"Now, let's look at how to hold a computer enthusiast party with 500 strangers when you have the Internet."

"First of all, I don't need to spend money to advertise in newspapers, I just need to post in a forum related to computers, and then determine whether it is worth inviting based on the activity of the applicant in the forum. Register can also communicate with me through reply or private message, and obtain dynamic information during the party preparation process at any time."

"Comparing the two, we can find that when advertising in traditional media, there is a lack of interaction between merchants and consumers, and it is very inefficient. It takes weeks or even months to get vague market feedback information. However, advertising on the Internet, it takes one or two hours or two days to get accurate market feedback information. Consumers can also quickly obtain product information they want. In fact, advertising is not just advertising, it is the main tool for large-scale group communication in humans. In addition to business, it is also very important in the fields of politics, military, education, etc. In short, the emergence of the Internet has improved the communication efficiency between social groups by a level."

Lei Jun and several colleagues from Kingsoft sat in the back row of the conference center in a low profile. He has been reflecting on why Pangu components failed recently. After hearing this, he said to Qiubaijun: "Mr. Du is right. We suffered a big loss because of the lack of market feedback."

Qiu Baijun nodded in agreement, but said nothing, and looked at Du Qiu talking on the rostrum with a focused expression.

"Secondly, if there is a website that provides bus tickets, train tickets and air ticket reservations, I can book tickets directly on the website. You can just carry your bags to the station and airport. The hotel is similar. You don't have to wait for the place to troubleshoot room allocation and other issues. You can choose a room online in advance and check in with your bag."

"I believe many people have heard of it. I have booked a Boeing 737 to pick up friends from Beijing. The charter flight sounds cool. In fact, the cost is much cheaper than each of you to buy air tickets separately. If there is a website that collects the booking information of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of netizens and then negotiates with the airline, how much discount will you get? How much cheaper will the ticket price be? Airlines belongs to the national monopoly industry, so it is not convenient for me to say more, but I can tell you that the price I booked in the hotel you stayed in is half the price of individual customers alone."

"On the other hand, if highways, railways and airlines know the passenger flow in a certain day in the future a few days or even months in advance, and then adjust the trains or flights according to needs, how much operational costs will be saved? How much transportation efficiency will be improved? And so on, hotels, catering, shopping malls, factories and other fields are also applicable, so the emergence of the Internet has increased the efficiency of social resource allocation by a certain level."

Online ticketing is one of the earliest areas for large-scale application and profitability in the Internet. It has developed rapidly in Europe and the United States and other countries. However, the market will not exist in China until 2000. Du Qiudian stopped and did not discuss it much, but many netizens with flexible thinking showed thoughtful expressions.

"Third, if there is an Internet connection in the conference center, when I am standing on the stage and talking nonsense, the speeches of Governor Wang and Hu Yuanzi just now and the sponsor advertisements at the door of the conference center have already appeared on the news website in real-time broadcast, so that netizens around the world can see that they don't have to wait until tomorrow, and the scope is only limited to China."

"News and information are an important symbol of knowledge dissemination. Steam ships and steam trains have changed the speed of knowledge from year to month, telegraphs and telephones have changed the speed of knowledge from month to day, and the Internet has changed the speed of knowledge from day to second. Has it increased the level?"

"Fourth, if there is a shopping website, what are the local specialties in Yuncheng, what is the price, and what the reputation of the manufacturer, check it online and you can see it at a glance. You don't even 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 goods to the door, which is convenient and fast. For manufacturers, selling the products directly to customers, saving losses in the circulation link, increasing sales, profits and capital recovery speed. Therefore, the emergence of the Internet has increased the operating efficiency of social and economic activities by a higher level."

Du Qiu said this and quickly glanced at the crowd. Unfortunately, Ma Yun was not tall and had no iconic clothing, so he could not find him, so he skipped it gently and continued to the next topic.

"I won't talk about the fifth question. Everyone should have a deep understanding of the advantages of emails and online forums. When the Internet speed increases in the future and the Internet fee is reduced, we can completely throw away the phone and conduct free video chats through computer software anytime and anywhere, truly achieving the goal of being around the world. Therefore, the emergence of the Internet has increased the scope and efficiency of human social activities by a higher level."

"Through the deduction just now, we can find that the Internet has great commercial potential in five fields: advertising, ticketing, news, shopping and social networking. In order to support the development of these businesses..." Du Qiu switched the microphone to his left hand, raised his right hand, and listed it with one finger at a time: "We need faster optical fibers, more switches, more efficient servers, cheaper computers, and better software. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and it happens to be 5 fields. How many are the total?"

