"There have never been great individuals in this world. ”

Under the gaze one after another, Ahn Junhyuk looked back at the map, and then looked back: "When we look back at history, there are thousands of people behind every hero, without them, how can heroes achieve meritorious deeds? Without them, heroes are just standing in the cold wilderness, watching the mountains and rivers shattered, and the homeland overturned, but cumin and powerless tiny dust! The greatness of mankind is only human beings themselves!"

Here, he originally wanted to quote the idea of "no hero in time" in Chinese Taoist philosophy, but after considering it, this idea is actually an expression of the sad view that the heart of heaven is not as good as one's own heart, and if translated into English, it can easily be misinterpreted as opposing religious beliefs, so he omitted to mention it.

"Many people who support Facebook say that Facebook is a great website that uses an enlightened strategy to provide people with a relatively transparent and free environment. They say here, don't be afraid of being deceived, don't worry about being deceived, so they sometimes cheer and affectionately put my and Zuckerberg's names in front of the great! But I will say, I, Zuckerberg, and Facebook, we never were. ”

"We just provide a platform, like the heroes of human history, and only provide people with ideas, a motivation to move forward. And it is still the broad masses of people who will actually achieve this ideological goal, defeat nature, overthrow tyranny, and finally establish a world of peace and freedom. ”

"We have never forgotten that!"

As he spoke, Ahn Joon-hyuk saw the huge TV wall behind him. The map began to zoom, and those in the audience could see that beyond the well-established map, the rest of the place was still "barren", and the rudimentary satellite images were nakedly exposed. However, this "desolation" is not monotonous.

Countless tiny, little lines flicker from layer to layer, sometimes appearing, sometimes disappearing, and more often they are fixed. Then more lines. It began to spread around them to the periphery.

The map keeps zooming in, zooming to the San Francisco Bay Area, zooming to California, zooming to the whole of the Middle and all of North America, the Americas. And then. It's the whole world!

Finally appear on the screen. It is a slowly rotating sphere, and on that sphere, dots of bright light are slowly flickering in North America, Canada, the United Kingdom, and other places. I don't know if it's an illusion, but the people in the audience looked at it, and in a trance, they seemed to see that every time the light flickered, it became bigger.

This demonstration animation, combined with Ahn Junhyuk's speech, maps a certain of the heaviest force to people's hearts, and the whole scene is solemn.

Ahn Jun-hyuk put away the folding whip, took it in his hand and played with it gently, sitting in the audience, John suddenly found that he was different from before, when he gave a speech in the past, the whole person would be like emitting light and heat, making people's hearts beat faster and faster in front of him, and he couldn't help himself.

Today, however, he is like a deep pool, quiet and low, and people can't help but want to plunge into it, to find out what secret temptation is there, but because it is too deep, he is afraid of falling into the fear that he will never be able to get out again.

…… Sure enough, as Park said...... Very charming......

The whole hall was very quiet, there was not even the sound of coughing, everyone was subconsciously listening to the place where the lights gathered on the stage, Ahn Junhyuk, who paced a few steps calmly, continued to speak: "We have never forgotten this. We are not great in ourselves, but our ideals are noble enough, and we are always trying to discover the most fundamental strength of humanity – unity, sharing, coexistence!"

"This is the foundation on which Facebook was founded. I remember in 2004, when I first discovered this site on the internet and then contacted Zuckerberg, he used to say to me. Speaking of this, An Junhe paused.

The reporters in the audience pricked up their ears, and as Facebook grew larger, Zuckerberg's relationship with Ahn Jun-hyuk, as its original founder and angel sponsor, has been the focus of attention.

Many people have expressed interest in how the two IT upstarts who are currently in the limelight on the Internet met each other and then started a career together, and many Facebook supporters are even more fond of Zuckerberg's initiative to hand over the CEO position to Ahn Junhyuk, and Ahn Junhyuk is trying his best to help Zuckerberg save the Facebook story.

After a pause, Ahn Jun-hyuk smiled at Zuckerberg, who was also sitting in the audience with a confused expression: "Mark, it's the story of "Aeneid" that you often tell us, to be honest, every time you mention it, I get impatient to hear it. ”

Sitting next to Zuckerberg, Moskowitz and others, who also belong to the co-founder, immediately laughed.

