Chapter 54 It’s narrow-minded of you to think so!

“I am in tears, and I am overjoyed. The Chinese internet will finally be quiet from now on!”

“Punish me, punish me severely!”

As soon as the announcement came out, it even involved the transfer of criminal responsibility to the judicial authorities, and there was a major investigation afterwards. The audience who had been feeling aggrieved on the Internet suddenly burst into tears and rushed to tell others that it felt like the New Year.

“But I have to say it, what about Weibo? Why don’t you check Weibo?”

“How could they not investigate? They were the first to be investigated in the follow-up special operation, but they were cowardly. They just announced a self-investigation before the investigation team arrived, and then they used an employee as a shield, saying that the employee privately adjusted the model parameters, which caused the search data to be abnormal. I didn’t believe him!”

“Let me tell you a joke. Just two days ago, the number of registered Weibo users exceeded 80 billion.

“Hahaha, this is really a joke, the world’s population is only this much!”

“Don’t worry about them. Support Xiaosha and the Xiaosha Index. In just a short while, the effect is very significant. The Internet is much quieter now. Only a few Wows are still winning, winning, winning. As long as we don’t give them traffic, it has nothing to do with most people.”

……

The emergence of the Xiaosha Index has made the channels for the dissemination of public information on the Internet “verifiable”. This certainly does not mean that the information will accurately correspond to each individual, but it does mean that it is “verifiable” in a statistical sense.

Among them, the communication channel index and human intervention index provide a solid and practical basis for supervision.

In the field of AI, especially in terms of AI information and big data push, the long-term problem of lack of supervision will no longer exist.

Those who push illegal and irregular content and blame it on AI will be exposed.

The originally precarious online public opinion environment has been completely renewed, and ordinary people naturally applaud this.

But there is a group of people who are different, such as Song Songde, who is the operations manager of a social media company.

“This is too much! We withdrew their negative articles immediately, but Baiju Technology still wants to mess with us!”

As an industry insider, Song Songde was of course the first to see the announcement from the Cyberspace Administration of China. The case was actually transferred to judicial authorities for criminal prosecution, which has never happened before. This shows that he has been caught!
While my heart was pounding, I was also furious: “Baiju Technology is trying to kill us all!”

“Manager, we just followed the trend and fanned the flames of the incident we investigated this time, and the money we received was not much, so it shouldn’t be a big problem.”

The assistant hurriedly comforted him, “I’ve also seen the capabilities of the Xiaosha Index. Its traceability capability is extremely powerful and it can accurately lock onto the source of information dissemination, which is exactly what is beneficial to us.

“Because we never do it ourselves. Even if we do, we bribe others to create information, and then forward it behind the scenes. At most, we are accomplices and will be fined, but that’s it.”

“This time the problem is not big, but what about the future? He made a small sand index and put it here, which completely cuts off our space to cause trouble. As long as we move, the supervision will find it immediately!”

Song Songde became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and at this point he was gritting his teeth: “Destroying someone’s financial resources is like killing their parents!”

“Paid streaming…”

“Paid streaming is fine, but it’s all out in the open, I…”

Song Songde was so excited that he almost let the cat out of the bag. On the surface, all the money had been deposited into the company account, so how could he make the money himself? Moreover, the foreign forces were really generous. Just by slightly adjusting the parameters and doing some tricks, a huge sum of money could be made.

Finally, he held it back and added awkwardly, “This is such a disaster!”

……

“You are such a nuisance. Be careful when you go out next time!” When He Gang saw Hao Cheng again in the afternoon, he half-jokingly and half-reminded him that, given the domestic security environment, most of the time there was no need to worry about safety, except when someone got mad. He Gang did not expect that Hao Cheng would make such a big fuss all of a sudden.

“To be honest, I didn’t expect them to act so quickly. They must have just caught up.”

