[Can WeChat Assistant challenge QQ’s throne in the social field]
After Xu Xing clicked on the hot search tag of [WeChat Challenge QQ], the page jumped, and the article that appeared at the top was this.
Seeing the thousands of likes, hundreds of comments, and a large number of retweets, Xu Xing felt a bit toothache.
He tried refreshing the page, and the number of likes immediately increased by dozens online. After refreshing it again, it was another dozen.
Almost every second someone is paying attention to this stuff.
"Have you checked who the author is?"
Xu Xing asked Peng Yuxuan while clicking on this article.
"This seems to be content written by an ordinary user." Peng Yuxuan said helplessly, "The screen name used is not the real name. Unless we can contact Weibo, we should not be able to find out the specific situation of this person."
While listening to Peng Yuxuan's report, Xu Xing turned his attention to the content of this article.
It starts with a violent argument——
[In the era of mobile Internet, QQ may be about to step down from the altar]
[I don’t know who can step on the corpse of QQ and ascend to the throne, but at present, it seems that the WeChat Assistant launched by Qunxing Company at the beginning of the month may have great potential!]
[As we all know, in the era of PC, Tencent carried QQ all over the world, and the 3Q war in the previous two years is still vivid in our minds]
[Although the reputations of Tencent and QQ were ruined by that battle, it also completely allowed Tencent's QQ to secure its position as the largest social software in the country, with a market share of at least 80%.]
[In this case, why do I say that QQ will face challenges and even step down from the altar? 】
【Because the era of mobile Internet is coming!】
[Many friends may wonder how the popularity of smartphones will affect the status of QQ? 】
[After all, Tencent had already begun to deploy the mobile version of QQ very early on. Although it didn’t pay much attention to it at that time, it has taken care of it in the past two years. The current number of mobile QQ users is estimated to be in the hundreds of millions.
】
[Originally, the author had this idea and downloaded mobile QQ early. The user experience is pretty good. It basically fully inherits the main functions of QQ on the computer]
[It seems that as long as QQ can continue to convert computer users to mobile QQ step by step, then QQ will be almost invincible]
【but!】
[After I downloaded the WeChat Assistant launched by Qunxing Company a while ago, it completely changed my view!]
[The author believes that as long as WeChat Assistant is given enough room to grow, even if WeChat Assistant cannot defeat QQ in the future, it will still have a good chance of dividing the world with QQ!]
[QQ’s monopoly on instant messaging social software will be completely broken!]
Seeing this, Xu Xing couldn't help but be a little speechless.
He, the founder of WeChat Assistant, doesn't dare to say such big words. Now he is promoting WeChat with the mentality that it doesn't hurt to give it a try.
If we can really take a piece of meat from QQ and occupy our own market share, then it will naturally be good.
But if it doesn't succeed, it can also move closer and develop towards a pure game promotion platform, and it won't be in vain.
Now seeing the author of this article boasting so much about WeChat, Xu Xing, the founder of WeChat, is embarrassed.
But having seen this, Xu Xing still had to bite the bullet and continue to look down, wanting to know how this guy was bragging.
[Everyone may be relatively unfamiliar with Qunxing Company, so I will briefly introduce it here]
[Qunxing Company currently has four subsidiaries, including the earliest Tianshu Game and Entertainment Company, the Qunxing Investment Management Company established in Kyoto, and the subsequently established Tianxuan Information Service Company, and Tianquan WeChat Network Company
】
[Among them, the one that everyone is most familiar with should be Tianshu Company, which is the team formerly known as Tianshu Studio that produced the popular Fruit Assassin across the country]
[Since then, this game company has successively launched two phenomenal parkour games: Secret Escape and Happy Run]
[At the same time, what many people have not noticed is that following the simultaneous launch of these two parkour games, there is also the "WeChat Assistant" launched by Tianquan Company]
[That is, the protagonist of our article today]
[For those who haven’t heard of WeChat Assistant, don’t worry, let’s first talk about what this software is used for]
[In the beginning, the main function of WeChat Assistant was not mobile chat, but a comprehensive game platform]
【What does it mean?】
[That is to say, as long as you download WeChat Assistant and register an account, all games under Tianshu Company can be fully interoperable with one account]
【Does this sound familiar to everyone?】
[Yes, some large domestic game manufacturers do this, and the one that does it best is QQ, a subsidiary of Tencent]
[Obviously, Qunxing Company’s ambitions in this regard are also not small. They have only launched three games and are already coveting the market share of the gaming platform]
[And you should know that although Tianshu Company has only released three games so far, they are all popular in the market]
[Fruit Assassin, domestic downloads have exceeded 40 million, Secret Escape 25 million, Happy Run 20 million]
[In recent times, almost all my friends who play mobile games have not escaped the harvest of these three games]
[And many of my friends download all three games and switch between them when they are bored]
[But the really scariest thing, in my opinion, is actually the WeChat Assistant hidden behind these three games!]
