Lin Cheng talked and laughed with the bigwigs from all sides, and Lin Jifan, Lin Ruofeng, Lin Yunhao, Lin Yuhang, Lin Guoming and other people who had a relationship with Lin Cheng not far away, and the children of the Lin clan who had a relationship with Lin Cheng were all extremely complicated when they saw their fathers and ancestors showing the most humble attitude towards Lin Cheng.

At the beginning of 1998, as the children of the major clans of the overseas Lin family, they came to Puyang, the Netherlands on behalf of the family, to participate in the New Year's ancestor worship activities of the Lin family, and it was at that time that they met Lin Cheng, the richest man in the world.

At that time, in their eyes, Lin Cheng was nothing more than a little minion who came to climb their feet in the name of the Lin clan, just like a petty official who begged them to invest in the local government, as long as he threw him a dog bone, it was enough to send him away, and it was a thing that could not be put on the table.

Treating Lin Cheng, they all had a condescending attitude at that time, but when they had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Lin Cheng, who was regarded as a little minions by them, showed a sharp edge, not only did not flatter them like other mainlanders, but brazenly declared that the Lin Group he founded was a large enterprise with tens of billions of assets.

In this regard, although they didn't say anything, they probably didn't believe it in their hearts, and they only thought that Lin Cheng had blown off the cowhide in order to bluff them.

But thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, in the next three years, they witnessed Lin Cheng go from the mainland to overseas, to the world, until he became the richest man in the world, and became the most top-notch group of people in the world's power pyramid, throwing them off so that they couldn't even see the cigarettes on their butts.

Now, Lin Cheng was only more than ten meters away from them, and he only needed to walk more than twenty or thirty steps to come to Lin Cheng's face, but Lin Cheng was surrounded by family heads and elders who were breathless in the family, and they didn't even have the qualifications to come forward and toast Lin Cheng with a glass of wine.

Who would have thought that Lin Cheng, whom we met three years ago, would have created such a big situation!" Lin Jifan drank half a cup of bitter wine and sighed.

Before the Asian financial crisis, Lin Jifan's grandfather Lin Shaoliang had been the richest Chinese in the world for several years, even if he was as strong as Li Chaoren and Li Zhaoji, he was crushed under him.

But a financial turmoil that broke out in 97 hit Lin Shaoliang's various industries hard, and Suharto in the background was cut off by mysterious forces, causing Lin Shaoliang to return to the pre-liberation period overnight, and fell from a Chinese super-rich to an ordinary rich man in Southeast Asia.

As for Lin Cheng, although Lin Jifan didn't say it back then, he was the one who despised Lin Cheng the most in his heart, but he didn't expect that three years later, he didn't even have the qualifications to be jealous of Lin Cheng, and even his grandfather asked Lin Cheng's armed guards for protection, and the business also depended on Lin Cheng's face, and the gap was so big that it was desperate.

Lin Cheng felt different from ordinary people, of course, he also saw Lin Jifan and the others who had been staring at him from a few tables, but there was a huge gap in identity, so that Lin Cheng could completely ignore these peers who were a few years older than him and teenagers.

Now the people Lin Cheng is dating are either the big men who are at the top of the wealth list, or they are the patriarchs and elders of the wealthy families, except for a few people who are relatively iron, the same generation and Lin Cheng have opened a huge gap, and it is difficult to talk about it together.

……

On June 21, US imperialist time, the 2001 annual Forbes global rich list was newly released, and Forbes said that in the global technology and Internet stock crash environment, many wealthy people who had skyrocketed in the past due to the sharp rise in Internet stocks have also shrunk their net worth sharply with the plunge, and even many of the richest people on the top of the rich list last year have evaporated tens of billions of yuan.

This year, Bill Gates once again won the runner-up on the rich list, and was pressed by Lin Cheng for the second consecutive year, with a total personal wealth of 58.7 billion US dollars, compared with last year's peak net worth of nearly 100 billion US dollars, evaporated nearly 40 billion US dollars.

It is worth mentioning that the rich list from eighth to twelfth is occupied by five members of the Walton family of the Walmart supermarket chain, and their wealth is very even, Jim Walton, who ranks eighth, has a fortune of 18.8 billion US dollars, and Helen Walton, who ranks twelfth, also has 18.5 billion US dollars.

In addition to Lin Cheng, Bill Gates and the Walton family, the third place on the list of the richest people is Warren Buffett, known as the "God of Stocks", with a wealth of $32.3 billion, the fourth Microsoft shareholder Paul Allen, with a net worth of $30.4 billion, the fifth Oracle Larry Ellison, with a net worth of $26 billion, the sixth place is Albrech, the CEO of Theo & Karl of Germany, with a net worth of $25 billion, and the seventh is Prince Waleed, a Saudi Arabian prince, with a net worth of $20 billion.

As for Lin Cheng, after being born in 2000 and winning the world's richest man in one fell swoop, he won the world's richest man again this year, and his net worth reached an unprecedented $162.8 billion, far behind Bill Gates' $104.1 billion.

According to Forbes, Lin Cheng's wealth mainly comes from the shares of listed companies in his hands, of which the total market value of Lin's Holding Group reached 885 billion Hong Kong dollars, and Lin Cheng's shares still held 45% of the shares after several reductions [diverted to a hidden and complex holding company], worth 398.25 billion Hong Kong dollars, equivalent to 51 billion US dollars.

In addition, the scale of the enterprise is several times larger than the Lin Holding Group, the mainland Lin Group, with the successive listing of Feixiang Agricultural Machinery and Ji Lingyuan Restaurant, plus BBK, OPPO, vivo marketing all over the world, becoming a world-famous electronic brand, conservatively estimated that the assets of the Lin Group should be around 600 billion yuan.

In addition to the scattered shares of Feixiang Agricultural Machinery and Jilingyuan Restaurant, Lin Cheng's shares in other companies of the Lin Group account for almost ninety percent, that is, 540 billion, equivalent to 65.3 billion US dollars.

In addition to the Lin Group and the Lin Holding Group, Lin Cheng's wealth also includes a variety of overseas investments, with a capital of $15 billion today, $6.5 billion from Apple, $11.2 billion from Daewoo Motors, $2.5 billion from Imperial Pictures, and $3 billion from Legendary Cinemas......

In addition, Forbes also publicly praised Lin Cheng as "the greatest entrepreneur of the 21st century", "the red dragon from China", and even praised Lin Cheng as "the Napoleon of the East".

The world's richest man was seized by Lin Cheng from China for two consecutive years, and the people of the United States reacted quite enthusiastically to this, except for a small number of people who were conquered by Lin Cheng and became brainless fans, the right-wing forces once again played the old tune of "The Theory of the Chinese Threat", setting off a new round of anti-China upsurge.

As for the country, there is no doubt that a violent "Lin Cheng whirlwind" has been set off, and Lin Cheng's figure and name have frequently appeared in mainstream media such as CCTV, "Mass Daily", and "Huaxia Society", and they have been in the limelight. (https:)
