Domestic entrepreneurs stay on the micro-innovation level

Baidu Hundred Dialogue column "The Big Talk" Please to a big star, Negroponte. This is commendable because Negroponte is an American computer expert, a professor at MIT and founder of the academy's Media Lab. The visionary comments about the tech industry are mainly as follows:

In 1, in 1984, Negroponte the original ebook at the first TED conference and predicted that multi-touch screens would become standard.

In 2, in 1997, Negroponte saw the future prosperity of the Chinese internet market and invested in Sohu, the Chinese internet company, which became one of the most well-known portals in the country.

For such a visionary, it is necessary for us to listen to his new ideas. For example, in this Baidu hundreds of dialogues on the column, he mentioned a point of view, "gradualism is the enemy of creativity, most of the domestic actually micro-innovation, but this is not really promote change, the real change in the world is the technological innovation."

The reason for this view is because negroponte that gradual improvement and micro-innovation, although the birth of many good products and companies, although the birth of a lot of good products and companies, but hindered innovation.

Negroponte cited an example of the current domestic bee-flocking smartphone project. Negroponte that domestic manufacturers are only in the focus of transformation, not real technological innovation.

Negroponte's point of view has caused great repercussions in China's creation circle, a number of VCs have expressed similar views with Negroponte, for example, founder and executive director of the venture commune, Yi, that the current lack of technical innovation in China, but a number of micro-innovation level and business model innovation, which is very bad.

Yi said that in the best entrepreneurial environment in the United States Silicon Valley, the companies here are basically technology-driven companies, we have good technology to start a business, but in China, is not the case, most of the company's innovation is only micro-innovation.

There are also investors disagree, for example, Lenovo Star Venture Capital Co., Ltd. deputy general manager Zhouzhiang that the micro-innovation and technological innovation should not be antagonistic, both sides are not contradictory, but are very important.

Zhouzhiang that the state-owned many technical innovation companies, such as the promotion of security payments Alipay, Tencent's virtual props, and Shi Yuzhu invented the free online game model.

But in fact, the above companies in the United States can find the company, such as Alipay in foreign countries corresponding to PayPal, such as QQ on the standard ICQ, as for game companies, in foreign countries are everywhere.

But the companies are a little bit like the Apple iphone, through gradual innovation, micro-innovation, and a little bit of a giant company. From a keyboard phone to an Apple phone, the phone has been around, changing a trend through a pattern that is an important innovation.

However, Zhouzhiang also admits that most of the domestic companies are still at the micro-innovation level, a distance from revolutionary technological innovation, but both micro-innovation and technological innovation should be encouraged and advocated.

Conclusion：

Silicon Valley has always been a technology-driven company, so we see that the United States is the birth of a lot of giant companies, and in China, those who have succeeded through technological innovation have become the Giants in the field, such as Ali and Tencent mentioned above. With regard to micro-innovation and technological innovation, this is a bit like continuous innovation and disruptive innovation, and disruptive innovation is a small number of enterprises, but, through the accumulation of continuous innovation, can ultimately make stunning achievements.
