"How's the preparation?" Sha Zhengyang asked as he looked at the venue.

Ji Guoli and Guo Wei both seemed to be in good spirits, and it was obvious that this period of busyness not only did not make the two tired, but more exciting.

It is indeed such a big summit forum, and it can be said to be the first Internet forum in the country, and it has been named "the world's first Internet information summit forum", which can be said to be the first record.

Just being able to participate in this matter is enough to make people go down in history, isn't it a blessing and honor for such a glorious event to be caught up by them?

The meeting was arranged in the Handu International Conference Center, which is a landmark building of Handu completed in 97 years, covering an area of 220 acres, with a construction area of 160,000 square meters, divided into five plates, such as the exhibition area, the international conference area, the central business district, the hotel area, and the entertainment area, showing a five-sided petal pattern, and in the middle is a small lake with a water surface area of 60 acres, and the five areas are connected by a covered bridge on the water, which is very chic.

This landmark building Zhongzhi Construction is also fortunate to participate, but it is not the general contractor, but only the subcontractor, which makes Zhao Yishan very angry, thinking that the Handu Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government are still worried about the strength of Zhongzhi Construction Group, and vows that the next time the large-scale landmark building of the Handu Municipal Government, Zhongzhi Construction Group will not steam steamed buns and fight for breath must be won, and he has complained many times in front of Sha Zhengyang.

"Basically ready. Ji Guoli is full of confidence, "The International Conference Center is where the opening ceremony and keynote speech of the summit forum are located, and some of the discussions, demonstrations and exchanges are arranged at the Kanhulou Hotel and the Pearl Hotel, and the conference rooms there are also ready to stop. ”

"Well, what about the guest invitation? That's the main thing. Sha Zhengyang attaches the most importance to this matter, which is directly related to the level and success of the meeting.

"The official side is the municipal government is responsible for the invitation, the provincial government assists, the State Development and Planning Commission, the State Economic and Trade Commission, the Ministry of Information Industry, China Telecom, Unicom and other enterprise leaders, the province and the city have been invited, including a director of the Ministry of Information Industry to give a keynote speech, some well-known foreign enterprises, such as Microsoft, Intel, Oracle, AT&T, AOL and other companies We have also contacted by email and telephone, some of them said that they would arrange personnel to attend the meeting, and some did not have a clear answer. ”

Ji Guoli, of course, also knows that the guests directly determine the success or failure of the entire summit forum, from the beginning of several people began to list a large number of relevant participants, in addition to domestic government officials, including many domestic relevant well-known enterprise leaders, in addition to representatives of well-known foreign enterprises, because the current leading position in the Internet information industry is mainly in the United States on the other side of the ocean, so the direction of invitation is mainly aimed at American enterprises.

"Well, for the first time, many people are not clear about the real purpose and significance of our meeting, and it is normal to be not very active, especially foreign companies, but we ourselves can't look down on ourselves, so we must find ways to do everything we can to achieve the ultimate in the invitation of domestic enterprises and individuals. Sha Zhengyang glanced at Guo Wei, "Guo Wei, in addition to the enterprise level, like Jinshan, Sina, UFIDA, Lianbang, not to mention, but like the individual, I remember that I specifically explained to you, don't stick to their true identity now, but look at their technology and activity, these people may not be anything now, but who can say whether they are another Bill Gates in ten years?"

"Director Sha, I have done so as you asked. Guo Wei was also a little excited, "I have mobilized all my friends, well, mainly in the major forums are more active, as well as those who are technically more talented, as long as they can be contacted, we will first list them, and then conduct a round of screening, and finally determine whether they meet our invitation criteria, after confirming, we have also arranged for special people to contact them one by one through multiple ways to determine their participation, I think we have also done the most thorough and perfect degree." ”

"Oh, then let's hear it, who have you invited?" Sha Zhengyang became interested and asked with a smile.

"It's a lot, because Director Ji and you have opened their mouths, this is the first forum, and I hope to show the atmosphere of a hundred flowers blooming and a hundred schools of thought contending, so we can select more representative figures in each field, so my friends and I have also made great efforts. As soon as he said this, Guo Wei was full of red face and full of confidence, "For example, the 'Green Corps' knows, right? Many of them are super technical masters, and we have invited some of their core personnel through some channels, and it is estimated that there should be seven or eight people, who will come to the meeting, and we have sent them ten invitation letters,......

