What’s Wrong With Me Being a Rich Man? - Chapter 242

Chapter 242 Comparison

WeChat has started internal testing, which means that the company’s market action is about to begin.

Yu Xing tried the Symbian version, Android version and iOS version of WeChat, and had text versions with technical director Ge Zhijie, secretary Lin Lingling and others for three consecutive days.

Then I found that the internal beta version really needs to be tested more.

For example, the Symbian version will run slowly or even crash from time to time. It is explained that the memory and processing capabilities of Nokia phones are relatively limited, so WeChat is insufficient resources, and the targeted solution is to continue to optimize the code. Reduce memory usage.

Most of the Android and iOS versions are adaptability issues and require more time to debug.

But no matter what, an instant messaging software for mobile Internet scenarios was made from scratch, which made Yu Xing and WeChat very excited.

In just one week, the office atmosphere in WeChat companies has been completely different. When everyone encounters problems, they no longer call people or look up to find people, but take out WeChat to chat.

Because of this use, the group chat function was quickly launched in the internal beta version 1.1, which then changed everyone’s office habits.

Pull a group, pull a group, pull a group if you have something to do.

In this way, specific usage problems will evolve. There are too many group chats and many messages will pop up. Should we do related blocking functions? How to set up the dissolution logic of chat groups? Those who are invited to join the group should do it. How to remind you…

Although there are references to mobile QQ, these detailed questions will form the face of a brand new communication software.

Yu Xing did not use his familiarity with “WeChat” to force it, because the experiences he was familiar with were very perfect in the hardware and system. He only gave the ultimate requirement – simplicity.

Is this function that needs to be added really a necessity?

If not, then there is no need to increase.

Does this setting that needs to be changed conform to a “simple” experience?

If it does not match, then change it in the direction of match.

As for why we have to take simplicity as the first criterion…

Yu Xing held consecutive meetings with the technical director, deputy director and five major group leaders and talked about his own ideas. First, it must be in line with the lightweight scenarios of the mobile Internet, and second, this is a more vertical user experience.

There is no need to be fancy, just to make the communication function particularly distinct.

Sunday morning, May 28.

While considering the situation in the President’s Office, Yu Xing smoked and looked through the materials.

After a while, Zhong Zhiling knocked on the door and walked in.

As soon as he entered the door, he couldn’t help but say, “Brother Xing, are you a little bit fierce in smoking recently?”

“Is there any? Open the window.” Yu Xing instructed him first, then distributed the cigarette, “Give me one.”

Zhong Zhiling shook his head and lit a cigarette, persuading: “The cigarette box is written on it, smoking is harmful to health.”

Yu Xing laughed, and asked directly without any response, “How is it? How do you feel when you have used WeChat for two days?”

Zhong Zhiling uses the Android version of WeChat, and he has been an ordinary user identity these two days.

He thought for a while and replied, “It’s not bad, but it seems that it’s not bad. Well, I don’t really think about the cost of text messages when using my phone now, so, well, my evaluation is not bad.”

Yu Xing analyzed his words and said, “It’s okay to use it, it’s okay not to use it, right?”

Zhong Zhiling decided to be more tactful: “For me, it may be like this. You don’t have to take it seriously, and I may also use it casually.”

“It’s normal to be casual.” Yu Xing didn’t get angry about this little thing and thought, “People who come into contact with WeChat for the first time will have a similar mentality.”

The two smoked cigarettes and the office fell into silence.

After a while, Yu Xing discussed: “I plan to let WeChat users still be included in the college student group. What do you think?”

Zhong Zhiling only thought for two seconds before reminding him: “Brother Xing, it’s summer vacation soon.”

The summer vacation is coming soon, which means there are few opportunities for face-to-face sales.

According to the previous experience of working in Guiai.com, this will be a trough in entering the college student market.

Once you cannot face it, your persuasion and trust will be greatly reduced.

“This is a problem,” Yu Xing said carefully. “However, this is not like when we made a love contract, which requires money. The trust we need is not the same level. WeChat is free software now, and it can help them. Save money, if you can find a good entry point, I think even during the summer vacation, there will be a chance to acquire a group of initial users.”

Zhong Zhiling twisted the cigarette **** into the ashtray, walked to the window, and helped to think about the situation.

