Does it mean "total mobile sales are zero". If so, is it paradoxical with what was said in the second sentence, which is $100M?

According to Fung Global Retail, the warehouse club sector is expected to generate $191 billion in revenues in 2017. But according to Huang, mobile sales for all these competitors total "about zero. In just three years we've reached $100M in sales."

  • Are you sure you understand the meaning in English of "paradoxical"? If you mean to say that zero is intended to contrast vividly with the other little company's 100M, that's what it does. It is probably an exaggeration, or an hyperbole.

The article says that total mobile sales for Huang's competitors is zero. His own mobile sales -- or actually, all his sales, since he's an online distributor -- total $100M.
