We-media in the era of mobile Internet
From: Liu Xingliang
(This is a speech I gave on the Boya Izumi Forum)
Hello everyone! I am Liu Xingliang, and the theme I am sharing with you today is called self-media in the era of mobile Internet, so I will divide it into two pieces to share today, the first is to share the mobile Internet era, and the second is self-media. Because I have limited time today, I will do my best. Today's weather is good, let's end early, everyone can go around the neighborhood and enjoy today's good weather.
By April of this year, when China's Internet was in April 1994, China had entered the Internet and the Internet throughout the year, and China had become the home of the Internet. This year is the 25th year of the Internet, and China is the 20th year, and each of us has entered a digital era in the past 20 years, which has brought us too many changes.
We have now entered a new era, we say that the mobile Internet era may be more empty and empty, we from a few more real places, we say a few hardware parts.
The first hardware change, I would say, is that our PC, that is, our computer will be obsolete. I made this idea at the beginning of 2011, when many people criticized me against me, and today there are many people who criticize me, but there are also people who agree with me.
What do I mean by elimination? The computer as an object will be eliminated, not like that, I say that elimination is the main profit model, or the main way of adding value, or its main value is eliminated.
For example, as if we have electric lights to eliminate our candles, it doesn't mean that there is no candle species, we will have a beautiful woman to have a dinner with candles tonight, it is a candlelight dinner.
I have a very good buddy and he has a fetish, what fetish? It's that he's collecting different wax items. Candles are the main lighting tool and this function is eliminated, so we say that candles are eliminated in this way. That's why I say that computers are eliminated, and computers are the core of our digital life, as our main way of contacting the Internet, and as the carrier of all aspects of our work and life. It has been eliminated by the mobile terminal represented by our mobile phone, which is what I mean by the elimination of the PC.
Of course, this day is far away, but the PC has reached the brink of obsolescence, and that is our home PC. Think about it, how long has it been since you turned on that computer at home? How long has it been since it was opened? Are you opening less and less frequently? Our mobile phones and our ipads can complete the main functions, and we still have public opinion, and public opinion can go to the big screen on TV, so the home PC is already on the verge of elimination. The PC we work on may last a long time, but one day it will also be obsolete.
This elimination does not mean that everyone does not need it, professional ones are still needed, we do the same as mobile phone elimination cameras, that is, the elimination is a point-and-shoot camera. Professionals need cameras, but ordinary people don't. The first change we are talking about is that our PCs are obsolete and that mobile phones are now getting smarter.
I went to visit Microsoft the other day and they have great tools. This tool is very painful, we are a foreign research institute today, and this tool is that you don't need to learn a foreign language. I also have a very good buddy, he is studying ancient Chinese literature, he went to take this doctorate for 3 consecutive years without being admitted to the foreign language and couldn't pass the test, what kind of tool is this Microsoft? It's just that you talk to this phone, for example, if I say it in Chinese, it will be released immediately in English, so we don't need to learn a foreign language, but there is still a certain problem with accuracy, but it is very fast.
Now there are many technologies in mobile phones, and we now have a series of inductions such as orientation sensing, direction induction, and infrared induction. We say that now this kind of smartphone, we are all touch screen, so they are all Apple and Samsung, what should people do if they have this copyright? We can get around it, we can do it with an air gesture.
We have better technology now, what technology? We can control it with our eyes, saying that in the future, we will judge what to control with the left eye and what to control with the right eye, which means that life will bring great changes. I'm talking about the first hardware change we're talking about, the phone knocks out the computer.
The second change, in the past, we have always been inseparable from mobile storage devices, a few days ago when I was cleaning up the house, I also found an industry of antiques, what kind of antiques? I bought 10 hard disks for 5 inches, and it cost me 180 yuan at the time, and I didn't remove the outer cover after I found my box of floppy disks that day, what does it mean? I didn't even have time to open it before it was eliminated.
In the past two years, we have used more mobile hard disks and U disks, but now mobile hard disks and U disks are also on the verge of elimination, and we don't need them anymore. I can't remember the last time I used a portable hard drive? Of course, I still use the USB flash drive a lot, I have a scene that I often use, what scene? It's just going to lecture everywhere.
Today was a light session, so I didn't prepare a PPT, and the only scene I needed a USB flash drive was a lecture. Now I don't need a USB flash drive.,I'll do my PPT and download it for everyone.。 Let's just say that now mobile hard disks and USB flash drives are also on the verge of obsolescence, what does this hardware change mean? From storage, it is the era of computing.
We can also say that we are now in the era of mobile Internet, and there is a term in our industry called the era of great wisdom, the era of large numbers, and the intelligent Internet, which is completely different from the previous era, this era has changed due to the way our users contact the Internet, so it is said that the habits of our users, our use scenarios, a series of changes have occurred. It also leads us to big platforms, big companies, and they have to change as well. Because our users have changed.
So now with a simple time, I can briefly describe what kind of era we are in. After entering this era, our walks of life are facing a new round of I call it "anxiety disorder" is the development of the Internet for so many years, three waves of anxiety disorder, the first wave we called Internet anxiety at that time, now called traditional Internet anxiety, the second generation is e-commerce anxiety, now called mobile Internet anxiety, and anxiety disorder has an obvious characteristic, the first two are mainly traditional industry people anxiety, and now to the third wave is the Internet is very anxious.
For example, some time ago, there was a person who was very anxious, this person is called Ma Yun, and he also has mobile Internet anxiety disorder. Why anxiety? If we have not entered the era of mobile Internet, it is still the era of traditional Internet, our Internet has entered a big pattern, and the era of fighting landlords has been formed in this upper layer. These three are Baidu, Alibaba, and Tencent, and these three are all very good, and their main business is very good.
For example, Tencent also has e-commerce, but there is no way to compare him with Jack Ma. Besides, Tencent also does search, but it still does a terrible job, how rotten is it? It's Sogou, they are all in their main business, and the relationship between these three is very good, but now times have changed.
In the era of mobile Internet, I just said why Jack Ma has anxiety? The reason for his anxiety is not how bad he is doing on the mobile Internet, but how well his competitors are doing it. For example, micro letter, micro letter is very anxious, and it is after micro letter 1.0 has a delivery function.
What I can tell you today is that one day in the future, the payment users of micro letter will definitely exceed the users of Alipay, which is considered a user, if one day it really exceeds which day, everyone's micro の Bo and micro letter will be liked. That is to say, Ma Yun is anxious to fight against Wei Xin, his series of actions.
Ali also had another initiative last year, what kind of initiative? He sent a notice at the time, saying that he started charging when you used Alipay to transfer money, and it used to be free transfers, but one day last year he was going to charge, why did he charge? He can make money by charging him, he can collect 200 million a year, 200 million is a huge amount of money for each of us, 200 million is a cow hair for Ali, his real meaning is not 200 million, but what is behind it. Saying that you use your mobile phone Alipay to transfer money is still free, and drive users from the computer to the mobile phone, this is what you want characters like Ma Yun to be so anxious in the mobile Internet era, can we not be anxious in all walks of life? This is the big time. The big era has passed.
Let's talk about our self-media today, our beauty also introduced just now, self-media has been very popular in the past two years, especially in many people define 2013 as the first year of China's self-media.
From last year to this year, I have accepted a lot of interviews, talking about some of my views on self-media or something, every time I am interviewed, I have to think, we have been doing self-media for more than ten years, if we say earlier, we should count from the blog era as self-media, in fact, we also have earlier, what is self-media? It's just that you are the media alone, and your views can be sent out, and I was also a self-media earlier, and we had BBS and online columns at that time, not to mention that form is not a mainstream form. At least from the blog era, it should be counted as self-media.
