Sina
Students of Sina Mobile:
The Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, the eleventh is approaching, and we have ushered in another harvest season. Today coincides with the autumn equinox, which is both the beginning of a harvest and the potential for new growth. So, today I want to share with you about the "harvest" and "growth" of Sina Mobile.
I still remember that at the end of 2012, Mr. Cao, chairman of the group, put forward the strategy of "mobile first". Under the guidance of this strategy, we launched the Sina news client in early 2013 and focused on building it as a core product. In 2016, the management supported the development of Sina Mobile. That's why we've had our fast runs and impressive results in the last 5 years. As of last month, QuestMobile data showed that Sina News MAU reached 146 million, and DAU exceeded 83 million, achieving 22 consecutive quarters of rapid growth, ranking among the top three in the industry. At the same time, Sina Mobile's sina news, mobile sina network, PC sina network, Sina blog and other product matrix, monthly ecological traffic reached 580 million, leading the industry.
These gains are inseparable from the joint efforts of all Sina Mobile people. Thank you all for your hard work over the past 8 years. But the achievements only belong to the past, and we need to constantly innovate and evolve ourselves in order to achieve better development in the future "growth". I think that the key to "growth" lies in motivation, and the pursuit of intelligent technology is an important driving force for our "growth", but not all.
Mr. Cao has stressed many times that we must not only continue to strengthen core technology breakthroughs and continuously promote the upgrading of products and services, but also always have a sense of awe for the growing influence of the platform, achieve a balance between the commercial attributes and social attributes of the platform, and actively explore and strengthen platform governance and assume social responsibility. We must also strengthen the main responsibility of the platform, actively expand the mainstream voice, and carry forward and practice the core values of socialism. "In the current 'post-truth' era, promoting the right values is where the value of our achievements lies." We also believe that Sina Mobile should adhere to the principle of "making AI more valuable", which is our long-term belief and practice direction.
So who is on the mission of "making AI more valuable"? I think it should be someone who trains AI behind the scenes. It is the values of every Sina mobile person that determine the values of AI. Therefore, positive values are the principle of all our work. We must always adhere to providing users with "quality" and "taste" information, through continuously amplifying the voice of mainstream media, the mainstream media content as a breakthrough in the algorithm itself mechanism to promote, so that the mainstream media content can cover more audiences, to help users in the harvest of "quality" and "taste" on the basis of continuous enrichment, improve themselves, to achieve personal development of social value and self-worth.
On this basis, our Sina News put forward a new brand slogan "Know the Unknown, See Not See". In the future, we will not only provide news and information media platforms, but also intelligent information platforms based on professional news information, providing information services that go beyond news, and with technical support. We will promote users' exploration and understanding of the world under a larger vision, and grow together with our users.
Finally, thank you again to everyone on Sina Mobile. Let us continue to innovate and work together to create a more brilliant future for Sina Mobile!
Wang Wei
