Volume 4 Crazy Growth 2017 Chapter 875
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, 2017 has come to an end.
The light snow has passed and the heavy snow is coming. At this juncture of the change of solar terms, anecdotes about the Internet from all sides of the world at home and abroad are endless.
In overseas markets, Bitcoin, which has been sought after as the center of attention, represents the most fashionable and cutting-edge trendsetters of the moment. Under the attention of the public, its market value continues to climb to new heights.
Even though the country has repeatedly banned overt transactions, the temptation of money is still hard to resist, and discussions about Bitcoin have always been among the hot topics on major social platforms.
Despite this, as December approaches, the general public's attention is still firmly attracted by a small town in the south of the Yangtze River.
Even though Bitcoin is a new favorite in the public opinion field, it is still difficult to compete with it. After all, compared with Bitcoin's still lackluster market value and market, the Wuzhen Summit brought together a group of industry leaders...
It is no exaggeration to say that they account for half of the world's Internet. After all, the Wuzhen Summit is the "World Internet Conference". As the conference has been held for four years, the participants are no longer limited to the domestic market...
Overseas industry giants such as Apple, Microsoft, Qualcomm, etc. were also present. This three-day Internet conference was a gathering of stars from home and abroad, with bigwigs dominating.
The main topic of this conference also revolves around the macro theme of "Developing the digital economy, promoting openness and sharing - working together to build a community with a shared future in cyberspace"...
However, such nonsensical conference topics are obviously not of concern to the general public. Worrying about the future of the industry and world trends are things that the bigwigs attending this conference should do. What does it have to do with me?
What the general public is really interested in is still the love, hate and vengeance of the bigwigs, especially the small dinner table in Wuzhen, which gathers half of the Internet.
A group of industry leaders with high net worths gathered together, chatting and laughing with each other. It is obviously difficult to get in without sufficient industry status and a starting net worth of billions.
Despite this, the bosses remain simple and unpretentious, returning to the basics and discussing business over the dinner table. This is in line with the basic national conditions and the focus of "food is the people's first necessity".
With so many elements in place , the Wuzhen dinner has always been the biggest highlight of the Wuzhen Summit, without a doubt.
After all, even if the general public wants to pay attention to the topics of the conference, the information they can learn is very limited. Even if they learn the most cutting-edge information in the industry, it is meaningless to most people.
They are all meaningless things, so it is better to pay attention to the gossip. Especially the existence of the anchor point "Zhou Dongsheng" has aroused the interest of the general public and launched heated discussions around it.
“If you don’t understand, then ask, are there any new faces at this Wuzhen Summit…”
“I don’t know who the new faces are, but I know this should be Zhou Dongsheng’s third appearance at the Wuzhen Summit, right?”
"That's right. Who would have thought that the young man who appeared next to Ding Sanshi at the beginning would rise to prominence in just a few years and already be qualified to sit on equal footing with the big guys..."
"Isn't it an exaggeration to say that we are on equal footing? How can Zhou Dongsheng be compared with all those big guys?"
"I can only say that it is not an exaggeration. After all, she is only 21 years old! She already has a net worth of 10 billion US dollars, which is a unique achievement in the world. Her future is limitless!"
"The number of big guys is already amazing enough, but there are still very few who can achieve success and fame at Zhou Dongsheng's age..."
"The most terrifying thing is that this person came from a humble background. Apart from being handsome, there is nothing special about him. However, he relied on his amazing investment skills to create a business empire that has grown from the ground..."
"Even novels wouldn't dare to write such a grassroots counterattack script. I can only describe it in four words: This kid is so terrifying!"
"Is it really that serious? No one would really think that Zhou Dongsheng started from scratch, right? A grassroots person like this with nothing and a clean background must have the support of a big boss behind him. Maybe... I can only say that those who understand will understand!"
It can be said that the controversy surrounding Zhou Dongsheng has never stopped since he highly profiled himself among the top of the Hurun Wealth List. How he achieved such a living wealth myth has always been a focus of public attention.
Although successful examples are often unique and cannot be used as reference, the power of role models is always strong, otherwise books on success would not always be so popular in the market.
