Reading guide
While researching the IP industry, Robin notes Pop Mart’s market capitalization of around HK$285.5 billion, approximately NT$1.15 trillion—comparable to Quanta and above ASE, Chunghwa Telecom, and Cathay Financial. Its P/E is about 38, falling to an estimated 26–32 if growth is factored in. He leaves readers to judge the valuation but stresses that it makes real profits. He contrasts prestigious academic credentials with the achievements of Hon Hai’s Terry Gou and Pop Mart’s Wang Ning. Not yet forty, Wang was reportedly worth roughly US$20 billion and described as Henan’s richest person.
