Chapter 357: The number of Changchat users exceeds million, a tragic story for WeChat!
"Noble?" Wang Yi smiled.

Now he is Duan Fangzhou's benefactor, but once Duan Fangzhou becomes the vice president of China Unicom Group, it will be hard to say what will happen.

In short, the cooperation with Duan Fangzhou has enabled Duan Fangzhou to achieve outstanding performance and go a step further. For Wang Yi, there are only benefits and no disadvantages.

There is no other way. As a grassroots person like him, without a solid background and network resources, he can only create and cultivate resources on his own.

Like Zhao Huan, who became the deputy president of the branch.

In other words, Wang Yi is not short of money. If he were short of money, he could just give Zhao Huan a heads-up and Pufa’s funds would be approved quickly.

Even if the amount is not small, or even if it is not in compliance with regulations, it can still be done.

The same is true for Duan Fangzhou.

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

Damn, these leaders of state-owned enterprises can really drink!

Wang Yidu was overwhelmed.

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

In the evening, after sobering up, Wang Yi started chatting with Song Sining.

Song Si Ning was a little puzzled: "China Mobile is the strongest at the moment, why do we have to choose China Unicom?"

Wang Yi smiled slightly: "Choosing China Unicom for cooperation has four strategic significances."

"The first layer is China Telecom in the south and China Unicom in the north. Northern companies cannot do without China Unicom."

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

Duan Fangzhou just needs to say hello, and everyone below will do their best to do their best and give Wang Yi the best possible discount.

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

If it was before, it would be inevitable to arrange for subordinates to treat the other party's person in charge to a drink, and Shang K would entertain...

But now, with the relationship with Duan Fangzhou, the corresponding persons in charge will rush to serve Xingyi Technology.

There's nothing you can do about it, this is how the society is based on human relationships.

Song Si Ning nodded: "Yes, if you want to run a company in the north, you really can't do without China Unicom. What about the second floor!"

"The second consideration is that China Mobile's 3G is too bad, and it will take time for 4G to become popular. China Unicom's 3G is the best solution at the moment."

"So that's how it is." Song Si Ning suddenly realized.

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

"By offering free data traffic for Xingyi apps, we can attract more users, expand our user base, and increase the time users spend using Xingyi apps, thereby achieving growth in both the number of users and revenue."

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

"What? Cooperating with China Unicom can also suppress Apple?"

Song Si Ning was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "By the way, the best-selling contract phone of China Unicom right now is the iPhone 4s."

"That's right!" Wang Yi nodded.

Last year's iPhone 4 contract phone was initially purchased by China Mobile.

This year, China Mobile's 3G was so poor that Apple abandoned China Mobile and chose to cooperate with China Unicom.

Therefore, in addition to its own channels, China Unicom contract phones also account for a large proportion of Apple's sales in the country.

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

The simplest reason is that the orders for provincial Unicom contract phones are limited. If 1 orders are placed for Xphone 1 and Xphone 70pro, then there will be 4 fewer orders for the corresponding iPhone 70s.

In the future, the posters and display cabinets for iPhone 4s in China Unicom business halls will be replaced in large quantities or even completely with those for Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro.

The contract phone packages promoted by shopping guides will also change from iPhone 4s contract phone packages to Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro contract phone packages!
In addition, the iPhone 4s was already slow to sell, while the Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro, one a mid-range phone starting at RMB and the other a high-end phone starting at RMB , perfectly fit the needs of different consumer groups and are hot-selling across the country!

The result is predictable. Shopping guides will definitely be more willing to promote the Xingyi mobile phone, and consumers will also be more willing to buy the Xingyi mobile phone.

As one thing grows, another shrinks. The already sluggish sales of iPhone 4s in China will only get worse.

The already hot-selling performance of Xphone 1 and Xphone 1pro will be further enhanced.

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

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 really wise."

Song Sining was filled with emotion. If she were to make the decision, she would definitely choose the mobile cooperation with the largest user base.

But if that were the case, I'm afraid it would be the end.

After all, China Mobile's 3G is really lame, and Apple has even abandoned China Mobile, so there is no need for Xingyi Technology to force itself to cooperate.

Wang Yi smiled slightly: "But when China Mobile enters the 4G era, we can deepen cooperation with China Mobile. As for now, if China Mobile and China Telecom come to us, we can agree to contract phones. But forget about customizing SIM cards. Let's wait until the 4G era."

