Rebirth of the World’s Richest Man

Chapter 3707 Policy

Wang Zhidong can be regarded as an old-timer among the people in the Internet industry here, and he is willing to talk about some of the original things.

  He is a pioneer in the domestic Internet industry, and his company was also the first to be listed on NASDAQ.

At that time, let alone how many people in China knew about the Internet industry, many professional investment institutions even had no idea what Huli.com did.

 

It is undeniable that many of these latecomers are very good, such as Li Yanhong, who is now worth more than one billion US dollars and has created more than ten multi-millionaires and hundreds of millionaires.

 For example, Cheng Tianqiao dared to acquire Xinlang.

However, Wang Zhidong’s qualifications are here, and they all have to call them senior. When it comes to the history of the domestic Internet industry, many people have not been exposed to it earlier than Wang Zhidong and know as much.

“We start by grasping the needs of users to realize our dreams. I saw that five years ago, the domestic Internet user base was very small. It should be said that seven years ago,

 There was a big difference between 1998 and now. Regardless of hardware, software and infrastructure, there are now more than 45 million PCs involved in the Internet in China.

Our website, according to the survey, there are 680,000 domestic websites, and our IP addresses are also very large, at 68 million, ranking first among global IP addresses. This is a very good foundation. At the same time, from the perspective of the unlimited Internet, expansion to more than 300 million terminals.

  The second factor is the growth of the Internet population. When the company was established, the base was three million, and now it is 100 million. The entire environment is very large.

 The domestic vertical network is very long, and it has a big advantage, which is both a disadvantage and an advantage. That is, the domestic population is large enough. From the perspective of penetration,

This 100 million is just the beginning. There will be more users in the next three years. I think this is a very broad prospect. I think after the user base increases, many business models will gradually take shape... For example, the current search engine , online games, e-commerce, etc..."

Wang Zhidong’s words can be regarded as an introduction to the topic, but they also reveal the development history of the domestic Internet industry to a certain extent.

 From the beginning, only portals could survive, then to instant messaging, then search engines and e-commerce.

 In fact, with the emergence of more Internet users and the continuous expansion of the Internet user base, the current Internet industry model has emerged.

 After Wang Zhidong finished speaking, other people also spoke up, each talking about their own views on the Internet industry. For example, Cheng Tianqiao said that this is ultimately about making money.

Cheng Tianqiao said that Internet companies are like monkey dancers. What is the state of the monkey dancers and what the scene is. There are many people watching the fun, but most people ran away when paying. When the monkey dancers can change the circus, we will have hope.

 It contains basic economic principles, which means that any industry or enterprise must make money if it wants to survive and develop. To make money, it must create value for consumers.

Five years ago, we knew that no one would consider this. There were many investors who came to invest a lot of money for the development of the Internet. Many Internet companies five years ago may not show up now and no longer exist, but the rest, What we say is that the winner is king, and the remaining one is king. These few on our stage are the remaining ones.

Cheng Tianqiao’s words are relatively crude, comparing Internet companies to monkey tricks, attracting people to watch.

He also mentioned that Internet companies did not consider making money, which did not save anyone any face. But what he said was the truth. It used to be that he was making a profit at a loss, but now he can no longer do it and he has to support himself.

 Making money has become the first priority.

Of course, the reason why Cheng Tianqiao said this is because he has basically not burned any investors' money. The investments he received were all for the purpose of expanding the company. There is no doubt about the profitability of Shengda Games.

 That's why he was able to speak out openly, which basically showed off his strengths.

The next few people did not just talk about their own strengths, but actually chatted about the Internet industry casually.

　　We are not just talking about the future of the Internet, but also about the present of the Internet, and also about the past of the Internet.

In the past, present and future, the Internet industry in the past, to be honest, everyone was a little confused. They were crossing the river by feeling the stones. They were even unclear about what was the most important thing in the Internet industry. Some thought it was the outside world’s optimism. , some think it is something investors would like to see.

 Some people think it is something lofty, but gradually we have come to this point, and everyone has basically passed a certain stage.

 Especially the four major portals, in fact, from the very beginning there was a lot of popularity and flowers, to the difficult situation during the bubble, and then to now.

 Those who have experienced setbacks will always have a little more understanding of life.

This feeling can only be understood by those who have experienced ups and downs. People like Cheng Tianqiao, who had everything going smoothly at the beginning and then everything went smoothly, cannot feel that feeling now.

Only those who have experienced life and death can understand the warmth and warmth of human relationships and what is most important to an enterprise in the most difficult times.

Of course, these people present are not only talking about the Internet, but also some related policies of the Internet industry. They are also constantly mentioning it. The meaning is also obvious. There are also some leaders present who are also talking about it. I hope these leaders can provide more support for the Internet industry on some policies.

I talked about the earliest informatization group in China, and then to the current Ministry of Information Industry, and then talked about the 863 Plan and so on. One purpose is to hope that the higher authorities can support the development of the domestic Internet industry in the future.

Rather than leaving things as they were before, you can develop however you want. He also talked about the future impact of the Internet industry on the world. He is raising his own price tag and hopes for more support from above.

When everyone talked about policies, they also looked at Jiang Xiaobai. After all, Jiang Xiaobai had a higher status than them, had greater influence than them, and had access to more people than them, so they also hoped that Jiang Xiaobai could speak for them.
