Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Actually, Su Yang already knew that he was the richest man in the world.
However, this was not because the World’s Billionaire List had informed him in advance, but because it was just too easy to realize..
After all, his assets had exceeded Bill Gates by too much. Furthermore, his assets could be further refined long ago, so there was no chance he was going to be in second place.
In fact, the people from the World Billionaire List did want to meet Su Yang and have a chat with him. However, with Su Yang’s current status at the time, even the local tycoons were unable to be granted an audience just because they wanted to, let alone the people from the World Billionaire List.
Hence, Zhao Licheng did not even inform Su Yang when these people had made a visit to request a meeting with Su Yang. Instead, Zhao Licheng arranged for Li Zijun to send them away.
Initially, Zhao Licheng wanted to discuss with them to have Su Yang’s assets reduced so that not all of it was exposed.
However, when he thought about how the whole world knew about Su Yang’s family background, he realized that there was just no hiding it anymore.. Hence, he did not inform Su Yang about it.
The news of Su Yang becoming the richest man in the world caused a lot of discussion in the country. It also caused a huge uproar internationally.
‘The richest man in the world is someone who comes from China!’
This actually attracted attention.
Over the years, many people had thought that the development of the Eastern countries were poor due to the Western foolish policies. They were even under the impression that the citizens of these Eastern countries were still riding their bicycles on dirt roads.
This was the established impression created by publicity.
But when Su Yang became the richest man in the world, many people were shocked.
‘Could such a poor country produce the richest man in the world?’
This shock turned into curiosity, which then aroused understanding.
Therefore, many westerners took the initiative to understand the current situation in China as well as Su Yang.
All of a sudden, keywords such as “China”, “Eastern Country”, “Su Yang”, and “Jiadian” exploded in Google’s search rankings.
After understanding the situation, many people realized that China had become a different country.
Due to the popularity and influence brought by the Billionaires List, Su Yang’s company, software, and statistics had all improved.
The most obvious feature was the Point software that Su Yang was promoting.
This international TikTok attracted the attention of many international users. After searching for Su Yang and Jiadian, many users found this new software.
Out of curiosity, they played and watched some videos.
In the end..
They realized that they were completely hooked.
TikTok is indeed poisonous. And this poison was now being spreaded to the world through Point..
While Su Yang was famous throughout the world, someone attracted the attention of many people in the country.
That someone was.. Tang Jing.
Previously, Tang Jing and Su Yang had collaborated to set up Su Yang’s “Sutang Venture Capital” and invested tens of millions of yuan into it.
Most of the money was then invested in Juduoduo.
Furthermore, Tang Jing had been riding on Su Yang’s coattails, investing in whatever he invested. This led to the increase in Juduoduo’s shares in Sutang Venture Capital.
Other than Juduoduo, due to Su Yang’s extra care, if Jiadian Group wanted to invest in a company, they would also bring along Sutang Venture Capital.
This caused the company to grow exponentially.
In early March, Juduoduo won the last round of financing for Tencent and Jiadian. Its valuation climbed to 18 billion USD.
At that point, they were also working towards becoming a listed company.
At the same time, the price of Sutang Venture Capital, who held a 4.2% stake in Juduoduo, also rose to 75.6 billion USD, which was more than 5 billion yuan.
Coupled with other investments, the total value of Sutang Venture Capital was about 6 billion yuan.
Meanwhile, Tang Jing, who held a 20% share in Sutang Venture Capital, had a net worth of 1 billion USD.
This made Tang Jing officially a tycoon.
Although Juduoduo had yet to enter that year’s World Billionaire List, it was said that Juduoduo was already seeking to be listed in America and was likely to succeed that very year.
Once Juduoduo was listed, with Tencent and Jiadian as their backers, coupled with the current momentum of Juduoduo’s development, the estimated value would increase by three to four times.
By then.. Tang Jing’s net worth and status would be completely different.
This made many people want to befriend her.
Of course, many of them were targeting Su Yang as their endgame.
After all, everyone knew that Su Yang was the major shareholder.
...
Meanwhile, in Sutang Venture Capital’s General Manager Office on the 18th floor of Tianmao Tower in Shanghai...
Tang Jing, who was wearing a fitting suit styled for women, stood up from behind the table with a smile. Then she took the initiative to shake hands with the visitor. “Ms. Qiu, don’t worry. I’ll take a look at your financing proposal today. If there’s no problem with it, we’ll go ahead with the process.
“If we find that it’s suitable for us, I’ll personally contact you.”
After sending the person out of the office and closing the door, a tired expression appeared on Tang Jing’s face.
She rubbed her temples before returning to the desk. She opened the document and started reading.
Compared to two or three years ago, Tang Jing was much calmer now.
When Su Yang first met her, she still had a lot of rouge on her. One look and anyone could tell that she was a white-collar woman. Even though she looked pretty, there was nothing too outstanding about her.

However, after so many years of training and managing a company that was worth billions, the vulgarity had been worn away. Only the air of a helmsman was left, and she looked more like a strong woman.
However, in between her brows and her every move, the gentleness and kindness of a young married woman still appeared on her, making her seem like a matured but beautiful woman.
After reading the document for a while, Tang Jing had a rough idea of what it was about. At that moment, she knew that the company she was looking at was not very good.
As a subsidiary of Jiadian Group, Sutang Venture Capital had taken on many projects over the years.
Tang Jing carried the responsibility of the subsidiary company and would hand the projects she deemed to be decent to the headquarters.
After the head office made a decision, they would invest together with Sutang Venture Capital or directly reject the proposal.
As for what happened after that, the main company would be in charge of the negotiations. As for the details, they would be handled by the investment department.
Sutang Venture Capital, on the other hand, needed to be connected to these companies to ensure that nothing would go wrong.
Compared to Ali, Jiadian Group was more inclined to invest in Tencent. They would only invest in Tencent. Therefore, even though Su Tang would monitor these companies, she would not care about them.
This saved Tang Jing a lot of effort.
Even so, managing such a big company was still very tiring.
Tang Jing sometimes wondered who it was that had “dragged” her into that mess.
‘I suppose it was that young man’
