Six hundred and seventeen, Black Blue Tiger and Time Magazine interviews

Tang Ming, Gates and Warren Buffett each rode an Akhal-Teke horse and walked side by side in front, and dozens of assistants and people who kept horses and drivers all followed behind them.

Tang Ming introduced the situation of the alpine pasture to Gates and Buffett.

The total area of the alpine pastures now reaches 3.2 million acres, and all the land is joined together in an irregular rectangle.

There are 200,000 cattle and 300,000 sheep in the pasture, and if it weren't for the severe water shortage in central Australia, the stock of cattle and sheep could have increased a lot.

Tang Ming has plans to invest $2 billion to dig 45 artificial lakes of different sizes in the ranch to store fresh water.

Although in terms of economic cost, this is not cost-effective, because there is no way to recover the cost, but the last thing Tang Ming lacks now is money.

After Gates and Buffett heard Tang Ming's plan, they were also full of amazement, although they are richer than Tang Ming now, they will definitely not spend so much money.

Skirting the Angolo Mountains, an endless oasis of Po Ting grass emerges.

"From here, to the border of the alpine pastures, all the grass is planted. Tang Ming pointed to the front and said.

"Are these the grass?" Gates asked, looking down at the green plants on the ground.

"Well, both. Tang Ming nodded and said, "Of course, except for those trees." ”

"Was this a desert before?" Buffett asked.

"No, this was just a wasteland before, and if you want to see the desert that used to be, you have to go further. Tang Ming said.

As they spoke, they walked forward and came to a halt next to Artificial Lake Zero.

Since deciding to dig another forty-five artificial lakes, Tang Ming named this artificial lake No. Zero, and the other forty-five artificial lakes are No. 1 to No. 45 in order to facilitate memory.

After watching the lake for a while, Tang Ming led them to continue to move forward and came to the former desert area.

When Tang Ming told Gates and Buffett that the oasis in front of them was once full of deserts, they all showed expressions of disbelief, and Gates even said a few words of incredible!

……

It took an afternoon for Tang Ming to lead Gates and Warren Buffett around the ranch, and held a grand welcome reception in the evening.

Early the next morning, Gates and Buffett said goodbye and left.

During this time, they did not make any special requests, and it seemed that the purpose of coming was simple, just to visit the mountain pastures.

At the reception last night, Gates also donated $300 million in cash to the Alpine Charity Foundation on behalf of the Bill and Melinda Gates Charitable Foundation.

The Bill & Melinda Gates Charitable Foundation, founded by Gates and his wife Melinda, is the world's largest charitable foundation, with tens of billions of dollars in assets, and in addition to Gates, Buffett has also donated more than $30 billion worth of shares to this charitable foundation.

This is the first time that the Alpine Charity Foundation has received a donation, and it is such a large donation, Tang Ming and Cornelia discussed it and decided to accept it.

Watching the Airbus A380 and Bombardier Global 8000 fly away, Tang Ming returned to the ranch.

When I got out of the car and walked to the door, I saw a small tiger with black and blue fur and dark black stripes running out.

This is the gift that Gates and Warren Buffett gave him, a black and blue tiger that is even rarer than the white tiger.

"Blackie, come. Tang Ming squatted down and clapped his hands, the little guy hesitated for a moment, and then stumbled into his arms.

Holding Xiao Hei reminded Tang Ming of when Xiao Bai was young, he was so cute.

"Honey, Mr. Gates and Mr. Buffett are gone?" Cornelia asked after seeing him carrying Xiao Hei into the house with Cher in her arms.

"Hmm. Tang Ming nodded, and sat next to Cornelia with Xiao Hei in his arms.

Xue'er stared at Xiao Hei with big eyes, and then stretched out a pair of chubby hands to Xiao Hei, looking like she wanted to hug Xiao Hei.

"Good baby, you can't hold Xiao Hei. Tang Ming handed Xiao Hei over with a smile and asked Xue'er to touch Xiao Hei, but he didn't dare to hug her, for fear of falling Xiao Hei.

Xiao Bai also ran over, looking at Xiao Hei curiously, it felt that Xiao Hei was the same as it, but why was the color different?

"Come, little black, call sister. Tang Ming grabbed one of Xiao Hei's little paws and shook it a few times, saying hello to Xiao Bai, and then said to Xiao Bai, "Xiao Bai, Xiao Hei will be his younger brother in the future, you can't bully Xiao Hei, you know?"

"Woo ......" Xiaobai screamed a few times as if he didn't understand, and he agreed.

"Xiaobai is so good. Tang Ming touched Xiaobai's head and praised with a smile.

Then he put Hei down and let him play.

Xiao Hei came to Xiao Bai's side and sniffed it, and then lay down beside Xiao Bai with peace of mind.

Xiao Bai stretched out his paws, gently touched Xiao Hei a few times, and plucked Xiao Hei several times, Xiao Hei was a little dazed, struggled to stand up, hugged Xiao Bai's paw and bit it.

However, Xiao Hei is too small, his teeth are unfavorable, and he can't bite Xiao Bai's claws at all.

Xiao Bai played with Xiao Hei for a while, and then stretched out his tongue and licked it on Xiao Hei's body.

"Xiao Bai still likes Xiao Hei's younger brother very much. Tang Ming said with a smile.

"Well, Xiaobai is so well-behaved, of course he knows how to take care of his younger brother. Cornelia nodded.

Tang Ming was about to say something, when the mobile phone rang, he picked up the phone, saw that it was Song Qian calling, said to Cornelia, and picked up the phone.

Song Qian told Tang Ming that a reporter from Time magazine wanted to do an exclusive interview with him, Tang Ming thought about it, and then agreed, and asked Song Qian to send the reporter over.

Needless to say, the influence of Time Magazine is the first time Tang Ming has received a request for an exclusive interview from Time Magazine.

In the afternoon, a reporter from Time Magazine arrived and conducted an exclusive interview with Tang Ming for more than an hour.

After the interview, the reporter told Tang Ming that Time magazine had listed him as a candidate for the Person of the Year, and if there was no major event that shook the world in the second half of the year, then he might be elected.

Hearing this news, even Tang Ming, who was indifferent by nature, was a little excited.

Time Magazine's Person of the Year is completely different from the cover character.

Time magazine is published once a week, and the cover character is every week, plus Time magazine is divided into several editions such as the domestic edition in the United States, the international edition, the European edition, the Asian edition, etc., it can be seen that the cover character of Time magazine is not so important.

Of course, this is for a figure of Tang Ming's level.

For ordinary people, if they can become the cover character of Time magazine once, it is already a great event, and they can boast for a lifetime.

The person of the year only selects one person or one type of person every year, and only the most influential person of the year can be evaluated, among which only Chang Kaishen and his wife and Deng Gong have been elected among the Chinese, and Deng Gong has been elected twice, which is also very rare in the whole world.

If Tang Ming is elected this year, he will be the fourth Chinese to be elected as Time Magazine's Person of the Year.
