Q Group Ecosphere： the ＂Online Destination＂ of Post-95 College Students

　　At present, there are less than two months left before the postgraduate entrance examination, and the Q group of college students is also increasingly prosperous. Postgraduate students have gone online to seek their own "online home". There are outstanding graduate students in the group and postgraduate institutions to escort candidates.

　　These research groups seem to be isolated coordinate points in the quadrant, but in fact they quietly form a circle. In addition to colleges and universities to build groups for students applying for the exam, there are also "same-city examination and research groups" used by students from various cities to urge each other to learn. In addition, a series of ancillary products have been derived, such as "PubMed Dating Group", "PubMed Parents Exchange Group" and "PubMed Tourism Group", which are fully functional.

　　In the groups spontaneously formed by college students, whether it is postgraduate entrance examination, online games, entrepreneurship, idolize, writing, etc., different Q groups play different functions, always providing college students with opportunities to obtain information and get to know each other, and forming different forms of network ecological circles.

　　Different from the WeChat group that joins by scanning code and inviting friends, Q group can find relevant "tribes" nationwide only by inputting keywords, and it is more flexible in the number of people. It is reported that the maximum number of WeChat groups is 500, and after opening the maximum limit of 2,000 for QQ groups, the number of QQ groups was lifted to 5,000 in 2017, which can be called the "re-expansion" of Q groups and also extended the network ecosystem of students.

　　However, compared with the situation that primary and secondary schools only stay in "class group" and "learning data group", the Q group ecosystem of college students is undoubtedly more complex and diverse.

　　College Students’ Entrepreneurial Groups: Rising "Coin Speculation"

　　In the past, college students’ entrepreneurial groups generally only included "part-time group", "project group" and "investment and financial management group", which was one of the channels for college students to obtain certain living expenses. However, some emerging economic hotspots will largely break the conventional model of entrepreneurial groups.

　　"We are all a group of paranoid college students, but delusion can also become a reality. The blockchain has given us a good enough opportunity. Do you believe it? Just come in! " The introduction of a college student’s entrepreneurial group is quite provocative.

　　Like this, there are countless emerging college students’ blockchain entrepreneurial groups since 2017. As it is advertised, some college students join the group in order to attract partners to do investment projects, while others are to "speculate" and "mine" in partnership. Similarly, they all focus on the most popular hot areas in the entrepreneurial circle in the past year or two. For example, Chen Sifan from Ningxia Normal University said, "If 2017 is the first year of blockchain technology, 2018 will be an outbreak year, and I definitely want to seize this opportunity to make money."

　　In the early stage, the information forwarded by the group was nothing more than all kinds of "potential" digital currency in the eyes of group friends — — Which digital currency is about to go online, how much it will cost, and how much it will earn a month later, all of which are the topics of their daily discussion. As a financial major, Kelvyn Young started a lot of digital currency, and most of the investment amount came from his online loan and part-time job. "I always wanted to hold my favorite currency for a long time, but I sold it every time I was in a hurry to use money. Generally, I couldn’t hold it for a month."

　　Kelvyn Young has joined four groups in order to attract colleagues and organize teams to speculate in coins, but one group after another has been "abolished", and the groups have gradually been screened by advertisements such as Tmall and Meituan coupons. Similarly, many entrepreneurial groups eventually become "advertising groups" or "pyramid schemes".

　　In the interview, the reporter found that fraudulent information with virtual currency as the gimmick frequently appeared. For example, the relevant responsible persons mostly endorsed the "virtual currency" credit by fictional various auras, promised high investment, and used WeChat group or QQ group to forward and promote publicity, and "brainwashed" investors. It is reported that in addition to the possible risks of virtual currency itself, there is still a kind of risk, that is, illegal fund-raising and online pyramid schemes under the banner of "virtual currency" investment. This requires college students who "speculate" to be more vigilant.

　　Certificate strategy group: "adding material" or "injecting water" for resume

　　Similar to the entrepreneurial group that shares blockchain information, the certificate raiders group shares the information and raiders of college students’ competitions nationwide. Enter keywords in the QQ search box, and there are no fewer than 100 such raiders groups, with an average of about 500 people in each group, and the members are mainly college students.

　　Chen Yu, the owner of a certificate strategy group and a student of Zhuhai College of Jilin University, told the reporter that most of them are VIP strategy groups that need to pay to join the group, and she just set up a completely public Q group to give back to the support of a group of "fans" and share the recent college student competitions held all over the country for free.

　　Carefully distinguish, the events shared by these groups also have high and low points.

