        视频文本: MCDONELL: It’s Friday night in Beijing and the rich young things have come out to play. In the 1970s you could be killed here by a mob for showing outward displays of wealth. Now barely-legal drivers can be seen behind the wheels of $600,000 sports cars.
        Within ten years half the world’s billionaires will come from China and tonight we go inside their world. While other countries are in panic mode over their stagnant economies, here they’re making money and they’re flaunting it. Wealthy people in China love their private clubs and the young rich are no different. To be a member of this establishment there’s a simple requirement – all you have to do is own a Porsche 911 or something even flashier. This is the Beijing Sports Car Club in Chaoyang’s bar district.
        The night we visit is a kind of decadent palace theme party. The members are mostly 20-something year old men and the “young maidens” well they just kind of appeared at one stage. Chinese people refer to those moving in these circles as the “fu er dai” – the children of those who got rich when China suddenly opened up in the 1980s. Whether it’s fair or not, they’re seen as the first generation who’ve known nothing but wealth their entire short lives.
        Across town their parents’ generation are living it up in their own way.
        RUPERT HOOGEWERF: “The millionaire level, which is say British pound millionaires, we estimate there’s 960,000 of them which has been growing at about 10% or more over the last 4 or 5 years. If you look at the billionaire level, US dollar billionaires, then we estimate there are 600 now”.
        MCDONELL: Rupert Hoogewerf makes his living by observing China’s mega-wealthy class to produce the Hurun Report rich list. Many Chinese people say their bosses have made it big on the back of corrupt deals following market reforms in the 1980s, but this self-styled wealth tracker says the country has become the number one in terms of what he says are “self-made” billionaires – what’s more they’re getting richer and richer.
        RUPERT HOOGEWERF: “I was with an entrepreneur last week who was explaining, that if all goes well, within ten years time he’s going to be 10 times the size he is today. Now, of course, there is an element of ‘I want to challenge myself’ as well but certainly these people we need to be aware of them and we need to understand this group”.

        MCDONELL: According to the Hurun report’s research, the typical Chinese billionaire is a 51 year old man. His child is just out of university. He lives in Beijing.
        The typical millionaire is only 41 years old, lives in Shanghai, or nearby provinces, and is planning to send his 10 year old child to university in Australia, Canada, Britain or the United States.
        “These are the people who are going to rule the world aren’t they?”
        RUPERT HOOGEWERF: “Well they’re very young still and they’re growing very fast and so you look at the Bill Gates of this world who are well into their 60s and the Buffets who are well into their 80s even and these Chinese entrepreneurs are still in their 40s, possibly their 50s, well they’ve got another 30 years to go. Where are they going to end up?”
        MCDONELL: And according to this rich list the top way for these people to make money is real estate. This hotel has just been built in 14 days – yes you heard it right. Work went on around the clock and the seemingly unthinkable pace of construction was achieved by using pre-made steel frames which were placed in like massive blocks. So now, in the middle of nowhere in Central China’s Hunan Province, they have their own tower.
        “If I was standing in this exact location just two weeks ago I’d be on the ground surrounded by vegetable gardens. Now I’m on top of a 30 storey hotel and I’ve got to say it’s pretty surreal”. The man behind this project is the rather eccentric and very successful businessman Zhang Yue. With workers still putting the finishing touches on his high speed hotel, he’s already giving potential business partners a tour of the site.
        ZHANG YUE: “The process is like manufacturing vehicles. For a car, from making the components to assembling it, it will take around two months – but it will only take one day to put it together”.
        MCDONELL: Zhang Yue is marketing this as a cheap and he says eco friendly alternative to traditional building methods.
        ZHANG YUE: “When we see a construction site it’s so dirty – but on our site it’s clean. There’s no dust, no waste water, no flames, no welding, no smoke”.