Ahn Jun-hyuk is not the only one who feels this way, they are all about the same, the cameras and cameras around the press gallery immediately pointed their lenses over there and recorded this picture, Zuckerberg rolled his eyes in the laughter of everyone.

"Hehe, the impatience I just said is just a joke. Ahn Junhyuk said seriously, but there was no smile to be removed, no matter how you look at it, it is not sincere, but then he lifted his glasses and straightened his attitude: "It wasn't until I came to Facebook that I understood Mark's ideal, the Rome that he said was immortal in time and boundless in space, is the embodiment of his ideal, in short, he wants to change mankind!"

"Now, that's my dream!"

There was a moment of buzz in the audience, saying that it was not the first time that Facebook had changed humanity, but it had been Facebook supporters who touted it so before, and its official statement never mentioned this, so as not to be besieged from a moral point of view.

Zuckerberg and others were also a little stunned, this kind of thing, of course, is okay to talk about it in private, but if it is put on the table......

Ahn Junhyuk didn't care so much, he pulled out the folding whip again, and lightly tapped the TV wall, and on the huge screen, the slowly rotating earth paused, zoomed in, and returned to the map that had been perfected before.

"Our change is not to change human beings to another way of life, but to return to their true nature! Since I was a child, I have accepted Chinese Confucian culture, and I have read a lot of miscellaneous books, I once read such a sentence in the "Tao Te Ching": Absolute sainthood and abandonment of wisdom, the people benefit a hundred times, absolute benevolence and abandonment of righteousness, and the people restore filial piety. In my understanding of the past 20 years, this sentence means that if a person seeks holiness, he is limited by the holy place, and if he seeks wisdom. is misled by wisdom. If you seek benevolence and righteousness, then benevolence and righteousness are hypocritical. ”

"The core of everything lies in the holiness and wisdom, benevolence and righteousness here. It's all defined by people. So the "Tao Te Ching" has the last sentence: the road is wasted. There is benevolence and righteousness, and wisdom comes out. In ancient times, before the emergence of order, it was the nature of people to be united and honest. And when there is order. Order produces classes, classes give birth to rule, and people learn hypocrisy, evasion, deception and cunning under rule. ”

"The situation depicted in the Tao Te Ching is impossible to achieve in the real world, but there is a platform that can!" Ahn Joon-hyuk looked around, everyone was attracted by his words, this was the first time he had told his philosophical views, about the core spirit he had established for this website since he hosted Facebook: "This platform is the Internet!"

"On the Internet, everyone is equal. Reality and virtuality will eventually merge, but their integration should not be one side to replace the other, so the real class should not be produced on the Internet, so we hope to achieve absolute abandonment of wisdom on the Internet, so that the people will benefit a hundred times'!"

Ahn Jun-hyuk turned around, tapped the map with his whip, and looked at the audience and the camera with deep but bright eyes: "Facebook is Zuckerberg's Rome, and Jmap is my Tao Te Ching." ”

……

……

Facebook is Rome, Jmap, is Tao Te Ching?

Looking at Ahn Jun-hyuk, who said that sentence lightly on TV, Kazuo Hirai's heart fluctuated.

This is CBS's broadcast of Facebook's press conference, and when he learned about Facebook's movements from the media in advance, he asked his secretary to pay close attention to the timing of the press conference and notify him if there was a broadcast on the TV station.

Although Kazuo Hirai has been presiding over the work of the United States, he is actually a thorough Japanese, and he has received the same Confucian culture since he was a child, including some Taoist thoughts, and he has naturally read the Tao Te Ching, but he never thought of substituting this idea into industrial development.

Kazuo Hirai muttered that sentence as he got up and paced a few steps, his expression becoming more and more solemn.

If Ahn Joon-hyuk just said that, then it is nothing, but what he said was accompanied by a demonstration of Jmap, and the map developed by crowdsourcing is not the evidence that he "abandoned wisdom and made the people benefit a hundred times"?

What he is more concerned about is why Ahn Jun-hyuk is paying so much attention to this map product, is it just to confirm the correctness of Facebook's open strategy, or is he going to send a message to the outside world that people are united and powerful?

Maybe those reporters will be confused by Ahn Junhyuk's thoughts and the ideas he expounds, but he won't, he clearly knows that such a self-made person who expands his industry dozens of times in a year can be a villain, a hero, but he is definitely not a blindly optimistic person, he will not develop a product at will in order to prove his point of view, and similarly, the old man named Jobs at Apple will not pay for Ahn Junhyuk's ideas.