[WeChat Assistant can not only directly connect to friends on the three games, but also directly enable the method of adding friends to the address book, greatly expanding its potential user pool]
[And they also put a lot of effort into the interaction between friends]
[Not only can you check your friends' game score rankings in real time on it, but you can also open all its games with one click, and interact with friends through "invite", "share", "battle" and other methods]
[And once users start using the chat function that comes with WeChat Assistant, WeChat will have unconsciously begun to cultivate users’ usage habits]
Xu Xing held his chin up and saw this, his eyes gradually became serious, and he felt that something was wrong.
If you were just a simple netizen, it would still be understandable to make some violent comments.
However, being able to analyze the product logic of WeChat Assistant in this way is beyond the reach of a simple well-meaning netizen.
Especially looking further down, the author of this article goes straight to the core.
[Let’s take a look at the updated content of WeChat Assistant 1.2 and 1.3]
[Version 1.2 adds a voice conversation function, which greatly facilitates conversation interaction on mobile phones and provides more scenarios for how everyone chats]
[For example, when walking on the road, in the past, if you wanted to reply to a message, you had to hold your phone with both hands. If you didn't pay attention to the road, you would be in danger. It would be even more troublesome if you were holding other things in your hands.]
[But with the voice conversation function, users only need to press the button with one hand, talk and walk while looking ahead, without worrying about risks and troubles]
[In addition, I think this function is a huge boon for middle-aged and elderly people who are not familiar with pinyin typing]
[Today’s young friends may not know that at least among people over 40 years old, a large number of people who cannot pinyin definitely account for a large proportion]
[Although mobile phones also have their own Wubi input method, it is obvious that this is not as convenient as direct voice dialogue]
[I just recently recommended WeChat Assistant to my parents. After getting used to it for two or three days, I am now more proficient in using the voice conversation function to send me messages]
[I highly recommend everyone to give it a try to their parents]
[Oh, by the way, if the production team of WeChat Assistant can see this article, it is recommended to add a blocking function to the game rankings and real-time online]
[Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to be seen by my parents every time I play games]
[If I weren’t about to graduate and find a job, I would probably have my phone confiscated by my parents just like when I was still in high school]
Seeing this, Xu Xing couldn't help laughing. After taking a pen and paper to write down this function, he planned to discuss it with Liao Qinyu later to see if he should add it.
[Other than that, the thing that wows me the most is probably the “People Nearby” function that was just updated a few days ago]
[This feature can be turned on or off at your own discretion. Once turned on, you will be found by other WeChat users around you who also turn on this feature]
[And your list will also show the actual distance between these users and you. You can choose to interact with them, add friends, and even if you have a good chat, you can find time to make an appointment.]
[Of course, I already have a girlfriend, so I just briefly tested this function without going too deep into it]
[What really makes me feel great is that WeChat Assistant makes good use of their game resources. The nearby people function not only allows you to chat directly with strangers around you, but also invites them to play games]
[This is simply great news for those who are afraid of society]
[It is very difficult for them to greet strangers directly, even on the Internet, but if they just play an entertaining game without saying much, it is an easy way to promote mutual relationships and feelings]
[The previously trending Weibo sharing of "You can find a girlfriend by playing Fruit Assassin" also proves this point]
[To sum up, WeChat Assistant first accumulated its initial user base through the traffic of three popular games]
[Subsequently, through three version updates, we further expanded our user base by using three new functions: address book friends, voice conversations, and nearby people]
[Here, I can boldly guess that the current number of registered users of WeChat has probably exceeded 3 million!]
[You know, this is just the results of WeChat Assistant just one month after it was launched!]
[Similar to this kind of strong social software, the larger the user base, the faster the subsequent growth rate will be]
[It has already reached the level of millions in the first month. If there are no big surprises, WeChat Assistant may really be able to shake the solid foundation QQ has accumulated on the PC side! 】
After reading the entire article, Xu Xing sighed.
Originally, I wanted to have a good and obscene development and try not to be too high-profile.
However, there are still too many people with a keen sense of smell on the Internet. With the current size of Qunxing Company, it is normal for people to take notice of these small tricks.
