Content introduction
One day in 1995, Netscape had its IPO. On that day, it became, in about a minute, a $2.1 billion company that kicked off the Internet age to the consternation of the financial press and critics. In the two decades since, the Internet world has changed: Microsoft has been forced from being at the helm to being a passenger on a big ship; Investors' demands for profitability have been collectively rejected by Internet companies; Zuckerberg, 23, has repeatedly turned down offers of a $1 billion buyout... In this never-before-seen game, players who have mastered the logic of the evolution of the Internet will win, while players who choose the wrong route or even are too far ahead will be eliminated. What is the Internet? What is the law of its development process? How do people use this technology to get rich? How did it integrate into human life through the transformation of genius from all walks of life, and how did it change us unconsciously? How can the Internet era and human society achieve each other? This is not the history of the Internet itself, but the history of the Internet era. The Internet is like a high-speed train, whether enterprises or individuals, only by understanding the road passed by this train, in order to better find their own position and direction in the journey to the future.
