Major media outlets and television stations around the world were reporting on the new world's richest man.
Ye Hao Chen, the newly-minted Chinese world's richest man at just 20 years old, had all his accomplishments publicized.
Compared to other countries, China was the most shocked. Even the People's Bank of China issued a report.
For a time, the whole nation was in awe. A Chinese citizen had actually become the world's richest man.
Three hundred and forty billion US dollars, converted to RMB, would be over a thousand billion.
Ye Hao Chen, however, did not rush back to Hong Kong Island. Instead, he flew around the world.
He basically went on a shopping spree. First, he placed an order for a private jet from Boeing, spending millions of US dollars.
Then, he bought a few properties in New York, including a manor.
He also placed an order for a yacht from a yacht company, spending tens of millions of US dollars.
Of course, these were just down payments for the private jet and yacht.
Then, after a few days, the price of source stones rose to $43.8 per barrel.
He immediately instructed Clauton to trade, eventually cashing out $8.57 billion.
After leaving $4 billion to Star Sea Investment, he returned to Hong Kong Island half a month later.
This $4 billion was mainly for Claus to invest in some worthwhile industries.
During this half-month of spending money everywhere, he spent a total of $600 million.
He basically bought real estate and luxury goods all over the world.
Victoria Peak!
The Ye family was still in disbelief. In a month, he had earned hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars.
"This is the surprise you mentioned?,"
Ye Zhi Rong took a deep breath and said with a wry smile.
"Haha, this surprise is big enough, right?,"
"You're the world's richest man's sister now,"
Ye Hao Chen put his arm around his elder sister's shoulder and said with a smile.
"This isn't a surprise, it's a shock,"
Ye Zhi Rong shook her head. Even now, she couldn't believe it.
Hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars, could it be piled up into a mountain?
While the two younger brothers and younger sister looked at their elder brother with admiration.
"Brother, can you get me a sports car?,"
Ye Hao Yu's eyes lit up and he said excitedly.
"Me too, I want a Ferrari,"
Ye Hao Wen also nodded excitedly, his eyes full of anticipation as he looked at his elder brother.
"Alright, don't say one, ten will do,"
Ye Hao Chen also smiled. How much could a Ferrari cost?
He had also bought a few sports cars and luxury cars.
Lin Shi Lian and Ye Yong Cun, the couple, also had smiles on their faces, their eyes full of pride.
This was their son, a true genius.
.....
The next day, at the golf course, Huo Lao, Bao Chuan Wang, and Li Zhao Ji were all present.
When they saw Ye Hao Chen arrive late, they all teased him.
"You little rascal, you've been gone for a month and you've become a world-renowned figure,"
Huo Lao looked at Ye Hao Chen with admiration, and he was also fortunate that this kid was a citizen of his own country.
The mainland had even called him.
There was no way around it, hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars, even one-tenth of that was still tens of billions.
If tens of billions were invested in the mainland, it was unimaginable.
At the very least, it could create hundreds of thousands of jobs and boost the economy of a city.
Bao Chuan Wang and Li Zhao Ji also nodded slightly.
When the news reached Hong Kong, they thought they had seen wrong, heard wrong.
"Hao Chen, next time you have a chance to pick up money like this, remember to tell me,"
"I also want to try picking up money with a sack,"
Li Zhao Ji took a sip of juice and said with a smile.
To say that he wasn't envious was a lie, after all, it wasn't tens of millions.
"The stock market is risky, not to mention futures,"
"I can't guarantee making money..."
Ye Hao Chen smiled wryly at Li Zhao Ji. He wouldn't mind if he had the chance.
"If you want to make big money, you have to take risks,"
"In this world, is there any business without risk?,"
Huo Lao shook his head gently. If there was no risk, it wouldn't be business.
"Alright, I'll let you know if I have a chance,"
"Li Shu, speed up the progress in Tseung Kwan O,"
"Bring all your group's engineering teams there,"
Ye Hao Chen nodded, then he thought of the Eco-Technology Park.
He had just been to Tseung Kwan O to take a look, and it was still too slow with thousands of workers.
At this rate, it would take years to complete.
Because the mobile phone is about to be released.
"Look, the world's richest man speaks differently,"
"I will arrange two more engineering teams to go there, that's the limit,"
"If you want to finish it as soon as possible, I can help you contact others,"
Li Zhao Ji shook his head helplessly. His company also had its own business.
It was impossible to only work on Ye Hao Chen's Eco-Technology Park and abandon other businesses.
"Huo Shi Group has an engineering team, with hundreds of people,"
"Tomorrow, I will have them go there,"
Huo Lao looked at Ye Hao Chen's expression and said in a deep voice.
Huo family's industry was not real estate, but they did have a real estate company.
"Alright, then thank you, Huo Lao, I want to build the Eco-Technology Park as soon as possible,"
Ye Hao Chen smiled and nodded. Adding three more engineering teams would significantly speed up the process.
Building factories was simple, but the most crucial part was that the roads in Tseung Kwan O were not accessible, making it like opening up new land, so it required manpower in all aspects.
The most important thing was to build the science and technology building. This era did not have construction cranes, so the speed was even slower.
"It seems that the golden piece of land in Tsim Sha Tsui, old man, you can't compete with him,"
Li Zhao Ji suddenly said in a low voice. This kid is the world's richest man, how can he compete.
He really wanted that piece of land, the location was too good, it was right next to Victoria Harbour, whether it was built into villas or buildings, it was a surefire investment.
"Li Shu, just let this junior have it,"
"You said I'm the world's richest man, how can I not have a decent group building,"
Ye Hao Chen smiled. Besides that piece of golden land, he didn't want to let go of other good properties.
In this era, not doing real estate in Hong Kong was simply foolish.
