Chapter 357: The number of chat users exceeds 100 million, the tragedy of WeChat!

"Noble?" Wang Yi smiled.

Now I am Duan Fangzhou's noble man, but once Duan Fangzhou becomes the vice president of China Unicom Group, it will be hard to say.

In short, the cooperation with Duan Fangzhou has made Duan Fangzhou's outstanding performance, and furthermore, for Wang Yi, there are only advantages and no disadvantages.

There is no other way. He comes from a grassroots background and does not have a strong background or network resources, so he can only create and cultivate resources by himself.

For example, Zhao Huan became the vice president of the branch.

That is to say, Wang Yi is not short of money. If he is short of money, just say hello to Zhao Huan, Pudong Development Bank's funds can be quickly approved.

Even if the amount is not small, or even somewhat irregular, it can still be done.

The same is true here with Duan Fangzhou.

After rejecting Duan Fangzhou's invitation to hold another show, Wang Yi went directly back to Song Sining's home.

Ma De, these leaders of state-owned enterprises are really good at drinking!

Wang Yidu has a big head.

Perhaps anticipating this situation, Song Sining returned home early in the afternoon and cooked hangover porridge for Wang Yi, which made Wang Yi feel much better.

In the evening, after Wang Yi sobered up, he chatted with Song Sining.

Song Sining was a little puzzled: "China Mobile is the strongest at the moment, why don't we choose China Unicom?"

Wang Yi smiled slightly: "Choosing China Unicom to cooperate has four levels of strategic significance."

"The first level is Southern Telecom and Northern China Unicom. Northern companies cannot do without China Unicom."

With this cooperation, the network engineering of Meiyou Technology Park, Xingyi Skyscraper, and Wujie Technology Park will no longer be a problem in the future.

Duan Fangzhou says hello, and the people below will do their best and give Wang Yi as much discount as possible.

For example, the cloud data center project under construction has extremely high network requirements and requires the laying of special optical cables.

If it were before, it would be indispensable to arrange for subordinates to treat the person in charge of the other party to drinks and business entertainment...

But now, with Duan Fangzhou's relationship, the corresponding person in charge will rush to provide services to Xingyi Technology.

There is no way, human society is like this.

Song Sining nodded: "Yes, opening a company in the north is really inseparable from China Unicom. What about the second floor!"

"The second consideration is that China Mobile's 3G is too poor. It will take time to popularize the 4G era. At the moment, China Unicom's 3G is the best solution."

"That's it." Song Sining suddenly realized.

Wang Yi continued: "As for the third level of strategic significance, it is to use the Star God Card to reduce the traffic costs and thresholds for Xingyi Technology users, so that Xingyi Technology users can embrace the mobile Internet as soon as possible."

"With the free traffic of Xingyi series applications, we can attract more users, expand our user base, and increase the length of time users use Xingyi series software, thereby achieving both growth in the number of users and revenue scale."

"As for the fourth level of consideration, it is to suppress Apple!"

"What? If you cooperate with China Unicom, can you still suppress Apple?"

Song Sining was startled, and then suddenly realized: "By the way, the iPhone 4s is the best-selling phone under China Unicom's contract contract right now."

"That's right!" Wang Yi nodded.

Last year's iPhone 4 contract machine was originally won by China Mobile.

This year, mobile 3G was too difficult to use, so Apple abandoned mobile and chose to cooperate with China Unicom.

Therefore, in addition to Apple's own sales channels in Xia Guo, China Unicom contract phones also account for a large proportion.

Now that Xingyi Technology has cooperated with China Unicom, Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro have become Unicom contract machines. This will definitely have a serious impact on the iPhone 4s.

The simplest thing is that the orders for provincial China Unicom contract phones are limited. If you place an order of 700,000 for Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro, then the corresponding order for iPhone 4s will be 700,000 less.

In the future, a large number or even all of the posters and showcases for iPhone 4s in China Unicom’s business halls will be replaced by Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro.

The contract phone packages promoted by the shopping guide will also change from iPhone 4s contract phone packages to Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro contract phone packages!

In addition, the iPhone 4s is already slow-selling, while the Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro are mid-range phones starting at RMB 3,000 and high-end phones starting at RMB 5,000. They perfectly fit different consumer groups and are hot-selling nationwide!

