"President Zhou, Tencent can't sit still anymore and has sued us in court."
"As expected!"
Zhou Hongyi is not surprised at all. It would be strange if Qidian did not sue. As for prosecution, are you ever afraid of it?
Since entering the Internet industry, he has been sued no less than a hundred times, and one more lawsuit from Tencent is just a trivial matter.
"If he wants to sue, then we will countersue. If he doesn't sue us for unfair competition, then we will also sue him for unfair competition, and we will sue him where Tencent is located."
"Mr. Zhou, if we file a lawsuit over there, the risk is too great, isn't it?"
The executives of 360 were a little confused. As we all know, for some large companies, there will be partiality at the local level. First, it is because of the other party's local connections. Second, this can be regarded as a default rule.
Your local people are not on my side, so why should I put my company here? The world is so big, where can I not go?
"Because winning or losing is not important to us. On Tencent's side, even if we lose, we still have a reason and can at least guide public opinion."
As soon as Zhou Hongyi said these words, his senior executives immediately understood. If he won, there would be no need to say anything. If he lost, they would hire a navy to create public opinion and say that there was some shady story.
"I understand, I'll let my colleagues in the legal department handle it."
"This time we caught Tencent off guard. In this case, it is estimated that his computer manager would not dare to launch it. As long as the computer manager does not launch it, we will win this battle."
For Zhou Hongyi, he doesn't care whether he wins or loses the lawsuit. His goal is to make users question Tencent's privacy security. As long as there are questions, Tencent will not even think about entering the network security market.
…
"Tencent sued 360 for unfair competition, and the court has accepted it."
"360 countersued Tencent for unfair competition and believes that Tencent is suing itself at this time to divert public attention and avoid answering privacy issues."
“How seriously do you take your message?”
"Programmer's Home: How software reads computer users' private data, senior network security experts will explain to you."
…
As 360 countersued Tencent, everyone knew that the two Internet clients, No. 1 and No. 2, were completely at war, and countless media reporters began to report on it. Of course, more of them were on the Internet.
Both parties have their own very good reasons, and it is under this circumstance that a mobile phone software began to go online.
ios platform!
In the latest rankings, a software called WeChat appeared.
Liu Neng is a mobile phone addict, and he is also a fruit fan. When he has nothing to do on weekdays, he likes to find some interesting apps in Apple’s App Store to download and play.
After get off work today, I was bored at home and was about to look for something good when I saw this WeChat app.
"What is this, ranked first?"
Liu Neng knew the ranking rules, which were to evaluate based on the number of downloads. In other words, although it was only the latest ranking and only included those that had been online for less than a month, he did not see this in the top ten yesterday, indicating that it was online.
It will not take more than three days.
In three days, he reached the first place, which aroused Liu Neng's curiosity and clicked on the detailed introduction of the software.
"Sending and receiving messages, sharing photos, and voice chats can all be done easily with us."
Seeing this introduction, Liu Neng showed an interested expression and muttered: "Isn't this just QQ?"
"Download it first and take a look. There must be a reason why it ranked first so quickly."
Clicking the download button, Liu Neng began to wait. Of course, what he didn't know was that although Apple's ranking was based on download volume, the premise was that there was no official control in the background.
The software downloaded in less than a minute. After clicking on the software, the registration and login pages appeared. The entire page was also very simple. In addition to the two buttons of registration and login, there was a line of small words below: Use the following account to log in with one click.
.
There are three icons below, Micropayment, Meituan, and Fanfou.
Liu Neng did not choose to use the following software account to log in with one click, although he has accounts with Meituan and Fanfou. As for micropayment, it is a common account with Meituan.
He didn't choose to use one-click login, not because he didn't want to make it easier, but because recently there were news and messages about QQ stealing user privacy on the Internet, which made him more vigilant. If he used these software to log in, his data would be stolen by this
Was it stolen?
I chose to register. The only way to register was to enter a mobile phone number. Liu Neng entered his mobile phone number, and after a while, his phone received a verification text message.
Thank you for using WeChat. Your verification code this time is 3688. This verification code is valid within five minutes. This text message is free.
Enter the verification code. After the verification is successful, the page changes, "Please fill in your nickname."
Nickname, Liu Neng used his QQ nickname, and then clicked Confirm, and then the page returned to the home page, but the page was empty and nothing.
