Vol 6 Chapter 18: Opportunities and risks

"Yes, everyone, you heard that right, what I said is a new era," Feng Yiping affirmed that there was some suspicion in the eyes of everyone present.

I also said the word new era in Chinese and English.

He can understand everyone's suspicions, especially in the context of Chinese, the word new era is not a simple word.

After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, we have entered a new era, after the reform and opening up, we have entered a new era... Each time it represents the establishment of a new and more advanced order, and it represents what many people have adhered to. , The gradual disappearance of those accustomed order and things.

Some are similar to an irreversible, nirvana evolution.

Wu Qian gave simultaneous interpretation to Mei Yiliang and Xingyu, who are not very good in English at the desk, "Of course, the new era I am talking about mainly refers to a new era in the business sense."

"In this new era, many old models and products will be quickly abandoned by the world. I can foresee that many world-class companies, including those that still seem to be industry giants, will be abandoned by this new era. The business landscape of China will soon undergo radical changes..."

Wu Qian listened carefully to what the boss said, and as she listened, her tone couldn't help but agitated.

Although she is not very clear about what the boss said and the specific content referred to, she clearly feels the boss's understanding and confidence in this new era.

She felt the power of this new era, and she also felt the power of the boss.

To be so confident in such a new era is naturally powerful.

"...The opening of this new era is an inevitable result of our various technologies and development to a certain stage; it is an inevitable result of our extensive application of various new technologies and inventions to production and life... …,"

"...In every era, there is an iconic product. The invention and application of the steam engine opened the first industrial revolution. Electricity and the internal combustion engine brought the second industrial revolution. The invention of the computer, let us enter The information age,"

"The new era I'm talking about is the product that will be launched by Apple. Some of us already know what this product is. I can tell you clearly that it is a brand new smartphone - but Please keep confidential for a few days,"

"Apple's upcoming smartphone will represent us truly entering this new era,"

"In this new era, we can call it the mobile Internet era,"

"Actually, it is not unfamiliar, right," Feng Yiping said with a smile, "It is estimated that some of us have already used a mobile product called Monternet."

"The characteristic of the mobile Internet era is to combine mobile communications with the Internet,"

"Of course, G has been widely used in Japan, South Korea, Europe and the United States, so their understanding of the mobile Internet should be more intuitive."

"The current mobile Internet is mainly controlled by operators. For example, although we don't use it much, China Mobile has launched a "treasure box" business in the past few years."

"But with Apple's redefinition of smart phones, as the software and hardware of smart phones become more and more excellent, the upstream of the industry will be quickly mobilized, and more and more developers will enter this industry. Develop more and better products than mobile treasure chests..."

"The further development of mobile communication technology will greatly promote this process. What I said is mainly the 4G technology currently being actively developed and prepared internationally..."

Mei Yiliang and Zhou Xingyu, who are not very good in English, will find that their Chinese seems not very good. They can hear these words clearly, but they don't understand what they mean.

Wu Qian is actually the same, including Pan Shimin.

But other people, especially a few people on Facebook, are already smiling. Hong Haoyu, Rubin, and fellow engineers who were born are also thoughtful. Obviously they understand what Feng Yiping is talking about.

Feng Yiping noticed their doubts, "Or we can directly say that the so-called mobile Internet, as the name suggests, is mainly based on mobile terminals, that is, in the future, a lot of work we need to complete on computers will be transferred to each mobile. On the terminal, for example, a smart phone,"

Oh, now, no one doesn't understand what this means.

"This seemingly simple change contains many risks and opportunities, especially in the future with the popularization of 4G technology, we will find that many traditional boundaries, boundaries, and barriers will gradually disappear."

"What does this mean, to put it simply, it is very possible that some of the world-class large companies nowadays, they may have failed to understand what is going on,"

"In the future, professional players will often die in the hands of non-professional players without knowing it."

"If you don't understand this, we can take a look at the status quo of the yellow giant, Kodak,"

"In the film industry, Kodak successfully defended all opponents, but they are now struggling not because of competitors, but because of the development of various technologies outside the industry."

"First of all, not many people will use film cameras again; secondly, everyone will not wash out or type out most of the photos as before. I can browse them very conveniently on the computer, and it is also easier. Save, so why pay to type it out?"

"Similarly, we can predict that those camera companies that look good now will be dying in the future, but it will not be their peers who will defeat them, but..."

"Mobile phone?" Many people said at the same time.

Although listening to their tone, they were not sure, but they obviously understood the meaning of these words Feng Yiping said.

"Yes, although this may take time, in the future, when we travel, more often, it is enough to bring our mobile phones," Feng Yiping said.

"This time, our Facebook application will be installed on Apple's upcoming smartphone. Of course, Apple's smartphone this time can still only support G's mobile network, but the next generation will definitely Will support G network,"

"This means that from next on, more users will choose to use their mobile phones to follow their own and friends' activities on Facebook,"

"In other words, although our Facebook is currently the most popular social product, it is very likely that there will be a product that is not targeted at computers, but only targeted at smart phones and other mobile terminals that may appear in the future. However, users may like it more than our Facebook,"

"The same goes for our e-commerce company," Feng Yiping glanced at Lao Ma. "In the future, there are likely to be many girls who will choose to go to work in various intervals, such as on the way to work, when eating in a restaurant, through the phone Some e-commerce apps to shop,"

"This is what I call the crisis~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The achievements we have made so far represent only the past and the future. Whether we can continue to be the industry leader depends on our mobile terminals including smart phones. How to use the power,"

"Well done, we may still maintain the current lead, and we may also punch some masters indiscriminately,"

"For example, our e-commerce group is currently only limited to the field of online shopping. Who knows the boundaries of our business in this area in the future? I think that when the time is right in the future, we estimate that we will naturally develop other things that look like now. , A business that has nothing to do with online shopping,"

"To put it simply, in the future, what do you eat, where to eat, how to eat, will these problems be solved by our e-commerce platform, who knows? After all, Amazon is already developing their rockets and spacecraft,"

"From a more relevant aspect, will our Alipay become our current close partner in the future, a thorn in the bank's eyes?"

"I think it is possible,"

"Similarly, will our Facebook be the biggest rival of telecom operators in the future? This, I hope, Xiaozha, you remember, next, you will develop a mobile chat tool,"

"That is, I hope that in the future, our users will be able to easily send and receive instant messages through Facebook's mobile chat application without making a phone call when contacting their friends."

"Oh, yes," Zuckerberg agreed very slowly. It seems that he is digesting Feng Yiping's words and is already considering this function and how to implement it.

"This means that if we do well, but if we do not do well, it is very likely that we will become masters beaten to death by others,"

"This is not a joke," he said.
