Li Kaifu talks with employees of innovative workshop

Kai-Fu Lee's lunch is prepared by Mrs.

August 22, the network pushing hands "Qin fire Fire" and "Li two demolition four" because the rumor was caught 3 days later, "news broadcast" reported that Big V forwarding "exacerbated the rumor spread, rumors of side effects were several times magnified", while a sign of a smile on the screen-kai-fu Lee Weibo homepage screenshot.

Nearly 8 points, Innovation Factory spokesman Wang Huihui in the micro-letter received news, when he dialed Lee's phone, Lee's first reaction is: Ah, you also watch TV ah. ”

Lee, who doesn't watch TV, has more than 50 million followers on Sina Weibo, and then he sends out two tweets:

"I love Weibo" I have been writing Weibo every day for four years, hoping to help social progress through sharing. I share: Entrepreneurial model, technology trends, foreign cases, investment ideas, workplace advice, learning growth, parenting know-how, hot reviews, easy content. I am convinced that the importance of disseminating positive energy, I think criticism will bring progress, I insist on the matter does not stand, I agree that the greater the responsibility, I am opposed to the scandal of the hat.

--"The use of large data technology to catch rumors of rumor-mongering" suggested by the relevant units: 1) Please sina to restore all the deleted microblogging and forwarding, so as not to destroy the body, 2 to use the past report confirmed rumors and the relevant units think the most serious rumors as the seed, to create large data rumors set, 3 analysis forwarding path, zombie account, Justice evaluates the biggest rumor-mongering, the biggest hand-pushing plan, the biggest rumor-telling person. I am willing to participate in such a technical work.

The next day he sat down in front of me with a relaxed face. Wang Huihui on one side of the commentary: Kai Fu is a person who has experienced storms.

This is my third interview with Mr. Lee. There is no "precise design" of the program sense, he said in a light soft Taiwanese chamber: I am a harmless plant.

He has a fair complexion, more than 10 years of constant hair style meticulous, sitting in the glass partition office, there are questions to answer. Behind the green wall, the family blessing on the side, a family of people are hanging sweet.

Perhaps I do not admit that, as a famous young tutor and micro-Broad V, his label includes the soul of chicken soup, Gangzhi, successful learning ... Some ridicule, but "small fresh." Qiu Shi Theory network an article author does not think so, his qualitative is: "constitutionalism ideological trend" core backbone, employing the navy to attack the party and the government.

Disinformation。 I am neither a constitutional backbone nor employed a navy. ”

I asked Kai-fu Lee: "Send those two micro-blog, some people say is begging for mercy?" ”

"Please do not beg for mercy, you can see my one months of micro-blog after the talk." ”

Words are not full, but confidence is still. He has always expressed optimism-"I am an incurable optimist." The future will be better if we all take part in it. Everybody is pessimistic, all exit, will be more miserable. So be sure to embrace the concept of positive to participate. ”

Two days later, mutation, Shire prostitutes arrested news rob the eyeball. The poll results of a major newspaper circulated, "which Big V Turn Qin fire rumor most of the times?" "Of the 10 options, Kai-Fu Lee was ranked second, after Shire."

"Take care of him, I'll go first."

Lee, one of the most influential people on the Internet. When he appears in front of you, always maintain moderate restraint. "Have you forwarded the Qin fire to the microblog?" ”

"99.9% not." ”

"You quarreled with Fang, and everyone was afraid to tie him up." ”

"I can't say I'm not responsible, he did find a place that wasn't rigorous," he said. ”

He understood his advantage, "I am a person of sense of propriety." ”

This is the 15th year of his Chinese story, starting with the dean of the Chinese Academy of Microsoft. Accompanied by the crisis, all the way to overcome. Eliminate the Microsoft "talent Enclosure Movement" of the query and win and Microsoft's lawsuit; between Google and the Chinese government, he and the two sides of the deal, he trusted him, before the Google withdrawal, he transformed to run the innovation workshop, the outside world said he "difficult to succeed", "Start copying", he quickly into the Super Angel; Amazed at the changes in China, the former youth tutor has been upgraded to Weibo opinion leader.

