We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

"So fast?" Su Cheng was a little surprised.

The Xiangjiang Rich List had only been released for a few days, and he didn't expect that someone in the beautiful country was already eyeing it. Sure enough, there was no shortage of knowledgeable people anywhere.

"Yes, boss. It just so happened that one of our survey team members received an invitation from them, hoping to join them. Otherwise, we wouldn't have known about this. Coincidentally, this survey team member was quite famous in the industry before joining our Oriental Press Corporation's beautiful country branch. It was precisely because of his talent that he received the invitation. However, the other party doesn't know that we have already established a survey team in the beautiful country," Chen Zhibai replied.

"What company is it?" Surprised as he was, Su Cheng continued to ask, wanting to see if it was some big enterprise.

If this company had strong strength in the beautiful country, then Oriental Press Corporation would really have a strong competitor.

"It seems to be called Forbes Magazine Company. The company has a bit of history, but its strength isn't strong. Their company's reputation isn't high in the beautiful country, and their monthly magazine sales are also quite average," Chen Zhibai replied.

"So it's them!"

That's not surprising.

"Boss, have you heard of this company? According to our employee, Forbes Magazine Company has decided to invest all of the company's resources into creating a rich list this time. To this end, they have promised many benefits to our employee, hoping to persuade him to join Forbes Magazine Company. However, our employee doesn't think highly of this company, so he wasn't tempted by the good conditions they offered." This surprised Chen Zhibai.

According to the information he received from the beautiful country, although Forbes Magazine Company has been around for several decades, it is not considered a mainstream media enterprise, even in the beautiful country. How did the boss know about it?

If the people from the branch hadn't reported it to him, he wouldn't have known about it at all.

"Didn't I just go to the beautiful country a few months ago? When I was in New York, I happened to have heard of this company. I often read newspapers and magazines there, and one day the hotel sent me a copy of 'Forbes Magazine' to my room," Su Cheng lied with a smile.

He couldn't possibly say that he knew about this company from another world!

"No wonder," Chen Zhibai suddenly understood.

Su Cheng's trip to the beautiful country a few months ago was well-known in Xiangjiang.

After all, he did several big things in the beautiful country in just one month. These things were spread to ordinary people through the media. As the head of Oriental Press Corporation, Chen Zhibai had more information than ordinary people, so he naturally knew at that time that Su Cheng had stayed in New York for quite a while.

"Don't underestimate this company just because they don't seem strong. As far as I know, they have built up a lot of connections in the beautiful country over the past few decades, especially the former head of the company, who maintains good relationships with the heads of several consortia. New York is also an international metropolis with a very concentrated number of wealthy people. If they get involved in the rich list, their advantages are no less than ours," Su Cheng said seriously.

If it weren't for Forbes, he wouldn't have been able to create the Oriental Rich List.

Therefore, Su Cheng also knew how strong Forbes's global reputation was in his previous life, relying on this ranking thing.

However, according to the normal historical development, Forbes didn't launch the Forbes Rich List for the first time until 1982, and it had a huge impact worldwide.

The rich list thing, at most, only needs about a year of preparation for the investigation, after all, the rich list is annual.

Therefore, the time when Forbes started to create the rich list should also be pushed forward by one year, to 1981.

And now, it's only 1979, two years before they just started to create the rich list.

After all, in Chen Zhibai's view, Forbes Magazine Company was just a magazine company with a market value of several million US dollars. If based on market value, Forbes Magazine Company seemed like an insignificant small company.

It was too difficult for this kind of small company to create a rich list, in Chen Zhibai's view.

But now, after hearing Su Cheng's words, Chen Zhibai began to take it seriously.

After all, although they have already established a survey team to fully prepare for the beautiful country's rich list, what if the other party comes up with it in advance?

Although Oriental Press Corporation has already taken the lead in creating a rich list in the world, it is only a rich list in a small place like Xiangjiang, and no matter how big the influence is, there is a limit.

It's different to create the beautiful country's rich list.

As the world's largest economy, the beautiful country has many wealthy people and the greatest influence.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ release!

If Forbes takes the lead in creating a rich list in the beautiful country, then the influence will definitely exceed the second company that produces the beautiful country's rich list.

"Although it seems that the other party is indeed not strong at present, the beautiful country is ultimately their territory, with local advantages. Even if we despise the enemy strategically, we must also value the enemy tactically. Now your advantage is that your strength in terms of funds is stronger, you are prepared earlier, and you are more experienced, but the other party may also change their unfavorable situation, for example, if they lack funds, they may raise funds, so we will not have an advantage in terms of funds.

But at least for now, they should not have the idea of raising funds temporarily, and it is not clear in the future. You have to be prepared to speed up the production of the rich list there. I will let Wu Ge cooperate with you, and find someone to keep an eye on Forbes Magazine Company. If there is any progress there, I will tell you immediately. In addition, I also have some connections in the beautiful country, and these connections can be used by you at that time," Su Cheng said seriously.

If other unknown small companies were to get involved, Su Cheng would not worry at all, but with Forbes entering the market, Su Cheng was really a little worried that Oriental Press Corporation would fall behind.

After all, the Forbes Magazine Company of his previous life had proved itself, and it was they who created the rich list, which enhanced the influence of the wealthy, and made their company famous all over the world.

"Okay, boss, I know. In addition, I would like to ask the boss for advice. Although we have released a rich list in Xiangjiang, Xiangjiang is ultimately just a small place, and the boss, your influence here is also large enough, so that our rich list can be produced so quickly. Although we have also accumulated some experience in this process, it is not much. The beautiful country is different. The environment there is more complicated and there are more consortia, so what should we do there to be more advantageous?" Chen Zhibai humbly asked for advice.

Having had many contacts with Su Cheng, Chen Zhibai knew that his new boss really had a lot of knowledge. Asking him for advice would definitely allow him to learn a lot of knowledge, and it would also play a big role in his next layout.
