As mentioned before, since Zhihu was officially launched in January 2011, it has always adopted a user invitation system in order to ensure the high quality of its community.

Ordinary users cannot register even if they want to!

Everyone in the audience couldn't help but smile knowingly when they heard Yang Xiao's self-deprecating joke about the "low threshold".

"What are you laughing at? I'm not making any insinuations about Zhihu. To be honest, it is indeed a high-quality community with a lot of real information. To be honest, I sometimes read gossip there."

Although Zhihu is now a small Karami community, Yang Xiao doesn't want to give people a chance to criticize him.

Especially in such media conferences, every word can be easily cut out and posted online, leading to over-interpretation.

Even though his purpose in creating the independent [Q&A] community was indeed to compete with Zhihu.

The key is that Yang Xiao is too famous now.

If someone like Junzi and the Red-robed Leader in later generations are called "Internet celebrity CEO".

He can now be given this title.

In addition, with Yang Xiao's current size, if he casually diss Zhihu, it would be suspected of bullying the weak.
Of course, at present, the most high-profile, most popular and most prestigious CEO on the Internet is actually "Lao Ma".
There are endless high-profile speeches on the Internet.

A lot of people have written books and biographies about him, and he is even considered a "youth idol" by many people.

If it weren't for the Ant Financial incident, he would probably have been the most popular CEO from the beginning of Taobao until the end.

After all, he can use his "money power" to get a bunch of stars to accompany him to shoot a movie called "Kung Fu"
Closer to home.

At this time, the people in the audience heard Yang Xiao's additional explanation and still laughed.

In the eyes of outsiders, no matter how he explains, Yang Xiao is always suspected of "praising one while stepping down on one".

But there is no other way. The only way to explain it is to use the current industry benchmark website to explain it in the most intuitive and transparent way.

Yang Xiao took the projection controller and pressed it lightly.

The PPT on the screen switched to the next page, where the four big words [Celebrities Settled In] appeared, followed by some celebrity avatars that had been invited by Yang Xiao to open accounts.

There are many big-name stars among them.

There are Wang Han, Po Jie, and He Lao Shi from the Mango family, the queen of Weibo Yao Chen, Hu Ge from the film and television industry, the hot new star Yang Mi, the grassroots actor Huang Bo, Wang Pixie, and a group of artists and singers under his banner.

Someone roughly counted the sizes of the avatars based on their celebrity status and found that there were more than 200 celebrities appearing on the projector!
Many of them are big stars!

“The Q&A community is a free and open platform. I have invited some celebrity friends from the entertainment industry to join us and answer some gossip that users may want to know.”

"Boss Yang, I just seemed to see Fengjie's profile picture and ID, as well as several internet celebrities I know. Are they all registered here?"

Suddenly, someone in the audience raised his hand and took advantage of the pause in Yang Xiao's speech to ask directly.

"As I said earlier, this is a free and open platform. When it first went online, we invited some celebrities from all walks of life. After all, some netizens care about Fengjie's superior life in America."

Everyone laughed again, thinking that Yang Xiao was really very prestigious.

Create a question-and-answer community, and there are so many people coming to support it, no matter they are big stars or internet celebrities.

Little did they know that Yang Xiao added in his mind, "I've paid, so who can't I invite?"

“In addition, I would like to emphasize here that the [Q&A] community welcomes other people with professional skills and outstanding creators from major platforms to join our [Q&A] community.

At the same time, the [Q&A] community fully protects the interests of major creators, provides them with cash income, and provides motivation to support the quality of their creations! ”

Wow!
Nowadays, the value of internet celebrities has not yet been fully developed.

Their monetization channels are pitifully few.

For example, some bloggers who make videos, or some celebrities in forums, basically they do it for love and create for love.

The platform will not provide them with any benefits at all!
Only the top UP hosts are the ones that the platform attracts and spends money on, but the money is not much because the platform itself has not yet made a profit, a lot!

As for those small and medium-sized creators, the situation is even more bleak.

Therefore, Yang Xiao’s initiative now shocked everyone!
"Mr. Yang, can you tell us about the creators' revenue model? I think everyone is curious about this."

"Well, the source of income is mainly based on users' likes, collections, and views. These data directly reflect the level of support and love from users."

“Is this method like the official certified influencers on Weibo and Zhihu?”

“Haha, maybe it would be more appropriate to say a big V recognized by users.”

Yang Xiao smiled and said, "There are only three months left until the end of 2012. During these three months, the Q&A community may generate many, many questions and many, many answers.

Here, here, I plan to organize an event.
As of December 2012, 12, the Q&A community will collect the 31 best answers with the highest number of likes from users.

It doesn't matter if your answer is a joke, professional knowledge, or an attractive story.

