticals, film and television media, Internet...

"
Yu Jingqiu turned the magazine a few pages back, which contained a detailed introduction to Li Zetian's assets, so he continued:
"
The market value of Gene Technology is: US$40 billion, wholly-owned.

…
…
"
After Yu Jingqiu finished reading, he smiled: "Well, there are obviously many companies that Forbes magazine doesn't know about, so they didn't count them."
Li Zetian also laughed. In fact, 120 billion US dollars is not a lot at all. He was just joking. How could he sue Forbes magazine? He's not Saudi Arabia's Prince Alwaleed, who is suing Forbes for being undervalued. Alwaleed is known as the Arabian "Warren Buffett" and has the title of "Middle East God of Stocks". Although his identity background has helped him a lot, he is also a very powerful person.
However, Alwaleed, who is one year older than Li Zetian, is still in graduate school, while Li Zetian is already wealthy.
At this moment, the outside world is crazy!
Just because Li Zetian's worth is too high, it's just against the sky!
This issue of Forbes magazine must be the most sold issue. It was sold out in the morning. Although it was urgently reprinted, it was sold out again in the evening.
That day, Li Zetian made the headlines of major newspapers!
"Los Angeles Daily": "Shock! Shock!! The world's first billionaire!!!"
"The New York Times": "Chronos Li is a billionaire, and his wealth exceeds the sum of the next 9 richest people!!!"
"Time Magazine" said: "Chronos Li is another super rich man in the United States after John Davidson Rockefeller!!!"
"USA Today": "America's New Super Consortium - The Lee Family!!!"
"… "
The melon eaters were shocked and stunned. Although they knew that Li Zetian was rich, no one listed his wealth one by one, so they were not shocked. But now, with the release of the "Forbes Rich List", people have seen rows and rows of astonishing numbers. How can we not be surprised!
This is probably the most sensational news in 1982! ! !
Almost the whole world knows that Li Zetian has become the richest man among the billionaires.
An economist said:
"
Chronos Li is the richest man in American history, much richer than John Davidson Rockefeller!
John Davidson Rockefeller was the first millionaire in the world to exceed $1 billion. Of course, the dollar was very valuable at that time. The average salary of workers was between $200 and $400 per year. The average salary of today's workers is 12,000 per year. Between USD-24,000.
In other words, the dollar was worth 60 times what it is today. In other words, John Davidson Rockefeller's $1 billion is now $60 billion! And Chronos · Li's wealth is 120 billion US dollars, twice his! It's unimaginable!
"
The GDP of all countries in the world has already been released one after another.
At this time, someone discovered that Li Zetian's wealth could actually be ranked 17th in the world!
Ranked 17th in GDP is Indonesia ~ Indonesia, with a GDP of $114 billion; ranked 16th is Iran, with a GDP of $143 billion. At this time, China's GDP is only 282 billion US dollars, while the US GDP is 3345 billion US dollars!
"Chronos Li is a real rich country, most countries in the world are not as rich as him!!"
People were so shocked that they could hardly speak, and many were so depressed that they almost vomited blood.
"My God, my wealth doesn't even have one of his ten million!"
"Why are some people so rich and we are so poor? This world is not fair!!!"
"Yeah, the gap between the rich and the poor is too big!"
"I really want to rob Chronos Li once!"
"Damn it, you are courting death! Don't you know that the bodyguards around him are all very powerful special forces?"
"… "
While people are surprised by Li Zetian's wealth, the hatred of the rich is also becoming more and more serious.
At this time, the media exposed Li Zetian's philanthropy.
"After the Chronos Li foundation established the LY Foundation, they have devoted themselves to charity every year. According to incomplete statistics, since the establishment of the LY Foundation, more than 350 LY orphanages and more than 730 LY hope schools have been established in total. The specific list is as follows:
1976:
Los Angeles LY Orphanage
New York LY Orphanage
London LY Orphanage
LY Orphanage, Kowloon, Hong Kong
Taipei LY Orphanage
Brasilia LY Orphanage
Jakarta LY Orphanage
Cambodia LY Orphanage
Cape Town LY Orphanage
…
LY Hope School, Los Angeles
LY Hope School, Kowloon, Hong Kong
…
…
1977: ?…
1978:

1982:

"
As soon as this list came out, everyone was shocked when they looked at the rows of names.
"Love Chronos Li, a real man, a real philanthropist, who has donated and built so many orphanages and schools, worthy of respect!!!"
"I don't know if I don't see it. It turns out that Chronos Li is such a man full of love in his heart. He uses his actions to explain what charity is!"
"I live in Kowloon, Hong Kong, and there is a LY orphanage and LY Hope School nearby. In Jin Yong's writing, 'the great man is for the country and the people.' Chronos·Li truly interprets the word 'chivalry' and admires him !!!”
"I have always regarded Chronos Li as an idol, and now seeing this list, as his fan, I am not ashamed!!!"
"Oh, how much did it cost to set up so many orphanages and schools! Chronos Li's act of righteousness will live on forever!"
"Take it from the people, use it for the people, love knows no bounds!"
"It's really shocking to see so many orphanages and schools. There is no one else who can do this!"
"Chronos · Li is really 'spending money', can he be like other rich people 'save' and spend all the money in the world buying houses, sports cars, yachts and planes!!!"
"As a professional troll who hates the rich, if you don't spray me, you can give yourself an explanation: Chronos Li, you donated so many orphanages and schools, aren't you afraid of longevity?!"
"I'm going, this rich man really can't spray, go and spray the next one! Who is the second in the "Forbes Rich List"?"
"Like a little Japan?"
"Spray him to death!!!"