"Okay." Song Si Ning remembered it firmly, and then looked at Wang Yi with charming eyes: "Qingming Festival is coming soon, do you want to go back to the capital after Qingming Festival?"

It was a rare opportunity for Wang Yi to come back, so Song Sining naturally wanted Wang Yi to stay a few more days so that she could have a few more days of alone time with Wang Yi.

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

"Qingming..." Wang Yi nodded: "Okay, then I'll go back after Qingming. I'll spend more time with my President Song!"

"Yeah, you're the best!" Song Si Ning was in a good mood and gave him a sweet kiss.

Then he bent down.

Let Wang Yi enjoy Song’s mouth-watering chicken again.

The taste is truly indescribable.

Wang Yi was in a good mood and decided to treat well the girl who loved him deeply.

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

Just as Wang Yi and Song Si Ning were having an in-depth conversation, a piece of news became a hot search:
【At the end of March, the number of Changchat users exceeded 1 million! 】

For a time, the entire Internet was in an uproar, and public opinion exploded:
"What? Changliao has over 100 million users? Oh my god, how long has it been?"

"Changchat was released on New Year's Day, and in just three months, the number of users exceeded 100 million! Awesome, really awesome, WeChat is crying in the toilet."

"Hahaha, WeChat is really embarrassing. We got up early but arrived late."

"There's nothing we can do about it. The first version of Changchat was better and more powerful than the one WeChat released a year ago."

"Yes, Changchat launches all the features first, and WeChat follows up one or two months later. Some features cannot be followed up at all, and they lag behind step by step. They are not as useful as Changchat at all."

"Features like nearby tours and nearby food have been released by Changliao a long time ago, and WeChat hasn't copied them yet. Users will definitely use Changliao!"

"The latest version of WeChat is only as good as Changchat was two months ago. It's lagging behind. I just switched from WeChat to Changchat."

"I feel like WeChat has been led by Changchat by the nose. Whatever Changchat comes up with, WeChat immediately follows up and starts copying it. But unfortunately, when WeChat finally copies it, Changchat comes up with a new feature. WeChat can only continue to copy..."

"If you fall behind one step, you will fall behind step by step. WeChat is dead, and it deserves to have over 100 million users."

"All my friends have given up WeChat and switched to Changliao."

"With over 100 million users in just three months, Changliao has a bright future. WeChat is definitely no match for it, and even QQ is struggling."

"Changliao has already defeated WeChat. I look forward to the day when Changliao defeats QQ."

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

"What about 600 million users? There are so many fake accounts, and the number of real active users is probably less than 300 million."

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

"The 100 million users of Changliao are more real. One mobile phone number can only register one Changliao account. If you want to open a secondary account, you have to keep two mobile phone cards, which is too expensive."

"In this case, it is only a matter of time before Changliao defeats QQ."

"Of course, Changliao is a social networking service for acquaintances. I look forward to Changliao's new features."

……

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

But Pony Ma, who was about to go to sleep, had a grim look on his face: "In three months, the number of users has exceeded 100 million, and even the number of monthly active users has exceeded 100 million. This is terrifying, really terrifying!"

Changliao users need to register with their mobile phone numbers, and one mobile phone number can only register one Changliao account.

Therefore, the number of Changliao users is very low. One hundred million users means one hundred million active users.

Unlike the current QQ users of 6 million, the number of truly active users is estimated to be cut in half.

Mr. Ma's face changed drastically, and he immediately called Zhang Long:

"Lao Zhang, you know about the number of Changchat users exceeding 100 million, right?"

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

Xiao Ma's mouth twitched: "..."

I haven't even gotten angry yet, but you've already admitted defeat. What should I do?
Do I have to comfort you?

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

“WeChat has 80 million registered users.”

"So many!" Brother Xiao Ma was shocked: "If QQ attracts more traffic, won't it be able to exceed 100 million? That way, it will be acceptable in terms of face."

Zhang Long frowned slightly, "It's useless, Chairman. We have 80 million registered users, but only 30 million active users."

Xiao Ma Ge was silent: "..."

“Those 50 million registered users have all become Changliao users.”

Xiao Ma Ge's face turned pale: "!!!"

The positioning and functions of Changliao and WeChat are highly overlapping.

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

Although Changliao started late, its first version crushed WeChat’s efforts of more than a year, and it continued to innovate and lead.

To the extent that WeChat can only follow behind Changchat and keep copying.

In this case, is there any need to ask users how to choose?

Naturally, they gave up WeChat and switched to Changchat.

