It is reported that Asia's richest man, Song Ci, and his wife, popular actress Liu Shishi, visited the Tengda headquarters to greet employees on duty during the Spring Festival holiday.

Chapter 291 Two vs. Two
On the broad and grand stage, the lights are bright. Although the two Ma and one Li are not as handsome as Song Ci, they are both the helmsmen of Internet giants and are equally powerful.
Everything is ready, and the host is very excited. It is a rare opportunity to bring four big guys together.
“As we all know, the world experienced an unprecedented financial crisis in 2008.
Although almost two years have passed, the country has introduced a series of guarantee policies during this period, and the economic situation has improved.
However, countless companies have not yet completely emerged from the shadow of the economic crisis and are still in trouble.
However, in the context of the economic downturn in the past two years, the IT industry has bucked the trend and shown an extremely strong growth momentum, leading all industries.
So the theme of this summit, four CEOs, is: IT leads the new model of China's economic development in the post-crisis era."
The host clearly stated the topic of discussion and looked expectant: "I wonder which of the four CEOs will come first?"
At this time, the official live broadcast room has exceeded 3 million people, and countless barrages are scrolling quickly.
"This topic is quite interesting. From this perspective, does the country want IT to drive the development of various industries?"
"I want to hear the opinions of the big guys. Can you show me how to make money?"
"No matter how we argue, Song Ci definitely makes the most sense. After all, Yan Zhi is right."
None of the four of them were in a hurry to speak, but the host saw that Ma Jieke was eager to try, so he smiled and invited: "How about you go first, Mr. Ma Jieke?"
Ma Jieke was in high spirits and seemed very confident: "Then I will throw out some ideas to stimulate discussion. First of all, I believe that small and medium-sized enterprises are the core force of future economic development.
Alibaba Group is providing services to millions of small and medium-sized enterprises and changing the traditional business model through Internet technology.
It has opened up new development paths for countless small and medium-sized enterprises, promoted economic development, and pioneered a new economic model in the new era.”
Jack Ma took the lead, and Ma Boli and Li Yanhong also expressed their opinions, elaborating on how IT drives economic vitality from the perspectives of search technology and social interaction modules respectively.
The speeches of the first three CEOs were quite standard. It might be because it was a large occasion and everyone spoke very cautiously, or it might be because the debate had just begun and they were all a little secretive.
"Mr. Song, please say a few words." The host cast his eyes on Song Ci, looking forward to what novel opinions the richest man could express.
Song Ci sat on a red velvet chair and said with a smile: "I have benefited a lot from the opinions of the three CEOs. Let me talk about them. First of all, I think 2010 is a year of unprecedented opportunities. Those who have entrepreneurial ideas should seize the opportunity."
Song Ci's unique opening remarks immediately aroused the interest of the IT elites in the audience and the netizens in front of the screen.
"666, the richest man seems to be going to talk about the real stuff."
“I am looking forward to what direction Songci can provide for those who have entrepreneurial ideas.”
"The three CEOs before were boring. What they said was all empty talk."
Song Ci held the microphone, confident and calm, exuding a powerful aura that made the audience listen attentively: "Everyone must be curious why I call 2010 the year of opportunity.
Because before that it was only the Internet 1.0 era, and the focus of network development was on the PC side.
However, with the popularity of smart phones, mobile applications will become a new development direction, the Internet 2.0 era has officially begun, and a new era is about to kick off.”
"Smartphone!" "The new era of the Internet."
Everyone started talking about it and the atmosphere became heated.
The host was also an expert, and knew that what Song Ci said was extremely important, so he quickly asked, "Mr. Song, can you tell me more about it?"
Song Ci nodded slightly, and instantly became the only focus of the audience: "Internet 2.0 is the era of mobile Internet.
When people hold smartphones and are free from the constraints of computers, they can enjoy the convenience brought by the Internet anytime and anywhere.
For example, Weibo, Toutiao, TT Video, etc., users can use them on their mobile phones, which is more convenient than using a computer.
Therefore, mobile Internet has quietly changed our lives. "
The host seemed to be thinking about something, and nodded in agreement: "Mr. Song, I also use your company's Toutiao app. In the past, if I wanted to read the news online, I could only sit in front of the computer and open the web page.
But now, I can read the news anytime by just opening the app on my phone, which is really much more convenient.”