Micro-Bo World, Tang June was played by the Ark of the disgraced, he survived the Ark of the doubt storm. Later even the Ark son in scold War angrily quit Sina, he still diligent business. As a Taiwanese, his fans are more than twice times the size of Taiwan's population.

Kai-Fu Lee seems determined to take root, quit the top multinational executives, abandoned the U.S. identity. "China is the real soil of the Chinese people. "he said.

In the summer of 1998, he interviewed more than 10 Chinese scholars and sent out dozens of e-mails, but no one walked with him to China. A friend said, "Do you know why American Chinese are so good?" Because the good Chinese are out. Another said: "Go back?" You have to deal with officials all day, lose face and say good things. ”

Kai-Fu Lee to Microsoft Vice President Rick Rester said: "The tube, I go first." ”

Only 6 members of the Institute had just been established, there are more than 300 people to participate in the celebrations, including 18 fellows, Professor 56, and 29 officials, more than 100 reporters silently. The famous journalist Lingzhijun that "Kai-Fu Lee knows he is stepping into a complex world, its success and failure, will no longer depend solely on the pure technology and his personal control factors, but depends on some very Chinese characteristics of the entanglements." ”

After the celebration, Lee did two things. One is to write to the officials to express their gratitude and the second is to visit the university. Research Institute listed the next day, he began to contact students. He does not consider the student submitting his resume as a plea for him, on the contrary, he came to China to find them.

In China, the "rejuvenating Strategy for science and education" has been in operation for 3 years. In Chus, foreign companies after the emergence of heat, "talent" has been repeatedly said. At the end of the century, young people are eager to open their horizons and "Connect with the world". A year ago, Bill Gates's speech at Tsinghua University was admired by a hero, and a year later NATO bombed the Chinese embassy in Yugoslavia, where angry protests were gathered inside and outside the capital. Computer students at various universities in Beijing are also posting slogans in their schools, one of which reads: "Boycott American goods, except computers!" ”

"We teach young people in China the latest technology to help them write papers, do research, go abroad, become famous, and read PhDs." "Kai-fu Lee feeling this time," everywhere popular. ”

Miss Fu

In 2000, Lee returned to Microsoft headquarters with two years of Chinese experience, a promotion, and a report on how to Succeed in China: "In China, the government is at the heart of the situation." Understanding how the Government works and building good relationships with the government is a crucial first step. ”

"It is particularly important to have a high-level relationship with the government. However, the actual planning, start-up and implementation of the project are middle-level cadres. After obtaining the approval of the central government, the local government decides the purchasing plan ... If you cannot establish a full range of government relations ... Will not be destined to operate efficiently.

"The spirit of the law may be more important than the provisions of the law." In China, the legal provisions are often broad and vague. The interpretation of laws in different ministries and professions is often different. A company with good government relations will be kindly informed of changes in the law, the effects of legal provisions on business, and advice on how to understand the provisions of the law. Companies that do not focus on government relations will be the victims of their own ignorance. ”

He believes the rise of China also reminds Microsoft: Imagine the market for 1.3 billion people!

He accompanied Bill Gates to visit China to help him improve tensions with the Chinese government over piracy and to remind foreign companies not to arrogant. In 2003, he also advised Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer to fly to Beijing to express his sympathy and support. Southern People's Weekly copyright

Relationships with students develop into self branding and careers. He created the "Open a Student Network" (I study the net), to 500,000 users to answer questions. In those years, the multinational company or the "American Dream" carrier, and intelligent, diligent, resume luxurious Kai-fu Lee, naturally by the Chinese youth as a blueprint for success.

However, Lee said, attention to students is to change their confused values, fame and fortune, on the success of the unified standards.

He wrote to Li Lanqing about education and was greeted by the top official in charge of education. Write 7 letters to Chinese students, say good faith, follow self, and also talk about the inspirational stories of Bill Gates and jobs.

