Chapter 709 The New King of Social Networking
The gradual arrival of an era...
It often comes suddenly.
Maybe a month, maybe half a month, maybe a week, maybe...
Just one day.
On the evening of January 28.
The haze shrouded the entire [Tengji Technology].
The former arrogance, the former disdain, the former overlooking of the heroes...
All the emotions in the past, at this moment, gradually turned into a sense of suffocation.
The panic filled the entire conference room.
Zhang Xiaoqiang's face was pale, and he tried hard to keep himself calm and continue to preside over the overall situation, but the constantly jumping data in reality made him feel a sense of panic from the bottom of his heart.
As of 3 o'clock this afternoon.
The total number of registered users of [WeChat] in China is 153 million.
And [WeChat] has broken through 150 million, and there is only a difference of more than 3 million registrations nationwide.
From the first day of the Lunar New Year to the sixth day of the Lunar New Year...
In six days.
Zhang Sheng's group of ground salesmen continued to conquer cities and territories...
From small streets and communities to large regions and markets, these people were like locusts passing through, constantly harvesting every area belonging to [WeChat].
[WeChat] has gradually changed from the previous attacker to the defender.
The change of identity made all the staff of [WeChat] feel uncomfortable, but the heavy blow of reality slapped them hard.
In six days...
They were in Yangcheng, and the market under their noses was completely caught up by [WeChat]. At the same time, they tried their best to give red envelopes to the ground salesmen at the bottom, but they still couldn't stabilize the people's hearts that had already been dispersed, or even worked without effort!
"Why, who of you can tell me why, why do we pay more money than Zhang Sheng, and our welfare benefits are better than Zhang Sheng, but why can't we keep people's hearts!"
"..."
Zhang Xiaoqiang rarely questioned the ground sales leader of [WeChat] from the depths of his soul.
The leader of the ground promotion, Zheng Dongsheng, lowered his head, his face filled with shame and frustration: "Boss Zhang, we are trying our best to protect everyone, but... we are not facing a single number, but a terrifying collective. The opponent's offensive is not only [ground promotion], but from all directions!"
This period of time is definitely the most painful period for Zheng Dongsheng. Even since the establishment of [Tengji Technology], Zheng Dongsheng has never encountered such pain.
After Zheng Huateng approved a large bonus for them, he immediately contacted the heads of various units and distributed the bonus as soon as possible.
After the bonus was distributed, the [ground promotion team] across the country was indeed active for a period of time...
However, this positivity turned into negativity, which was infuriating. I wish these greedy beasts would be skinned and pulled out.
Many people are like vampires, secretly earning three times the money from one job!
[Micro Chat], [WeChat], [Zhilibao]...
As long as they meet customers, they promote these three brands, and then, [WeChat] is actually the first one to promote!
"We are too late!"
"The pace of the Internet is getting faster and faster. They are all saying that if Zhang Sheng hadn't spent money, ordinary people like them who were at the bottom and had no future would not be valued by [Tengji Technology] and [Jiahu Technology] at all..."
"More importantly, Zhang Sheng's company had a very clear and complete promotion path last year. On this path, if you have a dream, everyone will help you realize your dream together..."
"The Spring Festival Gala is an example. How many ordinary people's dreams have been awakened by the masons and wall knockers who appeared on the Spring Festival Gala?"
"Moreover, how many executives under Zhang Sheng have returned from studying abroad?"
"To put it bluntly, about 70% Executives, they are all born in the mud!"
"Using dreams, ideals, and promotion channels for ordinary people to stimulate these people at the bottom, aren't these people crazy?"
"Boss Zhang, we lost. In fact, we lost since last year, when Zhang Sheng first issued the year-end bonus! We lost too thoroughly!"
"We didn't lose in the market, but we lost in people's hearts!"
"This [heart attack] trap that has been buried for a long time is an open conspiracy that people can't control..."
"What can we do?"
"..."
"I've finished my words, Boss Zhang. The loss of the market is no longer something we can control. We must first stabilize the country before we can resist foreign aggression!"
In the conference room, Zheng Dongsheng looked at everyone.
His series of words, like a slap in the face, slapped everyone hard.
This speech, unprecedentedly bold, like a rebellious speech, ravaged the entire conference room.
Zhang Xiaoqiang's face flushed and his mouth opened, but in the end, he couldn't say anything.
He sat on the chair, as if his body had been drained of its last bit of strength. He felt that the atmosphere in the entire conference room was becoming more and more oppressive and weird.
About ten minutes later.
The entire leadership of the [WeChat] project team left the office one by one.
