Chapter 1786 The Beautiful Scenery of the Prosperous Age

Yin Jun happens to be in the United States now, so this speech is scheduled for the fourth week of November.

From a time perspective, it is also more appropriate.

European and American people are accustomed to the Christmas and New Year holidays in December, so December is destined to be a leisure time and is not suitable for doing business.

November is approaching the end of the year, which is a good time to review and summarize the year, and also allow the speakers to have sufficient experience to comment on the events of the previous year or longer.

It's just that there are only two weeks left before the scheduled time, and Robert Egger still has a lot to do.

On the one hand, he had to decorate the venue and do a good job in advertising, and on the other hand, he also had to actively invite the remaining 27 speakers.

And advertising shouldn’t be too vulgar.

It's impossible to advertise on TV to get people to listen to Qilin's speech. The style suddenly dropped sharply, and it was exactly the same as listening to a concert. Where can there be such a big style?

You know, those who speak on the stage are all chosen for the moment, and they are real bosses!

If you ask them to tell ordinary people about their feelings and opinions, isn't this a bit undervalued?

Therefore, this advertisement must be cautious and promoted among a specific elite group.

Fortunately, this was a lecture organized by the Kirin Group, and Yin Jun came to give the first lecture, which was a huge advantage.

In terms of inviting speakers, there are naturally many advantages - Yin Jun has come to give a lecture, and you come to continue the lecture. This must be the same level of treatment, which is equivalent to an honor.

In the first session of Qilin Speech, the speech time of the week must not be arranged for the most famous people on the same day, but there must be a reasonable allocation.

Yin Jun also listed 6 candidates in the list, all of whom he would personally invite.

There is Steve Jobs, the beleaguered chairman of Apple, who is in the midst of a power struggle.

Bill Gates, the proud chairman of Microsoft.

There is the mature and steady stock market god Buffett.

There is Stephen King, one of the most famous novelists in the United States.

There is Paul McCartney, one of the lead singers of The Beatles.

There's new Oscar-winning actor Tom Hanks.

Looking at this list, Robert Egger naturally listed them as the main candidates for the remaining six speech days.

Selling tickets and giving away tickets was also an expected success.

As soon as I heard that Yin Jun was the first to give a lecture, the 200 free tickets were snapped up instantly, and all the 1,000 tickets were sold out within half a day.

Then for the remaining six days, because these six are also world-famous figures, the tickets for free were given away or sold out as quickly as the tickets for sale.

Just like time and TED speeches, the fees for Qilin speeches set by Yin Jun are not low.

Each ticket is 10,000 US dollars, which allows you to attend four speeches in one day. Food and accommodation are not included, and all expenses are paid by yourself.

Of course, this daily income of 10 million US dollars will not go into the pockets of the Kirin Group, but will go into the charity foundation and be donated to poor rural areas in China to develop their education.

As for the invited speakers, the round-trip air tickets, food and accommodation expenses, venue rental, etc. are all paid for by the Kirin Group itself.

Yin Jun's move was something he had already thought about.

First of all, the ticket fee must not be used for profit, otherwise the price will drop a lot immediately.

Because those guests came to give speeches, do you think they were attracted by your round-trip air tickets and the package of food and accommodation?

Firstly, they are giving you Yin Jun face, and secondly, they are taking the opportunity to expand their influence and improve their own reputation.

But if you charge a fee, the people who buy tickets to enter are paying for consumption, and the whole meaning is different, as if they are making money from giving speeches!

How much money can you make from a speaking engagement?

It’s so bad to describe someone’s character!

Therefore, in previous TED conferences, they wisely did not pocket the ticket money, but used it to pay for various expenses in the operation process - venue rental, guest transportation expenses, etc.

Yin Jun was even better and donated all of it, telling everyone that the proceeds from your speeches and the money you paid for tickets were all used for charity.

It can be said that everyone is happy to have such a good reputation and gain something from each other!

And with this money, Yin Jun will not imitate those idiots and ask for worldly care. He will definitely donate it to the poor children in his motherland.

You can't even take care of your own family, but you still go around the world to do charity. If you aren't a fed-up idiot, what are you?

Robert Egger's organizational skills are indeed commendable.

When the first speech of Qilin Speech was officially held on Saturday, November 24th at a theater in Los Angeles, everything was so orderly.

The eye-catching "Qilin Speech" sign outside the venue can be seen hundreds of meters around.

The well-dressed reception staff, strict security system, reasonable internal layout, various audio and lighting equipment... etc. all make people feel very formal.

Even before the lecture began, there was a small tea party for guests invited with complimentary tickets to gather and chat.

