The courage to refuse the government's request to cross the border did not have much impact on Han Hao, but he suddenly became popular in the United States, half a world away.

If the American people are asked to name the most famous Chinese now, it is estimated that the word "Han Hao" should be one of the popular candidates.

Because Han Hao officially appeared on the cover of the main page of Time Magazine in the United States, he became the cover character of the current issue. Behind his portrait is the Great Wall, the symbol of China, and at the foot of the Great Wall there are two Jaguar and Land Rover cars with red flags.

"China's capital vane!"

In a simple and clear sentence, Han Hao's identity is said.

This is not the first time Han Hao has been associated with Time Magazine, when the Chinese mainland rich list was first announced in 1999, Han Hao, who ranked second, overshadowed the red capitalist Rong family and appeared on the cover of the Asian edition of the weekly in one fell swoop.

At that time, the cover introduction was - "Here they are, rich people from China." ”

You must know that the rich are regarded as capitalists, and they have been criticized and attacked in China, and they are the targets of government suppression. In the 30 years since the "public-private partnership", China has followed the principle of egalitarianism, the plutocratic capitalists have been basically wiped out, and the social wealth of the 800 million Chinese people before the reform and opening up is not much different.

It was not until after the reform and opening up that China abandoned the ultra-left development line that transcended the historical stage and began to introduce a market economy for the development of the country in a realistic manner. In just over 10 years of development, China has given birth to a billionaire, which naturally attracted the attention of the Western media, and only then did he appear on the cover of the Asian edition.

Eight years have passed, and Han Hao is still firmly at the top of China's rich list, but now his influence has surpassed Asia and begun to cover the world.

From the regional Asian edition to the main page of Time Magazine with global coverage, the distance that needs to be crossed is a dream that many entrepreneurs cannot achieve in their lifetime.

Today, the 32-year-old super-rich man from China has become the second person in China's business community to top the cover of the main page of Time Magazine.

It is reported that the acquisition of Jaguar Land Rover is only the first step for the young richest man in Chinese mainland to go overseas, and he is working tirelessly towards the goal of globalization.

Behind him, the rising power of Chinese capital is preparing to make its voice heard in the global economy.

......

Some commentators believe that the Chinese government's recognition of the existence of wealthy capitalists represented by Han Hao indicates that they will continue to adhere to the goal of reform and opening up.

......

After years of practical attempts, pragmatism began to be accepted by the Chinese, who no longer entangled in ideology, but jointly moved forward for the goal of national rejuvenation and people's prosperity.

......

Or we can think that as long as we can continue to see the name Han Hao on the rich list, then there is no need to worry about the opening policy of the Chinese government to invest in China.

......

Therefore, we can call it 'China's capital vane'. ”

The conclusion of the pun can be said to say the double meaning of Han Hao.

The reporter of "Time Magazine" not only regarded Han Hao as the pioneer of Chinese capital, and entered the US market through the merger and acquisition of Jaguar Land Rover, thus reminding people that Chinese capital should not be underestimated; in addition, Han Hao was regarded as the vane of China's market economy and even reform and opening up, as long as the Chinese government can tolerate the existence of super billionaires who accept legal operations, then it shows that the opening policy has not changed, and there is no policy risk in investing in China.

Why Han Hao can be on the main page of "Time Magazine", in addition to the acquisition of Jaguar Land Rover as the fuse, the main reason is that the rapid development of China's economy has made the world unable to ignore, China is no longer a dying lion, but has become a dragon with sharp teeth and claws.

Han Hao's interview with Time magazine was very popular, and his honest and honest answers skyrocketed his popularity.

"Since I was a child, I have received an education that there is no home without a country, especially when I read about the history of being bullied in modern China in middle school history textbooks, I wanted to build the motherland strong to resist any threat.

I remember very clearly that when I was a child, a newspaper at that time reprinted a foreign news, saying that many of the Chinese in exile abroad were illiterate and illiterate, but that the intellectual elite had stayed on the mainland. Unexpectedly, the illiterate descendants of exile overseas built the economic miracle of the Asian Tigers, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore, the three major regions dominated by overseas Chinese, with developed economies and prosperous wealth. On the contrary, Chinese mainland, which houses the elite, is far behind Taiwan, Hong Kong and New Zealand, and even its economic strength is not as good as the sum of them, and it has become one of the countries with the largest number of poor people in the world. Such a huge contrast, to be honest, woke me up at the time, and many people who loved this land.

Every generation has the responsibility of each generation, and it is the responsibility of our ancestors and fathers to resist the invasion of foreign enemies and realize national independence; it is the turn of our generation that the historical responsibility should be to vigorously develop the economy, catch up with the level of the developed countries in the world, and build China into a modern country.

So, my goal in life is very simple, to make Chinese cars the best in the world, or you can also understand it this way, I want to beat other competitors in the automotive field, so as to contribute to China's economy. ”

After several twists and turns, Han Hao nodded and agreed to the interview with the reporter of Time Magazine, and he said his life goal very sincerely when he was asked.