As you can imagine, shopping guides are more willing to recommend Xingyi phones, and consumers are more willing to buy Xingyi phones.

As one goes and the other goes, the already sluggish sales of iPhone 4s in China will only make things worse.

The already hot sales of Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro will only get better.

The cooperation with China Unicom is equivalent to replacing the iPhone contract phone with the Xingyi mobile phone contract phone, further grabbing the iPhone's domestic market share and survival space.

This level of strategic significance must be considered.

"It turns out that cooperating with China Unicom can not only achieve the best experience in the 3G era, but also curb the domestic sales of iPhone 4s. The chairman is wise."

Song Sining was full of emotions. If she had made a decision, she would definitely choose the mobile company with the largest user base.

But if that's the case, I'm afraid it's really over.

After all, Mobile 3G is really a drag, Apple has abandoned Mobile, and there is no need for Xingyi Technology to cooperate.

Wang Yi smiled slightly: "But when China Mobile starts the 4G era, we can deepen our cooperation with China Mobile. As for now, if China Mobile and Telecom come to your doorstep, they can also accept it as a contract phone. But if you want to customize a mobile phone card, forget it. Let's wait until the 4G era.

.”

"Okay." Song Sining remembered it firmly, and then looked at Wang Yi, her eyes becoming charming: "Qingming Festival will be here soon, do you want to return to the imperial capital after Qingming Festival?"

It's rare for Wang Yi to come back, so Song Sining naturally hopes that if Wang Yi can stay a few more days, she can also spend a few more days with Wang Yi in their world.

As time went by, Song Sining found that she was becoming more and more attracted to Wang Yi and wished she could see him every day when she woke up.

"Qingming Festival..." Wang Yi nodded: "Okay, then we will go back after Qingming Festival. Spend more time with my President Song!"

"Well, you're the best!" Song Sining was in a good mood and offered her a sweet kiss.

Then he leaned down.

Let Wang Yi enjoy Song's saliva chicken again.

The taste is really wonderful.

Wang Yi was in a good mood and made up his mind to treat this girl who loved him deeply.

From the past life to this life, everything has changed. The only thing that remains unchanged is Song Sining's feelings for him.

Just as Wang Yi and Song Sining were having an in-depth exchange of views, a piece of news became a hot search topic:

[At the end of March, the number of Changchao users exceeded 100 million! 】

For a time, the entire Internet was in a sensation, and public opinion exploded:

"What? Chatting users have exceeded 100 million? Oh my God, how long has it been?"

“Chancha was released on New Year’s Day, and in just three months, the number of users exceeded 100 million! It’s awesome, it’s so awesome, WeChat cried and fainted in the toilet.”

"Hahaha, WeChat is really embarrassing. I got up early and rushed to the evening market."

"There is no way, the first version released by Changchao is better and more powerful than the version released by WeChat a year ago."

"Yes, all functions are launched first on Changchao, and WeChat will follow up after one or two months. Others cannot follow up, and fall behind step by step. They are not as useful as Changchao."

“Chanchao has released functions such as local travel and local food for a long time. WeChat has not copied it yet, so users will definitely use Changchao!”

"The latest version of WeChat is now at the same level as Changchao was two months ago. It is lagging behind, so I switched to WeChat."

“It feels like WeChat has been led by the nose. It’s all because of Changchat’s fault. WeChat immediately followed up and started copying. But unfortunately, when WeChat finally copied it, Changchat launched new features. WeChat could only

Keep copying..."

"One step behind, and every step behind. WeChat is useless, and it deserves that the number of chat users exceeds 100 million."

“Friends around me have given up WeChat and switched to Changchat.”

"The number of chat users has exceeded 100 million in three months, and there is definitely a bright future. WeChat is definitely not a rival, and even QQ feels like Alexander."

“Chanchat has already overtaken WeChat, and I look forward to the day when Changchao overturns QQ.”

"Will there ever be such a day? QQ has 600 million users!"

"So what if there are 600 million users? There are as many trumpets as dogs, and the real active users are probably not even 300 million."

"This data is reliable. After all, how many Internet users are there in our country?"

"The 100 million users of Changchat are quite real. You can only register one Changchat account with a mobile phone number. If you want to open a small account, you have to buy two mobile phone cards, which is too expensive."

