Since its birth, the Internet has been labeled as a revolution, which can be said to have set off a new technological revolution. The biggest change brought about by this technological revolution is to change people's living habits and ways, and to derive new culture and information dissemination methods. Due to the new communication medium of the Internet, information has broadened the way of communication, enriched the carrier of communication, and strengthened the effect of communication. This emerging thing is like chronic poisoning and continues to invade every corner of society and people's daily lives. However, the development it brings outweighs the harm, so its development should be protected more than hindered.
China's Internet started very late compared to the rest of the world, and it only took more than ten years for it to truly reach the highway of popularization and development. But in the past ten years or so, the domestic Internet has grown at an alarming rate. This "land" came into being from scratch, from barren to fertile, from cultivation to harvest. It has also experienced wind and rain, and disasters, including natural and man-made disasters, but it has never survived. The general framework of China's Internet generally includes a combination of relevant management authorities + large websites and personal online entrepreneurship + small and medium-sized enterprises. The driving force supporting the continuous advancement of the Internet is innovation, individual entrepreneurs and small and medium-sized enterprises. Individual entrepreneurs and small and medium-sized enterprises are the basic components of the Internet. The reason why they are the foundation is that on the one hand, there are many individual entrepreneurs and small and medium-sized enterprises. In the period when the domestic Internet was immature, they were the source of innovation and the driving force for innovation. Power, and when the Internet began to mature, power departments intervened in supervision, and large websites and enterprises developed steadily, they brought more elements to the prosperous Internet, dared to sacrifice themselves, dared to work hard, and gave birth to more innovative ones.
China's Internet cannot be without innovation, and the source of innovation's power is the large but weak individual entrepreneurs and small and medium-sized enterprises. And individual webmasters are the largest group in this group, the weakest in personal strength, and the strongest in overall strength. In the final analysis, China's Internet is developing so fast. To put it bluntly, no one cares about it. In the past ten years of the Internet, there are not many rules and regulations to restrain you. The unfettered and barbaric growth has promoted the innovation of development. The leaping development has allowed Internet entrepreneurs to develop free thinking and devote their entrepreneurial enthusiasm. There are no monopolies here, and there are no management policy barriers on the development path, allowing the power and sources of innovation to survive. I would like to ask, which of today's Internet giants did not develop from individual entrepreneurship, small personal websites, and small companies. It is the freedom of the Internet that allows grassroots webmasters and other online entrepreneurs to unleash their entrepreneurial enthusiasm and talents without any scruples. QQ was also very difficult back then. Inspired by oicq, Ma Huateng developed such an IM software with the image of a little penguin. While imitating, innovation was born. Perhaps even he himself did not expect to achieve what it has today. There are many such examples.
There are 3 million personal websites and about 1.5 million personal webmasters in the country. This number is astonishing. But it is an inevitable phenomenon brought about by the explosive development of the Internet. Without grassroots webmasters who are full of entrepreneurial enthusiasm and devote themselves to the Internet, the Internet would not have achieved what it has today. Li Xingping is a legend in the field of grassroots webmasters. When he first worked as a network administrator in an Internet cafe, he was inspired by an accident to open the hao123 website navigation, which subverted the Internet surfing habits of many junior Internet users. He was eventually acquired by Baidu and retired. If at the beginning, the Internet was as one-size-fits-all as it is now, and if there was any problem, all the machines in the computer room would be blocked. If the website has a little bit of bad information from users that is not handled in a timely manner, the domain name will be held. The website registration has been delayed, and the strict domain name inspection has resulted in the website domain name not being resolved due to registration issues. To build a website, you need to apply for n number of licenses. So, it is conceivable that Li Xingping would not have achieved what he has today. A simple innovation might be strangled in the cradle before it is put into action.
Excessive freedom of the Internet will indeed bring about many problems, such as the proliferation of Internet pornography, uncontrollable illegal speech, Internet addiction, right and wrong of Internet public opinion, etc. Especially now, the country is in a transitional period. It is developing rapidly but social conflicts have further intensified, and the country's control over the Internet has gradually become stricter. However, excessively tightened policies will affect the interests of formal websites and entrepreneurs. In the end, Internet innovation will be restricted, motivation and sources will be curbed, and the development of the Internet will not only retreat. Everything accumulated in the previous ten years will also be burned. As the Internet gradually becomes a mainstream media rather than a tributary of traditional media, how to find a balance between managing the Internet and guiding innovation and development will become an issue that the relevant rights authorities will put on the table for careful discussion. The gradual increase in management awareness is a good thing, and the strict crackdown on network rectification is also a good thing. However, the development of the Internet is inseparable from innovation and the power of grassroots webmasters. The one-size-fits-all management will ultimately benefit not the Internet, nor the grassroots webmasters. It will not attack pornographic websites but regular websites. The eradication of grassroots will only accelerate the monopoly and monopoly of the Internet. Lack of innovation. (Text/Yangyang)
