Hurun said: "For the first time in the real estate industry, no entrepreneur has entered the top ten. ”
From the perspective of the decline in wealth, the biggest decline this year is Zhang Bangxin, a 40-year-old off-campus training institution, down 94% (nearly 90 billion) to 5.7 billion yuan.

According to the trend of these two years, next year Shanghai should surpass Shenzhen for the first time in ten years. ”
This year, for the first time, it covered 197 entrepreneurs from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, including 106 from Taiwan, 89 from Hong Kong and 2 from Macao. With only 13 people in the top 100, 93-year-old Li Ka-shing is eighth with a fortune of 215 billion yuan. "There are fewer Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan entrepreneurs on the list than I originally thought, and if our list of the 100 richest people covered Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan entrepreneurs more than ten or twenty years ago, we would not have seen mainland entrepreneurs in the top ten."
The share of women entrepreneurs rebounded to 26 percent from 24.9 percent last year, with 60 percent of them self-made. Yang Huiyan was the richest woman in China.

Lee Kum Kee's Lee Choi Mei Ling family is the only one on our 100 rich list with a wealth of 120 billion. Wealth inheritance is a topic that many Chinese entrepreneurs have been paying a lot of attention to recently, and I predict that within 20 years, we will have more than 10 trillion yuan of wealth from the entrepreneurs on the list that will be passed on to the next generation. ”
Entrepreneurs who have died in the past year: 002174 Lynch, 39, Zuo Hui, 50, Offic, Yangzijiang Pharmaceutical, 77, and Li Wenda, 92, of Li Kum Kee.

