I've seen 2017, why live in the present?

2014 of the annual product is micro-letter, 2014 of the annual company is Millet, 2014 of the annual event is Alibaba IPO.

The first conclusion is that your phone's power consumption tells me to open "set-general-dosage-battery usage" to see how much of the top micro-letter is more than the second?

Micro-letters are devouring everything.

Marc Andreessen says "software is eating everything." This sentence in exchange for the 2014 Chinese Internet, it should be said that "micro-letter is eating everything."

The microblogging 460 million-month active user is twice times more than the Alipay wallet, three times times the microblog. More importantly, the micro-credit ecology is to the user's basic necessities of life, electricity, media, O2O services, all opponents once proud of the scene in a sense of the impact.

"King" Friend Circle micro-business suddenly like the spring breeze, although people hate but also live moist. Alibaba has blocked access to the micro-trust and Taobao, but has been unable to prevent micro-credit from entering the "pay-for-retail" stage in social relations.

Department office a paper issued, "Communists" become the universe's first micro-trust public number is imminent. The government Weibo was one of the most proud resources of China's Twitter. During the trial of Bo Xilai, the Jinan Institute of Micro-blog witnessed the news history of the Miracle: "The media in the scene around the screen to shoot micro-Bo, Phoenix female anchor broadcast side brush Weibo."

Micro-trust Friends Circle also brought a long stagnation of the HTML5 industry, "surround the Nerve cat", "looking for the ancestral name", "Xi Night Night Zhongnanhai" to celebrate the brush screen. H5 programmers are worth a night of skyrocketing, the production of H5 content of the studio has been ranked after the Spring festival.

Micro-faith at the same time, easy to believe and intercourse although yell loudly, but can only "dozen a 60 points". Baidu launched a year ago light applications and this year's launch of the direct number are still in force. Because the mobile end lacks a "Midas" Super Application, Baidu also in various fields to find strategic partners to ensure that the product landed, and Wanda cooperation with the electric business, and Uber cooperation, and the Chinese fund to launch the "Baidu Hundred", these big moves compared to a and T, it looks like a six months or even more.

Millet Zhi is transforming China's manufacturing industry

2014 China TOP20 Internet company, in addition to Millet, who also achieved more than four times times the growth. Three years ago, Millet mobile phone mode is also known as "cheat" and "marketing", today, whether the Charm clan, 360 or Lenovo, Huawei, are copied and millet the same play.

In 2014, lei the battlefield from smartphones to smarter hardware and content in two larger markets. From the end of last year to invest in rice to prepare millet hand ring to the end of 1.2 billion strategic investment in the United States, progress can be said to be swift. Sina Meritorious Editor Chen joined, successive investment Youku and Archie art. In infrastructure, the thunder and the century interconnection of investment, and Jinshan debt expansion is in the next year's content and large data escort.

Now the ecological circle of millet has three layers, the first layer is the autonomous screen equipment, that is, mobile phones, televisions, flat piece, the second layer is its investment in the dozens of home intelligent hardware Company, the third ring layer is its electric quotient and content platform, carrying millet users consumption. MIUI is a hub that runs through three laps. The rest have some seemingly casual drop, such as Shun for the fund for the building blocks box, you+ Investment, are hidden mystery. Don't forget, there are two listed companies in the Lei Department, YY and Cheetahs.

This year's layout is complete, Lei has stopped talking about "hardware, software, the Internet Troika" story and "MIUI is the core advantage." Mr Ma tied Alibaba to the future of China's retail industry, and Lei chose the story of manufacturing:

"The Millet model is a revolution in the promotion of the entire industry ... I think after 10 years, you will find that millet really changed China, at least in the industry. ”

Talking about the success of millet, can not but mention 360 of frustration. At the start of the year when Millet valued $10 billion trillion in financing, 360 of the shares also soar up to 120 U.S. dollars, the market value of nearly 15 billion U.S. dollars. The soft, hard two companies are thought to be the second-tier leaders most likely to hit the bat oligarchy.

However, after a year, 360 share prices suffered a halving. Birejun also a year old Zhou issued the "Take AK47, with me to the south to do the mobile phone" "Internal mail",

A stubborn person like me, will always come back, hehe.

He returned, in the last half month of 2014, 360 to spend 2.5 billion yuan to invest in Cool great God, launched "360 free phone", attack Baidu is "rogue software". In the name of the user, Zhou again to play "safe" and "free" two cards. Routine is still the same routine, but no longer the 3Q war and the "360 Special machine" momentum. 360 share price is still falling, applause sparse.

Alibaba "Open Sesame"

The annual event is Alibaba IPO no suspense, do not believe you can go home to ask your parents. The impact of Ali's IPO goes well beyond the Internet, and in addition to pushing Ma to the top of the world's richest man, thousands of billionaires have been created. This reduces the number of people entering the Internet industry, to join the psychological threshold of the start-up companies. On 36 Krypton, the discussion of "Why the wise don't come to business" is a discussion of the psychological threshold.

Moreover, the tens of millions of millionaires who benefit from Alibaba's IPO will not be able to invest in real and hard currency, as their predecessors, Wenzhou's property groups and gold-buying aunts. More entrepreneurial teams will be more likely to find funds and partners, and take a look at Hangzhou's booming early ventures, where 36 of Krypton has just held open days.

