This absurd account neglects the fact that Li was already one of the world’s wealthiest people before he ever invested in China. Perhaps more important, it fails to recognize that Li’s Chinese land holdings still amount to more than 20 million square meters (215 million square feet) – nearly a quarter of the size of Manhattan – and that the number of retail outlets he owns in China has increased by 70% in two years.
这种荒谬的说法忽略了一个事实，即李嘉诚在投资中国前就已经栖身世界首富之列。或许更重要的是，它未能意识到李在中国的土地储备仍然高达2，000万平方米（2.15亿平方英尺）——几乎是曼哈顿面积的四分之一——而且他在中国拥有的零售渠道数量在两年内增长了70%。
