What are the characteristics of the Internet industry? What do Internet companies mainly do?

According to the report "Interpretation of Internet Characteristics in China" by Boston Consulting Group, Internet users in China are more grassroots, more mobile, and more fond of the new and hate the old. As a result, the Internet industry in China is characterized by rapid and fierce competition, high economic activity, great fluctuation, low enterprise survival rate and many overnight fame.

Fast hardware update is a feature of the Internet industry. Take Android phones as an example. Newly launched phones are often outdated in less than one year. Lead to a decline in user experience until users can't bear it.

As a result, many years after the birth of smart phones, more and more people have developed the habit of "using a mobile phone for one year".
