Rebirth: Super Banking System

Chapter 2069: Chapter 1891: Forbes Releases 2009 Rankings

Huaxia netizens support Tang Qing.

First.

It’s beneficial for the enterprise.

Second.

Face-saving.

The former has little to do with ordinary people.

The latter is the main reason.

Look.

Hummingbird goes abroad, uses foreign money, participates in the groundbreaking ceremony, the lowest position is a head of a department, usually attended by presidents, vice presidents personally, accompanied by a large group of cabinet officials.

Very face-saving.

…

Beijing.

Jingdong Headquarters.

“Sigh!”

Liu Dong sighed. He could only admire Tang Qing’s methods. At the beginning of last year, he thought Hummingbird spreading across Huaxia in two years would already be impressive.

Who would have thought.

It spread in one year.

The second year, directly expanded to thirty-nine countries, adding Huaxia, totaling forty countries. At the pace of project construction, by the end of this year, a huge multinational Hummingbird Network will take shape.

These countries.

Huaxia.

1.3 billion.

India.

1.2… Um! Let’s round it off.

Nigeria.

Pakistan.

Brazil.

…

These developing countries have already occupied half of the world’s population, meaning Tang Qing’s Hummingbird, by the end of the year, will have the massive capacity to serve half the global population.

Of course.

Initially, there won’t be so many customers.

But.

Once it grows, it will be a terrifying existence.

Platform.

Self-operated.

Logistics.

Once these three aspects are established, supporting and complementing each other, what kind of energy will burst forth? Liu Dong couldn’t figure it out, but even though he was envious, he also knew Jingdong simply couldn’t participate.

It’s not that they’re excluded.

It’s that they can’t.

For example.

Even if Jingdong had money, Tang Qing would welcome them, but why would the various countries’ partners want Jingdong to hold the self-operated category? The complexity in network technology between platform and self-operation is not high.

Thus.

This has resulted in the current three-party compromise situation.

Hummingbird.

Tang Qing holds the shares.

Platform.

Ma Yun holds the shares.

Self-operated.

Various partners hold the shares. Under such a setup, the sustainable development of the entire interest group is ensured. What would happen if a brand like Jingdong tried to enter? There’s no way, no basis for cooperation.

Fortunately.

Tang Qing doesn’t do self-operation domestically.

Otherwise.

Jingdong would cry. Jingdong is quite busy now. Because of Hummingbird’s emergence, many see an opportunity and want to challenge Jingdong’s position, but he is confident in breaking through the siege.

After all.

Jingdong now leans against a big tree.

In China.

Since Ali and Tang Qing aren’t doing self-operation, he’s not afraid, as for Penguin, well, now they’re brothers in the same trench, ERV simultaneously controls over forty percent of Penguin and Jingdong’s stocks.

Therefore.

He’s not worried.

“Sigh!”

“I’m so stuck.”

At this moment, the webpage refreshed, Liu Dong looked, and bitterly smiled.

’On the morning of the 12th local time in the United States, Forbes Magazine released the “Global Billionaires List for 2009,” among which Tang Qing, with a net worth of 319 billion dollars, ranked second in the world.’

“Gulp!”

Liu Dong’s throat moved slightly.

Indeed.

Yet another number that can only be admired and not reached, how much is Jingdong’s market value? It’s not even close to a fraction of Tang Qing’s net worth, truly without comparison, there’s no Shanghai.

“Reality!”

“As cruel as ever!”

…

Outside.

As soon as the news came out, it was buzzing.

United States.

“It’s that Tang Second again.”

“Annoying.”

“Wasn’t this expected? What’s there to be surprised at? The only consolation is that the first place is always an American, Bill Gates and Warren Buffett are so weak, they can’t get up.”

“Exactly.”

“They’re soft.”

“Their era is over.”

“Yeah.”

“Facing the same financial crisis, Bill Gates and Warren Buffett’s net worth shrank drastically, one lost more than a hundred billion dollars, the other lost more than two hundred billion dollars, too damn fragile.”

“To be fair, both are old.”

“Sigh!”

“The curtain of an era.”

“Amen.”

“…”

They’re not dead.

“Actually.”

“We should be glad, because it shows the world is still full of miracles and opportunities, and ordinary people can also become giants, like Tang Qing, ERV, they’re proving this.”

“Agree.”

“We should be glad.”

“Haha.”

“If Tang Qing were number one, would you still be this happy?”

“Uh!”

“It doesn’t matter, as long as the first place is an American, America is the big boss, the forever big boss, as long as ERV is around, Tang Qing will have to be content at second place!”

“…”

The proud Americans, foolishly celebrating.

No matter what.

The man at the top is American, and that’s enough, just a bit frustrated, everyone shrank in the financial crisis, and so did ERV’s wealth, but Tang Qing’s wealth is very stable.

Of course.

The reason is simple, the magazine detailed it.

First.

The business expansion is fast, the current business, and the emergence of potential new businesses lead to positive market expectations, such as today’s headlines, and smart space, as well as holographic projection…

Second.

Newly growing enterprises.

Like Hummingbird.

Setting the stock issuance price during the last fundraising, adding some premium, its market value won’t be less than 30 billion dollars. There’s also Jinghua Real Estate, which went public last October, and its stock price keeps rising.

After reading.

Nothing but envy.

Still envy.

Jealousy?

No.

The gap is too big to generate feelings of jealousy.

…

Huaxia.

“Impressive!”

“Three hundred billion dollars, damn, look at this year’s list, it’s directly the sum of the net worth from third to tenth place, on the Huaxia list, it’s probably the combined net worth of the top seventy or eighty.”

“Imposing!”

“I concede.”

“Again the top in the country.”

“Tang Qing: How boring!”

“Nationwide, please donate two thousand RMB each to me so I can surpass Tang Qing, account: XXXX. Will return it afterwards, it’s time to harness the power of the masses, send me directly to first place.”

“Caught a case of illegal fundraising!”

“Scary, nationwide, two thousand each, only then can surpass Tang Qing.”

“Out of words!”

“+1.”

“+1.”

“…”

Compared to last time, the reaction isn’t as big, because Tang Qing’s ranking hasn’t changed, still second, total assets haven’t changed much either, still over 2 trillion RMB.

Um!

Alright.

Compared to last time, except there’s one more Jack Ma.

However.

At the 2 trillion scale, one Jack Ma is obviously rounded off, everyone is waiting for Tang Qing to surpass the next hurdle — 3 trillion RMB. Very much looking forward to it.

trillion.

…

trillion.

…

trillion.

…

Um!

The more they think.

On one side it feels impossible, on another it feels possible, they’re shocked by this thought, if reaching 6 trillion RMB, he could directly become world number one.

Seems like… that’s good too.

Yeah.

Can be.

Thus.

A post named “Rushing to 6 Trillion” quickly became popular online. They’re not expecting Tang Qing to have a certain amount of money, but eagerly want to see him ascend the throne of world’s richest.

First.

Of course, it’s great for Huaxia.