As a result, more than 50 million WeChat users completely abandoned WeChat and switched to Changliao, bringing the number of Changliao users to over 100 million.

No wonder Zhang Long, who has always been unconvinced by anyone, bluntly said that WeChat was defeated.

Things have developed to this point, and we have indeed failed.

With only 30 million active users left, WeChat is basically in ICU, unable to withstand the crazy development of Changchat.

"Oh! This is difficult." Mr. Ma sighed. Zhang Long was even more decisive: "How about Chairman, let's give up WeChat!"

Zhang Long looked gloomy. He really didn't have the strength to fight anymore.

Chatting is too intense!

The new features are released so many times, so fast and so good that even WeChat can’t copy them all!
Instead of continuing to struggle, it would be nothing more than following behind Chang Liao and bringing shame upon yourself.

Xiao Ma Ge shook his head and said: "Don't give up, WeChat still has value! Keep working hard."

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

Zhang Long knew it very well.

As long as WeChat continues to exist, even if it cannot defeat Changliao, it can still take away some of Changliao’s users.

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

This is the only meaning of WeChat’s existence at present, to be cannon fodder for QQ.

Mr. Ma sighed and said earnestly, "Mr. Zhang, Tencent has invested a lot in WeChat. WeChat should give Tencent a return!"

Zhang Long nodded: "This... I understand, Mr. Ma, I will push the new version of WeChat as soon as possible, and continue to copy... continue to catch up with Changchat!"

"Very good!" President Ma said meaningfully: "Boss Zhang, as long as WeChat can continue to curb the development of Changliao and divide Changliao's users, you will have made a great contribution! WeChat has failed now, and QQ must not be surpassed by Changliao. Social networking is our foundation!"

"Yes! I will do my best!" Zhang Long promised, but he knew very well that WeChat could not hold out for much longer.

In just three months, WeChat lost 50 million users to Changliao.

How long can the remaining 30 million users last?
When a game that was once extremely popular is abandoned by most people, it is not far from being shut down.

In essence, social software is the same as games.

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

Even if we continue to develop it, it will only serve as a moat for QQ and as cannon fodder to snipe Free Chat!

This is a battle that is bound to be lost, but has to be fought!
Zhang Long looked gloomy and could only sigh helplessly: "WeChat has finally followed the same path as MiTalk!"

Mr. Ma smiled and said, "Don't be discouraged, Mr. Zhang. Even if it is used as a moat for QQ, the headquarters will continue to invest in WeChat. As long as you persist, there may be a day when the clouds will clear and the moon will appear!"

"Wait till the clouds clear and the moon appears?" Zhang Long smiled bitterly: "Chairman, will there be such a day?"

"It depends on you. As long as you don't give up, there will be hope in the end." Director Ma said in a deep voice, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

He still strongly supports WeChat, but uses WeChat to fight against Changchat and divide Changchat users, thereby protecting QQ.

As for WeChat, it will eventually become bigger and stronger, and it will dominate the online chat...

Even Mr. Ma doesn’t believe it!
But in order to stabilize Zhang Long, he could only draw pie in the sky and encourage...

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

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

"Wang Yi, Wang Yi, meeting you is the sorrow of WeChat, and even more the sorrow of me, Zhang!"

“If there were no you and Changliao, the one with over 100 million users would be WeChat, right?”

"Ugh!"

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

The night is dark and there is no dawn ahead.

But the situation is quite different for Mayu Technology.

The entire Changchat department held another video conference.

But not for work, but for celebration!

"What do you think? When Changchat reaches 100 million users, will President Wang personally reward us?"

"I think so. After all, we have taken down WeChat. It just so happens that Director Wang is in Jeju right now. Maybe he will come tomorrow."

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

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

"Haha, I just graduated and I accidentally joined Mayu Technology, then joined the Changliao development team, and then successfully gilded my skills. I'm so lucky, hahaha."

"Good, you have successfully completed your gilding. You can now change jobs."

"Job change? Where else can I jump to after leaving Xingyi Technology? Are you kidding me? There is no better company than Xingyi Technology."

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

"Love is not the right thing to do. Women will only slow down my coding speed, and breaking up with them won't make me give up my job at Xingyi Technology."

"That's right, man, 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 also wither.”

"But if you put your career first, even if you lose love, you will be so poor that you only have money left, and you can easily meet new love."

"I've learned your lesson, Brother Du. My career comes first, and making money comes first."

"Yes, make money and save it well. I will take you to Honglangman someday!"

