DeepSeek founder Liang Wenfeng enters China's top 10 richest, analyst sees 2027 top-1 odds
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-10-28
Per the Hurun Rich List, DeepSeek founder Liang Wenfeng is now among China's ten richest people, with tech wealth (semis, AI, clean tech) surging while mainland real estate has fallen from a third of the top 100 a decade ago to zero.
teortaxesTex argues the bigger story is Liang's odds of reaching global No.1 by end of 2027, citing his 200% short-term growth plus commitment to controlling over 50% of DeepSeek's stock; he sees top-3 as nearly guaranteed.
