     Cue: "There are 10 types of people in the world . . .".

     "ten thousand one". (No "and".)

     In Mandarin, it is the words for "one ten-thousand zero one". (Mandarin has a word for ten thousand and groups by four digits. The zero? I do not fully know. It has to do with embedded zeroes in the decimal representation.)

Sincerely,