The website and letters were Jes by college students, but he was challenged by Microsoft headquarters-what does this have to do with the business? Google has this in mind, and in order to get the chance to be president of China, he is willing to go to court with Microsoft. In his autobiography, he said: "Instead of being a shiny part that can be replaced at any time in a huge institution, I'd rather take advantage of the deep understanding of Chinese and American culture to do creative work in China." ”

Start Open and duplicate mode

"PR (public relations) affects HR (HR), PR with HR, with talent and innovation to impress the Chinese government do GR (government relations), the Internet observer Lin Kai-Fu Lee's logic," PR, HR, Gr Trinity, once the start of the complex mode, Kai-Fu Lee is invincible. " ”

The story begins with 32 tour speeches. 2005, the lawsuit is not finished, Lee has flown to China, every day a speech, interviews, meetings, exchanges. Then published a new book, "Do the best of yourself," Sales of more than 1 million copies. This trip attracted enough media attention, Wang Huihui said, it is at this time, Kai-Fu Lee became a public figure.

But the more difficult question is waiting for him. How does Kai-fu Lee communicate with Google and the Chinese government?

Kai-Fu Lee released information in the report: Google came to China to make money. When the official received the signal, it seemed a sigh of relief, "finally grew up, sent an adult in charge." "The difficulty is much greater than he imagined. "Keep looking for lines" is the role of Lee Kai-fu for the next 4 years. "A line is Google, a line is the Chinese government, the line a turn, I have to find space again." ”

"Compromise to have the space to develop products, so that Chinese netizens have the opportunity to contact more news, ideas, the final system must be due to the Netizen request and modify, rather than rely on a silly foreign company to boycott." "He finally persuaded the headquarters to adapt to Chinese law in the matter of censorship," he said. His proposal: to inform the user that the search is incomplete, to set the link button on the page, to switch to the full page and not to place the customer information in China.

"What is the standard of compromise?" I asked Lee Kai-fu.

"If you compromise, will the future be better?" Netizens can see more information and will later ask for more freedom. Then it should be done. ”

Lee maintained a tight balance, he also slowly read the workings of the Chinese government's machinery: "The Chinese government has no unified interests, only specific sectoral interests: the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs hope that the development of foreign enterprises, the new office care about the harmony of online speech, the Ministry of Public Security wants to crack down on crime, Ministry of To understand what the head of this department is thinking, it can often be seen from past resumes ...

Understanding the rules does not mean you can do as the Romans do. Ask officials not to eat more than 30 dollars, gifts can not exceed 20 U.S. dollars, Google has a strict set of rules. Lee insisted on not giving gifts, not eating, "or too embarrassing." "In order to adapt to Chinese-style competition, he has also proposed" purchase Flow ", but was rejected by headquarters. Finally, he mobilized engineers to speak at the university, on television, to attract users.

Google's share in the Chinese market has gradually increased, in mobile search, map application has become the industry leader. With the advent of the 2008 Olympic Games, the image of the country is increasingly open. Internet managers show a willingness to cooperate, Google has gradually been recognized by the government, Kai-Fu Lee has become a guest of all kinds of national meetings. In the most harmonious relationship, he was invited to visit the patriotic education base.

He became a trustworthy person, "they know I am not a troublemaker, both sides know I want to do this thing well." ”

Difficult to maintain balance

After the Olympic Games, the situation suddenly changed. Websites such as YouTube and Facebook cannot be opened. One respondent recalls that the official request to cancel the link button in the compromise, Kai-Fu Lee with several sets of plans to fly back to headquarters, hoping to put the button hidden in the level two menu, but also the headquarters of a tough attitude, never compromise. "Even if the search share drops, it doesn't matter. ”

Back in China, more crises followed. June 2009, Kai-Fu Lee to a hotel in Beijing agreed beforehand. Open the door of the conference room: More than 10 officials from China's internet regulatory authorities are waiting for him. He was asked to submit an apology letter after he was notified that Google was involved in the Yellow River.

Do not apologize for directly offending the government, the deterioration of relations in the future more difficult to get along. A formal apology is tantamount to admitting a breach of Chinese law, and Google is going to "surrender" to the relevant U.S. Department.

