From the change of the richest man, look at the change of capital preference
From the changes of the richest man, we can glimpse the trend changes of social development, especially the changes in capital preferences and tastes.
Here are the top ten richest people in Hurun statistics in the past 20 years:
None of today's top ten rich people are engaged in real estate, and five years ago, at least 3 were engaged in real estate.
Internet billionaires are still the most, but the momentum is not as good as before, Selling water Zhong Sui, selling batteries Zeng Yuqun has defeated Ma Yun and Ma Huateng, which was unimaginable in the past, which shows that manufacturing has once again become the outlet favored by capital.
This year, the threshold for entering the list of the "2021 Hurun Rich List" is 2 billion yuan, and this year, 2918 entrepreneurs have a wealth of more than 2 billion yuan, an increase of 520 people over last year, three times more than 10 years ago, and the growth rate is rapid.
In addition, the total wealth of the entrepreneurs on the list increased by 24% over last year to 34 trillion yuan.
Why is the growth so good this year?
Hurun said that the number of people on the list of the richest people and the total wealth increased by more than 20% over last year, mainly due to the rapid growth of new energy-related industries and the large number of new listed companies. Another reason is the increase in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan entrepreneurs this year (151 in Hong Kong, 87 in Taiwan, and 3 in Macau).
This shows that new energy vehicles have become the most beautiful boy in the capital market.

In which cities are the 2,918 richest people located?
Let's take another look at the ranking of cities in this list.
The following is the distribution of entrepreneurs' rich residences according to the "2021 Hurun Rich List":
The top 10 cities with the richest entrepreneurs are: Beijing, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Suzhou, Foshan, Ningbo and Taipei.
Among the top ten cities, the Yangtze River Delta has Shanghai, Hangzhou, Suzhou and Ningbo, and the Greater Bay Area has Shenzhen, Hong Kong, Guangzhou and Foshan.
Beijing, Shenzhen and Shanghai ranked in the first echelon, with the number of entrepreneurs and billionaires being 341, 301 and 294 respectively, and the number of spire entrepreneurs was far ahead.
Hangzhou, Hong Kong and Guangzhou ranked second in the echelon, with 170, 151 and 112 respectively.
Suzhou, Foshan and Ningbo can be regarded as the third echelon, and the rich people say that the number is between 60 and 100.
From the perspective of the increase in entrepreneurs and riches, Hong Kong is the fiercest, with an increase of 89 people, followed by Shanghai with an increase of 78 people, Shenzhen 26, Suzhou 22, Beijing 16, Hangzhou 15.
As mentioned earlier, a considerable part of this list is a reference to the market capitalization of listed companies.
The following is the total market capitalization of each city as of the end of 2020 calculated by the China Fund Report:
It can be seen that the top five cities coincide.
With a comprehensive market capitalization of listed companies and the number of listed companies of 100 billion, Beijing, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Hangzhou and Guangzhou are the five most favored cities in the capital market.
Here's a ranking of the companies with the most people on the list:
Zhejiang merchants are the first in the number of list, followed by Guangdong businessmen
From the perspective of the number of entrepreneurs and rich people, Ningbo is super Nanjing, Suzhou is super Chengdu, Wuxi is super Wuhan, Xiamen is super Chongqing, Yantai is super Tianjin, and there are many small cities that exceed large cities.
This may make some people question the industry in big cities.
Actually, it doesn't have to be.
To judge the comprehensive strength of a city, it mainly depends on GDP, fiscal revenue, total amount of funds, population attractiveness, etc., and the number of rich people can only reflect the activity of the private economy.
The list only calculates the valuation wealth, which is largely affected by the market value of listed companies, and the stock prices of many listed companies are very unstable.
In addition, there are a large number of hidden champions who are not listed or do not participate in the rankings.
Therefore, the list can reflect the situation of the city's spire entrepreneurs to a certain extent, but it cannot be equated with comprehensive competitiveness. Another point can not be ignored, large enterprises often have a layout throughout the country, contributing to many cities, and entrepreneurs can only count one place of residence.
The Hurun Rich List also mentioned the following paragraph in the article:
The meaning of the above passage is that there are still a large number of rich people who are "scattered" in the private sector and have not been found.
Therefore, measuring the comprehensive strength of the city must be multi-dimensional.
In addition, the "2021 Hurun Rich List" mentioned that from the perspective of the birthplace of the spire entrepreneurs, the number of Zhejiang businessmen was the first for four consecutive years, followed by Guangdong businessmen, Suzhou businessmen, and Fujian businessmen.
Finally, let's take a look at the top 100 spire entrepreneurs:
