Nowadays, with the development of China's economic strength, there are more and more successful entrepreneurs in China. These people are not only rich in money, but can even become the richest man. When it comes to the richest man, we have to say that Ma Yun, Ma Hua Teng and other famous entrepreneurs were once the richest men in China. According to the Hurun Global Rich List in 2020, Jeff Bezos of Amazon is the richest man in the world. Although his wealth has shrunk due to divorce, he still becomes the richest man in the world with a value of 980 billion yuan, while Jack Ma, the richest man in China who retired from Alibaba, is worth as much as 31500 million yuan. Even with such strong financial resources, he can only rank 2 1 in the world. On the stage of becoming the world's richest man, there was once a China man whose worth once exceeded 5 trillion, but his status as the "world's richest man" only lasted for eight minutes.

The "richest man in the world" is Feng. Born in Huxi Village, diankou town, Zhuji City, Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province, 1960. There are seven children in his family, and Feng ranks sixth. Because of his poor family, Feng only went to high school. After graduation, Feng entered a supply and marketing cooperative in Zhuji as a salesperson, mainly responsible for selling soy sauce, sugar and vinegar. Feng was promoted to the manager of supply and marketing branch in 1983 because of his hard work and hard work.
1985 in order to expand market regulation and promote the rationalization of rural industrial structure, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council have studied and formulated ten policies to further invigorate the rural economy, one of which stipulates:
"All processing, supply and marketing, science and technology and other services in rural areas should be United by the state, collectives and individuals, and especially support the establishment of cooperatives. Supply and marketing cooperatives should be completely independent in accounting, be responsible for their own profits and losses, operate independently and be managed democratically by the masses. "
In response to the call of the country, more and more people began to start businesses in the sea. Feng, 25, was also influenced by this big environment and contracted a trading company under the supply and marketing cooperative. Although it is a company, it is actually just a grocery store selling scrap iron. Feng also made his first pot of gold by selling copper.

However, just when the business was in full swing, the price of copper began to decline and the purchased copper could not be sold. "Feng's hut is full of scrap metal", so Feng had to find another way out. After some thinking, Feng raised initial funds, rented an abandoned workshop in the supply and marketing cooperative, built two small copper furnaces, and began to transform into the field of copper processing. In order to be able to sell his products, Feng ran around. After unremitting efforts, Feng's business is booming and he soon gained a firm foothold in the field of copper processing.
1992, Feng established Zhuji Copper Company, and changed its name to Zhuji Copper Co., Ltd. three years later. Since then, the business has grown bigger and bigger. Not only did it start to cooperate with famous enterprises such as Midea, Haier and LG, but it also began to enter the field of education, and established Hailiang Education, which is also a company, making Feng the "richest man in the world in eight minutes".

On August 17, 10, a "fat finger" incident occurred at 9: 35 US time, which made Feng the richest man in the world for eight minutes. The market value of Hailiang Education soared to $5.4 trillion because of the wrong instructions of stock traders, while the market value of Apple, the world's largest company by market value at that time, was $8,365,438+$90 million. Feng owns 92.8% of Hailiang Education and becomes the richest man in the world. Eight minutes later, at 9: 43 US time, the mistake was corrected and Feng also fell from the throne of the world's richest man.
In 2020, in the Hurun Global Rich List of Shimao Shenzhen-Hong Kong International Center in 2020, Feng ranked 540th with a property of 32 billion yuan.