As long as the number of likes is in the first 100!
I declare that I will personally invest 100 million yuan, and I will reward yuan for each best answer!

Welcome people from all walks of life and netizens to participate! ”

Another bombshell!
Everyone in the audience was amazed. Yang Xiao's move was so brilliant.

Most of them are professional media people, and they are all impressed that this guy is really good at hyping and making these hot things.

Yang Xiao knew that netizens liked excitement!
Isn’t this obviously just to attract users to come in and watch the fun?
He really grasped the mentality of not missing something if you pass by it.

"Mr. Yang, December 12st is the end of the world predicted by the Mayans. What if we can't wait until December 21st?"

Suddenly, there was a loud shout from the crowd below the stage, which made everyone laugh.

"If you can't wait, then go die. It just so happens that I have this million dollars left in my hands and can't spend it. It's also good to save me money. I just don't know if I can use it in my next life."

"Tian Di Bank doesn't accept this."

"Hahaha."

After this interruption, the atmosphere became more relaxed. In the crowd, Yang Xiao noticed a girl who had raised her hand for a long time and had not put it down, so he looked at her.

"Student, do you have anything to ask?"

"Mr. Yang, I'm a student from another school and also your fan. This time, I got the invitation to the Q&A conference through my friends at Shenzhen University. I would like to ask, will you join the Q&A community?"

"Hello, classmate. I'm already here. If you download [Question and Answer] now and search my name on it, you'll find me. Also, some of my old fans should know that I'm considered a top surfer."

"I know that Mr. Yang used to frequently post comments and interact on Tieba."

"Yes, I've arrested people on the spot, too!"

"."

After a lot of noise, the boy took the microphone handed to him by the staff and continued to ask:
"That's great, Mr. Yang. Can I start a topic and ask you some questions?"

"Sure, you're welcome to ask questions."

"Then I will download it immediately after I get back and ask you questions." The boy said hopefully.

Yang Xiao nodded: "Okay, I'll ask the staff to leave you a contact number. When you register, just tag me and I'll answer your questions. Of course, only positive questions are allowed. I'll selectively answer personal questions."

The boy was very excited: "Thank you, Mr. Yang."

The curiosity of the audience was aroused, and they all urged:

"Handsome guy, what's the question? Tell me and see if Mr. Yang can answer it. If he can, I'll give you an answer."

"Yes, just say it on the spot, everyone wants to listen."

"You don't want to ask Mr. Yang if he has a girlfriend, how much money he has, etc.?"

"Um"

The boy was carried up, looking a little embarrassed. After a moment of silence, he quickly explained with a red face:
"No, no, I won't ask personal questions.

Well, to be honest with you, I am a freshman and in the same grade as Mr. Yang.

What I want to say is that I am actually a repeater.

When I was in my senior year of high school, I was under a lot of pressure, had a face full of acne, and felt very inferior. I even gave up on myself at one point. It was because of the heartwarming stories written by Mr. Yang that helped me get out of that dark time, pick myself up again, and get admitted to my target university.

But after entering university, I became confused again. I didn’t know what my future would be like.

I heard from seniors that I must work hard and strive to become a good and outstanding person.

Well, I saw on the Internet that you, Mr. Yang, are also a child from an ordinary family, but how hard do I have to work to become a very outstanding and powerful person like you? "

After the boy finished speaking, everyone in the audience seemed to be thinking about something, and then looked at Yang Xiao on the stage, expecting him to give a reply.

Damn, it’s another person who has been brainwashed by the toxic chicken soup on the Internet, and he’s a man!

Uh. If you’re not brainwashed by chicken soup, you won’t read my book.

Yang Xiao secretly complained in his heart, and complained about himself, then said with a smile:

"This question is very interesting. How about this? I'll go back and think about it, and then tonight, on the platform, I'll give you a serious answer. Is that okay?"

"it is good!"

"Looking forward to Mr. Yang's answer!"

Seeing that Yang Xiao had kept the secret, there was another round of cheers from the audience, and many media people were also happy.

This has become even more of a hot topic.

Even the eye-catching title has been thought out - [What should I do? To become a great person? See what Yang Xiao has to say! ]

Afterwards, Yang Xiao interacted with the audience and answered some other questions.

In the middle, co-founder Li Zhuofan also gave some answers from reporters.

The entire press conference ended in a relaxed and pleasant manner.

Finally, at the end, Yang Xiao dropped a new and explosive piece of news on the stage.

To be precise, it's an advertisement.

“Good news for those who like to listen to audio radio!

In the middle of next month, my new product [Shi Guang FM] audio radio will be launched on major application markets on time.

