Chapter 374: Ass Determines Head (Part I)

The ass decides the head. The mobile phone has no ads, and it saves the most data.

When Li Jiaming and Zhang Zhaoyang were still in their infancy, they yearned for freedom of speech. Because the Internet can achieve a certain level of freedom of speech, Sohu, which they have just tinkered with, will be the first person to eat crabs, and will make a lot of money from it.

Even though the entire reporter team had Li Jiaming at the helm and did not dare to step on the red line drawn by everyone, they still played a lot of side balls. Relying on views and perspectives that are inconsistent with traditional media, Sohu's social news edition became an instant hit in the early days of its creation. Even, when a few reporters stepped on the money, Li Jiaming fired mercilessly on the one hand, and gave a part of the shares to the other party on the other side to encourage the remaining reporters to continue to speak up.

Time passed, and the two of them were already at the top of the social pyramid, just one step away from the top of the tower, and their thoughts naturally changed completely. The decentralization of the Internet has given everyone the right to speak, and also allowed all people to have the right to choose whether to listen or not, but it will eventually make all the media and portals that have not appeared for many years go into decline.

If those sensationalist self-media replace the portal, what is the value of Sohu, and if Sohu is replaced, how will their media discourse be reflected?

Yes, decentralization is an unstoppable trend, but until Sohu finds a solution, or until Liberians and Sohu find a solution, they must stop this trend or slow it down.

The two discussed behind closed doors for a whole day, and successively called Zhao Shiqing and Ma Huateng to discuss together, and finally announced at the board of directors of the two major portals that they would strictly implement the real-name system on the basis of the registered membership system. Immediately, the two major websites announced that the first to implement the online real-name system were the blogs of those Internet celebrities who had attracted a lot of attention, and called those blog users who had passed the real-name argument and had many fans as big Vs.

As soon as the news came out, it was another piece of chicken feathers, which actually relieved the Li family in Hong Kong in disguise.

Opponents say it undermines freedom of speech and that the real-name system will create a sense of fear among ordinary netizens who are aware of the evils of the times. Fears of reprisals have led most critics to stop criticizing, with the result that it is difficult for the government to hear the real voice of the people and make wrong judgments.

The online real-name system will also bring danger to those who expose corruption, and make it easier for corrupt officials who are exposed to use their public power to retaliate against whistleblowers and destroy evidence. More importantly, the online real-name system has little effect on curbing lies and abuse, because the vast majority of netizens are ordinary people, and when they are abused and framed, there is no way to know the identity of the other party.

Those in favor argue that this is a responsible attitude, and it is also responsible for speaking on the Internet.

In the context of economic globalization, the domestic Internet industry is booming, but it has not played a positive role in the development of the domestic economy. The root cause is the lack of online integrity and social responsibility, which has caused huge transaction costs and social costs. The real-name system can improve this phenomenon to a great extent. Real-name netizens will be more rational to take responsibility for their words and deeds and avoid all kinds of drawbacks in the state of anonymization.

In a signed article, it was also mentioned that the most common question raised by opponents of the online real-name system is whether the real-name system affects freedom of speech? In fact, we can refer to South Korea's 'limited real-name system' and adopt a way to distinguish between 'front-end anonymity' and 'back-end real-name', which does not necessarily affect freedom of speech.

Mr. Lee, who has returned to the United States, did not update his Facebook and applauded the implementation of the real-name system in China, but praised the move at an academic seminar.

In his view, after nearly 20 years of development, the Internet is no longer only a private space, nor a paradise for a few elites, but a virtual society with billions of people.

In the real world, shopping malls, squares, stations, and airports are all public places, and since they are public places, they must abide by the law. For example, if California law prohibits smoking in public places, you must comply with a law that may impair your personal freedom.

In the same way, the Internet is a virtual society, and portals, blogs, and social networking sites are similar to public places in the real world, and personal emails and the like are similar to your personal space. In addition to protecting your personal freedom of speech, it is also necessary to respect their legitimate rights and interests and abide by public order and good customs.

Personal space is not restricted, while public space needs to be legislated. There is no unrestricted freedom regardless of political system, social ideology, or country. In short, people are social beings, and freedom is given to each other.

Of course, the American people have full freedom of speech, not to mention the hypocritical Internet, and even in real society, there are countless people holding signs to protest outside the White House. Li Jiaming's remarks did not attract much attention, but when they were transmitted back to China, they poured a spoonful of oil on the polemics between the two sides.

The words are not shocking and endless, what about Li Jiaming's reputation?

Many opponents openly questioned Lee's class attributes, accusing him of betraying his class and whitewashing the peace of those in power.

, what's this?

Seeing the remarks of those fighters in China, Li Jiaming had a feeling of crying and laughing. What class do you belong to? It seems that after I was admitted to university, I should belong to the intellectuals, and before I was admitted to university, I was also a small business owner, right?

However, they seem to be right, they are fundamentally the children of the peasants, and they have indeed betrayed the peasant class, but do the peasants need the real-name system on the Internet? The villagers who go to the city have to run for three meals and have a headache for unpaid wages, and they will care about these things?

Well, Li Jiaming also became a melon-eating crowd, watching the two of them arguing with each other, watching their saliva and keyboards flying.

It wasn't until Huo Zhenting, who was entrusted to be the peacemaker, came to the door, and Li Jiaming, who was busy watching the excitement, remembered that the matter in Hong Kong was not over yet. The digging of graves on the Internet is over, but the aftermath is still not settled, don't you have to come to yourself to seek peace? But this matter, Li Jiaming does not want to reconcile, since it has come to this point, is there still any point in reconciliation?

Of course, Li Jiaming's etiquette is still very thorough, and after welcoming the Huo family into the living room and making a cup of tea, he confessed: "Mr. Huo, this incident is indeed because of me, but I didn't expect it to develop like this." However, with all due respect, Li Xiaoer is indeed not a thing, he doesn't dare to come to his face for anything, and he does some stealing and touching dogs all day long.

Let's not go far, let's just say that he bought some officials and forced Sohu Energy to give up a large part of the market, how do you want me to reconcile with him?"

This thing is really difficult to do, use official forces to make ghosts, and if it is done, it will be done, and if it is not done, it will make the other party catch a sore foot, how can the other party stop it?

Huo Zhenting, who was sitting there with some embarrassment, had no choice but to stiffen his head and say: "Jiaming, it is better to settle the grievances, you have indeed suffered losses, but that is only economic." They have also suffered a lot of losses, not to mention reputational, let's just say that the acquisitions that you snatched and stirred up the yellow, their losses are not smaller than yours. ”

That's even more ridiculous, Li Jiaming looked at this middle-aged man who didn't know what to say, and agreed with Lao Zhang's comment - tiger father and dog son.
