Chapter 947

"Editor in chief, this is the preliminary edition of the world's top 500 in 1995. Please review it!" a responsible editor in chief of Fortune magazine in distant America handed a thick list to the editor in chief of the magazine.

Fortune magazine is one of the world's famous financial magazines, and the most famous of this magazine is the global ranking of the world's top 500 published by them every year. For countless enterprises, it is almost their lifelong dream and goal to be on the list of the world's top 500.

With the passing of 1995, the time came to March 1996. At this time, most listed companies have published their annual reports, which is the time for fortune magazine to start preparing for the ranking of the world's top 500 in 1995.

At this moment, the preliminary version of the list has been completed and handed over by the responsible editor to the chief editor for review. Because this list is the most important sign of Fortune magazine, and it also relates to countless well-known enterprises all over the world. If you make a mistake in the ranking of an enterprise, you will get the anger of a business giant.

Therefore, the editor in chief is very cautious in reviewing the list almost one by one.

"The first place is still the same. Fuso Mitsubishi company has an annual sales volume of 175.835 billion US dollars!"

"The second is Fusang Mitsui Co., Ltd., with annual sales of 171.490 billion US dollars"

The third place is Fuso Itochu, with sales of 1678.24 trillion US dollars

The fourth is Fuso Sumitomo company

The fifth is general motors of the United States

The sixth place is Fusang Marubeni company

No. 7 is Ford Motor Company of the United States

No. 8 is Exxon

The ninth is Iwai company

The 10th place is Royal Dutch Shell Group

The 11th place is Toyota Motor Company

The 12th place is Wal Mart stores, with a total revenue of 83.412 billion US dollars.

……

The 207th is Huaxia Bank, with a total revenue of US $15.288 billion.

For the name of Huaxia Bank, the editor in chief just glanced over and didn't care at all.

No. 209, Huaxia chemical group, with a total revenue of USD 14.981 billion

No. 409, Pacific Telecom Group, with a total revenue of US $9.494 billion

No. 432, Panzhihua Iron and Steel Co., Ltd., with a total revenue of USD 9.064 billion

No. 456, PetroChina, with a total revenue of US $8.511 billion

No. 489, bay power company, with a total revenue of USD 8.035 billion.

I believe you can see that in addition to the top 12, the six enterprises listed later are all Chinese enterprises that have been listed in the world's top 500, and this was also the six strongest enterprises in China in 1995.

Once upon a time, it was one of the fragmentary thoughts of all Chinese people to have more than a few of the world's top 500 enterprises and companies. However, in 2019, after 129 enterprises in China landed in the world's top 500, Chinese people didn't think much of the world's top 500.

However, a careful analysis of the list of the world's top 500 in 1995 will find a very frightening fact, that is, Fusang enterprises actually ranked first to fourth, and in the top 10, 6 enterprises are Fusang enterprises. In the whole list, the number of Fusang enterprises is more frightening than that of China in 2019, reaching 212 enterprises, Almost half of the world's top 500 list.

I believe this is greatly beyond everyone's expectation. In everyone's expectation, among the world's top 500, the United States must be the largest company, and Fusang is the second. In fact, Fusang occupies half of the list.

At the peak of Fusang, the total economic volume of Fusang once approached the United States. Some extreme right-wing Fusang people even shouted the slogan of economic humiliation, in a vain attempt to recapture the humiliation and failure suffered in World War II.

This is what makes Fusang very proud. After the emergence of the world's top 500 list every year, Fusang people's news media will have a collective climax to show how strong Fusang people's economic strength is.

"Hey, these false numbers!!" the editor in chief of Fortune magazine sighed and shook his head when he saw the names of so many Fusang enterprises.

When others saw the names of so many Fusang enterprises, they thought Fusang was the first in the world, but the editor in chief knew very well that this list was just an illusion.

It's not that the figures on this list are false. Although it's impossible for the figures on the list to be completely true, after all, there are many enterprises that are not listed and publish financial reports on the list, so these data can only be estimated based on various data.

But this is definitely the result of the efforts of the whole fortune magazine for a year to collect various data and calculations. In terms of data, the editor in chief can run with his chest and achieve the best they can. They don't report figures without conscience.

But this does not mean that this list represents the real world top 500. The simplest truth is that you can't see * * * * and Rothschild on this list.

Fusang enterprises like to stick together. They like to combine their own strength, and then many companies conduct mutual financing and cross holding, and then merge into a huge new enterprise.

This is why there are so many enterprises in Fusang listed in the world's top 500. Many of the enterprises listed on the list were merged by several companies.

But American companies are different. American consortia like to hide themselves from the outside. These consortia like to split their enterprises or diversify their funds. In a word, they like to break up into parts.

Although the names of some consortia do not appear on the list of the world's top 500, half of the enterprises on this list are actually firmly controlled by the shares of these consortia.

Even Mitsubishi group, which ranks first, has more than 60% of its shares in the hands of the American people. The American leaders play behind the scenes. People don't care to show up. It's too hateful to be on the list of the world's top 500.

After all, everyone in the United States has a gun. If anyone wants to be different one day and shoot it, no matter how many billions you have, it's a bullet reimbursement.

In short, this list can not really show the world's economic territory, but at least in terms of the strength of each company, this list is true.

"Let me see who is the lucky one this year!" the editor in chief turned his eyes to the last name, that is, the 500th.

The editors of Fortune magazine like to call the 500th enterprise lucky because they are so lucky that they have just boarded the list of the world's top 500 and become a company attracting worldwide attention. What a lucky thing.

Like sun Shan, although sun Shan is the last one, all Chinese know his name, and he doesn't lose.

"Daqian group, a Chinese enterprise!" seeing the name, the editor in chief's eyebrows jumped, and then the responsible editor in front of him said, "you ranked last?"

"No, it was added by Michael, the editor who joined the company last year!" the responsible editor said quickly.
