After much deliberation, Henry decided to establish a state in Madagascar. Don't make unnecessary sacrifices even if you let the elite Blackwater troops withdraw from Somalia. As for how to occupy Madagascar, Henry has also considered it.

Madagascar is the least developed country in the world. Henry gave some assistance to Madagascar in the image of a charity ambassador to win the respect and love of the local people. At the same time, a large number of Blackwater members were sent to sneak into Madagascar, and with the help of hackers, they tampered with their identity data and became members of the country. Then, with Henry's secret support, he provoked conflicts between political parties, squeezed out others through various methods such as bribery and assassination, quickly climbed to a high-level position, and finally launched an army mutiny to seize power...

Although this is time-consuming, it is the safest.

Afterwards, millions of Blackwater members could immigrate to Madagascar, and with the support of these Blackwater members and their own financial resources, Henry could take over Madagascar and establish a monarchy. Brunei, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Swaziland, Vatican and other countries with a monarchy. In a monarchy, the ruler monarch (often called a king or emperor) has all the powers to rule the country and civil liberties, and the throne is hereditary! Henry has worked so hard to lay down a country, how could it be possible for others to take advantage of it! ! !

If the country develops well, taxation alone will cost trillions of dollars a year!

In the past, I paid taxes to others, but now I collect taxes from others. It’s cool to think about it!

At the same time, it is possible to build a powerful army justifiably, without needing to do it secretly. The deterrent power is much stronger than before!

Telecommunications, railways, hospitals, electricity, water, etc. are all owned by the monarch, and they are 100% monopolized. How much money can they make every year...

If the population is large and the land is too small, you can use the name of the country to buy land from other countries, just like the United States bought Alaska from Russia, and it will become a permanent asset of your own country! However, I'm afraid this is unnecessary, Henry's ambition is in space. Build cities in the future and carry out interstellar immigration!

Henry's decision was made, so he sent tens of thousands of spies trained by Blackwater into Madagascar, and slowly figured it out! And in the future, Blackwater members will continue to be sent to immigrate, and the entire Madagascar will be infiltrated to the end!

Madagascar's coastline is extremely long, and its coastal defense forces are almost non-existent. Black water can easily transport people into this country.

As time passed, the plan to overthrow the regime in Madagascar has quietly begun! ! !

...

At the end of 2000, all the annual financial statements of the company under Henry's name had been sent over.

In the past six months after Henry was attacked, the development of the company had certainly been affected to a certain extent, but these companies operated independently and were doing well, so the losses were not too great. Compared with last year, the combined revenue of all companies this year is as high as 1.5 trillion U.S. dollars, and the net profit is 280 billion U.S. dollars. The revenue has decreased, but the net profit has increased. The company set aside $100 billion for growth and the rest as dividends. And Henry's personal dividend income is 130 billion U.S. dollars, and after paying 30 billion U.S. dollars in taxes, the funds in hand will be 100 billion U.S. dollars.

So far, Henry has $420 billion in cash reserves, and the IRS still owes him $250 billion!

With such a huge amount of money, Henry can earn tens of billions of dollars every year just from the bank interest!

Henry took a special look at the annual reports of 3721 and Baidu. These two companies are about to spend all their investment.

Under Zhou Hongyi's series of rogue methods, 3721 has developed rapidly, and its market share far exceeds that of Baidu, accounting for 35%, while Baidu only has 10%. Although Isearch still occupies 51% of the market share, it has been persecuted and suppressed by the Chinese government many times, and its market share has been seriously lost. The future situation is very bad.

Henry is determined to let Isearch withdraw from the Chinese market, but before that, he has to win more shares of Baidu. It happened that Baidu and 3721 had run out of money and needed financing again. At this time, Henry sent someone to inquire about the Tencent company established by Ma Huateng, and the company was in a miserable state. The instant messaging software launched by Tencent was originally called OICQ, a counterfeit ICQ name, to confuse the public, so that other people could be fooled and register as their users. As a result, I was sued by ICQ, and finally changed my name to QQ.

Today, unlike previous lives, ICQ entered the Chinese mainland market relatively early, and there is no living soil for QQ at all. The reason why ICQ failed in China in the previous life was that chat records and even friends were only saved in the computer that was being used at that time. If you change to another computer, the friends and chat records are gone. Europeans and Americans can afford personal computers, which is not a serious problem, but in China, there are only Internet cafes. ICQ doesn't make sense if it doesn't fail...

Under Henry's leadership, ICQ is already using cloud data, and any records of users are stored in the data center.

Moreover, Chinese netizens use ICQ software to chat not only with domestic friends, but also with foreign friends. Even if you don't know a foreign language, there is no problem. At the beginning, ICQ hired more than 30,000 translators to perfect the online automatic translation function as much as possible. Send Chinese characters to the past, and the other party will automatically translate them into the native language. What's even more powerful is that the Siri voice translation function has also been launched.

