Rebirth of the Internet Overlord

The big killer in the mobile Internet era!

Isn’t the iPhone Zero, the representative smartphone, not considered?

Hearing what Ning Zimo said, Peter Thiel was full of doubts, but more importantly, he was full of curiosity.

In the past, when he was at PayPal, Ning Zimo saved PayPal from danger several times under eBay's pressure. Each time, it was his new plans. Now after gradually hearing about the "Ant Forest" plan, Peter felt that Ning Zimo

Forcibly raising a zz donation plan to a sufficient height.

Such a large, long-term, interlocking environmental protection plan can not only allow the iPhone to neutralize Apple’s ZZ offensive.

He can even make his iPhone Zero not retreat but advance to plot more during this wave of offensive!

Early in the morning on July 4th, Ma Yun came to the company 10 minutes earlier than usual, but she didn't want to run into Cai Chongxin at the door of the company.

Still a few steps away from him, Ma Yun raised the phone in her hand and said, "Zimo called me yesterday."

"Is Ant Forest going to be officially launched?" Cai Chongxin raised his eyebrows, "Is it too early?"

Ma Yun shook her head, "Not early, not early... This is our main opportunity to dominate the payment market. In addition, Ant Forest is online at this time, which is also when Emperor Penguins need it."

Ma Yun knew that the reason why her partner Cai Chongxin said that Ant Forest was launched too early was because the mobile Internet era that Ning Zimo once told them had not yet officially arrived. But Ma Yun also knew that the early launch of Ant Forest was the general trend.

In recent years, the domestic Internet market has undergone successive changes.

First, Tencent took out its Paipai.com and launched a payment product like Tenpay.

Then there is Baidu, which started out as a search company, and it is actually planning to build a Lekutian e-commerce platform in the near future.

And JD.com, which has previously embedded Alipay payment, is also ready to make its own payment.

Although every potential competitor is not strong, Alipay has developed considerable user stickiness in the past few years and is not afraid of their competition.

But these companies are all targeting the payment part and rushing towards Alibaba. This momentum is not very good.

Besides, Ning Zi Mo Na made another big flag around the Ant Forest yesterday!

"Zimo is in the United States now, and he is planning to promote Ant Forest to the international market this time," Ma Yun said with a sigh, "There will definitely be some big noise when he opens the curtain. We have to take advantage of the situation and seize the opportunity.

Give Alipay a boost.”

Cai Chongxin saw the uncontrollable fighting spirit in Ma Yun's eyes, and suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Why do I always feel that there are some other motives behind his early launch of Ant Forest?"

"Maybe it's the impression he has given you as an old fox." Ma Yun laughed.

Immediately, he added, "Look, starting from 9 o'clock this morning, he will release a promotional video for 'Ant Forest' on YouTube, Weibo, Twitter, and Facebook. Just wait until that time and see what he does.

What exactly did you do this time?"

"Hey, you are an old fox and you are poking fun at me again. What you said is too inconsistent." Cai Chongxin laughed.

"His behavior has always been inconsistent with what I can do?" Ma Yun said helplessly, "A big boss with a net worth of tens of billions of dollars actually dragged us to deserts like Minqin and Alxa. What do you think?

Look, how can anyone experience life like this?"

Seeing Ma Yun's hands spread out like a fool, Cai Chongxin could only smile helplessly.

They were not experiencing life that time, they were going to investigate a project.

Just give this boss Ma a crutch, and it becomes out of tune.

Probably, I got along with that person more.

No matter how serious a person is,

I also learned his skills.

But the skin is still there. I went on a trip with him in 2007, and the people who went with him were very impressed and gained a lot.

"I don't know what kind of impact it will have on everyone after the documentary of the lap he took us on last year is released?" Cai Chongxin murmured.

Ma Yun didn't speak when she heard this, she just kept walking forward with her head down.

Anyway, it’s still more than an hour until 9 o’clock, so we’ll know then.

…

At 8:55 in the morning, Ye Chenxi stepped through the door of his company. The girl at the front desk gave him a few copies of the day's newspapers after nodding as usual.

After entering the general manager's office with the newspaper, Ye Chenxi had just sat down when the girl at the front desk brought him a cup of coffee.

Ye Chenxi nodded his thanks and took a sip, but his eyes kept scanning today's newspaper. The newspaper seemed to be like usual, except for the preparations for the Beijing Olympics, there was no other important information.

Just when he was about to give up the newspaper, the phone next to him suddenly rang.

Ye Chenxi looked around and saw that it was his wife Xia Qingyu calling. Looking at the clock on the wall curiously, Ye Chenxi realized that it was only 9:01.

If you call me at this time, what will happen?

In doubt, Ye Chenxi still answered the phone.

"Hey, wife..."

"Honey! Look at Weibo, the Emperor Penguin Master has posted new content."

"Emmmm," Ye Chenxi rolled his eyes and said, "Daughter-in-law, you didn't forget to pay attention to my love rival even when you were on a business trip in the United States."

