42% of China's wealthy people have never gone to college
Although Gree's eldest sister Dong once warned us:
Young people looking for a job should not put money first.
But it must be said realistically:
Money, who doesn't love it?!
So, the next question is especially important for young people, and that is:
Which university do you go to and are most likely to become rich?!
Today, Hurun released the 2023 Hurun Alumni Association List——
Which university has the richest people?!Which university has the richest people?!
Without further ado, let's go straight to the picture!
Which university has the most rich people?!
Tsinghua University and Zhejiang University tied for the first place, each with 32 rich alumni on the list;
Tsinghua's representative alumni are Wang Xing from Meituan, Xu Hang from Mindray Medical, and Yu Renrong from Weir Shares;
The representative alumni of Zhejiang University are Huang Zheng of Pinduoduo, Shi Yuzhu of Giant Network, and Yi Zheng of Straight Flush.
There are 22 alumni of Peking University on the list, and the alumni are Robin Li of Baidu and Li Bin of Weilai.
The representative alumni of Shanghai Jiaotong University is Zeng Yuqun of CATL, and the representative alumni of Wuhan University is Lei Jun of Xiaomi.
Netizens joked: Since Lei Jun donated 1.3 billion yuan to Wuhan University, other universities are waiting!
In addition to the above TOP5, 16 alumni of Renmin University and South China University of Technology each made the list, tied for sixth;
Unexpectedly, in Guangdong, CUHK is very strong, but there are many rich Chinese workers.
In addition, Tsinghua University and Zhejiang University have the most wealthy alumni, but they are not the richest.
The richest are the alumni of Shanghai Jiaotong University, with a total wealth of 645.9 billion yuan, ranking first.
And our five richest people in 2023:
fifth, Zhang Yiming of ByteDance, is Nankai University;
fourth place, Zeng Yuqun of CATL graduated from Shanghai Jiaotong University with a bachelor's degree;
third place, Huang Zheng of Pinduoduo graduated from Zhejiang University with a bachelor's degree;
second place, Tencent's Ma Huateng graduated from Shenzhen University with a bachelor's degree;
And the richest man on the 2023 Hurun Report, Nongfu Spring's Zhong Sui is from the "Social University".
You read that right, the richest man in China in 2023 did not go to college.
When Zhong was a child, his family was poor, and he was forced to drop out of school before graduating from primary school.
In 1977, the college entrance examination resumed, and Zhong Yu failed to take the college entrance examination twice, and finally had to go to the University of Electricity to Xi.
Therefore, Zhong did not go to college.
But he made Nongfu Spring a Fortune 500 company in the world and made himself the richest man in China.

In addition to Zhong's eyes, there is an even more shocking fact:
On the 2023 Hurun Report, 42% of entrepreneurs are from "social universities".
2 of them entered the top 10, Zhong Sui became the champion of the "Social University", and the eye of the list is the beautiful He Xiangjian.

A more critical point is here: among the entrepreneurs of the "Social University", they are engaged in the real estate industry the most, including Lee Shau-kee of Hong Kong Henderson Development and Kwong Xiaoqing of Sun Hung Kai;
The second most is the food industry, including Xu Shihui of Dali Foods, Cai Yanming of Want Want, etc.;
The third is the chemical industry, including Xu Wenlong of Chimei and Liao Longxing of Changchun.
Does this also show to a certain extent that engaging in these industries does not require a high professional and technical threshold? !
In any case, according to this weight, in a certain sense, the universities that "produce" the most rich people are actually "social universities".
Thinking about it, it is not difficult to understand that the average age of the entrepreneurs on the list of "Social University" is 62 years old, which is equivalent to being born in 1961.
In their era, academic qualifications were not the most important, but the courage to dare to go to the sea to seek business opportunities and win wealth was the most important.
After all, in those days, everything was just beginning, and there were needs and opportunities everywhere.
Wang Jianlin said: Tsinghua University and Peking University are not as bold as being bold.
Later, especially after 2010, the rise of mobile Internet and the importance of academic qualifications began to increase.
It is not difficult to see that entrepreneurs who have risen at this stage, such as Ma Huateng, Liu Qiangdong, Ding Lei, etc., have graduated from prestigious schools as standard.
But in the future, it may be difficult to say.
In this era when everyone is undergraduate, education is still a person's gold plate, but the gold content may not be as high as before.
Academic qualifications, how much can be added to a person's career path, is not judged.
Again, there is no great enterprise, only the enterprise of the times.
Each of us may be just ordinary people who are carried forward by the torrent of the times.
What do you think of Hurun's rich alumni list?!