"Ding dong!"
A message reminder appears on the page.
WeChat official: Thank you for using the WeChat voice chat software. If you are a newly registered user, you can click on the tutorial to determine the operation plan. If not, please click on the lower right corner to skip.
The tutorial only lasts one minute, and Liu Neng soon understood how to operate it.
"It actually supports voice chat. Doesn't it mean that as long as there is wifi in the future, there will be no need to waste phone bills on calls?"
In the tutorial, Liu Neng sent a voice message to the WeChat official, and then clicked on Adapt. He found that the voice effect was very good, just like making a phone call.
"No, I want to try it."
Liu Neng thought that he should find a friend to try it out, and while he was thinking about who to find for the experiment, another notification popped up on the page.
"When looking for someone to chat, you can import the address book with one click, click to add a friend in the address book, and you can chat online after successfully adding friends."
Because he couldn't think of anyone to look for at the moment, Liu Neng chose to import with one click. Soon, two icons lit up on the page, followed by a list of friends' names in his mobile phone address book, and a gray online invitation for friends.
register.
With the previous tutorial drill, he knew that this meant that the first two friends had registered for WeChat, while the latter friends had not yet registered for WeChat, so they were gray. If you choose to invite, the other party will receive a message.
Invitation text message.
"Monkey actually plays with this thing, let's add him first."
Liu Neng clicked on the lit icon and chose to add a friend. Monkey was his college roommate and the relationship was very strong.
Ding dong!
Less than a minute after applying as a friend, a message of approval came, and a message also appeared on the chat interface.
"Pus?"
"Monkey, what have you been doing lately?"
Liu Neng was speechless when he saw the message sent by his friend. This is his nickname. He has been with it since he was a child and has been said by countless people, so he can already be indifferent.
"What else can I do? Work hard and save money to buy a house and marry a wife. My mother-in-law said that if she wants her daughter to marry me, she must have a house."
"Hey, I envy those of you who have girlfriends. People like us who don't have girlfriends don't have these worries."
Liu Neng sent this sentence by voice, and soon the other party also replied with a message.
"Sooner or later you will have it too. No, I forgot that your kid is the second generation of rich people. This is not a problem for you."
…
After chatting with his college classmates for more than ten minutes, Liu Neng stopped. He found that the voice chat was so interesting, as if he had returned to his life in college three years ago.
"Invite more friends to come over. This is more convenient than making a phone call."
Liu Neng felt that he had completely fallen in love with this software, so he decided to introduce this software to his friend.
WeChat headquarters!
Li Feng looked at the real-time data displayed on the big screen with a smile on his face. Although the product has only been online for less than a day, tens of thousands of people have already downloaded it, including 8,000 downloads on the iOS platform.
Of course, Li Feng also knew that this was the reason why his boss asked iOS to rank the software at the top, but judging from the user's usage time, it shows that the product design is still acceptable.
On average, the average usage time of all users so far is close to one hour. This shows that people who download the software do not give up after downloading out of curiosity because of the high ranking. It shows that users are quite satisfied with the software.
"Everyone, keep working hard. I'll report the situation to President Su."
Li Feng returned to his office and dialed Su Wang's number.
"Well, keep working hard and strive for five million this month, so that the advertising department can vigorously place ads."
Su Wang hung up the phone call from Li Feng. Regarding this data on the first day, he was no exception. In fact, WeChat in the previous life was not very good at the beginning. It was not as competitive as MiLiao and Kiki.
The real explosion of WeChat began with the launch of the voice chat version, and the user base has grown significantly.
And he directly abandoned the previous versions of WeChat and started directly with the voice version. This would buy him some time, because neither MiLiao nor Kiki are currently online, and there is no voice function set up.
After learning about WeChat's voice function, these two companies will definitely follow suit, which will delay the release time, and this will provide WeChat with a time lag in development space.
As for Tencent, Su Wang is not worried at all now, because Tencent is having a fierce battle with 360 at the moment, so how can he be in the mood to pay attention to this.
As long as it reaches five million users in a month, even if Tencent reacts by then, WeChat will have a foothold and already has regular users. It will take some time for Tencent to catch up.
Five million is Su Wang's ambition and goal for this month.
