Tiens is a conglomerate that engages in various businesses such as e-commerce and bio-technology. To accommodate them, 140 of the four and five star hotels all over France took them in and it took 4,700 rooms to take them all.
During their stay in Paris, they were provided with a private visit to the Louvre museum and a Moulin Rouge hotel show. After Paris, the Chinese vacationers proceeded to the South of France were they set a record for forming the longest man made phrase. From above, the phrase reads, "Tiens dream is Nice in the Cote d'Azur."
The staff went on to Cannes and Monaco and were also given free hotel booking there. The free vacation was meant to celebrate the 20 year partnership of Tiens with France. Forbes considers Jinyuan as the 24th wealthiest mainland Chinese with a net worth of approximately USD$1.2 billion. The Tiens tourists group has also set the record as being the biggest collective yet to visit France.
Another Chinese billionaire is currently taking almost his entire staff to a vacation in Thailand - 12,700 employees will have six days of travelling around Thai capital Bangkok and resorts of Pattaya.
Their big boss is Li Huisen, who is in charge of Infinitus, a company that sells Chinese herbal products. Twice as large as the Jinyuan group, they began arriving in Thailand by batches and on staggered basis from May 10 to 20.
It is estimated that the Infinitus group will require 110 planes to transport them all to Thailand. Upon arrival, 400 buses will take them to various four and five star hotels located in and around Bangkok.