Hurun Research Institute, which provides quality lists and research, is released
《2021 Hurun Rich List》
(October 27, 2021, Chengdu, Sichuan) Hurun Research Institute and high-end sauce liquor brand Hengchang Yaofang today jointly released the "2021 Hurun Hundred Rich List" (HENGCHANGSHAOFANG · Hurun China Rich List 2021)。 This year is the 23rd consecutive release of the "Hurun Rich List" by the Hurun Research Institute since 1999, and the threshold for inclusion in the list has remained 2 billion yuan for the ninth consecutive year. The deadline for calculating the wealth of entrepreneurs on the list is September 15, 2021.
A total of 2,918 entrepreneurs made the list, of which 2,643 lived in Chinese mainland (distributed in 178 cities), 241 lived in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan (151 in Hong Kong, 87 in Taiwan, 3 in Macau), and 34 lived outside Of China (19 in the United States, 12 in Singapore, 2 in the United Kingdom, and 1 in Canada). The total wealth of the entrepreneurs on the list increased by 24% over last year to 34 trillion. The wealth of 1,748 entrepreneurs increased from last year, including 838 newcomers. The wealth of 1,488 entrepreneurs has shrunk or remained unchanged from last year, with 318 falling out this year. Manufacturing, big health, real estate, chemicals and financial investment are the top five sources of wealth for entrepreneurs on the list. The top three cities with the highest concentration of entrepreneurs on the list are Beijing, Shenzhen and Shanghai, followed by Hangzhou, Hong Kong and Guangzhou. The average age is 56, one year older than last year.
The Nasdaq Composite index rose 30% from the same period last year, while the Shanghai Composite Index and the Shenzhen Composite Index rose 7.4% and 5% respectively. The Hang Seng Index fell slightly by 1.5%. The renminbi fell 5.3% against the US dollar compared to the same period last year.
HuRun, chairman and chief research officer of Hurun Report, said: "The number of people on the list of the richest people and the total wealth increased by more than 20% compared with last year, mainly due to the rapid growth of new energy-related industries and the large number of new listed companies. Another reason is that we have added Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan entrepreneurs this year, but there are only about 200 of them, which has little impact. ”
"20 years more than 100 times. After the reform and opening up, China's economy has grown rapidly, and the speed of wealth creation has accelerated, especially in the past 20 years, only 19 entrepreneurs have a wealth of more than 2 billion yuan 20 years ago, and now it is more than 100 times, nearly 3,000 people. Following recent trends, I predict that in ten years' time the number of entrepreneurs on the list of the richest people should reach more than 5,000. ”
"We can see from our list of the richest people that the structure and scale of Wealth Creation in China have changed very quickly in recent years, and half of the nearly 3,000 entrepreneurs on the list this year were not listed five years ago. Twenty years ago, the threshold for the top ten was only 3.5 billion, and entrepreneurs engaged in agriculture ranked high, and none of the top ten at that time are still in the top ten. Ten years ago, the threshold of the top ten rose to 36 billion, an increase of more than ten times, and the proportion of entrepreneurs engaged in real estate was relatively high, and only He Xiangjian was still in the top ten at that time. Five years ago, the threshold for the top ten doubled to 78 billion, the proportion of entrepreneurs engaged in the Internet rose, and the top ten at that time are still in the top ten. This year's top ten threshold is 193 billion, and the proportion of entrepreneurs engaged in new energy-related industries has risen. ”
"To the surprise of many people, in the era of science and technology in the 21st century, China's richest man is the water seller. Hangzhou-based Zhong has two companies worth more than $10 billion: Nongfu Spring and Cervical Cancer Vaccine Manufacturer Wantai Biotech. ”
"In the more than two decades since the establishment of the Hurun Report, only Ding Lei, Chen Tianqiao and Huang Guangyu can enter the top three of the 30-year-old entrepreneurs, and Zhang Yiming is the fourth, and at present, Zhang Yiming is very likely to become the next richest man in China, especially if the listing is successful."
"Driven by the carbon-neutral '3060' goal, the new energy-related industries have grown rapidly this year; the semiconductor industry has grown driven by the demand for smart cars and mobile phones; the biotechnology industry has grown under the epidemic; and the sports-related industries will grow under the influence of the Beijing Winter Olympics." Among the top 10 entrepreneurs with the most wealth growth this year, 8 are related to new energy, mainly electric vehicles, 6 are mainly electric vehicles, including 2 photovoltaics, and the other 2 are engaged in the entertainment industry. Compared with the outbreak of the new crown epidemic two years ago, the health, chemical and food and beverage industries have grown faster. ”
"The impact of antitrust can be seen from the list of the richest people, as well as the decline in the real estate, education, pork and gaming industries this year. Evergrande Xu Jiayin's wealth, which is deeply in debt crisis, fell by more than 160 billion to 73 billion yuan from last year, and the wealth of Wang Wenwen of Huaxia Happiness (600340, share bar) fell by more than 40 billion to 6 billion yuan from last year. Under the background of the burden reduction policy, the wealth of Zhang Bangxin in the good future shrank by nearly 90 billion to 5.7 billion, the wealth of Yu Minhong of New Oriental shrank by nearly 20 billion to 7.5 billion, and The wealth of Chen Xiangdong of Gaotu Education last year was 80 billion yuan and fell on the list this year. The wealth of the Liu Yonghao family of New Hope shrank by more than 50 billion to 105 billion, and the wealth of Makihara Qin Yinglin and Qian Ying shrank by 30 billion to 170 billion. Ma Huateng's wealth fell by more than 70 billion yuan from last year, down two places to fourth. ”
"The average Chinese entrepreneur was born in 1965, started a business in 1994 (aged 29), and was listed for the first time in 2012 (aged 47), 56 years old this year, with a wealth of 12 billion."
"To measure the value created by an entrepreneur, the first thing is that the products and services of his business are in place, and the founder also has to meet other stakeholders, including creating value for other shareholders. The first two are difficult to calculate, we only counted the value created by the founders for other shareholders, and found that the 22 founders all created more than 200 billion of value for other shareholders. ”
"From our 18-year Hurun Charity List, we can see that the amount of donations from Chinese entrepreneurs is growing, and they are constantly exploring and innovating philanthropic models, and paying more and more attention to the sustainable development of philanthropy." Wealth has been created so much in recent years that in the coming years we will see more large-scale philanthropy through donations and charitable trusts. ”
"In China, a large part of the brands that people commonly use are created by the entrepreneurs on the list, whether it is service brands such as WeChat, Alipay, etc., or physical product brands, such as Nongfu Spring, Midea, etc."
"Many Chinese companies are behind-the-scenes heroes, such as NINGDE Times (300750, share bar) serving China's new energy automobile industry, and Hengli serving the textile industry."
"From the perspective of business gangs, the most entrepreneurs on the list have always been Zhejiang businessmen and Cantonese businessmen, Zhejiang businessmen include Wen merchants and Yong merchants, and Cantonese businessmen include Chao merchants and Hakka merchants." The top three have one Zhejiang businessman and two Fujian businessmen. ”
"This year's list includes 14 entrepreneurs born outside of China and living in China, including four from Singapore, two from Indonesia and Denmark, and so on."
"We used to think that for every entrepreneur on the list, we should have missed two more, but now that percentage has decreased, and this year we have found nearly 3,000 people with more than 2 billion in wealth, and we think we have missed about 4,000 individuals."
"Xiaomi's Lei Jun, 360's (601360, share bar) Zhou Hongyi and TCL's Li Dongsheng, the three entrepreneurs on the list, have the fastest Weibo fans in the last year, all increasing by hundreds of thousands, with more than 23 million, more than 12 million and nearly 10 million fans, respectively."
"Hurun Report has been telling stories for entrepreneurs for more than 20 years, and our list of the richest people takes a snapshot of China's private entrepreneurs every year, and the stories of these entrepreneurs on the list are the stories of China's private economic development." I hope that our rich list can help entrepreneurs see some new wealth creation models and bring them some inspiration. We are pleased to cooperate with the high-end sauce liquor brand Hengchang Yaofang for the second consecutive year to release our list of the richest people. ”
"Hurun Report is committed to discovering corporate value and promoting entrepreneurship through quality lists and research. The main coverage of our list can be said to be from the 'cradle of wealth' to the 'paradise of wealth'. The 'Cradle of Wealth' is first of all the Most Wealthy Creativity Chinese Alumni Association, the role model of the alumni association is U30, the model of U30 is the 'Cheetah' enterprise, the model of the 'Cheetah' is the 'Gazelle' enterprise, the model of the 'Gazelle' is the 'Unicorn', the model of the 'Unicorn' is China's top 500, and the model of China's top 500 is the world's top 500. In this process, the entrepreneur himself went from the list of the richest people in the world to the list of the richest people in the world, and then to the charity list, etc., and finally completed the inheritance of wealth to the 'wealth paradise'. ”
Zhang Jiahao, President of Global Wine Group, said: Since the listing of Hengchang Brewing Workshop, with the vision of "quality, brand, scale and long-term", relying on the brand history of "Hengchang Roasting Workshop for a hundred years", as well as the mature operational strength of Global Winemaking Group, it has been sought after by channels and consumers. Hengchang Burner and Hurun Report, the world's leading wealth vane institution, jointly released the "2021 Hurun Rich List", which is a time when China's economy is facing internal and external changes and urgently needs to achieve transformation, a common prediction of the future transformation and upgrading of China's economy, and a new understanding of the new way of creating wealth for emerging entrepreneurs in the future. Hengchang Roasting Mill will continue to expand the scale of production in Moutai (600519) Town, and at the same time enter the sorghum planting industry, improve the quality and production capacity of Hengchang Roasting Workshop, and actively respond to the call of the state to revitalize rural economic development while ensuring the quality of its own winemaking.

