Chapter 445: Expert Zhao (Part 1)

Chen Daqiao, a man who takes advice well, was up for his speech soon, so he asked Zhao Qingfeng in the restroom what the leaders would like to hear.

Zhao Qingfeng didn’t hold back, “Brother Chen, from the perspective of the Information Industry Bureau, their main concern is information security, and the key to ensuring information security is the full implementation of the real-name system. So, I suggest you talk about the benefits of the real-name system in your speech and make a commitment to implement it as much as possible for future registered users of your service.”

Chen Daqiao was momentarily taken aback, “Would that be useful?”

Zhao Qingfeng chuckled, “Just go with it.”

Still puzzled, Chen Daqiao said, “Zhao, I know your company has been pushing for the real-name system. I’ve registered with Lexin with my real name. Er…to be honest, I even campaigned for votes from beauties in our city. But, this thing is quite bothersome, isn’t it? Gamers are impatient; they’re used to registering an account and jumping straight into the game. Adding a real-name registration step will definitely have some impact.”

The impact is inevitable, but from a long-term perspective, the real-name system is necessary.

Zhao Qingfeng wanted to add more when Ma Huateng came in.

Hearing Zhao Qingfeng and Chen Daqiao’s conversation, he joked, “Old Chen, I suggest you don’t just say anything. After all, no one can guess what the leaders of the Information Industry Bureau are thinking. Besides, Zhao is always a clever man; if there were such a good deal, why wouldn’t he speak for himself instead of letting you do it?”

Chen Daqiao pondered, finding some sense in that.

Zhao Qingfeng, remaining neutral, finished up and returned to the conference room on his own.

After taking his seat, it was Sohu’s Zhang’s turn to speak.

This laid-back CEO, skilled in physics, talked about irrelevant matters, even touching on human nature and expressing a desire to sing if the occasion allowed.

Then Ding Sanshi spoke about the development of gaming.

Next up was Ma Huateng, who had prepared a lot but was inspired by the “real-name system.”

After criticizing the real-name system, he shared his views, “I don’t think the real-name system is necessary.”

“Some companies are vigorously promoting the real-name system, which might be related to the sale of citizens’ personal information.”

“Of course, I’m not singling out any company; I’m just saying it’s a possibility.”

“Moreover, the development of the real-name system will significantly reduce the anonymity of netizens on the internet, which goes against the spirit of ‘freedom and sharing’ of the internet, so I am against promoting the real-name system.”

After speaking,

The audience burst into applause.

Ma Huateng, satisfied, glanced at Zhao Qingfeng and then at Chen Daqiao as he stepped down.

Chen Daqiao felt uncertain but received an encouraging look from Zhao Qingfeng before taking the stage.

Chen, a man of the world, had already quite approved of Zhao Qingfeng.

Despite not knowing the Information Industry Bureau’s stance on the “real-name system,” from the perspective of brotherhood, it was necessary to speak in favor of Lexin and Zhao Qingfeng. So, he highlighted a few benefits of the real-name system before analyzing the current internet situation, stepping down to warm applause.

Following that, CEOs of various internet companies took turns to speak.
