"How do you like these dishes?"
"To be courteous for nothing is to commit adultery or to steal. For the sake of this sumptuous dinner, Dad, feel free to ask." He put the chicken legs into his father Zhou Dashuai's bowl. "This is to honor your hard work and hard work." , and gave me a reward for betraying me by forgetting about food and sleep."
"If you're not satisfied, can we change it?"
"It has taken root and sprouted. It cannot be replaced." He said with a shy smile.
Looking at his daughter with a happy smile on her face, Marshal Zhou felt happy and said, "Now that we're done, there's something I want to hear your opinion on."
"Dad, tell me."
"What do you think of the virtual world?"
"I used to be very optimistic about the virtual world. After all, it is a hot topic in society at the moment. But when Lin Sen talked about the virtual world devouring people's souls, it shocked me a lot. We seemed to be unknowingly being... The creators of the virtual world are enslaved. Therefore, it is difficult to judge whether the virtual world has good or bad value to society. For example, how do you judge the value of a virtual account?"
"Judge based on the number of fans he has, as well as the number of likes, comments, collections, reposts and other data on the content he publishes."
"Then how to judge whether these data are true or false?"
"Now that you've said it, if you think about it carefully, there seems to be no particularly good way."
"The authenticity of this data is not only a static result, but also a dynamic process. For example, if we follow each other on platform A, and then you no longer play platform A, then your number of fans is considered real to me. Does the data still count? For another example, if I registered two accounts on platform A and followed you at the same time, does the number of real fans you added count as 1 or 2? These are easy to judge in the real world, but difficult in the virtual world Judgment. If we add the situation of robot accounts, the judgment will be even more unclear."
Marshal Zhou frowned and asked in confusion: "Is there no one to solve this problem?"
"Whether it is the value of personal accounts or the value of these companies, they all conduct business valuations based on data. Once the data shrinks, it means devaluation or even collapse. Therefore, everyone is rushing to inject water into it, who will go in the opposite direction? Remove the false and preserve the true? In this evil trend, bad money drives out good money, and everyone becomes a slave to data."
After hearing this, Dashuai Zhou's face became even darker: "So the virtual world is moving towards the false world."
"I feel the same way. Now when I look back and read the various books and academic theories on online product promotion, I feel that they are very immature, like a utopia, and particularly unrealistic. They are all avoiding a core issue. In terms of fairness and authenticity in this artificially created world, at least the real world still follows natural laws that are not dependent on human will. For example, the word "flow", in reality, at least I can see the flow of people. On the Internet, traffic is like a burst of smoke, ethereal. In the past, I focused on how to make users spread virally, such as producing good content, combining creativity, hot spots, and matching people with tipping points... But I have never thought about the deeper question, is this artificially created world fair? Is it real? If I am in an unfair and unreal world, but compete in a fair and real way. Use an egg to touch a stone, Isn’t that stupid?”
Marshal Zhou nodded with satisfaction and said, "It seems that I learned a lot from Lin Sen. You wouldn't have felt stupid before."
"How dare I feel stupid? Isn't this a slap in the face, dad?" He laughed loudly.
"So you will compromise?"
Zhou Zhiqi calmed down, with perseverance in her eyes: "If you couldn't find any other way out, you might be confused, but you won't be now. I want to follow Lin Sen and the others to see how Siwo solves this problem."
"Zhiqi, didn't you say you wanted to come to my place to report?"
"Dad, I am carrying out the arduous task of crossing the river by feeling the stones as assigned by you. Besides, I will provide you with a free service to answer your questions. I will tell you everything I know, and I will tell you everything. No matter what, it is all you who make the profit."
"That's not what you said at the beginning." Marshal Zhou sighed deeply and looked like he was about to cry but had no tears.
"Dad, this is too delicious. Try it." He said with a happy smile and coaxed his father, Marshal Zhou: "Your cooking skills are amazing. I will bring Lao Lin back to try it some other day."
