This thing can certainly make life better and provide people with no worries about food and clothing, but it cannot solve all the troubles. People often say "talking about money is boring", but to them, this thing is really boring.
The money earned from Japan this year has surpassed the Federal Reserve's annual revenue. It would take more than twenty ten-ton trucks to pull back that much money. And this was just a small deal Han Chudong made out of boredom. After all, unlike the IC, IT industry, luxury goods, and beauty products, where you can make money continuously and it's over once it's over. It's hard to come across such a good thing.
Speaking of the "Kyushu Agreement" in which the signing location was changed to Kyushu Island, which was the beginning of the appreciation of the yen, the reasons behind it are very complicated. In fact, the Japanese officials also contributed to the process of facilitating the agreement and took the initiative to express their willingness to appreciate by 10 to 20 percent. The reason why Han Chudong was able to earn so much was that the trade deficit still existed after the appreciation of the yen, and Japan's assets became overheated, causing the assets he invested in to appreciate significantly. Coupled with the appreciation of the yen itself, these together constituted Han Chudong's profit.
This money is still scattered around the world in the form of international hot money, of which nearly one billion US dollars was brought to China to build hotels and shopping malls in the city centers of major cities. Although the nature of the land is still unclear, it did receive some very favorable treatment, partly because of the large amount of foreign exchange it brought in. Now Han Chudong is quietly increasing his investment in China and is waiting for the wave of shareholding reform to arrive, intending to enter some pillar industries that may be very profitable in the future.
As part of its global layout, Han Chudong's assets have long been spread across major countries and markets. For example, after the merger with France's L'Oréal, Rainbow-L'Oréal Group was listed in France, but its registered address was moved to Puerto Rico to avoid taxes.
He also invested in telecommunications companies as well as automobile, energy and real estate businesses in the UK, with assets totaling more than 6 billion US dollars. He also invested in a bank and an insurance company in Switzerland. On Wall Street, he invested in private equity funds, traditional funds, insurance, securities, etc. He is also a small shareholder of South Korea's Samsung Group and continues to hold shares in Japan's Toyota Motor. He also holds a small stake in Daimler Benz Group in Germany. He also invests in Germany's insurance, private equity funds, and banking industries, with a total scale of about 3.5 billion US dollars.
It can be said that with such a business record, Han Chudong's own business can compete with the bottom few of the top ten American conglomerates. Therefore, in recent years, a new term has emerged, called "Mason Consortium", and has been widely accepted by people.
With such high exposure, Han Chudong is increasingly unwilling to show up in public. He usually goes to the company headquarters or stays at home to work remotely over the phone. He recently bought a piece of land in the city, and after demolishing apartments and old buildings, he plans to build a new landmark. In New York, he bought the Chrysler Building and drove out all the tenants at a high price. It is now undergoing a comprehensive renovation.
People rarely consider whether they can do it or not, and the focus is more on whether they want to do it or not. The pace of expansion has not stopped. In the second half of this year, in addition to being busy building the civilian Internet, it also purchased shares of Verizon Communications and Hilton Hotels Group.
As for enemies, there are definitely some, and they will cause him some minor troubles from time to time, but Han Chudong controls the media group and is even more rampant in Washington. He has already had conflicts of interest with a group of giants, and they are all tied to the same boat, so it can't be said that he is that dangerous.
Especially when Han Chudong keeps donating money and materials and marketing his own image, it is definitely not a good idea to make an enemy of him.
Life is leisurely and carefree.
One day in late November 1985, Han Chudong turned on a specially made high-performance computer before going to bed.
No expense was spared in manufacturing, and all aspects of performance were optimized. The central processing unit came from Intel, and it was a next-generation product that had already been developed. He had already used it before it was even released to the public.
Unlike the previous life when he was groping for development, Han Chudong has straightened out many detours. Currently, more than 2,000 computers connected to this network can send emails to each other, and can also quickly access the personal website they want through his portal. Most of the companies under his control have established promotional websites, which are very simple but very novel. Chat tools are also under development.
Although the era of widespread Internet application has just begun, Han Chudong can already foresee that his business in this field will most likely be split up due to monopoly one day in the future.
There is no other way. After all, the development path that is difficult for others is gold everywhere in his eyes. It is too easy to make money in this field. He has been involved in everything from IC to IT industries, and the scale is not small.
Although the blue giant IBM is now eyeing the personal computer market and wants to cut off from Han Chudong, it ultimately still uses Intel's processors and Microsoft's operating system for Orange computers.
Yes, Microsoft.
Poor Bill Gates and Steve Jobs of Apple, their development opportunities were taken away by Han Chudong, so that their names never appeared at all, and no one knows what they are doing now. Anyway, they have probably become ordinary and unknown people, living ordinary lives.
Han Chudong first downloaded the real-time stock program and looked at the recent stock price trends of the companies he held shares in, which involved more than 20 billion US dollars in assets. After reading it, he went to the forum to see if there was any new news.
After playing the video games produced by Aurora Games for a while, he put on his pajamas and lazily went to find his son, ready to take the little guy out for a walk in the yard.
Speaking of Aurora Games, with the popularity of home game consoles, its valuation has reached about 1.2 billion US dollars, but it is not listed.
It launched more than 30 small games and became a well-deserved giant in the field of electronic games. In contrast, Atari had already lost its market share in the arcade field to other businessmen. Everyone knew that the businessman named Bushnell had no credit and had cheated Han Chudong. Currently, the Atari Arcade Company was close to bankruptcy, but Bushnell was still wealthy thanks to the profits of that year.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
As Aurora Games became increasingly popular, it became the best-selling gift every Christmas, and Bushnell's betrayal of Han Chudong had become a joke among people.
It must be said that Han Chudong's words "Those who are close to me are rich" written in Mason Private Equity Fund are indeed convincing. Anyone who invested in Mason Private Equity has made a lot of money...
