Chapter 137: Episode 137: Got to Attend the Internet Conference as Wished
51buy successfully entered its third year, and whether in terms of staff expansion or revenue, it had already completely surpassed the previous year. Zhou Xueyin was also invited to attend the sixth Internet Conference.
The theme of this Internet Conference was: Harmonious Network, Quality Service.
The development of 51buy over the past three years fit this theme very well, and after reviewing the agenda of the conference, Zhou felt that it might be helpful to the company’s development to attend.
The venue was the China Grand Hotel, and the conference would last for three days. The attending companies were all giants in the internet industry.
People like Li KF, Zhang CY, Ding L, Li YH, and other well-known internet figures were all seated in the conference room. Of course, Ma HT, who had given a lecture at Zhou Xueyin’s university in the past, was also among them.
"Jixiang, Jixiang! It’s truly eye-opening to see so many internet tycoons today, what an incredible fortune!" Zhou Xueyin said excitedly with stars in her eyes as she grabbed Li Jixiang’s hand.
"Calm down, Yinyin, calm down! We’re here on a mission today, to understand the future trends of the internet!" Li Jixiang remained especially calm.
The conference officially began, but Zhou Xueyin found the speeches by the guests on stage extremely dull.
It was nothing more than empty clichés, mutual flattery, utterly meaningless, and even seemed like a waste of time.
However, one statement caught her attention: The future will be the era of mobile internet.
Although mobile internet was not yet widespread due to data limitations, services like QQ chat were already starting to replace text messaging. What used to only be possible through MMS, like sending photos, could now be done with mobile communication apps.