"In the end we wrote, ' It's a pity that you have a wrong understanding of your laws and regulations, ' and the Chinese seem to feel sorry, English is ' misunderstanding of Your law ', and there's room for imagination. Kai-Fu Lee waved his hand and said, "Do you think there is a sense of accomplishment in doing such things?" ”

Licensing door, involved in yellow door, tax evasion door, Kai-Fu Lee struggled to break through a checkpoint, "a hand tied to Baidu competition." "China's internet will become more and more open" seems to be an unfulfilled fantasy, the headquarters of Kai-Fu Lee gradually lost trust.

The officials still have a crush on him. One respondent provided a detail: involved in the most severe yellow storm, Kai-Fu Lee in a department was severely reprimanded, when he disgraced to the parking lot, behind the vigorous baritone, was just reprimanded his officials: "Kai Fu, just talk to you are working, a little more serious." My son is a fan of yours, come here, here are some of your books, give me your autograph. "They will occasionally ask Lee to tutor and advise their children."

On another occasion, a deputy minister visited Google headquarters and praised them: "Kai-Fu Lee is the most understanding Chinese businessman I have ever seen, and can represent your company's values well and understand the status quo of China, I hope he can continue to do it indefinitely." ”

4 years on, Lee found that "the government's trust in Google has gone from low to later, and back to a very low state". Local Internet companies have emerged from the naïve imitation of the rapid rise, Tencent market capitalisation once only 1% of Microsoft, has become the world's third largest internet company. With the fading of the halo of multinational enterprises, the struggle history of the local entrepreneur, MA and Yun, was molded into the new youth myth.

"Independent innovation" slogan increasingly loud, kai-fu Lee Research government five-year plan, "China's independent innovation, Google is reversed." Now I'll follow. He thought of the young mentor's identity, and then "all the dots", there was the innovation workshop, a new company to do early investment and entrepreneurial platform. Lee, who just survived the storm, once again attracted media attention. He gave a book, a speech, and was all the way to the heat. The theme is: innovation.

"Innovation" and entrepreneurship in China

"What is Lee's position in the history of Chinese innovation?" "I asked Xie, the most famous internet watcher in China, who served as CEO of Dispatch and general manager of Yahoo China."

Zero。 ”

I was slightly surprised. "Times" will be Kai-fu Lee as the impact of the era of 100 people, "innovation" or keyword. In the interview, Lee said to me: "Innovation should be said to be one of the most important words in my life, from doctoral thesis to Microsoft, from their own innovation to lead team innovation, to help young people to innovate, and then to the interpretation of Chinese-style innovation." ”

"China's iterative innovation brings together different inspirations, solves user problems, makes small innovations, upgrades and iterations, and makes the product as good as possible." The best mode of innovation is not to lock yourself in the room to pat a thing in the head, throw out to let everybody a burst of shock. ”

This cannot be called innovation, as defined by Xie. "Innovation itself is truly subversive," he said, "Lee is more like a preacher:" In China's modernization process to contribute feelings, promote innovation, introduce American society, introduce innovation success or failure of the lessons, let the start-up company to start more smoothly, his role in innovation is indirect. ”

Xie said: "Since 1999, there are too many people in China's internet industry to foster, incubate and nurture innovation in the banner of a large number of money directly or indirectly to a group of corrupt officials and relatives and friends hands." Some wear innovative clothes to make land and housing concessions, and now there is the government's Innovation fund, direct investment, the more than 10 years after the result is zero. Do not say that the great innovation, is the application level, or even the level of plagiarism, and can not find an example. ”

In this environment, Xie that Kai-fu Lee brought the modern enterprise game rules and humanistic literacy. "Kai-fu Lee wants special care with the government, to pass the documents, to the platform-to get a deputy mayor of the mayor, to get a Minister Deputy minister to give him the platform is very easy." But he's basically not doing these things. ”

Wang Huihui said that Kai-Fu Lee continued to continue Google style, do not cross the line, occasionally to the government officials sent to Taiwan letter, also because too cheap, was returned.

"In a society where speculation and plagiarism are rampant, he has been magnified as the benchmark or standard-bearer of China's innovation for the past 15 years." "This is the observation of another network observer.