"..."

Cai Zisong was speechless: "Stop talking nonsense, don't lead the newcomer astray, he's only 22! Go to bed, get to the department early tomorrow, and continue to promote the business of the next sector!"

"Yes!"

"Sleep!"

"install!"

Everyone went offline.

Sure enough, the next morning, Wang Yi came to the Meiyu Building and went straight to the chat department.

Since core confidential business like Changchat must be kept strictly confidential before launch, Wang Yi handed it over to trusted veterans such as Cai Zisong in Jeju.

Cai Zisong is a man of outstanding strength, good character and great ability. He has been highly valued by Wang Yi since the development stage of Meiyu.

This time, the chat development was done very well again.

Wang Yi intends to give him an important task.

For example, the position of vice president and technical director of Xingyi Technology’s Shandong Province headquarters was given to Cai Zisong.

As for the president of the Shandong provincial headquarters, Song Sining still holds the position concurrently.

Arrange a few reliable vice presidents to assist her.

Of course, after this period of development, many outstanding talents have emerged in the imperial capital headquarters.

Wang Yi has been asking the assessment department to observe, assess and evaluate secretly.

Anyone who has a promising future, ability and good character will be included in the President's Program.

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

Rather than poaching some management from BAT, Wang Yi prefers to train his own people at Xingyi Technology.

If management positions are given to outsiders, old employees will definitely be disheartened, but major companies do not care about this.

There is no other reason, they only think about how to fire these old employees and replace them with cheap new employees.

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

On the contrary, as long as you have the ability and outstanding performance, you will have no problem working until 53.

But if they really can't take it anymore and their performance is not up to standard, Wang Yi will arrange for them to transfer to a relatively easier second-tier department for the sake of being a veteran employee. Although the salary will be lower, the work will be easy and they will not face a mid-life crisis or be unable to find a job after being laid off.

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

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

But if one becomes addicted to pornography, gambling and drugs and squanders all the hard-earned money when young, then there is no hope.

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

This type of person is unstable. Once their savings are gone, they are likely to take risks and sell out company intelligence for profit.

These unstable elements are the ones who should be laid off, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach for those over 35 years old.

Wang Yi looked around the entire Changliao department and smiled: "Everyone has worked hard. Changliao's user base has exceeded 100 million, which is inseparable from everyone's efforts! This year, all employees in the entire Changliao department will receive an extra two months of year-end bonus! If Changliao's active users exceed 200 million by the end of the year, another two months of year-end bonus will be added!"

Hearing this, everyone became excited.

An extra two months of year-end bonus means that the original two months' year-end bonus can be increased to four months!

If the number of active users exceeds 6 million, that would be months’ year-end bonus!

The developers at Inspur next door earn between 2500 and 3500, which is already in the high-paying T0 tier in Jeju.

The salary of developers at Jeju Meiyu Technology is between 3000 and 4500, which is 20% higher than that of its competitors!

This salary is higher than that of IBM.

In this way, you can get an additional 4 to 6 months of year-end bonus, which means another yuan, which is really great.

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

The year-end bonus of our competitors is only for one or two months.

I can only say that the salary Wang Yi gave was too high.

The monthly salary is higher than that of international giants, and competitors want to sue Wang Yi for malicious salary increase.

Now they are giving out year-end bonuses that are two or three times higher than those of their competitors. This is simply insane.

However, it is precisely for this reason that employees of Xingyi Technology do not consider leaving the company, even if they break up in a long-distance relationship.

Without considering changing jobs, it would be hard to find better treatment than Xingyi Technology.

It's basically over.

For example, in the Changliao department, if you do a good job, you can get 18 salaries a year, more than , which is two or three times the average salary in Jeju!
"Thank you, Chairman!" Everyone applauded and was very excited.

Wang Yi waved his hand: "With me, salary is not a problem, and year-end bonus is not a problem. As long as you have outstanding performance, everything is possible!"

"Okay, how are the service accounts, subscription accounts, and enterprise accounts progressing?"

"Yes!" Cai Zisong responded, and continued, "Chairman, in the past few months, our Changchat department has contacted many institutions and departments, and finally got through many service numbers. We have logged into Changchat one after another and started testing."

"We have also opened some enterprise accounts. We are also cultivating subscription accounts. Many Weibo influencers are willing to come and talk about opening certified accounts."

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

At that time, it can be released together with Xingshen Card, Gaode Card, and Ele.me Card!
Grab tens of millions more users!
