Internet entrepreneurship is not a pit?

Some internet startups are pits.

Internet entrepreneurship is not a pit in itself.

Many people talk about the internet industry will say, "Circle money", "burning Money," cheat "; these are indeed the phenomenon of this industry-a variety of concepts, true and false data, there are tens of tens of millions of of people to invest in these look silly traditional industry cases, said impetuous or bubble, really are right.

But, you look in the back, the Internet, especially the current mobile internet, really did not change your life?

You are in a foreign land, not because of a mobile phone map without worrying about getting lost?

You buy a mobile phone or home appliances, is not already directly online shopping without going to suning gome Best Buy around?

You take a taxi in the rainy day, is not add 10 block 20 to have the taxi to be speeding to kneel lick, but does not have the rain to shiver for two hours?

Do you have any idea, such as the subject, do not go straight to know to listen to other people give you nonsense?

These previously unresolved issues, not previously thought of the need, is not what the group of Internet entrepreneurs are doing, right?

So, this industry more foam, no more, but it is indeed in a moment non-stop forward, in the all-pervasive infiltration and transformation of our lives.

Last week, I went to Beijing for a round, and took a few activities, one of which is IDG's 2014 Silicon Valley dialogue in Beijing, sharing the economy and O2O Consumer-to-consumer Summit. Sitting in the hall, I thought, if I were a person from a purely traditional industry, I really should have a cold sweat, because there are a large number of smart people on the financial, recruitment, wedding, education, home Economics, catering, beauty industry, they have the internet thinking and technical means, have relevant industry background, Behind there are tens of millions of or even hundreds of millions of of the financial support, especially, they do not consider making money at the beginning, why, because as long as the ability to turn only the traditional means of manufacturers, they will naturally start to make money ah.

This is called to go their own way, so that others have no way to go, or in fashionable words, called "dimensionality attack."

This is really a very scary thing to think about.

So as an internet company, the beginning does not consider the profit, really can not say that people are liars, Google was not profitable at first, Alibaba first unprofitable, Tencent started not profitable, Amazon even now have no profit, but now who can question their (potential) profitability?

If a product can save hundreds of millions of of people time, Google, for example, creates deals for hundreds of millions of of people, such as Taobao, and establishes and maintains links to hundreds of millions of of people, such as micro-letters, which create great value for the society, and in this great value, a piece of cash, that is, to be present, just a little later, The problem of changing that way.

For example, our scallop nets are online education, and people often ask me about the business model, and it's possible to make a lot of money. I do not answer at present, but I am very optimistic about the internet mode of medical and educational innovation; the adaptation of arrogant Liu said, medical treatment is to give life time, and education is to give time to life, if I can let tens of millions of people's life so good a little bit, finally incredibly still can't make money, then I also recognized.

You know, we're really lucky, you know, to have a computer, Internet, wireless, GPS smartphone. These things, in the eyes of a man or two centuries ago, are more than black technology.

If we are lucky, we are likely to enter even more incomprehensible sci-fi eras in our lifetimes, such as the colonization of Mars, the perception of neural-level virtual reality, quantum computing, real artificial intelligence, the digitization of consciousness and even immortality.

In short, whether the coming of the twilight of the old days or the dawn of the new era, our group of people, this is a large willow of the Tou in the dots.

So if you think about it, is it still a pit?

Finally send Elon Musk sentence: either stand on the sidelines, or mix.
