Reborn: Billionaire in College

Chapter 240 The first proposal of the concept of Internet+

The weather in BJ is still quite hot at the end of August.

Chen Pingjiang and his team came here to attend tomorrow's China Internet Conference.

The names of China Internet Conference, Global Mobile Internet Conference and World Internet Conference are similar, but they are actually quite different. The first World Internet Conference was held in Wuzhen in 2014, and all the participants were Internet giants from home and abroad. The Global Mobile Internet Conference is mainly for mobile phone manufacturers and operators, and Orange Mobile will definitely not be able to escape.

The China Internet Conference is of a lower standard than the World Internet Conference, but domestic Internet company bosses will all come to support it.

At 9 am the next day, the Internet Conference was held at the International Conference Center. The theme of the conference was "Crisis, Turnaround, Opportunity", aiming to find the strength and confidence of China's Internet under the financial crisis.

As soon as Chen Pingjiang stepped into the venue, he saw a familiar face with his sharp eyes - Lao Ma.

Lao Ma's figure is very easy to identify in the crowd. He is surrounded by a circle of reporters or acquaintances in the circle, like a star surrounded by a moon.
The appearance of Chen Pingjiang quickly attracted the attention of many people. After someone whispered a few words in Lao Ma's ear, Lao Ma turned around and looked in the direction of Chen Pingjiang.

Old Ma was really outgoing and immediately broke away from the crowd and walked towards Chen Pingjiang.

"Mr. Chen, I've heard a lot about you. It's rare to see you at a meeting like this."

Chen Pingjiang went up to shake hands with Lao Ma and said, "I don't deserve it. I don't deserve it. I came here mainly to learn."

"Mr. Chen, what do you think of mobile payment?"

Chen Pingjiang was stunned. He didn't expect that Lao Ma would talk about such a deep topic right away. He really spoke very directly, just as the outside world said.

“Mobile payment is the general trend.”

Lao Ma nodded in agreement. "I won't hide it from you. Since Taobao is an e-commerce company, Alipay is particularly important to them. Now Alipay can only be used internally, but it's still troublesome to transfer money between people. I've been running around the government departments recently, trying to get approval from the higher-ups."

To be honest, Lao Ma was pretty good in the first half. At least he made contributions to domestic mobile payments. He really was breaking through all obstacles. It's a pity that he went too far in the second half.

"In the area of ​​mobile payment, if there is anything I can do, Mr. Ma can just tell me and I will try my best to help. This is a big deal for the entire Internet ecosystem."

Chen Pingjiang said.

WeChat will also launch a mobile payment project. The two companies may be competitors in the future, but their interests are the same at this time, which is to promote the implementation of the mobile payment project.

In fact, by next year, the central bank will get involved and organize an inspection team of eight ministries to conduct on-site inspections of various companies, and then issue the first batch of 2011 mobile payment licenses in 27.

It was also from that time that mobile payment developed rapidly.

When Chen Pingjiang and Lao Ma were walking slowly, the people around them subconsciously stepped aside.

These two are the current big names in the domestic Internet industry. When they get together, others would feel embarrassed to get close to them.

The sudden rise of Renren has caused the BAT structure to move towards BART.

However, some people have raised doubts, as Renren has not been listed and its market value has not been recognized.

But no matter what, in the two fields of social networking and games, Renren can compete with Tencent. If Chen Pingjiang's other industry, Renrengou, is also included, Renren is even vaguely standing in the C position.

After entering the venue, Chen Pingjiang found his seat in the first row, and Jack Ma sat next to him.

What’s interesting is that Pony Ma and Robin Li were also sitting in the first row.

People like Chen Yizhou and Wang Xing sat in the third or fourth row.

In addition to the CEOs of the four BART companies, the first row also includes bigwigs from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Commerce, the Internet Association and other departments.

Chen Pingjiang is the youngest among the group.

When Xiao Ma saw Chen Pingjiang and Lao Ma getting together, his expression looked a little unnatural, while Li Yanhong came up to greet them with a smile.

We are all adults, and business competition is inevitable, but it doesn't mean we won't talk to each other after meeting.

Among the four of them, everyone competes in many areas.

For example, Chen Pingjiang and Lao Ma are competing over payment. Lao Ma and Xiao Ma once fought a battle in e-commerce. Now Chen Pingjiang and Xiao Ma are competing not only in the social field, but also in the fields of games and group buying.

You have become a big boss in the industry, how can you be like a child, you can only play with me and not with him? Chen Pingjiang and Xiao Ma Ge happened to be next to each other. After sitting down, he smiled and greeted Xiao Ma Ge: "Mr. Ma, do you have any good projects now? Take me to make a fortune?"

