The publicity effect brought by the team was much more effective than originally expected, and it was almost immediate without even going through the fermentation period. These three teams immediately became the giants of the spotlight.

But on the other hand, it also failed to achieve the effect of being known to women and children. After all, the current Internet media is still very primitive, and traditional media has limitations.

For example, in China, there are relatively few people who listen, and it has almost no impact. Not to mention, it completely started Li Yuan's popularity.

In the end, isn't it just a few broken teams abroad? Except for a handful of sports enthusiasts, no one else pays attention at all.

Also, how many people in the country will care about NHL leagues like ice hockey?

Many people may not know that American football, American baseball and NHL, like the NBA, were given to CCTV for free, and even sent top games such as the Super Bowl.

But it's useless, isn't it? These sports have no fan base in China. Later, it disappeared as well.

Instead, the NBA was blown out of its god, what David. Stern business talent and so on. Do you really think other professional leagues are fools? Don't they understand this kind of distribution?

There is really no way, there is no way to open the domestic market at all. No one wants it for free!

In addition, in this day and age, even NBA broadcasts are not common. In '93, the Finals began to be broadcast, and now the playoffs have just been broadcast. As a result, the influence is concentrated on a few superpowers, especially Jordan's Bulls. A team like the Denver Nuggets that can't even make the playoffs, which onion is it? There was no broadcast at all.

Then there's the Premier League. The hottest in the country has always been Serie A, and later Lang A was added. Premier League matches have not been broadcast at all, let alone have any impact.

So it's strange that this eyeball effect is instead blooming everywhere outside the wall, but inside the wall doesn't know at all?

……

In this context, Li Yuan agreed to an exclusive interview invitation and received a Chinese media person, Mr. Hurun.

When it comes to Hurun, most people should know that the one that later became famous - the Hurun Report.

In fact, Hurun himself is also a legend, he is a European Luxembourgish, once studied at the Chinese University, and knows seven languages, including Chinese and Japanese. He is also a British Chartered Accountant. He is also a professor at Durham University Business School in the United Kingdom, and is known as the "godfather" of China's private economy. He also has experience working with Arthur Andersen in London and Magic City.

It was during this period, out of curiosity and his own interest, that Hurun wanted to interview and count the first generation of China's entrepreneurial tycoons. Interpreting the changes in China and introducing the stories of those rich people

At the time, Hurun had no idea how sensational the idea was and how influential it was. He just found it very interesting, and it was nothing more than a research document.

Therefore, during this period, Hurun began to use his spare time and vacation to consult more than 100 newspapers, magazines and announcements of listed companies, and began to compile the first wealth ranking in China's history that is in line with international standards.

Of course, due to the fact that Hurun is not well-known now, and there is an old tradition of "wealth is not exposed" in China, he made an exclusive interview request, but almost there was no response.

Unexpectedly, in the end, Li Yuan's consent was obtained. This flattered Hurun a little.

"Hello, Lee. I'm curious, you're the only Chinese billionaire who has agreed to an interview. This came as a surprise to me. ”

"Huh. The main thing is that I'm not used to being under the camera. Fear of revealing any personal privacy! ”

"Thank you! I feel very honored. The list of your wealth that I just gave you, I wonder if you have anything that needs to be corrected? ”

"Hmm...... Let's be honest! Your statistics are a bit underestimated, and what you basically count is the listed companies on Nasdaq Parallel Line Technology and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. In fact, now I have a parallel line in my book, and I personally own a part of the shares, and I am the first major shareholder of this company. In addition, there are two professional teams from Sheffield United in the United Kingdom and the United States. In addition, I still have some fixed assets and enterprises that are not listed in China and overseas. ”

"Wow!" Hurun was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Li Yuan would confess frankly, "How much should it be increased?" ”

"That's ...... Count it as $1 billion! Hehe. Li Yuan smiled, "I haven't calculated accurately. I guess it will never be lower than that. You should be able to understand that I personally have external financing loans. Subtract that part, and that's pretty much the value! ”

In fact, it is quite inconvenient to search for information nowadays. It's not like decades later, when publicly available information was readily available online. Therefore, even Hurun didn't know that Li Yuan also had a listed company in his book, and there were three overseas teams. Not to mention, those domestic companies that have not yet been listed.

Hurun nodded in understanding. In fact, the statistics on the public information are extremely skewed. Some people like to hide some private assets. And some wealth is difficult to count, such as a room full of antiques, how to count this?

In addition, most people have high debts, but in fact, the real net worth is not that much. Therefore, the richest man in China in the future will easily die of light, and the rate of bankruptcy in a short period of time is extremely high. He even became a member of the sewing machine training course.

And this up and down deviation is huge. Even Hurun later admitted that his list was only 60 accurate

"Lee, do those hidden assets really have a $1 billion valuation? I once learned about your experience, you should have passed those IPOs, right? ”

Li Yuan smiled and nodded: "That's it!" Gather most of the questions you have prepared and answer them together. If I'm an elite and I'm a success, no one should deny it, right? But all of a sudden, I was amazed at how much wealth I had. ”

"Oh? Can you tell us more about that? ”

"Of course. In fact, my wealth has skyrocketed, and I personally believe that it comes from three opportunities - the first is to publish a best-selling book. I got a lot of money for the manuscript. There should be millions of dollars, which is equivalent to tens of millions of soft girl coins! ”

"Huh. I know that - I'm just trying to cheat some money! ”

"Yes, yes! At that time, the expected manuscript fee was several thousand yuan, but I didn't expect it to be tens of millions. Anyway, good luck! I have a neighbor with a pot of gold. ”

"Uh-huh."

