screenshot from the exposure point of view, should be from Tencent flowing a promotional video screenshot. In this regard, Tencent relevant confirmation to reporters, did not receive a response.
It is reported that only 27 million people worldwide Internet, accounts for only one-third, many poor remote areas of the world’s population, do not have the ability to greatly improve the communications infrastructure construction level, we can not set up communications relay tower. The Internet has proven to be an important driving force for economic development, so many Internet companies are hoping to help more people networking.
2014 March foreign media reports, the project is supported by the United States called Outernet Media Development Investment Fund (MDIF) initiated aiming revolutionized communication between people, hundreds of satellites to ensure that the aid plan global weather free WiFi access.
Google in recent years actively want to provide consumers with an Internet connection service, both in the US high-speed fiber-optic local network to launch Google Fiber, or in the global high-altitude balloon Network Services Project Loon, even new companies to join hands in space exploration SpaceX, build space network through microsatellites.
Facebook WiFi is also actively promoting the global strategy, including satellites and unmanned aerial vehicles and other platforms. Facebook think compared to launch a satellite, the solar UAV has a long battery life, and relatively inexpensive features, and does not require the laying of the ground satellite station, solar UAV therefore plays an important role in Facebook’s global WiFi strategy, they launched the “Aquila” (Aquila) of large-scale solar UAV first flew in the UK.
Tencent is China’s largest Internet companies, with the largest number of Internet users, do the same analysis with Google, Facebook, like the ability to help people in poor countries and regions more convenient access to the Internet. But the big news is generally not released by such an informal manner, so this message on Facebook is still unable to confirm the authenticity.
