<h4>Chapter 1103 – Where are the awesome people?!</h4>


    The Summit started, and Feng Yu entered the venue with Sun Lijie. Feng Yu and Sun Lijie were dressed down, and they sat on some empty seats in a corner.


    There is a corridor in the middle, and more than 100 reporters and photographers sat on the rows beside the corridor.


    Hmmm... This is the grand hall of Wind and Rain Building. Feng Yu had instructed to build a grand hall within his building. This hall is the top venue for industry summits, dialogues, etc.


    Feng Yu had built this hall for his own use, but now, he can still make money. At the same time, he was also frustrated. If he knows this event is held in the Wind and Rain building, he does not need any invitation cards. He can just get the venue manager or security guards to let him in.


    Feng Yu looks around and saw some familiar faces. But the majority of the people there are strangers.


    Where is Ma Yun? Based on Feng Yu’s memories from his previous life, Ma Yun should have started his business. Did Softbank invest in Ma Yun’spany already?! It shouldn’t be. Tai Hua Consultancy was advertised aggressively all over China and is the first choice forpanies that require funding.


    Should I go and approach Ma Yun? I might make lesser money, but it’s better than letting Softbank get the profits.


    Also, where are the awesome people from the inte industry? Howe they are not around? Errr... Could it be that they still have not set up theirpanies?


    Fan Tianming went up the stage and knocked on the microphone lightly. “Leaders and guests... on behalf of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, I wee you all to China’s first inte summit!”


    The crowd pped.


    After that, Fan Tianming made a long speech until Feng Yu almost fell asleep. It was those boring speeches by government leaders, praising the government, etc.


    The speech finally ended.


    Eh, why is Old Liu going up on to the stage?


    Liu Chuanzhi was the first representative to speak on the stage.


    No otherpanies in China can challenge Lenovo Group’s status.


    “Leaders, guests, and friends from the media.... I am honored to be invited to give a speech at this Summit... three years ago. Our inte is considered narrowband to other countries. Narrowband is the opposite of the broadband we are talking about now. It means our inte speed is far behind other developed countries. Their inte speed is over 256KB/S, and ours can only reach 64 KB/S. This is like when others are riding motorcycles, we are still riding our bicycles. This is the difference.”


    “Now, we are starting to ride motorcycles, but other countries had started to drive cars. Although the gap is still wide, we can catch up. Broadband is the revolution of the inte!”


    “Now, the inte market is very popr and is the trend. Manypanies added the word, ‘inte’ to theirpanies’ names to follow this trend and then get venture capitalists to invest in them. After thesepanies got listed, their share prices shot up like crazy. Is adding the word ‘inte’ to apany’s name make them intepanies? Will removing the word ‘inte’ makes thepany’s name makes them no longer an intepany? Lenovo Group does not have the word ‘Inte’ in its name. But are we unrted to the inte?”


    Liu Chuanzhi continued with his speech and had gone off tracked.


    Old Liu is attacking the inte bubble forming in China. He is really daring to say all these. Fan Tianming and other government leaders should be unhappy now.


    But to the higher-ups, Liu Chuanzhi is an important figure to China. He is the one who brought China’s PCs to the rest of the world.


    Some of the audience start to discuss among themselves. These people should be the ones whosepanies had nothing to do with the inte industry. Maybe they had set up apany’s website and ims to be an intepany.


    Oh... Wang Zhixi is also going up the stage to give a talk. He talked about Sina’s development in online news media. No otherpanies canpete with Sina because of its unique news channel.


    Ding Lei also went up on the stage to talk about email and online games. There are many online games out there, but none of them canpete with Legend of Mir. The number of registered yers in those games is lesser than the number of online yers in Legend of Mir.


    Zhang Chaoyang talks about the prospect of online forums and the future of inte videos.


    No one among the audience thinks the online TV channels can be sessful. Watching videos through the inte? Bullshit! It will be tooggy to watch anything. It might be possible if you download the movie, but buying the movie DVD is more convenient.


    Zhang Chaoyang walks down the stage, looking terrible. Why did you all think watching videos online is not possible? There are such websites overseas, like South Korea. If they can do it, so can we!


    Who says our inte infrastructure cannot catch up with South Korea? Even if we cannot catch up with them in one year, we will catch up with them in three to five years!


    But Zhang Chaoyang is not giving up. Manager Feng had promised him that he will be investing a sum of money in setting up a new department.


    Even Manager Feng thinks this will seed. I am looking forward to looking at everyone’s expression when we seed!


    The representatives went up the stage to give talks, and Feng Yu carefully looked at each of them. But he realized he doesn’t know any of them. Damn! There are so many sessful inte entrepreneurs in his previous life. Where did they go?!


    Ok. Feng Yu had only noticed those sessful inte entrepreneurs’ pictures on the papers and did not purposely remember their looks. After all, not all bosses are as unique looking like Ma Yun.


    Also, many of these inte entrepreneurs are like Feng Yu. They do not like to be featured on the news or like to be disturbed. That’s why there are very few pictures of them online or on the papers. Feng Yu can only remember their names andpanies.


    Feng Yu got bored. He hade here to look for those awesome inte entrepreneurs but ended up listening to talks. Even those government leaders are talking on the stage. What nonsense are they talking about? What caring, encouragement, etc.? Didn’t Fan Tianming said all these earlier?


    Don’t you all know that you all are saying the same things in different sequences?
