Chapter 225 One party is in difficulty and all parties support (Shenzhen Dead Cat Lord 510)

  "The concept of the global village was first proposed by Canadian communication scientist Mike Luhan in his book "Understanding the Media: The Extension of Man" in 1964.

The concept of    vividly expresses the tremendous changes brought about by human communication and communication due to the highly developed media.

  In a flash, electronic media can spread information to thousands of miles away.

  With the help of electronic media, major events on the earth can be synchronized and spread in real time, and the difference in space distance and time will no longer exist.

  The entire earth has shrunk into a small place in time and space, just like a village, the sound of chickens and dogs hear each other..."

  Xia Jingxing's low, magnetic baritone sounded from the audio equipment around the hotel and entered the ears of everyone in the audience.

  Everyone is looking at their heads, wanting to hear what novel views and remarks this Silicon Valley's most popular entrepreneurial rookie can bring.

  Xia Jingxing continued, “But this concept was put forward too early, and it has been 40 years since today. The electronic media that Mr. Mike Luhan refers to are only television and radio.

  The global village he described is just a TV global village and a broadcasting global village.

   With the rise of the Internet wave in the 1990s, another Internet global village has been added to the global village.

  Compared with TV and radio, the Internet spreads faster and breaks the "one-way transmission" mechanism.

  In other words, people could only watch TV and radio before and could not give feedback, or feedback was very inefficient.

  With the emergence of the Internet, people all over the world can interact in both directions across time and space. "

  Many people in the audience nodded, and the Internet was once again hailed as the information revolution. The biggest change to society is that the transmission of information has become more efficient.

  There are also some people who are disapproving. They thought that Xia Jingxing, a rookie entrepreneur, could bring some novel and thought-provoking views, but the result was still commonplace, which made people disappointed.

  Xia Jingxing noticed the depression of the crowd in the audience and did not care.

   Immediately, his conversation turned and his voice increased by an octave: "But! It is here today, and it is coming to people all over the world with the concept of the fourth-generation global village!"

  Xia Jingxing said this in the tone of a well-known car speaker in the past.

  Sure enough, many people's heads lowered and raised again.

  "It is a social network, retracing a real society of human relations in the Internet world.

  Everyone can migrate their real friends and relationship chains to the Facebook social network.

  Today, 17 million users from three continents and six countries in North America, Europe, and Australia are using Facebook.

   Let me give you an example to let everyone understand more intuitively.

  For example, William of England uploaded a picture of going on vacation today.

   Soon, Ruth, William's cousin in Australia, commented on Facebook.

  Next, Canada’s second cousin and American cousin also commented on William’s photos.

  The family is neat and tidy, chatting and sharing their lives on Facebook happily.

  Hearing this, someone should be able to tell the difference between the social network global village and the Internet global village, or how the former has improved and improved over the latter.

  Before the birth of social networks, people could chat in chat rooms and discuss world events in BBS forums.

  But these Internet tools are anonymous, and everyone’s contact and communication are not close enough.

  The purpose of the emergence of social networks is to make people’s connections on the Internet more convenient, faster, and closer. "

  Everyone in the audience was plunged into contemplation.

  Before this, you may have used or heard of Facebook.

  But everyone's concept of Facebook is very vague. Finding friends online, sharing photos, posting blogs, etc., are common perceptions.

  If you imagine in the direction Xia Jingxing said, wouldn’t billions of people all over the world use Facebook every day, becoming a daily life?

   Is there such a great one?

  Many people are skeptical about this.

  Xia Jingxing estimated that the fire was almost over, and began to enter the advertising time.

  "Next, Facebook will enter more countries and regions.

  Of course, this also needs to overcome many difficulties, culture, language, politics and other multiple factors.

  The global village is just a vision for the future. We can only call it an "English village" at present.

   But, it’s okay.

  Many colleagues have proved that social networks are suitable for any country and any race.

  Because everyone has such a need, they are eager for social networking sites to bring more fun to their lives. "

After   Xia Jingxing's keynote speech, he bowed to the audience, and the audience applauded like thunder.

  Xia Jing pedestrian did not leave, but also accepted a few random audience questions and answers.

  A young male student in his early twenties was given the opportunity to ask questions, stood up and asked, “Darren, as you said, Facebook has the idea of ​​building a global village through social networks, is that right?”

   "Yes, as the world's largest social network company, we have never stopped thinking about changing the world."

  Xia Jingxing put on a little coercion, when this kind of high-profile time, don't be humble.

  Someone asked: "Social network service companies are being born all over the world. How does Facebook view this competition?"

  Xia Jingxing said with a smile: “In Chinese, this is called a hundred flowers bloom and promote the prosperity of the industry.

  Because of the existence of competition, it has also prompted Facebook to continuously improve itself, improve its services, and enhance its competitiveness.

