The audience in front of the TV held their breath and waited for Fang Zhe's answer.
Many of Fang Zhe's diehard fans and supporters even bite their teeth and curse such conspiracy theorists. They manipulate one another all day, as if a group of keyboard men had seen through the world.
Fang zhe smiled softly and said, "in fact, you may not know that in western countries, every once in a while, and even every day, the media fabricated that we have the support of the Chinese government behind Huizhong, saying that the Chinese government monitors and eavesdrops on the public privacy and core secrets of western countries through wechat.
So we think, which side should we believe? "
Fang Zhe's light answer made the audience in front of the TV smile.
Yes, China's conspiracy theory says that Huizhong is controlled by western countries. The conspiracy theory of western countries says that Huizhong is controlled by the Chinese government. Anyway, no matter where you are, there are always people who can't see you. There are always people who doubt you and slander you.
Host Chen Weihong also smiled softly. He asked this question on such an occasion to give Fang zhe a chance to clarify these rumors. Therefore, he further asked:
"So, as the creator of wechat, what do you think is the reason why wechat can enter Europe, America and other developed countries and develop locally?"
After thinking, Fang answered two words: "weak!"
"Weak?" Chen Weihong and the audience in front of the TV were puzzled. Is wechat still weak with 1 billion users around the world?
Before Chen Weihong asked, Fang zhe explained: "yes, wechat has been distributed globally since its birth. At that time, it was still very weak and could not arouse the attention and concern of regulatory authorities in various countries.
When it grew slowly later, it also grew slowly in the local area. Both the people and the regulatory authorities were familiar with and trusted it enough. In this process, wechat gradually integrated into the local market and took root in the local area. "
"It's that simple?" Chen Weihong asked his doubts for many viewers in front of the TV.
Fang zhe nodded: "yes, it's that simple. If wechat first grew up in China and then entered the developed countries in Europe and America, there were all kinds of competitive software abroad at that time. The governments of these countries may have recognized the importance of wechat in the field of mobile communication and set various restrictions to prevent wechat from entering.
However, if wechat treats the global market equally at the beginning, it is equivalent to sowing a pile of seeds all over the world, which will take root in various places and deeply root into the local market. "
Chen Weihong shook his head and said, "I still don't quite understand what you mean."
Fang zhe said metaphorically, "if a mature industry is regarded as a fruit, then everyone doesn't want their fruit to be picked by others.
However, if the industry is still in its infancy and no one is aware of its importance, then you can plant a seed in the industry, slowly cultivate it and grow up, and the resistance will be much less.
For example, the three bat companies in China have received a large share of foreign venture capital in the early years. If everyone could realize their importance at the beginning, I'm afraid they would not be easily allowed to invest in them by foreign venture capital. In fact, without these venture capital at the beginning, these enterprises might not live today.
So it's the same to enter the European and American markets, that is, you have taken root there before the local competitors and regulators react and realize its importance. "
The audience didn't understand Fang Zhe's explanation, but it didn't prevent Chen Weihong from asking questions. This was originally an interview program, so there was no need to dig into the bottom.
"OK, the next question I want to ask is about Huizhong listing.
We all know that according to the agreement signed by Huizhong during its previous financing, Huizhong will be listed at the end of this year at the latest. I wonder if you can tell us something about the listing and whether you and Huizhong will have some new plans after the listing. "
Chen Weihong has raised another issue that the whole domestic Internet industry has paid much attention to since this year. In particular, the number of wechat global users exceeded 1 billion this time, and the domestic media talked about the news of Huizhong listing.
"Well, it seems that everyone is really paying special attention to the news of our Huizhong listing, so I'll simply disclose a little." Fang zhe stood up and responded to the news of Huizhong listing in public for the first time.
"Now we have started to set up a listing advisory team within Huizhong. The listing location will choose NASDAQ or NYSE."
Fang Zhe's answer can be regarded as a final conclusion to the rumors of the outside world. Before that, there was another listing place with the greatest voice in domestic public opinion, that is, the Hong Kong stock exchange.
However, according to Fang Zhe's explanation, "HKEx's global influence and financial strength are still limited. Only NASDAQ and NYSE can accommodate Huizhong."
"So, we haven't determined whether it is NASDAQ or NYSE?" Chen Weihong asked.
Fang zhe shook his head. Although he prefers NASDAQ in his heart, the specific location can only be confirmed after consulting the consulting team and communicating with the two exchanges.
As for the post listing plan asked by Chen Weihong, Fang zhe didn't say clearly. These questions are still a little far away from now. It also involves the future strategic layout of Huizhong. It's understandable that he didn't answer.
As the time drew to a close, Chen Weihong asked a customary question about interviewing leaders every time: "finally, do you have any suggestions or words you want to say to today's young people and entrepreneurs?"
Fang Zhe's answer is very simple: "keep learning and stick to your dreams."
After the interview, the audience in front of the national TV have some aftertaste and reluctance. They hope that the interview time can be longer. Even if they don't know more about Fang Zhe and Huizhong, it's good to just look at Fang Zhe's handsome face.
At the same time, on the microblog, keywords such as "Fang Zhe is so handsome, national husband, more money is not a good thing. I am not interested in money. I pretend to force the prince, Fang Zhe is a puppet, and Huizhong is listed" also dominate the hot search one after another.
What's more, Fang Zhe's microblog account rose rapidly after the dialogue program was broadcast. Just one hour after the dialogue was broadcast, Fang Zhe's fans rose by more than 2 million, and most of them were female fans.
Under Fang Zhe's latest microblogs, there are comments like "Fang Zhe, I like you!" "Fang Zhe, you are so handsome!" "Fang Zhe, you are the national husband!" "husband, I love you" and "Fang Zhe, I want to be your girlfriend".
At this moment, Fang Zhe, who also just finished the dialogue program at home, looked at the news of continuous bombing on his wechat, microblog and other social software. He logged in to the microblog and sent a picture of him eating instant noodles with Feng Xue. First, he wanted to say that he had a girlfriend and second, he was also an ordinary person. He ate instant noodles like everyone else.
Unfortunately, after this microblog was sent out, Fang zhe found that the painting style of the comment was completely different from his own imagination.
"With the people you like, instant noodles can be delicious!"
"Husband, I want to soak you all my life!"
"I really want to eat a bowl of instant noodles made by my husband!"
"Husband, I know you have talent and beauty with your sister-in-law, but I'm willing to be small!"
"Sister, please say hello to my sister. From now on, I am willing to serve my sister until I die!"
...
In mid March, when peers in the global Internet industry gradually shifted their attention from the news that wechat broke 1 billion and Huizhong, Huizhong's layout in the pan entertainment field fell into the animation field again.
