Chapter 1433 Sail out to sea

   "We can't draw dungeons as prisons!"

   In front of everyone, Xia Jingxing said decisively: "Although there will be many unfavorable factors in launching WeChat this year, we still have to face the difficulties."

   Everyone looked at Xia Jingxing in puzzlement, feeling that the boss's words were a little out of place!

   For a while, he said that WeChat could not be published for the time being, and then he said that he would rise to the challenge.

   Is it still published or not? Why is it more and more confused.

  Xia Jingxing noticed the strange expressions on everyone's faces, and explained with a smile: "I crushed all the unfavorable factors and spread them out in front of everyone, so that everyone can better understand the current situation.

   What I really want to say is that even if WeChat is delayed until the end of the year, the number of smartphone users in China will not reach 100 million, at most 50 to 60 million.

   Even if we take all these users, WeChat will not be able to surpass QQ, which already has 300 million users.

The social war between    and penguins is destined to be a long-term tug-of-war, and there are not too many coincidences.

   When the number of domestic smartphone users reaches 300 million or 400 million, even surpassing the number of QQ users, will we reveal the killer trick of WeChat?

   This is definitely not possible! Penguins are not fools. Even without our stimulation, they will still transform to the mobile Internet.

  In foreign countries, instant messaging applications on mobile terminals have been born, but the momentum is not big for the time being, but as long as penguins pay more attention, they will also notice this "social revolution".

   Therefore, there is not much time left for WeChat to develop.

  No matter what we do, we must always face the frontal threat from QQ.

  The enemy is not an NPC in the game, let alone a bunch of rice buckets. We simply can't be fully prepared before arriving on the battlefield.

   Therefore, extending your head is a knife, and shrinking your head is also a knife. If you don't have the determination to "beat the strong with the weak", then don't try to overturn the penguin from the social throne. "

Speaking of which, Xia Jingxing paused, glanced at Zhang Yong and Gao Lili, and said, "You two are both right, one asks to consider the issue of smartphone coverage, and the other thinks that it is necessary to take domestic or even my own. All commercial resources are utilized to offset the advantages of QQ's huge user base.

   Then how can we take care of all the problems? The answer actually already exists. "

   Looking at Xia Jingxing's gaze towards him, Zhang Dalong looked confused, should I answer?

  Xia Jingxing smiled at him, "Old Zhang, didn't I ask you to develop a PC-side WeChat together?"

  Zhang Dalong suddenly realized, and said, "Mr. Xia, do you mean to publish WeChat on the PC side first?"

When the people around    heard it, they suddenly felt that a new door had been opened to their own thinking.

  Yes, nowadays the coverage of smartphones is not enough, so let’s develop the PC side first. Each additional user is an additional strength for WeChat.

"Yes, in the first half of this year, the PC-side WeChat will be released, and users of domestic nets, Weibo, MOMO voice and even domestic games will be diverted to this instant messaging software as much as possible, so as to complete the first stage of combat tasks, which is to accumulate energy. , to bring together all the scattered forces of domestic holdings together.

   In the second half of this year, various manufacturers have released new smart phones, and the wave of smart phones should have reached a new height. At this time, the release of mobile WeChat is directly on the top of the mobile Internet wave.

At the same time, because it is the same platform, WeChat PC users can also migrate directly to the mobile terminal along a more convenient and fast channel, instead of switching from Weibo, Hainei.com and other products to WeChat, which can save a lot of money with fewer steps. development time.

  In the competition with penguins, every minute and every second is worth cherishing and making good use of.

   This is our second phase of combat mission to accelerate the development of WeChat. "

Xia Jingxing stared at Zhang Dalong and solemnly warned: "Old Zhang, you and the team have a heavy burden. After a month's rest, I need you to release WeChat on the PC side next month, and achieve 5,000 accounts within half a year. million registered users.

  The mobile WeChat will be released soon, and it will reach 50 million users within half a year.

   In other words, by the end of this year, including the PC and mobile terminals, WeChat must reach at least 100 million registered users, so that it can be called qualified to complete the two-stage combat mission.

