Reborn multinational giant

Following Mr. Ma’s words, Fang Zhe nodded and said, “Yes, the number of members of Youku Tudou has exceeded 10 million. I believe that this number can be increased several times or even 10 times in the next few years!”

"hiss!"

Many audience members in the audience took a breath, more than 10 times, that would not be able to run for hundreds of millions!

With hundreds of millions of paid members, according to the current membership price of Youku Tudou, the monthly membership fee alone is as high as 1.5 billion!

Amidst the audience's surprise, Fang Zhe said to the entrepreneurs in a warning tone:

"I have always emphasized that entrepreneurs need to assess the situation. The more you follow the trend, the easier it is to succeed. Now, one of the major development trends in our country is consumption upgrades, consumption diversification, and consumption as a proportion of GDP.

In this process, a variety of emerging consumption forms, diversified import trade, overseas shopping, overseas travel, etc. will become new entrepreneurial directions. I hope everyone can seize the opportunity!"

Just after Fang Zhe finished speaking, there was a round of applause from the audience. Even an excited male audience in the back row blew a whistle regardless of the occasion.

There is no reason for the audience not to be excited. More than one-third of them are entrepreneurs. One of their reasons for coming here today is to hope that they can be from the four big brothers of HBAT, especially those who always like to be here. Fang Zhe, who broke the news at the conference, heard some entrepreneurial dry goods or the new outlet created by Fang Zhe like O2O.

The enthusiasm of the audience made Fang Zhe smile. Mr. Ma just ran into the pan-entertainment field before he broke the pan-entertainment trend. Now he has not pointed out a lot of new trends and entrepreneurial directions for everyone?

Seeing that the atmosphere on the court is finally no longer as deserted as before, the host Wu Ying took advantage of the trend to raise a new question, which is the other half of today's conference, 4G.

"Since the beginning of this year, major global operators and mobile phone manufacturers have all rushed to lay out the 4G field. In developed regions such as South Korea and the United States, operators have already opened 4G services. The chances of our three major domestic operators getting 4G licenses this year Also very big.

As we all know, the emergence of 2G has made feature phones popular, replacing old landline phones that were previously connected by telephone lines.

The emergence of 3G has promoted the arrival of the smart phone and mobile Internet industries. It has completely integrated mobile phones and the Internet, making mobile phones an important carrier of the Internet. The ubiquitous mobile Internet has completely changed people's lifestyles.

So what changes will the 4G era bring to the entire Internet industry and the lives of our general public?"

Wu Ying threw an introduction, and then he looked at Tencent President Ma, who has been silent from the beginning to the present, and said: "Mr. Ma, would you like to talk about your views on 4G first?"

Mr. Ma’s eyelids twitched. If it weren’t for Wu Ying to take the initiative to call the name, he would have nothing to say today. Firstly, Tencent’s current situation makes him unassuming to speak. Secondly, he put Fang Zhe’s O2O as the theme to the conference organizer. Being dissatisfied and reticent is a kind of silent protest, but Wu Ying, as the host, obviously does not want this embarrassing situation to happen.

Now that Wu Ying took the initiative to call his name, Mr. Ma couldn't preclude him in a few words. He had to think for a moment and replied slightly seriously:

"I think from the perspective of the launch and popularization of 4G, it may not have changed the industry and the lives of ordinary people as much as the emergence of 2G or 3G.

In our country, 2G has been popularized since 2000, 3G has been popularized since 2009, and if 4G is not unexpected, it should be popularized from next year.

The time span from 2G to 3G is nearly 10 years, and there is a generation of technology gap, while the time from 3G to 4G is only 5 years, and in turn, there is a 0.5 generation gap.

That is to say, the current 4G is called 3.5G rather than 4G. Most of its technologies are optimized and improved on the basis of 3G and the gap in network speed.

So I think that the emergence of 4G will not technically disrupt the industry and ordinary people’s lives like 2G and 3G, or even say that there will not be much change, at most, the traffic that everyone uses. The package unit has changed from the current M to G, and watching online videos is smoother."

Mr. Ma thinks that his insights are quite targeted, but the dull applause from the audience made him feel depressed. This was not even a star or a half away from the warm applause of the audience when Fang Zhe finished speaking.

In fact, the audience's applause was dull because they were somewhat scornful of Mr. Ma's views. What is 3.5G, and what is not much changed. Doesn't it mean that there are not many new outlets and entrepreneurial opportunities?

The audience as entrepreneurs is naturally unwilling to agree with and listen to Mr. Ma’s point of view. In their opinion, I’m afraid Mr. Ma’s vision is not good enough. I’ll wait to listen to what the boss Fang said, and he said something casually , Is a bunch of new outlets and entrepreneurial opportunities!

After Mr. Ma, Mr. Li of Baidu, who was also less-spoken, couldn't wait to pick up the microphone. For 4G, he and Mr. Ma of Tencent have completely different views:

"I think President Ma's understanding of 4G may be somewhat limited.

First of all, technically speaking, 4G is not just an improvement and optimization on the basis of 3G. It is quite different from 3G from the underlying technology to the application level.

In addition to the network speed of 4G, which is dozens or even hundreds of times faster than 3G, it also has many characteristics such as wide spectrum and flexible communication.

In other words, after the arrival of the 4G era, smart watches, smart glasses, smart shoes, smart homes, and other wearable smart devices and smart furniture may become popular.

As far as I know, foreign companies such as Apple, Google, and Microsoft have begun research on wearable smart devices such as smart watches and glasses.

In the future, the boundaries and carriers of the mobile Internet will extend from the current mobile phones to all kinds of smart electronic devices. I think this should be the 4G era, which should subvert the past and our current lives!"

Wow!

Warm applause sounded from the audience. In recent years, this is the first time that Baidu President Li has won such warm applause and recognition from the audience at this conference.

Tencent President Ma's face was slightly gloomy. He thought that Baidu President Li was a united front with him. Who would have thought that he would demolish his platform in person!

President Fang Zhe and President Ali Ma looked at each other, both of them laughed and said nothing. President Li didn't want to demolish your President Ma's station, he just wanted to show the limelight!

The enthusiastic applause from the audience lasted for more than ten seconds. Many viewers were ready to move about the wearable smart devices and smart homes proposed by Mr. Li.
