Chapter 1356: There Is a Lot of Potential in This Matter
Seriously, is Jin Xiantai rich?
Yes! He is really rich!
Even among the rich, he is considered a rich man.
Of course, he just doesn't have much cash on hand at the moment.
His assets are all the companies and enterprises under his name.
Such as QQ, Taobao, CNN media, FedEx transportation that has just been acquired, the huge transportation fleet under construction, data centers built all over the world, and the electric motorcycle factory invested by Huaxia Longcheng, the Hummer car factory, and the reclaimed land in Yokohama, Japan.
If these enterprises are added together, he is of course a rich man, and a rich man.
But these enterprises cannot be equated with cash.
So it is right for Jin Xiantai to tell Qiao An that he has no money, because his money has been invested.
But Qiao An was not disappointed. Compared with Jin Xiantai, who is a hands-off shopkeeper, she knows better whether her boss has money or not.
"Boss, you don't have to think like that. You actually have money in your hands, and it's quite a lot. I'm talking about cash."
Jin Xiantai didn't say anything, but sat there quietly, waiting for Qiao An to report to him about this.
To be honest, Jin Xiantai was too comfortable being a hands-off boss, so comfortable that he didn't even know how much money these companies made for him.
Although he managed the accounting matters himself, he also managed how to spend money, and he didn't know how much money he made.
It was also thanks to Qiao An, a lesbian, that he had a lesbian. If it was someone else, who knows if he would be cheated.
"QQ's online users are still growing steadily. According to statistics, there are about 1 billion users who are online for more than 8 hours a day, and most of them are online for 4 to 6 hours. The total number of registered users has reached 5 billion."
Due to the large population base of the different time and space, and the fact that there are no network restrictions in the different time and space, people all over the world can download and use QQ after it is launched, so the data of 5 billion users is not surprising at all.
It is precisely because of this that Qiao An said that the number of users is still steadily increasing. After all, with a large population base, the number of users using QQ will also increase. This is just a normal thing.
Of course, it is absolutely impossible to have so many users at once. It takes time to accumulate slowly.
In short, the future development prospects of QQ are still very optimistic.
Jin Xiantai did not say anything, and Qiao An continued.
"QQ membership system is relatively supported by netizens. Anyway, the membership fee is only 10 US dollars a month. 20% of netizens have opened membership services. Suddenly, QQ has 1 billion QQ members and 10 billion US dollars in revenue every month."
Hearing this, even Jin Xiantai seemed not so calm.
You know, this is 10 billion US dollars.
It has to be said that the benefits of a large population base in different time and space have now been perfectly interpreted.
Of course, due to the large number of users using QQ, the number of employees in the QQ network will increase accordingly, and the support for network maintenance and other related aspects will also become very large.
This is a very inevitable thing.
"QQ Network Company currently has 16,000 employees and 48 data conversion control centers around the world. The maintenance cost is about 6.3 billion US dollars per month, the salary expenditure is 230 million, and the water, electricity, employee meals and hidden welfare expenditures are about 1 billion US dollars per month, so the remaining net profit is about 2.5 billion."
Well, there is still net profit, which is also quite good.
Jin Xiantai is quite satisfied.
After all, the income is greater than the expenditure, what is there to be dissatisfied about.
Qiao An continued to report: "QQ online game platform has been launched, and 12 online games have been withdrawn. And because of the stickiness of QQ users, the number of users of these 12 games is very large, which can bring in 800 million US dollars in revenue every month."
Since Qiao An had previously calculated all the expenses, the income of the QQ game platform,
now belongs to pure profit.
The 800 million US dollars here, plus the remaining 2.5 billion US dollars of the previous QQ members, suddenly became 3.3 billion US dollars, which is not a small amount.
Thinking of this, Jin Xiantai was a little excited.
After all, he would not complain about the small amount of money.
"Although the Taobao platform has been launched, it is still being improved in general, and a large number of advertisements need to be placed throughout the United States, so all the net profits earned by QQ have been invested in the Taobao platform."
At this point, Qiao An paused and looked up at Jin Xiantai's reaction.
Jin Xiantai grinned bitterly, but his reaction was not very big.
After all, he also knew how much money Taobao burned, so he really didn't find this matter strange at all.
Of course, Jin Xiantai also understood very well that as long as Taobao was running, it would be a money printing machine in the future.
