In the days that followed, Xiao Yunhai attended Yun Yi Shopping Network and Fantasy Special Effects' annual meetings. He even flew to Feicheng to hold a commendation ceremony for Yazhou Electronics.
This year, Xiao Yunhai's major companies had earned huge profits.
Yun Yi Shopping Network had 1.53 billion members all over the world. With a better price compared to physical stores, sales soared. The net profit for the year reached a staggering 180 billion US dollars. Its market value broke through a trillion US dollars, making it a global internet giant.
Fantasy Special Effects was even more impressive. With the popularity of 3D and IMAX 3D technology, their annual net profit easily surpassed Yun Yi Shopping Network, taking in 268 billion US dollars. The taxes they paid surpassed Hua Xia Oil Company, making it to the top of the list.
Of course, as mentioned before, 3D and IMAX 3D were one-off deals. They could only collect patent fees later on. Still, the 360 billion US dollars was enough to dazzle many.
Yazhou Electronics had also achieved a considerable amount of success. Up until today, the sales of Xiaomi phones had exceeded 63 million US dollars, while the tablet had sold 34 million US dollars, earning a net profit of 45.2 billion US dollars. This was only in Hua Xia. When sales began in other regions next year, the sales would surely be higher.
The three major companies had brought Xiao Yunhai more than 380 billion US dollars in revenue. Naturally, Xiao Yunhai would not mistreat his employees. Whether it was Yun Yi Shopping Network, Fantasy Special Effects, or Yazhou Electronics, the bonuses that the employees received were several times higher than their annual salary. Some of the employees who had contributed greatly to the company became millionaires right away.
There were no secrets in the internet age. Their earnings soon spread throughout Hua Xia, stirring up a heated discussion among netizens.
"I'm so envious. Looking at the enviable bills of Yun Huang's employees and the pitiful 3,000 US dollars in my hands, I really don't know what to say. "
"Yun Huang, do you know how hateful you are for doing this? The lowest bonus is 500,000 US dollars. Aren't you trying to kill people? "
"Yun Huang is too generous and generous. The bonuses given to the employees alone are more than a billion US dollars. I just want to know if Fantasy and Yazhou are still hiring? "
"I was already very happy when my boss gave me a year-end bonus of 10,000 yuan. But when I saw the salary list of Yun Huang's employees, I burst into tears. You can't play around like this. "
Xiao Yunhai's behavior also made those bosses very unhappy. After many reporters saw them, they scrambled to ask about the year-end bonus. Some media outlets even showed the year-end bonus of many well-known companies.
Among them, Fantasy Special Effects Imaging Company was at the top of the list, followed by Yun Yi Shopping Network, followed by Yazhou Electronics Technology Company in third place, followed by other companies in fourth place. The difference between Yazhou and Yazhou was a total of two hundred and fifty thousand.
Since it was the New Year, there would naturally be many Spring Festival Galas held by the major TV stations.
Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing received many invitations, but they were all politely declined. What a joke. They didn't even want to go to their own TV station, let alone other people's TV station.
On Lunar New Year's Eve, the entire Xiao family gathered at the courtyard house. Even Xiao Chongyang and Xiao Shengli came back for a rare reunion dinner.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Xiao Leshan looked at the large family, his heart abnormally happy. Suddenly, he looked at Xiao Yunhai, the grandson he was most proud of, and said: "Yunhai, how much wealth do you have now?"
Xiao Yunhai was stunned, not understanding why the old man would ask such a question but he answered anyway, "Grandpa, to tell you the truth, I'm not sure myself. But it should be at least two hundred and fifty billion US dollars. "
When everyone heard that, including Xiao Chongyang and Xiao Shengli, they gasped in unison.
The richest world-class billionaire since the founding of the country had appeared in their family. It was unbelievable.
At the same time, they were filled with admiration for Xiao Yunhai.
Unlike the other second-generation officials, Xiao Yunhai's businesses were all built with his own ability. It had almost nothing to do with the Xiao family. It could be said that it was a miracle in the history of business.
Xiao Shengli smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect you to be so rich now. It's enough for the military expenses of our military region for decades."
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "Second Uncle, this is an asset, not a liquid fund. It's different."
Xiao Yuanyang said, "Even so, it's enough to make all the businessmen in Hua Xia blush with shame. Haha, in just a few years, your assets have reached two hundred and fifty billion US dollars. It's not certain that no one will be able to surpass you in the future, but it's at least unprecedented. "
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "So what if I have a lot of money? I still have three meals a day. In the end, it's just a passing cloud. "
Xiao Chongyang smiled and praised him, which was rare, "Yunhai, do you know what's the most admirable thing about you? It's this indifferent attitude towards money. Maybe it's because of this that you've achieved such success. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "My way to success is to not doubt the people I use, and not use the people I doubt. Without the help of Kree, Christie, Raúl, and Wu Hao, I'm nothing now. Grandpa, what do you want to say by asking me this? "
Xiao Leshan said, "When one's wealth reaches your level, it's easy to lose your way. I want to know what your final goal is. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Originally, I was only doing business to make money so that I could better film movies and TV series. I didn't want any external interference. Now, this goal has been completely achieved. A few days ago, I suddenly had a new goal. That is, I want to try and see if I can really become the richest man in the world. "
Xiao Yuanyang asked in surprise, "Yunhai, haven't you already become the richest man in the world?"
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "That's only on the surface. There are two most powerful families in America. One is the Anderson family, and the other is the Bessie family. Their assets are at least 50 trillion US dollars, and their forces are spread all over the world. Big Brother, if I can take them down in the future, wouldn't it be great? "
Xiao Yuanyang's eyes widened and he said in disbelief, "50 trillion US dollars? You're really daring to dream. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Everyone has to have dreams. What if they come true? What's more, if I really reach that step, it will only be beneficial to our Xiao Family. "
Xiao Leshan narrowed his eyes and said, "What do you mean?"
Xiao Yunhai thought for a while and said, "Our Xiao Family is a military and political family. If we have too much power, it will arouse the dissatisfaction of those in power sooner or later. Eldest Uncle is now the second-in-command, and Second Uncle is the commander of the military region. Naturally, no one dares to do anything to us. But after a few years, once he retires, it will be hard to say. Political struggles have always been cruel and bloody, and the losers usually don't have a good ending. But with me around, I can at least guarantee that nothing will happen to our Xiao Family. Even if we are not in the military and political system, we will still be able to live comfortably. "
"You're preparing for a rainy day." Xiao Leshan clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Your concerns are completely correct. Since the founding of the country, I've seen too many prominent families being suppressed. Our Xiao Family is a big tree that attracts the wind, and we are known as the number one family in Hua Xia. This in itself is a very dangerous thing. As long as we take a wrong step, we will immediately attract the attack of a pack of wolves. Maybe you are our Xiao Family's last safeguard. Develop well, and when you have the power of the Anderson and Bessie families, even the government will have to be wary of you. This way, even if the Xiao Family is defeated, we will still have a chance of survival. Of course, this is the worst case scenario, but people who don't think far ahead are bound to have immediate worries. We have to plan for the worst case scenario. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Grandpa, don't worry. One day, I will really stand at the peak of this world. "