Zhang Xiaoqiang packed up his things...
and stood up.
When he walked out of the conference room and came to Zheng Huateng's office, he saw Zheng Huateng with his back to him, looking down into the distance.
"I'm sorry..."
Zhang Xiaoqiang lowered his head.
Zheng Huateng still had his back to him, as if he hadn't heard anything, never responded, and couldn't feel any emotions.
Zhang Xiaoqiang became more and more uneasy and panicked.
This strange state lasted for nearly a few minutes before Zhang Xiaoqiang saw Zheng Huateng turn his head.
"How many downloads and registrations has [WeChat] had?"
"154 million."
"What about [WeChat]?"
"154 million..."
"..."
Zhang Xiaoqiang opened the data list on his computer with great difficulty, and when he saw that [WeChat] and [WeChat] were completely equal at this moment...
His throat suddenly seemed to be blocked, and he lowered his head.
Zheng Huateng's lips moved slightly.
There was no anger, no roar, and no sudden outburst like a tidal wave.
He just nodded silently, and finally sat down on his chair, stretched out his hand to take a piece of data provided by Zhang Xiaoqiang, and looked at it carefully.
Time passed by little by little.
The sunset outside the window gradually set, and the afterglow finally turned into sunset glow, and then the earth gradually disappeared into darkness.
Lights came on one by one.
On the road in the distance, figures were flowing one after another.
"From now on, we have become the pursuers... But it is also history repeating itself..."
Zheng Huateng said this faintly.
"Do you remember how many times [Q Dog] was surpassed? We defeated UC's instant messaging software, defeated MSN, and defeated Fetion... This time, we met a very strong opponent again, but he is just a very strong opponent, that's all."
"..."
"However, even at the last moment, we are still the overlord in the social field. Our [Q Dog] has nearly 800 million registered users and 170 million daily active users..."
"..."
When Zheng Huateng said this, he stood up and patted Zhang Xiaoqiang on the shoulder.
"During this period, I know you have a lot to say to me. Today, we will not talk about work, but just talk. You can tell me anything you want to say..."
"..."
Zhang Xiaoqiang was shocked.
He seemed to have never seen Zheng Huateng show such a gentle expression.
But...
The gentler Zheng Huateng was and the easier he spoke, the more Zhang Xiaoqiang realized that [WeChat] had officially reached a life-or-death situation.
………………………………
"As of 7 o'clock in the evening, [WeChat] lost...From now on, [Tengji Technology] still only has [Q Dog] in the field of Internet social networking..."
"..."
"We also lost. [WeChat] has more than 50 million bank card users, and our [Zhilibao] has only more than 50 million real users...This fission is too terrible..."
"..."
[Jiahu Technology].
Ma Yunhua looked at [WeChat] silently.
His emotions were extremely complicated.
A sense of powerlessness surged in his heart, and he sat on the chair and closed his eyes.
Next to him, Ni Xingjun was constantly reporting various situations.
They still have advantages...
For example, their [Taozhu.com] is still the largest online shopping market in the country, and the brands are still lined up...
But...
This is a sense of failure, and even more a sense of frustration. Since 2004, the invincible Ma Yunhua has never tasted that sense of failure again.
Inevitably, he felt a shadow shrouding him.
However...
Then, he opened his eyes.
"I am also reflecting on this. We have won many victories over the years. We have been successful in all these years... We have taken the influence of the Internet too seriously, but ignored the Spring Festival Gala, which is watched by more than 700 million people..."
"..."
"Now, it's good. WeChat has caught up with the preparations and efforts we have made in nearly 7 years in just 7 days..."
"..."
"I often remind others not to be arrogant. We should look further and higher, but inevitably, I have fallen into the vicious circle of arrogance along the way..."
"..."
"I hate Zhang Sheng. He is untrustworthy and despicable. Until now, I still hate him, but I have to admit that this time, Zhang Sheng taught me a hard lesson, and the tuition fee is enough for me to remember for the rest of my life!"
"..."
Ma Yunhua said these words faintly.
After listening to this, Ni Xingjun lowered his head and said, "Boss Ma, these things are up to me, I..."
"If you lose, you lose. How can someone who doesn't even dare to face losing succeed!"
"..."
Just as the two were chatting...
Ni Xingjun's phone rang.
Then...
He received a call.
"The iPhone 5 held a press conference in San Francisco, USA!"
"..."
When he heard the news, Ma Yunhua narrowed his eyes and suddenly realized that another point that led to the increase in the number of Zhilibao users appeared...
