Chapter 2504

"The Internet era?" Several people cast their eyes on Zhou Andong, all with questions on their faces.

"Yes!" Zhou Andong slowly withdrew his gaze: "Do you believe it? The Internet will become the third industrial revolution in our human history. It will change the whole world. In the future, the Internet will penetrate into every aspect of our lives. Eating, traveling, shopping, entertainment, and so on!"

Zhou Andong's words made the several people present stunned for a while. They knew about the Internet. In the past year or so, newspapers would report on it from time to time.

Plus, those high-tech companies in Zhongguancun were almost all related to the Internet, so they naturally knew something about it. However, Zhou Andong's words just now were really too mysterious. They forced themselves to believe it, but they were not people who deceived themselves.

Gu Bing sneered and said with a curled lip: "Are you telling us a science fiction story?"

At this time, Dai Weimin's secretary, Kong Yu, returned, and Bai Wenlu followed behind with a thermos. Then, the two put the washed cups on the coffee table, put in tea leaves, poured hot water, and then retreated to the side.

Zhou Andong reached out to pick up the cigarette box, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. Then he picked up the lighter, lit the cigarette, leaned back, and crossed his legs.

"I know about the Internet. After all, there are many high-tech companies in Zhongguancun that are related to the Internet, but I haven't studied it in depth. However, I traveled around the United States last year and came into contact with the Internet for the first time, and I specifically learned about it in depth.

As for what I just said, it's just some of my guesses about the future development of the Internet. However, I am very confident in these guesses of mine. I believe that in the near future, it will definitely become a reality.

As for whether you believe it or not, it doesn't matter. Anyway, the Internet era has arrived. In a few years, you will naturally see the changes it brings."

Even if Zhou Andong said so, no one believed it. No, Wu Hongkang seemed to believe it. He looked at Zhou Andong and said thoughtfully: "Old Zhou, if it's really like what you said, the Internet will spread to every corner of my life, doesn't that mean..."

Zhou Andong laughed: "Old Wu, you are the smartest one here."

Gu Bing blinked his stupid and clear eyes and said with dissatisfaction: "If you have something to say, just say it clearly. What kind of riddles are you playing?"

Zhang Shenghui said with a smile: "If it's really like what Old Zhou said, then the Internet will create many wealth myths."

Old Zhang still didn't believe Zhou Andong's words, but if Zhou Andong invested in the Internet, it would definitely not affect him drinking soup behind him. Because Zhou Andong was really cunning, and he would definitely not do a losing business.

Wu Hongkang looked at Zhou Andong and said: "Old Zhou, if the Internet rises, will you enter it?"

"Of course!" Zhou Andong nodded: "Not only will I enter, but I have to start laying out next year. Because entering early allows you to eat the fattest meat."

"Eh?" Dai Weimin, who was flipping through the newspaper, made an "eh" sound, then suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhou Andong: "Factory... Factory Director, did you acquire Sony Entertainment?"

Zhou Andong took the newspaper and looked at it, then put it gently on the coffee table: "It's called an acquisition, but actually I used Sony shares to exchange for it."

"Used Sony shares to exchange for it?" Wu Hongkang didn't understand Zhou Andong a bit: "Old Zhou, you are such a smart person, you actually used Sony shares to exchange for Sony Entertainment. What exactly are you thinking?"

Zhang Shenghui pondered for a while and said: "For the time being, it seems that using Sony shares to exchange for Sony Entertainment is a big profit. But, with Sony's foundation and technology, Sony's stock price will definitely recover. So in the long run, it's a big loss."

"You don't understand." Gu Bing said with great momentum: "We are going to fight a cultural war with the Yankees."

Wu Hongkang widened his eyes: "Fight a cultural war with the Americans?"

Not only Wu Hongkang, but Zhang Shenghui, Liu Lijuan, and Dai Weimin also looked at Gu Bing with disbelief. They felt that the factory director was already whimsical enough, how could the secretary be the same, and even more outrageous.

The factory director said that the Internet would change the world and change life, and it was the third revolution of mankind. Although it was also very exaggerated and not so realistic, at least it could be fantasized about, and maybe it could be realized. But to fight a cultural war with the Americans, this was a bit of a daydream. Since it was a war, and a cultural war, it was a contest between countries. Could a company, a businessman, do it?

Gu Bing stood up, put his hands on his hips and waved his arms, having a momentum of waving his arms: "Cultural war, also known as cultural conflict or cultural invasion, refers to the confrontation and competition for influence between different cultures. It usually occurs in the context of globalization, where the culture of a country or region is impacted and influenced by foreign cultures, thereby triggering the protection of local culture and opposition to foreign cultures. The characteristics of cultural war are competition for cultural dissemination and influence through media, education, art, commerce, and other means."

Speaking of this, Gu Bing bent down to pick up the cigarette box, took out a cigarette and held it between his fingers, and then waved his hand again.

Just last month, our country introduced the first Hollywood movie. I think you all know about this. This movie is still being shown, and the sensation it caused in the country is simply beyond imagination. It is no exaggeration to say that it has become a hot topic in current society, and almost everyone knows it.

And this is just a beginning. With our country's accession to the WTO being a foregone conclusion, the Yankees will definitely seize this opportunity to use Hollywood movies as a powerful cultural weapon to launch a silent cultural invasion against us.

They will use this method to subtly influence our next generation, the next next generation, and the next next next generation, making our descendants brainwashed unconsciously, thereby losing their sense of identity and pride in local culture.

As a result, I earnestly persuaded Comrade Zhou Andong, hoping that he could use the Sony shares in his hands to exchange for Sony Entertainment. However, he was not interested in this proposal, and even very resistant. I really feel a bit of "hating iron for not becoming steel" towards him. But for the sake of the country, for the nation, and for our descendants, I definitely couldn't give up, so I persistently analyzed the wolfish ambition of the Yankees to him.

I eloquently and endlessly expounded the pros and cons to him, wanting him to understand the importance and necessity of doing so, and also deeply analyzed the conspiracy and calculations of the Yankees. My mouth was dry, and my throat was smoking."

Gu Bing glared, pointed at Zhou Andong, looking like he was gnashing his teeth: "But this short-sighted bastard was still indifferent. There was no way, since my heart only belongs to the country and the people, I had no choice but to continue to persuade him. I drank up the water in three thermoses in a row, and this bastard finally barely agreed..."

Zhou Andong's mouth twitched fiercely. He opened his mouth, wanting to insult Gu Bing a few times, but finally endured it, deciding to leave some face for his brother-in-law. After all, his brother-in-law had been blocking in front of him all day, holding a big knife and shouting to charge for him. If he didn't even let him brag, it would really be a bit unkind.

Liu Lijuan and Dai Weimin's eyes on Gu Bing were not right. Before, they had no feeling about Gu Bing, the secretary. After all, what ability could a secretary who turned around the factory director's butt all day have? But after these words today, Gu Bing's image in their hearts changed immediately, and there was a trace of respect in their eyes.

As for Zhang Shenghui and Wu Hongkang, they didn't know Gu Bing, but Zhou Andong had told them about the topic of cultural war. And as early as the Yangcheng Entrepreneurs Forum last year, it was mentioned, so they didn't believe a word of Gu Bing's words.
