Rebirth 2010: I taught Mr. Lei how to make a mobile phone

Chapter 240: Going in the opposite direction, WeChat red envelope!
Through the update announcement of WeChat, as the opponent who knows WeChat best, Chen Mo can see the other party's development intentions.

That is to combine QQ and WeChat, take the essence of both, and then spend a lot of money to transfer QQ users to WeChat.

Chen Mo tried the new version of WeChat. It seems that after Zhang Xiaolong left, WeChat has finally found a path that suits its own characteristics.

Tang Daosheng is actually a capable person, but his ideas, like Tencent, are still stuck in traditional Internet thinking.

Chen Mo was very relieved to see that Tencent's technology tree on WeChat had gone astray, as it would fall into a swamp where the harder it tried, the more powerless it would become.

Good thing, good thing. At least I don’t have to worry too much for the time being.

On the other hand, what is the update on WeChat?

What users can see is a refined user page, which continuously improves and optimizes existing functions, and innovates and expands under the existing framework, such as message withdrawal, support for multi-person conversations, and sharing with Sina Weibo, etc.
What users cannot see is the scheduled cleaning of junk files, reduction of WeChat capacity, optimization of response speed and other technical adjustments.

The development of WeChat has now changed from the previous incremental market to the competition for existing users. After all, 4G has not yet come, and there are only more than 2 million mobile phone users. With the emergence of Redmi, the user base has increased by tens of millions compared with the original timeline.

So the next thing is not to compare who’s external skills are more fancy, but who’s internal skills are more solid.

However, Chen Mo discovered a problem when experiencing sharing, that is, QQ and Weichat blocked sharing from WeChat, whether it was inviting friends or sharing in Moments.

In fact, the two sides have been sharing information with each other on each other's software, which has long turned into a protracted battle of information attack and defense.

WeChat blocked the information flow from QQ and Weichat when it was first launched. Of course, the other party also adopted the same strategy and blocked each other.

One of the great benefits of Zhang Xiaolong coming to the other side is that he is very familiar with the technical implementation principles of QQ and Wechat. With his support, WeChat, which was originally blocked, bypassed the blocking mechanism through some "tricky" means, and achieved sharing and invitations, thus gaining a lot of users.

At the same time, the technical foundation has been strengthened.

I didn’t expect it to be blocked again. It seems a new round of attack and defense is about to begin.

Behind the smooth experience of users in using the product is the love-hate relationship among enterprise technicians.

Judging from the data today, WeChat still leads the mobile software market in terms of both 3 million users and 2 million monthly active users, ahead of Weilian with 2 million users and 1.3 million monthly active users.

The original king duo, QQ and Fetion, have become yesterday's news and have fallen into the second tier. Following them are other friendly companies such as Wangxin, Yixin, and Weimi, which are all amusing themselves and occupying a corner.

At least for now, with Zhang Xiaolong in charge of WeChat, Chen Mo can rest assured for the time being, which is also the effect he wanted to achieve before.

However, the next version of WeChat is on the agenda. The current new version of WeChat is V1.7. Chen Mo plans to jump directly to V2.0 for the next version because he needs to prepare big moves for the Chinese New Year.

As for the update of the MIOS system, when Chen Mo saw a topic that suddenly jumped into the top ten on Weibo's real-time hot list.

#Xiaomo classmate and good brother#
Chen Mo covered his forehead, unable to bear the sight, he could not live like this.
As soon as the Xiaomo Assistant voice package was launched, it immediately received rave reviews from Mi fans.

After all, these days, the billionaire boss and the bachelor Chen Xiaowu can meet certain requirements and give people plenty of room for YY.

As Chen Mo expected, netizens developed various usage scenarios for Xiao Mo.

I won’t mention the moaning service, that’s basic.

Then derived scenes such as "Classmate Xiao Mo, call me daddy!" "Classmate Xiao Mo, call me wife!" "Classmate Xiao Mo, up and down, front and back, which side do you like?" "Classmate Xiao Mo, can you dance striptease?" emerged.

Affected by the incident, the comments under Chen Mo’s personal Sina Weibo were all from "Xiao Mo classmate" and "XXXX".

You know, netizens used to respectfully call Chen Mo "God of Mo".
Chen Mo, who could never go back, was in tears. Of course, after getting familiar with Xiao Lei, he also had a self-deprecating spirit. He first changed his profile to Xiao Mo Ben Mo.

Then he personally responded to some questions that were not too out of line.

The Xiaomi voice assistant team also began to focus on being down-to-earth, listening to suggestions from the Internet and constantly improving Xiaomo's various voice responses.

Where can they find materials online? They can find them on Chen Mo’s Weibo.

Because Chen Mo’s personal Weibo is more authoritative than Xiaomo’s assistant’s official Weibo, as if this is the official orthodoxy.

Chen Mo gritted his teeth and joined in the fun for two days, then began to disappear. After all, if he continued, his single would probably be released earlier than Lei Jun's.

The best way to avoid public opinion is to keep yourself busy.
The last day of September, Friday!

Chen Mo held a separate meeting with the management of the WeChat business unit and formulated the core content of WeChat V2.0: red envelopes!

At the same time, he called Chen Tong and Sun Ziwei over because one of the important links required him to follow up.

"Red envelopes are a New Year custom. Giving red envelopes to underage juniors is a way of bringing them blessings and good luck. Brother Long, is there a similar saying in the south? I remember it was called the opening red envelope?"