Why has it been so popular in the past two years? The main reason lies in the micro letter,The popularity of the micro letter public note number,A few days ago I went to ** participated in an internal exchange,Their confusion lies in the micro letter of the public note number to rob a lot of self-media things,I said this blame yourself,You don't pay attention to yourself,If the micro letter was blocked at the beginning,His public note number can't get up。 Why? Because their public note number comes from micro blogs and blogs, about 1/3 of them are transferred from micro blogs and blogs. And sometimes I deliberately put this hand on the micro letter.,I only post a preview on the blog.,If you want to see my article, you add my micro signal.,You can see this article.,**Now panic you do prevention work earlier.。
Micro letter has achieved the characteristics that the self-media did not do before, what kind of characteristics? Bypassing all the intermediate links, connecting the self-media and readers directly, and there is no noise in the middle. There are many people who say that we are in the blog era, we are in the micro blog era, and our self-media can also be directly contacted? It's not like that, let's say I've been blogging for so many years, how can I get a high number of hits per day on my blog? Mainly rely on the recommendation of **, if ** is not recommended I also have some self-flowing traffic, but mainly ** recommendation, it is recommended to each position on the traffic is different.
Although we can have some subscription tools so that people can subscribe directly, our RSS feed tools, you can subscribe directly to my blog through tools like guò, but such tools are not alive. So there are two ways to see my blog, one is to bookmark and the other is to have a variety of recommendations. There are 1/10 of such active favorites, and 9/10 still rely on various recommendations to see my blog.
But now in the era of our micro letter,The intermediate links of this qiē are filtered to,The micro letter itself does not have any recommendation meeting,And now the advantage of micro letter is that it is similar to the RSS of the year,It has this subscription,The process of active subscription。 Welcome to subscribe to my public note number, just search for my name in the public note number. What information do I have, I can receive it as soon as I send it to each of us, it integrates such a feature as RSS back then, and it becomes more direct.
This is direct,There are two basic reasons,The first basic reason is because the users of micro letters are large enough,Just now I was with our teacher Tang、Teacher Xiao we are adding micro letters to each other,Now to a place regardless of class reunion,Or elementary school class reunion,We are here 10 people may be 9 people are micro letters,Such cultural habits have been formed,So he has enough base of underlying users。 I do a self-media, I don't have enough users, I can only say that I don't do well. So this is the first underlying user, and we have the largest number of users.
The second user is that we have better interaction with micro letters, because I have done so many years of self-media, whether it is a previous blog or a micro blog or other way, I have a lot of comments or something, I just pick some fun I go to restore it, everyone, your time is limited, sometimes a large number of comments come to you can't restore fù time is limited, why is it limited? We decided to rely on the computer, we had limited time on the computer, and you still had a lot of work to do.
Now it's not the same as the era of micro-letters, and now that everyone communicates with me, I can recover most of them, unless you send me a "hehe" to come, I can't send you a "hehe, too" to you. We now have mobile phones, we can carry them with us, and your micro-message interaction is also convenient. Therefore, for these reasons, our self-media ushered in the first spring of the life of self-media, and self-media also bloomed.
Like I have been doing self-media for more than ten years, I used to be embarrassed to say that I was self-media, and when I said that some people in self-media don't understand self-media, you have to explain for a long time, troublesome. Now everyone understands what self-media is like.
That's why today's title is called self-media in the era of mobile Internet, that is, we used to have self-media, but in the era of mobile Internet, our self-media has undergone earth-shaking changes from before. This change is because we now have new technologies, new platforms, and new means that can help us do more with self-media.
In fact, sometimes we are particularly envious of foreign self-media, foreign self-media as early as a few years ago, a self-media he can rely on self-media alone to support his own life, you can live a very decent life if you do well, but China can't. There were very few before, and we can't say 100% no, but few people have done it, just doing self-media. But now in the era of our mobile Internet, there are more and more people who specialize in self-media, and there are also in our industry, and there are at least two digits among the friends I know, and there are not many double digits, right? But there are two tree friends who are both specializing in self-media.
That is to say, in the first era of mobile Internet, our self-media user base is large enough; Second, we are interacting more and more conveniently; Third, there are more and more profit models for our self-media. It can be said that our self-media has ushered in the first spring of our lives, and we welcome more and more of our friends to join our self-media team in this spring, and this is the end of my speech today, thank you!