"Are you worried that your position as the richest man will one day be lost? Or are you worried about the safety of the billionaires you have in China, which is a very large number in China? You know, China has a very high Gini coefficient, which shows that the gap between the rich and the poor is huge, and you will be the target of many people. ”

Journalists from the United States are more incisive in their questions than their domestic counterparts, and they know what kind of questions readers like to see the most.

"The Chinese have believed in the concept of hard work and prosperity since ancient times, so I think people don't care who is rich, but the unfair way of distributing wealth.

As long as you make a fortune through your own hands and minds, I don't think anyone will be prejudiced against them, and they will even become an example to inspire others to start a business and learn. As for other people who have made their fortunes through illegal means, I think the law will punish them, and everyone will not bother to be in their company.

Living in China, I feel very comfortable because this is the land where I was born and raised, the rule of law has been established, and the wealth I have is very safe. For these wealth, I will follow the principle of coming from society and returning to society. In fact, I have very little personal and family expenditure, and most of my wealth will be used for economic and public welfare activities.

The position of the richest man does not mean much to me, but I hope that a latecomer will snatch it up, which shows that we have another outstanding business elite in China, and can also make the media reporters and the general public who have long been tired of seeing my face find freshness.

It will take only a few decades for China to follow the path of the developed countries of the West for hundreds of years, and there will certainly be many contradictions and difficulties in the process of catching up and surpassing in such a big stride. The gap between the rich and the poor is an objective phenomenon, but I believe that the Chinese government can find a solution.

A few days ago, I called for raising the IIT threshold in the hope that ordinary workers would be able to reduce their burdens and thus increase their real income. ”

Han Hao's net worth surpasses that of other Chinese billionaires, and even the richest people from the second to the tenth place are all added together, and they may not be Han Hao's opponents. As a result, the controversy over his wealth has not stopped, and this time he is responding to them head-on.

"Your proposal for IIT reform has caused quite a stir, and it is said that the Chinese authorities are soliciting opinions to improve the issue of tax reform that the people are calling for.

Based on this incident, will you further participate in politics in the future and use your influence to do more for society and the country?"

Journalists from the United States naturally thought of the national tradition of "business excellence", and many well-known entrepreneurs turned into high-ranking officials of the US government were also very interested in Han Hao's movements.

"I'm a businessman, and it's my lifelong goal to get a good car, so I'm not interested in politics.

China is very different from the United States, so your assumptions are wrong from the start. My call for raising the IIT threshold is to fulfill the duties of a deputy to the National People's Congress, which is also the obligation of Chinese citizens. ”

Businessmen are taboo in politics, so Han Hao will not jump into the trap of the other party, and will not expand after a simple answer.

"China's economic aggregate has been rising, and this trend shows no signs of slowing down, and it is very likely to become the second largest country after the United States. As a result, '*****' has recently come into the spotlight again, what do you think about this?"

From the point to the surface, the reporter of "Time Magazine" intends to get a glimpse of China from the point of Han Hao. You must know that the United States and even the world are strange to ordinary Chinese people, and Han Hao is one of their windows to understand the situation.

"I think any foreign friend who comes to China can feel the warmth of the Chinese people, we use the best things to entertain guests, and we can know that the descendants of Yan and Huang are one of the most reliable partners in the world.

Since I have dealt with foreign partners, I have never heard of the idea of '*****', but everyone praises China for providing cheap and durable goods to the world, which greatly reduces the cost of production and living for everyone.

It is difficult for a gentleman to chase a horse, and we Chinese have been talking about credit since ancient times. Foreign partners all said that it was reliable to do business with our Zhonghua Group, and asked for further deepening cooperation.

Fear comes from misunderstanding, and I think that those foreign friends who have a 'threat theory' view should go to China to see it on the ground and feel the performance of real Chinese, and they will definitely give up such unreliable ideas. ”

Han Hao also wondered in his heart whether these foreign experts and scholars who put forward theories had really come to China after the "China Collapse Theory" and then the "*****". Without investigation, there is no right to speak, and it is not a responsible attitude to talk nonsense in order to cater to public gimmicks.

"Finally, can you tell us a little bit about your family life?"

Seeing that the questions were basically asked, the reporters began to put the finishing touches on their work, and it should be said that the results of today's visit were very good.

"I'm very busy, it's normal to go out early and come home late every day, and I would like to thank my wife for helping to take care of the family, she is the most successful investment choice of my life.

Next summer, we will have a new young member in our family, which is what I'm most happy about in recent times. ”

At the end, Han Hao revealed a big secret for the first time, that is, he was going to be a father again.

Time magazine's global influence is undeniable, and Han Hao's presence on the cover shows that the existence of Chinese entrepreneurs has been made known to the world.