"In this case, it is only a matter of time before Changchao and QQ are replaced."

"Definitely, Chat is about socializing with acquaintances. I look forward to the new features of Chat."



Looking at this hot search, the people at Xingyi Technology were in a good mood, and the employees at Meiyou Technology were also very excited.

But Brother Ma, who was about to go to bed, looked livid: "In three months, the number of users has exceeded 100 million, and even the number of monthly active users has exceeded 100 million. It's scary, it's really scary!"

Changchat users need to register with a mobile phone number, and only one Changchat account can be registered with a mobile phone number.

Therefore, the user base of Changchao is very low. 100 million users means 100 million active users.

It’s not like QQ’s current 600 million users, but the number of truly active users will probably be cut in half.

Ma Dong's expression changed drastically, and he immediately dialed Zhang Long's phone number:

"Lao Zhang, do you understand that we can chat about the number of users exceeding 100 million?"

Zhang Long sighed: "I understand, Chairman, we lost."

The corner of Xiao Ma's mouth twitched: "..."

You gave up before I even got angry. How can this be done?

Is it possible that I still need to comfort you?

The corner of Xiao Ma's mouth twitched: "How many users does our WeChat have now?"

“WeChat has 80 million registered users.”

"So many!" Xiao Ma was startled: "Then if QQ attracts a wave of traffic, won't it be able to exceed 100 million? It's not bad in terms of face."

Zhang Long frowned slightly: "It's useless, Chairman, we have 80 million registered users, but there are only 30 million active users left."

Brother Ma was silent: "..."

"The 50 million registered users have all become Changchao users."

Xiao Ma's face turned livid: "!!!"

The positioning, functions, and functions of Changchat and WeChat are highly overlapping.

Although WeChat started a year earlier, it did very poorly.

Changchao started late, but the first version overwhelmed WeChat’s efforts for more than a year, and it continued to lead with new innovations.

So much so that WeChat can only follow Changchao and keep copying.

In this case, how do users choose?

Naturally, many people gave up WeChat and switched to Chat.

As a result, more than 50 million WeChat users gave up WeChat completely and switched to Changchao collectively, making Changchao's user base exceed 100 million.

??????55.??????

No wonder Zhang Long, who has always refused to accept anyone, bluntly said that WeChat failed.

The situation has developed to this point, and it has indeed failed.

With only 30 million active users left, WeChat can basically enter the ICU, unable to withstand the crazy development of Changchao.

"Alas! It's difficult to handle." Ma Dong sighed.

Zhang Long was even more decisive: “Otherwise, Chairman, let’s give up WeChat!”

Zhang Long looked gloomy, he really couldn't fight anymore.

Chatting is too intense!

There are so many new features coming out so quickly and so well that even WeChat can’t copy them!

Instead of continuing to struggle, you are just following Changchao to eat ashes and humiliating yourself.

However, Xiao Ma shook his head: "Don't give up, WeChat is still valuable! Keep working hard."

"WeChat still has value?" Zhang Long's face changed slightly, and then he smiled bitterly: "Chairman, the value of WeChat still existing is to serve as a moat for QQ, blocking free chat for QQ, right?"

Zhang Long knew it very well.

As long as WeChat continues to exist, even if it cannot do Chat, it can still be used as a part of Chat users.

Without these users, it will be even more difficult for Changchao to catch up with or even surpass QQ.

This is the only reason WeChat exists at the moment, to serve as cannon fodder for QQ.

Director Ma sighed and said earnestly: "Mr. Zhang, the Goose Factory has invested a lot in WeChat. WeChat should repay the Goose Factory!"

Zhang Long nodded: "This...I understand, Director Ma, I will promote the new version of WeChat as soon as possible, continue to copy...continue to catch up and chat!"

"Very good!" Ma Dong said meaningfully: "Mr. Zhang, as long as WeChat can continue to curb the development of Changchao and divide the users of Changchao, you will have made a great contribution! Now that WeChat has failed, QQ must not be used by Changchao.

Beyond, social is our foundation!”

"Yes! I will go all out!" Zhang Long promised, but he knew very well that WeChat would not be able to hold on for much longer.

In three months, WeChat lost 50 million users to Changchao.

