Chapter 1557 Fanatical fans

The next day, early in the morning, Fang Chen set off for New York.

He was already prepared for Bill Gates to become angry and ignore him, but what he didn't expect was that Bill Gates was so shameless that he got into the "Qingtian" uninvited.

But what makes Fang Chen even more speechless is that Bill Gates came as soon as he came, and he didn't mean to kick him out, but why did Bill Gates make a bad face for him as soon as he came up?

He took the initiative to talk to him without saying a word.

Fang Chen was so angry that he rolled his eyes several times. Although he went a little too far yesterday, he was telling the truth after all.

Furthermore, if Bill Gates doesn't like me, then don't get into my plane. It's really a bit pretentious to get in without saying anything.

When I arrived at the New York Airport, looking at the huge crowds around me, even Fang Chen, who boasted of having seen countless big scenes, couldn't help but take a breath.

Although he had expected that there would be many people coming today, he never expected that there would be so many.

And he also noticed that in addition to a large number of media reporters with long guns and short guns, there were also a large number of ordinary people, who should be more accurately suspected of being "fans".

There were at least a thousand ordinary people, waving light signs with the word "Fang Chen" written on them, as well as a huge bust of Fang Chen, and shouting Fang Chen's name loudly.

This look, this formation is no different from fans picking up their idols at the airport.

To be honest, Fang Chen himself didn't know when he had such a large group of fans in the United States.

"Although in the United States, it is not strange to worship entrepreneurs and wealthy people, but to reach your level is probably unprecedented and unprecedented."

Looking at the enthusiastic expressions of the people below, as well as Fang Chen's light sign and huge bust, Bill Gates stood next to Fang Chen and couldn't help but said in amusement.

The history of the United States is very short, and it was founded by a group of lawless Puritans. Then people from various cultural backgrounds came to the United States for various reasons, such as black slaves and Mexicans.

, Jews, etc.

It can be said that the United States is the most chaotic country in the world, with the most complex races and nationalities.

It is undoubtedly very difficult for these disparate people to unite. It would be a miracle if they do not fight each other and split into countless small castles.

But it is such a group of people with different cultural backgrounds, races, and beliefs that have made the United States the most powerful country in the world.

However, the reason for such a bizarre result is not only the coincidence of the times, but also the fact that white people on the European continent are relatively strong as the main ethnic group in the United States. The most important thing is that almost all Americans have the same belief.

That's money!

It can be said that whether it is the Puritans who boarded the Mayflower more than two hundred years ago, or the elites from all over the world who try every means to get to the United States, as well as the stowaways who risk their lives.

The purpose of their coming to the United States is actually for money.

The reason why they abandon their families and living habits, as well as the motherland where they were born and raised, and go to the United States thousands of miles away, is not because they can earn more money in the United States, or even earn more money in their hometown.

Ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times.

Is it possible that some people really think that these people from all over the world are trying their best to come to the United States because of American democracy and freedom?

However, these unique cultures have created Americans' worship of money, the worship of entrepreneurs and big capitalists who have a lot of money.

Otherwise, looking at the history of the world, which country other than the United States would create a ranking of billionaires and the world's top 500 companies and be proud of it?

So it is not surprising that a large number of Americans now worship Fang Chen and regard him as an idol.

Not to mention, Fang Chen not only possesses a large amount of wealth like other super rich people, but also has advantages that other rich people do not have.

For example, he is young and handsome, his wealth increases as fast as a rocket, his legendary experience, and even his strong network of relationships in the United States, China and Russia, etc.

All of this is extremely worthy of people's exploration.

Even some time ago, there were already a large number of media and newspapers describing in detail how Fang Chen started from scratch, and then gradually built the company to such a big scale, becoming the well-deserved and unchallenged richest man in the world.

And with the large number and detail of these reports, if Fang Chen is willing to nod, a "Biography of Fang Chen" can be compiled without any effort.

