The time has come for the era of the Internet

This period of time has been in the past 20 years of the Internet in China, think of Charles Zhang, Ding Lei, MA, Li These people were high-spirited, and then think of this 20, the vast majority of successful enterprise leaders still are the original people, can not help to make me a lot of feelings.

Often see some young people in the Internet industry, complaining about the pace of the promotion of the major companies are very slow, feel that their way on the road encountered these obstacles, are due to the lack of mobility of enterprises, management of the curing caused by. I think that a generation of young people's desire for success is becoming more and more impatient, is a reality, but the first successful people of the internet for nearly 20 years, still those old faces active on the stage, is also very unscientific.

Let's take a look at the age of these people, Ding Lei: 43 years old, MA: 43 years old, Jack Yun: 50 years old, Charles Zhang: 50 years old, Li: 46 years old, Guoqing: 50 years old, Chen: 41 years old, Shenglong: 42 years old. The 8 companies represented by these 8 individuals are very representative from large to small, are founded in 2003, and are the founders of these 8 people, the other thing in common is that their 8 people from the beginning of the first line, until now there is no return to the intention of retreat. In addition, their age is just 365 years old, with an average age of 45.6 years.

The age of 45 years, in the traditional enterprise is the prime of the fruit of the time, or the Mesozoic, the mainstay of society-but in the Internet companies here, this age is somewhat large. There is no denying that some people are wise and brilliant for most of their lives, but the most important is that people always make mistakes, especially when they are middle-aged and old. In the Internet, the pursuit of innovation in the industry, these have been powerful, experienced brilliant bosses, whether it is also suitable for the needs of the development of the situation is really an unknown.

Even if people can eliminate their own rarely make mistakes, it does not mean that they can do the right, at most is good, the distance is far from correct. It's unrealistic to let a bunch of old guys understand how Internet thinking is going. People have path-dependent, will be obsessed with the success of the past, forming their own unique logic, which sometimes become a burden.

Moreover, the above 8 people behind the company, some although still brilliant, more is in the downhill. Is it a human being or a mechanism? or is the industrial environment of China's internet not good? These are not the reason, the real reason is, these bosses may have been very fine, but the future is not necessarily the line. Because the world has changed, has unconsciously changed its appearance. For young people, they are born to know the world, and for those sophisticated bosses, it is easy to mistake the present world as the past has given them the glory of the world.

For the founders, the person's fate is only personal, and for the company, that's a matter of survival and death. The future is so illusory, such as thick mist in the forest black bear general loomed, but once you see clearly, everything is already late. The only young people who can see all this and make a decisive adjustment in advance are that they do not have any hope for the elderly. 4 years later, the average age of these people will enter the 50-year-old, a group of decrepit-led internet, can you imagine? This generation of internet people, it's time for a curtain call.