Even the gurus of success who sell theories of success can use them to win success in their own lives. However, the yearning for success has always been an eternal pain point for the general public since ancient times.
That is why issues surrounding success are always hot topics that attract public attention.
The public's attention may shift, but it will never disappear. It just moves from one person to another.
As a typical example of a rising star in the past two years with the most complete elements, it is natural for Zhou Dongsheng to become the target of public criticism in the public opinion field.
Again, the general public has always been keen on the movement of creating gods. This need for worship and belief, which stems from the natural instinct of human beings, is also an irreversible nature.
After all, this behavior naturally has the effect of strengthening collective cohesion. In addition to deifying people, this image can also be placed on tribal totems, religious beliefs, or even the country.
Although it is constantly changing with the development of the times and has evolved in various ways according to different needs, there are always traces to follow when looking through the phenomenon to the essence.
Zhou Dongsheng's unique grassroots counterattack script itself is very much in line with the needs of the general public. In addition, Zhou Dongsheng never conceals this and is very active on the Internet, increasing exposure and interaction with the general public in various forms...
Under this two-way situation, Zhou Dongsheng has been pushed to the altar step by step invisibly.
This not only makes Zhou Dongsheng's influence grow, but also such a ready-made positive image, full of vigor and infinite possibilities, and has a good appeal among young people...
It is obviously difficult for the authorities to ignore the existence of such a fresh and unique program. In this case, the authorities obviously do not mind giving it a push, and fueling the flames intentionally or unintentionally behind the scenes.
After all, the so-called overall game is also made up of chess pieces one by one, and the chess player can naturally look at the overall situation and maximize the role of each chess piece.
If the chess piece is out of control, it will naturally be abandoned.
After all, chess pieces are chess pieces, and naturally one must have the awareness of being a chess piece. Many people are vying to be chess pieces, but they don't have the qualifications. As a result, they repeatedly put the cart before the horse and regard themselves as the chess players.
The outcome is predictable.
Just as an image does not necessarily have to be an individual, the role of a chess player does not necessarily have to be dominated by one person...
And when a chess piece that performs particularly well suddenly appears on the chessboard, the player naturally doesn't mind adding some responsibilities to it. While maximizing its effect, he also wants to try out what kind of role it can actually play.
This official World Internet Conference is undoubtedly a very suitable opportunity. For this reason, in addition to sending Zhou Dongsheng an invitation letter as usual, the organizer also solemnly invited Zhou Dongsheng to speak on stage...
Although strictly speaking, this is the third time that I have had the honor of participating in the World Internet Conference, you have to know that this World Internet Conference is only the fourth one.
But in the first two times, Zhou Dongsheng could only be regarded as a spectator and could only listen.
For Zhou Dongsheng, this opportunity of speaking on stage was the first time for her.
Zhou Dongsheng, who was well aware of his own abilities, was thinking of asking professionals to polish a decent speech to get by with it, just to make himself more familiar.
Just like myself at the Wuzhen dinner party that first year, this moment is exactly like that moment...
However, when Zhou Dongsheng saw one of the topics of the conference, his eyes lit up. In an instant, he was blessed and his thoughts flowed like a spring. Didn't this idea come to him all of a sudden?
This topic was tailor-made for me, especially when it complemented my previous series of plans!
This time, the advantage is in my hands!
Of course, even though you already have an idea, there is obviously no conflict between letting professionals polish it (funny).
The topic that Zhou Dongsheng wanted was: "Internet-based Targeted Poverty Alleviation"!
…
Time quickly came to the day of the World Internet Conference. A group of Internet industry leaders gathered in this small town in the south of the Yangtze River. They had to go through layers of security checks before they could enter the main venue.
After all, such a three-day Internet conference not only brings together a number of Internet tycoons with high net worth and great influence in the industry, but also naturally some official heavyweights are in attendance.
There were even remote congratulations from the top leader, which were naturally of no less value.
Of course, prohibited items are not allowed, but the media’s cameras are clearly not included in this list.