Hao Cheng shook his head. “I originally thought that this thing was more of a deterrent than a practical one, just to stop them from doing evil in the future. But who knew that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology wanted to take action against them, so they got the evidence. But isn’t this just right for us? We can have a big publicity campaign tonight, and no one will come to mess with us.”

“I inquired about the investigation team leader He Zhen. It turns out that he is the second-in-command in the public security field. It can be seen that the higher-ups still attach great importance to the public opinion environment, but they were really powerless to change the situation before.”

He Gang said: “This time, Xiaosha Index can help him a lot. Wait, he will definitely come to you.”

“That’s a narrow-minded way of thinking,” Hao Cheng shook his head. “Mr. He, have you ever thought about the fact that the channels for disseminating information are not limited to entertainment social platforms?”

“What do you mean?” He Gang asked as he heard that Hao Cheng had some hidden meaning in his words.

“Xiaosha is an assistant AI that filters and obtains information on behalf of its owner. Is this information limited to entertainment information? Can I order takeout?
“Let’s take food delivery as an example. Merchants and riders have suffered for a long time from food delivery platforms. They often charge 20 to 30 percent of the commission. Let alone the net profit of the catering industry, how much is the gross profit? All the money earned is taken by the platform.

“Isn’t the reason because the food delivery platforms control the information delivery channels?

“Is it possible for businesses to make an APP themselves? Except for a few large chain restaurants, small stores cannot do this. First, the development cost is extremely high. Second, even if you develop it, you have no way to promote it.”

“What do you want to say?” He Gang was shocked, as if he had grasped something in his heart, but he was not sure whether Hao Cheng said the same thing as he said.

“Will Xiaosha not launch software development capabilities next?” Hao Cheng said: “Combined with the meta-services of HarmonyOS Next, every merchant can build their own meta-service store at a very low cost.

“As for promotion, don’t worry about it. The information screening and acquisition capabilities of the assistant AI and the professional software development capabilities have built a bridge at this time. As long as you do a good job, Xiaosha will select yours for his master.”

“Why did you think of doing this?” He Gang was puzzled.

“You know, when I first told my wife how convenient AI was, for example, Xiaoyi could transfer money with just one sentence, and YOYO could order coffee with just one sentence,” Hao Cheng recalled:

“At that time, my wife asked: This AI only helps people spend money, why can’t it help people make money? Everyone can spend money, the key is where to make the money?
“When a whale dies, everything comes back to life. I think considering the evils of the food delivery platforms, their deaths are not worth it.” Hao Cheng said: “If their deaths can bring new life to thousands of small shops and more job opportunities for programmers, their deaths are worth it.

“As for whether it can succeed, I don’t know, but let’s give it a try. Besides, only HarmonyOS Next can do this now. Even if it fails, the impact can be controlled to a local range.”

“You mean, countless small platforms, or even single-store platforms, will replace the current giant platforms? While providing more opportunities, they will also reduce the exploitation by the giant platforms?”

He Gang summarized for a long time and roughly understood what Hao Cheng wanted to do: “In the past, this would never be done because of the promotion channels, but now with Xiaosha’s ability to filter information, it is possible to succeed.”

“Yeah.” Hao Cheng nodded.

“You mean, giants shouldn’t exist?” He Gang was also a little confused, because he felt that Hao Cheng was right, but there were some things he couldn’t understand.

“It’s not that giants shouldn’t exist, but that blood-sucking giants shouldn’t exist. When a whale dies, all things come to life. It’s time for them to benefit the people.” Hao Cheng emphasized:

“The purpose of the existence of giants is to concentrate their efforts on doing big things, such as conducting scientific research and breaking through cutting-edge technology, but it is definitely not to become a platform to exploit the bottom layer.

“I only have a rough outline in my mind right now. I will take advantage of the opportunity to enhance my software development capabilities by acquiring this capability through information screening in Tui Xiaosha, and find a specific breakthrough point to try out my vision for the future of AI in many fields.

“The food delivery platform is the most suitable. I don’t feel any guilt in killing them. These parasites don’t deserve to die!”
