Careful observation shows that in recent years, China's richest people have changed by turns, and Wang Jianlin, Xu Jiayin, Ma Yun and Ma Hua Teng have taken turns to be the richest people. They all come from the real estate and Internet industries. In fact, in the last two decades, the Internet and real estate are the two most profitable fields, and many business tycoons have poured in. For example, Ma Yun saw the enthusiasm of e-commerce, took the lead in seizing the opportunity and founded Alibaba; As one of the earliest real estate enterprises in China, Wanda also made Wang Jianlin earn a lot of money.
But no matter what industry, there will be ceilings. After dividends, it will definitely reach saturation and will be constantly updated and eliminated. Take e-commerce as an example. At present, domestic e-commerce industry is divided into three parts. Ali, JD.COM and Pinduoduo occupy most of the market and have reached the saturation stage. Ma Yun predicted many years ago that the traditional e-commerce would be replaced by a new model, so he put forward the concept of "new retail". At present, the new retail industry has broad prospects and has attracted much attention. Another example is real estate. Wanda, which made its fortune in real estate, has now announced its withdrawal from the real estate industry.
Great health is a relatively broad concept. Different from the traditional medical and health industry, the big health industry generally refers to the medical and health industry including medical e-commerce, smart medical care, internet hospitals and internet medical care. Ma Yun once said: "The next richest man in China will be born in the big health industry", which is not empty talk. With the improvement of people's living standards, more and more people are no longer limited to eating and wearing warm clothes, but pay more attention to physical and mental health. People spend money on physical and mental maintenance, and there is a market when there is demand, which brings excellent development opportunities to the big health industry.
As the richest man today, in fact, Ma Yun has already entered the field of big health. 20 14, 14 10, Alibaba invested RMB 65,438 billion in citic 2 1 century, which is a company integrating computer software, network product technology and computer system. 20 14 10, CITIC 2 1 century officially changed its name to Ali Health, which became an important bargaining chip for Ma Yun to enter the big health industry. Over the years, Ali has developed rapidly and healthily. Self-operated medicine is its core business. Self-operated medicine is mainly Ali Health Pharmacy and Ali Health Flagship Store, and everyone should be familiar with it.
So, how much has Alibaba invested in the field of big health in recent years?
According to statistics, including Alibaba and its subsidiaries, Ali's investment in health has reached 40 billion yuan. At present, Alibaba's shareholding in Ali Health has reached 74%, becoming the absolute controlling party. It is reported that Ali Health has mastered the import of more than 50 billion medical machinery and health care products, and its market value has now exceeded HK$ 654.38+060 billion.
After Ma Yun laid out the big health field, Wang Jianlin followed closely. 2065438+In August 2007, Wanda revealed that a new group was established, named "Wanda Great Health Industry Group Co., Ltd.". 20 19 1, at the annual meeting of Wanda, Wang Jianlin proposed that Wanda would formally enter the health industry in an all-round way, and made it clear that Wanda Health would take the hospital as the core, integrate various industries such as medicine, health care, commerce and training, and take a new model of innovative health industry.
Wang Jianlin spent a lot of money this time. In order to lay out Wanda Health, the investment is144 billion. This is just an entrance. It's been two years now. As for how much money has been invested so far, Wanda has not announced it.
In addition to Ma Yun and Wang Jianlin, there are many bosses who follow up the big health field, such as Liu and Xu Jiayin, who all see the business opportunities inside. JD Health is also independent from JD.COM, with a valuation of about 45 billion RMB, and its business scope is similar to that of Ali Health.
As you can see now, this sudden epidemic has once again sounded the alarm for people and made them realize that they must take health problems seriously. The epidemic has caused a rapid impact on the domestic retail industry, but it is an excellent development opportunity for the big health industry. With the passage of time, the demand of consumers will continue to expand from masks to other health fields, and the big health industry is also optimistic!
How big is the current market and broad prospects in the field of big health?
According to the data released by Prospective Industry Research Institute, the big health industry in China is expected to break through the 10 trillion mark in 2020, and the national online retail sales in 20 19 is only 10.6 trillion RMB, which means that the big health industry is almost equal to the online retail sales.
As we all know, e-commerce has made Ma Yun, Liu, and other rich people, and now the scale of the big health industry has reached the level of e-commerce, which means that many super-rich people are likely to be born in the big health industry in the future, so Ma Yun said that the next richest man was born in the big health field, which is completely achievable!
