The year had almost ended. It was time for Qin Guan to close his accounts.
He had to make an evaluation of his total assets, so he arranged a short interview with the editor of "Forbes Asia" and sent a confirmation letter to "The Times".
That would be all the work he had to do at the threshold of 2006.
At the end of each year, "The Times" would typically select the 50 most beautiful ladies and 50 most handsome gentlemen from all over the world. It was not a strict selection, it was just meant to entertain the readers. The selection was based on looks, bearing, background and international influence.
It was a tradition of the magazine, as well as a good method to promote sales. All the editors put their hearts and souls into the project.
Qin Guan's employees were confident about their boss. They were sure that he would be one of the top 50 men considering his looks and achievements.
