"Brothers, I'd like to introduce you to a great instant messaging software."
"Wechat?"
"Well, you know?"
"I'll go. What else don't you know? This software has long been popular."
The most popular application software in recent times is wechat.
Many people can't believe it.
The already stable instant messaging market has killed a wechat.
You know, before that, many experts predicted that even if wechat was launched, it would not shake the status of MSN and ICQ.
This of course also includes those ordinary instant messaging users.
And at that time, many original MSN and ICQ users said that they could not use it even if it was pushed by wechat.
As for the reason.
It's also very simple.
They don't need to use wechat at all, because their friends, their Internet social circle and their life and entertainment all need MSN and ICQ. The cost of changing an instant message is greater than that of changing a phone number.
However... In just one or two months, more and more MSN and ICQ users have switched to wechat.
Or, if only the market share decreases, it may not be so serious for MSN and ICQ.
MSN and ICQ have a very large share in the global market, and the number of registrations is also terrible.
Even a short decline will not affect these two instant messengers for a while and a half.
And now even if it is pushed by wechat, the market share of MSN and ICQ has not decreased much.
Investigate the reason.
That is, although many users use wechat, they still use MSN and ICQ.
That is, before they used only one instant messaging software, now they use only two instant messaging software.
But some things, once changed, are more serious than the decline in market share.
For example, evaluation.
"I'll go. I'd like to recommend it to you. However, wechat is so good that everyone will use it."
"That's why MSN and ICQ have been too low recently. They are still Super enterprises. They have copied the functions of wechat products one after another."
"Yes, yes, wechat launched Voice SMS, MSN and ICQ also launched, wechat launched shake, MSN and ICQ followed up, wechat launched group chat without group number, and MSN and ICQ followed, which is completely plagiarism."
"Hehe, many people used to say that YY of Huanyu technology copied ICQ... Now it's really a slap in the face."
yes.
When a product falls into a plagiarism scandal, it will seriously affect its brand.
It's like QQ in a previous life.
Although QQ has developed very well, there are still countless netizens who have been saying that QQ is plagiarizing ICQ.
Now Feng Shui turns.
ICQ and MSN, which have been imitated, began to copy others.
This also lowers the two instant messaging brands to a certain extent.
"Shit."
Looking at a lot of online comments scolding MSN for plagiarism, Joseph, the person in charge of MSN, hated to close the web page.
However, although depressed, Joseph had to re-examine their MSN.
Up to now, MSN can't copy anymore.
Although Microsoft has started negotiations with Google on maps.
But Joseph knew that the negotiation did not know how long it would take.
Google and Microsoft have always been competitors.
Not only search engines, but also smart phone systems.
Google's Android also needs development, and they may not be willing to cooperate with Microsoft.
Although this is not necessarily impossible for the two countries to cooperate, it is also after dozens of rounds of negotiations that they really want to cooperate.
But with the current MSN, Joseph can't afford to wait for this time.
On the face of it, the number of MSN users has not decreased much, but this is only temporary.
Joseph knows very clearly that the longer you use wechat, the less time they will use MSN or ICQ.
Until later, it is even possible that they no longer use MSN.
This is not impossible.
Just as now, from Joseph's point of view, he thinks wechat is obviously more suitable for him.
He knows that this is because wechat is positioned to socialize with acquaintances.
However, MSN is not completely a stranger's social networking. A considerable number of groups take MSN as a necessity for life and work.
So.
Where are the problems?
Did they not follow up the map service quickly?
This is one reason.
But... Joseph shook his head. This is indeed a reason, but it is not the main reason.
Although the map service is good, it is far from possible for wechat to absorb so much registration in such a short time.
Joseph had to take out two mobile phones. He kept using MSN and wechat respectively. He wanted to find out the problem.
It's just a pity that Joseph didn't find the problem for hours.
Most of the functions of wechat and MSN.
Wechat doesn't have many functions. MSN has more.
But.
Why is wechat so confused now?
However, Joseph had to enter the major websites again. He wanted to listen to the opinions of netizens.
Although he knows that many netizens are scolding them for MSN.
But sometimes, such scolding will only look good if you harden your head.
"If I say, I think wechat will definitely replace MSN in the future."
"No, wechat has just been launched. Although it is very popular, it is impossible to replace MSN."
"It's impossible. Let's look at the innovation of wechat. MSN and ICQ can't catch up with each other. Moreover, wechat is not only innovation, but also has its own technical barriers. For example, as soon as the map service comes out, Microsoft and ICQ will stop. It's not that we don't praise the Gaode map of Huanyu technology here. NIMA is so easy to use."
"Even if Huanyu technology has technical barriers, it is impossible for us to give up MSN after we have used MSN for so long."
"This is just what you think now. What will happen in the next year, two years, three years? Everything is likely to change."
"Let's talk about it in three years."
Ordinary netizens don't have such a heart for the time being, but Joseph frowned even more when he looked at the forum messages of ordinary netizens.
Compared with ordinary netizens, he knows better that this is not impossible.
But what should they do with MSN?
"In fact, it's no use talking here, but do you think it's inconvenient to use MSN now?"
"No?"
"Let's say, which is more convenient to use wechat and MSN?"
"Let me see... It should be wechat."
"That's right."
"Eh, if you don't say I haven't found it yet, wechat is really more convenient to use. Is this the deeper design concept of Huanyu technology?"
"Of course, otherwise, look at how Huanyu technology rises. Their design concept is definitely one of the top in the world."
This is the discussion of a group of netizens on the forum.
Looking at these discussions, Joseph finally understood the gap between their MSN and wechat.
Their gap is not that MSN has no wechat function.
Nor is the design concept of Huanyu technology more profound than that of Microsoft.
Their real gap is that MSN is actually just a PC instant messaging.
There's a bit of a twist here.
Make it simple.
MSN was the first instant messaging software developed on the basis of PC Internet.
Although later, after the rise of smart phones, they launched a mobile version of MSN.
However, this mobile version of MSN only transfers the MSN function in the PC version.
That is, what functions does the PC version of MSN have, and what functions does the mobile version of MSN have.
Some of them are like Chinese software. They are completely copied from the past and will not change.
They didn't think much about the difference between mobile phones and computers.
But wechat.
He is an instant messaging software for smart phones.