   Only in this way can we have the confidence to resist the crazy counterattack of the penguins. "

   Zhang Dalong felt heavy in his heart. The difficulty factor of the task explained by Xia Jingxing was really not small.

   But he thought it was reasonable. The boss said everything was right, so he couldn't refute it.

  Because as the other party said, QQ now has 300 million users, and it will grow to 400 million users by the end of the year.

   At that time, the penguin came back to his senses and began to bet on the mobile terminal frantically. WeChat doesn't even have 100 million users, so it's impossible to fight this battle.

  Xia Jingxing saw Zhang Dalong's complicated feelings and comforted him: "I know that the task assigned to you is very heavy, but it has to be arranged like this.

  Whether the whole company can win this crucial battle that will lay the foundation for the Internet industry pattern for at least the next ten years, all hope is pinned on you and the WeChat team.

   But you are not alone, and the resources of the whole company will be tilted towards you this year. "

   "Mr. Xia, you don't need to say more, we have taken over this task!"

  Zhang Dalong raised his head and said resolutely: "It's just that we still have too few people, and we urgently need to expand a large number of people."

   "Don't worry, no matter how many people you need, I will find them for you. If it's not enough, I will directly transfer them from other departments.

   In the first half of this year, you not only have to shoulder the task of promoting WeChat on PC, but also cannot stop upgrading WeChat on mobile.

   You need to develop and store more versions of WeChat. After the launch of Penguin’s plagiarized products, we will accompany them to play a game of product iterations and drag them down. "

  Zhang Dalong nodded, he already knew the boss's overall strategy, he had no extra opinion on this, just completed the task given by the boss seriously.

   Zhang Dalong is such a person, who is not good at words, and prefers to be obsessed with product development and polishing.

After    explained to Zhang Dalong, Xia Jingxing turned his attention to the executives of Fuxing Industry and said, "We need your help in the third stage of WeChat's development."

   Lin Bing smiled and replied: "No problem, Mr. Xia, you can just tell me."

  Xia Jingxing nodded lightly, "Okay, let's finish this year's two tasks first."

   After that, Xia Jingxing announced the end of the meeting and left Zhang Yong alone.

   "WeChat cannot be trapped in the domestic market. I have said before that if there is a chance, Haihai Holdings will still rush out to compete with Facebook."

   Zhang Yong's eyes widened, he remembered that Xia Jingxing had said this kind of "big rhetoric" before, but... at the time he thought it was just a slogan to encourage the team, but he didn't expect it to be real.

   "Mr. Xia..."

  Xia Jingxing waved his hand and said, "I know what you want to say, don't take Facebook as your own family, it is not the same as Fuxing Industry and Envision Capital, maintaining certain competition is a good thing for both companies.

I also don’t ask WeChat to reach North America and Europe in one go. Let’s not talk about whether this goal can be achieved. Even if it is achieved, there will definitely be a lot of trouble, and maybe it will affect the development progress of WeChat in other countries. .

  I have one request for WeChat to go overseas, to win the markets of East Asia and Southeast Asia that are within easy reach.

  In Singapore, Garena will become our overseas partner;

   In Japan, SoftBank and Yahoo Japan will also become our overseas partners;

  In Bang Country... Bang Country can't do anything about it, you know that country, the xenophobia is serious, it's okay if you can't win it. "

   Zhang Yong nodded and said, "Okay, I understand, when will we arrange to go to sea?"

   "The sooner the better!"

  Xia Jingxing is now a little worried that it will be too late to go to sea and the market will be seized by others.

   In the past life, WeChat was too late to go to sea, and in the end, nothing was caught. Basically, only overseas Chinese and overseas Chinese were using WeChat.

   "WeChat's overseas development is only the first step for domestic holdings to develop overseas. As long as the bridgehead is built, our troops can be continuously sent overseas.

   Online video and music, online literature, animation, games and other businesses can all develop along this line.

   Therefore, WeChat must be successful in going overseas, at least to occupy the Southeast Asian market.

   If there is room left, then continue to expand to more countries and regions. "
