Ironman
The Hawaii Triathlon Corporation was the birthplace of the Ironmen competition. Dr. James P. Gills purchased it for $3 million in 1990. It has subsequently grown into a much larger organization than it was at the outset. Providence Equity Securities bought the firm for $85 million in 2008. The Dalian Wanda Group acquired it for $650 million seven years later! It turns out that the Chinese business had to take on the prior owner’s debt in order to do so. Wanda was overjoyed with the 40 percent year after year net increase, despite the fact that it had been successful prior to the current arrangement.

Forbes
Forbes published its debut edition in September 1917. Isn’t it amazing that it’s been 103 years since then? It has subsequently grown into a respected publication that publishes definitive and dependable celebrity and company rankings. We’re sure you’ve heard of its well-known lists like the World’s 100 Most Powerful Women and 30 Under 30. Although many people believe it is an American newspaper, the fact is that it is currently owned by Integrated Whale Media Investments, a Hong Kong-based corporation. Forbes was bought for $400 million in 2014. However, we doubt that the readers saw any differences before and after the agreement was done.
