"When these players come in, I'll treat them myself. When the time comes, they can form a team with the rest of the team to play against another quasi-national football team. After all, they have participated in many top competitions, and they are very rich in skill and experience, which is a good thing for domestic players. Liu Tao said.

"Yes." Xia Xueqing nodded and said, "Your current ideas are becoming more and more mature. It seems that it won't be long before you become the richest man in the world. ”

"The richest man in the world is just a name. How much money does Bill, who is now ranked No. 1 in the world, have? It's just tens of billions of dollars. Is it possible to become the richest man in the world with tens of billions of dollars? The answer is no. There are many people in this world whose money is not visible, so they don't care who is the richest man in the world at all. They care about real impact. Liu Tao said with a smile.

"Are you talking about those big conglomerates in country M? There are also the big conglomerates in Europe and the Japanese countries. Xia Xueqing guessed.

"The consortia in country M are nothing, but the consortia in the Japanese country have some strength, but they are nothing compared to the consortia in Europe. Has the Rhodes heard of it? Liu Tao asked with a smile.

"I heard that this family is of Jewish descent." Xia Xueqing nodded and said.

"The Rhodes family doesn't have many assets in their hands, maybe only hundreds of billions of dollars. But with their complex ownership structure and branches around the world, they control trillions of dollars in assets. This figure is basically equivalent to the gross national product of Huaxia in a year. Liu Tao said.

"Trillions of dollars? Are there so many? Xia Xueqing couldn't believe her ears. Although she had read some biographies of the Rhodes family, it did not seem to mention that the family had so much money.

"Even if there is moisture, this number will not differ too much. Therefore, it is not difficult to become the richest man in the world, but it is indeed not easy to become the real richest man in the world. Liu Tao said.

"According to you, it is not easy. Trillions of dollars, I don't know how this money is made. Even if you make 10 billion dollars a year, it will take hundreds of years. Xia Xueqing stuck out her tongue and said.

"The Rhodes family has been around for one hundred and sixty years. If you make 10 billion dollars a year. That's $1.6 trillion. Anyway, no matter what, our Liu family will definitely surpass the Rhodes family. Liu Tao said with great confidence.

"Trillions of dollars, how can it be exceeded? Even if you put this amount of money in the bank, you can earn tens of billions of dollars in interest. It's not easy for us to make tens of billions of dollars. Needless to say, tens of billions of dollars, even billions of dollars are good. Xia Xueqing's confidence is obviously insufficient.

"The drug I developed will be available in two months. Until that time. It is estimated that it will not even take a month to make tens of billions of dollars. Of course, medicine is just one of my projects. I have other projects to make money. Liu Tao said.

"Can medicine make so much money?" Xia Xueqing asked.

"Absolutely. You know Viagra, right? Liu Tao nodded and asked rhetorically.

"Are you talking about the kind of medicine that can keep men fighting for a long time?" Xia Xueqing's face turned red all of a sudden.

"Yes. Now it costs more than 100 Huaxia coins to buy a viagra. If 100 million tablets are sold a year, it is more than 10 billion sales. It is important to know that the actual cost of drugs is very low, so if you look at it on a global scale. Viagra making tens of billions of dollars is not a problem. Liu Tao said.

"The key problem is that Viagra needs to be consumed in large quantities, but ordinary drugs are not? Could it be that the drug you developed is the same as Viagra? Xia Xueqing asked in surprise.

"It's not." Liu Tao shook his head and said, "The medicine I developed is for the treatment of cancer. ”

"What? Treating cancer? Xia Xueqing's eyes showed a hint of disbelief.

"Don't you know I'm going to treat cancer?" Liu Tao saw her surprised expression and asked with a smile.

"You're going to treat cancer, of course I know. But you're talking about the use of drugs to treat cancer. Are there any drugs that can treat cancer? Xia Xueqing asked.

"In ancient times, there were already people who could treat cancer, but all they needed were high-grade medicinal materials. It's like a thousand-year-old ginseng, which is basically impossible to find in society now. So even if there is a good prescription, there is no way to cure the disease. I don't have too many thousand-year-old ginseng in my hand now, but there are still a lot of hundred-year-old ginseng. As long as you wait another two months, a large batch of 100-year-old ginseng can be baked. Although the efficacy of the medicine is a little worse, as long as it is taken for a long time, it can still be cured. Liu Tao said.

"Are all cancers treatable?" Xia Xueqing asked with interest.

"It's not." Liu Tao shook his head. "The first batch of drugs I am preparing to launch is for the treatment of lung cancer and liver cancer," he said.

"Nowadays, people smoke so much, and the chance of developing lung cancer is also very high. However, how much does it cost to cure lung cancer completely? If the cost is too high, I'm afraid many people can't afford it. Xia Xueqing asked.

