The following is a transcript of Lei speech:

Lei: First of all, thanks to Tencent, thank Sing to give me such a chance to communicate with so many webmaster, this is my pleasure. Because we are also discuz! users, I also very much like discuz!, so to come here with the National webmaster Communication, for me is a very exciting thing.

What do I want to communicate? Yesterday I received an interview with a foreign media, he came up to say "You are Chinese apples what do you think?" I said that millet and Apple are very different companies, he said different in what place? In fact, this meeting I believe you know, millet and Apple is not the same, millet is the way to do the internet phone, in other words, millet believe the power of the Internet.

As you can see, this figure is in the past, and I write this number again because I would like to share my experience of starting a business with you. In more than two years to achieve 10 billion of the sales is not an easy thing, in the world is a very difficult thing. So what's behind this score? This is the topic I really want to talk about today, it is very regrettable that three years ago when I started a business, spent two or three months, an internet start-up company we found only 100 users. I believe all the entrepreneurs in this room may have more users than I did in my year. Then we had no way to put these 100 users on the cover of my product in our rice UI system, and we thanked them for giving us a chance to realize our dreams.

This is actually the first 100 users have played a decisive role. The second week became 200 users, three weeks four users, the fifth week was eight users, and the sixth week was 1600 users. In 1.5 of the time to release the millet generation of the UI already has 2.5 million users. On our three anniversary in April, we had a 15 million meter UI user. I think a short period of three years, millet with their own growth experience to prove the power of the Internet and the development of the Internet model of advanced.

I'm here to share our understanding of the Internet and how we can do it with the Internet. So that's why I came to discuz!, because the millet and rice UI users each day in the forum submitted a variety of opinions and suggestions, participate in the discussion more than 200,000, I believe that the Millet forum do not say is a vertical forum, is placed in all the forum estimates also ranked in the top ten.

Cumulative three years of time submitted 130 million, these posts dazzling, I pass many of your posts, some posts as long as printing out 20 pages. Our greatest enthusiasm, we have aroused the user's greatest enthusiasm to participate in the development of the mobile phone.

Then I made an analogy with them, I said 130 million posts printed out, if you say that each post only one piece of paper can be around the earth a week. And just started the start-up company three years ago only 14 people, and more than most of the entrepreneurs in the company to small, we do not have so many people to do? We use the open mode of the Internet, encourage more netizens to participate together, just the beginning of the Rice UI only simplified, traditional and English version, the results of less than six months when the world's netizens to help us translate the 25 language version in 17 countries to establish the fan station, at the end of the year is 25 languages 17 fans station, Today, the webmaster of Taiwan station became the first person to employ millet, although he was still studying in graduate school.

When we pass the Taiwan market, our idea is that as long as we maximize the fans and their followers, I believe that the market in Taiwan will be successful. We know that the Taiwan market is an extremely competitive market, go to the telecom business Hall felt the incomparable pressure, because each business hall only put four mobile phones, Apple, Samsung's two and Htcone, the millet is the fifth place, the Taiwanese income is higher than our income, high a mobile phone feel indifferent, They don't buy your phone because your phone is cheap, and the Taiwanese market is a highly competitive market. I went to the first media meeting will attract a lot of rice noodles, I feel their incomparable enthusiasm, I said we actually just need time, like three years ago in mainland China to do the same thing. Three years ago we have ignited the fire in all parts of the world, and I firmly believe that a single spark can start a prairie.

And in fact it is the participation of these netizens, is just three years ago, 14 of small companies have the opportunity to step by step growth. What do I think is more frightening? It is the meter UI that separates the system kernel from the presentation layer, which means that our earliest batch of topics is programmable, so that what kind of presentation you need will be. For example, the user has a very simple theme, imitating iOS and imitating the HTC UI, I would like to say that when you take the layers and the kernel layer away, there are designers involved in your mobile phone, and they have designed thousands of themes to support 10,000 different ways of blending. They can do all kinds of designs. can also be made into free desktop, that is, can be casually placed.

The rice UI was developed over a 1095-day cycle, and after a 138-week iteration, millions of people were called in. I think the internet is open and shared, a lot of people do not understand the secret of millet, millet up the secret is because I am an enthusiast, I have a lot of ideas on mobile phones, when my ideas and Nokia chat, Nokia's global research and development president may listen to me, but they will change? Do you have a problem with Apple today and have a better design? I want to do you have ideas about mobile phones, have a opinion, there is a company willing to help you do, willing to help you realize the idea. This is the idea of doing millet, after I found the biggest difference is what? If a hardcore user participates in the design of the meter UI, he will be very excited to introduce Millet to all his friends, classmates and colleagues.

So it will soon spread. Here I want to talk to you about the Internet research and development model is very important, the maximum number of users gathered together and rapid iteration, millet in the past three months to adhere to the weekly iteration, weekly release a new promulgated, weekly listening to the views of users, the Internet research and development model into the mobile phone system research and development, so that we maintain a rapid response speed.

Do a little advertising, the rice UI is not just the UI, there will be a chance for us to take a closer look at the meter UI includes 30 modules, in each module our goal we all want to achieve the highest level in the country, so for each module are under a relatively large kungfu, this module will not start to say.

So we believe in Word-of-mouth, we believe in the power of the Internet, and that's what I've been talking about for the past few years, Internet seven word, a lot of people may have heard, my understanding of the Internet is seven words, "focus, Ultimate, Word-of-mouth, fast" I do millet is also used these seven words step-by-step to do. For example, focus, the past three years we have done three products, the ultimate we always strive to make the best products, we drive ourselves mad, we must make the best things, word-of-mouth, we hope to achieve beyond the expectations of things. Because only beyond the expectations of Word-of-mouth. Third, we have been in the process of development to ensure a very sharp development efficiency, so this is what we do a better place.

Today is here to share so much, thank you!
