The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

Early January 1995, Harbin, Weizigou Campus of Harbin Institute of Technology.

Inside the villa on the lake island.

"Xiaoli, I need to go to the Ali camp for a while. Do you want to come with me?"

How long will it take?

"About a week, it won't be long."

"Then forget it, I won't go with her. Bai Doufu is still too young. The Ali camp is on a high plateau, so it's not suitable for me to take her with me, nor is it suitable for me to leave her alone at home."

"Okay, I'll go by myself."

Wang Duoyu persuaded Liu Xiaoli, but Wang Yifei and the others really wanted to go with them.

Unfortunately, they were taking their final exams around the same time, so naturally they didn't have time.

So Wang Duoyu took a plane to Ali's camp.

After the plane arrived at Ali's camp, Wang Duoyu did not stay there for long. Instead, he secretly boarded another plane and left the country.

This is a plane belonging to the Want Want Group itself, and all the passengers on board are scientific researchers.

The entire Ali camp is an experimental base of Harbin Institute of Technology on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

The Want Want Group and Harbin Institute of Technology have a very good relationship, so Want Want Group experts who have undergone identity verification and detailed background checks can go to Alibaba's camp.

Wang Duoyu's private jet is still parked at the airport in Ali's camp. He is in seclusion and is being guarded by Yuan Zuliang and others.

Well, if necessary, Huang Deming will disguise himself as 'Wang Duoyu' and occasionally go for a walk in the neighborhood.

As for Wang Duoyu himself, he naturally took Zhang Xuji, Zhao Xianyou, Mou Xiaowu and the others to the Somali Peninsula.

At Hidab Airport, a plane descends from the sky and lands smoothly.

Since the aircraft flew over the Indian Ocean without passing through the airspace of other countries, it naturally went undetected.

The Somali peninsula has no radar systems or similar facilities, so naturally they couldn't detect that the plane had landed at Hidab Airport.

"Uncle Jiu, you've finally arrived! I'm so glad to see you again on foreign soil."

As soon as Wang Duoyu stepped out of the cabin, Wang Jianchao quickly stepped forward and said happily.

Executives including Lee Evra, O'Brien, Zheng Baoyin, Yu Kexue, and Allen Costa were all waiting here.

They all arrived here a day or several days in advance and were very familiar with the entire city of Hideb.

"Hehe, you didn't come to Zurich last time, otherwise you could have seen me."

After a brief chat, Wang Duoyu, surrounded by the crowd, began his visit to Hideb.

After more than a year of development, Hideb has undergone tremendous changes.

A year ago, Hideb was a barren wasteland, but now it is covered with lush green plants.

Many trees transplanted from other places are also growing well.

Barely, this place could be considered a small oasis.

In addition, there are several solar power plants, as well as other factory areas.

Although the distribution is a bit messy, it's still not too bad.

It's clear from the ground, but you can get a full view from a helicopter.

"Is this all the progress made in desert greening?"

After inspecting the greenery on the ground, Wang Duoyu was very disappointed.

It's worth noting that over the past year, Want Want Group has invested a significant amount of money and provided substantial human and material resources in Hideb.

However, the area of ​​desert greening has only progressed to eight square kilometers so far.

This area is small, yet also very large.

Moreover, the surface is only part of it; the underground is the real key.

"Uncle, this is already very good."

Zheng Baoyin explained with a wry smile, while also assuring that the pace of desert greening would accelerate starting this year.

Want Want Group has recruited tens of thousands of workers from China, and these workers will arrive in Hideb in the coming months.

They all arrived by plane in nearby cities such as Dubai and Djibouti, and then took a ship to the port of Perbera, or entered the Somali peninsula from other places.

Anyway, the Somali peninsula is currently in a state of anarchy, so it doesn't matter who wants to come and go.

"Has the secrecy been maintained?"

Wang Duoyu asked.

The place called Hideb needs to be kept strictly secret. Anyone who manages to enter here is not allowed to reveal its secrets in the future.

Of course, those workers who go abroad to work for high wages don't know where they are; their entire itinerary is kept secret.

"Well, that's for sure."

Want Want Group has many businesses around the world. Even if these people leave, they can go to work in other places without delaying things or leaking secrets.

