Chapter 81, The Richest Man in the World (First Order 120) Time always passes quickly. When Jiang Hao returned to Yanjing for school, it was already mid-March 2015. In March, the temperature in Yanjing City began to rise. The sandstorms in the north moved eastward and southward along with the cold high pressure behind the Mongolian cyclone. Yanjing City began to be shrouded in thick sandstorms. The sky was gloomy and seemed very depressing. Although this is the second time that the reborn Jiang Hao has spent 2015, this 2015 is completely different from the 2015 he was familiar with in his previous life, and his own life has completely changed. In his previous life, until his rebirth, Jiang Hao never had the courage to step into a Michelin restaurant. In this life, he dressed casually, sat naturally in a private restaurant, and naturally enjoyed the service provided by well-dressed and good-looking waiters. When he first had money, Jiang Hao felt embarrassed about the service provided by waiters. Jiang Hao took a sip of coffee, and the security guard whispered in Jiang Hao's ear that Zhou Tao had arrived. Jiang Hao nodded to show that he understood. When his old friend Zhou Tao appeared at the entrance of the restaurant, Jiang Hao smiled and joked, "Oh, the future richest man in the world is here."
While enjoying the waiter's respect, Zhou Tao walked towards Jiang Hao with a pout in dissatisfaction. The new "Forbes Fortune" has been released. It not only announced the rich list of the previous year, but also wrote a special wealth report for Pinduoduo, the current hot, newest and largest multinational company. This wealth report analyzes: When Pinduoduo goes public, it will reshuffle the world's richest list, and Pinduoduo's CEO Zhou Tao will have the opportunity to challenge the throne of "the world's richest man." While this Forbes Fortune report had a well-reasoned analysis of Zhou Tao's net worth, it was very vague in saying that Zhou Tao "has a chance to become" the world's richest man, but it did not accurately say that Zhou Tao would become the "richest man." Because the person ahead of Zhou Tao will be Pinduoduo's largest shareholder - Jiang Hao, Zhou Tao only has a "chance to make a breakthrough", and the real world's richest man will be Jiang Hao. However, Forbes Wealth did not mention Jiang Hao, because with his identity as "the man behind the Wall Street vicious woman", Forbes Wealth dare not and will not hype Jiang Hao. Moreover, there is a special "JJ (Jiang Hao, Jiang Yiran) Global Media Development Fund" on Wall Street. Forbes Fortune has received funding from this fund, so of course it cannot casually hype up its own "sponsor". Therefore, Zhou Tao is now at the center of world public opinion. Any news about him on the Internet is a hot search, and some female stars can change their fate as long as they meet him. This guy has become so picky that he won't sleep with famous, popular female stars. He only sleeps with newly debuted, good-looking female internet celebrities. At the same time, Pinduoduo has leveraged the public opinion of the "world's richest man" to once again expand rapidly and crazily around the world. Now, as long as there is Internet in the world, there is Pinduoduo, regardless of whether express delivery can be delivered or not. "My big boss, I realized that I have been your employee all my life. You are just a pure old bastard who pushed me out to be your shield." Zhou Tao complained to Jiang Hao after sitting down. While Zhou Tao is enjoying the glory brought by being the “richest man”, he is also enjoying the troubles brought by being the “richest man”: He himself had already been entangled by many women, and there were even some women he couldn't get rid of. It was only when he asked Jiang Hao to help him deal with them. All kinds of poor relatives at home appeared out of nowhere; His parents originally planned to divorce, but now they have no intention of arguing or divorcing because all their attention is attracted to Zhou Tao's sister. Zhou Tao's sister is completely ruined. She is surrounded by a group of yellow-haired boys all the time. A few days ago, she went to Macau to gamble. The money she lost in one night made her appear in the news for several days in a row. Zhou Tao took a sip of coffee and continued to complain to Jiang Hao: "Fuck, people outside are bragging that I am the "richest man". If I really am the richest man, then that's fine!" "But my title of 'richest man' is complete bullshit! I'd be lucky if I could at best make it into the top five of the Forbes Global Rich List!" "That damn media is really resourceful. They made me the 'world's richest man' with just a 'chance to impact'!" Jiang Hao clearly has more shares in Pinduoduo than Zhou Tao. Even if Pinduoduo's IPO is hyped up to exceed one trillion US dollars, Zhou Tao can only be the "second richest man" at most, not the "world's richest man"! Moreover, even if Pinduoduo is not counted, Jiang Hao owns 80% of the shares of "HY Standard Rating" and 80% of the shares of "JJ Capital". With Jiang Yiran's various means and relying on these two companies on Wall Street, Jiang Yiran was able to sit in the non-public and top-secret small conference room of the Federal Reserve!
This is impossible to estimate or price! Indeed, before meeting Jiang Hao, Zhou Tao admitted that he also had a kind of vanity of being the "world's richest man". But after meeting the real "world's richest man" Jiang Hao, and seeing Jiang Hao's indifferent, quiet life that was not ruined by wealth, Zhou Tao felt that his title of "world's richest man" was a joke. At this moment, Zhou Tao admired Jiang Hao very much. He finally understood why Jiang Yiran, the shrewd "Eastern Vicious Woman of Wall Street", always followed Jiang Hao like a fool when she met him. The arrogant "rich girl" Song Wanming knew that Jiang Hao had a "mistress", but she still exerted her charm on Jiang Hao like a "love-brained girl". Jiang Hao was able to stick to himself despite such wealth, power and status. Zhou Tao really thought Jiang Hao was amazing and worthy of admiration. Zhou Tao is very grateful and respectful to Jiang Hao for being able to get to where he is today. Zhou Tao is surrounded by a bunch of "little brothers" who always encourage him from time to time that "a real man cannot be under someone else for long". But Zhou Tao never thought of betraying Jiang Hao. On the contrary, he was afraid that Jiang Hao would abandon him. But as a "worker", you must let your "boss" know how difficult it is for you, otherwise the "boss" will think that you can easily follow the "boss" to become the "second richest person in the world". You need to let the "boss" see your efforts and let the "boss" know that you are acting as a shield for the "boss"! That's why Zhou Tao came to complain to his "boss" Jiang Hao. He was really afraid that Jiang Hao would abandon him. Facing Zhou Tao's complaints, Jiang Hao smiled and said, "Do you still remember Wang Peng?" "Remember! My roommate in college was your driver at first, and now he's doing group buying at Pinduoduo!" Zhou Tao frowned, realizing something was wrong, and replied. Jiang Hao smiled and nodded, then said, "He came to me to report on his work a few days ago. We had a meal together and talked for quite a long time!" "Brother, brother, dear brother, please stop talking! I'm actually fine now!" Zhou Tao understood without Jiang Hao explaining it clearly. What Jiang Hao meant was that if he, Zhou Tao, didn't like his current position, there were other people who dreamed of moving up to it. "Thanks for your hard work!" In the restaurant, Jiang Hao didn't say anything else. He smiled and gave Zhou Tao the fattest piece of steak. Jiang Hao is also very amazed that Zhou Tao has achieved the level he has today. He is very grateful to him and recognizes his achievements. If Jiang Hao himself were the CEO of Pinduoduo, Jiang Hao does not think he would be able to achieve the level he has today. So in fact there was no need for Zhou Tao to complain to Jiang Hao. Jiang Hao was very grateful to Zhou Tao. (End of this chapter)
