Professor Wei shook hands with him and introduced with a smile: "Mr. Shen, this is one of my students. Jing Gao. He wants to ask you some questions about network governance."

Professor Wei's title of "student" moved Jing Gao very much.But restraining the emotional fluctuations in his heart, he shook hands with Professor Shen, "Mr. Shen, hello.

After sitting down and chatting for a while, Professor Wei took his leave first.He is busy.

There have been comments saying that it is a 'shithole' and needs to be uninstalled. From my personal point of view, I am very uncomfortable. certain remarks.

However, I think meagerness is counter to the general trend.If we do not change direction, we are doomed to decline in the future.I want to change it.So I want to hear Mr. Shen's opinion. "

By January 2017, the meager report on the rise and fall had long been on Jing Gao's desk. The success of Twitter in the United States in 1 made domestic entrepreneurs see new Internet outlets and start businesses one after another.

This year, it was the "Fanfou" founded by Wang Xing, the founder of Meituan, that took the lead this year.The number of users is the first to break through one million.Then Fanfou was closed.Sina Meager took over the users who had no meal.Stand out among Netease Weibo, Tencent Weibo, and Sohu Weibo.

This is the case in the Internet field.As long as you don't make big mistakes yourself, "first mover" is a very big advantage.

But Meager then had problems.After the listing, the number of user growth declined.The reason is first, the emergence of WeChat has taken away a large number of active users.Second, internal apps fail to attract users.

In the second half of 2014, Weibo began to reflect and make changes.That is sinking.Make efforts in three aspects: content, users and structure.Many people will find that the information release of many movies is the first choice for meager.

Currently, Weibo is in the stage of rejuvenation.Its share price is on the rise.Approaching the highest point after listing.

Professor Shen was very quick thinking, and asked: "The general trend you mentioned. What general trend?"

Jing Gao said calmly: "The general trend of history is overwhelming. Those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish. According to the textbook: the wheel of history is rolling forward. The general trend of our current era is the rise of China. revival.

And some accounts on Weibo continue to output negative energy, treating ordinary people as fools.Over time, it will inevitably be abandoned by users.

Of course, neoliberalism is sweeping the world, and as we open the door, the current Chinese society is very diverse.Awareness and interests are diverse.It's hard to agree on one thing.

The appearance of it, the debate on social media.Meager is precisely a public platform that can provide such debates.Neither WeChat nor Douyin can do this for the time being.So meager is very popular now.

However, if it is meager and does not change, its market share will definitely decline slowly, and it will not be able to compete with Twitter and Facebook. "

Professor Shen listened carefully, nodding occasionally, it was obvious that Mr. Jing was not an idiot, and had something of his own.Its field of concern is not business, but the field of political economy.After pondering for a moment, he said: "

I roughly understand your question.I also have an account on Weibo.Chat with people often.Business operations and models are not my research direction, so I will not comment on them.With regard to cyberspace governance, I can make three points.

The first point is that there is no "neutrality" in an absolute sense on social platforms, and their positions are bound to be biased.As for where you want to go, or where you are now, you can make a choice.You are right.

From my personal point of view, the suggestions I give are of course: the management of social platforms, or governance, should be beneficial to China's national interests, act as a fuel for China's rise, and help build a certain social consensus. Promoting operations for this purpose will inevitably lead to, or explore, a suitable and commercial path.

The second point is that the governance of cyberspace still needs to be governed by laws.In this sense, online platforms should cooperate with the government's governance, rather than acting on their own, screening information based on the preferences and values ​​of business owners, and manipulating users. Instead, they will become a force that endangers cyberspace governance.

The third point is that you mentioned Twitter and Facebook, which are actually very simple. The answers you need lie in these two companies.Masters are teachers.Of course, the user's information security, you have to pay attention not to misuse or leak.

The practice of Brexit in 2106 last year, some media broke the news that it was a data company called 'Cambridge Analytica', which targeted advertisements by analyzing users' habits and preferences.This led to Brexit.

The relevant domestic laws are not perfect enough.Collection of user data is not prohibited.It can even be said to be semi-public in the Internet world.But I still need to remind you. "

What a long sentence!

Jing Gao discovered Professor Shen's language habits.Particular preference for long sentences, which require concentration to understand.Put away my notebook, get up and say goodbye: "Mr. Shen, thank you for your answers and opinions. I don't know if I can ask similar questions again. Oh, this is my business card."

"Okay." Professor Shen took a sip of water, added WeChat with Jing Gao, exchanged business cards, and said, "This year Wuzhen Internet Conference invited me to be the secretary-general assistant of the High-Level Expert Advisory Committee. Were you there at that time?"

Jing Gao said: "Yes." He was fighting Ali at the time.During the Internet conference, I also chatted with Ma Yun once, completely tearing my face apart.

Coming out of Professor Shen's office, it was around 11:[-] in the morning. While waiting for the elevator at the stairs, Jing Gao flipped through his notebook and had a rough idea.

Regarding meagerness, in terms of management, you can just learn from Twitter and Facebook.Being meager is under his banner, the buttocks must not be crooked.In terms of social governance, it is necessary to communicate more with the higher authorities.

As for the general principle, Professor Shen has already explained it very clearly.This kind of think tank-level professor basically follows the general direction of what he talks about.

At this moment, Jing Gao's cell phone rang, and it was Wang Hanjun calling, with a clear and sweet voice, "Brother Jing, are you still in our school? Xi Xi said that she wanted to join the Phoenix Fund as an intern like Zhang Li."