Seeing this, Wang Duoyu nodded, asked no further questions, and went to visit the underground laboratory.

This underground laboratory is divided into many parts, one of which is just starting out and will likely take at least ten years or more to complete.

There's no way around it, this thing is the famous Large Hadron Collider.

Wang Duoyu is rich; he simply took out 50 billion US dollars to build such a hadron collider.

Money is not the issue.

Talent is the key.

Want Want Group has already launched the relevant plan, but so far, it has only just begun laying the foundation for the Large Hadron Collider and several other major laboratories.

Take the artificial sun experiment as an example. The research and development of high-temperature resistant materials alone, a very small part of the experimental research and development project, has cost Want Want Group tens of billions of US dollars, and there are still no results.

For Wang Duoyu, he needs to take a longer-term view.

Some things are difficult to do domestically, but can be done without restraint abroad.

The artificial sun project is extremely complex, and there are only a handful of laboratories in the world that dare to do it.

With the Want Want Group having both money and manpower, and through everyone's cooperation, it's naturally possible to achieve this.

Yes, Wang Duoyu's next direction is to explore new technological fields and challenge his own weaknesses.

He firmly believes that, in addition to breakthroughs in materials research and development, there should be other ways to solve this technical problem in artificial suns.

What Wang Duoyu wanted to do was to bind the sun and make its energy release process controllable.

Of course, he knew it would be difficult. First, he needed to have a long enough lifespan, and second, he needed to have enough financial resources.

After all, the artificial sun experiment is extremely complex, and the level of technical difficulty is unprecedented.

Anyway, Wang Duoyu hadn't created it before he traveled through time.

Wang Duoyu visited several of the underground laboratories of Hideb before finally preparing to rest, feeling exhausted.

The very next day, the Want Want Group's year-end summary meeting officially began.

The conference was held in a bright and luxurious meeting room in the heart of the area near Hidab Airport.

All senior executives of Want Want Group attended the event; no one was absent.

Because this summary meeting is actually a spoils-dividing meeting, everyone is very willing to attend.

Many people want to participate, but they are not qualified.

"Good morning, colleagues. This is the first time our Want Want Group has held a summary meeting overseas since its establishment. I'm sure you all have very different feelings about it, right?"

Wang Duoyu looked at everyone with a smile and said.

Everyone immediately smiled knowingly.

Among those present, many were from China, many were executives from the United States, and others came from other countries around the world.

For example, Gabhari, who recently joined the senior management team, is an American coffee enthusiast from South America and is currently the head of a Boston bank.

Over the years, the summary conference has been held in cities such as Harbin, Guangzhou, and Shanghai, but it has never been held abroad.

Although everyone can understand, they still hope to hold the meeting elsewhere.

The executives were well aware of Wang Duoyu's experience in Zurich six months ago; they had more information than the outside world did.

However, they didn't know how Wang Duoyu managed to slip away undetected, since many executives were unaware of Huang Deming, the imposter.

"In the future, this place in Hidebu will become the true headquarters of our Want Want Group. There won't be many buildings on the ground; it will mainly consist of date palm cultivation and basic industrial development such as a solar power plant."

"The underground laboratory is the true core asset of our Want Want Group. I will dedicate myself to building a massive laboratory, similar to an underground honeycomb."

"In the future, Want Want Group will continue to develop many cutting-edge technologies, such as artificial intelligence, bionic mechanical prosthetics, solid-state lattice batteries, nanomedical robots, armed humanoid robots, cryogenic hibernation chambers, controlled nuclear fusion, space weapons, gene anti-aging, and other technologies."

clap clap clap!
The entire conference room resounded with thunderous applause.

All the executives were thrilled, their eyes filled with fervent admiration as they looked at Wang Duoyu.

Because the technologies he mentioned were all unheard of by most people.

They weren't worried that Wang Duoyu was just making empty promises, because everyone knew very well that Wang Duoyu was a man of his word.

"Siddhab is located on the equator, which will make it an excellent satellite launch site and one of the testing grounds for our Want Want Group."

"I will lead everyone to develop more technologies, build space cities, promote lunar development, terraform Venus, and colonize Mars. Our future lies in the stars."

"Therefore you must all protect our Hideb and keep it hidden from everyone's sight."