Hurun said: "The proportion of people with the right to speak is declining, because it is not easy to be a deputy to the National People's Congress and a member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and because the number of our list of the richest people has been expanding." If you look at tens of billions of entrepreneurs, the proportion of people with the right to speak is higher, it is 7.6%, although it is still much lower than the 29% a decade ago. ”

Preparation methodology
The Hurun Institute collects all the public information of the candidates and cross-checks them repeatedly, using market value to assess the wealth owned by the entrepreneurs. Our sources of information are mainly through four channels: the first is stock market announcements, including domestic and Hong Kong main boards, growth enterprise markets, Singapore, NASDAQ, New York, Toronto, London and Sydney; the second is important media coverage; the third is field interviews, our team traveled across the country, interviewing entrepreneurs, journalists and local government agencies and participating in relevant seminars; the fourth is the effective information network and huge database that we have established across the country for more than two decades.
For the first time this year, the Hurun Rich List covers entrepreneurs from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. "Entrepreneurs on the list" include entrepreneurs born and raised in China, regardless of their current nationality or place of residence, as well as entrepreneurs born outside of China and living in China.
Companies like Tencent, Alibaba and ByteDance should have many employees who hold one-thousandth of the company's shares to be on the list, but there is no publicly disclosed information. There are some companies registered abroad, and it is difficult to find shares. There are also some individuals, such as collectors and shareholders, who are also difficult to find out their wealth.
The deadline for calculating the wealth of listed companies on the list is September 15, 2021, and the exchange ratio of US dollars to Renminbi is calculated at 1:6.4, and the exchange ratio of Hong Kong dollars to Renminbi is calculated according to 1:0.83. For 100 billion entrepreneurs, if the stock price of listed companies fluctuates greatly from September 15 to the pre-issuance of the list, their latest wealth figures will be announced.
