Chapter 468 Pig's Knuckle Is a Very Awesome Guy (Part [-])
Shanda Group is now focused on building the "box", so it will naturally invest resources in a skewed manner, thus causing Shanda to lose its leading position in the Chinese online game market.

Shanda Group's move is tantamount to digging its own grave.

Therefore, since Shanda Group launched the "Box Project", Li Zetian no longer paid attention to Shanda Group.

At the beginning of January 2005, Li Zetian was busy browsing the financial statements of the major companies under his name.

It's not that Li Zetian is bragging, he really thinks he is so awesome! In 2004, the combined revenue of all the companies under his name reached more than 3 trillion US dollars, second only to the GDP of the United States and Japan.The GDP of the United States is as much as 12.27 trillion U.S. dollars, and that of Japan is 4.65 trillion U.S. dollars.

As for the net profit, it is as high as 3765 billion US dollars! ! !
This is really a rich country!
After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the Asian financial crisis in 1997, the Internet bubble in 2000, etc., plus years of accumulation, the cash reserves of umbrella companies have reached as much as 3.1415 trillion U.S. dollars, and Li Zetian’s net worth has exceeded 10 trillion U.S. dollars !

However, there is a lot of wealth in it that is not known to outsiders. For example, the money Li Zetian made during the collapse of the Soviet Union and the Asian financial crisis in 1997 is unknown to others.Money begets money, and this has made Li Zetian as rich as an enemy!

Right now, there is no doubt that Li Zetian is the richest business tycoon ever!Sometimes, when it comes to being busy, Li Zetian is busier than the President of the United States, but he does not have as much power as the President of the United States.

In fact, it is not easy to be the president of the United States. The "911 incident" had a great impact on the economy, politics and military of the United States.In the past few years, the US fiscal deficit has been very serious, leading to inflation and government debt.But even so, the United States still spends a huge sum of 6000 billion U.S. dollars every year as military expenditures to develop its military power and fight terrorists.

Li Zetian is a businessman, he does not need to support the army, but the mercenary organization of the umbrella international security company under his name has to make money for him instead.The Umbrella Mercenary Organization is well-known all over the world, especially in the Middle East and Africa, where it has become a guest of governments and anti-government armed organizations!

The price is clearly marked, as long as the money is paid, it will be fine even if it is to conquer the city.

The mercenary organization looks evil, but it is legal in the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and the United States.In fact, these countries have many things that are inconvenient to deal with, so they hire mercenaries.

With the financial support of Li Zetian, the Umbrella Mercenary Organization has a detached position in the field of mercenaries, and is recognized as the "King of Mercenary Organizations"!
In addition, there are many powerful mercenary organizations in the world that are secretly controlled by umbrella mercenary organizations, such as the American Blackwater, the Israeli IZO mercenary company, and the South African private armed company EO.

Without the emergence of Li Zetian and the umbrella, the American Blackwater, Israel IZO mercenary company, and South African private armed company EO in the previous life would have been the three largest mercenary companies in the world!And now they are all under Li Zetian's influence!
Sometimes, Li Zetian couldn't help feeling that if he launched a war against some countries with weak military power, it would be as simple as playing a game to abuse food.

Come to think of it, in the face of such a powerful force, the US government also has a little bit of fear.Right now, terrorists are so rampant, and Ben Ladeng has not been extinguished. It would be terrible if these mercenary organizations also became terrorist organizations.

Although Li Zetian did not become the president of the United States, he has mastered a powerful armed force, even more powerful than the president of the United States!The president of the United States will change in a few years. Without the status of president, his status has plummeted and he has been reduced to working for others in other companies.

Former U.S. President Clinton is still working in Li Zetian's company as a consultant or something. Li Zetian rewarded him with a bite of food, and now he is living a very chic life.

In a few years, President Bush Jr. will also step down, and a consultant position in a company under Li Zetian's name is already vacant...

Li Zetian enjoys the feeling that the presidents of the United States are reduced to his own employees. Of course, he does this not only because of his own feelings. As the saying goes, "a skinny camel is bigger than a horse". Super ability, but must have good political resources, for Li Zetian, it is very beneficial.

In addition, Li Zetian has another purpose. Just imagine, every president can serve as a consultant in his own company after leaving office, with an annual salary of several million or even tens of millions of dollars. how to think?If he frantically suppressed Li Zetian's business during his tenure, then after leaving office, not only would he not receive preferential treatment from Li Zetian, but he would also face a powerful enemy.

A phoenix on the ground is not as good as a chicken. After the president of the United States left office, except for a few people with a family background, how many dared to challenge the powerful consortium...?
The president of the United States is actually nothing. If Li Zetian had a whim one day, he might learn from Trump and run for the president of the United States for fun~~ However, Li Zetian has self-knowledge. Lively, the major consortiums in the United States and the citizens of the United States should not support his election as the President of the United States.

……

The climate in California has always been good, sunny all year round, with a maximum temperature of 1°C and a minimum temperature of 19°C in January.

In this year, Li Zetian plans to focus his work on industry.

With the current layout of Li Zetian on the Internet, it is already too powerful, and it is still necessary to give others a way to survive.Li Zetian intends to gradually hand over the Internet industry to William and Leisurely.Especially William, he talked with Li Zetian once, hoping to build a huge and indestructible community of interests by focusing on investment and supplemented by acquisitions.If you always eat alone, engage in monopoly, and make too many enemies, the business will not last long.

Li Zetian also agrees with this.

On the night of January 1th, Jobs turned on the phone to Li Zetian. In his report, Li Zetian learned that the iPhone smart phone developed by Apple has made a breakthrough, and a prototype will be produced in a few months. up.

Li Zetian was overjoyed when he heard the words.

An indisputable fact is that the iPhone has changed the world and people's way of life. It is indeed one of the great products of the 21st century!

Because of this, Jobs was "confessed into a god" and admired by countless people, which made Apple go to the top and become the world's largest company by market value! ! !
Even after Jobs passed away, his influence still exists.

But now, Li Zetian is going to replace Jobs, because he designed the iPhone, this great person is him...