Boom!

Everyone became even more excited.

"Modern medicine has developed rapidly. David of the Rockefeller family has had multiple heart transplants and has lived for more than twenty years. I believe you should know about this, right?"

Lee Efra and the others nodded in agreement.

The fact that David Rockefeller underwent multiple heart transplants is something that ordinary people are not very aware of, but people like Yabo Fein are very aware of it.

Because the executives who can sit in this conference room are all billionaires with a net worth of at least one billion US dollars.

A billion dollars wouldn't rank very high on the Forbes list of the world's richest people.

Tenth on the list is Christie Walton of the Walton family, with a net worth of $36.7 billion.

The world's richest man is Bill Gates, with a net worth of $79 billion.

However, none of the people like Lee Efrat made the list, but Zheng Baoyin's net worth has already exceeded 20 billion US dollars.

Wang Jianchao's total net worth exceeds 20 billion US dollars.

Ironically, none of them appeared on the Forbes list.

This is what makes 'European capital' so powerful. Forbes wouldn't dare to do that if they actually published the names of these billionaires in the meeting room on their list.

So, without a doubt, the parent company behind Forbes magazine is Forbes Media, a company founded by Steve Forbes.

Steve Forbes had been informed by Zheng Baoyin and his team long ago that he was not allowed to include the names of these executives on the list.

There are many wealthy people in the United States, and the billionaires on the Forbes list are just the tip of the iceberg.

The names of financial giants such as the Morgan family, Rockefeller family, and Mellon family did not appear on the list.

The Want Want Group is also quite powerful, with profits exceeding hundreds of billions of US dollars in the past few years.

This size is approaching, or even surpassing, that of top conglomerates like the Morgan family.

So it was quite common for people like Lee Efra to know about David Rockefeller's heart transplant.

"With modern medical technology, living to eighty or ninety years old will be the baseline in the future, and living to over one hundred years old is not impossible."

"In the future, we can develop technologies such as nanomedical robots, allowing people to live longer."

"Space is the future of humankind, but I don't know if everyone will be fortunate enough to witness the arrival of the interstellar travel era."

clap clap clap!
As Wang Duoyu spoke, the applause continued unabated.

Only after Wang Duoyu finished making empty promises did he speak:

"Okay, what I'm saying is to tell everyone that we need to make sure that Hideb is not spied on by outsiders."

"Let's begin the conference now, Meihe, you'll be the host today."

"Okay, Ninth Brother."

The year before last, Wang Meili chaired the meeting; this year, it's Wang Meihe's turn.

As in previous years, the "biological son" companies gave their reports in the morning, followed by the "adopted son" companies.

Starting with the women's clothing brand, the year-end summary meeting began in 1994.

Wang Duoyu is most concerned about Hongxing Group, and doesn't pay much attention to other companies.

Wen Shixuan respectfully reported:
"In the past year, our Hongxing Group has achieved a record 323 technological innovations, including 69 new material research and development achievements."

"New breakthroughs have been achieved in technologies such as high temperature resistance and high pressure resistance."

Upon hearing this, Wang Duoyu was the first to applaud.

He had witnessed the contributions of the Red Star Group.

Although it's still much slower, there's nothing we can do about it; we can't rush it.

That's how research and development in materials is; it can only be carried out step by step.

It will even freeze up in many situations, which is unavoidable.

If breakthroughs can be achieved in other directions in the future, such as discovering new elements or something similar.

Alternatively, by mixing different metals in varying proportions, more new alloy materials can be developed.

This represents a revolutionary development for the entire materials industry.

"At the same time, our Red Star Group also set a new revenue record in 1994, with domestic revenue reaching 5.2 billion RMB and exports reaching 1.3 billion USD."

Wang Duoyu didn't applaud this time because he knew very well where this revenue came from.

For example, the domestic revenue comes from sales to projects such as domestically produced passenger aircraft and the Longxiao stealth fighter jet.

It's just a matter of transferring money from one hand to the other.

On the other hand, Wang Duoyu didn't care about this amount of revenue at all.

After all, this amount of money is less than a fraction of what a financial company would pay, so what's there to applaud?

Then came companies such as Brabus Watch Factory, Magic Toys Factory, and Leap Sports.

