As a mage, I just want to pursue the truth

Chapter 296 World Internet Conference

At the same time in Gusu, Li Miaomiao made a similar request to Zheng Li: "You must attend this Internet conference held in Wuzhen with me."

The World Internet Conference, also known as the Wuzhen Summit, is held once a year.

During the period, even if it was due to special reasons, it did not stop, but it was held in the form of remote video conference.

The previous Wuzhen Summits were all held in November. Starting from 2020, the Wuzhen Summit will be held in advance every year.

In recent years, the Wuzhen Summit has been held in August.

Zheng Li refused: "It would be nice if you represent me to participate."

Li Miaomiao said that she wanted Zheng Li to attend the Wuzhen Summit, but actually she wanted to go out alone with Zheng Li, even if it was just for attending the meeting.

Li Miaomiao took out her mobile phone and started playing an audio: "Okay, I will definitely participate next year."

Then he said: "This was the Wuzhen summit last year, I asked you to participate, and you said that you will definitely participate next year.

Last year's theme was Metaverse, in fact, we are the protagonists of this theme.

A few years ago, when the metaverse concept was the hottest, Internet conferences did not use this as the theme.

It is precisely because our futureverse has preliminarily realized people's expectations for the metaverse that we took the metaverse as the theme of last year.

Relevant leaders of Yanjing and Zhejiang Province told me countless times to invite you to participate, but I blocked it for you.

You told me last year that you will definitely participate this year, and I will also return to the organizer of the conference in the same way.

The meeting will be held soon, and Wuzhen has released the news that you are going to attend the meeting.

Google’s President Pichai, Microsoft’s Gates, FB’s Zuckerberg, and Iron Man Musk, who has recently become a mage, all said they would participate in this year’s Wuzhen Summit.

If you don't participate, I can't explain it. "

Speaking of this, Li Miaomiao was a little desperate.If Zheng Li didn't participate, she felt that she would offend others.

Others wouldn't think about Zheng Li, they would only think that she made up Zheng Li's meaning.

Li Miaomiao did not expect that the organizer of the Wuzhen Summit would release this news.

Last year, Li Miaomiao replied to Wuzhen that Zheng Li will attend the Wuzhen Summit next year, and this year's reply is very likely.

She didn't say it dead.

As a result, Wuzhen publicized that Zheng Li would personally participate in this World Internet Conference.

You must know that Zheng Li has not shown his face in public for so many years.

After the news of Zheng Li's participation came out, not only the founders of domestic Internet giants expressed their willingness to participate in this Wuzhen Summit, but even the founders of overseas Internet giants also expressed their willingness to participate.

Even Gates, who has been away from front-line management for many years, said that he would participate in this year's Wuzhen Summit.

Zheng Li looked at Li Miaomiao's embarrassment and said, "Okay, I'll attend, and arrange a few less meetings for me."

Li Miaomiao nodded quickly and said: "Don't worry, there are up to three games.

Two networking events and an opening ceremony.You just need to participate in these enough. "

The previous news that Zheng Li participated in this Wuzhen Summit was just a word that the organizers of the conference made when they invited the bigwigs.

After receiving the approval letter from Li Miaomiao, the organizer of the meeting released the news through official media channels.

"It is reported that the 2026 World Internet Conference will be held in Wuzhen at the end of August, and this World Internet Conference will be the one with the most celebrities over the years.

The heads of well-known domestic companies such as Kechuang Biology, Goose Factory, Ali, Huawei, and Rice participated, and the heads of foreign giants such as Apple, Tesla, Google, and META participated.”

After the news came out, there was a burst of excitement in the industry.

The participation of so many bigwigs means an opportunity. What if your project or company is favored by the bigwigs and takes off immediately?
It is still necessary to have a dream of being a man.

There is a lot of discussion on the Internet, and the Wuzhen Summit has not been this lively for several years.

About 20 years ago, basically every year, group photos of big boss dinners were circulated.

As for 2020, the 2020 World Internet Conference is known as: the quietest Internet conference in history.

It can be traced back to 14, when Zhu * Yunlai, Li Yanhong, Ding Lei, and Zhang Chaoyang gathered together after the Wuzhen Summit.

A year later, it was still the same group, mainly including Ma Huateng and Lei Jun.Afterwards, group photos of these people's meals were circulated basically every year.

