Hello 1983 - Chapter 1106
Chapter 1106 is really satisfying (ask for the last monthly pass)
Forbes magazine is published every two weeks. The cover of the new issue is of course Liu Qingshan’s young face.
And this issue of the magazine has also attracted widespread attention, and the sales volume has skyrocketed.
For a long time, Fortune magazine has been overwhelming Forbes in terms of sales. As a result, Forbes has successfully overtaken all of this.
The main reason is that this interview with Mr. Mountain has aroused widespread attention and discussion in the society, and it is very topical.
There is more than one focus of discussion. First of all, when interviewing Liu Qingshan, Liu Qingshan proposed the development and changes of the rich in the future.
He believes that emerging technologies will create a group of emerging rich people, among which the Internet field has the most impact.
This point of view makes those traditional industrial and resource rich people very dissatisfied.
For example, the successor of Wal-Mart said when accepting reporters: Industry is king, and the Internet bubble will burst one day.
The new Mr. Walton turned to criticize Liu Qingshan: the Wal-Mart supermarket chain has provided millions of jobs, and this is the real contribution.
The reason why this Mr. Walton jumped out was because he felt the pressure and sense of urgency, because Liu Qingshan’s wealth is only a few billion less than him, and he may catch up with him or even surpass him at any time.
Liu Qingshan is not interested in arguing with the other party. He also likes industry, and in his industry, the proportion is also larger.
He was just expounding on a trend of future development. There is indeed a relatively serious bubble in the Internet, but when the bubble bursts, the remaining Internet companies are all real powerhouses.
Facts will prove everything, and talking about it is meaningless.
On the contrary, when interviewed by reporters, Liu Qingshan gave a high evaluation of Wal-Mart Superstores for providing a large number of job opportunities.
Another focus of debate is around doing charity.
Although in the interview with Liu Qingshan, he did not explicitly criticize those practices of seeking fame, but it hurt some people’s nerves, so they couldn’t help jumping out to refute Liu Qingshan’s point of view.
Mr. Soros, who is half-angel and half-devil, publicly ridiculed Liu Qingshan as a miser.
Many celebrities also joined in and stood up for Soros one after another.
Liu Qingshan couldn’t bear this matter, so he said in an interview with reporters: Mr. Soros is a financial investor on Wall Street, and of course it is not his strong point to engage in the real economy.
What Soros did was just transfer other people’s wealth to himself, which has no meaning to society. No matter how much he donates to charity, he can’t make up for his own mistakes.
After hearing this comment, Soros certainly couldn’t bear it.
In fact, he has been in high spirits for the past two years. Last year, his Quantum Fund spent 10 billion US dollars to short the British pound.
The British government mobilized 30 billion U.S. dollars, but in the end it failed miserably and was forced to withdraw from the European monetary system.
Soros became famous in the first battle, and he also gained both fame and fortune. The profit from this campaign exceeded one billion US dollars.
The most important thing is that he established his reputation as a Wall Street vulture. With his own strength, he even defeated a country in the financial field, and was praised by many fans.
This is how in the next few years, Soros’s team frequently extended its black hands to other countries, creating the economic crisis in Southeast Asia.
Soros, who was in the limelight, also immediately made his voice in the newspapers to fight back against Liu Qingshan: “Finance is a war without gunpowder, can Mr. Mountain dare to fight?”
This is the rhythm of a blatant fight. Liu Qingshan knows that he is being targeted by Soros, the wolf of Wall Street.
Also, Liu Qingshan has always wanted to warn Soros, lest he bite people everywhere.
So he also publicly expressed his attitude, a very simple sentence: stay with me to the end.
So far, the tension between the two has been completely settled, and sooner or later there will be a big battle.
And Liu Qingshan knows Soros’s next plan, the battlefield must be in East Asia, or to be precise, Hong Kong Island.
Although the air-to-air battle with Soros was full of turmoil, it will take time for the battle to kick off. Both sides are still silently accumulating strength.
In Liu Qingshan’s interview, what attracted the most attention was the argument about his wealth code, which is obviously a bit incompatible with the mainstream of the Western world.
Liu Qingshan’s idea of common prosperity has been criticized by many economic experts, and has even evolved into a big discussion of different social systems.
Every time Liu Qingshan came to the North American continent, he would stir up the situation, and this time the movement was even bigger.
He is also bad enough, after detonating this bomb, he retreated quietly.
You keep arguing, I have to get down to business, I don’t have time to play tricks with you.
Liu Qingshan took people out of the United States, took a plane, and returned to Hong Kong Island.
Liu Qingshan has never forgotten that Jia Kui had an accident this year. Although he has reminded Jia Kui’s band that they are not allowed to perform in the island country, Liu Qingshan is still not at ease.
Hong Kong Island is of course still prosperous. This year is already 1993, and in less than four years, it will return to the embrace of the motherland.
Those who should have run away have already run away, and their assets have long been taken over cheaply, such as Li Fuhao, who took advantage of it back then.
