Chapter 927 The Ten Richest People
Liu Tao looked at the ten Indonesian Chinese tycoons with a serious expression.
These Chinese tycoons are all outstanding people of their generation, not mediocre people. Mediocre people cannot make such great achievements in a good environment, and they cannot make a breakthrough in a bad environment.
Among the ten people, the worst one has a wealth of 3 billion US dollars, and the richest one has a wealth of 30 billion US dollars.
Among them, at least half of their wealth is placed outside Indonesia, especially in Hong Kong.
Lin Shaoliang, Indonesia's "cement king", "real estate king", "financial king", "banking king", "trade king", etc., is the richest man in Indonesia for more than 30 years, and has achieved the ultimate in ten fields.
Huang Yicong, Indonesia's "edible oil king" and "papermaking king", has the world's largest palm oil industry chain, and the area of oil palm cultivation in Indonesia alone is equivalent to 8 Singapores.
Cai Daoxing, along with his brother Cai Daoping, inherited their father's business. They are the "cigarette kings" of Indonesia, monopolizing the entire Indonesian "cigarette" market. The annual production of the Yancang Group, which they control, has reached 100 billion cigarettes, with sales exceeding US$2 billion and profits exceeding US$300 million. The various enterprises under their command have more than 100,000 employees.
Huang Huixiang and his brother Huang Huizhong took the lead and inherited their father's business after the Zhenji Cigarette Factory was burned down by a fire in 1963, causing their father to die of severe damage. Now they are the "cigarette kings" of Indonesia, with an annual production of 100 billion cigarettes, sales exceeding US$2 billion and profits exceeding US$300 million. Together with the Cai family, they cover the entire tobacco market in Indonesia. Their companies cover businesses in many fields such as tobacco, real estate, banking, electronic products, and palm oil.
Chen Dezong, Indonesia's 'computer king', 'game console king', and 'electronics king', is also a partner of Panshan Group. At that time, Chen Dezong was only a relatively famous businessman who attached great importance to reputation. He moved from Hong Kong to Jakarta to do business in 1980 and became a partner of Panshan Group in 1981. He represented Panshan Group's Jinlong computers, game consoles, telephones, televisions, DVD players, video recorders, radios, tape recorders, stereos, mobile phones and other products.
Yang Yaozu, Indonesia's 'motorcycle king' and 'car king', is a partner of Panshan Group. He is an agent for the sales of Panshan Group's motorcycles and cars, and is also responsible for the after-sales service of Panshan Group's motorcycles and cars. He is the largest motorcycle seller and the largest car seller in Indonesia.
Wang Nianzu, Indonesia's 'home appliance king', is a partner of Panshan Group. He sells various home appliances, including fans, hair dryers, air conditioners, refrigerators, water heaters, etc., and almost monopolizes Indonesia's home appliance market.
Chen Huaming, Indonesia's 'food king', 'aquatic king', 'meat king', 'coffee king', 'rubber king', monopolizes half of Indonesia's market share in food, water plants, meat, coffee, and rubber.
Huang Jiming, Indonesia's 'coal king', 'oil king', 'natural gas king', and 'diamond king', more than half of Indonesia's oil, natural gas, and coal are produced by his companies. In addition to meeting Indonesia's local needs, coal, oil, and natural gas are also exported to Southeast Asian countries.
Lin Huangjin, Indonesia's 'hydropower king' and 'communication king', monopolizes Indonesia's water supply, power supply, and communication markets.
Each of them is a wealthy man with amazing wealth. They have great influence among Indonesian Chinese, and even have a great influence among the entire Southeast Asian Chinese community.
Liu Tao hopes that they can be more vigilant, master more armed forces, and thus have the power to protect themselves.
In recent years, with the arrival of batches of people in Indonesia, the number of Chinese in Indonesia has reached 20 million, accounting for almost 10% of the total population of Indonesia. These people mainly come from Hong Kong, Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang, Hainan, Guangxi and other provinces, and are mainly distributed in eight places: Jakarta, Central Java, East Java, Xiawa, Banten, Bangka-Belitung, Riau, and West Kalimantan.
20 million people, but only 20,000 armed forces, is undoubtedly too few, and is not enough to have the power to protect themselves.
Because the Chinese are hardworking and capable, good at creating wealth and doing business, all Chinese in Indonesia live well and have a lot of wealth, which will undoubtedly be coveted by jackals.
Only with a strong armed force can we deter jackals and have the ability to kill jackals when they dare to attack.
Moreover, these ten rich businessmen own large tracts of land and even many islands. It is just like playing to train thousands or tens of thousands of armed forces on one island.
Twenty thousand people are too few. At least one hundred thousand armed forces are needed, and two hundred thousand armed forces would be the best.
There are 17,508 islands in Indonesia. If they are dispersed in 100 islands, each island only needs 2,000 people to have two hundred thousand people!
Liu Tao's words made the top ten businessmen frown and look solemn.
They will not fail to see the crisis, but as businessmen, they always hope to make money in harmony and always hope for luck.
But Liu Tao is undoubtedly breaking their luck.
They have all experienced the events of the 1960s, and naturally know that once such an event breaks out, even if they can escape from Indonesia, their assets will suffer heavy losses.
If they strengthen the armed forces, it will be different.
Especially Liu Tao promised to help them, and painted a big pie for them in his words, which made them excited.
Their careers have reached this point, to be honest, they have already reached their peak, and it is very difficult to break through.
But if they turn over and become the master, and control the whole of Indonesia, even if it is only a quarter, it will be different.
Liu Tao saw the expressions of these Chinese businessmen, and he was relieved. He was most afraid that these people would not be tempted, and as long as they were tempted, then the following things would be easy.
If you want to do something from the outside, it is not easy, after all, you have to consider some reputation now.
But if it is internal, it is someone else's internal affairs, even if Europe and the United States are unhappy, there is nothing to say.
There is much more room for operation here, and the room for maneuver is also very large.
As for the bloodshed and sacrifices in the process, Liu Tao will not take it to heart. If you want to do something, how can there be no bloodshed and sacrifice!
Liu Tao has been paying attention to this place for many years, and has invested a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources here, organizing a large number of people to come here, hoping that there will be earth-shaking changes here.
As for guns and bullets, tanks and armored vehicles, artillery shells, and various cannons, that is not a problem at all.
In recent years, the world has been generally peaceful, and the warehouse of Panshan Group is full of weapons and ammunition. If this continues, Liu Tao will have to worry about the sales of weapons and ammunition.
As long as things can be done, he will promote them even if he does not make money, because it involves survival and development space.