It wasn't until he came to Facebook and Amazon, two internet companies, that Wang Duoyu started to pay a little more attention.

These two internet giants are currently in a class of their own globally, with no other competitors able to compare.

Barring any major crisis, these two giants will likely form a monopoly.

These two companies also hold shares in many small businesses, such as Netscape Navigator.

They even mentor other internet companies.

Basically, this company can be described as a tyrant.

Then it was Hakimi Hamburger Company's and Huachen Mobile's turn.

Hakimi, the hamburger company, has gone global and has established a presence in markets such as Europe and Southeast Asia.

We are about to enter the Americas market and are ready.

Competing with McDonald's and KFC is inevitable.

The global fast food market is actually not very large, but it is also enormous.

There are quite a few potential competitors in the North American market, especially nowadays supermarkets such as Walmart and Target, which supply a wide variety of ready-to-eat foods.

Even foods like fried chicken, hamburgers, fries, and pizza can be found in abundance in supermarkets.

Even popular soft drinks like Coca-Cola come in many different sizes and brands.

With the acceleration of globalization, many industries have become red ocean markets, such as the fast food market.

After entering the global market, Hakimi hamburgers have made steady progress despite facing numerous competitors.

Perhaps in just a few years, it will be in fierce competition with McDonald's, KFC and other fast food chains in all aspects.

However, McDonald's has already been acquired, so they will need to get rid of KFC.

But how to drive the other party away requires strategy and planning.

Wang Duoyu didn't interfere too much, after all, Hakimi's current scale had exceeded his expectations.

If we want to continue developing, then we need everyone to work together to make things happen.

Going public might be a very good option.

Huachen Mobile is a new brand, established a little over a year ago, and is still engaged in the research and development of mobile phones. What needs to be reported at present is the progress of research and development.

"How many months into next year can mass production begin? When will it be available for sale?"

This is the question that Wang Duoyu cares about most.

In the current global mobile phone market, the industry leader is Huaxin Company, because this company controls about 60% of the global high-end market.

Huaxin Mobile has captured 80% or more of the mid-to-low-end market.

It is undoubtedly a behemoth.

Several European and American competitors have reported CEFC for monopolistic practices, but this hasn't deterred the company. Back in the day, IBM controlled over 95% of the global computer market; that was a true monopoly.

Currently, the global mobile phone market includes brands such as Motorola, Samsung, Ericsson, and Nokia.

Well, apart from Motorola, which is somewhat protected by local interests and can barely withstand Huaxin Company, other mobile phone brands can only struggle in their own little corner of the market.

For example, Samsung, a mobile phone company that hasn't been around for very long, can only operate in South Korea and is far less powerful than it was in the original timeline.

With Huachen mobile phones about to be launched, these mobile phone brands may face an even more serious survival crisis.

"It should be fully available by June next year."

The person in charge is named Dai Ronghua. He is a mobile phone technology expert and a genius.

"Okay, that's good. You guys focus on making good products, and the sales team needs to be set up as soon as possible. The brand stores in major global markets are almost ready, and it would be best if consumers could experience them in March or April."

Wang Duoyu nodded and said:
"Our new product launch is scheduled for March, so we can let the world know about this product in advance and promote the phone extensively."

"The strategy is primarily based on scarcity marketing, but global shipments must be high and fast!"

Scarcity marketing?

Those present were familiar with these four words.

But why would a high-end mobile phone with such a high price tag need to resort to scarcity marketing?

Would this be a bad idea?
Hehe, we'll find out whether it works or not in time.

A groundbreaking product is absolutely extraordinary.

After Huachen Mobile, it was the turn of Youma Clothing Company, Pandora, and Huaxin Technology.

Yuma Apparel is a company managed by Zheng Baoyin. This company is now one of the top-ranked mid-to-low-end apparel brands in the world, with annual revenue ranking among the top in the global industry.

To achieve a breakthrough, we need to develop in all aspects and explore new markets.

In fact, for any company to eventually reach its full potential, group development is an inevitable trend.

Because if a company only focuses on one particular industry, its potential will be severely limited.

The market is only so big; it's impossible for this company to grow any better.

For example, the Apple company in the original timeline couldn't have only produced computers; otherwise, it wouldn't have been so successful back then.