How long can the remaining 30 million users last?

When a once popular game is abandoned by most people, then the game is not far away from being discontinued.

In essence, social software is the same as games.

WeChat is currently abandoned by most users and is not far from bankruptcy.

Even if R&D continues, it will only serve as a moat for QQ and cannon fodder for sniping and chatting!

This is a battle that must be lost and must be fought!

Zhang Long looked gloomy and could only sigh helplessly: "WeChat has gone the way of Mi Liao after all!"

Director Ma smiled slightly: "Lao Zhang, don't be discouraged. Even if it is the moat of QQ, the headquarters will continue to invest in WeChat. As long as you persist, there may be a day when the clouds clear and the moon shines!"

"Can the clouds open and the moon shine?" Zhang Long smiled bitterly: "Chairman, will such a day happen?"

"Look at you, as long as you don't give up and don't give up, eventually... there is hope." Ma Dong said in a deep voice, but felt a little guilty in his heart.

He still strongly supports WeChat, but he uses WeChat to fight against Changchao and divide Changchao users to protect QQ.

As for WeChat, if the clouds are clear and the moon is clear, it will become bigger and stronger, and we can chat freely...

Chairman Ma didn’t even believe it!

But in order to stabilize Zhang Long, all we can do is draw on the pie and encourage...

"Okay, then I'll try my best..."

Zhang Long took a deep breath and hung up the phone, but his whole person was extremely complicated.

"Wang Yi, Wang Yi, meeting you is WeChat's tragedy, and it is even more tragic for me, Zhang!"

“If it weren’t for you and Changchat, WeChat would probably have over 100 million users now, right?”

"well!"

With a long sigh, Zhang Long looked out the window.

The night is dark and there is no light to move forward.

But Meiyou Technology is a different story.

The entire Changchao department held a video conference again.

But not for work, but for celebration!

"You said that if the number of users of Changchao exceeds 100 million, will Chairman Wang personally reward us?"

"It should be possible. After all, we have destroyed WeChat. It just so happens that Director Wang is in Jeju right now. He might come tomorrow."

"It's possible, we can be considered a meritorious department."

"Working in Xingyi Technology gives me a sense of accomplishment. Let's talk about the department. It will definitely be the T0 department in the future!"

"Haha, I just graduated and accidentally entered Meiyou Technology, and then joined the Changliao development team, and then successfully became gold-plated. I'm so lucky, hahaha."

"Not bad, you have succeeded in gold plating, and you can change jobs next."

"Job hopping? Where else can you go after leaving Xingyi Technology? Just kidding, there is no better company than Xingyi Technology."

"Where is your partner? Isn't she the eldest lady of Gusu? Don't you go to find him? Didn't she say that if you don't go to Gusu City, you won't get married?"

"Love is not tied. Women will only affect my speed of typing code. Even if I break up, I will never give up my job at Xingyi Technology."

"That's right, men, career comes first!"

"If you put love first and give up your career, you will find that when your career is gone, your love will wither."

"But if your career comes first, even if you don't have love, you will be so poor that only money is left, and you can meet new love at any time."

"You've learned a lesson, Brother Du, my career comes first and making money comes first."

"Yes, make money well, save money well, and one day I will take you to Hong Kong Romance!"

"..."

Cai Zisong was speechless: "Stop talking nonsense, don't mislead the newcomers, they are only 22! Go to bed and get to the department early tomorrow to continue promoting the next business segment!"

"yes!"

"Sleep!"

"install!"

Everyone went offline one after another.

Sure enough, early the next morning, Wang Yi came to Meiyou Building and went straight to the Chat Department.

The core confidential business of Changchao must be kept strictly confidential before it is launched, so Wang Yi left it to close veterans such as Cai Zisong from Jeju.

Cai Zisong is a man of great strength, good character, and powerful abilities. He has been highly regarded by Wang Yi since the development stage of Meiyou.

This time we chatted about development and did a great job again.

Wang Yi plans to give him a heavy responsibility.

For example, the vice president and technical director of Xingyi Technology's Shandong headquarters is handed over to Cai Zisong.

As for the president of the Shandong Province headquarters, Song Sining still holds the concurrent position.

Arrange a few more reliable vice presidents to assist her.

