University of California, Software Faculty, Class 2, Class 3.
Fang Tian walked into the classroom quietly and sat at the last row.
Turbo Ka Ba was at the table beside Feng Yu, and both of them looked at each other briefly before looking at the podium.
Fang Tian: "Have you considered my offer?"
Turbo Ka Ba laughed: "You are asking me to work in your company?"
Fang Tian was stunned: "That's the CEO! Of course, you can think of it as working for me. "
Turbo Ka Ba replied: "If you want me to work for you, you must be much more capable than me."
Fang Tian thought for a while. Should he tell Turbo Ka Ba about his identity? Never mind. There's no need to show off.
At this moment, a Caucasian man with black glasses was teaching in front of the blackboard.
This lesson was about "The Changes of Modern Science and Technology"!
Teacher Mike looked at the textbook and said: "The world's most powerful technology company is Microsoft. Microsoft's Windows operating system had created a lot of value for the world, and its glory will continue. This is a technology empire that will never decline. "
Fang Tian raised his hand: "I have a different opinion."
Teacher Mike was stunned and looked at Feng Yu. "What do you have to say?"
Fang Tian stood up: "Microsoft is old now! It can't keep up with the times, and its best days will be over soon. "
The whole class was shocked when Feng Yu said this. Everyone looked at Feng Yu.
How dare this brat question Microsoft? Microsoft is such a powerful company, and who can overtake them?
Teacher Mike smiled: "I want to know why you have such opinions."
Fang Tian cleared his throat: "Firstly, Microsoft had missed the internet. It is a traditional software company, but after entering the internet era, Microsoft's internet products were not successful. Take MSN as an example. Everyone is using it now, but to me, it is a terrible product! "
Everyone looked at Feng Yu with disdain. If you think Microsoft's products are terrible, why don't you come up with your own? Come up with a better social application than Microsoft.
Fang Tian ignored everyone's stares and looked at Teacher Mike: "Secondly, Microsoft's best days are in the PC era, and it is the mobile internet era."
"Oh, you all still do not have the concept of mobile internet. But I am telling you that Apple is already planning, and Microsoft is not doing anything. "
Everyone looked at each other. Was what he said true? Nonsense, right? You're just a student. What do you know?
Listening to his eloquence, Teacher Mike vaguely felt that he had seen him somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where.
Fang Tian sat down.
Mike continued his lecture with a smile. "Times are constantly changing. Perhaps what he said is true."
"I still remember that when AOL and Time Warner merged, someone said that it was the biggest acquisition tragedy in history. Indeed, that person was right. AOL is in decline now."
The students were puzzled. Who was that person? So awesome?
When AOL acquired Time Warner, many people thought that it was a combination of two superpowers.
Time Warner had music, movies, and a wealth of high-quality media and entertainment content, while AOL had the most powerful platform.
But now?
AOL suffered a loss of 54.2 billion USD! Acquiring Time Warner, not only did 1 + 1 not exceed 2, but 1 + 1 was less than 2!
This was the biggest acquisition tragedy in history!
The students were really curious. Who was the person who predicted AOL's decline?
Teacher Mike smiled and said, "The founder of Soft cloud technology, King!"
Hearing that, everyone was in awe. The founder of Soft cloud technology was indeed a legend. He was actually right.
"He's my idol. I really want to meet him."
"When is he coming to America? I must meet him."
Fang Tian, who was sitting in the last row, smiled gently.
Teacher Mike felt that he looked very familiar. He seemed to have seen him on TV before? He also seemed to have seen his picture in the newspaper?
Suddenly, he slammed his hand on the podium. The loud bang startled the entire class.
"I know who you are." Mike breathed heavily and looked at Fang Tian excitedly.
"Who is he?" All the students' gazes were cast on him.
"He is the founder of Soft cloud technology, Mr. King!"
Once he said that, it was like a bomb landing, exploding in the classroom!
Oh my god, the technological giant is here!
He has always been by our side, right by our side!
No wonder he was so confident when he spoke just now. His arrogance came from his confidence!
Fang Tian stood up and cleared his throat. "I just wanted to listen to the class quietly. I didn't expect Teacher Mike to recognize me."
Suddenly, the classroom was a little chaotic. The students all stood up and surrounded him, asking for his autograph.
Teacher Mike smiled and said, "The class will end in 10 minutes. Everyone wants to hear your insights. Come up and talk about it."
Fang Tian nodded and walked quickly to the podium. He looked at the UC students with a smile.
All the students returned to their seats and listened to him quietly. A famous technological giant was coming to give a lecture. This was a rare opportunity.
Fang Tian picked up a piece of white chalk and wrote a line on the blackboard behind him —
Social media {social media}
Then, he circled the word social with red chalk. {social media}
Fang Tian said, "A year ago, when AOL was at its peak and bought Time Warner, I dared to say that it would decline. Now, everyone can see that AOL is on the verge of bankruptcy!
"Why can I make such a precise judgment? Am I God? No. It's my strategic foresight!
"AOL's failure was because it didn't grasp the opportunity. Its glory was only in the web 1.0 era, but today's Internet has entered the web 2.0 era.
"Today's era is the era of 'social media.' We watch the news and videos together with social media. We comment with them, interact with them, and share what we see with our friends.
"This is the characteristic of 'social media!' AOL didn't grasp the arrival of the new era. Their strategic mistake led to today's tragedy! "
Fang Tian threw down the chalk. "The platform's strategic mistake was the first reason for their failure. The second reason was the acquisition of Time Warner! Yes, it was a wrong acquisition.
"Everyone can see from the performance report that they made a huge loss.
"Time Warner has a huge amount of film and music resources. Many people thought that with AOL's platform, the two would merge. But everyone didn't realize that we have entered the web 2.0 era. Content can be provided by tens of thousands of users. "
Hearing this, everyone was enlightened!