Apple gradually became the world's most valuable company after the release of the iPhone.

The iPhone is the true pillar industry of this company.

However, if we're only talking about phones, Apple might not be able to do that well either.

Subsequently, Apple also had to make many changes as times changed.

If tech companies are like this, what about other businesses?
It is rare for a company to remain successful for so long.

The same applies to Yuma clothing.

Pandora is a luxury goods company that sells extremely luxurious clothing, bags, perfumes, belts, watches, and more.

Because of its pioneering membership system, Pandora remains a leader in the luxury goods industry.

The membership ranges from a basic membership starting at $10,000, to a gold membership at $100,000, to a diamond membership at $1 million, and finally to a supreme membership at $10 million.

Over the years, there have only been four membership levels.

Based on the current situation, it seems unlikely that the number will continue to increase.

Otherwise, the members at the Gold, Diamond, and Supreme levels would be furious.

Moreover, higher levels also mean more funds are needed, but those who can spend tens of millions of dollars are no ordinary wealthy people.

Therefore, maintaining relationships is the most important thing, rather than trying to win people over through such means.

Customization is the ultimate luxury.

Pandora has also begun preparations to expand its customization business and become the new 'top choice for the elite'.

Walsin Technology needs no introduction; this company currently boasts the highest annual revenue among all manufacturing enterprises within the Want Want Group.

none of them.

However, things will be hard to say once Huachen mobile phones are launched.

Furthermore, the current computer market is experiencing fierce competition among high-end computer brands, while the mid-to-low-end market is booming.

Even in markets with moderate consumer spending, such as South America, there are still differences in both coil prices and production capacity.

Many computer companies are able to produce them, and that's not just due to marketing.

Because Wang Duoyu's empty promises took up some time in the morning, the report was not finished until 12:20 pm.

All the subsidiaries have been reported, and the total revenue for the year increased by 17 percent compared to 1993, which is not a slow growth rate.

But it's not fast either.

Given the current stability of the global market and the absence of major financial crises, these manufacturing companies should theoretically be experiencing rapid growth.

Unfortunately, most of Want Want Group's companies are those that have been established in the industry for many years. If they want to achieve rapid revenue growth, they need to explore new markets.

Therefore, the launch of Huachen mobile phones in 1995 may bring new opportunities.

At lunchtime, Wang Duoyu and his friends all ate together in the cafeteria.

When will we be able to get dates here in Hideb?

While eating, Wang Duoyu asked questions.

Dates are arguably the most important food source in the Middle East.

Perhaps to the wealthy, dates are just a snack, but to many ordinary people in the Middle East, they are an important food source.

Because the local area does not produce much food, crops such as wheat, rice, and sorghum are extremely rare in the Middle East.

Most of the area is desert; where can we grow food?
Therefore, dates, a food that can grow on date palms, became an important staple food.

"It won't be until next year or the year after. If the professor would like to try it, I'll arrange it right away."

"Hehe, I've eaten dates."

Wang Duoyu shook his head.

He was the one who told these high-ranking officials about dates; otherwise, they wouldn't have known that dates existed in the Middle East.

His question about dates was simply to find out about the situation on Hideb's side.

In the future, Hideb will definitely need to export dates; otherwise, the outside world's watchful eyes will continue indefinitely.

Although the Somali Peninsula is chaotic, it is still a land area of ​​600,000 square kilometers.

This vast piece of land, within China, is located between Qinghai and Sichuan.

Qinghai has an area of ​​720,000 square kilometers, while Sichuan has an area of ​​480,000 square kilometers.

Therefore, if the Somali Peninsula can be properly developed, this land may very well become a prosperous place in the future.

"By the way, what's the specific situation of the livestock industry here? How are the domestic pigs surviving here now? Will they continue to die?"

Wang Duoyu has started to pay attention to the aquaculture industry again.

Desert greening is a complete process, and pig farming is the most indispensable step in it.

And it's actually raising pigs, not just for desert greening.

In the future, pig farming will gradually become one of the pillar industries of the Somali Peninsula.

In short, developing this area properly is always the right thing to do.

It's not easy to block the prying eyes of outsiders.

