Chapter Eighty-Five: The Pig on the Wind
Now, let's take a look at how to host a gathering of 500 strangers for computer enthusiasts with the Internet. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"First of all, I don't need to spend money to advertise in the newspaper, I just need to go to the computer-related forum to post, and then judge whether it is worth inviting according to the applicant's activity in the forum, and the registrant can also communicate with me through reply posts or private messages, etc., and get dynamic information in the process of party preparation at any time. ”
"Comparing the two, we can find that advertising in traditional media, the lack of interaction between businesses and consumers, the efficiency is very low, it takes a few weeks or even months to get vague market feedback, and advertising on the Internet, as short as one or two hours, as long as two or three days, you can get accurate market feedback information, consumers are the same, you can quickly get the product information they want, in fact, advertising is not just advertising, it is the main tool for large-scale group communication of human beings, in addition to business, in politics, military, education and other fields are also very important, in short, the emergence of the Internet, so that the efficiency of communication between social groups has been improved by a notch. ”
Lei Jun and a few colleagues from Jinshan sat in the back row of the conference center in a very low-key manner, he has been reflecting on why the Pangu component failed, and when he heard this, he said to Qiu Baijun: "What Mr. Du said is too right, we suffered a big loss because of the untimely market feedback." ”
Qiu Baijun nodded in agreement, but didn't say much, and looked at Du Qiu who was talking eloquently on the rostrum with a very focused expression.
"Secondly, if there is a website that provides bus tickets, train tickets and plane ticket reservations, I can book tickets directly on the website, you can go to the station and airport with your bag, and the hotel is similar, you don't have to wait for the place to toss the room allocation and other problems, you can choose a room online in advance, and check in with your bag. ”
"I think many people have heard that I chartered a Boeing 737 to pick up friends from Beijing, charter sounds very stylish, in fact, the cost is much cheaper than each of you to buy a ticket alone, if there is a website, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of netizens book information together, and then go to negotiate with the airline, how much discount do you guess you will get? Aviation is a state monopoly industry, and I can't say anything more, but I can tell you that the price of the hotel where you are staying is half the price of individual travelers. ”
On the other hand, if roads, railways, and airlines know the passenger flow of a certain day in advance a few days or even months in advance, and then adjust the number of trains or flights as needed, how much operating costs will be saved? How much transportation efficiency will be improved? And so on, hotels, restaurants, shopping malls, factories and other fields are also applicable, so the emergence of the Internet has raised the efficiency of social resource allocation to a higher level. ”
Online ticketing is one of the earliest large-scale applications of the Internet and profitable areas, in Europe and the United States and other countries to develop rapidly, but the domestic market will not be until 2000, Du Qiu point to stop, no more discussion, but there are many flexible thinking netizens are showing thoughtful expressions.
"Third, if the conference center had an Internet, when I was standing on the stage now, the speeches of Governor Wang and Hu Yuanzi and the sponsor advertisements at the entrance of the conference center had already appeared on the news website in the form of real-time broadcasts, so that netizens all over the world could see that there was no need to wait for tomorrow, and the scope was limited to China. ”
"News and information are an important symbol of knowledge dissemination, steamships and steam trains have made the speed of knowledge spread from years to months, telegraph and telephone have made the speed of knowledge spread from months to days, and the Internet has made the speed of knowledge transmission from days to seconds, is it a notch?"
"Fourth, if there is a shopping website, what are the local products in Yuncheng, what is the price, what is the reputation of the manufacturer, check it on the Internet, at a glance, even do not have to go out shopping in the hot summer, click the mouse in the hotel, place an order on the website, and then let the merchant deliver the goods to the door, which is convenient and fast, and for the manufacturer, sell the product directly to the customer, save the loss in the circulation link, improve the sales, Profits and the speed of capital return, so the emergence of the Internet has improved the operational efficiency of social and economic activities by a notch. ”
Speaking of this, Du Qiu quickly glanced at the crowd, but unfortunately Ma Yun was not tall and did not have iconic clothes, so he could not find him, so he skimmed it lightly and continued to the next topic.
"I won't say much about the fifth question, the superiority of e-mail and Internet forums, everyone should be deeply aware of it, and so on in the future, the Internet speed will increase, after the Internet fee is reduced, we can completely lose the phone, directly through the computer software anytime and anywhere for free video chat, truly do the end of the world, so the emergence of the Internet, the scope and efficiency of human social activities to a higher level. ”
"Through the deduction just now, we can find that the Internet has great business potential in the five fields of advertising, ticketing, news, shopping and social networking, and in order to support the development of these businesses, ......" Du Qiu changed the microphone to his left hand, raised his right hand, and listed one finger at a time: "We need faster optical fiber, more switches, more efficient servers, cheaper computers, and better software, 1,2,3,4,5, just 5 fields, how much is the total?"
