The next day, the forum continued.

Today's forum will be divided into three sections, corresponding to three different groups of participants, who will discuss global trade, Internet economy, and emerging industries.

Li Feng's sector is the Internet economy, which brings together more than 180 internationally renowned Internet entrepreneurs, economists, industry scholars, scientific researchers, etc., and is the youngest and most energetic of all the guests participating in the forum.

As a major topic in this forum, the Internet economy has been highly valued by the organizers.

The purpose of this forum is to discuss the future development trend of the Internet economy, and to provide effective guidance for how to further develop the Internet economy in the future, better serve the real economy, and improve the efficiency and quality of the overall economy.

The meeting was held in a five-star hotel where the guests were stationed.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the guests were able to enter the venue one after another, as a key topic in this forum, this sub-forum has received a lot of media attention, especially Internet media, almost all appeared in the forum.

Top figures in the field of Internet entrepreneurship, such as Rio Porter, were also present.

Today's sub-forum was attended by more than 180 guests. He will express his views on the future development of the Internet economy.

Since the forum is a real-time interactive mode, each guest will be allowed to express different views on their views, and they can have a heated debate at any time. Therefore, the atmosphere of the sub-forums is usually very warm and there are many highlights.

This Internet economy sub-forum is the most interesting sub-forum.

Due to the development model and future direction of the Internet economy, both the business community and the academic community have different views. In normal times, the debate is very intense, and at such a top international forum, a battle over their respective academic theories is inevitable.

At this moment, dozens of cameras have been set up on the scene, and the entire discussion of the forum will be broadcast live through these cameras.

The sub-forum was chaired by Professor Xie Changgeng.

Because Lao Xie is here. The 10,000-word article published in The Economist magazine has aroused tremendous repercussions in academic and economic circles, and has received a lot of praise, even if some of its views are controversial. However, it cannot prevent this blockbuster article from becoming the top masterpiece of the global Internet investment community this year.

"Hello everyone, I am Xie Changgeng, a professor of economics from Jiangzhou University of Technology in Huaxia. An important sub-forum of the Global Economic Leaders Forum is to discuss the future direction of the Internet economy. It is a great honor for me to be the moderator of this sub-forum. Many of you may already know. My assistant Li Feng and I are on the economic value of the third issue of this year. A 10,000-word article on investment in the Internet sector was published. It is a great honor for this article to be recognized by everyone. It became even this time. An important part of the sub-forum. Topic source. The following is a systematic explanation of our judgment on the future development trend of the Internet field by my assistant Li Feng. ”

Originally, this topic was personally spoken by Xie Changgeng, but Lao Xie handed over this arduous task to Li Feng, and Professor Russell, the organizer of the forum, also agreed with Lao Xie's suggestion.

Many people present were very surprised, after all, Li Feng's fame was not too big, and he only helped complete this article as an assistant. Now that Li Feng is the keynote speech, the weight is not enough.

The leaders in the field of Internet entrepreneurship in the United States present, except for Leo Porter, the founder of the Global Mall, the rest of the people have no impression of Li Feng.

Seeing that Li Feng is just a young man under the age of twenty, there seems to be nothing remarkable about it. Many of the young entrepreneurial leaders present looked a little disdainful.

Especially Leoper, a hot-tempered young entrepreneur, was still a little unhappy with Li Feng's categorical rejection yesterday.

After all, Global Mall is now the world's largest e-commerce platform, although the valuation is not too high, and the overall online sales performance is far inferior to that of offline physical supermarkets. But because of the huge development potential, Rioport is very confident in his e-commerce empire. This also makes him have a mentality that those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me perish, if anyone dares to oppose him, I am afraid that he will be destroyed.

Today, this little Li Feng actually jumped out to make a keynote speech at the sub-forum. It's a bit of a mishap. Leo Porter secretly thought in his heart that when it came to the discussion session for a while, he must be ridiculed properly.

In a round of applause, Li Feng picked up the microphone and began his speech.

"We're going to talk about the Internet economy. The first thing to understand is what the Internet is. Only by recognizing the true meaning of the Internet. Only then can we understand how to create a better and greater economic model. ”

"There are about 200 to 300 million Internet users in the world today, which can be said to be the total number of people in the whole of mankind. However, the Internet economy is characterized by extremely high growth, and with the continuous advancement of the world's network infrastructure, it may only take us a few years to expand the total number of Internet users to 1 billion. Imagine what it would be like to have 30 to 5 billion people living on the Internet in 10 years' time. Therefore, when we talk about the Internet, we must recognize the scale of the future development of the Internet, which is equivalent to recreating a new earth in a bit world. ”

Therefore, I believe that the future world will be dominated by the Internet, and all production and life modes will be deeply integrated with the Internet. Therefore, to talk about the future of the Internet economy is essentially to talk about the Internet transformation of the existing economy. In this sense, the Internet is not a simple technical means, but a new way of thinking to reconstruct the system. In the future, whether it is our primary, secondary or tertiary industries, we must deeply integrate with the Internet. Only by entering the information superhighway of the Internet can we find a convenient, efficient and intensive way. In this sense, there is no future without the Internet. ”

......

In 2002, neither the ordinary masses nor the top elites of the industry recognized the huge explosive potential of the Internet.

Whether in China or around the world, people's understanding of the Internet is still relatively conservative, and they do not realize that it only takes a few years for the Internet to be a super tool that can completely change the entire economic development model.

Therefore, Li Feng's keynote speech can be described as a brain-opener, making many people present begin to realize the huge growth potential of the Internet, and perhaps the current Internet is still very weak. But it's like a baby whale that will grow into the largest animal in the ocean.

The multiple cameras at the scene had already focused on Li Feng, a young man under 20 years old, who spoke amazingly and gave people a refreshing feeling on many issues.

However, some people do not agree with Li Feng's statement, thinking that he is talking big words, and even suspected of launching satellites.

After all, no technological innovation in history has brought about such tremendous progress and change. So they don't think that the Internet as a technology can bring about such a huge change.

"Mr. Li listened to what you just said, which made me even more confused. The power of the Internet is undeniable, but it cannot be overstated. After all, the offline physical world is what we are all about. The Internet is just a way to connect, it doesn't create any value in itself. Its real value lies in the connection between all aspects of the offline physical world. Leoper took the microphone and began to take the lead in attacking Li Feng, "Judging from the current situation, the function of the Internet is only a product function. In other words, the value of the Internet itself lies in providing a product called connectivity for the offline physical world. I think it's debatable how much of a product this product can do. ”

Rioport's speech won the approval of many people present, many of whom were Americans. Seeing a Chinese person giving a keynote speech here, it was a bit of a dove occupying the magpie's nest, and my heart was sour.

Therefore, seeing that Rioport took the lead, everyone also had the idea of speaking.

"Mr. Leopold, if you hold this view, then the Global Mall you founded will not grow much. Li Feng responded with a smile.
