The youngest billionaire in Asia Wang Zelong is in the top 10 of the list of young rich people in the world version Forbes in 2021. It ranks second after Kevin David Lehmann.
So what about Wang’s profile? Here is the review.
Launching the South China Morning Post, Monday (25/4), Wang has assets of US $ 1.5 billion or equivalent to Rp. 21.67 trillion (exchange rate of Rp. 14,450 per US dollar). His wealth comes from holding shares in two companies, namely CNNC Hua Yuan Titanium Dioxide Co. and Lomon Billions Group.
Wang is the only young rich person from Asia on the Forbes list. In addition, he is also not like other rich young people who usually work in technology.
Wang actually made a fortune because of the business of titanium dioxide, a white pigment usually used for coatings, plastics and inks.
Despite being rich, Wang is said to be humble and prefers a very private life. Reportedly, he does not have official social media.
Many people don’t even know that he is from Jiaozuo, Henan Province in China. You could say Jiaozuo is a small town because of its small population.
By comparison, Beijing has 16 times the population of Jiaozuo. Meanwhile, Shanghai has 20 times the population of this city.
