We're building a super chaebol in Hong Kong

Hearing Chen Zhibai's words, everyone's eyes lit up; the list was finally about to be revealed.

The venue instantly erupted in enthusiastic applause. Thousands of people clapped simultaneously, the thunderous sound echoing in the opera house.

Su Cheng sat in the first row of the guest seating, smiling and clapping along.

This time, he didn't plan to go on stage. He had already spoken to Chen Zhibai before the press conference started.

After all, he was number one on the list, and there was no way to keep a low profile. If he went on stage again, it would be too high-profile.

Right now, it was a live television broadcast. With Jia Yi Television's current viewership, at least millions of viewers were watching.

At this time, it was just past eight o'clock; everyone had just finished dinner, and the whole family was sitting in front of the television, chatting and watching TV.

Therefore, this time slot was considered the golden hour of golden hours.

Millions of people were already the lowest estimated figure.

Now, Jia Yi Television could be watched not only in Hong Kong and Macau, but also in most parts of Southeast Asia, as long as people wanted to watch it.

Places like Taiwan and Singapore had already approved Jia Yi Television for local rebroadcasting.

Moreover, in this era, there was little entertainment. In the evenings, apart from young people, few people would go out.

The elderly and children at home, or young people who didn't go out to play, could only watch television.

Therefore, there were a lot of television viewers in this era.

Unlike the world before Su Cheng's transmigration, regardless of whether they were elderly, children, or young people, they basically held a mobile phone at night to browse short videos, play games, socialize, etc. As for people watching television, there were very few.

This was also why Su Cheng wanted to take over a television station.

If it were the 21st century, Su Cheng would have no interest in investing in a television station.

Although this time, only a Hong Kong Rich List was being released, and it had nothing to do with other regions.

However, viewers in other regions were actually very curious about this thing.

Jia Yi Television's current overseas viewers were mainly Chinese. There were very few foreign viewers. Even those Southeast Asian natives didn't have many, after all, there weren't many foreigners who could understand Chinese in this era.

And Jia Yi Television itself was mainly in Chinese. Those truly foreign people were naturally not the target audience.

The Rich List, this thing that had never appeared before, was a world first, and had already attracted the attention of many overseas Chinese.

For them, whether it was Hong Kong's rich or their local rich, they were all rich people anyway. They were just watching the excitement, waiting for something to chat about tomorrow.

As soon as Chen Zhibai's voice fell, Governor MacLehose also straightened his attire, then stood up and strode towards the stage.

What was particularly interesting was that Chen Zhibai deliberately had the rankings start scrolling from 100th place. The higher the ranking, the later it would appear.

"NO.100: Liang Jiaqiang, Taisheng Group, HK$218.6 million."

"NO.99: Zhang Lihua, Changyuan Development Co., Ltd., HK$221.8 million."

"NO.98: Stokes, Asia-Pacific Group, HK$222.3 million."

… …

Each name was accompanied by a photo, so that everyone could not only see the name, but also clearly see what the person looked like.

The guest seating was in the best position in the entire opera house, and these rich people could see clearly.

Because the scrolling speed was relatively slow, and with such a large screen, only four rich people appeared at a time, even the last row of the opera house could see clearly.

At this time, all the rich people were looking for their names on the list. After finding their names, they began to look for the rankings of the rich people they were familiar with.

"General Manager Liang, congratulations, you are ranked 100th!"

"Alas, I can only be ranked 100th. I thought I could at least be ranked around 80th or 90th. It seems that there are more rich people in Hong Kong than I thought!"

"That's good. If you had less, you wouldn't be on the list. You should be happy."

"That's right. 100th place may not be much less than me. It seems that I have to work hard to make money this year, otherwise I will fall off the list next year. As for you, I really envy you. You are actually ranked 93rd, a full 7 places higher than me."

"I didn't expect that I would be ranked 91st. That foreign devil from Asia-Pacific Group is actually ranked lower than me, haha!"

"Hey, I'm actually in 74th place."

"Ah, I'm only ranked 68th, lower than I thought!"

"I didn't expect that General Manager Chen of West Asia Group would be ranked 59th. I usually see him so low-key, but his assets are actually so much more than mine. It's too unexpected."

"General Manager Li of He Tong Company is even more low-key. I usually thought that his assets were at most tens of millions, but I didn't expect that his assets would actually reach 432.6 million. It seems that in addition to the industries in Hong Kong, there are many overseas assets that we usually don't know about!"

"Wang Zhiye of Changsheng Group and I are actually 12 places apart? Obviously, our group's turnover is higher than that of their Changsheng Group. Could it be that he has hidden industries that I don't know about?"

… …

As the list scrolled, the rich people at the scene were both happy and sad. They carefully watched the list and had intense discussions with the rich people around them.

At this time, they could no longer remain quiet.

Even at the level of super-rich, most people still have a desire to compete.

Just like these rich people present, in fact, everyone hopes that their ranking can be higher than their commercial competitors.

However, being able to be on the list is already good. Everyone actually knows that some super-rich people who don't want to show their faces don't disclose their asset situation at all. Even if Oriental Daily News goes to investigate, they won't be able to find out anything.

If all the rich people's information is really dug out, even if most of them can be on the list, their ranking on the list will drop a lot. (End of this chapter)