"The second is to seize the opportunity of listing and financing. Hurun, in fact, you should be very familiar with the current development of domestic private enterprises. At that time, there should not be one or two entrepreneurs with more money, better technology, and ability than me, right? But why don't they have such a fast rate of asset growth? It's just that they're too honest. ”

"Haha? Too honest? ”

"That's it. This honesty is not a derogatory term. They are diligently doing business, and they are accumulating raw capital point by point. However, they have not completely opened up their international vision, and in terms of capital operation, they are limited to self-accumulation and bank loans, and they have not found that there are still listed IPOs. ”

"Understood, what do you mean, you seized the opportunity to go public and raise funds?"

"That's true. Through continuous financing and refinancing, I currently have more than a dozen listed companies at home and abroad. Slowly, a scale effect was formed. And here, I can be honest - in the coming years, I have quite a few companies that have launched IPO plans. ”

"And what about the last point?"

"The last point, of course, is the computer IT outlet. My main source of wealth, as you should know, comes from Parallel Line Technology. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled. Hurun continued to ask, "Li, if there is a self-made list, you should be ranked very high, right?" ”

"I don't know?" Li Yuan shook his head with a smile, "From the perspective of personal wealth, in fact, this money is enough, and there is no need for me to continue to work hard." This makes me wonder a little bit, it seems to have surpassed most people. ”

"Alright! Your path to success should be considered ...... Legend it! Hollywood should be interested. Hurun joked, "But there's one more thing, you shouldn't be too old, right?" ”

"That's right! I am 28 years old. I'm still a kid. ”

The two laughed.

"Li, take the liberty of asking, I believe many people are curious, your success is too fast, even faster than all Rao imagined. So what are your plans for the future? Do you want to improve yourself? ”

"Huh." Li Yuan shook his head, "I'm really successful now, but I'll just talk from my heart!" All of these previous riches were almost all accidents......"

"Huh? Accidentally? ”

"That's right! Maybe you don't know, I also have a computer IT company in China - Parabolic Technology. The focus is to open up the domestic Internet market. I also have a Tree of Life AgTech business. In the future, we will continue to merge and acquire some related industries and develop in the fields of agriculture, animal husbandry and fishery. Qinglong Automobile, that is, one of the future development directions in the field of electric vehicles. There are even research in sub-fields such as unmanned driving and automatic navigation. Phoenix New Energy, with solar energy as the core, is the industrialization research of other clean energy. ”

"Huh?" Hurun was stunned for several seconds. He didn't expect that Li Yuan would have his own industry in so many fields.

Li Yuan smiled slightly: "Many people haven't noticed that times have changed!" We are in an era of technological revolution where life in the future will be completely changed. Therefore, there will be great breakthroughs in various high-tech fields. ”

"This ......"

"Now you know, right? My $1 billion is still quite conservative. These will lead to future developments. ”

Hurun finally lifted his spirits. Originally, this interview thought it was an ordinary road to wealth. Unexpectedly, Li Yuan actually has such ambitions, which completely subverts the current high-tech pattern?

"Lee, I have a question here. It's not that there's something wrong with your research direction. But high-tech should be a lot of money, right? What do you do if it doesn't work out? ”

"Hehe, Hurun, your idea is a little off. In fact, all these high-tech projects should have completed basic research, right? The only problem is that the cost is too high to be industrialized and replace the original traditional goods. For example, solar energy. The cost of solar power generation far exceeds the existing traditional power generation methods? ”

"Uh-huh."

"So here, I'm mainly doing industrialization research to reduce costs as much as possible. When these high-tech goods are cheap enough, it will inevitably trigger a series of changes. ”

"Is it like lowering the cost of solar power generation?"

"That's right! That's it. If the price of solar power is low enough, it can replace traditional resources such as oil and coal. The cheapening of traditional resources can also reduce the price of chemicals, and transmit it to the prices of various commodities. In addition, the price of electricity is cheap, and the electric vehicle industry will also develop rapidly. ”

"So?" Hurun was interested, "It turns out that this is your ideal." Do you want to do a business? ”

"This is it. Change lives and lead the way. ”

"So in your opinion, are these just changing our lives?"

"Of course it's more than that." Li Yuan smiled, "The others should have biotechnology, right?" There is also superconductivity, nuclear fusion, and so on. But that's not my specialty, so I'll leave it to others to study! In addition, there is aviation technology. The same needs to be studied by aviation experts. However, in this area, I also funded some money, which is - the Kua Father Project! ”

"So ......"

"Hehe......"

……

The interview was very pleasant, and the two fully exchanged their views.

The reason why Li Yuan accepted this interview was mainly because of the huge influence of the Hurun list. He wants to inspire more people in China to devote themselves to these fields through his own personal experience.

Hurun's movements are also very fast, he is originally a hobby! Anyway, it only took a few months, and Li Yuan was the only one interviewed.

Through Forbes magazine, China's first wealth list "China's Top 50 Richest List" was published. There are only 50 people. And the content is rather rudimentary. Most of the wealth is based on speculation. There are no exact numbers, just "more than 1 billion" or "50 million to 100 million".

In addition, the qualifications for being on the list are "50 million to 100 million" is enough.

What's even more interesting is that many of the people on this list were short-lived and never appeared again.

For example, there is a long history of selling melon seeds, and there is no one of the most famous 10,000 yuan households in China. Famous trendsetters. Zhao Zhangguang, the founder of Zhang Guang 101 who treats hair loss, female star Liu Xiaoqing and so on.

And among these billionaires, the number of tech tycoons is very small, and 7 are engaged in the health care products or beverage industry.

The only two left on the list, except for Li Yuan, who ranked first - more than 50 billion. is Sohu Zhang Chaoyang, who is at the bottom - 50 million to 100 million. Apparently occupies one end and one tail.

However, it was this extremely humble list that suddenly caused a sensation in China!
