Chapter 228 Super shocking!
Yu Jingqiu also watched from the side, smiled, and said: "It's almost scary, it's still small, haha..."
After saying that, she picked up the newspaper and read:
"

Net worth: $120 billion.
Age: 26 years old.
Main sources of wealth: computers, semiconductors, software, games, pharmaceuticals, film and television media, Internet...

"
Yu Jingqiu turned back a dozen pages of the magazine. There was a detailed introduction to Li Zetian's assets, so she continued to read:

…

"
After Yu Jingqiu finished reading, she smiled and said: "Well, obviously there are many companies. Forbes magazine doesn't know about them, so it didn't include them."
Li Zetian also laughed. In fact, US$120 billion is not a lot at all. He just said that jokingly. How could he sue Forbes magazine? He is not Prince Alwaleed of Saudi Arabia suing Forbes for being undervalued. Alwaleed is known as the "Warren Buffett" of Arabia and the "Middle East Stock God". Although his identity and background have given him a lot of help, the man himself is also a very powerful figure.
However, Alwaleed, who is one year older than Li Zetian, is still in graduate school, while Li Zetian is already as rich as anyone in the country.
At this moment, the outside world is going crazy!
Just because Li Zetian’s net worth is so high, it’s simply unbelievable!
This issue of "Forbes" magazine is definitely the one that sells the most. It was sold out in the morning. Although it was urgently reprinted, it was sold out again in the evening.
That day, Li Zetian made the front pages of major newspapers!
"Los Angeles Daily": "Shocking! Shocking!! The world's first billionaire!!!"
"The New York Times": "Chronos Li aspires to become a billionaire, with wealth exceeding the next nine billionaires combined!!!"
"Times" said: "Chronos Li is another super-rich man in the United States after John Davidson Rockefeller!!!!"
"USA Today": "America's new super conglomerate - the Lee family!!!"
"..."
The people who ate melons were all shocked and stunned. Although they knew that Li Zetian was rich, no one listed his wealth one by one, so they were not shocked. But now, with the release of the "Forbes Rich List", people have seen rows of amazing numbers. How can we not be surprised!
This is probably the most sensational news in 1982! ! !
Almost the whole world knows that Li Zetian has become the richest man among billionaires.
One economist said:
"
Chronos Li is the richest man in American history, much richer than John Davidson Rockefeller!
John Davidson Rockefeller was the first billionaire in the world to exceed 1 billion U.S. dollars. Of course, the U.S. dollar was very valuable at that time. The average wage of workers was between 200 and 400 U.S. dollars per year. Today, the average wage of workers is 12,000 U.S. dollars per year. Between US$-24,000.
In other words, the U.S. dollar was worth 60 times what it is now. In other words, John Davidson Rockefeller's US$1 billion is now US$60 billion! But Chronos Li's wealth is US$120 billion, twice his! This is simply unimaginable!
"
The GDP of various countries around the world has been released one after another.
At this time, someone discovered that Li Zetian's wealth could actually rank 17th in the world!
Ranking 17th in terms of GDP is India~~Nicaea, with a GDP of US$114 billion; ranking 16th is Iran, with a GDP of US$143 billion. At this time, China's GDP is only US$282 billion, while the GDP of the United States is US$3,345 billion!
"Chronos Li is truly incredibly rich. Most countries in the world are not as rich as him!!"
People were so shocked that they could hardly speak, and many were so depressed that they almost vomited blood.
"My God, my wealth is not even one ten million of his!"
"Why are some people so rich but we are so poor? This world is unfair!!!"
"Yes, the gap between rich and poor is too big!"
"I really want to rob Chronos Li once!"
"Damn it, you're looking for death! Don't you know that the bodyguards around him are all very powerful special forces?"
"..."
While people were surprised by Li Zetian's wealth, their hatred of the rich also became more serious.
But at this time, the media exposed Li Zetian's charity work.
"After Chronos Li and his wife established the L.Y Foundation, they have been committed to charity every year. According to incomplete statistics, since the establishment of the L.Y Foundation, a total of more than 350 L.Y orphanages and more than 730 L.Y hope schools have been established. The specific list as follows:
1976:
Los Angeles L.Y Orphanage
New York L.Y Orphanage
London L.Y Orphanage
L.Y Orphanage, Kowloon, Hong Kong
Taipei L.Y Orphanage
Brasilia L.Y Orphanage
Jakarta L.Y Orphanage
Cambodia L.Y Orphanage
Cape Town L.Y Orphanage
…
Los Angeles L.Y Hope School
L.Y Hope School, Kowloon, Hong Kong
…
…
1977:

1978:

1982:

"
As soon as the list came out, everyone was shocked when they saw the rows of names.
"Love Chronos Li, a real man, a real philanthropist, he has donated and built so many orphanages and schools, he deserves respect!!!"
"If you don't know it, it turns out that Chronos Li is such a man with a heart full of great love. He uses his actions to explain what charity is!"
"I live in the Kowloon District of Hong Kong. There is an L.Y Orphanage and L.Y Hope School nearby. In Jin Yong's writing, 'The great chivalrous person serves the country and the people.' Chronos Li truly interprets the word 'chivalry' and I admire him. !!!”
"I have always regarded Chronos Li as my idol. Now that I see this list, as his fan, I have no shame!!!"
"Oh, how much money it costs to build so many orphanages and schools! Chronos Li's righteous deeds will be remembered forever!"
"Take it from the people, use it for the people, great love knows no bounds!"
"It's really shocking to see so many orphanages and schools. No one can compare to this!"
"Chronos Li is really spending money randomly. Can he be like other rich people who 'save money' and spend their money all over the world to buy houses, sports cars, yachts and planes!!!"
"As a professional hater of rich people, I have to explain myself: Chronos Li, you have donated to so many orphanages and schools, aren't you afraid of living a long life?!"
"I'll go, this rich man really can't be criticized. Go and criticize the next one! Who is second on the Forbes Rich List?"
"Looks like a little RB?"
"Spray him to death!!!"