Of course, after this period of development, many outstanding talents have emerged at the Imperial Capital headquarters.

Wang Yi has always asked the assessment department to secretly observe, assess, and evaluate.

Anyone who has a promising future, ability, and good character will enter the President's Plan.

Later, they will be assigned to provincial headquarters and entrusted with important responsibilities.

Rather than poaching some management personnel from BAT, Wang Yi prefers his own people trained by Xingyi Technology.

If all management positions are given to outsiders, their old employees will definitely be disappointed, but major companies don't care about this.

For no other reason, they only think about how to get rid of these old employees and replace them with low-cost new employees.

But Wang Yi is not so cold. At Xingyi Technology, there is no bad habit of laying off employees and dismissing students at the age of 35.

On the contrary, as long as your abilities are online and your performance is outstanding, you can work to 53 with no problem.

But if he really can't take it anymore and his performance is not up to standard, Wang Yi will also arrange to be transferred to a relatively relaxed second-tier department for the sake of the old employees. Although the salary will be reduced, the work will be easy and there will be no mid-life crisis.

Can't find a job after being laid off.

It can be said that at Xingyi Technology, as long as you work for five or ten years, you can save a lot of savings.

After the age of 35, whether you retreat to the second line and continue to struggle, or you continue to struggle on the front line, you can have a brilliant future.

But if you become addicted to pornography, gambling and drugs and squander all the hard-earned money you earned when you were young, then there is no hope.

This kind of employee is also the type that Wang Yi immediately lays off.

This kind of person is an unstable person. Once all his savings are spent, he will easily take risks and sell company information in exchange for profits.

This kind of unstable element is the one who should be fired, not those over 35 years old.

Wang Yi looked around the entire Changcha department and smiled slightly: "Thank you for your hard work. Changcha has over 100 million users, which is inseparable from everyone's efforts! This year, in the entire Changcha department, all employees will receive two extra months of year-end bonuses! If the number of Changcha users reaches 100 million at the end of the year,

Let’s talk about active users exceeding 200 million, plus two months of year-end bonuses!”

Hearing this, everyone was excited.

Two extra months of year-end bonus means that the original two months of year-end bonus can be paid to four months!

If the number of active users exceeds 200 million, it will be a 6-month year-end bonus!

The developers at Inspur next door have a salary between 2,500 and 3,500, which is already in the high-paying T0 echelon of Jeju.

The salary of Jeju Meiyou Technology developers is between 3,000-4,500, which is 20% higher than that of competitors!

This salary is higher than IBM's salary.

In this way, if you get another 4 to 6 months of year-end bonus, you can get another 20,000 yuan, which is really great.

You know, the current average income in Jeju is only more than 20,000 yuan a year.

The year-end bonus of the friend business is only one or two months.

It can only be said that the treatment given by Wang Yi is too high.

The monthly salary is higher than that of international giants. Friends and businessmen want to sue Wang Yi for maliciously increasing his salary.

Now they are offering year-end bonuses of two or three times to their friends, which is simply crazy.

However, it is precisely because of this that no employee of Xingyi Technology would consider leaving their jobs, even if their long-distance relationship breaks up.

Regardless of whether you want to change jobs, it’s hard to find a better salary than Xingyi Technology.

It's basically over.

For example, if you work well in the Changchao department, you will get a salary of 18 yuan a year, more than 70,000 yuan, which is two or three times the average salary in Jeju!

"Thank you, Chairman!" Everyone applauded, very excited.

Wang Yi waved his hand: "With me, salary is not an issue, nor is year-end bonus. As long as you have outstanding performance, everything is possible!"

"Okay, let's talk about the progress of the service account, subscription account, and enterprise account?"

"Yes!" Cai Zisong responded and spoke eloquently: "Chairman, in the past few months, our Changchao department has contacted many organizations and departments, and finally opened many service accounts. We have logged in to Changchao one after another and started testing.

"

"Some enterprise accounts have also been opened. Subscription accounts are also being cultivated. Many Weibo Vs are willing to chat about certification and opening accounts."

Wang Yi nodded: "Very good, let's move forward quickly and complete the final test. After a while, the official account function will be officially launched!"

At that time, it can be released together with the Star God Card, Gaode Card, and Ele.me Card!

Grab tens of millions more users!