Most countries in the world can use ICQ to communicate with each other!

So far, ICQ global users have reached 650 million, has monopolized the world!

QQ is completely incomparable with ICQ.

Now Tencent is almost on the verge of death, and it is said that it is conducting a cheap sale, but no one is willing to buy it! Henry thought about it, out of sentimentality, I should buy QQ, or keep it as a collection.

Henry then ordered icq China Branch to acquire Tencent, and at the same time told his subordinates to let Ma Huateng stay in Tencent and let him work for him. How can I say that Ma Huateng is also a talent, a well-known counterfeit master, he can be regarded as the only general in China in the future!

When it was over, Henry immediately called Robin Li to discuss the second round of financing. Henry proposed that Weifeng Capital led the investment, including Blackstone, and Hong Kong Kowloon Investment Company jointly invested US$20 million in Baidu, holding a total of 50% of the shares.

Baidu's situation is not so good. Compared with it, the 3721 website has developed rapidly and is favored by investors from all over the world. Many venture capital companies have approached them to discuss financing plans. If Baidu wants to catch up, it needs a lot of money to invest in technology and advertising.

When Li Yanhong first received the phone call, he was a little uneasy. Both Baidu and 3721 were Henry's investment targets. Today, Baidu is far from 3721, and Li Yanhong is a little worried that Henry will no longer support Baidu.

Just because Li Yanhong understood Baidu's situation very well, he was very pleasantly surprised when he heard that Henry was willing to invest 20 million US dollars in Baidu. He knew that Henry did not give up on Baidu, and even valued Baidu more. In order to get Henry's approval and support, Li Yanhong immediately agreed to Henry's conditions on the phone.

After finishing the phone call with Robin Li, Henry contacted Weifeng Capital, Blackstone, and the Chinese branch of Hong Kong Kowloon Investment Company, and ordered them to send representatives to Baidu to sign a financing agreement. After signing the agreement, Henry indirectly controlled 67.5% of Baidu's shares through a number of companies! ! !

Shenzhen.

Tencent, which was on the verge of bankruptcy, welcomed a foreigner in a suit on this day.

"Mr. Ma Huateng, hello, I'm Smith!"

"Hello, Mr. Smith, what is your business in our company?" Ma Huateng asked doubtfully.

"I want to buy this company! This is my business card. I am the representative of ICQ, and I am fully responsible for the acquisition of Tencent!" Smith said, "However, we have one requirement for the acquisition of Tencent. I hope Mr. Ma Huateng, Mr. Zhang Zhidong And Tencent's founder team joined ICQ, if you agree, we can sign the contract now."

The other party turned out to be someone from ICQ company? ! !

Ma Huateng and the others were shocked! They never expected that the famous ICQ company would be willing to acquire Tencent.

"I would like to ask, after ICQ acquires Tencent, how will QQ software be handled?" Zhang Zhidong asked.

"Do you think you need to use QQ when you have ICQ?" Smith asked with a smile.

ICQ has a huge number of users in China, is well-known, and has a strong brand. It is impossible to promote QQ anymore. ICQ's acquisition of Tencent can gain some users and talent, and Tencent is not expensive, so we bought it.

Smith went on to say: "QQ software is considered to be very good among Chinese instant messaging software, and ICQ wants to realize the localization strategy in China, and naturally needs talents who understand China very well. The founding team of ICQ is a very good choice! Mr. Ma, you may wish to think carefully! I believe that joining ICQ, a big company, will have a huge impact on your future career planning!!!”

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, Ma Huateng nodded first and said: "Okay, I have no problem, I am willing to join ICQ."

As soon as Ma Huateng spoke, the rest of the people followed suit and expressed their willingness to join ICQ.

So Smith proposed a contract with them on the spot and bought Tencent.

So far, two of the BATs have been acquired by Henry, and Li Yanhong and Ma Huateng are both working for Henry.

As for Ma Yun, the Taobao website he founded is in a difficult situation under the pressure of Amazon, eBay and Alibaba.

At present, the situation of Taobao.com is poor logistics, many fake products, and bad reputation.

All kinds of problems that existed in the early days of China's e-commerce can be found on Taobao. However, Nicholas International E-Commerce has done a good job in service, through self-operated methods to eliminate fakes, supervise merchants, launch a credit system, and big data services, etc., allowing customers to use Taobao and the three websites of Nicholas International E-Commerce Totally two experiences.

"Taobao is cheap." "Buy fakes, go to Taobao." and other joking sentences spread on the Internet, and Taobao developed by relying on fakes. Because many Chinese people know that it is a fake, but the picture is cheap, so they will still buy it.

In this regard, Henry is also helpless. Users have no money, so they can't force them to buy authentic products...

With the development of China's economy and the improvement of people's living standards, people's pursuit of material things will increase accordingly. At that time, Taobao, known as "fake goods", will fall into a very difficult situation. Customers themselves will know how to choose, and Nicholas International E-commerce can win without a fight!