Many netizens laughed, turned their heads to look at Zhou Hongyi, and answered in unison: "10."

"Yes, 10 parties are something we don't do very often in our daily lives, but we can easily find 10 business opportunities related to the Internet. This is why I think there will be 10 foreign companies with market value of more than 10 billion US dollars in five years, and 10 domestic Internet companies with market value of more than 1 billion RMB." Du Qiu snapped his fingers in the air, simulated the action of counting money, and said: "10 billion US dollars or 1 billion RMB sounds exaggerated, but in fact, I will talk about a few more historical data and you will understand."

"The first industrial revolution was marked by steam engines. When steam ships and steam trains became mature, American shipping and rail tycoon Connelius Vanderbilt became the world's first billionaire. When he died in 1877, he had $105 million in assets, which was converted to $81.3 billion now, which is more than six times that of the world's richest man Bill Gates this year."

"The Second Industrial Revolution is marked by electricity. When power generation and transmission technologies matured, Siemens founded by Werner von Siemens and General Electric, founded by Thomas Edison, both achieved great commercial success. These two companies are still the top 500 companies in the world. Among them, General Electric is currently the most valuable company in the world, with more than US$100 billion, which is about one-fifth of China's GDP in 1994."

"From the data above, it can be seen that the technological revolution will cause explosive growth in productivity, and the explosive growth of productivity will bring explosive growth in social wealth. If the Internet really brings the third industrial revolution, then five years later, when the 21st century comes, companies with a market value of $10 billion may be like companies with a market value of $1 million now, and it is not surprising that they will catch a lot of them."

"Connelius Vanderbilt made $100 million in his lifetime, General Electric's market value reached $2.7 billion in 43 years, while Jim Clark invested in and founded Netscape in April last year, and went public in August this year, with a market value of $2.7 billion in one minute. It took only 16 months and 1 minute to make $566 million!"

"You may not have any feelings about history and foreigners, so I will use myself as an example." Du Qiu looked around the conference center, then clenched his fist and hit his chest, and said in a very flamboyant manner: "In March this year, I founded Snapdragon, and today it is exactly 5 months. Five months ago, I was not a single document. Five months later, I can use a luxury car worth 1.5 million yuan as a toy worth 150 yuan, buy it if you want, and change it if you want. This is a typical example of a wealth explosion."

He said this, glanced at Lei Jun, who seemed inconspicuous in the crowd, plagiarized a famous online quote that was very popular in 2016, and said self-deprecatingly: "Someone once said that even a pig can fly when standing in the wind. I have neither a strong background nor a strong education. Why can I make so much money? It's because I am a pig standing in the wind!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole room burst into laughter and applause came out. Even Governor Wang, who had been serious, smiled at it. While joking with Zhong Gaoshan beside him, he gently plucked his palms a few times.

"When the World Wide Web was invented in 1991, there were only 600,000 computers in the world that could be accessed. In 1992, it became 1.1 million units, 2 million units in 1992, 3 million units in 1993, 4.5 million units in 1994, and so far in 1995, it has been close to 6 million units. The number of netizens has also increased from less than 2 million in 1991 to more than 20 million. At this rate, by 2000, there will be 350 million netizens around the world. Everyone, computers are very expensive and the Internet fee is also very expensive, so this is not an ordinary 350 million people, but 350 million high-income consumers. Such a huge market is not a hot spot, what is the hot spot?"

The wealth is moving. Du Qiuzong deduces from ancient times to the present, and deduces it layer by layer. He needs theory and data to have data. Finally, he shows up and uses himself as an example to completely ignite the hearts of many people. There is a government official in the audience who has met him several times and can't sit still. He said loudly like a netizen: "Boss Du, we don't want to have 10 billion US dollars. Let's talk about how to do a 1 billion RMB business."

"That's right, Boss 8, what exactly should I do to make a lot of money with the Internet?"

"8, can you do Internet business if you don't know programming?"

Amid the inquiries, Du Qiuyou looked around, glanced at the young faces and enthusiastic eyes in the conference center, and deeply realized what it means to guide the country, inspire words, and dirt the ambition of Wanhuhou 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. They are all powerful figures. In the current time and space, the future of these people is all in their own thoughts...

Turning hands into clouds, turning hands into rain, just like that...