Constantly have the local government invited Kai-fu Lee Open "branch", give preferential support, but some people accused of plagiarism, they said, Lee Kai-fu "began to replicate."

Another question points to his background: Can a person who has grown up in the United States and is out of a big business succeed in China and can help others start a business?

In the words of Kai-fu Lee: Starting from the Innovation workshop, the foreign background has no longer for him to add points.

The worship of multinational enterprises has subsided, the rise of local enterprises to bring the local logic of the promotion, a barbaric growth, Chinese-style success has not only become natural, and even has a unique rationality.

"Micro-letters are not the first to launch point-to-point functionality, nor is it the first to turn the address Book into a social chain, but for the first time," Lee said, "China's innovation model is a strong executive power of the iterative system, micro-letter, Baidu Success, no one said they are copied. ”

As for the success of the Innovation workshop, kai-fu Lee put the data to reason: Investment 53 companies, more than 20 to get a type of financing, valuations are between 50 million to 100 million U.S. dollars, the user volume is more than tens of millions. "Who will come to question us today?" ”

"I don't care about the so-called foreign halo," Lee handed me a card, "not even a doctor." I am what I am. ”

In the Innovation Workshop, kai-Fu Lee played a platform role again, "we are both investors and others to invest." I will try to meet and try to balance the interests of the three parties and the needs of the three parties. ”

Xu Chang, the founder and CEO of PA, told me that investor Lee Kai-Fu had given him enough credit. 2011 Xu Chang from the Grand winger came out, is a star entrepreneur, but he chose Kai-Fu Lee-they are firmly optimistic about the future of mobile Internet, and as a young mentor, Kai-Fu Lee personal brand for the rapid accumulation of users will be helpful.

"Innovative factory model is good for entrepreneurs," Xu Chang said, "the former best entrepreneurs to find VC, Chi Chi do a good job, they will also cut you a bargain." Give a little money to a large share. Now the best entrepreneurs go to innovation workshops. Wait until VC to take a. Find the price is very high, still have to vote. No vote, because the upstream has been stuck dead. ”

Xu Chang concludes, "China's entrepreneurial environment is like the African grassland." "In the afternoon of the 798 Art district in Beijing, he described the state of the chicken blood that the founders of the innovation Workshop had with each other, the collective joy of being masters and the inspiration for the young."

An entrepreneurial youth said to me, Lee was the team he hatched as "playing cards in the K", "no doubt the number of people." In the entrepreneurial dream, the life value of the inspiration, he is like "into the MLM (organization)." Every day everyone is talking about creative brainstorming. In the product phase, "fine-tuning" often replaces "innovation". The first priority is to attract users and occupy the market.

May, I and Kai-fu Lee to Xu Chang Company, a group of young entrepreneurs around him, cheerfully talk about technology and ideas. Kai-Fu Lee exudes a special leader breath, discuss a product, he proposed: and star cooperation, let the product into the concert, so that the audience can not refuse to install the use of ...

Kai-Fu Lee uses his own investment products, to share the convenience and experience of the product; he uses the products he invests to help him do social media, gain influence, and then share the means to gain influence; he makes friends on Weibo, from entrepreneurs to stars to grass roots, and "Every account you make has a place worth learning." A lot of friends, some people become their users, users also drive users, some people become collaborators, some investors, and others have become the object of investment.

What impact does Weibo have on business? Lee said, "The spread of my personal brand, but also spread the brand of Chinese culture, but also spread our investment philosophy, knowledge of technology, there are some investment companies." ”

He would also say that the aim is to make the world a better place, and others to be just incidentally. Business interests exist, and the "World is good for me" faith is also sincere enough. A more relevant word may be, win.

The violence on Twitter is better than the violence on the streets.

"Strangers See the first words I often say ――2002: I have seen you in the dialogue, 2005: I have seen the best of myself, 2009: I have seen the world because of you, 2010: I have seen your microblog. ”

In the "Micro Bo Change Everything" on the title page, Kai-Fu Lee wrote. He spent more than a year to raise his fans to more than 20 million. "Gradually lost the aura of foreign countries," he used the success of Weibo to continue the Chinese influence.

