Recently, Zhou Hongyi, founder of 360 Group, was a guest on the “Dr. Gelong Living Room” interview section.

During the interview, Zhou Hongli talked about his entrepreneurial endeavors in various fields such as mobile phones and automobiles.

He said,AI is not a bubble; it can solve problems in certain scenarios and create value. He is now mainly seizing AI opportunities.

Looking back on the development of 360, he saidAfter entering the wireless Internet, 360 should switch to content as soon as possible. Currently, 360 is even more urgently in need of finding a new growth curve.

Zhou Hongyi also said bluntly,It's definitely not my purpose to be a small and easy company.

AI is not a bubble

Referring to her own entrepreneurial endeavors in mobile phones and automobiles, Zhou Hongli said,The promotion of Lei Jun and Xiaomi is not only for Nana, but also a huge warning and inspiration for all car companies. Their propaganda methods are too backward.

He revealed that in the future, Nacha may launch a big model and become the first car company to add a big model at a price of 100,000.

Zhou Hongli has never been optimistic about Web 3.0. No matter how good the concept of Web 3.0 is, it has nothing to do with users. Users only care about you solving their problems; they cannot be decentralized for the sake of decentralization.

According to Zhou Hongyi's analysis,The reason why AI is popular today is not a bubble because AI can solve problems in certain scenarios and create value.

The metaverse is a good concept, but it's too early.Without the support of AI, the metaverse often becomes a 3D image.

Be sensitive to new things

He believes that entrepreneurs need to be sensitive to new things. Everyone is talking about the first curve and the second curve of an enterprise; 360 can't even rely on free and safe food for the rest of their lives.

Although 360 is using the advantages of To C to shift to B and To G, the safety market is characterized by great strategic significance, limited market, and the need for change and innovation.

In addition to safety,As an entrepreneur, you must not only focus on pulling cars, but also look up and see the way.

He admits that one of the biggest mistakes he has made over the past few years is to just pull the car and not see anything new from the outside, especially AI or the metaverse. This may be a disruptive change.

Now it's mainly about seizing AI opportunities

Zhou Hongli believes that when trying to seize opportunities in a new field, not everyone can seize them; in fact, it is amazing to be able to seize one.

Now I'm mainly seizing AI opportunities; this has proven to be an opportunity at the level of an industrial revolution. As times change, entrepreneurs must constantly ensure that their strategies are on the cutting edge.

As for some opportunities that have been seized, some opportunities have not been seized. We should reflect more on why we didn't seize it, whether it was improper use of people, or whether the strategy was not implemented, or the technology was immature, rather than drawing a conclusion that I failed and I would never do it again; otherwise, this is contrary to the spirit of entrepreneurship.

He believes that 360 actually made a huge mistake on the wireless Internet, trying to replicate the original successful experience on the PC Internet to the wireless Internet.

However, the rules of the game are actually not the same. If 360 realizes this difference, they should switch to content sooner.

For Zhou Hongyi,He needs to find a new growth curve even more urgently; he mustFind new breakthroughs.

He said,If there are no breakthroughs, it's just an old business, which is relatively stable, but it's definitely not my purpose to be a wealthy and secure company.
