Jeff Bezos, the richest man in the world. Amazon founder Bezos has 170 billion U.S. dollars in assets. China is the only market he could not conquer. Amazon eventually withdrew its Chinese business in 2019 after being pushed out by Chinese native companies such as Alibaba and Zhingdung.com. But Bezos had a daughter that he had hoped so much for on Chinese soil.
In 2006, when Chinese e-commerce began to flourish. Jeff Bezos steps on Chinese soil for the first time. At that time, his trip to China was not for business purposes, but for the adoption of his daughter. At that time, Bezos had three sons between his ex-wife Mackenzie, who divorced in 2019. The Bezos, who were "son-rich," wanted a daughter and began to consider adoption after being introduced by an acquaintance.
The Bezos adopted a girl from Hunan province with a beautiful smile as their daughter. As soon as he was born, he was abandoned by his parents. A child adopted by a strange American family grew up with three brothers. The new parents and brothers gave their children generous love and the child from China became a Chinese teacher for the Bezos family.
He was a strict Bezos to his son, but a caring father to his daughter. It is also said that he bought a small island only for his daughter and made it available for use during vacation. That's not all I cared about. Through the Western style of education, she was brought up as an independent child.
About 14 years have passed and Bezos has overtaken Bill Gates to become the richest man in the world after years of standing. Under U.S. law, adoptees can also inherit their heritage. Netizens now assume that the legacy of Bezos will be worth 34 trillion won each for four children.
China was once one of the largest senders of adoptions to the United States. Statistics show that as of 1992, about 100,000 Chinese children have been adopted by American families so far. Numerous abandoned children boarded flights to the United States in 1992 when a foreign national allowed them to adopt a Chinese child.
In China, a large population, there were many abandoned girls due to birth control policies and male preference. This is why the proportion of girls from China was high among adoptees. Compared to other countries, the adoption process was simpler and the cost was relatively low.
Many U.S. celebrities, including actors and politicians, adopt and raise Chinese children. For example, Hollywood actor McLion adopted a Chinese girl in 2006 and raised her with love.