Although he didn't know why Chen Mo brought this up in the meeting, Zhang Xiaolong explained according to his words,

"That's right. Usually, the boss gives red envelopes to employees and subordinates on the day when the company resumes work after the Spring Festival. The red envelopes contain 8 yuan, 18 yuan and other auspicious banknotes to make everyone happy and lively, symbolizing a good start, harmony and prosperity of business."

Chen Mo took over the conversation and continued, "So the content of WeChat V2.0 is set as 'sending red envelopes'. The function can realize the sending and receiving of red envelopes between friends, check the sending and receiving records, and withdraw cash. The upper limit of the amount set for WeChat red envelopes is 200 yuan. It is a voluntary gift and does not need to be returned."

Chen Mo took a whiteboard pen and wrote and drew on the whiteboard, listing the red envelope cover, the gameplay of sending red envelopes, the mobile game linked with Shake and red envelopes, WeChat wallet and other functional points, but he only mentioned them briefly and listed a general framework. After writing, he threw the pen and said, "That's about it. You guys go down and improve it. This version is designated as WeChat V2.0. This version has a deadline, but don't worry, there should be plenty of time, and it can be launched after New Year's Day.

There are still nearly 3 months left, and I have only one requirement: when it comes to money, stability, security, zero errors, and traceability are the key requirements! ”

Zhang Xiaolong: “Understood!”

"Also, don't be stingy with mobile game benefits. This is our first time to hold an event, so we can be more generous and give out some big prizes, such as all skins, wish heroes, etc."

Sun Ziwei: “Understood!”

"Next is Lao Chen's side. Why did I ask you to come to this meeting? It's because we have the functions, and we need to organize activities to maximize these functions.

Why is it launched on New Year’s Day? Because it is followed by the Spring Festival, which is the biggest traffic point.

So, Lao Chen, find out about the bidding for this year's Spring Festival Gala."

"Uh, you want to bid for advertising on the Spring Festival Gala."

Chen Mo smiled slightly, "No, I want to sponsor this year's Spring Festival Gala, and even use it to give out red envelopes to audiences across the country."

Wow~ When the boss said this, everyone couldn't help but exclaim.

Is this the boss's plan? They felt a faint excitement in their hearts.

Sending red envelopes to people all over the country, hey~~~so fun!

Even Zhang Xiaolong's eyes revealed a hint of heat.

A few days later, Zhang Xiaolong came to Chen Mo with the plan for WeChat V2.0 for confirmation. This was the final conclusion they reached after countless brainstorming sessions over the past few days.

Zhang Xiaolong looked at the young boss who was reviewing the plan in front of him and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

The biggest difference between Chen Mo and Xiao Ma Ge is that for the latter, it is his subordinates who make various suggestions and he makes the final decision whether to do it or not; while the former is often far-sighted and always wants to be ahead of everyone else. His ideas are indeed as wild and imaginative as wild horses and antelopes hanging their horns. Upon careful consideration, they do seem to be very feasible and have a promising future full of imagination.

The more they discussed it during this period, the more they felt that the idea of ​​sending red envelopes was simply amazing. The more they discussed, the more ways to play it became. They even simulated the scenario of sending red envelopes in a group and couldn't stop at all, just like playing a game.

After being in Bi'an for a few months, Zhang Xiaolong could feel Chen Mo's trust and respect, just as promised when he persuaded him to come to Bi'an.

But what's more important is that he can clearly feel his own growth and progress, which is what he values ​​more than money.

Just like playing chess, it feels good to beat the weak opponent for a while, but it is a bit boring to beat the weak opponent all the time.

Only by constantly competing with masters can you make continuous progress and reach the top!
Chen Mo had no idea what the other party was thinking. He looked at the familiar functional modules and pages and approved it directly after checking for any deficiencies.

This is the value of Zhang Xiaolong. He can quickly understand his intentions and lead his subordinates to learn from them. He even wrote risk suggestions at the bottom of the plan: "There may be risks and public opinions in terms of fund supervision. It is recommended to consult the regulatory authorities on the relevant regulations on Internet transfers."

After Chen Mo agreed to the plan, he asked them to communicate with the company's legal department, jointly investigate the risk factors, and negotiate with relevant financial departments.

After the plan was approved, Chen Mo called Chen Tong over and handed him the draft plan for the Spring Festival Gala that he had written.

Chen Tong looked at it for a while and kept saying, "This, this. Will CCTV agree to it?"

"Money makes the world go round."

"I asked a few friends at CCTV and found out that there will be a bidding for Spring Festival Gala ads at Media Center in early November."

"Call me when the time comes, and we'll go together!"

"it is good!"

On October 10, Apple’s fall conference was held as scheduled.

Cook, the new head of Apple, appeared in black. Jobs missed the Apple conference for the first time due to health reasons. The new iPhone 4S became the absolute protagonist at the conference.

iOS 5, A5 dual-core processor, 800-megapixel camera.
More powerful chips, clearer cameras, and longer battery life
After Jobs retired behind the scenes due to illness, Cook took over and began his traditional art of squeezing toothpaste.

However, in the final global market mobile phone data comparison section, Xiaomi appeared on the list for the first time, ranking fifth.

Perhaps everything is destined, one day after the press conference.

10 month 5 day.

Steve Jobs, the man who created the iMac, iPod, iPhone, iPad, and MacBook, and was hailed as one of the greatest product managers in history and a man who repeatedly changed the world, has passed away at the age of 56.

From then on, the world lost Steve Jobs, but God got the whole Apple family.
Apple’s official website displays a black-and-white commemorative photo of Jobs to commemorate the eternal Jobs.
