"Feizi, what's wrong is that Tencent really went too far this time!"
"Tencent is completely planning to cut off our livelihood!" Xu Jiahao said angrily.
Wang Zhengfei said nothing with a sullen face. Xu Jiahao also talked about the specific situation on the phone, which was enough for Wang Zhengfei to determine the whole story.
The unexpected rise of Renren in less than half a year has attracted the attention of major domestic Internet giants. Faced with the huge market cake of social networks, the major giants cannot bear it. The best way is to acquire it.
With the acquisition of Renren, based on the foundation laid by Renren and their strong strength as promotion, it is only a matter of time before they dominate the social network market. However, Wang Zhengfei’s attitude is very firm and he will never sell out Renren, no matter what.
It doesn't matter how much money the other party pays.
Although the major giants are salivating, they are still a little helpless about Wang Zhengfei's resolute attitude. Fortunately, Renren has not had a big impact on the current structure. It is not intolerable, but it is just a pity.
.
However, Tencent's recent direct launch of Tencent QQ school network has directly threatened the survival and development of Renren. It can be said that it is a matter of life and death.
Renren is not too weak now. It has 2.5 million real-name registered users, which can be said to be a very huge number. However, when facing this behemoth with over 100 million users, it is still just a newcomer.
Just a toddler.
In the past life, Tencent has almost become a public enemy on the Internet. In China's Internet market, there are well-known ruthless characters in every field. Portals include **, Sohu, and NetEase, searches include Baidu, Google, and online games include Shanda and Jiu.
City, casual games include Lianzhong, e-commerce C2C includes Taobao, eBay, instant messaging includes msn, yahoo...
However, these ruthless players in China's Internet industry and even the entire IT industry have a common enemy, and that is Tencent.
Tencent no longer counts how many enemies it has. In addition to making instant messaging tools, it is also quietly testing search engines. Its online mall "Paipai" directly faces Taobao. More importantly, its information portal strategy directly faces Taobao.
Refers to Sohu and **.
Ma Huateng publicly declared: "Wireless has a market value of more than 10 billion yuan, and we must enter it; online games have a market value of more than 7 billion yuan, and Tencent cannot give up; advertising has a market value of more than 3 billion yuan, and Tencent cannot give up; Tencent cannot give up on search.
E-commerce." Tencent dreams of "unifying the world for thousands of years."
Basically, it can be said that Tencent will have a hand in everything that can make money. Wang Xing, CEO of Meituan.com, said the problem: "Is there any business that Tencent does not do?"
Wang Zhengfei now also wants to curse: Tencent is a "dog day"!
Wang Zhengfei should have thought that such a day would come. Because in the history of China's Internet development, Tencent has almost never missed any Internet feast. It always followed suit at the beginning, then imitated it in detail, and then surpassed it decisively.
Basically, Tencent has become synonymous with copycats. From games to information, everything that can be copied has become copycats. Now the target is directly aimed at the new Renren.com, which makes Wang Zhengfei feel depressed.
If an ordinary giant, even Baidu, even a giant like ** dares to get involved in the jobs reserved by Renren, there will only be a dead end, because users have an inertial mindset, and they monopolize most of the college students on Renren.
As a user, if you don't fit in with others and don't keep up with the times, you will be isolated. Wang Zhengfei is not afraid at all.
But it is also because of inertia that Tencent is the most terrifying and has the title of market terminator.
Tencent is too sticky and its industrial layout has been formed. The number of registered users exceeds 100 million, the number of active users exceeds 50 million, and the number of simultaneous online users exceeds 10 million, making Tencent QQ the undisputed overlord of the domestic IM market and in an absolute monopoly position. No matter you
Whether you watch news from ** or NetEase, whether you play games from Shanda or Ninetowns, there will be a QQ client on your computer. They have a strong dependence on QQ.
And 80% of the 2.5 million real-name registered users of Renren are also QQ users. Relatively speaking, it is much easier to give up Renren than to give up QQ. After all, if you give up Renren, you still have a school with strong potential.
Internet, but after giving up qq, there is almost no other way to contact old friends. To a certain extent, qq is irreplaceable, and Renren originally had this characteristic, but compared with Tencent, it is
You can give up.
This is the same as the 3Q war in later generations. The arrogant and domineering 360, which claimed to have 200 million users, met an even more arrogant one, QQ, which claimed to have one billion users. In the end, it took a long time to fight, but the users were the unlucky ones.
Substitutability, vs. substitutability!
Wang Zhengfei suddenly had an idea and said: "Since Tencent is not prepared to let us live, we can't just sit back and let him strangle us to death. We have to fight back!"
"Tell me how to fight back!" Xu Jiahao was also holding back his anger this time. His feelings for Renren were no less than Wang Zhengfei's. Renren was almost under his nose and under his careful care.
What has grown to this point is just like his own child. It is his first work and his pride. Now someone wants to strangle it. This is something Xu Jiahao absolutely cannot bear.
"We still have a large amount of surplus funds, about 30 million yuan. Originally, I planned to take it slow, but now time waits for no one, and we must do it as soon as possible!"
"First, we must speed up the recruitment of students from major universities to our Renren network!"
"Yes!" Xu Jiahao nodded. This was originally what they wanted to do, but originally they wanted to consolidate the foundation and hoped to take a while to complete it. Now they have to speed up the progress. No matter how much it costs, they have to do it in a short time.
This way, even if Tencent launches Xiaonei.com, at least Renren.com can remain invincible and have the capital to establish a foothold in this market. However, the original monopoly of one company may turn into a multi-national melee.
That’s all.
"Second, open access to Renren to high school students and adults!" Wang Zhengfei finally began to lift the ban, relaxing the seal that he had placed on Renren from the beginning. He originally had no intention of opening it up so early, but was
Tencent was forced to come up with new strategies.
"Um, Feizi, aren't we only dealing with college students for the time being?" Xu Jiahao said in surprise after hearing Wang Zhengfei's suggestion.
In fact, in the minds of almost everyone at this time, Renren is an intranet for students. It started with students and is based on students.

There’s another chapter tonight!
Now Xiaochen is forced to cut off his feelings, but no matter what, he can finally find the energy to code!