But no matter how envious and jealous he was, he had to admit that Fang Chen was indeed worthy of special praise.

Based on Qingtian's market value, Fang Chen's net worth has reached US$100 billion.

But what's more important to know is that this astronomical figure of 100 billion US dollars is only a part of Fang Chen's total net worth.

The money Fang Chen earned from selling Netscape shares, as well as the value of Yahoo shares and Nvidia, were not included.

He was familiar with Netscape. Fangchen had taken away nearly 6 billion from him and Metsu. If you add in the shares diluted by Netscape's listing, it would be about the same even if it wasn't 7 billion.

As for Yahoo, based on Yahoo's current market value, Fang Chen's 60% stake in Yahoo is worth US$21.6 billion. And if Yahoo can develop smoothly, Fang Chen's US$216 will double several times, turning it into 50 or 60 US dollars.

Tens of billions of dollars should be no problem.

As for Nvidia, although it has not been listed or even has any plans to go public, according to the valuation given to Nvidia by the outside world, it still needs seven to eight billion US dollars.

Calculated in this way, the money Fang Chen earned in the United States has reached 378 billion U.S. dollars.

In addition, according to his understanding, Fang Chen cooperated with Soros some time ago and severely looted Southeast Asian countries once. If you include the special looting of Siam in February, it was twice.

Although he didn't know how much money Fang Chen earned, based on what Metsu revealed to him about how much Soros earned, he calculated that Fang Chen had earned at least 15 billion U.S. dollars these two times, which is higher.

, it’s not surprising that he even earned 20 billion US dollars.

To be honest, he is really convinced that Fang Chen has been doing things all over the world, including a lot of manufacturing, banking, energy, trading, investment, semiconductor industries, etc., but he is actually speculating in finance.

, also has extraordinary talents in looting countries.

Joining forces with Soros, he was able to succeed every time, not to mention a complete victory. What was most convincing to him was that although every time the country was plundered, Soros seemed to be the one responsible for looting the country, in fact, it was Soros who gained the most.

It’s definitely Fang Chen!

After all, although Soros' Quantum Fund has greater returns, Soros' own money only accounts for one-third of the entire Quantum Fund.

Unlike Fang Chen, no matter how much money he earns, he can keep it all in his pocket.

Adding these three items together, Fang Chen's net worth has reached more than 150 billion US dollars.

And what about him, the so-called second richest man in the world?

His net worth is only US$30 billion, which is less than one-fifth of Fang Chenming’s nominal net worth.

It can be said that Fang Chen has become the only one on the Forbes list, and no one else has the qualifications to compare with Fang Chen.

It can even be said that Fang Chen's net worth has surpassed more than 95% of the century-old families in the world.

The accumulation of dozens of people in this family over hundreds of years is actually not worth the money Fang Chen earned in seven years. It's really horrifying to think about it.

But what is even more frightening is that this US$150 billion is not all of Fang Chen’s wealth. Fang Chen’s greatest wealth is that he controls more than 20% of Russia’s oil and natural gas.

It can be said that the oil and natural gas reserves controlled by Fang Chen are higher than the oil and natural gas reserves of the entire United States.

Although limited by the mining capacity, I am afraid that it will be difficult for Fang Chen to extract so much oil and natural gas in his lifetime.

But even if we estimate conservatively, the oil and natural gas owned by Fang Chen is worth 400 to 500 billion U.S. dollars, so there should be no problem.

Thinking of this, Bill Gates couldn't help but sigh deeply, and suddenly felt that the awkwardness he had just had with Fang Chen was really meaningless.

"Do they like me? Do they admire me? They just like the money I have and want to get more money than me."

Fang Chen looked at the enthusiastic "fans" below and said in an unusually sober tone.

Bill Gates nodded reluctantly. To be honest, he really wanted Fang Chen to get lost in the admiration of these fans. In this case, he might one day catch up with Fang Chen.

But Fang Chen was so calm that it was a little scary.