Seeing that Jin Xiantai was not very disappointed, Qiao An continued to report: "Alipay has been put into use. After our continuous promotion, it has gradually become familiar to the public, and some young people have begun to use this online transaction tool. Last month, Alipay's income was about 6 million US dollars after deducting various tax fees."
This matter surprised Jin Xiantai a little.
Because he didn't expect that Alipay had actually started to make money.
In Jin Xiantai's original world, Alipay was a free online payment tool, but after Jin Xiantai tinkered with it in the different time and space, he charged a handling fee of one thousandth.
But no matter what, Alipay is still very convenient to use, so after this online payment tool was launched, it was accepted and used by many young people in a short period of time.
However, although some people have started using it, it still takes time to reach the scale of universal use like in another time and space.
But no matter what, Alipay has a very good prospect, and has reached an agreement with major banks in the United States, and Alipay has entered the systems of those banks.
In addition to the United States, Jin Xiantai will inevitably start contacting some foreign banks to promote Alipay to the world.
If global transactions are all done with Alipay, then the money Alipay will make in the future will be...
Well, the prospects are bright.
But at the moment, Alipay's revenue last month was only 6 million US dollars.
Of course, it's not that no one has questioned the security of Alipay. To address this issue, Jin Xiantai's method is to hang Alipay on the Internet and let the experts attack.
In the end, after a few months, no one has been able to break through Alipay's security firewall, so there is no need to worry too much about Alipay's security issues.
You know, even the people from SHIELD participated in the attack at that time.
But they didn't think about it. Alipay's firewall and security system were made by Andrew using black technology. With the current technology in the different time and space, how could it be possible to break through the black technology firewall.
Qiao An reported the profit data of each company to Jin Xiantai today.
In general, the income of each company is still considerable, but all of this income has been invested in the promotion of Taobao and Alipay, so Jin Xiantai can't get a penny of profit.
This made Jin Xiantai very amused.
But next, what Qiao An is going to report is the key.
You know, Jin Xiantai owns more than just these companies.
He recently added an oil field in which he and Annie hold shares, as well as a private "security consultant" company under his name, a steel plant specializing in the production of special steel, and a pharmaceutical manufacturing company that sells "Viagra" all over the world.
Qiao An had not mentioned these four companies before, and it was obvious that he wanted to talk about them last.
"The oil field is still under construction, and it will take at least half a year to have income, so I just mentioned this to you, so that you don't count too much on this income within half a year."
Jin Xiantai grinned and nodded.
Qiao An continued: "At the security consulting company, because the retired generals are already in place, the work has already begun. Miss Anne personally reached an agreement with the vampires. 12,000 vampires with difficult lives have signed contracts with the company and serve the company for five years.
They now need to undergo three months of special training before they can be dispatched to perform tasks, and we have received a list from the Ministry of National Defense. At that time, these vampires will be sent to South Vietnam."
Hearing this, Jin Xiantai couldn't help grinning again.
At the same time, he thought to himself, is it because of these vampires that he was sent to Vietnam?
Of course, maybe it's because he is about to be sent to Vietnam that the security company will take on such an order.
"The price offered by the Ministry of National Defense is very generous. The Ministry of National Defense will hire each of these vampire mercenaries for $50,000, and we only need to pay those vampires $800 a day."
Black!
Too black!
But I like it.
Kim Hyun-tae didn't say anything about this.
It can be said that by hiring vampires, both Kim Hyun-tae and the Ministry of National Defense benefit, and even the vampire mercenaries who are cheated can get rid of their poverty.
The investment of a single soldier in the United States is about $150,000 per person.
But if you find mercenaries, the Ministry of National Defense only needs $50,000, which directly saves two-thirds of the military expenditure. Anyone can calculate this account.
The US war situation in Vietnam is very passive, and it is about to increase investment and increase troops.
So if it can save some military expenditure, the Ministry of National Defense is still very happy.
On the other hand, those vampires who signed the contract of selling their bodies were originally poor women who had no food to eat. After becoming mercenaries and being sent to Vietnam, they could not only get a salary of 800 US dollars a day, but also suck blood without any scruples if there was any battle.
So being a mercenary is also a great thing for these blood clan poor women.
Not to mention Jin Xiantai, who can earn more than 20,000 US dollars from each mercenary just by sitting there. Is there any business in the world that is more profitable than this?
For a moment, Jin Xiantai suddenly thought, can he find blood clans and ask them to provide more poor blood clan poor women to work in his mercenary company?