After a while, he said, “If WeChat can be launched now, I think I should make good use of the last half month before the summer vacation. This is a promotion issue and an opportunity for promotion. Once the holiday is on, the need for communication across the air will be Instead, it has been highlighted, but whether it is the club, the class or the dormitory, these college students must have established QQ groups, and their needs can be met.”

Yu Xing pondered: “How to make users switch software is a problem.”

He couldn’t help but draw out another cigarette and slowly pondered the situation inside.

After a while, Yu Xing said, “For the campus group, do you think it is more efficient to start with fashionable/small circles/money-saving needs?”

“How do you say fashionable?” Zhong Zhiling asked.

Yu Xing thought, “Just like I told you that time, QQ has been a long time, but it is too old. This thing is not fashionable once it is old, and new things have the characteristics of ‘time’.”

“For example… who can use QQ to find someone to promote on campus BBS? Now it’s all WeChat.” Zhong Zhiling thought for a moment and said, “You can recruit part-time publicity personnel on every campus, without focusing on offline, first We mainly use online publicity, including Renren.com… I think since it is an internal test, we should focus on collecting problems and improving from the beginning.”

Seeing that the senior brother didn’t say anything, he continued, “If we can have a good start, we can let them communicate with parents with new software when school starts, and then push and pull new feedback. As long as we pull new people, we can get points or Small gifts or something.”

Seeing that the senior brother was still not moving, Zhong Zhiling quickly patched: “Brother Xing, I’m just chatting, just listen, I haven’t studied the product carefully after all.”

“No, I’m thinking, I really can’t be impatient.” Yu Xing shook his head and said seriously, “The internal test focuses on collecting problems and improving. I really can’t just think about everything from the beginning.”

He also said: “WeChat needs to be acquaintance social links. In fact, it can create more good functions, but it does need to be steady and steady.”

Yu Xing vaguely knew that products like WeChat only grew rapidly after the voice function appeared. In addition, drifting bottles and shaking also made it particularly popular.

WeChat has just been born now, so we can’t rush to unveil all the functions. Let college students help with feedback on the product first.

“If the functions are really good, we can replicate our original experience when the school starts in autumn.” Zhong Zhiling said, “But these functions… do have characteristics.”

The reproduction of experience is not complicated. It is nothing more than paying for people, but it is more difficult to have features and in line with reality. Yu Xing only said “hmm” about this, thinking about the dedication and progress.

After a moment, he reflected again: “You can’t be too hasty, the more you are, the easier it is to make mistakes.”

When Zhong Zhiling heard this, he persuaded him: “Brother Xing, it is mainly because the pressure on potential competitors is too great, which inevitably makes people feel impatient.”

“Okay, let’s not talk about it. I will continue to try it.” Yu Xing put away the urge to smoke another cigarette, stretched, and smiled, “You’re going to have a break today, why don’t you go out for a walk? ? ”

“I made an appointment with Xiaoying to have a meal, but there is no hurry.” Zhong Zhiling said casually, “Brother Xing, have you seen that another company has been shorted by Shanfeng recently?”

Yu Xing remained silent: “Did you say I’m watching?”

The information sharing short selling of Kuoshanfeng has become the focus of the discussion on Bai Xiaosheng Forum.

In addition to the difference between this move and before, Chen Deyuan’s help and his reaction are funny, and the sudden loss of contact by the CEO of the company involved also makes people talk.

To this day, everyone has completely confirmed that Li Hanchun has indeed run away.

It wasn’t that he was arrested. After many inquiries, there was no information about him being arrested at all.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

On the contrary, as the probability of his escape became a fact, more inside stories were exposed in Huaxia Forest.

Although it was because of the mountain peak, everyone exposed the inside story and couldn’t find the mountain peak. Naturally, they came to the influential workplace platform Bai Xiaosheng.

This change of situation surprised Yu Xing, and what surprised him even more was that the inside story exposed by Huaxia Forest was completely beyond imagination.

—It is said that Huaxia Forest had serious financial fraud for two consecutive years in 2008 and 2009.

How serious?

It is so serious that more than 90% of revenue is fake!