"The total cost of treatment for a patient is about 50,000 yuan." Liu Tao replied.

"Fifty thousand? So cheap? Now, if you have lung cancer and are treated in the hospital, you can't get it without hundreds of thousands. Xia Xueqing asked in surprise.

"Hundreds of thousands is basically an astronomical number for ordinary people. If we charge the same as hospitals, it will cost them their lives. Even if they can cure the disease, such a high cost of treatment is enough for them to pay it back in a lifetime, and such a life is really meaningless. So I think 50,000 yuan is enough. Liu Tao said with a smile.

"You really have the world in mind. But I want to know how much it costs? Xia Xueqing asked.

"It won't cost more than a thousand." Liu Tao replied.

"A thousand bucks, isn't it? According to you, isn't the profit very rich, it is simply a huge profit. Xia Xueqing said.

"The pharmaceutical industry is inherently profitable. Besides, I can't call it a profiteering, right? I just collected 50,000 yuan. And then cure everyone's cancer. 50,000 yuan, in today's society, is just one to two years' salary. When they are cured, they owe money. It can also be paid off within two to three years, and it will not have a heavy impact on life. Liu Tao said.

"When you say that, that's exactly what it is. Besides, the medicine you developed can cure cancer, and everyone's money is not unjust for that. You must know that many cancers are not cured at all. After a few years of treatment in the hospital, the money was spent, and eventually the person died. Left with a huge pile of debts to the family. It's really sad to watch. When Xia Xueqing said this, her eyes were red.

"Everyone has ideals in their hearts. But the reality is very cruel. Therefore, many people can only bury their ideals in their hearts. I now happen to have the ability to put my ideals into reality. Liu Tao said with a smile.

"There are many capable people, and not everyone is willing to think about others. Those very famous pharmaceutical companies make a lot of money every year, but how many are willing to spend money on charity?! The luckiest thing in my life is to meet you. Xia Xueqing's tone became soft.

"I will cherish my encounter with you. Tomorrow you may have to stay at home again. So I'll get everything done today. Liu Tao said.

"Hmm." Xia Xueqing nodded.

"By the way, I read the news yesterday that there are a lot of online novels now, and the online literature market has ushered in a blowout period. Could we consider acquiring a fiction website? Liu Tao asked.

"Buying a fiction website is not an easy task. After all, the prospects of this market are very good, just a few days ago, Penguin Group announced the official establishment of an original novel website, and the first investment was as high as 200 million. Xia Xueqing said.

"The fact that the Penguin Group is interested in a business proves that the market is really good. We can also set up an original fiction website and try to get a piece of the market. Liu Tao said.

"How much should we invest?" Xia Xueqing asked.

"Since Penguin Group has announced an investment of 200 million, we naturally can't afford to lose to each other. Invest 500 million. If your website is growing rapidly, you can continue to invest in it. Liu Tao thought for a moment and said.

"500 million investment, will it be a bit much? Although the online text market is booming now, the plate is still a little smaller after all. Xia Xueqing said.

"Whether the plate is big or not depends on everyone's entertainment life. How big was the film market in Huaxia before? It's only a few hundred million a year. What now? The box office of the movie has exceeded 30 billion. Now everyone's annual income has reached tens of thousands of yuan, and spending dozens of yuan to buy a movie ticket is nothing. The same is true for the online text market. As everyone earns more and more, spending a few dollars a month to read a book is nothing. Liu Tao said with a smile.

"If you put it this way, if 100 million people are willing to spend a few dollars a month on books. There are hundreds of millions of income a month, and billions of dollars a year. Of course, this is still a conservative estimate. After Xia Xueqing heard his words, she said.

"So. No one can tell how big this plate is. However, I believe that if you earn five or six thousand a month, spending a few or dozens of dollars to read books is really nothing. The revenue of the online literature market in the next year can reach tens of billions or even hundreds of billions. Liu Tao said confidently.

"Since you think the plate is so big, let's invest 500 million. The vast majority of the 500 million will be used to dig up authors, and it is estimated that several very powerful god-level authors can be dug up. Xia Xueqing said.

"It doesn't have to be real money to hire these writers. They can become top writers. Then you must have some money in your hands. I thought I could give them a stake in the fiction site. In this way, they are naturally willing to use the website as their base, and generally do not think about leaving. Liu Tao said.

"Shares are also money. Of course, the average site would rather give the author a little more money than give a stake. How many shares do you think can attract a top author to a site? Xia Xueqing asked.

"How much do top authors earn a year now?" Liu Tao asked rhetorically.

"The annual income should be between 10 million and 20 million." Xia Xueqing replied.

