Chapter Eighty-Six: Guidance for Every Detail

Even with the goldfinger BUFF bonus, a person's energy is still limited, and the Internet is unlimited, Du Qiu can't be all-encompassing, so he took the opportunity of this Internet conference to spread some knowledge that he doesn't plan to get involved in, so that people in the same way can take fewer detours, and form a benign development ecosystem in China as soon as possible, benefiting others and himself.

"The Internet covers a wide range of industries, and everyone has different conditions and different ways to make money, so I will take the 10 fields just deduced as an example to analyze the future development prospects. ā€

"The technical threshold and capital requirements for optical fiber networks, servers and switches are relatively high, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get involved, so let's ignore it. Compatible machine and spare parts market in the future is developing rapidly, profits are also good, if done well, it is not a problem to earn a million a year, the threshold of this industry is relatively low, interested friends can try, if the scale is done, maybe it is the next Lenovo. ā€

"As for the software, foreign countries will develop rapidly, but I am not optimistic about the country, because the domestic copyright protection awareness is very poor, this year the CD-ROM drive and CD-ROM began to be popular on a large scale, a disc costs only a few dollars, but can accommodate dozens or even hundreds of software, which means that piracy is more convenient to spread, more importantly, with the acceleration of network speed, the future of pirated software can be downloaded directly through the Internet, further compressing the sales of genuine software. ā€

"In such an environment, if the genuine software is not encrypted, it will be crushed by piracy, if it is encrypted, it will give the market to those competitors who do not encrypt, which must be deeply experienced by Jinshan, not encrypted, the street is full of pirated WPS, encrypted, consumers switch to Microsoft's Word, in short, there are wolves and tigers, and the enemy is on the back, so it is more difficult. ā€

After a sincere conversation in the hotel last night, Qiu Baijun and Du Qiu became more familiar, and when they heard this, they smiled wryly and raised their hands to show their support.

"However, there are three kinds of software, the future prospects should be very good, one is antivirus software, piracy is stolen things, with natural insecurity, so consumers are willing to spend money to buy genuine antivirus software to protect computers, and with the development of the Internet, there will be more and more viruses, and the speed of circulation is getting faster and faster, so this field is promising. ā€

"The second is enterprise application software, such as financial accounting software, enterprise resource planning software, human resource management software, etc., with the development of the Internet, office automation, Electronic and remote will become more and more popular, the market for enterprise software is very large, this software needs to be customized and modified according to the actual situation of the enterprise, piracy is difficult to meet the demand, so the market is very large, this field has to face the competition of IBM and SAP and other international giants, but their products are mainly for large enterprises, not friendly to small and medium-sized enterprises, and not in line with China's national conditions, so there is a lot of room for development. ā€

"There is also a kind of Internet software, such as browsers, email clients, etc., the business model of this software is different from traditional software, not by selling products to make money, but by value-added services to make money, such as iView is free to distribute, through the built-in homepage to collect advertising fees, this way is still in the exploration stage, not mature enough, I will not say more, so as not to mislead everyone. ā€

Du Qiu is not a virgin after all, iView is a core trade secret of Snapdragon, so he avoided the important and lightly skimmed it, and then quickly jumped to the next topic.

"Now, let's take a look at the other 5 areas directly related to the Internet, online advertising, online ticketing, online news, online shopping, online social, these 5 areas can actually be summed up in one word, that is, online content, among which online ticketing and online social have higher technical and financial requirements, I won't say more, focusing on the other three with a relatively low threshold. ā€

"You should be able to realize that the content on the Internet is extremely poor at present, especially in China, there are only three websites to go to after going online, Shuguang BBS, Snapdragon BBS and Shuimu Tsinghua BBS just opened by Qingcheng University last month, of which Shuguang BBS is on the science and education network, Shuimu Tsinghua BBS is on the education network, and it is very slow to log in through the public network, and even if it goes up, there is not much content to see. ā€

Founded on August 8, 1995, Shuimu Tsinghua BBS is the origin of China's university campus network culture, and has been one of the most popular BBSs in China before it was converted into an intranet in 2005, with great influence.

In the current time and space, when several interns returned to Beijing to participate in the graduation defense in June, they spread the experience of building a Snapdragon BBS website and some interesting and interesting posts, which aroused the interest of many people, including the students of Qingcheng University, which stimulated them to open Shuimu Tsinghua BBS a month in advance, but the technology is still very primitive, does not support browser access, and needs to be logged in with special software, so the popularity is very low, and only a dozen people are online every day.