But when he thought about it, he was relieved. If Fang Chen hadn't calmed down, he wouldn't have been able to reach this point and create so many miracles.

This time, these media reporters did not offend him, so Fang Chen had no intention of dealing with them and directly ordered someone to open the hatch.

After Fang Chen got off the plane, not surprisingly, a large number of media reporters and fans rushed in frantically, but they were all stopped early, and Huiming and others were firmly blocked outside the boarding stairs.

The whole scene is as if these people are the huge waves of the angry sea, while Huiming and others are like an unbreakable reef in the deep sea. Despite the crazy invasion of the waves, the reef remains towering and motionless.

Just as the airport security guards rushed over to maintain order, Fang Chen waved his hand to signal everyone to calm down.

Following Fang Chen's gesture, the turbulent waves gradually calmed down, but they were still looking at Fang Chen with a surging mood.

"I am very grateful for everyone's love for me, but I want to state that I am not a star. After all, no one can afford my appearance fee."

As soon as Fang Chen finished speaking, there was a burst of loud laughter from below.

Indeed, there are probably not many people in this world who can afford the appearance fee of Fang Chen, the world's richest man with a net worth of hundreds of billions.

"But in order to repay everyone's love, I am willing to accept a few questions from everyone here, and it is not limited to professional media reporters."

As soon as Fang Chen finished speaking, everyone below suddenly became excited again. They really didn't expect that they would have the opportunity to ask Fang Chen questions in person. This is obviously a privilege only journalists in the media have.

As for those media reporters, they looked at Fang Chen's deprivation of their "privileges" expressionlessly, and just raised their microphones and cameras slightly.

After all, to them, it doesn't really matter who asks the question, as long as there is enough material for them to write explosive news reports.

Seeing that everyone had understood, Fang Chen casually pointed to a media reporter.

"I am a reporter from Time Magazine, and I would like to ask Mr. Fang, why did you have the foresight to abandon Netscape and invest in Yahoo instead?"

Although he had expected that someone would ask this question, Bill Gates couldn't help but darken his face when he heard it.

It can be said that as much as these reporters praised Fang Chen, they poked his spine.

"In fact, not long after Netscape went public, I realized that Netscape had some inevitable flaws. These flaws made it difficult for Netscape to become a pioneer in the Internet era, but it was difficult for Netscape to become a good company. Netscape could not

Create a business model that can steadily generate revenue from traffic."

"As for collecting money from users, although it sounds feasible, facts have proven that this is a very bad idea, so when Bill was interested, I handed over the management rights of Netscape to Bill..."

Hearing this, Bill Gates's face turned even darker. He felt that every word Fang Chen was deliberately hurting his heart, and the flashes of the cameras in the reporters' hands made him completely invisible.

He even couldn't help but wonder if this media reporter was a trustee arranged by Fang Chen in advance. If there weren't so many questions to ask, why would he ask such a damn question in the first place?

"But Yahoo is different. Yahoo's business model is a win-win or even a triple win. In addition to allowing Internet users to obtain better, more exciting and more convenient information content and helping advertisers promote their products, Yahoo also allows users to

Discover more affordable, novel and interesting products to make their lives better.”

Everyone couldn't help but nodded. In fact, Yahoo's advertisements were not very offensive, and there were even many recommended products, all of which were quite good.

"And I believe even more that the emergence of Yahoo, including Yahoo's listing, can bring huge benefits to all investors who trust and love Yahoo. This is God's reward for his smart and wise believers!" Fang Chen suddenly cheered up.

shouted.

Upon hearing this, Bill Gates' complexion suddenly changed and he couldn't help but cover his ears.

Since this group of people are fans of Fang Chen, and they can come to New York at this time, there is a high probability that a considerable part of this group of people are qualified to purchase Yahoo shares and are shareholders of Yahoo!

Sure enough, a deafening and earth-shattering cheer suddenly erupted from below. They shouted loudly, praising God and praising Fang Chen.
