China Internet Conference 2007

1, They dont speak English
I can still remember that there were two English holding pages for China Internet Conference at 2005 and 2006. I still keep the link here. But the link is dead and there isnt any English holding page for China Internet Conference 2007. I know Mr Huang Chengqing is always looking forward to expand the brand of China Internet Conference, but I dont think the organization that runs the event really understand his idea. Although the chinese website and the event looks more fancy this year, there are just a few English words there. Yes, they dont speak english on the website. Or they just dont care.  

2. Search Engines say alike
The search engines are those I care during the China Internet Conference. From Dr Li Kaifu of Google China to Dr Charles Chang of Sohu, both believe that they care the people, the users. Agree! All the business and technology development should be user-oriented, better result for searchers and better turn out for advertisers. We havent heard anything from the NO.1 about this, very likely they will talk about better ADs, just the ADs itself, and nothing to do with user.

3. Mobile! Mobile! Mobile!
We just cant wait any longer to welcome the mobile era for internet. We truely believe that all the handhold eletronic devices will get on wap in the future, or the 3G. So everyone is talking about mobile applicaiton in China Internet Conference 2007.

More in Chinese

To be continued.

Here are two reports about the China Internet Conference 2007 Day one.

China Internet Conference kicks off in Beijing

The 2007 China Internet Conference has kicked off in Beijing. Chinese Vice-Premier Zeng Peiyan addressed Monday’s opening ceremony, noting the rapid development of the internet in China. There are more than 1.3 million portal operators in China, nearly a four-fold increase since the end of 2000. And dot-cn domain names number 6.15 million now, the first time they have exceeded the registered number of dot-coms.

Chinese internet users spent more than 160 billion yuan on the internet in the first half of the year. This makes sense, considering China has over 160 million web users, about an eighth of the population.
P2P services slashed

During the 2007 China Internet Conference, a senior official from the Ministry of Information Industry (MII) accused peer-to-peer (P2P) downloading of occupying too much of the Internet bandwidth, making it impossible to launch other new Internet services.

Han Xia, Deputy Director of Telecommunications Administration Bureau under MII, pointed out that many problems have appeared during the growth of Chinese internet industry. In Han’s opinion, P2P downloading is one of the most serious problems.

Although the number of Chinese broad brand users is below the world’s average level, the P2P fluxes in China are 3 to 4 times of those in the US. According to statistics from Chinese Internet service providers, P2P downloading accounts for 35 to 60 percent of the whole fluxes in the day and 50 to 90 percent during the night. For Chinese users, the Internet is used mainly for downloading movies and music.