If a satellite launch base has been established on the Somali peninsula, but there are few pillar industries, even a fool would know something is amiss.

In the future, Want Want Group will make other arrangements to minimize scrutiny.

"Yes, the mortality rate of domestic pigs has decreased significantly now. It's mainly caused by heatstroke and other issues, which are relatively easy to resolve."

Wang Duoyu nodded after hearing this.

That's good!
Having problems is not scary. As long as you think of ways and try more, you can still solve these problems.

What's scary is not knowing where the problem lies and not actively trying to rectify it; that's definitely not acceptable.

After lunch, everyone rested for a while before the conference continued.

The afternoon session began with presentations from Daimler-Benz, BMW, Audi, and other companies that were considered "adopted sons" of the company.

Want Want Group has acquired many international brands, such as Comcast, Paramount, MGM, Marvel Studios, Target, Varian Medical Systems, Canon, and McDonald's.

And several military industrial enterprises such as the Tula Arms Factory.

However, after the Tula Arms Factory was acquired directly from Moscow, all personnel and production lines were relocated to Southeast Asia.

They will continue to pursue this strategy and acquire more brands in the coming years.

All the companies owned by the adopted sons had finished their reports by around 4 PM.

Compared to the biological son companies, the growth rate of adopted son companies like McDonald's is higher, reaching 23%.

Well, this level is not growing as fast as before, but the growth rate is still quite high.

"Okay, next up is O'Brien, head of Maple Capital. Let's give him a round of applause."

As Wang Meihe spoke, enthusiastic applause erupted in the conference room.

The smiles on everyone's faces were radiant, because everyone knew that this was definitely the highlight of the moment.

The speed at which people can make money in the financial industry is definitely what everyone is most looking forward to.

Every year at this time, everyone gets quite excited.

From Maple Tree Capital to Summit Global, then to Shuncai Fund, Quantum Technology, and finally to Lord of the Rings Bank in London.

After all the financial companies had submitted their reports, the total profit was quickly determined.

In 1994, the total profit of all financial companies under Maple Leaf Holdings Group was US$37.8 billion, an increase of US$4.2 billion over 1993.

Although it may not seem like much growth, it's already incredibly impressive.

clap clap clap!
The crowd erupted in applause; everyone was extremely excited.

"Professor, I wonder when an economic crisis will occur? It feels like I haven't enjoyed life for years."

Dylan Dario suddenly asked with a smile.

This issue has attracted widespread attention.

It seems that after 1992, the global economy began to level off. 1993 and 1994 have passed, and now it is 1995.

Therefore, everyone is indeed looking forward to an economic crisis.

For most people, an economic crisis is truly a survival crisis, but for Want Want Group, it is an opportunity.

Unfortunately, such a global economic crisis is not common.

"Let's wait another year or two."

Wang Duoyu said with a smile:
"If you carefully observe the economic and industrial structure of Southeast Asia, you will find clues, but don't rush to investigate."

"Based on my prediction, either by the end of this year or next year, Wall Street capital will definitely be eyeing Southeast Asia."

"Therefore, we should follow the movements of Wall Street capital and make arrangements six months in advance."

Or rather, in the past year or two, Want Want Group has already begun to establish a presence in the Southeast Asian market.

Upon hearing this, everyone was extremely excited.

Since Wang Duoyu brought this up, Southeast Asia does indeed need to be studied carefully.

Ellen Costa, however, focused on the phrase "industrial structure" that Wang Duoyu mentioned.

Clearly, this is the key point.

In other words, other countries may face similar crises.

As the head of the Velociraptor Fund, Allen Costa has a deep understanding of the economies of various countries, but at this moment he is completely baffled.

Perhaps he needs to go to Southeast Asia himself to see for himself in order to understand the situation and answer his current questions.

After the financial institutions finished their presentations, it was the research institutions' turn.

The Magic Research Institute and other institutions primarily provide crucial technical support and innovation for the industries under Want Want Group, Maple Leaf Holdings Group, and others.

However, judging from the grand vision that Wang Duoyu outlined before the start of the conference today, institutions such as the Future Technology Lab will usher in new development opportunities starting this year.

After all, Wang Duoyu mentioned so many cutting-edge technologies, all of which were unprecedented on Earth.

