$70 billion?

There is also a + in the back.

What does + mean?

Abel thought about it carefully, and he wasn't quite sure how much net worth he had now.

Just like he said when he was in the White House and faced with the curiosity of a few bush bosses.

What he is more about now is not how much money he has, not the number in his bank card.

Because it's just that number. Abel, who has a talent for finance, feels that he only needs to give himself time and can have as much as he wants.

What Abel wants more now is influence in all aspects.

It is the power above money, and it is the evolution of money - capital!

Since the beginning of this year, he hasn't had much money of his own.

What he values is how much capital he can influence and use now.

This number, Abel feels is the core of his influence on the surroundings and even the world.

At that time, he faced George and them, and he just picked up some things he knew and said it again.

At that time, the data he told them, Abel remembered, seemed to be more than 60 billion dollars.

Judging from this data, it seems that what Forbes said is not wrong.

Abel took a closer look at Forbes' description of his wealth-

[Abel Smith, this name has been around since last year, and it is clear that the public around the world is no longer familiar with it.] 】

[What the public is most interested in about this gentleman, except for any of his gossip objects that everyone envies, and his appearance as if Apollo was alive]

[Outside of these, the most curious and envious of the public is definitely Mr. Abel Smith, how much money does he have? 】

[This is a very good question, "Forbes" after about half a year of research, finally determined the approximate wealth figure of this gentleman]

[First of all, Mr. Smith has a media company under his name, and this media company can be ranked sixth in Forbes' list of global media groups this year, and it is Smith Media, which is worth $17 billion. 】

[Mr. Smith also has a real estate company called "New Properties", which was founded less than a year ago and has been sweeping goods all over the United States and the United Kingdom. 】

[The new real estate company is like we go to the supermarket to buy potatoes, crazy to buy luxury houses, land, office buildingsIt has been ranked fourth on Forbes' list of national real estate companies, it is worth $8 billion.. 】

[Mr. Smith also has a Pacific Energy Company, formerly known as Sampura Energy.] This is the power giant of Southern California and the West Coast, and it has a market capitalization of $17 billion. In the same type of company, he also owns half of the shares of Pacific Electric in California, worth $8 billion]

In addition, Mr. Smith is a sole proprietor of Pacific Commercial Bank. The bank currently has a market capitalization of $15 billion. 】

[As of this point, Mr. Smith has a fortune of $65 billion.] 】

[In addition to these large companies, Mr. Smith also has a number of small and medium-sized companies under his name, as well as shares of Internet companies such as Google Inc., which we cannot calculate, but speculates that it is about $5 billion, which is only high and not low.] 】….

[More than $70 billion, this is the current wealth of Mr. Smith in the data we have collected]

[Attentive readers reading this will surely find that one of Mr. Smith's most important companies, we have not listed.] 】

[That's right, Smith Capital.] Wall Street's new investment banking giant! 】

[The reason why Smith Capital is not listed is because it is too exaggerated.] 】

[It is reported that Warren Buffett, PNC Financial Services Group and other giants are shareholders of this company. They paid a great price to take a stake in this company. 】

[We don't know what the cost, we just know that the value of Smith Capital cannot be calculated.] 】

【

So here, we are not listing the value of Smith Capital, we are just adding a + symbol after Mr. Smith's wealth number. 】

[+This symbol, here means that Mr. Smith's wealth is by no means more than $70 billion, and he may be richer than all of us think. 】

[What's even more exaggerated is that Mr. Abel Smith is only twenty-one years old this year, making him the youngest on our list.] 】

[He is eight years younger than 29-year-old Daniel Zief, who inherited his property, this is a living legend, he is the American dream in living reality, he]

【. 】

In the second half of the article, Abel looks too familiar.

It's the lighthouse that creates and markets new lamps.

The story of Abel's "$50 to New York" is retold in another way of description.

Abel didn't look any further.

More than $70 billion?

Abel thought about it himself, and it seemed to be something like this.

He flipped it over again.

On the sixth page is the name of William Henry Gates III, also known as Bill Gates.

The rich people in front are more important, and everyone has their own two-page content on a piece of paper.

There is only one page left of the rich man in the back, and in the back is two people crammed into a piece of paper.

Bill Gates, who was called the hegemon of the times by Forbes, has a fortune of $58.2 billion this year.

This is a drop of several billion dollars from last year's more than $60 billion.

This is actually very understandable, the data used by Forbes last year is the data before the dot-com bubble burst.

The effects of the dot-com bubble continued this year, and Microsoft's stock price fell a lot.

Although strictly speaking, Microsoft is not an Internet company, it should be regarded as an IT high-tech company.

But where does the stock market care about this, in the eyes of ordinary shareholders, Microsoft is one of the largest Internet companies.

Microsoft's stock price is naturally also in the monopoly investigation and the bursting of the Internet bubble.

It is also true that Microsoft has achieved a de facto monopoly, which has fallen for so long, and now it has begun to rise again, and it has stabilized.

