Chapter 305 The Essence of People's Livelihood
Three months back, the Gemini APP hit the brakes on its expansion for a year.
They said it was to regroup and strengthen their base. But really, Elbert just didn't want to push things too far.
During this time, the Gemini APP's user base kept growing steadily, with a crazy high retention rate.
The user count was nearing 1.2 billion, with over 80% of them active daily. It had become a massive part of people's lives, acting almost like a second home.
Any new user who stumbled upon the Gemini APP and gave it a shot would find themselves totally hooked.
The app's core algorithm could accurately understand exactly what users wanted, amplifying their needs exponentially. It created such a strong connection that stopping use seemed almost unthinkable.
The internet and business worlds were starting to get the Gemini APP's model.
The growth of the Gemini APP was rock solid!
The Gemini app offered a range of features that worked seamlessly together, including dance, music, live streaming, and more. No matter what users started, they quickly became dedicated fans of the Gemini app.
Unlike other companies that created a bunch of different apps, leading to a scattered mess, the grand vision of accommodating everything was already taking shape.
As for the operation of the Gemini APP, it was a bold move from the start.
No financing, no IPO, no need to seek any partner's opinion. No need to disclose operational data to anyone! One hundred percent privately owned!
According to outside estimated, the current annual revenue capability of the Gemini APP had surpassed $250 billion, which even beat the annual GDP of many small countries.
The craziest part was that the Gemini APP went from nothing to this point in less than half a year.
And the leader of the Gemini APP, the legendary Paul Three, had been silent for a long time, leaving countless internet companies with no choice but to pray that he would never re-emerge.
The only one who thought he understood the true strength of the Gemini APP was Jacob, but even his understanding was limited.
Elbert knew very well that there were several technologies in the Lab Graveyard that, once combined with the Gemini APP, would cause a massive shake-up in the entire internet industry. It could potentially leave no room for other companies!
Even though Elbert temporarily halted the expansion of the Gemini APP, he didn't hold back Witness.
The so-called 'Queen of Investment,' Elowen, was always wildly ambitious. She led Witness Company in a frenzy of investments!
In the past three months, they had invested in and acquired shares in over a hundred internet APP companies, covering various fields.
Of course, these were all business secrets. Regular folks didn't know that a hidden giant was quietly gathering strength, poised to dominate the future.
As for Alvin's concerns, Elbert totally got it.
A company couldn't stay out of the spotlight for too long. Even the weaker Meta Platforms Company had heroes as spokespeople.
If the Gemini APP stayed silent, it would look weak.
But first off, the Creator wasn't that fragile.
Secondly, Elbert didn't really trust this Stellar Genetics Corporation. With things being so chaotic, it was best to wait and see for a bit.
Sure enough, after Elbert convinced Alvin to hold off, big news started rolling in internationally.
Following BioGen Innovations, many powerful countries held press conferences, claiming they had cracked human evolution technology.
Seraphine's 'War Eagle', Castilia's 'Statue'—it was like they all decided to announce it at the same time.
Every major country was showcasing their trump cards
The seismic changes of this time continually challenged people's perceptions.
Meanwhile, Veridiania made a series of puzzling moves.
First, Victoria's BioGen Innovations chose to hold a press conference in Veridiania.
Second, Veridiania, a significant country, had no reaction at all!
But the public quickly got used to it. Someone even created an online ranking of heroes from various countries, no particular order for now.
But it was clear that in the future, this list would rank heroes based on events.
Elbert quietly watched these 'gene companies.' When he was at the border, Gary had mentioned many of them.
Clearly, these announcements seemed to be made in the name of companies, but there were countries backing them in the shadows.
Just as Elbert had predicted, the situation was chaotic.
Elbert shook his head, deep in thought.
No matter how the world changed, the foundation of people's survival wouldn't change.
Heroism was just spiritual sustenance!
Elbert predicted the future: The foundation of people's livelihood-the integration of technology and life!
Then, Elbert drove towards the Black Fox Gang headquarters.
When he got to the 5th floor of Luminous Hall, he heard a childish voice, "I've told you many times, without fingerprint identity verification, the butler system won't follow your orders!"
"Sorry, I always forget," another man replied.
Elbert was puzzled and pushed open the door.
The former banquet hall had been turned into a large conference room, with dozens of Black Fox members sitting neatly.
There was also a row of various machines ahead of him.
Dennis was sitting on one of the machines, his legs not reaching the ground, slightly swinging.
The person he was talking to was a leader of the Black Fox Gang, nicknamed Mad Bull.
At that moment, Mad Bull was standing obediently beside Dennis.
Elbert slowly walked in.
The Black Fox members immediately stood up and said in unison, "Mr. Paul Two!"
Elbert nodded slightly and walked to the boy's side.
The boy was wearing a leather vest with a tattoo showing on his shoulder.
Elbert frowned, "What's going on?"
Mad Bull chuckled and said, "The boy said he wanted to do as the Romans do; the tattoo is a sticker."
Elbert raised an eyebrow.
