The IT industry has been going through Shikong years so far. The first ten years (1980 ~1990 years) The key word is hardware, this stage of the king is IBM.

The second Decade is from 1990 to 2000, the key word is software, the Global King is Microsoft. China, for the first time in a decade, has caught the chance, as software has driven the development of personal computers. China's first it company was born at this time, the Lenovo Company I previously served, Lenovo seized the PC for 10 years.

The third Decade is from 2000 to 2010, the key word is the Internet, Google overtook Microsoft as a new generation of hegemony. In terms of human resources, most of the jobs Google and Microsoft are engineers, but the two companies are really different two-generation companies – one is a software company and the other is an internet company. China seized the decade with the "three Mountains"-Baidu, Tencent, Alibaba-which, by market capitalisation, ranked among the top ten internet companies in the world.

The fourth decade is the mobile Internet we are now experiencing, just the third year, the industry as a whole there are variables, and UC is a member of the struggle.

There is an important difference between the mobile internet and the PC Internet, which is about the difference in the core market.

The Global center of PC Internet is in the United States, I remember 2000 years when China's PC Internet Corps will come to study in the United States, because the United States is the creator and leader of the PC Internet. There has always been a phrase called "Copy to". I have been correcting this view when I was talking to the industry in the United States, and I said it was not "copy to", but "Copy to Global". In fact, not only does China not have a global leading enterprise, does the global development of Internet enterprises, in addition to American enterprises, there are other countries of enterprises? No European enterprises, no Japanese enterprises, no Australian enterprises, they are regional, are local. If one day there is a new business in the United States, such as group buying, Japan, Germany, Australia will be the next day their own group purchase site-China and their differences may be only the next day will appear 1000 group buying sites, so this is not copy to China, but copy to Global.

While the globalisation of all the non-US internet companies in the past has not been successful, the phenomenon is not repeated on the mobile internet, and the key point is lifestyle-related. The fastest pace of mobile Internet development is in Asia, not in the US, where the US mobile internet started with Apple's iphone in 2007, while Japan's mobile internet began in 2001, and China's mobile Internet began in 2004.

Why is the mobile internet not driven by the United States? The reason is simple, the United States is living in the wheels of the country, they commute every day is driving a car, hands tied to the steering wheel, and the whole of Asia, whether Japan, Korea, China, India, Indonesia, are traveling to public transport mainly countries. So these users are in fact about hours every day in public transport, there is no other thing capable, mainly is holding a mobile phone in play. One way of life is that the whole of Asia's mobile phone business is much faster than America's.

For example, 2007, 2008 if the United States to see mobile Internet, will find that the United States mobile phones are "silly big thick", is a simple communication tool, while the Japanese mobile phone, South Korea's mobile phone is designed to be cool, because the mobile phone is regarded as a person's decoration. The United States PC Internet is very developed, so mobile Internet is at most a supplement. And throughout Asia, many places are leapfrog development--pc the Internet has not developed, mobile communication has developed rapidly, resulting in the entire mobile internet for it is the Internet. In India, for example, mobile internet users have long surpassed PC users; to Indonesia, 240 million people, not to mention, Indonesia is the Thousand island, no way to large-scale installation of fixed networks, in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia, UAE, you will also see many users of the so-called internet is mobile internet.

And China's mobile internet market, the birth soon became the world's largest mobile internet market, because the population is too big. In the field of mobile Internet, I believe that the pattern formed after ten years will be "the common global market of Chinese enterprises and American enterprises", in which China is the market Center and America is the Innovation Center. There may be a lot of non-US companies going global and leading the industry.

So, if you talk about Internet entrepreneurship now, you need to look at the global pattern of the entire mobile internet. In theory, entrepreneurship in the US or Asia has its own rationale. It's not like PC Internet, if it's ten years ago, you guys are in America, and I'm definitely suggesting that you start a business here. But mobile internet is not the same, if you have the idea of the students here, I would also strongly recommend you come with me to Asia to start a business, go east, because it will become the entire mobile internet leadership market.

Finally, a brief talk about the "fifth decade" of the key words, I think is "artificial intelligence." Essentially, it is in front of the "four decades" are in the preparation of artificial intelligence, such as hardware, software and other infrastructure, and the Internet is a solution to the problem of data-the original is not data, now all put on the internet, can be centralized analysis of data. The most important thing about mobile internet is to solve the obstacle of space-time.

For example, the very popular driverless cars, in fact, are artificial intelligence. If you're going to make a driverless car, you have to get the hardware, software, Internet and mobile internet technology to a high level, and now some very hot concepts like big data and machine learning are all for artificial intelligence. In the future, unmanned vehicles may be first applied to the logistics industry.

In short, the core is the accumulation of the previous enough, the fifth will become artificial intelligence 10 years. By then, there would have been a qualitative change in the way people lived.