There are a large number of genuine audio novels here such as "Grave Robbers' Chronicles", "Fights Break Sphere", "Douluo Dalu" and emotional stories collected from "one day".

At the same time, we have also specially included some skits, film and television soundtracks, crosstalk, and even refreshing supernatural novels, etc. There are all kinds of categories, and everyone is welcome to download and use them! "

"."

Some media people were speechless, thinking that Yang Xiao was really good at advertising.

Damn, at a press conference, they announced a product that hasn’t even been released yet?

Yang Xiao smiled, but he was not speaking to the audience.

He said this to the camera!
Although this press conference was not broadcast live, it was recorded in its entirety!
It will be uploaded to all major video platforms, and his fans must watch it!

Make the best use of everything and use it for advertising. Yang Xiao didn't waste the time of this press conference at all.

Of course, there is another reason.

It’s because Yang Xiao is not planning to attend the press conference, so just go online quietly.

There are quite a lot of audio radio software at this time.

For example,蜻蜓FM has been online since last year.

There are only a few main forces, but too many miscellaneous troops.

The cost of this thing is very low. Many teams just set up a website, hire a few female anchors, and then steal some manuscripts, and they can do it.

Gaining tens of thousands of users is easy.

It can be done, but it can't be big.

For Yang Xiao, once he enters this line of work, he will be able to kill anyone, there is nothing to be afraid of!
The main thing is that he has so many copyrights, and it would be a waste if he doesn’t use them.

The press conference ended at 4:30 and lasted for an hour and a half.

However, before five o'clock, some videos recorded by other audience members at the scene were uploaded to the Internet, which immediately sparked discussion among netizens.

"Is this true? Yang Xiao personally invested one million to organize this event?"

"Haha, this is just advertising, as if everyone knows it."

"You have money, why don't you pay one million to beat one? Mr. Yang is supporting creation! Respecting the original creator! Awesome!"

"Yes, the [Q&A] platform also provides income for creators. How many platforms can do this? How many platforms have this kind of strength?"

"Support Mr. Yang!"

"Is there any new audio software to be released? I am looking forward to it. I will play crosstalk for my grandpa when the time comes."

"."

"No, it's almost eight o'clock in the evening. What time will Mr. Yang answer? I saw that the official has already brought up this topic. Is the user who brought up this topic the one with glasses?"

"The guy with glasses looks pretty good, cute!"

"There's a pervert upstairs, be careful."

“I’ve seen a lot of users answering. Hey, some of the highly-rated answers are really well-written!”

Of course, what people are most looking forward to is the suspense that Yang Xiao will keep at the press conference.

Where is the answer he promised?

After the media hype of the press conference, Sohu News, NetEase News, etc. all began to broadcast the news through their own portal websites.

There are also Tieba, Douban, Weibo, etc. Some of them are paid, and some are spontaneous.

[What should I do? To become a great person? See what Yang Xiao has to say! ]

Just put this topic on the homepage.

For a moment, at least 100,000 netizens were concerned about what Yang Xiao could say.

Not only teenagers, but also some office workers in their twenties and thirties, are very curious when they see this topic and are waiting for the answer.

11pm.

Yang Xiao pressed the publish button in the house he had purchased in Shenzhen before.

In fact, he finished writing at nine o'clock.

As for why it only starts at 11 o'clock?
Well, those who understand will understand that people are the most emo at this time!
"I'm coming."

"Here comes Mr. Yang's answer!"

A group of night owls finally waited and clicked in to take a look.

【@User Xiaofei: How hard do you have to work to become a great person? 】

【@Yang Xiao:

No thanks for the invitation, I'm in outer space, just landed on the moon.

First of all, my friend, if you make a promise to others, you must fulfill it.

I used to, like you, want to be a very, very, very powerful person.

I like to watch passionate things and imagine myself as a dragon-slaying warrior, a tower climber. I have a sword in my left hand and light in my right hand. I burn myself mindlessly. The enemy cavalry is coming and I say, who among you can fight against them? My woman is waiting for me.

It seems that although my thoughts have been changing along with the development of my genitals, that very powerful person has always been far away from me, even getting farther and farther away. 】

[The young man who once held a sword in my heart is now wandering in the market, and my blood seems to have run cold.]

[The surging crowd drowned a young man like you. When the crowd dispersed, you disappeared too. No one could hear your promises. There would never be a more interesting and beautiful girlfriend for you in this world.]

[You broke your promise, you little bastard! ]

[No matter how small the flame is, we must light it again and again.]

[My friend, the most important thing to become a very powerful person is to be passionate.

Never let your blood run cold, you have run cold.

You will never find a more interesting and beautiful girlfriend, and you will break your promise, so the day she came to you in a dream will become a complete joke. 】