Ye Chenxi is sometimes annoyed by the guy named Ning Zimo, although his WeGame platform does give his gaming company more opportunities to make money. But his wife Xia Qingyu has always been Ning Zimo since she met him.

A fan of him, she has been following him on Weibo for more than a year since their marriage.

Although he was an unattainable person, he still felt a little bit sad.

After all, no matter how generous a man is, he doesn't want his wife to always miss other men.

This damn emperor penguin master,

It's really hateful.

"Ah, hubby, why are you so jealous? I'm not yours~~"

The charming voice on the other end of the phone made Ye Chenxi's heart soften, but before the heat in his chest could boil, he heard his wife's surprise on the other end:

"Oh, the boss is on the scene this time!"

Appearance?

Is it a video?

According to that person's style,

Why did he, who has always kept a low profile, show his face?

Ye Chenxi walked to his desk curiously, and when he turned on the computer, he heard his wife Xia Qingyu's cheering voice coming from the phone.

He could only say, "Okay, okay, I'll turn on the computer and we'll chat after we finish reading."

After hanging up the phone, Ye Chenxi opened Weibo helplessly. In the list of friends pinned by his wife, the first one is his wife Xia Qingyu, and the second one is the "Emperor Penguin Master" who is followed by his wife.

.

Although he was helpless, Ye Chenxi still clicked on his Weibo.

As expected, the first piece of the latest message from "The King of Emperor Penguins" was a video of him wearing his usual skin.

"Pippi Shrimp, let's go!"

Ye Chenxi didn't even need to look down to know that even though it wasn't long after this message was sent out, the comment area must have been full of repeaters.

"Pippi Shrimp, let's go!"

The Internet is like this, full of repeaters everywhere. Ye Chenxi tried his best not to be affected by the nearly 10,000 identical comments in just a few minutes, and directly opened the video.

The company's Internet speed is good, and the video was loaded quickly.

The screen was dark, but the sound of footsteps could be heard.

The dark scene seemed to be a passage. When the footsteps stopped at the vaguely visible door, a hand slowly appeared and pushed open the door in the screen.

There were many people sitting in the room, and everyone looked over when the door was pushed open.

The camera flashed by, but Ye Chenxi saw familiar faces such as Ma Yun and Lei Jun from the crowd at a glance.

"Pippi Shrimp, let's go!"

puff……

Ye Chenxi felt like she almost spit out her coffee with laughter.

This king of emperor penguins is so naughty that he even used funny phrases from the internet in front of such big bosses!

He hurriedly grabbed two tissues. When Ye Chenxi finished wiping his mouth and looked at the screen, a sign was displayed on the screen.

Minqin County.

Minqin County?

Ye Chenxi vaguely remembered that this seemed to be a county under Wuwei City, Gansu Province. Last year when he and Qingyu got married and traveled to Mogao Grottoes, they were lucky enough to stay there for one night. The place was surrounded by desert on three sides.

What is the emperor penguin master planning to do?

Out of curiosity, the scene changed. This time, Ma Yun, Lei Jun and other big bosses all appeared in the camera, and the one walking between them should be the Emperor Penguin boss from the sound of his voice.

He really showed up, but most of his head was covered by goggles and a hood, making it impossible to distinguish his face. And they couldn't tell what kind of figure he looked like because of their black blouses.

It is vaguely obvious that he is quite tall among these people.

But no matter how tall he is, when the camera zooms out, the group of them is much smaller than the endless yellow on the screen.

"Brother Xue, please introduce to us the desert management work here in Minqin."

"Hey, okay."

A man with a dark face and an old face stood still, pointed at the desert in the distance and said, "Minqin County is surrounded by the third largest desert and the fourth largest desert in China. There are deserts on the east, west, north and west, and the only green exit is

In the Shiyang River oasis area in the south of the county.

To be precise, the Badain Jaran Desert, the third largest desert in China, and the Tengger Desert, the fourth largest desert, are both components of the Alxa Desert, the fourth largest desert in the world. The main part is in western Inner Mongolia, with a small

Partly in central and northern Gansu..."

When "Brother Xue" was introducing, the camera on the screen turned and four drones flew from the ground to the four directions where the crowds were gathering.

The shot is divided into four, evolving into a scene captured by four drones.

It was a scene full of yellow sand, although the video producer played it at a very fast speed.

But except for the occasional appearance of small black sandbags, green is almost extinct in this desert.

desert,

die,

open,

Depressed.

The 30-second shot gave Ye Chenxi a silent shock.

Finally, the drone's lens was all shaking.

The ground seems to be getting closer,

Eventually, the lens stuck into the gravel.

Ye Chenxi felt his heart skip a beat as the drone fell, and some kind of inner tremor forced him to become serious.

Ye Chenxi knew that the drone ran out of power and fell into the sea of ​​sand.

But before that, the yellow that came from the camera when it was split into four parts was engraved in his heart.

At this time, the slightly old and hoarse voice came out again.

