Next was Good Hearing Music, with an annual revenue of ten billion and a net profit of 1.9 billion.
Last year it was 9.8 billion; it has grown somewhat.
Nuomi Comics, annual revenue of one billion, net profit of 200 million.
Three billion less than last year.
It must have been influenced by short videos.
Mei Zhu Mobile Phones, annual revenue of 95 billion, net profit of 31 billion.
...
Chips, annual revenue of 90 billion, net profit of 50 billion.
Revenues up by 30 billion compared to last year, with net profits up by more than ten billion.
Real estate projects (including hotels and amusement parks), annual revenue of nine billion, net profit of 3.8 billion.
Last year it was over 300 billion; naturally, there was a significant decrease this year because Jiang Xu sold many of the shops.
E-commerce Blueprintâs total revenue was 720 billion, with a net profit of 16 billion (after the division of shares that went to Jiang Xu).
Last yearâs revenue was over 600 billion, and the net profit was 20 billionâalso a significant increase.
Everyday Headlinesâ total revenue was 850 billion, net profit 29 billion.
Quick Soundâs total revenue was 100 billion, net profit 79 billion.
The strongest is still Quick Sound, with revenues nearly doubling.
All totaled, 2,816 billion!
After reviewing the annual financial report, Jiang Xu finally let out a sigh of relief.
Apart from the reduced revenue in comics, the remaining industries were all moving forward steadily.
Especially Quick Sound, the growth was simply too explosive.
Now, there are hundreds of thousands of businesses advertising on it every day.
After sharing a portion with the creators, the bulk of the remaining profit went straight into Jiang Xuâs pocket.
And now that 5G and mobile phones have not yet fully spread.
According to the latest survey results, there are still over four hundred million people in the country without a mobile phone.
Once this group of people also get phones, the entire internet pool will be able to grow substantially.
The cost of mobile phones is still too high for many rural people at present.
Thinking it over, Jiang Xu contacted Wang Zhang.
He asked him to launch another smartphone capable of browsing short videos, with decent performance, priced between 399 and 499 with a large screen.
The groupâs net profit was over 280 billion last year.
After paying taxes, about 220 billion or so ended up in Jiang Xuâs personal account.
With this amount of money, the development of Agricultural Country for the next one to two years wouldnât be a problem.
(Please disregard some real-world issues, such as the impossibility of transferring such a large sum of money).
Jiang Xu, in a great mood, ordered a cup of Luckin Coffee for everyone in the company.
He sent one to Jiang Xuâs office as well.
After a few sips, it was gone.
Jiang Xu spat, âDamn it, so much ice.â
He called Jiang Xiaoyan.
Jiang Xiaoyan seemed busy.
No answer on the first try, she picked up on the second.
âMissing me already, babe?â
As soon as the call connected, a rather greasy voice came from Jiang Xiaoyan on the other end.
âNo, youâre overthinking it,â Jiang Xu said irritably, âI just wanted to ask if youâre coming back for the New Year this year?â
Sheâd probably be very upset spending New Yearâs in a foreign land all by herself.
Jiang Xu was even more afraid of whether she might have an emotional problem.
Losing control and hurting herself.
âI canât get away,â Jiang Xiaoyan said helplessly, âThereâs just too much to deal with. Why donât you come and keep me company?â
Jiang Xu: âI canât do that, Iâm tied up too.â
âYou dog of a man, I hate you!â
With that, Jiang Xiaoyan hung up the phone.
Her temper flared up suddenly, catching one off-guard.
Jiang Xu wasnât angry.
He had long known what kind of person Jiang Xiaoyan was.
He pocketed his phone and went out.
He arrived at the largest supermarket nearby.
He went on a shopping spree.
Snacks of all sorts, drinks, jellies, and such.
He practically cleared out the supermarketâs snack aisle.
Then he went upstairs to the upscale womenâs clothing stores and emptied two shops.
He had all these items packed up and sent along with the next cargo ship carrying supplies to Agricultural Country, as gifts for Jiang Xiaoyan.
Maybe bringing her some gifts would slightly ease her unhappiness about not being able to come home for the New Year, right?
This yearâs Chinese New Yearâs Eve would fall on February 19, which was more than two months away.
An Nuonuo sent him a message: âHusband, when are you coming home? I have some good news to tell you.â
By the time Jiang Xu saw the message, he was almost home.
He walked through the door and couldnât wait to lift her onto the dining table.
The house was heated so she was dressed quite lightly.
In pale red velvet pants.
And a white knitted sweater on the upper body.
The fit was as tight as yoga clothes.
Especially that baby bunker, which was incredibly eye-catching.
In visual terms, it provided an exceptionally powerful impact.
Jiang Xu, looking at her provocative figure paired with that pure face, didnât conceal the greed in his eyes.
He was about to test whether this dining table was sturdy enough and could hold up.
âDonâtâ¦â An Nuonuo stopped him, âHusband, I have something very important to tell you, but you have to promise not to get angry or hit me after I say it.â
âHmm, what is it?â Jiang Xu asked curiously. âAs long as you donât betray me, I wonât get angry about anything.â
âYou said it.â An Nuonuo felt relieved, âIâm pregnant, I just went for a check-up~â
âWhat?!â Jiang Xu was stunned. âHow come? Donât we always take precautions?â
An Nuonuo blushed, âLast week, we ran out and didnât~â
Jiang Xu remembered.
But he had been careful to pull out in time then.
Could a slight contact have led to pregnancy?
At the time, Jiang Xu didnât give it much thought.
Because in the past, they had gone several years without any protection before An Nuonuo got pregnant.
So he thought it wouldnât happen so quickly this time.
But unexpectedly, accidents can catch you off guard.
âHusband, arenât you happy?â An Nuonuo asked softly.
She saw that Jiang Xuâs expression was serious and not pleased.
âCompared to this, Iâm more worried about whether your body can handle it,â Jiang Xu sighed, âEspecially since itâs only been half a year since you gave birth to our two daughters.â
âYou donât have to worry about that,â An Nuonuo said as she wrapped her legs around Jiang Xuâs waist to bring them closer.
Said, âWith all the good food and care, my body has long recovered.â
âAnd we both had two doses of the enhanced âJing Bing,â remember?â@@novelbin@@
Jiang Xu thought about it and agreed.
He teased her by flicking her nose: âThen Iâll thank my wife on behalf of the Jiang Family for carrying another great treasure for us.â
Full of longing, An Nuonuo said, âI hope itâs a son so we can stop after that.â
Two daughters, a son, and a husband who adores her.
An Nuonuo felt that the family was already perfectly complete.
Having too many sons could be problematic.
She didnât want to see brothers killing each other over inheritance disputes.
Jiang Xu focused on her cherry lips, âLetâs set aside other matters for now; wife, you first help meâ¦â