In this regard, I have to admire Li Fuhao’s vision, which is indeed unique. Others are frightened and leave in a hurry, worried that the sky will change and they will be liquidated.
However, he took advantage of the situation and took a crucial step on the road to becoming the richest man on Hong Kong Island and the richest Chinese.
But now that Liu Qingshan is born, it may be difficult for the richest man Li to become the richest man in the Chinese.
Because in the past few years, Liu Qingshan’s Longteng International Trading Company also acquired the assets of those who left.
Liu Qingshan is quite happy to be a recruiter. He has taken over foreign-funded enterprises and made a lot of money back then, so he has a fine tradition in this regard.
Liu Qingshan led Li Tieniu, Li Tie and his wife, and then the little six sons, and a few people got off the plane.
I wanted to go to Longteng Company first without making a sound, but as soon as I got out of the airport, I saw Boss Huo and others standing there in unison to welcome them.
“Brother Qingshan!” Boss Huo also found Liu Qingshan and yelled.
They are all the children of some of the most popular big families on Hong Kong Island, so reporters have long noticed Boss Huo and others.
At first, I thought that some important person from China had come, but after listening to Boss Huo’s yelling, I finally knew the reason.
The reporters couldn’t help but secretly rejoice, Mr. Mountain came to Hong Kong, so they must interview this darling of the media.
“Brother Qingshan, congratulations, you are on the Forbes list!” Boss Huo smiled and leaned forward, hugging Liu Qingshan.
“Same joy, same joy.” Liu Qingshan looked at the ranking, and Boss Huo was also on the list, but the ranking is more than two hundred, which is actually pretty good.
Boss Huo waved his hand: “I’m not interested in that, people only pay attention to the top ten.”
This is why Prince Hamed sued Forbes magazine. The top 20 and top 10 received very different attention.
Others also greeted Liu Qingshan, and Pan Mingpai said with a smile: “Qingshan, you don’t pay attention, just pat your **** and run away after messing with you. The country of America is still noisy.”
Everyone laughed in unison. In terms of influence, they are limited to Hong Kong Island, while Liu Qingshan has already looked at the world, which is several grades behind.
Fortunately, we are all on the same boat, so there is no need to be envious or jealous.
The reporters waited for a long time, and finally surrounded them. Liu Qingshan simply dealt with it a few words, and then prepared to leave.
At this time, a reporter with a foreign face suddenly asked: “Mr. Mountain, you probably don’t know that the Kadoorie family and the Sassoon family have joined forces with several other families to sue you in court.”
Liu Qingshan blinked, then shook his head with a smile: “I don’t seem to have received a summons from the court.”
“It is a lawsuit submitted to the Hong Kong Island government. You used disgraceful means to obtain several billions of dollars in property from several families. Don’t you know it yourself?”
The foreign reporter said honestly, obviously, his position was on the side of his compatriots.
The smile on Liu Qingshan’s face disappeared instantly, and his face became extremely serious: “You are talking about the gentlemen of Edward Sassoon, right? They still have the face to go to court to sue me?”
“Those gentlemen have no contract spirit at all. When they saw that the business was lost, they clamored to quit. I complied with their request.”
“But now that the business is making money again, it starts biting people like a mad dog. Please tell them that I, Liu Qingshan, will accompany you to the end!”
Boss Huo and others are also witnesses, and they are also talking a lot, criticizing Edward and others.
The reporters were even happier when they heard it: Mr. Mountain is indeed a good friend of the media, and he brought such big news just after getting off the plane.
So he roared, surrounded Liu Qingshan, and started the interview.
Liu Qingshan also told the truth, telling the story of what happened at that time, without embellishing the slightest bit.
The reporters basically understood that those foreign families didn’t make sense at all.
Although this incident is quite strange, logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with Liu Qingshan. It was Edward and those guys who gave up on their own foolishly.
Reporters are also happy to hear this. The Chinese have always dared not speak out against the foreign families entrenched in Hong Kong Island, mainly because they cannot offend them.
Now that Liu Qingshan has plundered billions of dollars of their assets at once, it is really satisfying.
Moreover, Hong Kong Island is well-informed. The reporters have long known the situation of the Forbes rich list. Are the top rich men afraid of going to court with you?
A reporter excitedly handed the microphone to Liu Qingshan: “Mr. Liu, what are you going to do about the provocations of those families? Can you tell us your thoughts?”
Liu Qingshan nodded solemnly: “Of course I will stay with you to the end, but what I want to say most is that today’s Hong Kong Island is about to usher in the reunification. The era of those foreigners dictating here is gone forever!”
There was a burst of warm applause, and Liu Qingshan’s speech also represented the aspirations of all Chinese.
But at this moment, several police officers separated from the crowd and walked in, and came straight to Liu Qingshan. A foreigner in police uniform was at the front:
“Mr. Mountain, I am Superintendent Johnson. On behalf of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of Hong Kong Island, I submit a summons to you. You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will become evidence in court.”
Liu Qingshan couldn’t help blinking: It’s really fast enough, you get in the police car as soon as you get off the plane, this kind of treatment doesn’t seem to be good?