"The current Internet is like Pengcheng in 1979, it seems to be barren and barren, but in fact, the potential is unlimited, if you buy a piece of land in the center of Pengcheng in 1979, you will definitely make a lot of money now......" Du Qiu said this, feeling too small, so he changed his words and said:" The analogy just now is not appropriate, I put it another way, the current Internet is like the American continent just discovered by Columbus in the 16th century, vast, unlimited resources, but scarce people, if you can stake the land in advance, seize an island or a plain, open a plantation or dig a gold mine, in the future, the rich side, famous all over the world, far more beautiful than sitting on the land in Pengcheng to collect rent. ā€

Among the 500 netizens who participated in the Internet conference this time, the most came from Beijing, with more than 100 people, followed by more than 50 people from Pengcheng, and almost all of them were social people who participated in the work, and they had a strong sense of business.

"In reality, if you have land, there will be people to live in it, and on the Internet, if you have content, there will be people who will browse it, so content is land. Du Qiu reappeared to say, taking himself as an example: "There are many kinds of content, for example, I like basketball very much, and I went to Madison Garden in New York to watch Jordan play ......in April this year."

Jordan's return to the NBA was the hottest sports news of 1995, and as soon as this remark came out, many fans in the audience made envious and jealous noises.

"At that time, after watching the ball, I was very excited and eager to share it with others, but I didn't know any friends around, so I had to go back to the hotel to sleep alone, but I couldn't sleep. Du Qiu made a typing motion with one hand and said: "If there was a basketball BBS at that time, I could communicate with my colleagues through the Internet, and netizens could also know the results of the game earlier than watching sports news on TV through my posts, and they could understand the details that could not be seen on TV, which was a win-win situation." ā€

Traditional media want to produce content, need reporters, editors, office and printing equipment and other human and material resources, but the Internet does not need it, the Internet only needs to build a good website, and the content is provided by netizens, the cost is lower, the efficiency is higher, these contents may not be as rigorous as traditional media, but they are free, will attract more netizens to browse, and then produce more content, thus forming a virtuous circle, like a snowball. ā€

"When the basketball BBS forms a scale and the number of netizens reaches a certain number, Nike, Adidas and other companies will come to the door to advertise, because netizens who often browse basketball BBS have a far greater desire to buy sneakers and jerseys than those who don't care about basketball. At the same time, the owner of BBS can also organize netizens to engage in group buying, take goods from manufacturers at a discounted price, and then resell them, from which they earn intermediary fees or price differences, so you can see that online advertising, online shopping and online news can be exchanged to form a whole. ā€

"And so on, there's a lot to do, like me, in addition to basketball, I also like computers, cars, calligraphy, movies, beautiful women...... Don't laugh, everyone, beauty is a very valuable content, which can radiate cosmetics, clothes, jewelry and other businesses, which is very interesting. ā€

"The land attracts the population, the population produces food, the food attracts more people, the population produces more crops, and eventually the wilderness becomes a city, and the Internet is similar, the content attracts netizens, netizens produce content, the content continues to expand, the number of netizens continues to increase, and finally a virtual network city is formed, so I say that the current Internet is equivalent to the Americas in the Age of Discovery, barren, but with unlimited potential. ā€

If Du Qiu said these things in 2016, even primary school students may think that what he said is too simple and very wordy, but for people in 1995, these are all insights with great forward-looking awareness and reference value, because these contents are the fruits of thousands of real money burned by Internet pioneers, and they are worth a lot of money.

For example, Kingsoft has been tossing various application software before 2000, although it has earned a lot of eyeballs with the ultra-low-priced "red genuine storm", but it has never made too much of a reputation, and it was not until it was transformed to become a drug bully and excellence network that it finally survived.

For example, Zhang Shuxin of Winsea Vision once said that she knew that the Internet would make money after 2000, but she didn't know what to do before 2000, so she experimented with various businesses, but ran out of money and fell on the eve of the dawn.

"Knowledge changes fate, knowledge creates wealth, and knowledge not only refers to technology, insight is also very important, now there are 1.2 billion people in China, including only more than 10,000 netizens, everyone here has surpassed 99.99% of competitors, when others have not seen the sea, we have sailed out of the port, although the journey ahead is far away, difficult and dangerous, but when the spring flowers bloom, when they arrive on the other side, I believe everything is worth it!"

In the warm applause, Du Qiu ended his speech, raised his hand for a moment, and walked off the rostrum with brisk steps.

A few years later, this bland and long-winded speech was repeatedly mentioned and studied, and almost all industry bigwigs admitted that they benefited a lot from it, and some people even compared it to the Ten Commandments of Moses, which was considered a milestone in the history of China's Internet development.
