162: Section 162

The facts were pretty much as Li Wenqiu said.

At this point in time, many internet companies were waiting for Wang Mo to release information, then to see if their own companies had the ability to copy it.

If the new software wasn't complicated, then it was certain that countless similar competing products would appear in Yan Country within a short period.

However, no one knew at this time.

The development difficulty of this software was indeed not low, but no other major company would have the courage to copy it.

Listening to Li Wenqiu's words, Pony's smile widened considerably.

“When it comes to copying, our Penguin Group has never lost to anyone.”

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a large-scale software free-for-all in the same field.”

“Now we just have to see what this software that Wang Mo 5.9 has been hiding is.”

Just as Pony finished speaking.

A secretary standing in the corner finally looked at Pony and spoke.

“President Ma.”

This person had been in the conference room all along; he was responsible for monitoring the Junzi Group's movements in real-time, so that any information could be immediately synchronized with others.

“Has Junzi Group’s new software been released?”

The secretary nodded.

“What type of software is it, how difficult is it to copy, and are there any competing products on the market?”

Due to his excitement, Pony asked several questions in one breath.

The others in the conference room also looked at the secretary because of Pony's words.

“As for the type of software, our Penguin Group actually has a similar one internally.”

Hearing this, Pony was stunned for a moment.

“It really is software that our group already has.”

“What type is it?”

The secretary took a deep breath.

“Junzi Group’s brand-new software, like our QQ, is a chat application.”

Hearing this.

Everyone present instantly froze in place.

No one had expected that Wang Mo, this time, was actually preparing to target QQ!

“You, say that again?”

“What type of software is Junzi Group going to launch next?”

After a moment of stunned, Pony's voice rang out again.

And the secretary also said again.

“It’s a brand-new chat application.”

“Its name is WeChat.”

“Just now, Junzi Group released information about this software on various platforms.”

“And this software called WeChat will begin public beta testing in half a month.”

Listening to the secretary's words, Pony swallowed, his face still showing disbelief.

In his opinion.

No matter how foolish Wang Mo was, he couldn't possibly move against QQ.

Didn't he know QQ's current strength?

Even if Ali Group poured all its efforts into it, it couldn't create a chat application that could surpass QQ.

Even Penguin Group itself couldn't do it.

Therefore.

Upon hearing this news for the first time, Pony immediately couldn't believe it.

And not just him.

The expressions of the others in the conference room were equally surprised at this moment.

The next second.

Pony walked directly towards the secretary, taking three steps in two, and after reaching the secretary, he took his phone.

Until he saw it with his own eyes.

Pony was still a little hesitant to believe this fact.

And seeing Pony's actions, the gazes of the others in the room also turned towards Pony.

Several people pulled out their own phones, preparing to see if it was true.

And after seeing the content displayed on the phone.

Pony couldn't help but take a deep breath, then turned to look at everyone.

Facing everyone's curious gazes, Pony slowly nodded.

“It’s true.”

“Wang Mo’s next software is a new chat application called WeChat.”

“He really plans to go head-to-head with QQ in the chat application field!”

Hearing this.

Everyone was stunned again.

The next second.

All sorts of loud laughter and mockery instantly filled the entire conference room.

“I’m dying of laughter, this Wang Mo thinks he’s amazing just because he’s made a few hit software, he actually dares to target QQ.”

“What exactly is he thinking? King hasn’t completely defeated Dota Mobile yet, and now he wants to attack our Penguin's foundational software?”

“I used to think this person had good foresight, able to grasp many trends and some areas we couldn't see, but I didn't expect him to actually set his sights on QQ.”

“If Wang Mo were to retire now, he would definitely become a legendary figure in Yan Country’s internet, but he chose to challenge QQ, causing himself to fall from grace.”

For a moment.

Discussions rang throughout the entire conference room.

No one had expected.

This brand-new software developed by Wang Mo was actually a communication software of the same type as QQ!

It should be known.

The opponent of this software was not Taobao or Dota Mobile from before, but QQ.

This behemoth currently holding the number one spot in daily active users in Yan Country.

Currently in the country.

Countless people communicate and chat with friends through QQ, and the ecosystem formed by QQ itself is incredibly robust, with no possibility of being shaken.

Before this.

Although everyone knew that Wang Mo had said his next software would change the landscape of Yan Country's internet, no one had thought that what Wang Mo wanted to challenge was their QQ.

“Now, other major internet companies outside must all be stunned. They were originally waiting for Wang Mo to release some software so they could immediately copy it, but it turns out to be a communication software.”

Li Wenqiu couldn't help but laugh.

“Even if you gave them ten more guts, they probably wouldn’t dare to launch a communication software to challenge QQ, but Wang Mo actually dares to do this.”

“I originally thought I’d get to see a free-for-all among multiple similar software, but now it seems no other major internet company will dare to follow Wang Mo’s lead.”

After Li Wenqiu finished speaking.

Pony, who was beside him, couldn't help but click his tongue.

Just now.

He repeatedly looked at the content on his phone several times, and his expression was quite rich.

He was the one who least understood Wang Mo's actions.

“It seems that the success of King gave you the confidence to challenge our Penguin’s core domain. You actually plan to create a competing product for QQ.”
