Hexagonal God

Chapter 511 Competition among the Richest

After Su Mo completed the acquisition of charging piles across the country, a system prompt came.

[The host has once again expanded his industrial layout, issuing temporary tasks and competing for the richest man.]

[Competition for the Richest Person: The host needs to be ranked at least the richest person in the country on the 2015 Forbes list, and at least in the top ten worldwide.]

[Tomorrow, when Forbes compiles the statistics, if you become the richest person in China and rank among the top 9-10 worldwide, you will be rewarded with one Grandmaster Peak Scroll.]

[Rank 7-8 and receive 2 Grandmaster Peak Scrolls of Your Choice.]

[Rank 5-6 and receive 1 wish scroll and 2 Grandmaster Peak scrolls of your choice.]

[Rank 3-4 and receive 2 wish scroll and 2 Grandmaster Peak scrolls of your choice.]

[Entering the second place will reward you with 2 wishing scrolls, 2 Grandmaster Peak scrolls of your choice, and 2 chances to win the prize wheel.]

[Take the title of the world's richest man and receive 2 wishing scrolls, 2 Grandmaster's choice scrolls, 2 prize wheel draws, and 1 ghost account.]

When Su Mo saw this reward, he was stunned.

Is this system allowing me to make money like crazy?

Forbes World and Forbes National are two completely different concepts.

In fact, with Su Mo's current wealth, before the drinking water plant was listed, he was not considered the richest man in the country.

Because Lao Wang will continue to be the richest man this year, and his wealth will skyrocket to 242 billion US dollars.

Compared with last year's 100 billion yuan, his wealth has doubled.

But even with this level of wealth, he is already the richest man in China, but globally, he can only rank 29th.

The starting reward for this task is to become the richest man in the country and enter the top ten in the world.

Su Mo didn't remember much about other people, but he remembered Li Chaoren from Hong Kong Island, who ranked ninth with a net worth of 333 billion US dollars this year.

The first is Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, who is worth about 80 billion US dollars.

The second is Carlos Slim, CEO of Telemexico, who is worth more than 77 billion US dollars.

The third is Warren Buffett, the stock god, with a net worth of approximately 73 billion US dollars.

Su Mo couldn't quite remember the net worth of the remaining people, but they were basically all world-renowned tycoons.

If Su Mo wants to make it onto this list, he must at least have a net worth no less than Li Chaoren's.

More than 33 billion US dollars and more than 200 billion RMB.

If you want to become the world's richest man, you have to surpass Bill Gates.

The Microsoft tycoon's net worth is 80 billion US dollars, equivalent to nearly 600 billion yuan.

Su Mo's current net worth is only a little over 100 billion yuan. He is not even the richest man in China, and he is still a long way from being the richest man in the world.

Moreover, Su Mo knew that the world's richest man on the Forbes list was actually only the richest man in public, and there were still many people whose wealth exceeded this figure in secret.

However, those people's identities are sensitive and they basically will not be on this Forbes list.

But that doesn’t matter. What the system requires now is to take down the world’s richest man. This task is quite challenging.

There are still eight months left, and the net worth needs to increase by 500 billion to win this title. It's worth a try.

And this reward is really generous.

Not to mention the wishing scroll and the Grandmaster's peak optional scroll, Su Mo has even played the roulette wheel, but what is this ghost account?
“What is a ghost account?”

[A ghost account is an absolutely secure account that the host will have. The amount of funds that can be transferred is unlimited. This account has all the functions of a bank account, but no one can check it and it cannot be frozen.]

When Su Mo heard about this reward, he was immediately tempted.

Get it! Must get it!
The reason why Su Mo is spending money recklessly now is because he has a risk avoidance scroll.

This scroll can avoid financial risks in the country and will not remind people to investigate.

But this is not necessarily the case abroad.

Su Mo's current industries are basically carried out in China. The drinking water manufacturer has not yet been built abroad, and the overseas version of the Moyin website has not been officially launched. In fact, there are concerns.

Before capital grows to a point where no one can shake it, it is actually somewhat fragile.

Su Mo doesn't want to take too many risks for the time being, so his main investment areas are domestic.

But what about the future?
If you become the richest man in the country, will you retire in the country?
Su Mo didn't think so. He had so much wealth and opportunities. Wouldn't it be too boring if he didn't give himself some challenges in life?

This ghost account is exactly what he wants.

With this account, the safety of his funds is completely guaranteed.

No one can freeze his account, and there are no restrictions on transfers. Su Mo even doesn't need to use anyone else to buy Bitcoin.

All funds can be in one account, and it is safe to put all eggs in one basket.

Su Mo also asked cautiously: "Can the system be taken back?"

[No, once a ghost account appears, it will be completely bound to the host. Unless the host voluntarily cancels or transfers it, no one can take it back or even influence it in the slightest, not even the system.]

After receiving this guarantee, Su Mo was completely relieved.

It’s just the world’s richest man, I must strive to get it within eight months.

Su Mo was checking the system tasks and ignored Zheng Junxi next to him.

Zheng Junxi felt deeply insulted. Besides, the charging station had been bought now, so he didn't have to look at Su Mo's face anymore.

"Su Shen! You've gone too far this time, but don't be too complacent. Your Su Tang Group is far from being comparable to the giant Hyundai Motor. Let's wait and see!"

