Guest introduction: Sheng Nannan, a senior online bookmaker, is a well-known commercial source code provider in China. He is only 19 years old. He has been selling website source code through Taobao and other platforms all year round. Because the source code is replicable, the source code sold through Sheng Nannan has been resold to make a living. Many second-hand source code dealers later caused the proliferation of repetitive source code on Taobao! As a result, netizens and other website program developers recently launched a collective campaign against Taobao source code vendors, and Sheng Nannan was pushed to the forefront for a while.
Caogenwo: Hello everyone, since the adjustment of Taobao's new rules, Taobao's review of products and merchants has become more stringent. The recent Taobao deletion of source code has caused a great sensation in the Internet industry. The source code merchants headed by Sheng Nannan have entered our vision. Today, Caogenwo is honored to invite Sheng Nannan. Let’s follow the author to share Sheng Nannan’s story. Hello, Katsumoto-senpai.
Sheng Nannan: If you don’t dare, just call me Sheng Nannan. Dear netizens of Caogenwo, hello everyone, I am Sheng Nannan.
Caogenwo: First, please introduce yourself to everyone. How old are you, where did you go to school, and what major did you study.
Sheng Nannan: I was born in 1991, a sophomore, studying history at Anqing University in Anhui Province (I really have no interest in this major)!
Caogenwo: Everyone knows that Taobao has deleted a large number of website source code items in recent days. Can you tell everyone the inside story?
Sheng Nannan: There is no inside story, but sometimes one or two of my products suddenly disappear, and everyone keeps muttering that Taobao has been deleting some products that violate regulations, but recently the intensity has become a bit stronger. The ones that have been deleted during this period are basically the source codes of some companies and enterprises with strong commercial nature. I think it is because several major website program developers have recently increased their efforts to safeguard rights, especially Internet users! Not only Taobao, Paipai, Youah and other platforms' corporate source codes have also been deleted in large quantities. When I was taking an English listening class, I suddenly received the news that the products were deleted and infringed, and four points were deducted! Really depressing.
Caogenwo: You are now considered a representative of the post-90s generation. What kind of business did you do before you started the source code business?
Sheng Nannan: I actually only made the source code in the past six months. It has developed relatively quickly. Before that, I worked as an agent for computer hardware accessories and phone recharge software. I also have some agents under me, and I also made a little money at that time. . It was only later that I found someone to build the website that I found out about the existence of source code. I thought that everyone who made websites was original, but it turned out that they were all standing on the "shoulders of giants"! I have joined source code forums to study, and I have seen that there are a lot of free source codes on the Internet, but most of them contain Trojans, backdoors, inexplicable pop-ups, or incomplete source codes, etc.! Everyone wants to eat the free cake, but they are deeply poisoned! So I spent money to acquire some source code, found technicians to debug the source code, repair it (I still only use stupid IIS) and then released it. Due to my wide network of contacts, I knew many webmasters in the webmaster circle. Soon many webmasters chose to buy source code from me when building websites, and gradually the source code business started. Later, it grew bigger and bigger, and many Taobao stores selling source codes came to copy my products. Then they get the goods from me and resell them. Even the store style is "copied" from mine. This has resulted in the proliferation of the same source code on Taobao, which has affected the buyer's shopping experience to some extent.
Caogenwo: Source code trading is a very sensitive topic, often involving infringement and other issues. Now people have a lot of controversy about you, some criticizing and some praising you. Most of the praising people are webmasters, because they can spend very little money through you. Money buys high-quality website building source code, and most of the detractors are website source code program developers, because the source code they have developed with so much hard work, manpower and financial resources is resold by you at a very low price and suffers great losses. What do you think of this?
Sheng Nannan: I can only say sorry for the loss of the source code developers. In fact, in the source codes I sell, I will state that all source codes are only for buyers to study and discuss. If used for commercial purposes, you will be responsible for the consequences. In fact, the main reason for this is the lack of regulation in China's Internet industry. There is no relevant and feasible laws, regulations, and regulations to regulate it! For example, many space providers directly steal users' programs and databases. Isn't this how the source code I sell flows into the market? First of all, space providers should be required to abide by industry regulations!
Caogenwo: Well, that makes sense. Finally, tell me your views on the Chinese Internet.
Sheng Nannan: Starting from my identity as a radical college student and my current level of knowledge, I hope that China’s Internet will have freer speech in the future and website registration will be more convenient. We also hope that relevant departments will intensify their crackdown on websites that violate relevant national laws and regulations. There must also be strong supervision of the online advertising industry. This is so annoying...