“May 5, 1993, is the day that is etched deepest in the memory of Minqin people. On that day, the black storm came, which was the most serious sandstorm disaster in the 54 years since the founding of the People’s Republic of China. I couldn’t see anything, couldn’t hear anything, and couldn’t stand even when I was standing.

Dare to move.

Within ten seconds, most of the window glass in the county town was shattered by wind, sand and rocks. With a crackling sound, Minqin fell from day to night, and the entire city entered a "ghost town" state. Only sporadic flashlights were still shining.

It is the light of escape..."

The hoarse voice was full of exhaustion, but also revealed a hint of helplessness, "Since this incident, the war between man and sand has intensified in Minqin. But in fact, as early as 59 years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Minqin's sand control

The comprehensive experimental station was officially established under the announcement of Mr. Zhu Kezhen, opening the first page in the history of desertification control science and technology in New China.

The experimental station is just a few simple tents, deep in the sand well. Several expedition teams set out from here, and on two 25-kilometer-long lines on the western edge of the Tengger Desert, 187 positioning points were used to detect the structure of the wind and sand flow.

Wind erosion and sand accumulation are observed year-round...

In just four or five years, scientific researchers have basically figured out the basic laws of wind-sand flow movement, and the afforestation of Haloxylon ammodendron dunes has been successful. The preliminary research results have begun to be widely promoted and applied in Minqin and Hexi Corridor sand areas.

Researchers at the Minqin Sand Control Comprehensive Experiment Station pioneered the clay-sand barrier sand-fixing technology based on the local folk sand-fixing methods of "soil-buried dunes" and "mud-flooded dunes". Today, 60 years later, clay-sand barrier sand-pressure and

Afforestation of Haloxylon ammodendron in sand dunes is still the most basic measure to prevent and control desertification in the Hexi Corridor and the vast sandy areas in the northwest."

In the video, the tall emperor penguin master gently patted the arm of an old man who was getting more and more excited as he spoke, and then took over the conversation.

"The total area of ​​China's deserts is about 700,000 square kilometers. If the Gobi Desert of more than 500,000 square kilometers is included, the total area is 1.28 million square kilometers, accounting for 13% of the country's total land area. In particular, the arid northwest area is the most deserted in China.

Concentrated areas account for about 80% of the country’s total desert area.”

In the video, the king of emperor penguins attracts the attention of everyone around him.

After scanning his eyes for a week, he pointed to the endless yellow sand in the distance and continued, "In fact, the desert is not terrible. After all, it is part of the earth's ecology. It is precisely because of the dryness of the desert and the moisture of the ocean that the monsoon is formed, making

Humid water vapor can reach inland, so in the final analysis, desert control work is really controlling desertification.

Just like here in Minqin, most of the desert management in our country adopts the method of artificial planting of shrubs. Haloxylon ammodendron trees are planted along the edge of the desert to stabilize the sand, prevent the invasion of wind and sand from causing greater damage, and lock in the erosion of the desert.

pace.

But you have also seen that the scale of the desert is so huge. If we want to control desertification, we must form a joint force of society. Human contribution is crucial. In addition to the contribution of the country, everyone who is not near the desert can actually contribute.

.”

Ye Chenxi watched as the emperor penguin boss in the video took off his windshield, and then his handsome but slightly childish face was revealed.

"Although compared to the country's total artificial afforestation, the energy each of us can invest is very small. But we can pool everyone's strength and use a game to connect actions such as sand control and tree planting.

Be it saplings, sand fixation, or tree planting funds. Through this game, we let everyone participate and let everyone plant trees in the virtual world, and this game will plant the numbers you plant in the virtual world in these deserts.

among……"

"How about calling it Ant Forest..."

In the video, the young emperor penguin master pointed to the yellow sand under his feet, smiling with the corner of his mouth raised, "Each of us is a little ant in nature, but with the combined power of all our little ants, we can certainly contribute to environmental protection."

Career risk is a huge source of energy.

Therefore, the Ant Forest plan will be officially launched later. I will wait for you on Weibo at 10:00, and let us witness the detailed Ant Forest plan and how to implement the big dream of our group of little ants."

Ye Chenxi felt hot in his heart. The video of the desert just now made him feel depressed.

But as the next content was revealed, he had a strong urge to participate in this event.

Ye Chenxi suddenly felt that the face in the video was not so hateful.

Because he is also an entrepreneur, the Emperor Penguin Master does have many things that others can appreciate.

Perhaps, my wife became obsessed with him because of these things that ordinary people don’t expect?

Jingle bell bell…

The phone rang suddenly,

Ye Chenxi answered the phone and heard the soft voice of his wife Xia Qingyu.

"Husband, I want to go to the Ant Forest and plant trees..."

Ye Chenxi nodded, "Okay, okay, let's plant trees!"

But he quickly typed a few words on the keyboard.

Although those few words were sent out and were instantly submerged in the army of repeaters, Ye Chenxi felt much more relaxed.

"Damn boss, show me your Ant Forest plan!!!"

"Damn boss, show me your Ant Forest plan!!!"

"Damn boss, show me your Ant Forest plan!!!"
