Thick doors are trying to reconstruct a thing that is gradually being overlooked - how people “play together in the real world.” Over the past two decades, the Internet has dealt with “links” and “content.” But today, a new problem is emerging: the richer the online entertainment, the more scarce the offline real experience. Short videos, games, and social platforms occupy a lot of time, but real face-to-face interactions between people are decreasing. Xiang Weng, the founder of Rough Gate, was responsible for casual fish products and Alipay B-end products. After many years of Internet experience, he made a less "mainstream" judgment: "AI can replace efficiency, but it can't replace experience.

Start your business with the Event Enrollment tool, but not just the tool. The thick door encourages users to not only be participants, the moderator is not just an organizer, and the activity is not just a single consumption, but a deeper participation.