After saying these harsh words, he still felt a little scared. This is Su Mo, he won't beat him to death, right?
After saying this, he didn't even dare to look Su Mo in the eye, and left the scene as if he was escaping.

Su Mo watched Zheng Junxi leave without taking his words to heart at all.

Being among the top 500 companies in the world is nothing.

After his Su Tang Group completes the listing of its drinking water products, it will definitely be one of the world's top 500 companies, and its ranking will not be too low.

Now that charging stations are available nationwide, Su Mo asked electric vehicle manufacturers to speed up construction.

With solid-state batteries, more car models can be developed. Su Mo asked the manufacturer to develop eight models first to cope with the surging enthusiasm for car buying in the current market.

Three sedans, three SUVs, and two commercial vehicles.

As for some supercars and other luxury cars, we can add them slowly.

The three sedans are compact, standard, and luxury.

The same is true for SUVs, which come in three sizes: large, medium and small.

One is ordinary business, the other is luxury business.

These can basically meet the needs of most car buyers. The prices of sedans are 200,000, 400,000 and 700,000 respectively.

The CUV is priced at 300,000, 500,000 and 1 million.

For business, this is 250,000 and 600,000.

Su Tang doesn’t have any cars that are too cheap, and he doesn’t have any top-of-the-line luxury cars either.

The road is still long, let’s take it one step at a time.

Su Mo arranged things simply, even if there were a thousand other things to do, he didn't have time to do them.

Because I have already made an appointment with the leaders in Shanghai to host a dinner for guests from Sun Hung Kai Properties in Hong Kong Island tonight, and the leaders will also be present.

The business negotiations were supposed to take place today, but Zheng Junxi's incident caused trouble. Su Mo had no choice but to apologize to his boss, agree to a banquet tonight, and complete the acquisition tomorrow.

The leader was still very considerate because he also knew that Su Mo was going to participate in the racing competition.

He even said that he would pay attention to the results of the racing and reminded Su Mo not to crash his car.

Su Mo did get bumped, but it was worth it, as the leader also saw the superiority of Su Mo's car.

It was almost evening when Su Mo finished his work with Zheng Junxi. He immediately took his team and drove to the restaurant where they had made a reservation.

Huang Gongzi Restaurant, located in the XH district, only accepts reservations and is not open to the public. Most people cannot find the door if they want to go there.

Su Mo's best friend Chen Xingyu made the reservation, but he didn't dare to show up.

Knowing that there would be leaders from Shanghai having dinner today, Chen Xingyu, a second-generation Shanghainese, basically didn't dare to appear in front of them for fear of being criticized.

Su Mo brought several team members to the box he had reserved.

Arrived half an hour early, it was fine.

As soon as Su Mo arrived, people from Hong Kong Island Sun Hung Kai arrived.

The person who came was named Guo, Guo Bingliang.

Su Mo even knew that the current owner of Sun Hung Kai Properties would be a member of the Forbes list in the future and was very famous in Hong Kong Island.

When Guo Bingliang arrived, Su Mo immediately stood up and shook hands with each other.

"Hahaha! President Su, you're truly a young hero! I watched the entire race today, and you really made us Chinese proud!"

Su Mo smiled. "It's just a trivial skill, not worthy of Mr. Guo's praise. But if it can make those Koreans restrain themselves a little, I'm still happy to do it."

Su Mo is modest, but not blindly modest. He knows some conversation skills.

As expected, Guo Bingliang laughed happily. "I don't like the people from that country either. They're a little too self-righteous. President Su's victory is what we all want to see."

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Su Mo invited Guo Bingliang to sit on the sofa in the meeting room.

"Mr. Su, actually, we had no intention of buying this IFC building, but my boss called me and said he would sell it to you, so I agreed. After all, what you've done is truly admirable, and I'd like to take this opportunity to make friends with you."

"Mr. Guo is a senior, and Su Mo is just a junior. I really feel ashamed to be worthy of this title."

"Hey! Don't be so modest. When Mr. Su goes to Hong Kong Island to develop his business, I should be able to help him a little. We should communicate more."

Su Mo then remembered that there were actually things to do in Hong Kong Island.

Hong Kong Island is surrounded by the sea on three sides, with few natural lakes and a lack of groundwater, and fresh water is extremely scarce.

When Su Mo's dream was almost over, around 2023, a seawater desalination plant was built there.

This project is extremely popular among the people of Hong Kong Island. It meets the daily drinking needs of people across the island and is something that everyone takes very seriously.

However, this matter seems to have nothing to do with Su Mo for the time being, and Su Mo has no plans to do it immediately, but he just has a vague idea in his mind.

The two chatted for a while and then the leader arrived.

There were only three of them at the table, with the leader in the middle, and Su Mo and Guo Bingliang on either side.

They didn't drink much during the meal, and didn't talk about anything substantive, but the leader's presence put an end to the matter.

Tomorrow, Guo Bingliang will go to transfer the ownership of the Shanghai IFC Building to Su Mo.

And tonight is the time when the money that Su Mo bet will be returned. If he can't get the money back, he really doesn't have the money to pay the 16.5 billion to the IFC.

But now he is rich. Su Mo invested 10.8 billion yuan and got 21.6 billion yuan back directly, becoming rich again.