Many netizens laughed, and while turning their heads to look at Zhou Hongyi, they replied in unison: "10." ”
"That's right, 10, gatherings are things that we don't often do in our daily lives, but we can easily find 10 Internet-related business opportunities, which is why I think that in 5 years, there will be 10 Internet companies with a market value of more than 10 billion US dollars abroad, and 10 Internet companies with a market value of more than 1 billion yuan in China. Du Qiu snapped his fingers in the air with his right hand, simulated the action of counting money, and said: "10 billion US dollars or 1 billion yuan sounds exaggerated, but in fact, it is not, let me talk about a few more historical data, and everyone will understand." ”
"The first industrial revolution was marked by the steam engine, and when steamships and steam locomotives matured, the American shipping and railroad tycoon Cornerius Vanderbilt became the world's first billionaire, with $105 million in assets at the time of his death in 1877, which is equivalent to $81.3 billion today, more than six times the size of Bill Gates, the world's richest man this year. ”
"The second industrial revolution was marked by electricity, when the power generation and transmission technology matured, Werner von Siemens and Thomas Edison's General Electric Company both achieved great commercial success, and these two companies are still the stars of the world's top 500 companies, of which General Electric is currently the world's largest enterprise with a market capitalization of more than 100 billion US dollars, equivalent to about one-fifth of China's GDP in 1994. ”
"From the above data, it can be seen that the scientific and technological revolution will make the explosive growth of productivity, and the explosive growth of productivity will bring about the explosive growth of social wealth, if the Internet will really bring the third industrial revolution, then five years later, when the 21st century comes, the market value of $10 billion companies may be the same as the current market value of $1 million companies, grab a handful, not surprising. ”
"Cornerius Vanderbilt made $100 million in a lifetime, General Electric reached a market value of $2.7 billion in 43 years, and Jim Clark invested in Netscape in April last year and went public in August this year, with a market value of $2.7 billion in 1 minute, and it took only 16 months and 1 minute to make $566 million!"
"You may not have a sense of history or foreigners, so I'll take myself as an example. Du Qiu looked around the conference center, then clenched his fist and knocked on his chest, and said in a very flamboyant attitude: "In March this year, I founded Snapdragon, and today it is exactly 5 months, 5 months ago I was not a penny, 5 months later, I can use a 1.5 million luxury car as a 150 yuan toy, I can buy it if I want, I can change it if I want to, this is a typical example of wealth explosion." ”
When he said this, he glanced at Lei Jun, who seemed inconspicuous sitting in the crowd, plagiarized a very popular Internet quote in 2016, and laughed at himself: "Someone once said that standing on the tuyere, even pigs can fly, I have neither a powerful background nor a strong education, why can I make so much money? Just because I am a pig standing on the tuyere!"
As soon as these words came out, the hall burst into laughter and applause, and even Governor Wang, who had always maintained a serious attitude, was also amazed, and while laughing with Zhong Gaoshan beside him, he applauded lightly a few times.
"When the World Wide Web was invented in 1991, there were only 600,000 computers in the world that could access the Internet, and in 1992 it became 1.1 million, in 1992 it became 2 million, in 1993 it was 3 million, in 1994 it was 4.5 million, and so far in 1995, it has been close to 6 million, and the number of Internet users has increased from less than 2 million in 1991 to more than 20 million at present, at this rate, by 2000, there will be 350 million Internet users in the worldWith such a huge market, if it's not an outlet, what is an outlet?"
The wealth is moving, Du Qiu talks about the past and the present, deduces layer by layer, wants theory and theory, wants data and data, and finally shows up to say, taking himself as an example, which completely detonates the desire of many people's hearts, and a government official who has met him several times in the audience couldn't sit still, and said loudly like a netizen: "Boss Du, we don't want to pay 10 billion US dollars, you can talk about how to do a business of 1 billion yuan." ”
"That's right, Boss 8, what do you have to do to make a lot of money with the Internet?"
"8 General, can I do Internet business without knowing how to program?"
In the gossip of inquiry, Du Qiuyou looked around, glanced at the young faces and enthusiastic eyes in the conference center, and deeply realized what it was to point out the country, exalt words, and dung the pride and ambition of the marquis of Wanhu back then.
In the original time and space, among the 500 netizens in the conference center, some will become super-rich, some will become pioneers of the times, and some will become business giants, all of whom are powerful figures, and in the current time and space, the future of these people is all in their own minds......
Turn your hands into clouds, cover your hands into rain, and nothing more......
