Can a scientific and technological invention, such as the invention of computer, be supported by the public and become fashionable, and lead the development of social culture? In addition to the scientific and technological content, it is more important to see what aspirations this scientific and technological invention has helped mankind achieve and what psychological needs it has met. Computers can do some mathematical calculations and intellectual work instead of human brain; The emergence of the computer Internet has greatly improved the way people send and receive information, and has greatly met the psychological needs of people to "obtain information".

Each unit likes to use the word "center" when naming its own unit, for example“ ** Central Hospital "“ ** Research Center ". This naming expresses a childish idea in people's hearts: I am the origin of coordinates, and I am the center of the universe. In real life, the supreme ruler is such a "personal center". The emergence of the Internet, to some extent, has greatly weakened this "personal center".

In the early days of the Internet, there will be some "portal sites", search engine sites, and information distribution centers, such as "Sina. com", "Baidu. com", etc. These websites have become the "personal center" in the virtual network world, and others have gathered on the portal websites or created their own websites. Later, with "Blog", everyone went to famous websites to create their own "Blog Garden" and had a world of personal display.

Now it is "Mobile Internet" I personally think it should be called the "WeChat era", because everyone holds their mobile phones from time to time and brushes "WeChat" with their heads down. All kinds of information are passed on among friends and within the group (circle) of friends, and affectionate exchanges are taking place. WeChat has greatly met everyone's personal needs for "self existence". At the same time, in the WeChat world, no one is more "personal centered" than others.

WeChat has created a unique space for us, which is different from the "social public platform". As a "social public platform", netizens don't know each other, so they just exchange information. However, "WeChat" means we know each other and we are friends. Some words can be said "close the door". After everyone publishes WeChat, they can get a "timely response" from their friends, which greatly meets the needs of kinship and sense of self existence.

WeChat can make people feel more "self existence", have more "free and independent" (virtual) space, temporarily get rid of "power oppression", be able to say more true thoughts, help to achieve "true self", reduce self repression, become more self honest, and there will be greater equality and respect between people. With the expansion of WeChat circle of friends, the society will enter a new era of equality, democracy and freedom.

I believe that the emergence of WeChat technology will certainly promote China to move towards a more democratic, free and equal civilization.