What is the significance of this map product, known as his Tao Te Ching?

Hirai Kazuo was puzzled, on TV, there were obviously reporters thinking about this issue, and when An Junhyuk's voice fell, a reporter immediately raised his hand: "Mr. An Junhyuk, the idea you proposed is indeed extremely novel, but I have a question, how should this map product born under your concept based on the Tao Te Ching be operated? Is it also a charge for the premium version like Google Maps?"

The question is tricky, Jmap is built in a crowdsourcing way, and if Ahn Joon-hyuk says that he will charge for its premium version, then it involves taking advantage of the user's spirit of sharing, and although the law does not prohibit this, it is extremely damaging to the brand image, and no one likes a company that uses itself for profit.

But if it is announced that there is no charge for operation, then what will investors think of you Ahn Junhyuk launching an unprofitable product for one of your own ideas? As Jmap gradually improves and more and more people use it, if it cannot be profitable, the cost of servers and labor alone is enough to turn it into a huge burden for Facebook.

In response to this question, Ahn Junhyuk was very calm, and in the camera, he smiled slightly: "Facebook has been looking for a way to make money, we are an Internet company, and obviously advertising revenue is the most important source." However, advertising can easily affect the user's experience, so we have been struggling with how to find an advertising model and have to think more about directions. The launch of Jmap, not only based on some of my personal ideas, but also represents that we are trying in many aspects, Facebook users are different from other Internet enterprise users, here, they are willing to share, which is also the basis of Jmap, its launch can help us think about how to use the user's sharing spirit to find business opportunities, maintain the operation of the website, and bring better services to everyone. ”

"So, Jmap will be free forever, we want experience. ”

This answer can be called high-sounding, but the reporter is obviously not satisfied, and it remains to be asked, An Junhyuk on the stage has already said: "Specific information, you can wait for half a month, Apple's new product launch conference to ask, Apple also has the ownership of Jmap, and then Jmap will be integrated into Apple's new products, showing you a unique map concept." ”

Seeing this, Kazuo Hirai suddenly realized that this press conference was a warm-up for Apple's new product launch conference half a month later.

On TV, the reporters understood the same, and then the excitement ensued, and almost all the reporters stood up and scrambled to raise their hands. However, Ahn Jun-hyuk did not talk much about the operation of Jmap, and only answered a few reporters' questions about his outlook for Jmap, and then signaled the press officer to announce the end of the press conference.

“…… As a map product, what kind of new concept is there, Facebook CEO An Junhyuk did not answer in the press conference, how it integrates with Apple's new products, has also become a topic of concern today, some analysts said, this may be related to Apple's mobile phone products, since last year, there are rumors that Apple has applied to the patent office for a similar mobile phone design patent for the appearance and design of electronic products......"

The picture of the news faded away, and the host's commentary came, and Kazuo Hirai silently turned off the TV, and the room suddenly fell into silence.

He sat in the almost stagnant air and pondered, and after some time, he pressed the call button on the phone on his desk: "Help me prepare my ticket, I'm going to Palo Alto!"

On the other side, the secretary replied respectfully: "Yes, Your Excellency!"

……

……

At the same time in Palo Alto, Ahn Jun-hyuk was on the phone with Jobs.

"Now a lot of people are saying, you're deliberately creating a topic, what, are you really going to demonstrate Jmap to those people at the new product conference?"

Jobs's voice was a little hoarse, he was not in good health, he had been under a lot of pressure recently because of the negotiations with Google, and his health deteriorated as time dragged on, the board pressed more and more tightly.

Thinking about it, Ahn Jun-hyuk replied softly, "Yes, isn't that what you originally conceived?"

"Hehe, I don't know as much as you do, I just think it's going to be fun. On the other side, Jobs smiled, and then, his voice was a little hesitant: "But in this way, will Google be alert?"

Ahn Jun-hyuk did not answer, because this is inevitable, map products are Google's core business in addition to search, and they have also noticed the development of smartphones, which cannot be eliminated in this regard.

Jobs apparently understood this, and when he asked, he sighed.

In the sigh, there is quite a bit of heroic twilight sympathy.

Ahn Joon-hyuk didn't know what to say.

Because...... Google's vigilance is also what he wants to see...... (To be continued......)
