Help me please ^^

If I use these command in bash shell:
    echo 'abc' | sed 's/b*/1/g'
It would display:
    1a1c1


But when I try it in VIM:
    (open a document, turn into edit mode and simply type 'abc', and then turn into command mode)
    :s/b*/1/g
it would display:
    1a1c

I'm wondering why I get different results(no 1 at the tail when using VIM) through the same way (basic regular expression)...
I think /b*/ would match the null string between 'c' and '$', and a substitution would be taken (just like what 'sed' done above).
