Hoàng Kiều thật (Bích Khê, Quảng Trị) có thể
đã chết?

Tại Hoa Kỳ nhân công
chỉ làm 40 giờ một tuần tức là việc làm full time, như Hoàng Kiều
khai với lương $1.25/giờ x 40/ giờ = $50/tuần. Như thế một tháng chỉ được
$200.00, thời giá 1975. Cho đến 1980 lương nhân công chỉ tăng tới $2.35
hay $2.75 mà thôi và cho tới năm 1985, tức là 10 năm sau, lương công nhân
chỉ có $3.75 -$4.00 mà thôi.
Sau khi trừ thuế và
bảo hiểm sẽ còn lại tối đa là $150.00.
Cho rằng Hoàng Kiều
làm thí mạng một tuần 80 tiếng. Tiền mang về từ $400-$500 mổi tháng
là tối đa, vị chi khoảng $6,000.00 cho đến $8,000.00 một năm. Chưa tính
tiền ăn, tiền xăng, tiền mướn nhà, tiền quần áo tiền điện, tiền
nước và những thứ linh tinh khác, ở đây chưa tính tới tiền thuế cuối
năm cùng tiền thuốc và bác sĩ. Với bao nhiêu miệng ăn? Liệu Hoàng
Kiều ăn mì gói trong 10 năm liền? Hay ăn gió? Sinh hoạt vật giá tại
California không rẻ, đồng bào sống tại California rỏ hơn chúng tôi.
Như thế trong vòng 10
năm liệu Hoàng Kiều có thể có dư đến $80,000.00 để đầu tư vào công ty
RAAS? Để trở thành triệu phú rồi tỷ phú như hiện nay? Bill Gate phải
mất ít nhất là 20 năm vất vả viết program và đấu trí với IBM mới
có thể trở thành tỷ phú. Thế nhưng Hoàng Kiều chỉ trong vòng ngắn
hạn 10 năm đã trở thành người giàu như hiện nay. Nguồn tiền nào đã
cung cấp cho Hoàng Kiều trở thành tỷ phú như hiện nay? Còn nửa, “chief
combat interpreter” trong U.S. Special Force? Hình như chúng tôi chưa bao
giờ nghe đến từ ngữ nầy trong lực lượng đặc biệt của Hoa Kỳ, U.S.
5th Special Force. Có chiến hửu nào nghe nói đến chưa? Tôi thì chưa, đây
là lần đầu tiên nghe nói đến.
Đầu tư tại Hoa Kỳ
không dễ dàng như chúng ta lập ra một gánh phở tại Việt Nam, hay một
thúng sôi vò bên vĩa hè cạnh trường học, hay một thúng hột vịt lộn
nóng vùi trong thúng trấu bán bên một quán cốc vệ đường. Nó đòi
hỏi một hệ thống pháp lý nhiêu khê. Ai đã đứng sau lưng chi phí cho
tất cả những khoảng tài chánh cần thiết bảo đảm cho cuộc kinh doanh
nầy? Chúng tôi chỉ đặt vấn đề đến đây thôi vì có lẻ bây giờ mọi
người đã có câu trả lời, hỏi tức là trả lời.

Kieu Hoang came to the U.S when he was 32 years old
and worked a fulltime job that paid just $1.25 an hour. Throughout the years,
he worked hard to learn the rope and eventually found two extremely successful
health companies. He has earned him a spot on The Forbes 400 with a net worth
of $3.8 billion.
Ten months after Kieu Hoang Winery held its grand
opening in November with Chinese actress Li Bing Bing in attendance, the Napa
winery held its first wine-pairing dinner at upscale Vietnamese restaurant Le
Colonial in San Francisco.
Seventy-one year old Kieu Hoang, the winery’s new
billionaire owner, was absent. His son Tommy Hoang explained to guests that
business had called Hoang to Shanghai, conveying his father’s regret at missing
the dinner. “He’s out there hustling to make things happen,” the younger Hoang
said.
Kieu Hoang has a long history of “hustling.” The
dinner–at which well-dressed guests drank wine with Hoang’s face printed on
each bottle–was a stark contrast to Hoang’s early years in rural Vietnam, and
his first years in the United States after immigrating at the end of the
Vietnam War.
Now, after founding two successful blood plasma
companies, RAAS and Shanghai RAAS, Hoang has earned a spot on The Forbes 400
for the first time. He’s ranked No. 149 with a net worth of $3.8 billion –and
he’s the richest newcomer on the list.
The bulk of Hoang’s wealth comes from his stake in
publicly-traded Shanghai RAAS, which he founded in 1992, after partnering with
the Shanghai Blood Center in 1987.
With $214 million in sales and an eye-popping $17.7
billion market capitalization, the company was ranked 20th on Forbes Most
Innovative Companies list and appeared on Forbes’ Asia’s 200 Best Under A
Billion in 2015. Hoang owns 35% of the Shezhen-listed company, and his wealth
has more than tripled in the past year along with the company’s rise in value.
The rest of Hoang’s wealth is in Agoura Hills,
Calif.-based Rare Antibody Antigen Supply (RAAS), which he founded in 1985, and
the winery he purchased and opened last year.
Hoang was born in 1944 in the village of Bich Khe in
Quang Tri Province in Vietnam. His early childhood was spent barefoot and
shirtless, with a machete in hand to chop down small trees for his mother.
“Life was very difficult in those years,” Hoang remembers.
It got easier when Hoang moved to Saigon at the age of
five to live with his uncle, Hoang Thi, a renowned Vietnamese composer. His
uncle helped Hoang through school, and Hoang studied science at a university
for one year before the Vietnam War began. Having reached the draft age, Hoang
joined the U.S. Special Forces? as the “chief combat interpreter.”? That
experience, Hoang says, gave him the self-reliance that would carry him through
many of the other challenges in life—including building a plant for Shanghai
RAAS in the early 1990’s with little to no mechanical equipment.
In 1975, as the Vietnam war was about to end, Hoang
immigrated to the United States, after helping his family and other Vietnamese
refugees escape the country. “I worked with the ministry of the interior to get
visas for people to leave the country,” Hoang remembers. He was 32.
Starting over in the United States wasn’t easy for
Hoang’s family. Upon arrival, Hoang says the family was sponsored by the
Westlake Village Women’s Club and the United Methodist Church of Westlake
Village — a town in southern California near Los Angeles.
A church member who worked at Abbott Laboratories
interviewed Hoang for an entry-level job. While he knew he didn’t have the
necessary skills, Hoang confidently told his interviewer: “With my intelligence
I will be able to learn.” He got the job (which paid $1.25 an hour) on his
birthday and started work two days later. He commuted to work on a donated 50cc
motorcycle. “We got through and we got by,” Hoang remembers.
Over the next couple years, Hoang climbed the ranks at
Abbott. He was promoted to supervisor after six months, and then manager six
months after that. Finally, he reached the top of the company, becoming the
director responsible for testing plasma samples. “I’m proud to say I got the
first Bureau of Biology [early FDA] license for doing testing on plasma samples
for Abbott labs,” Hoang says. With this approval, Hoang began testing for
Hepatitis B at Abbott.
By the end of the 1970’s, Hoang began thinking about
next steps. The best advice he received from a mentor: “Don’t sell your
knowledge cheap.” Armed with his plasma-testing experience, Hoang decided to
found his own blood plasma company—Rare Antibody Antigen Supply Inc—and began
acquiring blood plasma centers. By 1985, Hoang says he had 11 centers spread
across the United States.