Whether it can be achieved is another matter, but a project will definitely be established and manpower will be gathered for research and development.

Throughout 1994, all these institutions published 1,320 professional papers, which were published in major journals.

More than two hundred of these papers are published in top-tier journals.

The company holds 420 patents, with annual revenue of $5.6 billion and profits of $1.08 billion.

Then came the arms trade, a major revenue generator, with total profits reaching $19.5 billion for the year.

It has increased significantly compared to 1993, which is good news.

Perhaps it's because major mercenary organizations around the world have spent a lot of money purchasing weapons.

This surge in profits is also due to the fact that these mercenary organizations have clashed with agencies such as the CIA.

After the arms trade comes the exciting super-dollar factory.

Martinez was being watched by everyone, and while he felt excited, he was also a little nervous.

"Over the past year, our super-dollar factory has been affected by various factors, printing a total of $123 billion in banknotes. However, due to soaring actual costs, coupled with the close monitoring of us by agencies such as the Security Bureau, our efforts have been hampered."

"Therefore, our total profit for the whole year was $89.2 billion."

hum!
The ceiling of the entire conference room was almost torn off.

A counterfeit money factory can generate more profit in a year than the world's richest person's net worth, which is simply astonishing.

Bill Gates' total net worth must have exceeded $80 billion, but so what?

The super dollar factory is too powerful; it can create a world's richest person in a year.

The applause continued, but Wang Duoyu had already seen the total profit of all Want Want Group's businesses.

The total revenue of all manufacturing companies was $142.9 billion, and the profit was $21.9 billion.

The total profit of the four major sectors—finance, arms sales, research institutions, and super-dollar factories—was $147.58 billion.

Adding the total profits of the manufacturing companies, the figure is US$169.48 billion, which is the total profit of Want Want Group in 1994.

In 1993, this figure was $1471.9 billion.

In comparison, the profits in 1994 were much higher and even more outrageous.

With such a large amount of profit, it is natural that it needs to be made good use of.

Li Efra, Zheng Baoyin, Yabo Fein, Martinez, and others are all very much looking forward to the technologies that Wang Duoyu mentioned, such as gene anti-aging, nanomedical robots, and controlled nuclear fusion.

Once these technologies are developed, it is almost certain that the global technological landscape will be rewritten.

They might even become influential figures on a global scale.

This anticipation made everyone very excited and even felt it was incredible.

"Okay, stop for a moment!"

Wang Duoyu reached out his hand, and the crowd immediately stopped applauding.

The meeting room quickly fell silent; you could hear a pin drop.

No one paid much attention to Wang Duoyu's control over the situation, because everyone admired him greatly.

It wasn't just Wang Duoyu's intelligence, but also his astonishing ability to control the overall situation and his predictions of the global situation.

"Now that the conference has come to a successful conclusion, I believe everyone knows what achievements we made in 1994."

"I won't go into detail about the outlook and goals for 1995, as I've mentioned them extensively in previous weekly meetings."

"Now I need to say a few more words about the high-tech things I mentioned before the conference started today."

"Those are indeed high-tech products that are capable of changing the world, but we don't have them. We still need to work hard on research and development to have any chance of achieving them."

"So we don't already have those technologies, you need to understand that."

"If anyone is not humble and acts recklessly, causing information leaks, then you are well aware of the rules of Want Want Group. Don't blame me for being ruthless then!"

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines, silently reminding themselves not to get carried away.

The most basic and simple truth that humility leads to progress is known even to elementary school students, but adults often become arrogant.

After all, there is an old Chinese saying: "Returning home in wealth and honor is like wearing brocade at night."

Nobody likes to show off their wealth in the dark; everyone hopes to return home in glory.

However, this balance needs to be carefully maintained.

"Starting this year, several institutions, including the Magic Institute, the Quantum Center, the Future Technology Lab, and the Hobbes Supercomputing Center, have begun recruiting top talent globally."

"A million-dollar annual salary is no problem. If you really have the talent and skills, a five-million-dollar or even ten-million-dollar annual salary is not an issue either!"

"From now on, we need to use money to create a new world!"

Upon hearing Wang Duoyu's words, everyone applauded, their eyes filled with fervent admiration. (End of Chapter)
