631 [Asia's richest man?]

Just when Song Weiyang's "daydream" was known throughout the country, this year's "Forbes China Rich List" was released. The top assets made countless people stunned, and even wondered if Forbes was wrong, because Song Weiyang's personal assets skyrocketed by 9 billion in a year, measured in dollars.

Due to the financing of Sequoia Capital and other institutions, as well as Google's public offering of shares, by the time of Google's listing, the shares held by Song Weiyang and Taurus Capital had been diluted to a little more than 30%. On the first day of trading, the market capitalization of these stocks rose to $8.6 billion, and at the time of Forbes' statistics, it became $9.3 billion!

is still rising, and the market value of Google shares in Song Weiyang's hands has exceeded $12 billion!

You must know that on the list of the world's richest people announced at the beginning of this year, Li Chaoren's total assets are only 12.4 billion US dollars, and Song Weiyang's assets are equivalent to a direct increase of three-quarters of Li Chaoren.

Google is still too awesome, last year's market share was still second, this year it jumped directly to the first, and left the second place far behind - Google hooked up with AOL, the world's largest Internet company, now all use the Google search engine.

AOL chose to cooperate with Google, of course, because of its own interests, and it wants to confront Microsoft and Yahoo head-on in the Internet field.

After cooperating with AOL, in just half a year, regardless of the Chinese market, Google's search share has accounted for more than 50 percent of the world!

However, the stock prices of NetEase and Sohu have been falling, adding up to hundreds of millions of dollars for Song Weiyang. The impact of Tencent's listing seems to be small, only allowing Song Weiyang's assets to rise by $300 million, but soon there will be 400 million, and Tencent shares are slowly rebounding in the past few months after the first day of breaking.

Adding up to these factors, the data released by the Forbes China Rich List becomes: Song Weiyang, 28 years old, China, 15.4 billion (US dollars), diversified investment.

In second place is the Rong family, with assets of $1.5 billion.

The third is the Huang boss of Gome, with assets of 1.3 billion US dollars, and this one only had 200 million US dollars last year, which directly increased more than six times.

Ding Sanshi, who ranked second last year, has been thrown to sixth place due to the continuous decline in NetEase's stock price.

Therefore, this year's Forbes China Rich List stunned everyone, because the total assets from the second to the tenth place add up to less than half of Song Weiyang's assets.

When people opened the global rich list at the beginning of the year, they suddenly found that Song Weiyang was far richer than Li Chaoren, enough to rank in the top 20 of the global rich list!

The richest man in Asia!

"Two days ago, it was said that Song Weiyang was unscrupulous and daydreamed all day long, but now he is dumbfounded when he sees the Forbes rich list, right? What is Li Chaoren? It only earned more than 12 billion US dollars in a few decades, and Song Weiyang made 9 billion US dollars in a year!"

"9 billion is an old calendar, Google's stock price has risen in the past few months, and Song Weiyang's assets are likely to have reached 17 billion US dollars. ”

"Stocks are all paper, maybe they will fall next year. You see how awesome Ding Sanshi was last year, and his assets plummeted by one-third this year. ”

"What is sour, is it so difficult to admit that Song Weiyang is awesome?"

"No matter how awesome it is, the money Song Weiyang donated last year can't even rank in the top ten on the charity rich list. This is a typical example of being rich and unkind!"

"No matter how people say it, they donate tens of millions of yuan a year, which is much better than those keyboard warriors who only know pantothenic acid. ”

"Don't forget, Song Weiyang donated 100 million at the end of 02, which was the time when Jianlibao made a bet on sales. If this money is donated a month late, he will be the second on the list of charity rich!"

"All that money is earned from selling Jianlibao, not consumers' money?"

"You stupid, right? The company's money, take the company's account, and the donor will also write the company's name. The donation information released by the Youth Foundation at that time was written in Song Weiyang's name, which is equivalent to saying that Song Weiyang donated 100 million yuan out of his own pocket!"

"The company's money is not Song Weiyang's money?"

"Oh my God, please go to Xifeng's public information, due to several additional new shares and option incentives for executives, Song Weiyang's shareholding ratio has dropped to 55%, and only half of Xifeng's money is his. ”

“……”

There is everything said on the Internet, some people admire Song Weiyang, some people are proud that China has produced the richest man in Asia, and some people show obvious hatred of the rich.

