Mobile phone will become the new core carrier of internet

In the 1998, a poor college student Wangxi, who had no money and no background, came to Shenzhen alone. He remembers that at that time, the first wave of internet in China began in Shenzhen, the Chinese network, the U.S. business network, 39 health nets, deep door households ... I think, "Everyone is in happy enclosure, the internet has not much space." "1999, he spent more than 4,000 yuan to buy the first mobile phone in his life, immediately produced a strange thinking," since the computer can surf the Internet, why can't mobile phone?

In fact, people did not have the concept of mobile Internet, the Internet or desktop computer things. However, he had a dream, "the spirit of the Internet is free and open." Young people like the spirit, so I want to connect the Internet to the mobile phone. "As a result, he found a precise entry point ——— GSM.

Before and after 2000, GSM replaced the first generation of analog mobile technology, 2G that GPRS data network began to become popular, there have been many black-and-white screen but can access the mobile phone. At this point, he joined a telecom operator's content project, and set up his own company, "the mobile phone business model is incompatible with the spirit of the Internet, so I chose to leave." ”

In 2005, he sold the company to the largest mobile content service provider index in Japan for 80 million dollars. Subsequently, he used the funds to set up the domestic first furniture real meaning mobile Internet enterprises ——— appropriate search. A few years, should search fast growth, according to the data provided by Third-party agencies, the appropriate search for the market share of 50% or so, even in the face of Google, Baidu and other rivals, the market ranked in the top three. He said: "In this field, we have not seen which company is doing the same content as us." ”

Wangxi that, now is the era of information explosion, the network of many, how we do not need to rely on memory, very fool-like to make their own and knowledge seamless link up? The answer is search. "So in the internet age, we can see the rapid rise of Google, Baidu." Similarly, mobile search will benefit from the trend of mobile internet. ”

Appropriate search was first established, mobile phone access is a very new thing, we are most familiar with probably only China Mobile (micro bo) Dream Network, can be called the number of Web sites only a few dozens of, not to mention search. "Everyone thinks I'm a jerk, ' mobile phones are used to call ', ' so little screen on what web? '" In a cynical Wangxi insists on his own idea, "I think the mobile phone can certainly become the new core carrier of the Internet." ”

Wangxi's guess is right. In the second quarter of this year, domestic mobile internet users have topped 400 million and are expected to overtake the Internet by 2012. At the same time, according to the Chinese Internet Center statistics, more than 60% of domestic mobile internet users will use mobile search. Search the number of pages loaded up to 10 billion of the level, the number of users up to 200 million.

"There is a difference between reality and anticipation." At that time, we estimated that the number of times to reach this level is 5 years, the result is 6 years. Still, the overall picture is more optimistic. "Because the mobile internet will not only keep pace with the internet in the future, but will also replace the Internet as the mainstream, the PC or notebook will be relegated to the second line, mobile phones will become the first tool to obtain information." Wangxi said. ”

New interview

The next 10 years of the IT and information industry belong to the mobile internet

Southern Metropolis Daily: Not long ago, it is advisable to search for the soft silver China, UMC Hong Ding Chuang, Ventech and other well-known VC investment in the 50 million U.S. dollars. Is the investor's view of the mobile Internet expected to be consistent with yours? Do they have a certain expectation of profitability?

Wangxi: I think the global industry view is unanimous. This is what I look forward to for 12, thanks to Jobs, whose iphone and ipad have promoted Western understanding of the mobile internet and spread it from the west to the world. It can be said that the next 10 years of it and information industry belong to the mobile internet.

Nancy: What frustrations have you encountered in educating people to accept mobile internet?

Wangxi: Ma Yun (micro-Bo) said to the company that the Internet can do business, we all think he is crazy. Now we also, you say mobile internet has commercial value? The first feeling you are a liar. I can only say this to the enterprise, Ma Yun did the business-to-business, is the offline information moved to the line to establish a bridge between merchants and customers. Since the Internet can do this task, why mobile internet can not do?

South: After Google withdrew from the Chinese market, Baidu and Tencent marched aggressively into the mobile internet, how are you going to deal with their impact?

Wangxi: They come in is a good thing, can bring internet users, use the mobile Internet, together to make the market bigger. In fact, the mobile Internet is still in the cultivation stage, the whole industry only developed a very small piece, we have not seen how big the cake, talking about how big a piece?

We are very welcome to the market competition. As mentioned earlier, only our family is advocating mobile internet, people do not believe it. If everyone comes in, it's easier for users to accept this idea together. If now the whole market scale is 10 billion yuan, we come in and do 100 billion yuan together, if the appropriate search share can still occupy 40%-50%, then our size also increased by 10 times times.

South: Shenzhen has a very good environment for the development of mobile Internet, especially in the mobile phone industry chain, why the mobile Internet has not been developed, is now left behind by Beijing. As far as I know, the research and Development Center is also located in Beijing, what is the lack of Shenzhen?

Wangxi: Three or four years ago, Shenzhen was in the leading position in the field of mobile Internet. But why is it behind? I think it's the change brought about by the rise of smartphones. 2G, the function of mobile phone era, spelling is the price, and smart phones to fight the technology and services. The electronics industry extremely developed Shenzhen in the price lead is inevitable, over the years has formed a kind of inertia, lets our internet, the handset enterprise cannot in the time turning point into the technology and the service.

However, Beijing on the mobile Internet is its natural first-mover advantage of the ——— humanities, this is the short plate in Shenzhen, temporarily overcome. First of all, the Internet, mobile Internet is a cultural concept, a way of communication, more dependent on the human precipitation and based on the "creative ability." Sometimes, the ideal is fantasy, fantasy is to create a dream, create the future shape, and then develop in this direction. The Shenzhen people are too real to be daydreaming. Shenzhen People's creativity is limited in the manufacturing industry, see the touch of something is Shenzhen's strength, but in some with technology and cultural characteristics of the industry, Shenzhen has no advantage.

If everyone is very solid, there will be no jobs in the world, we need a fantasy space, a can "dirty" soil.

Nan du: However, Shenzhen's capital market is still very active, especially in the encouragement of entrepreneurship, innovation, many companies have been VCs or the government's guidance funds, do you think they can get such attention in Beijing? Isn't that the advantage of Shenzhen?

Wangxi: The latest wave of E-commerce, video web site, 2010, 34 of successful internet companies IPO, including Shenzhen Enterprises? Even the scale of venture capital financing is small by comparison. Beijing East valuation has reached 30 billion yuan, each financing is billions of, Shenzhen e-commerce tens of millions of dollars feel good. For emerging industries, Shenzhen's biggest advantage is that the environment is good, the government's strong sense of service.
