We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong
#522 - Oriental Fortune Magazine
After Governor Murray MacLehose announced the unveiling of the list, he quickly walked off the stage and returned to his seat.
On the Jade Television side, they had already received the list of the richest people from the Oriental Press Group in advance. Therefore, when Murray MacLehose announced the unveiling of the list, the television showed a clearer picture of the long list for the audience to see. Like the scene, it slowly scrolled, allowing everyone to see it more clearly.
The 100 richest people scrolled for nearly 5 minutes, the speed was neither fast nor very slow.
The famous tycoons of Hong Kong were basically on the list.
The audience in front of the TV was also watching and discussing.
In front of a grocery store in Tsim Sha Tsui, more than 20 people gathered here to watch TV.
The shopkeeper was very good at doing business. In order to gather popularity, he would move the TV outside the door every night for everyone to watch for free.
As a result, it naturally attracted many young people or middle-aged people who did not have TVs at home to gather here at night.
If you sit on other people's stools, you have to buy something in the grocery store, otherwise they will not be embarrassed to occupy the current place for nothing.
Therefore, basically everyone had various snacks and drinks on the table next to them.
Some people would buy a pack of cigarettes, or a bottle of beer and a pack of peanuts.
In short, this small act of goodwill also made the grocery store's business much better than the surrounding grocery stores.
At this time, these customers watched TV, ate snacks, drank beer and drinks, and discussed.
Everyone had at least heard of the top 20 or 30 richest people on the list, but many people had never heard of the richest people at the back of the list.
"I didn't expect Mr. Run Run Shaw of Shaw Brothers Film Company to not even be in the top 20. It's really unexpected."
"As expected, Mr. Li Zhao Ji and Mr. Zheng Yutong both entered the top ten."
"The Lawrence Kadoorie family of China Light and Power also entered the top 20. I didn't expect to make so much money by relying on the power company."
"The King of Shipping ranks second, as expected! He deserves to be the richest man in Hong Kong. If it weren't for the rise of Mr. Su Cheng, he should be at the top of the list now."
"I believe the asset data of other people, but I don't really believe the asset data of Mr. Su Cheng. He only has 22.685 billion Hong Kong dollars. It shouldn't be just that. The 21.769 billion Hong Kong dollars of the King of Shipping should still be believable."
"We also have no way of knowing whether his assets are real or not. After all, Su Cheng's companies are basically private companies, unlike the companies controlled by other rich people on the list, which are basically listed companies. These are easier to count, but Su Cheng's ranking first should not be disapproved by anyone. After all, even the world's mainstream media believe that he is already the richest man in the world, but I think his assets are definitely hidden."
"Yes, I would believe it even if his assets were 40 or 50 billion Hong Kong dollars."
"Everyone should know who the boss of the Oriental Press Group is, it's Su Cheng. He himself seems to be a very low-key person. I heard that several times the world's mainstream media asked him to interview him, he directly hid and refused to be interviewed. Obviously, Su Cheng should not want to fully disclose his wealth, but his popularity is so high, it would not be justified if he is not ranked first."
"That's right, who doesn't know that Su Cheng is the richest man in the world now, and this is just a mere Hong Kong rich list. The world is so big, there are plenty of rich people. Su Cheng can be called the recognized richest man in the world, it is impossible to have only a net worth of more than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars, and it is so close to the wealth of the second King of Shipping."
Everyone was talking about it. Many people obviously did not believe Su Cheng's assets, but they were more认可 of the overall ranking of the list.
After the list was scrolled, there was another burst of warm applause.
Hong Kong really has too many rich people.
The 100th place actually exceeded 200 million Hong Kong dollars. How many millionaires are there in total?
And in this era, the salary of the bottom class is only a few hundred Hong Kong dollars a day.
A small Hong Kong hides so many millionaires, and many people are people that everyone has never heard of. No one expected it.
The guests around Su Cheng congratulated him one after another. This time, Su Cheng's title of the richest man can be regarded as well-deserved.
Previously, it was just those media touting, and there was no authoritative data on the surface that Su Cheng was really the richest man in Hong Kong and even the richest man in the world.
Now, although this list cannot show that Su Cheng is the richest man in the world, at least the richest man in Hong Kong is him.
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!
"At the end of the press conference, I would also like to announce something to you. The detailed list of our Oriental Hong Kong Top 100 Rich List will be published in "Oriental Fortune" so that everyone can read it at any time. The price is not expensive, only 2 Hong Kong dollars. Welcome everyone to buy it. Finally, I wish you all a wonderful night, goodbye!" Chen Zhibai finally came to the stage to announce the end of the press conference.
This rich list press conference ended in just one hour.
But its influence is growing.
The next morning, an "Oriental Fortune" magazine also appeared in newspaper stalls and bookstores in Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore and other places for sale.
In this "Oriental Fortune", there is not only the Oriental Hong Kong Rich List Top 100, but also various business anecdotes. After all, it is impossible to create a magazine based on a single ranking list.
"Oriental Fortune" was already planning when the Oriental Press Group was preparing the Hong Kong Rich List.
Creating a rich list, popularity is just one of them, maximizing profits is the work of their company.
After all, the Oriental Press Group is not a charity company, it is mainly to make money.
Therefore, when they contacted these rich people during the investigation, they also pulled a lot of advertising for the "Oriental Fortune" magazine.
These advertisements will be implanted in "Oriental Fortune", or appear in the form of soft articles, or directly change to graphic advertisements.
In short, although everyone is not sure how much the sales of this "Oriental Fortune" magazine can be, many bosses are very generous because they are on the list, and the advertising sponsorship even exceeds 10 million Hong Kong dollars.
Don't look at 10 million Hong Kong dollars as not much, in fact, in the paper media industry in this era, it is already relatively powerful.