"Because I've written so many books and a bunch of readers, they make up my initial fan." From then on he will micro Bo into life, diligence, perseverance, laws, rain or shine. He also relishes how to use the products he invests in order to capture focus more accurately. When these instrumental marketing thinking caused the media to be curious to report, his delight is palpable, "free product advertising." ”

May be an unexpected gain. Weibo to help him from Beijing to China, "the beginning of the Micro Bo anti-trafficking, there are poor children to ask me for money, but do not know the operation of the group; Yihuang incident is the first time to know demolition, burn himself. ”

He gently took the feeling of seeing these social news, saying that it was the same as the emotional response of all. "I want to help the disadvantaged, which is part of many things I want to do," he said. ”

It's hard to hear words that are passionate and moral in his mouth.

"I am learning", this is Kai-Fu Lee's thinking. He spent a whole day watching and broadcasting the "7 23" train incident. This is the practice after his study-How to change the world. Ling case again aroused attention, micro-blog comments are all "ling things happen, quickly this site to the White House registration", Kai-fu Lee also sent a micro-blog: "I Weibo comments how so ah?" You mustn't look. "Netizens are guided in this way. "But I didn't say anything," he said of his own experience.

Inventory of micro-blog memorabilia, he took the "price-performance" of the ruler of the value of each thing: know that the ban will not be issued, things have not changed. Boycott "Not You", in fact, 35 micro-blog to achieve the target of criticism, after 80% of the time to do 20% of the effect, and then is emotional. Well, the bullet train incident was better ...

I once suspected that "make the world better" is just empty rhetoric, careful discrimination, there is value support, Kai-Fu Lee showed unity, but for him, those values may not need to speak more common sense.

Gangling, a senior Taiwanese media man and a mainlander from Taipei to Beijing, has many feelings: "There are many things you may have been accustomed to in mainland China, but the Taiwanese right concept will be ' how can you '." ...... See the mainland people are not good, can not help doing things, can't help talking ... Taiwan's second generation of mainlanders, under the influence of their parents, have a sense of responsibility to the mainland, not to regain it, but to hope it is good. ”

She said that Kai-Fu Lee is popularizing knowledge. "As a knowledgeable man, his popularity is more persuasive than some of the people on the mainland who shout slogans every day ... As the influence becomes bigger, walking will touch the bottom line. ”

His microblog account, which was banned for 3 days this year, is seen as a turning point. After the mentor, he has more "public" hat. Kai-Fu Lee does not claim it, given the professionalism and new connotations it has bestowed on it.

There is a growing number of speeches about political society, and fewer microblogs are being deleted, he says he is exploring the test line. Finding certainty in the unknown is a science man's thinking. Also reported several people, just want to know how Sina will deal with.

How to deal with business and politics? He shied away from political words, speaking for the sake of the society. He said there was a sense of propriety, "a sense of propriety and caution are two different things." The sense of propriety is that you can understand the different views of different people, know the consequences and premise of the matter, do not do is another thing.

Moving towards the public sphere is not only a value choice, but also a realistic basis. "Slowly, only two things on Weibo can survive, one is business marketing, the other is political history, social care." He may feel the point of speaking. "Gangling analysis" businessmen-public knowledge "why they are popular," because the mainland people more appreciate the rich ah. What rich people say makes sense. The second is that the real intellectuals are no longer able to tweet, and it's their turn to moderate them ... It's still risky, the smartest in the business. ”

A few days ago, when I asked the scholar Fu, he said he did not pay attention to the big V, but he cautioned that Big V does not have the essential meaning: "Large fans do not decide on the individual, but the decision on Sina." He put you in the front, you are easy to become large, they do not represent public opinion, but also represent business. Some people will never become large, shielding you, not to give you add powder, what is behind this? ”

In this emotional concentration, rumors, anti-rumors, anti-rumor of the strings of the external sound, the inverse of the external sound intertwined with one-this is only the corner of the perennial discourse. It is being tightened on one side and annoying and irritable. I have seen many people who have not been squeezed away, or have finally been unable to endure.