These are also a group of elites who have achieved great success in the United States. They rarely get together on weekdays, but they each find their own small circle and chat happily.

When the time reached 9:15, everyone entered the theater one after another.

At this time, many people who bought tickets to enter were already sitting inside.

At 9:30, the lights quickly turned on on the stage, and everyone who had been talking quietly just now suddenly fell silent.

The next moment, when a young man wearing a casual sweater and slacks walked onto the stage with a headset, everyone applauded in unison.

Yes.

They are expressing their respect for the world's richest man and their respect for this genius.

Yin Jun smiled and put his hands together into fists, thanking everyone for their applause.

However, when people calmed down again, the young man smiled and spoke, "Thank you everyone for coming to Qilin's speech, and thank you for your enthusiasm. Now is the first session of Qilin's speech, and what I say on this stage will be heard by those around me. The video recorder faithfully records it as future video data for everyone to discuss and understand.

Looking at everyone in the audience, there must be few younger than me, right? As your junior and younger generation, I stand here to give you a speech. To be honest, I feel very proud and have a strong sense of pride.

However, I also feel that this is natural! Because apart from me, is there another person in this world who is qualified to be the first to give a speech to you on this podium? Of course not! "

"Wow..."

"Ha ha……"

Among the people below, some were surprised, some laughed, and some admired Yin Jun's outspokenness.

But none of them felt that Yin Jun was too arrogant.

Because this is the fact.

"This speech conference is my idea. My original intention is actually not very complicated. I just want to talk to you, including what you want to know, and what I want you to know." Yin Jun smiled. Laughing, strolling on the stage, "For example... the future!"

Listening to this, countless people held their breath and concentrated their attention, for fear that they would miss any words.

Aren't many people coming here just to gain some insights from Yin Jun's speech, or to directly get some information and inspiration so that they can develop better in the future?

"In the past 200 years, human history has undergone tremendous changes due to the development of science and technology. If calculated every fifty years, it will be an earth-shaking change. In your eyes, the next five years will In ten years, what kind of future will it be like?" The young man asked eloquently: "What should it be like? Can we already land on Mars, or can we colonize the moon?

Talking about these may be a bit far. I don’t have the spirit of lifelong research like scientists. Unfortunately, I can’t contribute to science, so let’s talk about the changes that will happen in our lives!

The next fifty years, in my opinion, must be an era of shortening distances. This shortening of distance not only refers to the distance in our space, but also the distance in time! 100 years ago, people would not have imagined that telephone lines could connect to every corner of the world. What cannot be connected now is because the effort and reward are not proportional, not because we cannot connect!

So now, I can tell you seriously that in the next fifty years, the development of network and wireless technology will bring about earth-shaking changes in everyone's lives! Now we can get news from all over the world through the World Wide Web and Kirin search, but is this enough? not enough!

In the future, we will definitely be able to use more advanced networks and wireless technologies to allow people in the United States and China to communicate face-to-face via video; through the Internet, people in India can communicate thousands of miles away. Plus, grab products from our Black Friday shopping extravaganza! In the future, our payment can completely abandon the backward method of credit card and adopt more advanced overall portable mobile payment!

In the future, we can also have the most outstanding intelligent technology! For any appliance in the home, we can use voice commands to command the air conditioner to turn on, reserve the time for the rice cooker to cook, and command the sweeping robot when to clean! In terms of logistics and transportation, we can skillfully use smart drones to transport goods and carry passengers. We can wait on the street, waiting for smart driverless cars to park next to us and take us where we want to go!

That’s not all I said, there are more exciting changes waiting for us. In the future, we will usher in such a coveted era. What do we need to do? Of course, by constantly investing, not only can you develop more new technologies, but you can also make positive changes in your mentality. We must firmly believe that the future era of technological explosion will definitely come! Only when you are well prepared can you better adapt to it and enjoy this great era!

I hope that fifty years later, I can still stand on this podium and you can all be here. When the time comes, tell me whether what I said has come true, and how many wonderful moments you have enjoyed in it!

I'm looking forward to this day!

thank you all! ! "

After Yin Jun finished speaking, the scene was silent for a while.

But when they woke up from the picture of the future painted by Yin Jun, the audience immediately burst into warm applause.

Everyone clapped their hands and stood up.

They didn't speak, but there was excitement and longing on their faces.

What a surprise!

What a surprise!

Yin Jun actually made such a clear prediction about the future! !

He said it so seriously and firmly, as if he could already see the future! !

Such a prosperous and beautiful scenery is really exciting! ! !
