Goose Factory's worries are not unreasonable. They are both investment companies under Qunxing Capital, and they are both the largest shareholders of these two companies, with a shareholding ratio of more than two-thirds.

Choosing to launch the TOS version is also a gamble for Goose Factory.

Just bet that Qin Feng of Xingyu Technology will not do that. If he really does that, it will inevitably deal a heavy blow to the TOS ecosystem, which is still not stable.

Xu Jingren, who is in charge of Quantum Beat, really hopes that Qin Feng can take Weichat off the shelves, so that there will be one less competitor.

But Goose Factory was right.

Qin Feng did not risk damaging the reputation of the TOS ecosystem for the sake of Quantum Beat’s WeChat. Although Qunxing Capital gave the Quantum Beat WeChat team a lot of assists, the normal launch of Goose Factory’s WeChat will not stop it.

If Qin Feng does this, it will inevitably make other developers worry about the TOS system, which is obviously extremely detrimental to the construction of the TOS ecosystem.

...

But at this moment, Fang Hong successfully installed Goose Factory 1.0 version of Weichat on his mobile phone, and immediately experienced this app. According to the evaluation of industry insiders and users, this is a "low-end copycat version" of WeChat.

The interface and functions of the Weichat version 1.0, which was initially launched, are simple, even rudimentary.

The current version of Weichat only supports importing existing contact information through QQ numbers, and only provides simple functions such as instant messaging, sharing photos and changing avatars.

It's really rushed!

There is no way, Quantum Beat’s WeChat is running wildly all the way, and Goose Factory can’t wait.

In reality, the 1.x iteration of Weichat will launch the Android version at the same time in more than half a month, and will also support the automatic association of contacts in the mobile phone address book and the multi-person conversation function.

Even if the so-called 1.x version is launched, it is still not as good as Quantum Beat's WeChat, at least the WeChat QR code scanning function has not yet appeared in the Weichat 1.x version iteration.

However, version 2.0 of the WeChat team under Quantum Beat has already been prepared, but it is still in the process of "squeezing toothpaste". Woolen cloth.

When they finish copying, they will launch version 2.0 immediately and continue to lead.

The WeChat version 2.0 update will introduce a new function of "find people nearby", which is a trump card, because this function can be called a "artifact of about X" level.

In the update content of version 2.0, in addition to the new function of "find people nearby", new functions such as emoji expressions will also be introduced.

"Um……?"

When Fang Hong was about to close the page information of the Goose Factory, he noticed another news in the industry. It was the WeChat team under Quantum Beat that announced the latest scale of WeChat user registrations today.

According to the disclosed announcement data, as of January 20, the number of WeChat user registrations has reached 36 million, continuing to maintain an unparalleled growth rate.

Fang Hong couldn't help being happy when he saw the news. Xu Jingren didn't talk about martial arts at all. The Goose Factory just launched the product today, and he posted a bunch of data backhanded. This operation is in the heart of the Goose Factory.

Mr. Zhou, the leader in red, crazily praised Xu Jingren!

At the weekend, Xingyu Technology disclosed the company's 2010 annual sales data, which directly became the biggest hot news of the day, and the media rushed to report it.

According to the data disclosed by Xingyu Technology, the company's total sales in 2010 were 92.582 billion yuan.

As for the specific revenue structure, the company's first-generation smart phone product, the S1 smart phone, had a total annual sales volume of 22.203 million units in 2010, with a cumulative sales of 83.92 billion yuan, accounting for 90.64% of the company's total sales. business.

The second is the TOS application store, with an annual revenue of 7.832 billion yuan, accounting for 8.46 percentage points.

Then there is other business income of about 850 million.

The company's net profit last year was 13.6 billion yuan, with a net profit rate of 14.69%. Relatively speaking, the profit rate is still very low, even significantly lower than market expectations. After all, everyone knows that the profit of Xingyu Technology's S1 mobile phone is not to mention directly catching up with Apple. , but the difference is not big, at most 10 percentage points.

However, after reading the follow-up content of the announcement, everyone suddenly realized that Xingyu Technology had invested more than 50 billion astronomical figures last year in technology research and development alone, and the zero-interest installment payment of mobile phones was also a huge operating cost.

But there is no doubt that most of the research and development investment has been eaten up.

The outsiders are also dumbfounded. Xingyu Technology has really spared no expense in investing in research and development. No wonder it is so successful.

Some people even can't understand why so much money is needed for research and development?

This explosive data was directly screened all over the Internet at the weekend, attracting various media to report on it, and the mainstream media also reported it, evaluating Xingyu Technology as a model for the country's economic transformation and upgrading.

In fact, when Fang Hong saw the mainstream media elevating Xingyu Technology so high, he didn't really think about it. It's good to keep a low profile, but his strength doesn't allow him to keep a low profile.

With sales of more than 92.5 billion, it is hard to believe that this is the result of a company that has only been established for three years.

The annual sales volume of more than 22.2 million units also allows Xingyu Technology to secure its position as the largest domestic smartphone giant in one fell swoop. It is the absolute number one leading company in the industry, such as Coolpad and Xiaomi. .

The sales figures of 22.2 million units also surpassed the 20.7 million units of iPhone3GS released by Apple in 2009.

The most shocking thing to the market is the super consumption power of the Greater China market. You must know that Apple's iPhone 3GS relies on the global market, while the S1 mobile phone under Xingyu Technology only relies on the Greater China market. Dazzling report card.

According to the data released by the US market research company IDC a week ago, the global sales of smart phones in 2010 increased by +74.4% year-on-year to 306.2 million units, breaking through the 300 million mark. Among them, Apple's "iPhone" from the United States, Google's operating system "Android" and Xingyu Technology Company "TOS" from Huaguo have played a role in promoting the expansion of the smart phone market.

Xingyu Technology shipped 22.203 million units last year, and its share in the global smartphone market reached about 7.25%. Although there is a big gap compared with industry giants such as Nokia on the wall, its sudden emergence as a rookie has attracted global attention.

When Xingyu Technology’s behavior was swiping the screen on the weekend, Fang Hong also specially went to see the results of Apple’s iPhone 4, and he was very happy to see it. The global sales data of iPhone 4 in 2010 was 28.9 million units. The number of 39 million, a difference of more than 10 million.

Loosely speaking, in this life, due to the emergence of Xingyu Technology, Apple's iPhone 4 has been killed by 10 million units, less than a quarter of sales.