　　In a certain group, group friends refer to the certificate raiders group as "award group" for short, and define the awards certified by official institutions as "hard core awards", which means that the awards have high gold content and can be obtained. On the contrary, they described some local competitions sponsored by non-governmental organizations as "water injection".

　　But no matter what kind of competition, the title is crowned with the name of "College Student Competition", which is aimed at college students from all over the country. If we don’t go deep into it, most of these "water injection" competitions can be noted as "national college students’ competitions", thus "rising" to national competitions in the resumes of the contestants.

　　Qiguang Wang, a 17th-grade student who has just won the "Excellent Award" in an advertising contest for college students, said frankly that the competition he participated in was not certified by the official organization. "But students in ordinary colleges like me can only rely on these seemingly national competitions without a national competition certificate, which is actually very ‘ Water injection ’ The competition award for the resume ‘ Add some materials ’ Otherwise, there is nothing to write. "

　　The administrator of a strategy group told the reporter, "Most of the strategies we have compiled are the strategies for lower-level rewards in some competitions. If we want to participate in some difficult competitions or get better rankings and awards, it is really not something that our 5 yuan VIP group can solve."

　　Game group: not only "open black" and "eat chicken"

　　Among the Q groups where college students are concentrated, game groups are the most popular and common.

　　Netizen "Ono" is 30 years old this year, but he is a college student the glory of the king game group owner. Talking about the original intention of building a group, he said that colleagues and friends around him hardly play games, and it would be naive to invite people to play together. "Fortunately, it is a good thing to start a college student game group, just like the younger ones ‘ Open black ’ " .

　　Among all the game groups, the "Open Black Group" which brings together the glory of the king fans and the "Eat Chicken Group" which is a Jedi survival player are undoubtedly the most popular. In a group of 4371 college students, group friends are active in the group for almost 24 hours, and every day, they organize "masters" to lead the team to "open the black".

　　It is also a game group, and the national college students’ "Sudoku" (note: a logical game) group is slightly lonely. The group is full of pictures of nine squares, and it will take at least half an hour for someone to reply to a difficult problem. However, Deng Ziyao, a sophomore, is very grateful to his Sudoku group. She just joined the group last year, and now she has reached the level of participating in the national college students’ Sudoku competition. She attributed this obvious progress to the difficult problems and problem-solving ideas shared by Sudoku group every day, which provided her with advanced channels for being a "novice".

　　Perhaps different from what you think, many college students’ game development groups also show the painting style of "serious". Although they are called games, they focus on professional fields such as game planning, art design, model and level making. There is no sign of "opening the black" in the group. As long as irrelevant information such as advertisements and questionnaires appear, group members will be immediately banned for 72 hours. "Because what we want to form is a team with feelings, if you are the one." Group owner Jiao Ke said.

　　"Hi" is online, don’t be "cold" offline.

　　Q groups such as study group, game group and strategy group can be said to be a microcosm of college students’ extracurricular activities. In this virtual and anonymous space, the community trend of college students from all tribes is becoming more and more obvious, forming a huge network ecosystem of college students.

　　In this regard, Duan Zheng, a counselor of China Institute of Labor Relations, believes that the expansion of QQ group functions has produced new cultural phenomena. Lower entry threshold, larger communication platform and easier real-time interaction make post-95 college students happy to "find a home" here and seek a sense of identity in the acquisition and transmission of group information.

　　More specifically, Li Weihua, a teacher at the Center for Positive Psychological Experience of Beihang University, believes that communication on the Internet is more realistic, and the cost of time and space is lower, as well as the cost of emotional and psychological resources. For example, "When communicating face to face, the reaction of the person in front of me has a great influence on me. At this time, I have to think about this person’s real thoughts quickly and make appropriate responses, which requires courage, communication skills and psychological construction. In addition, the anonymity of the virtual world will also give the parties a lot of psychological protection and be relatively more free. "

　　But it has also caused many people’s concerns — — With the younger users of social media such as QQ group, these "online aborigines" are more comfortable in interpersonal communication, but in real communication, they are stumbling, timid, and even bored and afraid of real social communication, preferring to "open their hearts" to the cold screen. As Duan Zheng often sees, students with smooth communication in QQ group often fall into "social fear" in reality, and online personality is very different from offline personality.

　　In this regard, Duan Zheng believes that university teachers should pay attention to students’ ideological trends and hot topics on the Internet, strengthen guidance, and remind students to choose carefully when participating in group culture to avoid causing "social fear".