Xiao Ma Ge was also amused by Chen Pingjiang's behavior: "I can't tell you if there is a good project, otherwise you will beat me up again when you come in."

It would be a lie to say that I am not curious about Chen Pingjiang. This extremely young guy has surpassed Tencent in his field in just two or three years.

In terms of gaming, everyone was barely evenly matched.

In terms of social networking, the number of users and traffic of Renren and Weibo combined even exceeds that of QQ.

In the group buying market, Renrengou is undoubtedly the leader.

"What you said, I didn't blame you for always copying me." Chen Pingjiang shrugged: "I made social games, and you copied them by changing the skin. I made Weibo, and you also made Weibo. I did group buying, and you lost in the first half, and now you have invested in Dianping."

Brother Xiao Ma shook his head and smiled bitterly: "We were almost able to reach a deal on DNF, but you tripped us up and snatched it away."

"Uh." Chen Pingjiang choked and laughed dryly twice: "That was an accidental injury. I didn't know you were negotiating at the time. In order to prevent misjudgment, tell me what project you are going to do next. I will avoid it first."

Brother Xiao Ma rolled his eyes and gave Chen Pingjiang an expression: Do you think he is such a fool?

The opening ceremony of the Internet Conference is quite boring. It's all speeches from the top leaders, one after another. You have no choice but to pretend to listen carefully, otherwise it will offend people if it gets out.

I finally got through the morning, and in the afternoon there was a mobile Internet summit for Internet companies.

The discussion mainly focused on how Internet companies should seek change and future trends as the mobile Internet wave arrives.

When it was Chen Pingjiang's turn to go on stage, the audience burst into thunderous applause.

The people in the audience looked at this magical young man with emotion, wanting to see if Chen Pingjiang was really as magical as the rumors said.

“The Internet is not just a tool, but also a capability, a new DNA. When combined with various industries, it can give the latter new power and the ability to regenerate. If we miss the opportunity to use the Internet, it would be like refusing to use electricity during the Second Industrial Revolution.”

"Electricity has improved people's living standards, economic levels, and industrial capacity. It can be said that without electricity, we would not be where we are today. The same is true for the Internet. Here I would like to define the future as Internet+."

The eyes of the bigwigs in the audience lit up. It was obvious that this so-called "Internet +" was a new concept.

Chen Pingjiang's voice continued: "Internet+ can be a cross-border integration to promote innovation and industrial upgrading. Internet+ is a digital, virtualized, integrated intelligent platform built based on the new generation of communication technology. By integrating the new generation of information technology with the manufacturing, service and other industries, it promotes the continuous transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, and then derives new business, new models, and new business forms of industry development models."

"At the same time, Internet+ can also be a form of information sharing, flow and innovative use. In other words, Internet+ actually uses the characteristics of new information technology, namely "high technology, strong penetration and wide audience", to strengthen technology, organization and system innovation and promote the informatization, digital flow, sharing and creation of various production factors."

At this point, Chen Pingjiang smiled and blinked his eyes: "Is everyone confused after listening to this? In fact, it is very simple. Internet + Finance has derived Internet Finance, which can provide financial services and products through the Internet platform. This can break the limitations of traditional financial institutions and provide people with more convenient and flexible financial services."

"Internet + education has spawned online education, which can digitize and network educational resources and provide online education services through the Internet platform, breaking the limitations of the traditional education model and providing people with a more convenient and flexible way of learning."

"Internet + smart hardware combines Internet technology with traditional hardware products to improve the intelligence level of products and bring people a more convenient and intelligent lifestyle. Smart homes, smart wearable devices, smart medical care, etc. are all representative projects of smart hardware."

"..."

After Chen Pingjiang finished his speech, there was applause from the audience.

Unlike the previous polite applause, the applause for Chen Pingjiang was even more enthusiastic.

This guy really has something, and he dares to take it out.

Ma's eyes sparkled as he muttered to himself, "My Alipay can completely open up financial services. Isn't that Internet finance?"

Xiao Ma Ge was also thinking about something.

After Chen Pingjiang's advice, many people suddenly had some things that they had not been able to figure out before. For a while, everyone was eager to have further exchanges with Chen Pingjiang and learn from him.

"No wonder people say that Mr. Chen has a great vision and can succeed in everything he does. I didn't expect his theoretical level to be so high."

"After his suggestion, I have a good idea. The Internet + hospital has spawned online medical consultation. We will build a platform shared by patients and doctors, where patients can describe their conditions online and doctors can provide online consultation."

Lei Jun, Yu Minhong, and Dong Zige were also blinking constantly, repeating what Chen Pingjiang had just said.
