How to popularize blockchain to self-media celebrities such as Mimi Meng and Financial Gossip Girl?

On December 3, the "WeMedia 3rd China We-Media Annual Conference" of China's largest we-media alliance with the theme of "Liberating Productivity" was grandly opened at the Shangri-La Hotel in Beijing. Huobi COO Zhu Jiawei was invited as the only representative of the blockchain industry to attend and share the keynote speech "Blockchain, the Hot Word of 2016".

WeMedia is the largest self-media alliance in China, with more than 300 self-operated media accounts, covering technology network, life, fashion, entertainment, automobile, finance, literature and other fields. It has more than 40 million fans in total and has a radiating influence on more than 400 million users at home and abroad.

This year, content entrepreneurship, life services, sharing economy, big data, VR, artificial intelligence, cross-border e-commerce, live broadcasting, vertical recruitment, used cars, blockchain, etc. have become the mainstream of industry development and attention. Dozens of leaders in the vertical fields of the Internet, well-known domestic self-media, and various media gathered together to witness the advent of the era of rule change and productivity liberation.

Huobi attended the conference with representatives from TalkingData, iQiyi, Yidian Zixun, Meituan Dianping, UC, Guazi, Tianyancha, Lianjia.com, BOSS Zhipin, Inke, China Merchants Bank and other companies, and shared their cutting-edge views with more than a thousand audience members on site.

In the talk show at the conference, Huobi COO Zhu Jiawei introduced the most popular term in the field of technology and finance in 2016 - blockchain. He took the development and popularization of blockchain and its most common applications in people's lives and work as the starting point, and demonstrated the basic concepts of blockchain in a vivid and interesting way.

This is an era of change

Jack Ma said: "This is an era of change. When many people didn't understand PC Internet, mobile Internet came. When many people didn't understand mobile Internet, big data came." And today, many people don't understand big data, and blockchain is here again.

As early as two years ago, Huobi cooperated with WeMedia Alliance to popularize knowledge about Bitcoin. At that time, one of our colleagues shared with everyone the Bitcoin technology, which is actually what everyone calls blockchain now. The reaction of the participants on site was completely different from today. At that time, fewer people were interested in Bitcoin, and everyone still thought it was too technical.

Blockchain, what have you experienced over the years?

Blockchain was invented "accidentally". Satoshi Nakamoto, the inventor of blockchain, did not invent blockchain just for the sake of inventing blockchain. Blockchain is a technology that has gradually been discovered to be valuable by people since the birth of Bitcoin.

Blockchain, what have I experienced over the years?

There is a joke in the industry that mining, currency speculation, and meetings are the three major applications of blockchain. This is true. There are a lot of meetings in the industry, almost one or two meetings every week. Zhu Jiawei shared training on blockchain technology at Haier University the day before attending this annual meeting and just flew back from Qingdao.

In July this year, Huobi published a book called "Blockchain: Defining the New Pattern of Future Economy and Finance", which was "accidentally" recommended by CCTV2. Zhu Jiawei, who only came into contact with blockchain last year, also "accidentally" became an expert. Blockchain is still a very new industry. For talented people who are determined to make a big splash in the blockchain industry, it is not too late to enter the blockchain industry now.

What the hell is blockchain?

In short, blockchain is a distributed accounting system value transfer network based on the Internet.

What can blockchain be used for?

Blockchain is widely used in areas that require trust and value transfer, such as data preservation, crowdfunding, cross-border payments, clearing and auditing, digital currency issuance, etc.

Blockchain + self-media may give birth to self-finance, and financing will no longer require intermediaries. Self-media people may be able to use it to issue their own bonds in the future.

With blockchain + big data + the Internet of Things, personal health information can be more securely protected and used by relevant medical institutions, providing data support for disease research and treatment. Healthy and long life is no longer a dream.

At the end of his speech, Zhu Jiawei announced on the big screen the top three entries in the "Huobi invites you to introduce blockchain to 400 million people" solicitation activity, which are the best blockchain recommendations of 2016. The result was jointly recommended by Half the Sky in the blockchain circle, namely: Chang Qia, founder of Babbitt, Wen Hao, founder of BitTorrent Wallet, Zhang Jian, founder of Qukuai.com, Jihan Wu, founder of Bitmain, Gang Wu, founder of HaoBTC, and Zhu Jiawei, COO of Huobi.

The three grand prize winners will receive 5,000 yuan, 1,888 yuan, and 1,888 yuan in cash or equivalent bitcoin prizes respectively. Huobi editors will contact the three winners and distribute the prizes to them this week.

Their recommendations and nicknames are :

1. The ultimate problem that blockchain solves is the crisis of trust. In the past, we could only trust centralized organizations such as central banks and central institutions. In fact, this is unreliable, and most facts have proved this. The emergence of blockchain has completely changed this situation, and the decision-making power will be returned to each of us. Once this product comes out, the world will change dramatically.

2. Accounts are everywhere, and everyone knows each other. The whole network is linked, transparent and trustworthy. This is blockchain.

——Yan Xiufeng-Fool

3. Houses will get old, money will become less; collections will be lost, banks will collapse; security is trustworthy, and transparency has no borders; leaving it to the next generation is still your best.

Famous bilingual financial host Ai Cheng and Huobi COO Zhu Jiawei

Huobi launched the "Huobi invites you to introduce blockchain to 400 million people" campaign, which cost 5,000 yuan to collect one sentence, which aroused the curiosity of the beautiful host of the annual meeting, Ai Cheng, who asked Zhu Jiawei about the details of the campaign. Unlike Guazi, which spent 100 million yuan on advertising to build its brand, Huobi, as a company focusing on Bitcoin and blockchain, invested its limited funds more in the popularization and promotion of Bitcoin and blockchain technology.

In the coming 2017, Huobi will continue to spare no effort to let more people around the world know about the emerging technology of blockchain.
