To say that this year's most proud entrepreneur, presumably many people will first think of Is Musk, in September this year, its value exceeded 1.27 trillion, and even after that once exceeded 1.91 trillion, ranking the world's richest man, but surprisingly in 1 and a half months, its value shrank by 310 billion, why is this?
According to the relevant information, Tesla's stock price hit a peak value on November 4 this year, once as high as 7920 yuan, but such a high value did not last long, or even took a sharp turn, by December 21 this year, its stock price has dropped to 5644 yuan.
In the process of Tesla's stock price decline, Musk's personal wealth is also decreasing, the current value is only 1.6 trillion, compared with the peak value of the year, its value is equivalent to a direct reduction of 310 billion, and the reason for this situation is actually because of Musk's personal behavior.
People who are more concerned about Musk should know that he has been selling stocks to cash out since November 8 this year, and even in just one week, his cash amount has reached about 43.9 billion, and due to his large-scale sell-off and cash-out behavior, Tesla's stock price has been greatly affected, and it has fallen by 2.8% in one day.
Musk is the main person in charge of Tesla, with the company's stock price fell, its value will naturally have an impact, but Musk did not show too much concern about this, because even if the value of 310 billion yuan shrunk, he is still the world's richest man.
So why is it that in the case of a large decline in value, Musk's position as the richest man is still not moving?
In fact, the main reason behind this is also because the new energy automobile industry has gradually become a new favorite of the market, and its development prospects are also optimistic about the market, such as BYD's founder Wang Chuanfu, who relies on the support of the market, in just 2 years, its value has risen by 104 billion, and the current value is as high as 145.8 billion, pressing Xu Jiayin and becoming the new richest man in Guangzhou.
That being the case, Tesla, as the leader in electric vehicles, can naturally get a lot of benefits from it, during 2020, its revenue has exceeded 200 billion, even if Tesla's stock price is falling now, Musk's value has shrunk, but it is only a temporary consequence caused by personal behavior.
That Musk in the case of high value itself, even if it shrinks, its value is still as high as 1.6 trillion, such a high value is not the average rich can compete with it, and it is worth noting that Musk can have such wealth, the contribution of Chinese consumers can not be ignored.
During August this year, Tesla sold a total of 44,264 cars, an increase of 275% compared with the same period last year, and by August this year, it sold more than 250,000 cars, of which Chinese consumers contributed 152531 to it, accounting for 60% of total sales.
Therefore, based on this set of data, it is no exaggeration to say that the wealth musk now has is to a certain extent inseparable from the support of the Chinese market.
The public must not underestimate the 1.6 trillion yuan worth after Musk's shrinkage, to know that the public is familiar with Ma Yun, now its value is only 300 billion, which is equivalent to Musk's wealth is more than 5 times that of Ma Yun.
Not only that, China's current richest man Zhong Jing is only worth about 390 billion, which also means that Musk is equivalent to 4 of China's richest men, so we can also see how big Musk's wealth is, and what is more surprising is that Musk also said on December 20 this year that he will pay more than 70.2 billion yuan in taxes this year.
What is this concept? To know that the gross profit margin of 93% of Moutai, its annual tax payment is only 41.6 billion, then Musk's tax payment is about 30 billion more than Moutai, if this tax payment is really true, it will also refresh the US tax record so far.
Musk is also well aware of the importance of the Chinese market to him, and in August this year, the super factory he built in Shanghai was already in full production, and Musk also made it clear that he would increase investment in China in the future.
Tesla is also currently expanding and transforming the Shanghai Gigafactory, which will add 4,000 employees, which can be seen that Musk also hopes to continue to use the Chinese market to get more benefits in the future, but how long will Tesla, which has frequent problems in recent years, maintain its glory?
