When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

Chapter 447 Incident breaks out, low-profile domestic Internet companies

April 12th.

On this day, the famous physicist Hawking posted his first Weibo post, in which he greeted his Chinese friends and expressed his desire to share his life stories and work experiences with Chinese audiences through social media, which attracted huge attention.

The leader presided over a symposium on the economic situation with the main responsible persons of some regions, analyzed and studied the current economic situation, and put forward requirements for doing a good job in the next step of economic work.

The Foreign Ministers' Meeting issued a statement on ocean issues in response to reporters' questions, stating that China is strongly dissatisfied with the relevant practices of the G7 and will not accept or participate in any illegally imposed arbitration case.

In addition to these major events, a very small thing happened.

Wei Zexi died in the hospital!

Even with the two previous articles, the name Wei Zexi was not well-known.

Especially after the person in charge of Qiandu did the public relations, no reporters came to interview, and even Wei Zexi's platform account was banned for violating relevant regulations.

From the beginning to the end, Wei Zexi has always been just an ordinary person.

But when he died, things were different.

In this life, although Wang Donglai offered a helping hand after he remembered, the illness had been delayed for too long and it was already too late to save him.

I don’t know if it was a coincidence, but Wei Zexi died on this day.

When Wang Donglai received the news, he was stunned.

At this moment, an extremely strange and complicated emotion emerged in his heart.

It is difficult to explain what factors are involved in this complex emotion. After being stunned for a moment, Wang Donglai put the matter aside and prepared to continue with his own business.

The rocket engine has been designed, and Wang Donglai has also submitted the report to his superiors.

Next, just wait for the reaction from above.

However, this does not mean that Wang Donglai can relax.

There is no doubt that the core of a rocket is the rocket engine, but a rocket does not have only one engine.

The overall control system, as well as its various components, are also extremely important.

What Wang Donglai has to do is to make all these core things his own. Only when he owns complete patents can he ensure that Galaxy Technology's development of space rockets can be done as he envisioned.

Now that the rocket engine has been developed, other things will be much easier for Wang Donglai.

For a lot of work, he only needs to do the most core and important part.

Galaxy Technology offers salary packages far exceeding those in the research institute. The people recruited are core, capable employees and middle-level leaders. It is not difficult to continue improving along Wang Donglai's ideas.

however.

Just when Wang Donglai was busy with research and development.

Zhou Rui and Zhang Biyi came over and reported something to Wang Donglai.

"Qiandu sent us a lawyer's letter?"

"what is going on."

Wang Donglai looked at Zhou Rui and Zhang Bietian with some surprise, frowning slightly.

Zhang Yitian looked at Zhou Rui and took the initiative to speak: "Chairman, Qiandu sent a lawyer's letter saying that our headlines are unfair competition and steal Qiandu's search results. I hope we can stop this behavior."

Wang Donglai pressed on: "That's it?"

Now that everything has been said, Zhang Yimou is no longer restrained and continues, "Chairman, Qiandu said that it was our infringement. They have conducted a fair investigation and have secured evidence. They have already suffered economic losses and hope that we will compensate them!"

"The compensation amount is 100 million!"

Hearing Zhang Yite's words, Wang Donglai was not angry. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and asked calmly, "Why did Qiandu suddenly accuse us?"

Zhou Rui and Zhang Yitu looked at each other, and Zhou Rui said, "I think it might be Qiandu's counterattack against us."

"Last time, we took advantage of Wei Zexi's incident to expose this matter. It might have been found out by Baidu."

“So, today’s incident happened.”

Wang Donglai shook his head, looked at Zhou Rui and said, "Qiandu is a big company, they won't do this for such a reason!"

Zhang Byte suddenly said, "I think the conflict is probably caused by the competition between Qiandu and us."

"Toutiao News, Neihan and Douyin all use information flow, which is a strong competitive relationship with Qiandu itself. In addition, we also do search and lookup business, which further aggravates this contradiction."

"As our user base grows and daily active users increase, conflicts will only escalate."

"In my estimation, Qiandu shouldn't have taken the initiative so early, but combined with the above reason, I think it's understandable."

