Meet Xu Bo, the Chinese video game tycoon who turned “leveling up” into a literal lifestyle. While most billionaires collect yachts or vintage cars, Xu decided to build the world’s largest private clan—rumor has it he’s fathered anywhere from “just over 100” (his modest company-approved count) to more than 300 kids, mostly via American surrogacy. He once changed his username to “Having More Children Solves Everything” and openly recruited girlfriends to produce “at least 50 high-quality sons” because, apparently, daughters don’t count toward inheriting a gaming empire. Move over, Genghis Khan—this guy’s going for the modern high score in progeny.