  We do not dislike competition, nor are we afraid of competition! "

  Some people were concerned about Xia Jingxing’s dropping out of school and asked: “How do you think about dropping out of school to start a business? Any good suggestions or ideas for college student entrepreneurs?”

  Xia Jingxing shrugged, “First of all, I didn’t drop out of school and start a business.

  Actually, Facebook has been in operation for nearly a year and a half before I dropped out of school and started a business.

  Because there are more and more things to deal with as the company grows larger.

  Among the two choices of changing the world and completing school, I chose the former.

  For other college student entrepreneurs, my suggestion is to prove the sustainable development of the business model before making a decision.

  For example, when we get a round of financing, the company will become profitable, or it may have a very remarkable invention patent..."

  Returning to a few questions one after another, Xia Jingxing’s speech officially ended.

  After him, he gave several keynote speeches by Chinese executives and investors in Silicon Valley.

  After all this is over, a grand awards ceremony started.

  Through the joint selection of more than 20 VC partners and Huayuan directors, Facebook and four other startup companies won the 2004 Huayuan Global Innovation Award.

  Xia Jingxing and the other four award-winning entrepreneurs stood on stage, under the spotlight, accepting awards.

  Receiving the trophy made of glass crystal from Deng Feng, Xia Jingxing gave another acceptance speech.

  At the same time, the electronic screen behind him also played a short introduction to Facebook.

  Finally, the conference officially ended in Deng Feng’s speech.

  In the evening, speakers and representatives of sponsoring organizations were invited to attend the banquet of Huayuan Annual Conference.

  Xia Jingxing, as a guest speaker, was naturally invited. He sat at a table with a few entrepreneurs who had a good conversation in the morning, chatting about the Internet development trends in China and the United States, as well as some investment opportunities.

  He doesn't talk much, he mainly listens to others.

   "The domestic Internet is still the same, but the social network is very hot."

  Speaking of this, Chen Hong glanced at Xia Jingxing and asked the latter with a smile: "I heard that Facebook also invested in a domestic social networking site?"

  Xia Jingxing said lightly, “Yes, Youyoumi, not much investment, and Axel invested one million dollars together.”

  Chen Hong gave Xia Jingxing a meaningful look. Combined with the latter’s speech today, it is obvious that the other party is making a long-term plan.

  He was also shocked today, billions of users, global village, what is that concept?

  However, this goal is too ambitious, and he can only brag as Xia Jingxing, and the chance of achieving it is too small.

   "Jingxing, you haven't joined the Huayuan Science and Technology Association?" Deng Feng asked suddenly.

"Correct."

  Xia Jingxing nodded, mainly because he was not well-known before. Huayuan Science and Technology Association did not actively invite him, nor did he actively seek him out.

  Deng Feng is very good at talking, smiling and preaching: "We have neglected our work. On behalf of the association, I now officially send you an invitation to join."

   "Haha, okay, then I have to join, and I will be here again next year."

  Xia Jingxing gags, invisibly resolved some embarrassment.

  Everyone laughed.

  At the end of the banquet, Deng Feng held up his glass and looked at everyone.

  "This cup, respect everyone, and respect the association. In this land of the United States, if the Chinese want to make a difference, they must be united.

A difficult one, P Plus support! This is also the consistent aim of Huayuan! "

  Everyone nodded. Although they are all business tycoons, they have more or less felt all kinds of bad intentions on this land.

  If you want to protect yourself, you have to hold a group.

  Everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door, which is undesirable.

  Because no one knows whether or not one day is in trouble.

  The original purpose of Huayuan Technology Association was to help Chinese entrepreneurs raise funds.

  Up to now, although the surface program of the association has not changed, the top members have a tacit understanding, and they have been helping each other all the time.

In fact, Deng Feng's remarks were mainly meant for the newcomer Xia Jingxing, who heard the song and understood the elegance, glanced at everyone, and immediately nodded and said: "Big Brother Deng Feng said well, helping others is helping yourself! I think this is very good, it suits my heart, and I will strictly practice this purpose."

  Hearing Xia Jingxing's cheerful statement, several people nodded secretly.

  The scale and influence of Facebook are much worse than that of many people present, but you know, how long has Facebook developed?

  Only one and a half years.

  In their eyes, Facebook and Xia Jingxing are both promising seedlings.

   has recruited such potential members to join, which is extremely beneficial to strengthening the strength and influence of Huayuan.

  Next, the attitudes of the few people present toward Xia Jingxing all got close to each other a lot and regarded them as their own.

  They exchanged contact information with Xia Jingxing one by one, and they also said that they would have more gatherings and contact more in the future.

  Xia Jinghang is nothing to do, repeat and say good,

  A dinner party, the guests and the host were happy and separated.