That's what allowed Mr. Bill Gates to maintain this range.

Abel flipped through again, and the eighth page began with Warren Buffett.

On this, Warren Buffett's wealth figure is $34.5 billion.

It's almost half of the first place, and it's a lot worse than Bill, who finished second.

Behind Buffett is Paul Allen, with a fortune of $32.3 billion. ….

Behind these two, only 29.5 billion is left in the fifth place.

In other words, on Forbes' list this year, there are only these four rich people with a net worth of more than $30 billion.

In the later rankings, Abel is no longer interested.

He threw the thick "2001 Forbes list" on the solid wood desk in front of him.

Abel looked up and smiled, and said to the few men in the room who were looking at him:

"Lookhere, take a few more looks. Sitting before your eyes now is the richest man on our planet."

Listen to a very young boss, with a slight ostentatious tone.

In the office, the four King Kongs plus David.

and Jade and a few others who came in later, all laughed.

The smile seems to be contagious, and it doesn't take a while.

On the 15th floor of the entire Fury Building, the employees of Smiths Capital (UK) also knew about it.

That is their young boss, who has become the richest man in the world.

The smiles on the faces of these employees are half sincere and half are workplace etiquette.

The sincere half is that in a capitalist country, working for the richest man in the world will be more or less more face-saving.

Workplace etiquette

That half, it's the boss who became the richest man in the world but you don't laugh, what do you mean?

And this news also followed the "Forbes List 2001" to be listed in multiple languages around the world, and quickly spread to the whole world.

Of course, ordinary people don't have much interest in who becomes the new richest man in the world.

At most, after knowing it, those who hate the rich will scold a few more times, and those who worship money will become fans.

Ordinary people are centrists, at most they say a few words about Niu X.

But among the business elite, financial people, media people, and people related to Abel.

The power of this news is no less than that of Lop Nur in China in the 60s, the two artificial huge clouds that rose.

East Coast of the United States,

New York.

Manhattan, Hearst Media Building.

In the morning.

Amanda Hirst, who is working as a summer intern at Hearst Media Group with her cousin Lydia Hearst.

She was the first of the women who had a connection with Abel to receive the news.

Who is called the Hearst Group, itself is a media giant.

She happened to be interning in the company again today, in fact, the company's elite employees brought the two sisters to get familiar with the work.

What if you want to take over the family business in the future?

"The richest man in the world!"

"Abel Smith!"

From a supervisor, Amanda Hearst almost jumped for excitement when she learned the news.

Fortunately, this is the company, she held back, resisted the excitement, and took her cousin Lydia Hirst's hand and walked outside.

"Lydia! Lydia! Lydia! As I said a long time ago, he's the only one in the world!"

Amanda excitedly said to her cousin:

"Look. How old is he, only twenty-one years old, and he is already the richest man in the world! Seven billion dollars, that's the equivalent of three Hearst!"

Lydia wondered what he had to do with us, no matter how unique he was.

People are already going to marry bushes.

All of your previous actions have failed.

Looking at her excited cousin, Lydia had to say: ....

"It's very powerful. But—"

She reminded Amanda.

"The Bush family has recognized him. Laura Bush is his girlfriend now, so he's not related to us anymore."

Hearing Lydia Hearst's words, the excited Amanda calmed down a little.

Ever since that time in Hawaii.

Between the two sisters, it has been a long time since they have talked about this person.

The reason is because after that, after February of this year.

Among the upper-class wealthy families in the United States, there is rumor that the bush family living in the white house will marry the Smith family, a small local wealthy family in Texas.

At this time, the shrub family is in the red hour.

The gossip about this family spread quickly within the wealthy families in the United States, especially the celebrities, ladies and ladies who like gossip the most.

The shrub family actually wants to marry a small local tyrant family in the countryside, everyone is very strange.

Later, it was determined that this Smith was the same Smith who was making trouble on Wall Street.

Everyone suddenly admired the quick and decisive decision of the shrub family.

Sure enough, it is worthy of being a shrub family that started by marriage and rose quickly by marriage.

The Hearst family, who originally had some kind of thought, naturally heard the news.

After a period of investigation, the Hearst family determined the authenticity of the news.

After that, Amanda and the two cousins were banned by the family elders.

That is, don't get involved with someone who has already married a bush.

No matter how crazy Amanda's personality is, after all, she is still young, and she was so active with Abel at the beginning, also because of the secret support of her family.

The family now explicitly prohibits it, and even if she is dissatisfied, she can only choose to comply.

Not to mention Lydia.

She is often a small shadow around Amanda in the family, and she is dispensable in the family.

Even if there are some feelings, it is completely out of her control.

The two cousins have never been in contact with Abel since.

Abel was a little afraid of Amanda's madness, she didn't bother herself, and she didn't continue to harass herself by text messages.

It's too late for Abel to be happy, and it's impossible to take the initiative to find her.

