178: Section 178
However, the number of QQ users is probably at least in the thousands.
Although WeChat has a large number of young user groups, the number of these users is still only a fraction compared to QQ.
Therefore.
At this time, although QQ has not yet launched social functions, many users are already looking forward to it.
And a few hours later.
QQ.
Finally, updates were pushed in the application stores of major mobile phones!
And this time, QQ's social functions are not limited to mobile QQ; even the PC version has social functions.
The social functions launched by Penguin are also very consistent with their character; they are basically a copy of WeChat's three social functions, with almost no major changes.
Shake, Drifting Bottle, Nearby.
The three functions that made WeChat explode in popularity in the past two periods now all appear on QQ, the chat software with the most users.
Because the number of users is much higher than WeChat, these functions on QQ can even allow users to meet more strangers.
Just five hours after the three functions were launched.
QQ released the usage data of the new functions.
Within five hours.
The cumulative usage of the three functions has already exceeded 100 million!
As soon as this number was released.
It instantly shocked countless people.
It also made many other internet companies re-recognize the power of QQ.
No matter what.
This software is still the leader in Yan Country's internet field, second to none.
It probably won't be long.
The usage of social functions in QQ will directly catch up with WeChat.
Although WeChat has not disclosed this data, everyone knows that WeChat is no longer a match for QQ.
When QQ also launched social functions.
The situation that will follow is.
A large number of WeChat uninstalls.
And the situation was similar to what many outsiders speculated: within a few days of QQ's social functions being launched, the number of uninstalls by young users of WeChat in a short period exceeded tens of millions.
And the outside world and Penguin Group's estimates for WeChat's daily active users in the following days all stayed at a level of no more than ten million.
But what no one outside knew was.
The final number of WeChat's daily active users actually stopped abruptly after dropping to 100 million!
Chapter 117: Daily active users announced again, shocking Penguin Group!
Five days after QQ launched its social update.
Penguin Group Building.
In a conference room of the QQ department.
“The number of QQ’s daily active users has successively increased by about 50 million in the past few days.”
“Before WeChat launched its social functions, our QQ’s daily active users were approximately 600 million.”
“In the two months after WeChat launched its social functions, QQ’s daily active users dropped from 600 million to 570 million.”
“And now, five days after the QQ update, our daily active users have reached 620 million, even higher than before.”
In the room.
Li Wenqiu was telling others the QQ data from the past two days.
Listening to Li Wenqiu’s words, Ma Liuyun also couldn't help but nod.
“This Wang Mo indeed has some ability.”
“He can see the potential of social functions in chat software.”
“It’s just a pity.”
“All his actions are just making wedding dresses for QQ.”
“We have no losses; we just copied a few of his functions, which increased our daily active users by 20 million.”
While speaking, Ma Liuyun couldn't help but smile.
Because Dota Mobile has now entered a stable development period, and basically no problems will occur, he has now been transferred to the QQ department.
And after listening to Ma Liuyun.
Xiao Ma, who was in the main seat, also nodded.
“WeChat’s previous 130 million looked like a lot, but in reality, most of these users should be QQ users.”
“Most QQ users who downloaded WeChat did not abandon the use of QQ and used both WeChat and QQ simultaneously every day, so they were still counted in QQ’s daily active users.”
“But there were also some QQ users who, after downloading WeChat, quickly made WeChat their primary communication tool, and they are the daily active users that QQ lost before.”
“That’s why WeChat’s daily active users and QQ’s previous decrease in daily active users didn’t match up.”
“But no matter what.”
Xiao Ma paused.
“After QQ launched its social function update.”
“These two types of QQ users will basically all return to QQ’s embrace.”
“Plus some other users who are interested in QQ’s social functions, it’s not surprising that QQ’s daily active users can increase by 50 million.”
After speaking.
Xiao Ma also couldn't help but smile.
“Presumably, after these five days, the number of WeChat’s daily active users should have dropped by at least ninety percent.”
After Xiao Ma finished speaking.
Ma Liuyun, who was beside him, also laughed.
“Actually, we did a preliminary internal estimate.”
“Based on the calculation that most of WeChat’s users are young people attracted by social functions.”
“In these five days.”
“The number of WeChat’s daily active users should have dropped to less than ten million.”
Listening to this, Xiao Ma nodded.
But regarding this result.
He still seemed somewhat dissatisfied.
“Ten million? I feel like that’s still a bit too much.”
Seeing this.
Ma Liuyun hurriedly added.
“This is only the conclusion for these five days.”
“If WeChat doesn’t continue to launch any functions that can attract young user groups in the future.”
“Then in half a month, WeChat’s daily active users will probably drop to only five million.”
“And ultimately.”
“Our estimate for WeChat is that it can stabilize at around three million users.”
After listening to Ma Liuyun, Xiao Ma couldn't help but click his tongue.
“Three million, that’s actually quite a lot.”
Ma Liuyun also laughed.
“If WeChat doesn’t continue to launch any hit features, its daily active users will probably never return to the tens of millions level.”
Upon hearing this.
Xiao Ma laughed.
“Don’t say that; I’m actually looking forward to WeChat continuing to launch some hit new features.”
“After all, one social function increased our daily active users by 20 million.”
“If Wang Mo still has any ideas, I hope he doesn’t hide them and brings them out as soon as possible.”