Listen to me, kai-fu Lee just continue to say moderate, rational, optimistic and strong heart. "Weibo is only a mirror, society, Micro Bo on how to, micro-bo violence is always better than the violence on the street?" ”

He was a steady, strong-willed man. Once and now employees have said, never see Lee lost his temper.

When the Ark son questioned, he was a high-profile challenge, self-confidence and Tang June completely different. But the escalation of the war, the voice of the demand for apologies, and eventually went to the United States to find proof, also apologized, admitting "vanity", finally passed the pass.

Why apologize? "You just make a mistake, no matter how big," Kai-Fu Lee explained, and then added, "I sent a microblog yesterday, wrote a wrong word, I also apologized, that is the thing." ”

The photographer, inviting him to wear a boxer suit, initially refused. He did not like violence, need not vent, also does not conform to the gentle image, finally looked to the Wang Huihui, "Approves is he to decide." Wang Huihui: Just as a battle with the Navy. Lee obediently put on gloves, active with the bounce.

Scold war frequency, ecological noisy, he was questioned why a micro bo on the automatic powder him, love children, spies ... He still responded with a lukewarm response. It's not worth mentioning, "I'm used to it now." ”

The family does not understand the "nice guy" kai-fu Lee will be scolded. They sometimes tell stories about the family--the uncle who stayed in the mainland was shot and her grandmother was starved to death. They said to Lee, we are lucky to avoid disaster, as a compensation for them.

Unknown line

May, I attended the U.S. Mito mobile phone conference with Lee. Xiaoping and other investors also came, Xiaoping on stage happy Humming song, Kai-Fu Lee took time in the PA broadcast the conference, two products he has invested money.

The living room, a row of white girls fluttering female models holding mobile phones, warmly greeting Guests group photo. Coming and going, laughing and talking, the camera voice mobile phone rang. have been immersed in playing micro-Bo Kai-Fu Lee suddenly escaped, whispered to me: "Everywhere is a trap ah." "I laughed aloud at his cautious pedantic."

"I have always cherished fame over cherishing other things, status, money. "The third interview with Kai-Fu Lee, he tone even a bit sad."

August 25 morning, see Qingdong released Micro Bo said Shire because of prostitution was arrested, he thought "and rumors." Then is the Hong Kong "Big Bulletin" released news, to the night of the news on the news of the CCTV. No. 29th, Xinhua News agency issued a warning about the Shire of moral altar. 30th, "news broadcast" spent one-tenth of the time, talk about the details of the prostitution case and Shire hobby.

"He's a big old man ..." said Kai-fu Lee, "I haven't seen anything like this in 20 years." ”

A few days ago, when I tried to find an entrepreneur to talk about Kai-Fu Lee, he hesitated on the phone. Finally he said, two big V (note: Refers to himself and Kai-fu Lee), so it is not good to flatter each other.

The last time see Lee, the atmosphere is a little heavy. He opened himself, counted the crises, and recalled the lawsuit before China, when he thought that he could only win, otherwise it would be ruined, and later understand that for the uncontrollable, can only be relieved.

As a tech man, he also invited two data companies to help him detect the tweets of the Qin fire. He explained to me in detail the principle of detection, suddenly feel absurd: to a small bully, should be so seriously treated?

Kai-Fu Lee once thought of Epitaph. The idea was: "The scientist, the entrepreneur, who has gone through a number of top tech companies, has turned complex technologies into products that everyone can benefit from." "Later turned into" enthusiastic educators, through writing, network, speech, he was in China's rise in the era of help many young students, they kindly call him ' teacher-fu '. ”

Now, he says, these will eventually drown in history. What is the value of a person's reputation, 100 years from now who will remember? "If I continue to do something positive, but I am smelly and the image is shattered, I will not hesitate to go on with it, which is a worthwhile exchange." "But he also said," I'm not a cross line person. "It is both controllable and uncontrollable."

For the former scientist, the unknown variable suddenly overweight, he was difficult to measure. It is certain that the line has changed, and he is going to explore where the new line is.