“The number of PC users has reached saturation, but the number of smartphone users is still growing rapidly.
Whether it is an Internet company or other industries, how to keep up with the times in the future mobile Internet era is a question that should be pondered. "
The speaker had meaning, and the listener had even more meaning. Song Ci's words had a profound impact on the three people on the stage and the CEOs of Internet companies below the stage.
I can’t help but recall that Tenda Group had already completed the mobile deployment of all its products without realizing it.
I suddenly felt a sense of urgency and realized that there were new opportunities in the new era. If I didn't keep up with the pace, I would be overtaken by my competitors.
"Smartphone apps, 4G networks, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, etc. are all new areas and opportunities for the future. There are vast blue oceans waiting for everyone to challenge and develop."
Song Ci spoke eloquently. He spared no effort to promote mobile Internet today, just to add fuel to the fire and make the mobile Internet era come faster and more enthusiastically.
"Artificial intelligence and cloud computing!" The host was stunned. He could understand what the richest man said before, but this concept that was suddenly mentioned was too high-sounding.
“I think everyone must be curious, can you explain cloud computing in detail?”
"Of course. Cloud computing is a type of distributed computing that breaks down huge data processing programs into countless small programs through the network "cloud".
These applets are then processed and analyzed by a system consisting of multiple servers to obtain results and return them to the user.”
Song Ci was in high spirits, his face full of enthusiasm for cutting-edge technology, but seeing the host looking confused, he chose to make it short:
“Simply put, it is distributed computing, solving task release and merging settlement results, so cloud computing is also called network computing.
Through this technology, tens of thousands of data can be processed in seconds, thus achieving powerful network services. "
The host was confused and laughed awkwardly: "Mr. Song, you may be too professional, I don't quite understand.
However, Mr. Li and Mr. Ma both understand technology, so I would like to ask you two, what do you think of the cloud computing that Mr. Song mentioned? "
When Song Ci mentioned the concept of cloud computing, not only did the host completely fail to understand it, but the barrage of comments also surged wildly.
"Can someone explain what cloud computing is?"
"What Song Ci said is that each word is understandable individually, but not when put together."
"Look at Song Ci's enthusiastic programmer expression. Does he also understand technology? I remember he studied finance in college!"
When the host asked the question, Li Yanhong couldn't help but sneered: "The concept of cloud computing has a long history, it is not an idea that has only emerged in recent years.
To put it bluntly, it is old wine in a new bottle, nothing new. Mr. Song wants to earn more money from customers through cloud computing, but it is probably a thankless task. "
The host's eyes lit up. Li Yanhong's sharp words and clear-cut opposition to Song poetry will inevitably bring more topics to this forum.
Then he looked at the Penguin CEO, with a hint of anticipation in his heart, curious about what his insights would be.
Maberly leaned back in his chair, thinking clearly, and said calmly, "I am not optimistic about cloud computing either... I think it may take hundreds or thousands of years for this to be realized. It is too early to talk about it now."
The atmosphere in the conference hall suddenly became subtle, and Maberly's words and deeds revealed his deep doubts about the development prospects of cloud computing at the current stage.
"Interesting, 2 to 1, I wonder which side Majek will stand on?"
"Song Ci's words are too profound. Ma Jieke doesn't understand technology, and probably can't understand cloud computing."
Ma Jieke obviously knew it was his turn to speak, so he picked up the microphone and said loudly: "Before Mr. Song spoke, I also thought that Mr. Song didn't understand technology like me.
But after the professional sharing just now, I dare to assert that Mr. Song definitely has unique skills and extremely advanced IT technology. It turns out that I am the only one who does not understand technology. "
Listening to Ma Jieke's self-deprecating words, the host keenly caught the topic's heat and said, "Mr. Song, as far as I know, you studied finance in college. Do you really understand IT technology as Mr. Ma guessed?"
Under the curious gazes of everyone in the audience, Song Ci nodded slowly, and then said something shocking, admitting openly: "I am also the chief technician of Tengda Group."
There was an uproar at the scene. Even the host didn't know what to say for a moment. He was stunned for a long time before muttering in disbelief:
"You not only have extraordinary business talent, but you can also write screenplays and novels, have extremely high literary attainments, and now you also understand IT technology. Your talent is truly amazing."
