How Li Ka-shing became Hong Kong's richest man

2018-03-16に共有
Li Ka-shing's story is one of rags-to-riches. Born in 1928 in Chaozhou in Southeastern China, he fled to Hong Kong with his family in 1940 during the second Sino-Japanese war.

He started out as an apprentice at a plastics factory and slowly worked his way up to be factory manager at just 18.

Li was the first Chinese to take over a British-backed conglomerate and today he has investments all over the world.

His fortune is worth US$35.3 billion. Turning 90 in July, he is retiring, handing the reins over to his son.

  • It just sounds like moving to either Hong Kong or Macau during the Japanese invasion just boosted your chance of being rich.
  • What this video doesn't tell you is that he dated and married the daughter of a wealthy manufacturer, hence became a factory boss at an impossible age
  • A Humble & Caring Man indeed! A Self~Made Billionaire through his own efforts! Stay Safe & Stay Humble! 🕯🌷🌿🌍

    A man with a keen eye for hard work and opportunity.

    He monopolised Hong Kong and made it expensive for everything. Flats, food, mobiles etc.. a real cancer of HK.
  • That’s the official story which is a lot of BS. He had a lot of eastern and western government backing and got a lot of sweet heart deals.
  • @raxg4396
    Yes.. he make many hongker hard to buy house now
  • Li Ka~Shing made it during very Tough Times in Hong Kong! 🌍 Hong Kong during British Rules had very limited land mass but many obstacles from all sides! 🕯

  • What about the part where he made large fourture in mainland china? He was working.closely with top offocals.

    He is not doing hk any favors. Hoarding the cash and keeping it in his empire. Thats the problem with really successful people, they wish they can keep it forever. One thing is certain, he would not be able to beat death.
