Chapter 1258 - Ascending to the top of the richest man
Feng Yu's eyes showed a thoughtful look: "You said wind and rain consultation? I haven't been paying attention to that company for a long time, maybe. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Steve was stunned, he never thought that Feng Yu would give him such an ambiguous answer.
What is called maybe, there is something, there is nothing.
However, listening to Feng Yu's tone, even if there is no $50 billion, the gap will not be very large, and it is conservatively estimated that it will be more than $45 billion.
With such a big investment, Feng Yu actually said that he hadn't paid attention to it for a long time?
How is this possible, such a large asset, anyone will pay attention to it from time to time. Even if you hire a professional manager to take care of it, you should at least listen to a report once a week, right?
But looking at Feng Yu's expression, it didn't seem like he was lying. Besides, with Feng Yu's net worth and his understanding of Feng Yu, Feng Yu doesn't bother to lie about this kind of thing.
Steve thought for a moment and put it another way: "Feng, some people say that the assets of Taihua Holding Group exceed two hundred billion US dollars, I think the other party estimates less, I think there are three billion US dollars, at least, am I right?" ”
Feng Yu looked at Steve with a smile, you directly asked me how many assets I have, anyway, I still won't tell you.
How much money do I have, why should I tell you?
If it weren't for Steve's promise this time, he would have helped Feng Yu promote some companies and brands, and Feng Yu wouldn't have given him the opportunity to interview.
"Pretty much."
Steve was a little mad, and it was this ambiguous answer.
What do you mean by almost? Is it about 20 billion, or is it about 30 billion? That's a difference of $10 billion, that's a lot!
Ten billion dollars, that year, is enough to rank in the top 20 or even the top 15 of the Forbes rich list!
"Is it okay for me to estimate $30 billion?" Steve asked reluctantly.
"Whatever you want." Feng Yu put on a look of indifference.
Steve was deflated. Others regard being at the top of the Forbes rich list as an honor, and they can't wait to tell Forbes all their net worth.
If Forbes' rating is low, it will also publicly announce that Forbes' data is wrong and his ranking should not be so low.
But this Feng Yu, and many Chinese people, don't seem to like Lu Fu, they desperately hide their property.
Is it really as rumored by the outside world that the rich are not allowed to appear in China? But it's not right, Feng Yu has been the richest man in Asia for a long time, and I only see Feng Yu's assets growing, but I don't see a decrease.
If Feng Yu is that kind of miser, it's not right. Although Feng Yu did not donate much in the United States, when the incident happened last year, the companies he controlled also donated a lot of money. And it is said that Feng Yu is in Huaxia and donates more.
He received a news a few days ago that many of Feng Yu's companies have sponsored a large amount of money for the 08 Olympic Games in China, totaling more than 2.5 billion US dollars!
A person who can donate such a large sum of money at once says that he is a miser, who believes it!
This question is too difficult, Steve can't figure it out anyway, so he can only guess that maybe it's an ancient custom on their side.
"Feng, then can I think that your actual assets in the two holding companies have exceeded six billion dollars?"
This is a conservative estimate given by Steve, and if he is bold, he even thinks that Feng Yu's assets have exceeded $70 billion.
However, Microsoft's stock price has plummeted in the past two years. Gates's net worth is assessed at $59.2 billion this time, so as long as Feng Yu admits that he has $60 billion, he is already the richest man in the world.
This has another benefit for Forbes, and that is that when Microsoft's stock price recovers, Bill? Gates' net worth could easily exceed $60 billion, and when people think Bill? When Gates returned to the top of the rich list, Feng Yu's net worth exceeded $65 billion, or even $70 billion, which was of great benefit to the sales of Forbes.
Anyway, Feng Yu's net worth has always been a mystery, and others don't know whether what he reported is true or false. But according to his estimates, it will only be considered low, not high.
At that time, as long as this data is recognized by Feng Yu, he believes that there should be no problem.
Feng Yu thought for a moment: "Bill? What is Gates' current net worth? ”
"$59.2 billion, and Microsoft's stock price is still fluctuating, and there is even a risk of falling again, so his assets are likely to continue to shrink." Steve had nothing to hide.
"Count his Foundation?" Feng Yu asked curiously.
"Forget it." Steve was a little puzzled, what Feng Yu was concerned about that foundation, the assets of that foundation were not very many.
Feng Yu nodded, Bill at this time? Gates has not invested most of his net worth in the foundation, so his foundation assets should not be too high.
In his previous life, it was in 08 that Bill Gates really made this decision and donated all his Microsoft shares to their couple's foundation, and the market value of these stocks at that time was nearly $60 billion.
But now, although his foundation also has small assets, it is still not much.
"So if I admit that I have $60 billion in assets in those two companies, I'll be the richest man in the world?"
Hu Yan, who was listening to the side, had a feverish look in his eyes, and Zong Qing stabbed him first, and then he hurriedly whispered a translation.
Zong Qingxian was also stunned, he managed Taihua Holding Group, of course he knew how many assets Taihua Holding Group had, but he didn't expect that Fengyu Holdings had so many assets.
Didn't Feng Yu just transfer some funds from there some time ago to donate back, why are there so many?
So, Feng Yu is already the richest man in the world? The richest man in the world is a Chinese?!
Steve, Zong Qingxian, and Hu Yan all stared at Feng Yu, waiting for Feng Yu to give an affirmative answer.
Feng Yu suddenly smiled: "Since you think there is, then it's good." I guess even if I don't admit it, you're going to write that, right? Do you even want me to completely disclose my assets to refute you? ”
The three of Steve all looked shocked and at the same time felt a little relieved. It seems that he guessed correctly, Feng Yu is indeed the richest man in the world.
A person whose assets are hidden and unwilling to be exposed will not falsely report his assets too high.
"Feng, then in the next issue of Forbes, I will publish that your assets are 60 billion US dollars, do you have no opinion?" Steve reconfirmed.
"No comment, so be it. What is there to compete with the world's No. 1 in assets and the No. 2 in the world, they can't spend it anyway. Feng Yu said indifferently.
Steve was a little speechless, in Feng Yu's eyes, maybe he really just thought it was enough to spend. But for others, this ranking is too much to care about.
It's just that Feng Yu, a freak, has become the richest man in the world!