What is very nonsense is that the public opinion about Song Weiyang not donating money has intensified, and some people even made this into a joke and used QQ messages and mobile phone text messages to spread it. Bill Gates has more than $10 billion and only donated more than $10 million last year, and it's still in RMB. Finally, one more sentence, not to turn is not Chinese!

This kind of brain-dead joke is still very marketable, and in just half a month, it has spread on the Internet and mobile phones.

Hurun saw the opportunity and came to the door again, hoping to help Song Weiyang run a charity dinner.

Song Weiyang not only agreed to this matter, but also took the initiative to contact the Youth Foundation and donated 50 million yuan every year to launch the "Dream Realization Action" to help poor students realize their college dreams. As long as the poor students meet the relevant conditions, after passing the review of the local Youth Foundation, each person can receive a stipend of 4,000 yuan per year, and the 50 million yuan can subsidize 12,500 poor students every year.

After the announcement of the "Dream Realization Action", the media praised Song Weiyang for his love to help students, but many people who hated the rich felt that Song Weiyang was too stingy.

When Song Weiyang was interviewed by China Youth magazine, he was asked by a reporter: "Do you donate 50 million yuan every year to support poor college students because of those public opinions on the Internet?"

"No, what do I care about them?" Song Weiyang said with a smile, "Actually, I donate money every year, as long as I have a clear conscience." I don't have much communication with the Red Cross, I have always cooperated with the Youth Foundation, and in the past, I mainly donated money to help out-of-school children, but this time I expanded the scope to poor college students. People who say that I donate 50 million a year are stingy, probably don't know what the concept of 50 million is. It is estimated that there are 5 people who can immediately take out 50 million yuan from their personal accounts and do not break their muscles and bones. To be honest, if it weren't for Tencent's listing, I transferred my shares and cashed out hundreds of millions, and I would have struggled with the 50 million yuan in cash. ”

The reporter asked again: "Some time ago, you said at the entrepreneur forum that China will crush the traditional manufacturing industry in Europe and the United States. This caused quite a stir and a lot of heated discussions, why did you say that?"

"A wake-up call for entrepreneurs, so that everyone can prepare early. Song Weiyang said with a smile.

The reporter asked: "If what you say is true, aren't you afraid that Europe and the United States will wake up?"

Song Weiyang laughed: "Capital is profit-seeking, I don't have so much energy, a few words can change the manufacturing trend in Europe and the United States." Even if the president of the United States realized this problem and was implementing an industrial revitalization plan, he could not get the capitalists to get the money back to the United States to invest. ”

The reporter asked: "When do you think China's GDP will surpass Japanese benzene and become the second in the world?"

Song Weiyang said: "This was a very hot Internet topic two years ago. Regarding when China's GDP will surpass that of Japanese benzene, at that time, the positive netizens said that it was 2020, and the opposing netizens said that it would be at least 2100 years, and both sides used a lot of information to prove their views. Judging from China's economic growth rate after China's accession to the WTO, it is predicted by basic statistical methods that it will probably be around 2010, and the error will not exceed two years. ”

The reporter asked: "In the middle of the night in China yesterday, Google in the United States closed at $186, up 6.7%. You know what? Your own Google stock has a market value of more than $16 billion. ”

Song Weiyang said with a smile: "Most of the stocks are held by Taurus Capital, and I am only the major shareholder of Taurus Capital, and not all of this money is mine." ”

The reporter also smiled and asked, "Why did you invest in Google in the first place?" Have you ever thought that Google can have today's development?"

"I thought about it, so I voted. Song Weiyang said.

This question was somewhat unexpected by the reporter: "When you invested, you expected that Google would grow to a market value of tens of billions of dollars?"

Song Weiyang said with a smile: "I think Google's market value will soon exceed $100 billion." ”

"You've always been so confident?" the reporter asked.

"I should say that I am very optimistic. Song Weiyang said.

The reporter asked again: "What are the plans for the next step, is it convenient to reveal?"

Song Weiyang said: "In the next step, Hurun will help me plan a charity dinner. I didn't make it as big as Warren Buffett, I just auctioned off a meal, and the proceeds went to charity. ”

"China's version of Warren Buffett's dinner?" the reporter asked.

"Song Weiyang's dinner," Song Weiyang corrected, "the bidding will start next month, and we have already contacted the auction house." ”