Sha Zhengyang, the "Green Corps", knew that Xiahouzi had also mentioned to him that this group is estimated to have about five or six thousand people now, and there are hundreds of core members, and Xiahouzi also knows some of them, many of whom are technical experts, but most of these people are personal hobbies, and there are not too many people who are really engaged in this industry.

"What else?" Sha Zhengyang continued.

"There are also many masters who play personal web pages and personal websites, such as 'Border City Prodigal', such as Yang Zhenting, such as You Xiaodong, the webmaster of 'Oriental Homeland',......" Guo Wei said while also observing Sha Zhengyang to see if Sha Zhengyang knew about the Internet celebrities he mentioned.

To be honest, Sha Zhengyang doesn't know much about it, but he and Xiahouzi have chatted on the phone many times, and they have heard Xiahouzi mention these celebrity names, so it seems that Guo Wei really has some way, and he is indeed an insider in the Internet, and he can find so many characters.

What was the fate of these people in his previous life, Sha Zhengyang didn't know, because he didn't know much about the Internet industry in his previous life, and the Internet industry itself is an industry that changes very quickly, so except for a few bigwigs in his previous life, he didn't have much impression of others.

However, in this world, the Internet world may think that they will contribute and influence and undergo some unexpected changes, so after these people participate in such a summit forum, after feeling their own predictions and prospects for the future development of the Internet, after Handu now has such a good entrepreneurial conditions and welcomes them to start a business here, will they also change their destiny?

He felt that even if only one-third or one-fifth or even one-tenth of these people who came to the conference this time could be touched by this and stimulate the idea of starting a business, then it may bring unimaginable impetus and promotion to the development of China's Internet information and even the related software and hardware industry, and this positive effect may be far greater than the significance and value of investing in one or two enterprises.

"Well, Guo Wei, although I don't know any of the people you mentioned, some of them have heard their names. Sha Zhengyang turned his head and asked Ji Guoli, "Experts and professors in relevant majors in major universities should have also sent invitation letters, right?"

"Yes, such as Tsinghua University, Peking University, Fudan University, China University of Science and Technology, Beihang University, China Southern Airlines, Zhejiang University, Nanjing University, Wuhan University, University of Electronic Science and Technology, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Harbin Institute of Technology, Huazhong University of Science and Technology and other colleges and universities with relevant departments, we have contacted the person in charge, invited them by email and official invitation letters, and have been communicating by phone to ensure that they can attend the meeting. "Ji Guoli is still very meticulous and meticulous in this regard.

"We have also invited Stanford, MIT, the University of California, Berkeley and other schools, and we have also sent invitations through various channels, and in accordance with your suggestions, we have also screened Chinese students and Chinese scholars who are engaged in electronic information and Internet-related industries in well-known foreign companies through official and unofficial channels, and then contacted them, and welcomed them to come back and have a look and learn about our domestic entrepreneurial environment. ”

"Then what is the attitude of these people who give back?" Sha Zhengyang is very concerned about this.

At present, the United States is still in charge of the electronic information industry, including the Internet industry, the United States is still indisputably in an absolute high position, the domestic electronic information industry and Internet-related industries want to catch up quickly, it is necessary to attract more talents to return to China through various channels to start a business, only more and more talents go out and come back, in order to form a benign interactive support for this aspect of the domestic industry and technology.

In the future, the vast number of talent groups, including Taiwan, need to create an environment that is more in line with industrial entrepreneurship and technological innovation for them, so as to truly attract more talents.

"It's hard to say, but they are still more enthusiastic about our invitation, and they are still willing to come back to have a look, and we have also sent invitations to relevant industries and universities in Taiwan, but there may be a taboo mentality, and the answers are more vague, of course, some still accept the invitation, I think they will change their views and attitudes after they come to see." ”

Ji Guoli is more cautious, Taiwan's current electronic information industry is developing rapidly, and there is still a considerable gap between China and the other side of the strait, from this point of view, Handu also hopes to attract some related industries to settle in Handu, so it is also very positive, but the reaction over there is still more cautious.

Sha Zhengyang also knows that Taiwan's industries entering the mainland are greatly affected by policies, and the policies and atmosphere on the strait are changeable, and many people are afraid of crossing the line and being suppressed, so this is understandable.
