Seeing that Musk was unwilling to say more, the host turned the conversation to Zheng Li: "Mr. Zheng, what is your opinion on this issue?"
Zheng Li stated frankly: "We need to improve the social welfare system to provide a safety net for individuals."
Resources will definitely become more and more abundant in the future.
With abundant resources, we should vigorously develop science and technology, and while not abandoning the low-end industrial chain, upgrade the mid-to-high-end industrial chain.
For example, with a population of 1.4 billion, only about 100 million people need to work to support the living needs of 1.3 billion people.
In fact, with the development of technology, there is no need for so many people to work.
Work should be a matter for a select few.
The high-level dialogue that day was quite peaceful, except for a slight tension at the beginning.
Perhaps because Musk realized that Zheng Li's response to his question was difficult for him to answer, he stopped trying to gain the upper hand verbally.
In today's mainstream terms, the two are among the "top influencers" in the global business world.
The number of people watching the live stream globally that day exceeded ten million, and the topic sparked widespread and profound discussions on major social media platforms in China.
"I feel that both Zheng Li and Musk are extremely optimistic about the industrial internet sector."
Given that the theme of this year's Wuzhen Summit is the Industrial Internet, and industry leaders are optimistic about the Industrial Internet field.
Major securities firms and funds worked overtime over the weekend to launch an industrial internet ETF within the next two weeks.
The so-called financial influencers on Douyin have already helped retail investors select listed companies related to the industrial internet.
Their fans saw that these tickets had risen well in the past two years and were a good choice, so they listened to the advice of the big V and stood guard for several years.
In the A-share market, a good company does not necessarily mean a high valuation or a guaranteed stock price increase.
"Wow, Musk really knows China well. He understands China better than I do. I didn't even know that China has the concept of four major urban clusters."
"Why do I feel like Musk understands China better than Zheng Li does?"
"Zheng Li's answer was completely out of touch with reality, which shows that he has been in a high-level position for too long."
"Given China's approach, improving welfare benefits is like treating constipation; how could it possibly require only 100 million people to work?"
"Zheng Li's idea is good, but there is no possibility of it being implemented in the short term."
"In recent years, the employment of truck drivers has indeed been greatly affected. When I take a ride-hailing car on the road, I like to chat with the driver. From my conversations, I have seen many truck drivers switch to ride-hailing drivers recently."
If future urban transportation truly becomes driverless, what will happen to them?
“My father used to be a truck driver. Fortunately, he was a truck driver for JD.com and was able to transfer to another job. Now he has become a JD.com deliveryman.”
Many of his truck driver friends are not doing as well as him; some work as security guards, others deliver food, and still others do housekeeping.
This is the first time I've learned that America has encountered a similar situation, with their truck drivers frequently staging large-scale protests and demonstrations.
I haven't seen any related reports in domestic news media.
In fact, China has a similar situation, but the information cannot be spread on the Internet.
"I felt a chill run down my spine when I heard about the future from these two top figures."
Musk is clearly extremely rational and entirely self-interested, which has absolutely no overlap with the traditional Chinese concepts of self-cultivation, family harmony, governing the state, and bringing peace to the world.
Zheng Li, on the other hand, showed that he had never lived at the bottom of society, was unfamiliar with specific matters, and was very idealistic.
However, it is entirely understandable that he received 50 million in venture capital before even finishing his freshman year of college, and then founded a company with a market value of over one trillion in just over five years, in US dollars.
It's normal to be out of touch with reality; they're always flying in the sky.
From the perspective of technological development, the future will be dominated by oligopolies.
These two speeches, arguably the most prestigious of business leaders, demonstrate that in this future, it will be impossible for top-tier entrepreneurs to empathize with ordinary people.
There has always been a saying that there are individuals who betray their class, but not groups that betray their class.
"Aren't Zheng Li and Musk both mages? I was really looking forward to their conversation; I thought there would be a magical duel."
Previously, when the Singapore R&D center of Kechuang Bio was robbed of trade secrets by Tesla employees, Zheng Li didn't want to give Musk an Avada Kedavra attack.
Musk's Neuralink has been second to none in the field of brain-computer interfaces for a long time. I feel that I will never see it surpass Kechuang Bio in my lifetime. Doesn't Musk want to give Zheng Li a death curse?
It's so boring for mages to just talk back and never actually fight.
In fact, it wasn't just him who was looking forward to it; audiences around the world were also anticipating a magical duel between the two who had a history of conflict.
This is also a rare occasion for two publicly known monks to meet in a public setting.
Actually, a similar suggestion was made by the staff of the Wuzhen Summit. Should I mention it briefly? The two of you could exchange your understanding and insights on magic on site.
It was also an indirect way of asking the two if they wanted to stage a magical battle.
The summit organizers were furious: "Are you crazy or am I crazy?"
You want two billionaires worth over 200 billion US dollars to perform for you in public? How dare you?
If something unexpected happens, who will be responsible?
Who here is capable of taking responsibility?
It's really not worth it for a little bit of traffic.
