I was reborn and stayed in school to lie down. I really don’t want to roll anymore!

Just three days after the phone call with Mr. Ma, WeChat Video Account was officially launched.

It is obvious that this project of Mr. Ma was not promoted recently, but was an idea he had had for a long time.

In such a short period of time, even if Jiang Hao told Zhuo Tongnan that he wanted to launch an incentive plan, it was too late to implement it.

It took me three days to just make a draft plan.

There are now many creators at Haijing Technology, and the specific draft incentive plan still needs to be discussed and decided among several departments.

The incentive coefficient and amount cannot be wrong, otherwise the losses and impacts caused will be immeasurable.

Anyway, WeChat has caught Jiang Hao off guard.

He himself is also watching videos on WeChat Video Account at this moment.

I want to see whether Tencent is well prepared this time or whether its level is similar to that of the previous life.

The familiar interface of the video account area, with content that is highly similar to remakes of videos in Haijing short videos.

After just scrolling through a dozen videos, Jiang Hao already had an idea in his mind.

The production level is the same as in the previous life, and it looks a bit rushed.

There is no particularly attractive new content at all. More than 50% of the content is remakes of the most popular videos in Haijing Short Video.

There was one thing that was beyond Jiang Hao's expectations. The WeChat Video Account business was not only limited to short videos, but even live streaming business had been launched.

The number of people in the live broadcast room ranges from a dozen to several hundred, and all of them are mainly responsible for selling goods.

Jiang Hao felt more relieved when he saw that they were selling products directly without any content accumulation.

But on the other hand, Tencent’s video account and news network, etc., are promoting WeChat’s new features extensively.

The voice was very loud, and it sounded like he was going to challenge Jiang Hao to a duel.

……

"Mr. Wang? Why did you call me today?"

Jiang Hao was still browsing the WeChat video account when he received a call from Mr. Wang from Meituan.

"You should have seen the news about WeChat Video Account, right?"

...

"Look, I knew about this a few days ago."

...

"You knew about it a few days ago? Did Mr. Ma tell you personally?"

Mr. Wang immediately guessed what had happened.

Tencent Group had not released any information before, but now it suddenly announced the video account and the function was directly launched.

The only way Jiang Hao could know it earlier than them was because Mr. Ma had given them a heads-up in advance.

"Yeah, you told me earlier."

...

"Okay! It's good that you know about this. I'm just reminding you, don't be fooled by Tencent!"

From a certain perspective, Wang finally stood on Jiang Hao's side.

Even though Meituan’s current Dianping was acquired through Tencent’s investment, Tencent is still one of Meituan’s major shareholders.

But in reality, Meituan and Haijing Technology are similar, and are completely separated from the original BAT system.

Haijing is now truly a system of its own, while Meituan is still in its growth phase and has not yet completely broken away from the label.

But the future result will be the same. Mr. Wang's reminder to Jiang Hao this time is actually paving the way for himself.

As long as Haijing can really survive, his own Meituan will be able to do it in the future!

"Haha! Mr. Wang, I have confidence in the company's short video business."

“WeChat’s short videos cannot affect our company.”

Originally, Jiang Hao didn't dare to say this, but he was confident in his heart.

But now we can see the actual situation of WeChat Video Account. Imitation and remade videos are very effective in attracting new users who have never been exposed to short videos. However, the remaining users who are already Haijing users can be directly sentenced to death.

Not to mention that the live streaming business is moving too hastily. How can one start selling goods right away? There is no fan base at all, and no trust has been established.

"I just checked the video account, and it's not as good as Haijing's experience. The content is also a bit repetitive and boring."

"Mr. Jiang, as long as you are prepared, I won't bother you anymore."

After saying this, Mr. Wang hung up the phone, leaving Jiang Hao time to deal with the situation.

As more and more news about WeChat Video Account was promoted, a trend gradually emerged on the Internet.

A series of media platforms that were originally unable to surpass Haijing Technology are now also helping Tencent Video.

For example, Weibo, Baidu Tieba, some entertainment video websites and so on.

Even though they know that life will be even more difficult once Tencent replaces Haijing, if the two companies join forces and stir up the market, they may have more room for survival.

Unfortunately, the actual situation is not what they wished.

……

The next day at noon, in the conference room.

The formal executive meeting was chaired by Jiang Hao.

The dozen or so executives present all had serious expressions on their faces; they had not received the news in advance like Gao Wei and the other two.

We are a little nervous now that the company’s core business suddenly has a competitor, and that competitor is Tencent.

After all, it is a well-established first-tier domestic company and a leader in the Internet industry.

Moreover, they were quite good at imitation in the past, so they are somewhat worried about the current development situation.

"How was Xiang's platform data yesterday? Was there a decline?"

...

"Boss Jiang, I have confirmed repeatedly that yesterday's data was slightly higher than the average of last week's data."

“According to Haijing’s current growth trend, there is actually no fluctuation.”

“As for the number of daily active users, it also increased slightly, and I didn’t see any impact.”

As soon as Wang Yongxiang came out with these data, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the data on your own platform is stable, there will be no major impact, as long as the basic foundation is stabilized.

"Has Tencent released any data?"

...

"Mr. Jiang, it has been more than 28 hours since the WeChat short video was launched, and no data has been disclosed yet."

Zhuo Tongnan is also on high alert at this moment, keeping a close eye on Tencent's performance.

"I have had private discussions with several operators at Tencent, and I heard that the data is average, and the performance of WeChat Video Account will not be announced to the public in the near future."

Since the data fluctuations of Haijing Technology are stable, the performance of WeChat short videos will definitely not be much better.

At most, it will attract a group of users who were originally from WeChat and have never experienced short videos.

Jiang Hao really hopes that the other party will do this to make the cake bigger.

"Ah Xiang, do you have any basic data?"

Wang Yongxiang nodded and took out another report in his hand.

As a technical director, I naturally have additional monitoring methods for key projects on the Internet.

Although this data is not very accurate, roughly 90% of the data is consistent.

At least the background data trend can be used to make a judgment.

"According to our monitoring using a third-party external mount, the peak number of people online at the same time on WeChat Video Account was 221 million, with an average of 18 people online..."

...

"Only 18 million?"

Jiang Hao couldn't help but interrupt Wang Yongxiang's speech.

He expected the peak number of online users to exceed one million at the same time, after all, it is a platform with the highest daily active users like WeChat.

With the efforts of Tencent and other media platforms, it would be strange if the revenue did not exceed one million!

But the average number of online users is only 18, which is extremely bad.
