Recently, at the meeting of the United Nations High Level Group on digital cooperation, Ma Yun made another golden sentence, saying that he was just a computer beginner and could only send and receive e-mail on a computer, which made the audience cry out disbelief.
During the talks, someone asked Ma Yun what kind of digital citizen he is. Ma Yun said: "although I have worked on the Internet for 25 years, I can only send and receive e-mail by computer. I think I am a beginner in the digital age."
He also believes that 99% of people, like themselves, are still beginners in the digital age after 25 years of Internet development.
This is not the first time Ma Yun has stated that he can only use computers to send and receive e-mail. Baidu can search the earliest statement. It is suspected that in 2011, Ma Yun said that he would only start email, and Ma Yun also repeated this sentence on many occasions, including domestic TV interviews, APEC speeches in Singapore, and Starbucks employee conference.
In other words, Ma Yun was at the level of 'sending and receiving e-mail' as early as 8 years ago. It is not easy to keep the computer operation level stable in 8 years.