Although in the future, a warrior used a superb skill of turning the virtual into the real, turning the "long gun and short gun" into a weapon, becoming famous in one battle, becoming the first male gun in the island country and becoming famous...
But obviously, the probability of such a thing happening in this small part of China is completely negligible.
Ahem, let's get back to the topic. Under the coverage of numerous media outlets, various photos of a group of bigwigs arriving at the venue were the first to circulate on the Internet, warming up for this much-anticipated World Internet Conference.
Among them, Zhou Dongsheng, who arrived as scheduled, naturally received special attention from the media.
Ding Sanshi, who was standing at the side chatting and laughing with him, couldn't help but sigh sincerely, "You are too popular now. I'm afraid I won't have a moment of peace if I go with you. Let's meet in the venue!"
Then he decisively chose to "flee", and faced with the pursuit and blockade of some media reporters, he did not forget to add fuel to the fire of Zhou Dongsheng, "We are all old acquaintances, don't interview me, Zhou Dongsheng is over there, go find him!"
When the media reporters heard Zhou Dongsheng's name, their eyes lit up. After all, these three words are not only the well-deserved traffic password in the public opinion field, but also the current version answer!
No matter what you are picking on, don't pick on the version. The media are undoubtedly experts in this, so before Zhou Dongsheng could react, he was surrounded by three layers of enemies.
Fortunately, as an appetizer, the media did not embarrass Zhou Dongsheng too much. They just asked some routine questions. After successfully getting Zhou Dongsheng's "first blood", they dispersed contentedly.
After Zhou Dongsheng entered the main venue, Ding Sanshi came out as if nothing had happened, "Well, I am really old. I can't compete with you young people. I am aware of this, so I didn't steal your limelight..."
Ding Sanshi said cheerfully, looking a bit like an old naughty boy who didn't respect his age. It had to be said that it was his personality that made him a well-known good guy in the circle.
Being able to choose to "sit back and watch the clouds rise" and always stay at the forefront of the industry, neither choosing to be in the limelight nor falling behind, is obviously impossible to do without extraordinary skills and sophistication.
"What are you talking about? Brother Ding is definitely a model of old but still strong. He raises pigs during the day and plays DJ at night. He makes money just by standing. Young people can only admit defeat and say sincerely: Ginger is always more spicy with age!"
Zhou Dongsheng bowed in a literary manner and spoke seriously.
"Hey, what you said hits the nail on the head. If anyone else said it, I wouldn't feel the same way. It has to be you, kid." Ding Sanshi didn't care and said very casually.
Afterwards, he nonchalantly linked arms with Zhou Dongsheng and strolled in the ancient town. The eye-catching combination of the old and the young attracted a lot of people's attention.
This annual Internet event will naturally be attended by people such as Yang Luyu and Huang Zheng, who are also in the limelight recently.
In addition, shared bicycles, which have now reached their peak and are the flag bearers of the sharing economy, naturally occupy a place in Wuzhen. Vehicles can be seen everywhere, and many people choose to just scan and ride a bicycle to tour Wuzhen.
Since there are shared bicycles, there are naturally shared power banks. After Zhou Dongsheng's high-profile entry, the development of the shared power bank industry is in full swing, showing a posture of inheriting the past and ushering in the future, and expanding wildly in the market.
Jiedian, invested by Zhou Dongsheng, is now firmly in the leading position in the industry and has successfully participated in this Wuzhen Summit. Its small charging stations can also be seen everywhere.
"You were quite decisive in cashing out. Are you not optimistic about the prospects of the shared bike industry?" Ding Sanshi asked with interest.
"The grasshopper after autumn can't jump for long. The path of relying solely on financing and subsidies is almost over. The market will eventually return to rationality. In the end, only large companies can support this plate..."
"If Brother Ding is interested, you can give it a try." Zhou Dongsheng said casually and kicked the football back to Ding Sanshi's feet.
Ding Sanshi laughed, "Boy, I have to think about it. I brought a lot of pork this time..."
Zhou Dongsheng's eyes lit up when he heard this. The truth is simple, and in the end, one must return to the original intention of eating.