The barrage was also going wild. "I told you, Song Ci definitely understands technology."
"Awesome, inhuman, but I'm also curious where Song Ci learned IT skills."
"I'm going to reveal a secret to you. Song Ci has a special ability: she has a photographic memory."
"Photographic memory, that's bullshit! The person above, you said it as if Song Ci told you personally."
"Song Ci told me this himself, and I've also tested him and found that he can recite any book by heart after reading it only once."
"Who are you? You act like you're very familiar with Song Dynasty poetry." The netizen who posted the barrage earlier continued to respond. When he saw the user ID, he was immediately surprised to find that it was the famous star Liu Shishi.
However, in the moment when this netizen was stunned, his previous remarks were drowned out by the vast barrage of comments.
After this short episode, Ma Jieke continued with the previous topic: "I think we should seriously consider any new thing that comes out...
I think Mr. Song would never do something without a purpose. As far as I know, Tengda Group has invested more than 1 billion to build a global cloud computing center in Donghai.
I personally think that Mr. Song is willing to invest real money, which means he must have a certain understanding of this technology. Alibaba will also invest a certain amount of money in the field of cloud computing in the future.”
"2 to 2! Song Ci and Ma Jieke vs. Li Yanhong and Ma Boli."
"Where do you stand?"
"For such a profound topic, no one can tell right from wrong at the moment. We can only wait for time to verify it. Maybe it will be meaningful to look back on this debate in a few years."
The host thought that Ma Jieke would oppose Song Ci like the previous two people, but unexpectedly, the other party attached great importance to cloud computing technology. This reversal was really exciting and unexpected.
"The four CEOs all have their own opinions. Is there anyone in the audience who would like to discuss this?"
In the back seat, a young man raised his hand high and took the microphone after getting permission from the host.
"Hello, Mr. Song. I am Zhang Yiming, CEO of Jiujiufang Company. I would like to ask you a question. I wonder if it is convenient for you to answer it."
Song Ci looked up and was slightly surprised to see the questioner with a shy smile. It was this person! "Hello, Mr. Zhang, please go ahead."
“Can you tell us about big data technology?”
As soon as these words were spoken, not only the audience, but even the three CEOs on the stage fixed their eyes on Song Ci, wanting to know whether he would introduce big data technology.
Now everyone in the entire Internet industry knows that Tengda Group’s big data technology is unrivaled in the world. It is precisely relying on this unique skill that it has managed to break through the siege of a large number of Internet companies and become the largest Internet company in China.
Song Ci thought about the words for a while and decided to give a brief introduction to big data. Tenda is currently the world leader in big data technology, and other companies cannot catch up in a short period of time, so it doesn't hurt to talk about it briefly.
"The strategic significance of big data technology...is not to master huge amounts of data information, but to professionally process these meaningful data, improve data processing capabilities, and empower Internet products."
Song Ci did not hide his true feelings, and explained the relevant content of big data in a clear and orderly manner. Every word seemed to carry magic, which immersed the audience and netizens in it.
Zhang Yiming's eyes sparkled. "That's why your company's Toutiao can push different content based on user preferences, greatly improving information utilization efficiency."
After that, Zhang Yiming bowed slightly to Song Ci: "Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Song! After listening to your introduction of mobile Internet, cloud computing, and big data today, I found that you are really an entrepreneur with a vision and foresight. I really look forward to working with someone like you."
Song Ci listened to Zhang Yiming's admiration for him and smiled: "Tengda welcomes all knowledgeable people to join us."
Song Ci was busy recruiting talents, while Shuang Ma and One Li beside him had different thoughts.
After listening to Song Ci's brief introduction, Li Yan gained a more comprehensive and systematic understanding of big data. Baidu was also very envious of Tenda Group's core technology.
When it comes to data volume, Baidu Search is definitely second to none. If it can be used as efficiently as Tenda Group, there will definitely be unexpected results.
Ma Jieke is thinking about how Alibaba Group can use big data to serve small and medium-sized enterprises.
Only Maberly was frowning. Tengda's strength was far beyond his imagination, and he couldn't help but worry about the future of WeChat.
After taking a look at the high-spirited Song Ci, he suddenly made up his mind that he could not delay any longer. Tomorrow he would make the data of QQ and WeChat interoperable, and he would revitalize WeChat even by forcibly infusing the data.