Of course, Zhu Zhi participated in this kind of dinner for two times, but he didn't participate after 16 years because of his sensitive identity.

The most famous Wuzhen dinner party should be the Dongxing Club in 17.

The dinner hosted by Dongzi from JD.com and Wang Xing from Meituan invited a group of first-line leaders such as Ma Huateng, Zhang Yiming, Lei Jun, Shen Nanpeng, and Zhang Lei.

At that time, the group photos of the dinner were even posted by netizens with the school emblems of the graduate schools of the various leaders on their heads.

You must know that in addition to the Dongxing Club for the Wuzhen dinner in 17, Ding Lei from the pig factory at that time also organized a dinner. Dongzi and Wang Xing both invited so many bigwigs under the crash.

Judging from the group photo of Dongxinghui, Ma Huateng's sitting at the main seat is also a manifestation of the status of the domestic Internet industry.

This year, because of Zheng Li's participation, many founders or leaders of Internet giants at home and abroad have expressed their intention to participate, so the outside world is speculating whether there will be photos of the dinner this time.

In recent years, due to the increased regulatory pressure and changes in the public opinion environment, even if the bigwigs have dinners in recent years, the group photos of the dinners have not been circulated on the Internet.

I also don’t want to be scolded. Taking Mr. Ma as an example, he was photographed playing golf and sailing a yacht in Spain, and there were a lot of comments about him on Weibo.

The reputation is not what it used to be.

In the past, in order to be a human business, even if they were scolded a few times, the bosses hoped to gain some voice for their business.

Under the recent supervision, it is almost impossible to expand new business, let alone monopoly.

Internet companies are crowding into the business of the to b end, and the business of the to b end does not require much public opinion.

Therefore, the Wuzhen dinner party was also lonely.

The World Internet Conference usually lasts for three days, basically three days every year.

This year is no exception.

The first day is mainly the opening ceremony and seminars, and the second day is the plenary session of the Wuzhen Summit and the Entrepreneur Summit Forum.

Then on the second day, various sub-venues will hold some subdivided forums.

The third day was similar, ending with a press conference.

This year's theme is mainly the Industrial Internet.

The Metaverse has already talked about it last year.

Internet practitioners have a clear perception that the Industrial Internet has been mentioned for many years, and it has been mentioned since a long time ago.

Whether it is the work report at the government level or the strategic planning of the Internet giants, it will mention the industrial Internet, and put this in a very high position.

But in the past few years, there has been a feeling that the connection between the Internet and manufacturing has become closer and closer.

The speed of informatization and intelligent transformation of the manufacturing industry is accelerating.

"Let us invite Mr. Zheng Li, Chairman of Kechuang Biotech, to give an opening speech for this World Internet Conference."

Zheng Li originally thought that he was here to listen, at most to participate in some exchanges.

It turned out that there was still a speech, which he had never done before.

But it doesn't matter, the speech was written by Li Miaomiao, and the speech can be made by artificial intelligence.

Anyway, as long as I don't know what's going on, it's not me who's embarrassed.

"Hello everyone, I am Zheng Li, the chairman of Kechuang Biotech.

This is the first time I participated in such an occasion, I was a little nervous, and I rarely speak in front of so many people.

Everyone here will definitely think in their hearts, isn’t Kechuang Biotech a biomedical company?Come to the Internet conference to join in the fun.

We were originally a biomedical company, but in the past few years, with the launch of brain-computer connection to mobile phones and brain-computer connection VR, we have a little bit of the Internet.

Especially since the end of last year, Kechuangbiology has been deeply involved in the field of industrial Internet, and has created industrial VR with major Internet companies.

As a result, we are very close to the theme of this Internet Conference, so participating in it is not considered cross-border.

In the past 40 years, the Internet has set off a prairie fire all over the world.

To this day, none of us can exist without the Internet.

Like energy and food, the Internet has become a necessity for each of us.

But on the manufacturing side, the degree of integration of Internet technology and manufacturing is far less than the degree of integration of individual life and the Internet.

I am a person who likes to think very much. After the topic told me today, I have a few simple thoughts and understandings about it.

Today I am here to discuss with you:
In the next ten years, we can witness the accelerated development of the Industrial Internet, not only the Industrial Internet, but also the Agricultural Internet.

