Today's Future Mall has become the world's No. 1 online mall, although the future e-commerce empire Amazon has been listed, and the stock market is also performing well.

However, the valuation of the future mall is 4 times that of Amazon, and the sales volume is 3 times, which is a huge gap.

However, the sales of the future mall are not comparable to Wal-Mart and Carrefour, and Wal-Mart's sales have exceeded 100 billion US dollars, which is more than 60 times that of the future mall.

However, in the next few years, the development rate of online malls will far exceed that of physical retail, and the gap will be narrowed at an accelerated pace.

As long as nothing else, it is only a matter of time before Future Mall overtakes Walmart.

The number of employees at Walmart is currently the world's largest private company with more than one million, more than 20 times the number of employees in all of Xu Qing's companies.

The number of employees is an important layer of protection for private companies, and the higher the number of employees, the thicker the layer of protection.

Like Walmart, it affects not only millions of employees, but also their loved ones, which adds up to at least five million people.

If you add other businesses that rely on Walmart to survive, then Walmart affects more than 10 million people, if not more.

The importance of a company that can influence such people is undoubted, and others will think twice about it if they want to move.

Therefore, Xu Qing also wants to let the brick-and-mortar retail, which has already started, have such a number of employees at Walmart in the future.

Or Xu Qing's other companies have a core technology that can really impact the world.

Just like Microsoft now, its market capitalization is not as high as Future, but it is far more important than Future.

Even Apple, whose market value surpassed Microsoft in later generations, is not as important as Microsoft.

It's all because Microsoft has a core technology that can really impact the world, the indos system.

Without Apple mobile phones, there will be Android mobile phones to replace them, and more importantly, without Apple mobile phones, it will not affect the operation of human society.

There may be a moment when some of the companies that depend on Apple for survival go out of business and lose their jobs, but these people will soon be hired by other companies.

As for the companies that go out of business, there are so many companies in the world that go out of business every day, and when they go out of business, they go out of business.

Without the indos system, well, the functioning of human society will definitely be affected because a lot of things require the indos system.

Of course, neither the Indos system nor Apple will suddenly disappear, and if they disappear, it means that someone has replaced them, and there will be no problems with the functioning of society.

Xu Qing just used this way to illustrate the importance of having core technologies that affect the world.

The next few decades will be the world of the Internet, and if you want to have core technologies, you can basically only consider it in the Internet field.

Other fields such as automobiles, gaming, dining, clothing, etc., even if they have core technologies, will not be able to truly impact the world.

All this is because the Internet can be connected to all industries, and the automotive and gaming industries are relatively few.

In Xu Qing's current position, he no longer only thinks about the company's profits.

He wants to truly take control of his own destiny!

No matter how difficult the road is, it will go on!

Xu Qing came to the Future Mall, walked around, expressed his praise for the Future Mall, and then left.

In the afternoon, Xu Qing went to the construction site of the office building in the Bay Area to inspect the construction progress of the building.

Now that the number of employees in Xu Qing's major groups is increasing, the rented office buildings are a little insufficient.

Moreover, the valuation of Xu Qing's company, with a combined market value of more than 100 billion US dollars, does not have an office building that completely belongs to him, which is a bit faceless.

However, the construction of the office building is not in a hurry, and it cannot be built overnight.

Xu Qing can only invite more construction workers, so that the construction team is not afraid of spending money, and uses as much technology as possible that can speed up the construction progress, of course, the premise is quality.

After inspecting the construction site, Xu Qing returned to the villa and told Sophia about the sales of her mobile phone and notebook in the Future Mall.

Sophia cares a lot about TH Group and knows a lot about the mobile phone and laptop market, and she is very happy to know that this sales figure is very good.

Xu Qing took advantage of Sophia's happiness and put her ears to her stomach to listen to the baby's voice.

Maybe it's because the baby feels the mother's happy mood and is very active in the belly, Xu Qingyi sticks it and hears the sound of the baby kicking the belly.

Xu Qing laughed softly: "Good daughter, you are very naughty, you dare to kick your mother's stomach, and I will beat your little ass when you come out." ”

When Sophia heard Xu Qing's words, she also smiled and said, "Are you willing to spank the baby's little buttocks?"

Xu Qing replied without hesitation: "Of course I am not reluctant, but if it is a boy, I will beat it hard." ”

Sophia rolled her eyes and said in Mandarin: "There is a saying in Huaxia that is called patriarchy, and you are patriarchal." ”

Xu Qing smiled and said: "What's so good about my son, my daughter is the intimate little padded jacket, and I will give her everything in the future." ”

The two chatted for a while, and when it was time for lunch, the two went to the restaurant.

Sophia's lunch is specially prepared, made by her mother and an expert, to ensure that it is nutritious and delicious.

As for Xu Qing's lunch, it may taste even better than Sophia's lunch, after all, Xu Qing's lunch does not need to be absolutely guaranteed to be nutritious, and ingredients can be put in it, and Sophia's lunch is absolutely without any ingredients.

Fortunately, my mother's cooking skills have improved by leaps and bounds after retirement, and Xu Qing has tasted Sophia's lunch once, and the taste is no worse than that of a big restaurant.

The family was happily eating lunch, and it felt good that all the Xu family members were here.

It's that my cousin's family has moved to the apartment, more than half an hour away from the villa, and comes to the villa for dinner once a weekend, otherwise it will feel better.

After lunch, Xu Qing came to Black Pearl's room again, Black Bean was lying next to Black Pearl, looking at Big Black and Little Black with a loving face.

Like black beans, black pearls have grown up together since childhood, and the children they give birth to, black beans are felt.

It won't be like some male dogs, with their own children in front of them, and they don't know that they are their own children.

Da Hei and Xiao Hei are both male dogs, shouldn't Hei Bean be a son slave, Xu Qing thought.

Big Black, Little Black's eyes haven't opened yet, and they can't walk yet, and they're crawling on the sponge mat, which is very interesting.

Most creatures are very cute in their infancy.

Dogs, as human pets, are not to mention in terms of cuteness.

Xu Qing has already been conquered by the cuteness of Da Hei and Xiao Hei, and teasing them has become a must-do for Xu Qing every day, and it is also a way for Xu Qing to decompress.

Don't look at Xu Qing's cheerful appearance every day, in fact, he is under a lot of pressure, such as thinking about how to spend money every day.

This is not an easy thing to do, so Xu Qing is really under pressure.
