Rebirth 2010: I taught Mr. Lei how to make a mobile phone

Chapter 702: Guardian: Chen Mo vs. Ma Yun
The next morning, the Wuzhen Internet Conference ushered in its highlight.

The leaders of various Internet companies took turns to take the stage and stirred up a storm of ideas in sub-forums with different themes.

Baidu founder Robin Li put forward forward-looking views in his speech:
“Artificial intelligence replacing repetitive mental labor has become an irreversible technological trend, and this change will come earlier than expected”

360 Group Chairman Zhou Hongyi focused on security issues:

"The era of the Internet of Everything faces four major security challenges: personal privacy security, digital asset security, personal safety, and corporate security. The current cybersecurity situation is becoming increasingly severe, and we at 360 Group are building a new generation."

ByteDance CEO Zhang Yiming made an in-depth analysis of media transformation:
"Traditional media need to reposition their core value in the Internet era. As mobile devices become the main channel for obtaining information, the circulation and revenue of traditional media such as newspapers and magazines have fallen sharply."

“The key to transformation is to distinguish between change and constancy – communication channels are changing, but the ability to produce high-quality content is always the core competitiveness. Traditional media should adapt content according to platform characteristics, transform into professional content providers, and establish a win-win cooperation model with existing platforms.”

Ma Huateng, Chairman of Tencent, shared his latest thoughts on "Internet+":
"The essence of 'Internet+' is to empower through connection, so that every individual can have development opportunities. In terms of promoting the improvement of quality and efficiency of traditional industries and public services, 'Internet+' still has huge room for development"

"In recent years, Tencent has proactively shrunk its business boundaries, focused on core areas, and opened up more opportunities to partners. We look forward to building an innovative ecosystem with partners in various fields."

Media reporters distilled the essence of the speech in real time and quickly published it with eye-catching headlines, sparking heated discussions among netizens.

This event, which brought together top industry leaders, was compared by netizens to the "Huashan Sword Contest" of the Internet industry, and the past competitions among entrepreneurs added to the topic.

As netizens watched, the event turned into a complaints show.

"Brother Li, this is pure nonsense. If artificial intelligence can replace mental labor, won't many people be laid off again and society will be in chaos?"

"Zhou Liumang, you should first clean up the 360 ​​ads before talking about network security. If you can't even solve the problem of ads, how can you make users believe that you can ensure network security?"

"Hi, TikTok has developed so much in the past two years that even a guy can go on this stage to give a speech. I felt like after watching his speech, it was like advertising for their own company."

“Who says it’s not true? Previously, these traditional media sued Toutiao, and then cooperated with each other under the mediation of the other side. Although they didn’t mention Douyin at all this time, it seems that they want to replicate this cooperation model with Douyin.”

"Eh? If I remember correctly, wasn't Internet+ proposed by Chen Mo from the other side? After listening to Xiao Ma's speech, I felt like this guy was supporting the other side. Looking at the last paragraph, it felt like Feng Qiu Huang wanted to cooperate with the other side but couldn't bring himself to do so."

"I have to say that TX has indeed changed a lot in the past year or so. Not only has the fat penguin QQ started to lose weight, but the in-game benefits have also increased, and there is also a manual customer service. Can you believe it?"

Just like that, the sky in Wuzhen was clear in the morning, but in the afternoon, it was windy and cloudy.

In the afternoon of the same day, at the “Wuzhen Forum·Digital China” sub-forum, Alibaba founder Jack Ma delivered the closing speech.

“Good afternoon, distinguished guests. I will share my insights from the two dimensions of digital economy and digital finance.

The Internet must be an ecosystem, and this ecosystem must have multiple species. The richer the species, the healthier the ecosystem, and the more people participate, the more we can truly achieve coexistence and mutual dependence.
We are entering the transformation from IT (information technology) to DT (data technology) era. The huge difference between IT and DT lies in the difference in thinking. The important difference is that successful people must have altruistic thinking. There is a concept problem that needs to be changed here.

"Regarding the issue of Internet governance, we must have a kind of governance thinking, just like the water flowing through Wuzhen, the water is everywhere and interconnected, the water is clear and transparent, and the water is public, so the water cannot be managed by anyone, but must be managed together.
No one can stop the progress of society. We should think more about how to use Internet technology to discover needs, create needs, and seek innovation and breakthroughs.
We must learn to be grateful for yesterday. Without yesterday's accumulation of IT and all the knowledge of mankind, we would not have been able to reach where we are today. We must respect tomorrow and cherish the present even more.

No matter whether it is today's Baidu, Tencent, Google or Facebook, no matter how great they are, if we extend the timeline, our time on the stage will not be too long.

No one is an expert on the future. We should be in awe of the future, but also be bold in trying. We can only make progress if we dare to make mistakes.”