"The website has assets of 500 million, and if they are given 10% of the shares, they will choose to join." Liu Tao thought for a moment, and then said: "Of course, they can't sell these shares within five years. ”

"Wouldn't it be a loss for us to give them so much of a stake if they wrote a book that wasn't accepted by the market?" Xia Xueqing said with some concern.

"If they don't work hard, the site will definitely lose money. If a website loses 80 percent, it means that within five years they will lose 80 percent. All in all, the more money a website makes. Naturally, the more money they make. Liu Tao said with some disapproval.

"There are almost five top authors right now. If all five are poached, the company needs to come up with 50% of the shares. In that case, we will not have a controlling stake. Xia Xueqing said.

"You don't need so many top writers, just three. Just give them shares anyway. So 500 million cash is on the company's account. When the time comes, you can buy out a group of mid-range writers at a high price. Liu Tao said.

"Writers who buy out at a high price are basically losing money." Xia Xueqing reminded.

"I know." Liu Tao nodded and said, "The initial loss is very necessary. As long as you get through all the links, I believe it is still easy to make money. ”

"Links? What are you referring to? Xia Xueqing asked a little puzzled.

"I'm referring to mobile network operators such as Huaxia Mobile and Huaxia Telecom. Now these operators have established mobile reading platforms with a large number of readers. If you can make all the books on the website be serialized on this mobile reading platform, even if it is only a share. All are a great asset. Liu Tao said.

"There are so many novel websites nowadays, and most of the books are serialized on mobile reading platforms. Even if our book is serialized on it, it is estimated that it will not have a large share. Xia Xueqing said with some concern.

"We can sign exclusive contracts with companies like Huaxia Mobile and China Telecom, so that our books can get the most recommendations, so that we can get the biggest piece of the cake." Liu Tao said.

"You don't want to use those connections in your hands, do you?" Xia Xueqing asked.

"It's just a phone call." Liu Tao smiled slightly and said.

"Now that you have an idea in your mind, I naturally can't say anything more. Hopefully, the website will be successful. Xia Xueqing said with a smile. She knows very well in her heart how powerful Liu Tao's network resources are, and when the time comes, she just needs to lie down and make money.

For Liu Tao, the online text market is just a part of what he is involved in, and what he values more is some of the things behind the online text market. For example, online texts can be adapted into games. It can be adapted into a TV series, it can be adapted into a movie, and so on.

That's what interests him the most.

"Alright, I'll leave this matter to you." Liu Tao said.

"Yes." Xia Xueqing nodded.

Then, the two separated. Liu Tao went home, and Xia Xueqing went to the company.

When Liu Tao returned home, there was no one at home. It seems that everyone knows that today is the safest day, and tomorrow everyone will probably have to stay at home.

Liu Tao was not idle at home. He called his master, Mr. Lin, who was far away in the capital.

I haven't seen my master for so long, so naturally I have to say a few more words.

"Stinky boy! How did you remember to call me, this bad old man? Lin Guorong reproached.

"Master. Didn't your old man say that he wanted to come to Binjiang to live with us? Why haven't you come yet? Liu Tao asked aggrievedly.

"I've been busy all this time, and I guess I don't have time to pass." Lin Guorong replied.

"What are you doing with your old man? Do you need my help? Liu Tao asked.

"If you can help, that's the best. During this time, the Beijing Museum has been renovated, and all cultural relics need to be re-identified. Reclassifying really wears me out. Lin Guorong replied.

"Isn't it? There are so many collections in the Beijing Museum, if you re-appraisal, when will the appraisal be completed? Liu Tao was taken aback.

"We have identified most of them, and only a few have not yet been able to determine their authenticity. If you have time, it's best to make a trip. Help us identify them. Lin Guorong said.

"I'm afraid it won't work these days. Can you wait a few days? Liu Tao asked.

"Okay. There's nothing wrong with that. As long as you can come. Lin Guorong said.

"Then I'll call you when I go." Liu Tao said.

"Okay." Lin Guorong said.

The two sides then ended the call.

Liu Tao originally wanted to invite the master to Binjiang to watch the stone gambling competition, but seeing that the master was so busy, he was naturally embarrassed to speak.

There was no one at home anyway, so he sat down on the couch.

What he was most worried about now was the man named Jack.

From Roger's mouth, he already knew that the other party's boss was called Jack. As for what the identity of this Jack is, Roger himself can't understand.

It seems that only when this Jack comes to the door in person will he figure out what the other party is all about.

The other party obviously wants to seize his villa. If this goal is not achieved, the other party will never stop.

But if the other party wants to take away the villa, the only obstacle is himself. Only by killing oneself will the other party have a chance.

It seems that no matter what, he will become a thorn in the other party's side, and he must want to get rid of it quickly. (To be continued.) )
