On April 20th, 360 founder Zhou Hongyi shared a photo of himself shaking hands with Tencent CEO Ma Huateng, affectionately referring to him as an "old friend".
This scene took place at a symposium commemorating the 30th anniversary of the Chinese internet, jointly organized by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Internet Association. The symposium brought together numerous leading figures from the internet industry.
Zhou Hongyi mentioned at the conference that he not only met with several industry leaders and seniors, but also reunited with old friends from the industry such as Ma Huateng, CEO of Sohu Zhang Chaoyang, and founder of Xiaomi Lei Jun.
Reflecting on Weibo, he wrote: "Thirty years of entrepreneurial journey accompanied by the growth of the Internet. They are the pioneers, builders, experiencers, participants of this era, as well as witnesses and beneficiaries."
He also left a suspense: "In the blink of an eye, a meeting and a smile, guess what topic we are discussing?"
Many of us probably still remember vividly: in 2010, Tencent and 360 ignited the "3Q War," escalating rapidly to the point of forcing users to "choose one out of two." This battle lasted for four years, becoming the "first case of anti-unfair competition on the Internet."
Now, seeing the two giants shake hands and smile, it's hard not to feel a sense of nostalgia.
