听众朋友你们好，欢迎来到茶时话中文，我是Penny。这是一个纯中文话题节目，我来和你用中文聊聊生活中有意思的话题，同时学习一些汉语词汇。让我们一边喝茶一边聊起来吧。

最近，中国的互联网上悄悄掀起了一股热潮，那就是逃离一线城市，回到家乡创业。一些创业成功的年轻人把他们的故事拍成视频放到网上，引发很多人的关注。这是怎么回事呢？

中国的一线城市，也就是北京、上海、广州和深圳的工作和生活的压力非常大，这是众所周知的事实。这几年，随着中国城市化过程接近尾声，大城市的年轻人也开始悄悄掀起了一小波回乡潮。他们不仅是厌倦了大城市的种种弊病，也向往着乡村生活的归园田居、诗和远方。很多大学生毕业后回到家乡进行农业生产，带领家乡的人们致富。但是也有年轻人回乡不仅仅是种植农作物，还开发了更多的有趣内容。

春天一家是疫情开始的时候从上海回到乡村的。疫情三年，他们几乎没有带过口罩，每天生活在蓝天白云、绿树河流的美景中。仅仅是这一点，就让所有人心生羡慕。三年来，他们改造羊圈建成房屋，院子种满鲜花，还在地里种菜，建乡村图书馆，到后来的设计研学项目，邀请城里的孩子来乡村体验生活。他们的视频不仅获得几十万人的观看，还被中国的中央电视台多次采访、录节目。看着他们用双手辛勤劳动，创造美好生活，在大城市打拼的同龄人纷纷留下羡慕的评语。

他们用自己的智慧，创造了充满希望的和可能性的生活。同时，获得了国家“乡村振兴“政策的扶持和广泛的赞誉。我相信，未来中国的农村是一片创业和生活的广阔天地，更多年轻有为的回乡人将把乡村建设得更美好。让我们拭目以待！

好了，希望你喜欢今天的内容，这里是茶时话中文，我是Penny，我们下次见。

Every billionaire in the world who is under the age of 30 has inherited their wealth, according to new research by Forbes magazine.

Forbes recently published its World's Billionaires List. And all 15 people on the list who are aged 30 or younger did nothing to create their wealth — they simply received it.

According to Forbes this is the first time since 2009 there have been no self-made billionaires aged under 30. And the magazine says it's a sign that a "great wealth transfer" has begun from aging billionaires to the younger members of their families.

The youngest billionaire on the list is 19-year-old Livia Voigt of Brazil. She is worth $1.1 billion thanks to her late grandfather, who founded the electrical equipment company WEG Industries.

The richest of the young billionaires are the Mistry brothers, Firoz, 27, and Zahan, 25. They are each worth $4.9 billion thanks to their shares in the multi-industry Indian company Tata Sons. They inherited their wealth from their father, who died in a car crash in 2022.

Among the 25 youngest billionaires on the list — who are all aged 33 or younger — a few in their early 30s are self-made. However, just one of those self-made billionaires is new: 33-year-old Shunsaku Sagami of Japan. Sagami is the founder of M&A Research Institute, and is worth $1.6 billion.

One self-made billionaire who is still fairly young at 34 is Taylor Swift, who is worth $1.1 billion. In 2023, she became the first musician to become a billionaire mainly from the money she makes from her music.

Every Billionaire Under 30 Inherited Their Wealth

El récord en ventas de una obra de Kahlo en subasta había sido de 8 millones de dólares, impuesto en 2016 por Dos desnudos en el bosque (1939). Mientras tanto, otras dos obras de la pintora mexicana subastadas en Christie’s en 2019 recaudaron casi los 9 millones de dólares: Retrato de una mujer de blanco (1929) fue vendida a un comprador privado en Nueva York por 5,8 millones de dólares, mientras que Canasta con flores (1941) se vendió en 3,1 millones. Pinturas como Raíces (1943) se vendieron por 5,6 millones de dólares a la cantante Madonna y la pintura de Kahlo, Diego y yo (1944), fue la primera obra de una artista latinoamericana en romper la barrera del millón de dólares al momento de su venta, cerrando con un precio de subasta de 1,4 millones de dólares en una subasta.

La obra de Frida Kahlo comenzó basándose en el retrato de personas cercanas a su vida, los que han ayudado luego a suponer la identidad de otros personajes desconocidos en las pinturas de Kahlo. Sus primeras piezas se comparan con el arte clásico europeo, también siendo comparado muchas veces con la técnica del Renacimiento, usada por pintores como Botticelli y Bronzino. Las obras de Kahlo navegan entre las descripciones de los movimientos avant-garde, la nueva objetividad y el cubismo. Un periodo de su vida dio un giro al estilo de su pintura, acercando su inspiración y su estilo hacia el folklore mexicano. Historiadores del arte sugieren que el acercamiento de Frida Kahlo hacia las raíces mexicanas, pudo haber estado influenciado por la obra de Adolfo Best Maugard sobre el mismo tema, en donde predominaban la falta de perspectiva y la combinación de los elementos de los periodos prehispánicos del arte mexicano.