Another door open to Alibaba's IPO is internationalization. American investors no longer believe that Chinese internet companies are small fish in shallow pools, and WSJ believes Ali has invested in all aspects of the industry chain in the US, mobile search start-ups Quixey, car sharing services Lyft, E-commerce website 1stDibs and messaging application Tango, Alibaba is expected to find ways to use the Internet to expand the U.S. market. WSJ commented:

Alibaba, not from Silicon Valley, has achieved such a feat and can see its incredible subversion. We should be careful, because Ali seems to have begun to control the overall situation, perhaps the future will defeat Amazon to become the boss of E-commerce.

In addition to high-end markets such as Europe and the United States, Chinese Internet companies have greater opportunities in the broader Latin America and the hinterland, millet in the Indian market three months to sell 1 million mobile phones, cheetahs, UC, and even apus such start-ups are rapidly accumulating tens other users overseas. Apus's CEO is the top 360 VP, he says:

The future of the global Internet landscape will become three: the United States Internet, the Chinese Internet, other Internet. Only Chinese companies can serve well in overseas markets that are below the Chinese market. American culture is too strong to be narcissistic. Chinese people are very good at and willing to do micro-innovation and localization.

This year, Alibaba sales of 57.1 billion of the double 11, really do "buy all over the world, sell all over the world." Cat International, Taobao overseas, fast sales, such as the first participation in "Double 11". Hong Kong, Russia and the United States are the three destinations for exports of goods. We can imagine that the future 3 billion of the developing market accepts fast iterations, inexpensive Chinese hardware and software products, then the Chinese Internet companies offering products will value geometry?

2014 of entrepreneurs and investors

People in the mechanical era of the imagination of the future, so there is a steampunk, people in the electronic era of the future, so there is the "2001 Space Odyssey." If we only look at today's Batm these giants, then our vision of the future will be the shape and God is not.

2014 is the year of mobile Internet explosive growth, and it is the first year of the network of things. At the end of this year, we can say that the interconnection of all things is no longer a dream, but a product being developed in the hands of all entrepreneurs.

The creators of the 2014 content are finally beginning to receive wide respect from the Internet. Video site "Copyright war" after the start of self-made content, the content of the strong side in the Giants, "never Thought of" and "violent Walk Comics" also fire two grassroots team. After the video, the online music market also began an arms race in copyright. Network literature also ushered in the weather, Shanda and Tencent integration, Baidu played alone, the great God author became the focus of contention.

"Juvenile can not be bullied" through the circle of friends and micro Bo rapid fermentation, so that the two major listed companies to apologize at the same time. Font entrepreneur Shang and his partner, Guo Fan, have attracted a large number of investors after being reported by 36 Krypton.

2014, there are 10,000 technology start-ups in Zhongguancun, Chaoyang also added 8,000 "literary" start-up companies.

Cafes, incubators, Demo Day into the trinity of the Entrepreneurial school, countless idea in word of mouth into a real product. "MVP guidelines", "lean Entrepreneurship", "User Experience", "Tuyere" has become zhongguancun everywhere can hear the conversation. Li Vanchang's "sense of participation", Wang "nine defeats a win", Peter Thiel Zero to one into the circle of the public reading.

Luo in this year understand how to do an entrepreneur, design products to consider the feasibility, to listen to Chang, let professional team for the company with salt. And the king who tore at Youku also makes a reflection, this event educates the entire video industry. And Luo with whenever literary youth Ji understand the product to try and wrong, can not indulge in personal and team feelings, to face a larger user groups. Watercress also in this year finally want to understand how to fully serve the mobile end of the cultural and recreational youth.

2014 is also a bumper harvest of the year, although Zhang Ying sent a warning of the winter, three months later Jingwei China is still in the streets of the IPO to make a pot full. The US-listed Chinese internet company has a market capitalisation of more than 300 billion dollars this year, and investors are being inspired by great prospects, who are as "rich and headstrong" as bat. has been a "taxi subsidy war" drops and fast, respectively, and completed hundreds of millions of of dollars in financing, ready to be in the car market again a firefight. Their financing has exceeded most of the IPO.

O2O services, Internet finance, online education is also booming, bits of the world to transform the atomic world has become this year's early startups favorite topic of discussion. Yes, we are transforming the real world.

Don't live in the present

Of course, you can't put all your eyes on the bright side.

For example, in all of these smart hardware this year, we haven't seen a truly "smart" device. Nest and Apple Watch are good, but they are still the dependencies of the current smartphone ecosystem. Truly subversive devices are hidden in Oculus Rift and Google Glass, and we can only glimpse it.

For example, domestic investment institutions are not enthusiastic about technology investment. Compare Google Ventures's investment in Health and life sciences to 36% this year. The most heavily invested area last year was the consumer goods market. Consumer spending has plummeted from its biggest share in the past three years to a 66% drop to 8% last year. Take a look at their portfolio: Foundation dentistry, Transcriptic,calico,flatiron Tiyatien ... This is more than Tencent investment clove Garden in the industrial chain cut deeper.

Chinese internet giants still have a lot of gaps in technology accumulation compared to their American counterparts, which is why they have a patent bottleneck after they go out to sea. Even if we look at the so-called "early venture capital" between China and America, we do not see the same momentum in the US at home in the more frontier areas of SaaS, artificial intelligence and big data. Sequoia China founder Shen said:

"In the past few years, the US has accounted for half of the development of the Internet in the use of cloud computing as a technology, and China is still in its infancy," he said. ”

This is a gap, but also a huge opportunity and space. Since the birth of China's Internet, it has created one boom and one bubble in these gaps. It is only today that these gaps seem a step away, and the bliss of milk and honey in front seems to be within reach.

Now, I'm sure entrepreneurs have seen a lot of things for 2015 or even 2017 years, so they don't want to live in the present.
