Chapter - 5093

Furthermore, even though Elaine doesn't understand the internet, she has realized a trend and said with red eyes, "Hannah is a hen that has laid a golden egg... If this trend continues, it will only continue to grow. I'm afraid the eggs laid by this chicken will only get bigger and bigger... Now they're earning tens of thousands a day, maybe in a while they'll be able to earn hundreds of thousands a day, and then they'll be able to earn 100 million a year..."

At this point, Elaine broke down in tears and shouted, "God, how could you turn someone like Hannah around! You let a dog turn over, but not her!”

Claire couldn't stand it anymore and quickly comforted her, "Mom, let's focus on living our own lives well. Why bother with other people's affairs? Don't let other people's affairs affect your mood."

Elaine cried and said, "Can you believe it? She's making more money than me and it's making me uncomfortable! If God allows it, I would rather use my other leg to fix Hannah's problems and restore her to her original form."

Claire looked puzzled and asked, "Mom, why are you doing this?"

Elaine lay on the bed, sobbing, and said, "You don't understand. In my life, I've been bullied by two people: an old woman and Hannah. Everyone else in this world seems to be able to live well, but those two can't."

Charlie sighed to himself, thinking, "Downstairs, my father-in-law is crying like a baby because of the breakup. Upstairs, my mother-in-law is crying because she's jealous of Hannah. It doesn't look like today is going to be a good day for family harmony."

Suddenly, Elaine remembered something and exclaimed, "Damn it, I'm going to complain about her on TikTok! If that doesn't work, I'll go to the short video group's headquarters and protest by pulling a banner in front of their gates. I have to expose the lie. I don't believe that the boss of TikTok would allow such scammers to make money on their platform."

Charlie couldn't help but touch his nose when he heard this. The boss of TikTok she was talking about was actually himself. At the time, live e-commerce was not as popular, so he copied the concept. Now, live e-commerce is booming and TikTok has become the largest live sales platform in China. Its valuation has doubled or tripled and its own profits have exceeded 100 billion dollars.

Charlie knows that if he continues to hold onto TikTok and wait for the platform to have a three-year period of rapid growth, then when it goes public on Nasdaq, its market value will be at least 30 to 50 billion dollars or more. This is how capital makes money: spot a good project, buy it at a low price, and wait for the right opportunity.

For example, Peter Thiel, the investor who was the first to invest in Facebook's angel round, invested 500,000 dollars in Facebook and when he finally left the market, he had made one billion dollars, a return of 20,000 times. Charlie's mother is especially good at this. Most of the Silicon Valley companies she invested in have achieved growth of more than 10,000 times.

Since Charlie started TikTok early, he pays particular attention to the current live streaming scene. He knows that there are many anchors like Hannah on the internet who make up stories and create personalities in order to make money.

Even those super-rich people who post videos of their mansions and conduct live streams and sell goods on TikTok every day are ultimately just trying to make money. In fact, many of these "rich second generation" internet celebrities are just creations of celebrity brokerage companies.

As the boss of TikTok, Charlie knows that people like Hannah and the things they do are relatively low, but he also knows that this represents the direction of the market and the laws of business. After all, the vast majority of people in the country are ordinary working-class people or even peasants. This is the sinking market that all companies are vying for and it is also the target of internet celebrity anchors.

Many well-known internet companies failed in the past because they didn't make the right moves and eventually lost everything.