"After all, Qiandu's position in the domestic Internet is very high, and we have repeatedly rejected the entry of outside capital. Such problems will naturally be exploited by those with ulterior motives to attack us."

Wang Donglai nodded and said, "Now that you know the reason, what are you going to do?"

This time, Zhang Bytedance took the initiative to speak up, after all, he was the person in charge of the headline news business.

"Chairman, this is just a lawyer's letter from Qiandu. It has no legal effect. Only when the verdict comes out can the dust settle."

"I have already learned about Qiandu's accusations against us. There are indeed such problems with the headlines. Many of the answers were directly copied from Qiandu through machines. We must admit this."

"However, some users simply copied the answers and text from Baidu."

"But I can guarantee that this is only a very small part of it."

"Qiandu is also copying our stuff."

Listening to Zhang Yitian's words, Wang Dong took a look and said lightly: "What did I say before? Don't use this gray method."

"Whether it's users copying or machines copying, the company will be held responsible in the end."

"I believe you have no problem with this. You won't say this to the people below. Let them do it."

"But, the people below did this, and as the person in charge, you still have to bear a certain amount of responsibility. Do you admit it?"

Zhang Yitian pursed his lips and nodded.

"Well, this incident has given us a wake-up call. We must make a more accurate analysis and judgment of the content on the platform in the future."

"Answers on headlines can be wrong or fabricated unless they are sensitive content, but plagiarism must be screened out through precise analysis in the background, and such users will be demoted to a certain extent."

“The biggest problem with content platforms is that they are filled with all kinds of content, which is very strange and difficult to judge. So we need to use machines.”

"Later, I will update several of the company's software and equip them with machine preliminary review functions to screen high-risk and sensitive content, and then conduct manual review again."

“For a content platform, the most important thing is content. High-quality content is extremely valuable and must be given the greatest support. In the background, we can tilt traffic to users of high-quality content.”

"However, this can be handled by machines, reducing the level of human involvement and ensuring a high degree of fairness and justice."

"Correspondingly, for low-quality users, there are no restrictions, and everything will run according to the algorithm." "Only those videos and users who plagiarize, violate laws, regulations and ethics will be subject to certain demotions, including but not limited to traffic restrictions, blacklists, account suspension, account cancellation, and prosecution."

“Although we are in the information flow business, we must not be bound by commercial interests. We must have a longer-term vision and awareness to build a good content platform. High-quality content is the greatest treasure.”

After talking a little about the operational planning of headline news and other products, Wang Donglai suddenly asked, "Did you two know that Wei Zexi passed away today?"

The two were stunned, obviously unaware of this.

Seeing the two people's performance, Wang Donglai was not surprised and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't know."

"Qiandu sent us a lawyer's letter, so we don't have to save face for Qiandu."

"Bring out the two articles that were previously published on Baidu."

"With excessive commercial promotion and paid advertising ranking, Baidu's behavior is a bit ugly. Rather than calling it an Internet company, it is just an advertisement disguised as an Internet company. There is no technology that is truly worthy of praise."

"This time, let's use this incident to help Li Baidu wake up."

"If they can react, work hard and delve into technology, they may have a chance to maintain their position in the domestic Internet industry."

Wang Donglai's few casual words made Zhou Rui and Zhang Yite feel a little frightened.

Because the two of them had understood what Wang Donglai meant.

This is going to offend Qiandu to death!
In normal business competition, if a lawsuit is filed, either the loser has to pay money, or both parties find leverage over each other and settle the matter.

As a result, Wang Donglai was determined to completely offend Si Qiandu.

After thinking about it, Zhang Yitian suggested: "Chairman, do you want to try another method?"

Wang Donglai shook his head and said, "No need. I know what you are thinking. You think that doing this will offend Qiandu to death."

"It won't happen!"

"I think you two have seen what happened to Wei Zexi. Tell me, who has the biggest problem among them?"

After hearing Wang Donglai's question, Zhou Rui and Zhang Bietian thought for a moment and gave their own answers.

“Every adult is responsible for his or her own first responsibility.”

"If it weren't for that doctor, I think Wei Zexi might have lived longer if he had switched to a more effective treatment method!"