With such a proportional fraud for two consecutive years, this is still a company that has just been listed…

If such news is true, it is no wonder that the CEO quickly disappeared after being named by the bears on the first day, and the scam is too easy to be exposed!

“Brother Xing, there are many people on the forum calling you to issue another chase order to see if you can find Li Hanchun’s whereabouts.” Zhong Zhiling said with a smile.

Yu Xing shook his head: “They don’t bother to watch the fun, once, twice, or three times. Whenever they encounter such a problem in the future, everyone will ask me for this, and we don’t need to open a website anymore.”

Zhong Zhiling smiled and thought it was fun.

At this time, a phone call from Lu Haiying came in.

Zhong Zhiling answered a phone call and was about to accompany his wife to go shopping. Before leaving the office, he sighed: “If a company with 90% of its revenue is fake, it can still be listed, so we will definitely be listed.”

“Go quickly. Think about it again in the future. Maybe we have encountered Shanfeng who has just been listed and shorted us.” Yu Xing said.

“Our data is very real, and we are not afraid of being investigated.” Zhong Zhiling smiled, “Well, it may not be necessary. There is no good thing for the bears.”

Yu Xing did not object to it and watched Zhong Zhiling leave.

He thought about it and sent Xiaoying a WeChat message: The CEO ran away, and his revenue was 90% fake. Have you thought of it?

Liu Wanying is the first software trial user, so she would reply happily: I was completely unexpected.

Yu Xing: You can’t even think of it, tsk.

Liu Wanying stopped going back. She was really surprised by the effect of shocking the enemy. Although there was no real evidence, Huaxia Forest had too many frauds, and the senior management was very guilty. They encountered three short sellings and successfully crossed the mountain and evacuated directly.

Huaxia Forest Holdings, which has just been listed for half a year, has been temporarily suspended by the exchange after a 90% decline.

There is no doubt that this Linmu company, which previously claimed to be the top three domestic businesses, has completely lost its value.

Unfortunately, these are all after-the-scenes observations, and they would never have expected such a bizarre collapse beforehand. Therefore, this time, it only added less than 3 million US dollars in operating chips to WeChat.

Yu Xing didn’t know if the new money was enough to support the phased competition with Penguin, but he was really desperately recalling whether there were any listed companies that were also suitable for short selling at the same time.

If you don’t have money, you can only find someone to beg for alms.

Two days later, Yu Xing sent the internal testing version 1.2 WeChat software to Liu Jiankai, vice president of Today Capital.

“What? Is this the software you made? Mr. Yu, is it so fast?” Liu Jiankai was very surprised after receiving the call. Although it was very fast from the beginning, he was still shocked to see the software installation package today.

“Are you fast? It’s June soon. We started to do it in March. Now it’s been three months of development, and I think it’s a bit slow.” Yu Xing was very serious, “You try it and see this How effective is it?”

Liu Jiankai hurriedly said, “Okay, I will definitely try out the instant messaging software from WeChat. Oh, if I don’t read it formally, I feel sorry for your efforts.”

The phone he used was still Nokia, so the trial version belongs to the Symbian system.

This is what it is…

The first impression is that the software is not big, less than 2M, and the second impression is that… this software is a bit simple.

Liu Jiankai subconsciously compared WeChat with QQ because he was used to the fancy settings of QQ pages. Now he felt that WeChat, which does not have too many buttons, was a bit strange, and it always seemed that something was missing.

He quickly added Yu Xing’s friend and sent a greeting message: Hello, Mr. Yu, congratulations on the release of the product.

Yu Xing replied: It’s just an internal test, Mr. Liu can give us more opinions.

Liu Jiankai decided to give a serious review, but WeChat, which has simple functions, has no good reviews at all, is to send messages, receive messages, send and receive again…

He used it silently for two days, and for a while I didn’t know how to describe this kind of user experience.

When Liu Jiankai put down WeChat and decided to think about how to evaluate it, he went back to use QQ on his mobile phone, and suddenly found that the communication with his friends seemed to be as smooth as WeChat.

Half a day, it was not smooth enough, stuck, swallowed news…

Liu Jiankai failed to evaluate WeChat, but instead wrote an evaluation of the use of QQ on the notebook, and then fell into deep doubts.

Hey, why didn’t I feel this way before?

Who touched my QQ?