Internet technology will empower and transform these traditional manufacturing industries.

Everyone knows that I don't interfere much with the company's specific business, and I leave all the daily tasks to our general manager.

But I will read the reports, and I really like to read the reports written by the middle-level employees and executives below.

Since the end of last year, we have established joint ventures around industrial VR with mainstream domestic Internet companies, such as Goose Factory, Rice, Huawei, Ali, etc.

The employees of these joint ventures have the need to go deep into the front line of the manufacturing industry to investigate companies.

One of my deep feelings is, do manufacturing enterprises really need to be informatized and intelligent?Do they really need the Industrial Internet to empower them?

All of you here are engaged in the Internet industry and do not have a deep understanding of traditional manufacturing.

Let's put it this way, the profit of the manufacturing industry is very meager, so meager that the profit rate of 100% is considered high, that is to say, an entrepreneur with a revenue of [-] million can earn [-], which is considered too much.

Most small and medium-sized manufacturing industries maintain profit margins between one point and three.

Where does the money come from for the Industrial Internet?This is the first question, where does the money come from?
Another question is can the Industrial Internet really benefit them?Can it really increase production capacity and reduce costs?
Can this intermediate advantage cover the cost of the Industrial Internet?
If these two problems are not resolved, the industrial Internet transformation of small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises will be out of the question.

After the employees of Kechuang Biotech went to the widely distributed manufacturing enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta to investigate, I read the research report and thought that these two problems would take time to digest.

To give a very simple example, for example, a traditional manufacturing industry hires a worker, which costs 4000 yuan to solve mechanized production problems.

However, if this problem needs to be solved through informatization, the cost may cost millions.

This cost is enough for a company to hire a worker for 20 years.

I think that in order to solve this problem, artificial intelligence is needed. Artificial intelligence can reduce the employment cost of programmers and improve the efficiency of programmers.

Indirectly reduces the cost of manufacturing transformation, so that more small and medium-sized manufacturing industries are willing to join in.

In addition, there is a need for a model project, the smart steel production base jointly built by us, Huawei and Baosteel.

The production capacity has been increased by three times, and the accident rate has been reduced to no safety accidents in half a year. A steel plant with an annual production capacity of 200 million tons has less than 20 employees.

After having such a model project, we are discussing cooperation with many other steel groups in the follow-up.

For large-scale manufacturing industries, they have the willingness and strength to promote the transformation of the industrial Internet.It is necessary for us to promote some good results to small and medium-sized similar manufacturing enterprises.

For example, self-driving trucks became popular two years ago, and now more than 90.00% of truck drivers in major logistics companies use artificial intelligence.

The technology of unmanned trucks later spilled over to areas such as coal mining and internal transportation in steel mills. This is the spillover of technology.

An excellent industrial Internet project must involve a lot of technologies, some of which can be extracted and used in other highly relevant fields.

The popular SaaS service superimposed customized development a few years ago is a similar logic.

The prospect of the agricultural Internet is also broad, but since we have not been deeply involved, I will not go into details here.

This is an era of great change, and the arrival of magic has accelerated the process of change.

The endless emergence of new technologies has caused every entrepreneur to face new changes and new challenges.

Facing the era of great changes, the advancement of the Industrial Internet is bound to be a complicated process.

We need to embrace technology, but we also need to be cautious about whether technology can truly empower manufacturing, and how to make the integration of the Internet and manufacturing less difficult.

This is the challenge that all of you here today will face. "

After Zheng Li finished speaking, there was thunderous applause at the scene.

As for whether it is to give Zheng Li and Kechuang Biology face, or whether Zheng Li is really good, it will be a question mark.

"There are many others, Zheng Li has a deep understanding of the industry.

I didn't follow the above meaning to blow the industrial Internet brainlessly, but I still told the truth. "

"At Zheng Li's position, he no longer needs to give face to most people.

And what he said was very sincere, and he didn't step on the red line, so why can't he say it?

The Industrial Internet is something that only large manufacturing companies can play.

If small and medium-sized enterprises forcefully promote informatization and intelligence, are they looking for death?
Maybe your production capacity has increased by [-]%, and this [-]% production capacity profit is less than [-]% of the cost of informatization transformation. "
