Ji zhenyu, tencent deep net, silicon valley, April 11It's not how good zuckerberg is, it's how bad the senators are.After a marathon on two consecutive days, members of congress, after the "torture" Facebook founder and chief executive, Mr Zuckerberg to the outside world left performed "better than expected" impression, Facebook shares even appeared on the first day for the past two years the biggest single-day rise, zuckerberg's personal fortune also jumped almost $3 billion after the end of the day.Zuckerberg congress hall naturally not feeling comfortable place, to prepare for the two hearings, zuckerberg will one day in advance came to Washington, d.c., in early April, chill of Washington still people here are mostly dressed in dark grey coat and solemn, hurrying, here with beautiful warm California is completely two world, it is not he can wear t-shirts, shorts, his wife and child in his backyard barbecue do live online video, chat with the millions of Facebook users easily.He had to put on a blue tailored suit and tie and sit behind a table with his name tag, "Mr. Zuckberg," in a room with dozens of senators and hundreds of reporters for the next five and a half hours of hearings."He was nervous, but he seemed confident," one person at the scene described. "he was a smart guy."Before he took his seat, zuckerberg was surrounded by a wall of dozens of live photographers, his every Angle, every detail of his movements, ruthlessly exposed to the cold lens.But zuckerberg is clearly prepared, he remained sitting on the witness table upper body straight, listen carefully to each problem, with questions from lawmakers for eye contact, when he get rid of the past to answer the question first and "so" the habit of modal particles, but rather to "Senator" (Senator) first, "Congressman" or "Congresswoman" (mp) to call each other, who ask questions and then answer.His desk with his team prepared in advance for him reply the outline, the hearing the break of clearance, the media photographed a page content, a thick stack of paper basic covers all they can foresee lawmakers may asked question, his seat on the thick cushion, may also be the team prepared for him, in order to let him in front of the camera appear larger, more in line with the leaders of in times of crisis.Though sometimes swallow saliva, expression of embarrassing or frequently raised his glass, but zuckerberg appeared in congress, not the past, we are familiar with the gray hoodie, speed fast, "said the young entrepreneurs" move fast and break everything "image, but a well trained, CEO of the electives, it is the leader of a company is in the need of the image.In hearing sitting opposite zuckerberg dozens of members of congress, they have been disappointed, or that people have never got too much expectation for this hearing, dozens of problems exposed these political circles certainly the gap in the 21st century, science and technology circles, and many questions and between them and Mr Zuckerberg, the two sides are in their own context since said the words under the system, appeared a lot of difficult to articulated of embarrassing moments.For example, one lawmaker asked, "how do you keep your business going if users don't have to pay for the services you provide?"Zuckerberg paused for a moment and said, "senator, we sell ads.""Oh, yes.""The senator said."My 13-year-old son Charlie is an active Instagram user and he asked me to make sure he was mentioned today," one mp said."If I send an email through Whatsapp [the facebook-owned messaging app], will that let the advertiser know the message?" asked another.Many of the lawmakers' questions exposed their ignorance of some of the most basic Internet knowledge or the company, with one Twitter user even quipped, "the average age of these lawmakers is 100."Throughout the hearing, lawmakers' questions lacked focus and tended to swirl around irrelevant issues."For" problem by MPS, zuckerberg is completely in accordance with the previous team design strategy, in order to complete the day's tasks: to admit a mistake, apologize, specific issues do not answer yes or no, follow-up to the team, don't do promise, don't deny the current business model, don't act too greedy.Michael Connor, executive director of Open MIC, described zuckerberg's hearing as "squeaky through" rather than "exceptional."The group, which represents Facebook investors, publicly called on Mr. Zuckerberg to resign from all positions at the company a day before the hearing began.Hearing, from Facebook user data spill outburst large area, due to the fact said big data company Cambridge Analytica based on data from Facebook to get a large number of users, precision of political advertising, to influence the political activities, events may involve 87 million Facebook users, most of them located in the United States, these are to cause the attention of Washington.Other key words in the story are "Russian manipulation" and "U.S. presidential election," which have touched on America's national security and core interests.The hearing was inevitable because of their responsibilities to their constituents.But the members of congress who attended the hearing may not even meet the standard for "pass."Hearing is the ultimate goal, in order to make these lawmakers are able to better understand the situation, finally can form at least agree to some existing problems, and solved through the legislative process, although zuckerberg himself during the hearing also explicitly expressed his willing to accept "the right regulatory" attitude, but at least from the point of these two days of the hearing condition, to achieve the purpose of a forlorn hope.Another awkward fact was that most of the nearly 100 lawmakers who attended the hearing had received political donations from Facebook, either directly or indirectly.In total, Facebook has spent $7 million on political donations over the past 12 years, and lawmakers who questioned zuckerberg have received more than 640,000 political donations from Facebook since 2014.Two days of hearings were a Twitter users as "a pattern", not "meaningful", if the first day of the hearing, zuckerberg also show nervous manner from time to time, the next day he absolutely poses, when conducting the entire hearing members proposed a short rest, zuckerberg said, "is no longer a few questions?"Us news network CNN commented that zuckerberg walked away unharmed from the two days of hearings.
