184: Section 184

Many people wanted to know.

After the social function that became popular across the entire internet was launched previously, what else could WeChat 577 offer this time?

At this moment, no one knew yet.

WeChat's next update would directly shake the entire Yan Country internet.

After WeChat announced its update information, everything returned to calm.

Although it was already known that QQ would find it difficult to attract the attention of older users, and also difficult to snatch this group of users from WeChat's grasp.

However, QQ still announced a few days later that their next update would simplify registration and login, and would also add a contact list friend function.

Regarding QQ's update notification, the outside world once again showed contempt.

QQ didn't copy enough of the previous social functions.

This time.

It started copying the last difference between WeChat and QQ.

It seems.

QQ is prepared to go all the way down the path of copying WeChat.

As for the external criticisms, QQ's internal team seemed quite unconcerned.

Although WeChat's 100 million daily active users did not yet pose a threat to them.

However, Pony.

He just didn't want to see anyone else sharing the cake in the Yan Country's chat software domain.

After discovering WeChat's target market.

QQ also began an all-round blockade and countermeasure against WeChat's publicity.

And.

It also began its own publicity efforts in the older user market against QQ.

Although WeChat had slowed down this part of its promotion after the last daily active user announcement.

However, QQ's involvement also proved one thing.

That is.

QQ had indeed figured out the true purpose of WeChat's movements.

However.

Within WeChat, few people were worried about QQ's actions.

Because everyone knew very well that the older users who found chat software easiest to use had basically all been absorbed by WeChat.

This market for older users was indeed saturated.

To continue increasing daily active users and the number of older users, the next major function had to be launched.

And this function.

It was online payment, hailed as the soul of WeChat.

This WeChat Wallet was the key for WeChat to ultimately become a national software, with everyone owning a copy.

In Wang Mo's previous life.

Although Zhifubao was already very popular at that time, and online payments could be used everywhere.

However, for many middle-aged and elderly people, they were still accustomed to using cash at that time, and Zhifubao's usage rate among older user groups was not high.

But WeChat Wallet.

It truly brought online payment into thousands of households and to all older smartphone users.

If WeChat did not have the WeChat Wallet online payment function.

Perhaps WeChat's ultimate development would only be similar to QQ's.

But once the online payment function was launched, it directly widened the gap between WeChat and QQ.

And in this world.

Because WeChat had QQ as such a powerful opponent, its development was much more difficult.

After all, in his previous life, WeChat initially had a large amount of traffic diverted from QQ, and Tencent didn't mind QQ users migrating to WeChat; in fact, they even hoped QQ users would go to WeChat. However, in this world, QQ is WeChat's opponent.

So the current 100 million users.

It is almost the limit for WeChat without launching online payment.

However, this also has an advantage.

Because QQ did not divert traffic to WeChat, once WeChat launched online payment and successfully established itself in the payment field.

QQ's user base would significantly migrate to WeChat, and this migration would be unstoppable even by Tencent.

It's just that now.

WeChat's main opponent.

It will change from Tencent to Ali Group.

Challenging the core areas of two top-tier major companies simultaneously, let alone in this world, even in his previous life, no internet company had ever tried it.

And Wang Mo not only wanted to do this.

He also prepared to successfully defeat Tencent and Ali!

Several days later.

Half an hour before WeChat's impending update.

Junzi Group.

Inside the Weixin Department.

At this moment.

All employees in the department were completely focused, with busy figures constantly moving through the office area.

Everyone was so busy.

It was all because of a function that WeChat was about to launch.

All employees of the Weixin Department knew.

When this function was launched.

WeChat would truly receive the attention of countless eyes.

Challenging QQ and Blue Wallet simultaneously, this statement alone could directly ignite the internet.

Not to mention.

What they are doing now is exactly this.

"All debugging is ready."

"The major banks have also prepared their interfaces."

"We have also prepared a large number of offline promotion teams in every city, ready to act at any time."

Zhang Fan's voice rang out behind Wang Mo.

Because it was a critical time, Zhang Fan and many senior Douyin employees also came to the Weixin Department to help.

"But boss."

Zhang Fan's voice continued.

"Do we really need to immediately compete with Blue Wallet for the offline QR code payment market?"

"If we do, Ali Group will definitely not sit idly by; they will certainly come at us with full force."

The Weixin Department had already prepared offline promotion teams in major cities. With a single command, they would take WeChat's payment QR codes to various street shops and contact owners, hoping these merchants would use WeChat's merchant QR codes.

Of course.

To avoid premature leakage of information.

These offline promotion teams still did not know what the QR codes in their hands were; they only thought they were QR codes for a certain WeChat offline event, and they would only learn the specific details tomorrow.

Listening to Zhang Fan's voice, Wang Mo murmured.

"You underestimate Ali Group's vigilance."

"Whether we immediately compete with them for the offline QR code payment market or not, they will attack us with full force immediately."

"Old Ma is not as casual as Pony. He will leave no stone unturned against all potential competitors of Blue Wallet."