Faced with the two people's different answers, Wang Donglai did not judge who was right or wrong.

"You two are both right. If Wei Zexi hadn't believed in the search results on Baidu, he might not have gone to that hospital and adopted ineffective treatment methods."

"If the doctor and the hospital had a little more conscience, had higher technology, and adopted more effective treatment methods, the results would be different."

"If Baidu didn't have strict review of advertising promotion, the hospital might not appear on the search interface."

"If the supervision of that hospital was stricter, wouldn't they have come up with this kind of nearly ineffective treatment to deceive patients?"

When Zhou Rui and Zhang Yitu heard Wang Donglai's last sentence, their hair stood on end.

"Chairman, you can't say that!"

"Yeah, if this gets out, I'm afraid they'll come to check on me the next day."

Seeing the two people looking a little nervous, Wang Donglai was not surprised and said, "Of course I know."

"Qiandu was at fault in this incident, but it is not entirely to blame. Although it is a domestic Internet giant with a market value of hundreds of billions, it is still a vulnerable group and the easiest to bully."

"Commercial promotion, advertising bidding, and the widespread use of the Futian system are all inseparable."

"In the end, the problem at the end of the day is something that people dare not think about deeply."

"Qiandu's mistake is that it has become the domestic traffic portal and the industry leader in the search field, but it makes this kind of easy money in such an ugly way. It has a very low vision."

"Although this situation is the norm, I don't like it."

"I just said that I hope this incident can teach Li Baidu a lesson and make him realize that technology is the foundation. I really meant it, and I didn't mean to mock him."

Hearing Wang Donglai say this, Zhou Rui and Zhang Yibyte both breathed a sigh of relief.

The two were afraid that Wang Donglai was young and energetic and would have some bold ideas and opinions.

After all, college students of Wang Donglai's age are the group with the most active thoughts and the most keyboard warriors.

After figuring out Wang Donglai's thoughts, the two no longer had their previous worries.

"What the chairman said makes sense. Internet companies are a new way of presenting technology. They should bring changes to our lives. Thanks to the expansion of scale and not being restricted by space, profits have also increased dramatically. If you make so much money but don't develop more advanced technology to bring more beneficial changes, you are undoubtedly unqualified!"

Zhang Yibyte echoed Wang Donglai's words and expressed his own feelings.

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Zhang Bietian always felt that Wang Donglai looked at him in surprise, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

When Zhang Yitu wanted to confirm, he saw that Wang Donglai was fine, so he thought he must have guessed wrong.

In fact, Zhang Yitu was not wrong.

Wang Donglai was really surprised. In his previous life, Zhang Bytedance was the richest man in the country. He could become the richest man without any product or company listed on the market. You can imagine how much money Bytedance makes.

However, although Zhang Bytedance has made so much money, he has not made any remarkable technological developments.

Instead, they started lending and advertising their products without any shame.

Maybe it is precisely because of this shamelessness that he can make so much money.

After completely settling the matter, Zhou Rui and Zhang Bietian left Wang Donglai's office.

After the two left, Wang Donglai said to the computer: "Wa, you should have heard what I just said, I'll leave it to you!"

"Okay, boss!"

A line of big words suddenly appeared on the computer screen.

"By the way, please remember to pay attention to some of the risky content on the company's platform. If necessary, you can notify me directly or make your own decision!"

Wang Donglai suddenly thought of this and gave instructions to Wa.

"Boss, with my current computing power, it is difficult to monitor the content of all the company's products, analyze the risk level, and deal with them in the first place."

"According to estimates, the number of users of the company's Toutiao News, Neihan and Douyin products has not yet reached its ceiling. In particular, Douyin will continue to grow extremely fast, and its content will also grow explosively."

"To fulfill my boss's orders, my computing power needs to increase tenfold from the current level. However, as the number of users of the company's products increases, my computing power also needs to increase."

Seeing the answer given by Wa, Wang Donglai showed a bitter smile on his face.

"Okay, okay, I have decided to build a few super computing centers for you, but it will take some time, so you just have to make do with it for now!" (End of this chapter)
