This information has been given in the Hurun Global Rich List released by Shanghai-based research organization Hurun Report on Thursday.
According to the report, 287 new billionaires have been added to China in the last one year, due to which it has reached the first place in this list.

Most of the new billionaires of China are associated with industrial products, semiconductor, healthcare and energy sectors.

It has also been told in the report that Artificial Intelligence has played a big role in the new billionaires created in China. For example, Yan Junjie of AI startup MiniMax has joined the list of billionaires with a net worth of about $3.6 billion. The founder of AI company Zhipu AI has also joined this list with a net worth of about $1.2 billion.
Globally, 114 new billionaires have been created due to the AI sector, out of which 46 have joined this list for the first time.