On the stage, Lao Ma gave instructions and spoke passionately.

In the media work area, two reporters were talking in low voices.
"Dude, Chen Mo's speech is about to start over there. Why don't you go over there and I'll watch this side. We can exchange information after it's over."

"Deal, see you later."

A young reporter immediately picked up his equipment and hurried to the adjacent venue, just in time to catch Chen Mo, the founder of Bian'an Technology, taking the stage to begin his keynote speech on "China's Internet Culture Communication."

"Dear guests, hello! The theme of my speech today is "Using myths as a boat to tell the Chinese story to the world." "First of all, I would like to proudly introduce some exciting data:

"The Monkey King: Hero is Back" not only topped the domestic box office, but also set off a viewing craze in the global market;
"World of Glory" has long topped the game rankings in many overseas app stores;

The trailer of Black Myth: Wukong sparked a phenomenal discussion on YouTube, driving global players to learn about Journey to the West culture;

Tik Tok’s popular videos have received millions of views on international platforms;
Qidian International, as a pioneer in the overseas expansion of online literature, has businesses covering nearly 1 countries and regions, with overseas users exceeding million.

"From animation to games, from short videos to online literature, these successful cases prove that Chinese civilization has never lacked good stories. The key lies in how to use modern expressions to make the world understand our stories.

This is exactly what Bi'an Technology has been working towards - using the world's language to break down cultural barriers."

“In the Internet age, the core of cultural communication lies in ‘empathy’. We use technology as a pen and tradition as ink: The story of rebellion and redemption told in The Return of the Great Sage is a human fable that transcends culture;

The visual spectacle presented by "Black Myth" is a digital interpretation of oriental aesthetics.

These works indicate that Chinese culture is undergoing a qualitative change from "going out" to "going in".

The accumulation of 5,000 years of Chinese civilization has not only allowed the world to see China, but also to understand China! "

The audience burst into warm applause.

At the same time, in another conference hall, Jack Ma was talking, "True innovation often has no one to guide it. If you are too risk-averse, it will kill innovation.

Let me give you an example. During the Battle of Red Cliff, I think Cao Cao wanted to link all the ships together, which was the earliest idea of ​​an aircraft carrier in the world. But after it was burned down, we dared not even think about it for a thousand years.

Once you think of that fire, who will expand the ship, who will have such systematic thinking? This will kill innovation and become complacent.

At this point, some perceptive guests in the audience have already understood that Ma is endorsing Ant Group.

Such a straightforward statement is indeed surprising, and the aircraft carrier metaphor is very bold.

But what they didn't know was that the speech at another venue was even more arrogant.

".The innovation we are talking about, whether it is graphics rendering or game engine technology, is accompanied by risks. But I always believe that innovation must be based on compliance, rather than blindly taking risks. Otherwise, with today's technology, cloning laboratories would have blossomed everywhere!"

He then changed the subject: "Take Internet finance for example. I admit that it has promoted the development of the industry, but if it is deified as a 'golden age without a guide', it will only repeat the mistakes of P2P. Isn't the lesson of Ezubao profound enough?"

Chen Mo's voice echoed in the conference hall, and the whole audience was in an uproar. It takes courage to point out the pain points of the industry in such a high-level occasion.

The guests in the audience had different expressions: some looked at each other, some admired secretly, and more were shocked by Chen Mo's outspokenness. However, thinking back to his performance and speech last year, it seemed that this was him, and only he could say this.

The media's reaction was the most honest, with the flash lights lighting up the venue as bright as day.

This was exactly the effect Chen Mo wanted. Since he was going to attract firepower, why not add more fuel to the fire? He ignored the commotion in the audience and continued his speech.
At the same time, Lao Ma's speech also reached its climax. He expounded his views with ease, "Today our supervision is indeed difficult, and global supervision is difficult. Innovation mainly comes from the market, innovation comes from the grassroots, and innovation comes from young people. The challenges to supervision are getting bigger and bigger.

We need theories from practice, not practice of office theory. We need people who have the courage to take the first step and cross the river by feeling the stones. Only in this way can we find out where the problems are, and then solve the problems accordingly, so as to get better and better. "

Here, Chen Mo's speech became more and more sharp, and every word was like a knife, "The ultimate goal of financial innovation is not to subvert, but to serve the real economy more safely and efficiently.

Therefore, innovation requires several prerequisites: first, regulatory guidance! Second, industry standards! Third, technological accumulation!
At present, some so-called technological innovations (such as blockchain and Internet finance) need to undergo technical verification and market verification, rather than the gambler's logic of "making mistakes first and then correcting them."

At the same time, at a conference venue a few hundred meters away, Lao Ma was expounding on completely different innovative concepts.

The sound waves from the two venues seemed to intertwine and collide over Wuzhen.