Gradually, the two cousins did not contact Abel for several months.

That's what Lydia is talking to Amanda about right now.

It's just that Lydia underestimated her cousin's madness, and saw Amanda purse her beautiful lips silently, and suddenly said to Lydia:

"It's just a girlfriend. None of them are engaged, and even if they are, they are not yet married! What's more, he still has so many women, and the bush may not necessarily combine with him in the end! Lydia, I don't think I can give up!"

Lydia felt a headache to death.

Lydia wondered if she and Amanda were being held by mistake?

She is Aunt Anne's daughter, and Amanda is her mother's child?

Otherwise, how could Amanda be as crazy as her own mother?

Lydia had no choice but to persuade, "Amanda! Do you want to make Aunt Anne angry?! The elders won't allow it!"

"Perhaps." Amanda Hearst said: ....

"But he's only twenty-one years old, and he's already got 70 billion! Seven tens of billion! Oh my God, two Buffetts can catch up with him! Lydia, don't you think mom won't be impressed? I'm going to find my mother!"

As she spoke, Amanda shook off Lydia and walked forward.

Lydia gave a headache and gritted her teeth to follow.

Amanda was in Lydia's eyes when she started to "go crazy" again.

At the other end of New York, in a townhouse on Manhattan's Upper East Side.

Ikana is packing up with her best friend Paris.

After much thought, Ikana finally decided to go to the West Coast to raise a baby and have a baby.

The weather on the West Coast is much better in many places than on the East Coast.

In the greater Los Angeles area and the Greater Bay Area, the climate and weather are very suitable for human beings.

Ikana had already chosen a city to raise her baby in, and she finally chose Santa Barbara, California.

During the process of raising the fetus and giving birth, Paris will accompany her.

One is to take care of Ikana, and the other is to have Paris by her side to help, plus a team of secretaries.

Ikana can also remotely control the development of her own YKM company.

At this time, a pair of girlfriends were preparing their luggage to leave for Santa Barbara.

There is a lot of luggage, and there are several in the list alone.

Some of the things that weren't so close to the body and weren't so important had already been sent before.

Two people are now inspecting, it is more important things, or luggage that has not yet been delivered.

"I said. Ikana, don't you think it's too early?"

Paris pointed to a few boxes of diapers on the ground, "The kids haven't come out yet. What do you buy these for? You can buy it there!"

"Uh" Ikana smiled embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I bought them when I was shopping, I saw them beautiful and cute. You're right, don't take it with you."

Paris nodded with satisfaction, but she was complaining in her heart-

[This Ikana, after having a child in her belly, put all her energy on the child, and her IQ has dropped a lot, really. 】

It's so envious.

This is not a child, this is a listed company.

Paris only hated that she didn't make Abel belly bigger.

Suddenly, Paris threw it on the table next to her

's phone rang.

"Answer the phone. I'll see if there's anything else I haven't brought." Ikana took a few lists of luggage and began to check.

Paris answered her phone easily, "It's me, Paris."

"Dear Paris, it's me!" A girl's voice came.

Paris thought to herself, who are you, not a big man, where will I remember your voice.

"Are you?" Paris asked.

"I'm gold, I'm gold. Oh, I'm Kim Kardashian!"

"Oh, it's gold."

Paris remembered that this was a "little girl" she had recently taken in New York.

Because of his good looks and figure, he was selected by YKM as one of the clothing models for long-term cooperation.

Paris is also the company's design director, and she meets each other a lot.

Because Kim Kardashian is very obedient and sensible, Paris thinks she is very good and takes her to several fashion shows and some drinking parties. ….

Kim Kardashian has officially become her little girl with a bag, and naturally has Paris's contact number.

"What's the matter? Kim, Ikana and I are busy. Tomorrow we're going to California. By the way, your workplace will also be moved to California in the future." Paris said.

"Oh, oh, okay." Kim Kardashian is also aware of Ikana's existence.

That's her eldest sister, eldest sister

In addition, Kim Kardashian also knows that her eldest sister is the girlfriend of a superstar. One!

Kim Kardashian is calling Paris at this time today to say something related to that big shot.

"Dear and respected Paris!" There was excitement, yearning and longing in Kim Kardashian's voice, "I made this call to tell you a message. I don't think you know it at this time."

Kim Kardashian's voice listened excitedly.

So much so that Paris was a little curious at this moment, "What's the matter?"

"It's about the Forbes Rich List."

"What's the matter with me?" Paris said dissatisfiedly, "It's not a celebrity list. And even if it's a celebrity list, I probably won't be able to make it up now. Ikana might be able to go up."

"No, no, no, no!"

Kim Kardashian said excitedly:

"I want to say that in this list of the richest people, Mr. Abel Smith is the richest man in the world."

"Forbes says he has more than $70 billion in fortune!"

"What?"

Paris thought she had misheard.

"Say it again?"

"Abel Smith?"

"More than $70 billion in assets?!"
