All in all, the Daqian Group's direct business had achieved 55 billion USD in 1997, and the total profit was about 25 billion USD. If this was announced, the whole world would be shocked.
Other things aside, there would definitely be a place for Da Qian in the world's top 100. Boss Jia would even directly become the world's richest man. After all, the world's richest man last year, Gates, was only worth about 20 billion USD.
The entire Daqian Group belongs to Boss Jia alone. The 25 billion USD profit will belong to Boss Jia alone. If you include the hundreds of billions of USD he earned in Hong Kong, Boss Jia will be the world's richest man.
Ok, the title is achieved, and this book can end.
Ending the book.
… …
Well, in fact, this was wrong because Boss Jia was not the world's richest man. As mentioned before, although the world's richest man in name was Bill Gates, this was only a conclusion drawn by financial magazines based on the data on paper.
The richest man in the world had never been people like Bill Gates. Instead, it was the families and financial groups that hid behind the world and rarely showed their faces in public.
Not to mention other things, the four major consortiums of Japan, the four major families behind them, each had a wealth of more than 500 billion USD.
Not to mention the families behind Morgan, Rothschild, Rockefeller, and other top consortiums.
These people are the world's richest men. They are so powerful that the media and magazines do not dare to report anything about them. This is because the bosses behind these media and magazines are these hidden tycoons.
These tycoons know how to make a fortune quietly. They know the world hates the rich. If you are too rich, you will be tortured by public opinion.
Therefore, the best way was to hide yourself. Even if you were the richest man in the world, with trillions or even tens of trillions of dollars in assets, you would still be able to keep a low profile all over the world.
Some people might refute this. Rockefeller and JP Morgan Chase are also very famous. Everyone knows about them. They are not hiding at all!
Then let me ask you. Do you know who is in charge of the Rockefeller family, or the head of the Morgan family? Who was the one who could truly control the entire consortium?
99.99% of the people in the world didn't even know his name.
As for our Boss Jia, we only know his name.
The master of the Rockefeller family was called John Rockefeller. However, this was not his original name, but a name that would be passed down forever.
The founder of the Rockefeller Consortium was named John Rockefeller, and every subsequent leader of the Rockefeller family was named John Rockefeller. As for their real names, no one knew them, not even Boss Jia could find out.
The members of the Rockefeller family that were placed outside were actually just collateral bloodlines. Only the person named John Rockefeller was the real controller.
As for the patriarch of the JP Morgan Consortium, although he did not have the weird tradition of inheriting his ancestor's name, there was no doubt that the current patriarch's name was "Tec Morgan."
However, the problem was that no one knew whether this Tec Morgan was a man or a woman. All Boss Jia could find out was this name.
It was said that the Rockefeller family and the Morgan family were not the richest family in the world, nor was the Rothschild family. The richest family in the world was the Medici family. This was a family that possessed unimaginable wealth in the world. With a history of 700 years, it was a family that was like the devil.
This was also a family that had truly hidden itself completely. Since the 16th century, no one could find any information about the Medici family from the records. Everyone had forgotten about the existence of this family.
However, according to a piece of news that Boss Jia accidentally obtained, this family still existed and possessed unimaginable wealth. However, no one could say for sure how huge it was.
Compared to these terrifying families, Boss Jia's wealth was only the tip of a small lotus flower. Therefore, this book should be able to contain many more words.
Alright, back to the main topic.
After the domestic subsidiaries finished their reports, it was the turn of the foreign vassals to make their reports.
As usual, the first to make their debut was Fusang. The entire Fusang Daqian was basically operating smoothly and the profits were very stable. It was about the same as last year. Including Dengeki Bunko and Roundvale, the total was about 1.6 billion USD.
The Fusang market and company that once accounted for more than 80% of the entire Daqian Group's profits had declined to the point that it was dispensable to the Daqian company in 1997. The market itself did not actually reduce the profits. It could only be said that the Daqian Group as a whole was developing too fast under Boss Jia's guidance. It was so fast that the Fusang market could no longer keep up with Boss Jia's footsteps.
Of course, this did not include Xiamu Network's results.
Xiamu Network's national broadband rollout plan was being carried out in an orderly manner. The Tokyo area's broadband rollout was expected to be completed in June 1998. It would become the first city in the world to have broadband coverage on all major streets.
Of course, Xiamu Network was also spending money crazily. Out of the 80 billion USD loan, they had 20 billion USD now. Among them, more than 10 billion USD was purchased from Daqian Electronics. However, due to financial issues, it was not included in the 1997 income. Therefore, it was estimated that in 1998, Daqian Electronics would almost certainly surpass Daqian Games and become the most profitable company under the Daqian Group.
What? You said that the 10 billion USD was borrowed and could not be counted as profit?
That did not matter. All the money was borrowed from Xiamu Network. What did it have to do with the Daqian Group?
Then there was the United States. Benefiting from the massive number of IP licenses under the Daqian Group, the United States' Daqian Puzzle Toys Company was doing very well. In 1997, its sales exceeded 3 billion USD and became a toy company second only to Hasbro.
Moreover, Daqian Puzzle Toys Company was not limited to the production of toys. Because they had obtained a lot of IP for adult culture products, they planned to dabble in apparel, handicrafts, and other comprehensive enterprises that could be linked to IP. Their ambitions were huge.
But then again, the total sales of these foreign enterprises did not exceed 8 billion USD. Their profits were only about 3 billion USD. They were completely abandoned by the Daqian Group's headquarters. The Daqian Group rarely established enterprises that were directly managed by foreigners. This meant that the strength of the Daqian Group's headquarters had grown to the extent that they could take over the world.
This was the change that made Boss Jia the most happy.
