Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

Chapter 2428 The so-called popularity

The temperature in Yanjing has completely dropped. It didn't feel like winter yesterday. It seemed that it entered the cold winter mode overnight.

People who go to work in the morning cover themselves tightly. When they stop at the steaming breakfast stall to buy breakfast, they can't help but stamp their feet.

"The boss sent you a WeChat message."

"Okay, come back next time."

Just like Yanjing, which entered the cold winter overnight, the scan-code payment service that had been piloting tepidly before seemed to become popular across the country overnight.

People were surprised when they scanned the QR code to pay for the first time, and some even felt that this thing was unreliable and were wary. But once they used it for the first time, it was like opening Pandora's box and they couldn't stop.

After all, the pow-wow party has begun to spread now. Many young people may forget to bring their wallets or even their keys when they go out. But if they don’t have their mobile phones, they always feel uncomfortable and feel that they are missing something. They haven’t gone out yet and they have their mobile phones in their pockets, so they quickly go back and get them.

.

Some people say that a large part of the progress of social science and technology is due to human laziness. Human beings didn’t want to walk, so they learned to ride horses. They disliked riding horses too slowly, so they got cars. Cars still felt too slow, so they got airplanes and high-speed rails.

Therefore, many times whether a product sells well depends on its quality. Whether it becomes popular depends on whether it is convenient to use or makes people feel more convenient.

In the last life, Alipay took the lead in setting off the craze of QR code payment, and instantly became the king in this field. Looking around, Ma Fengyun could not see his opponent even with a telescope.

However, WeChat, which came from behind, seemed to be an imitator. From time to time, it was used by people to complain about plagiarism, but in the end, it was overtaken by Alipay.

Do you think this is because WeChat Pay is more technologically advanced than Alipay? Obviously this is not the reason. The real reason why WeChat surpasses Alipay is because of convenience.

WeChat is a chat software, and everyone has to open it many times a day, so using WeChat to pay is not a big deal. Alipay is different. Alipay is a payment software, and no one uses it to chat with friends like using WeChat.

This means that when you use Alipay, you need to open it separately to scan the code, which instantly feels a bit slow. But in fact, there is essentially no difference between the two.

When you use WeChat to pay, you also need to open the WeChat area and scan the QR code, so both types of payment require opening a software, and the operation process is not more convenient than the other.

But because WeChat is opened countless times a day, it has become a habit to open it casually. Therefore, everyone feels that it is more convenient to use WeChat, and then just because of this convenience, WeChat catches up.

In addition to the convenience and surprise it creates, a lot of capital is also guiding people's thinking and thus guiding the trend.

For example, in the past, many keychains were very popular, and many people liked to hang their keys on their waistbands. Some car owners who drove good cars liked to hang their keys on their waistbands to show off.

There was a time when mobile phone bags were very popular, especially the ones that hang around the waist. When mobile phones first came out, they were very popular. Why?

Because at that time, mobile phones were a symbol of status. How could you show off if you bought a mobile phone and carried it in your pocket so that no one could see it? Get a mobile phone bag and hang it on your waist, which instantly made you look like a boss.

But why are these two things rarely seen done now?

Is it because the keychain is not easy to use, or is it the mobile phone bag that is inconvenient to use?

No, the key chain is hung on the waist and has a spring cord, which is very convenient to use and can prevent you from accidentally forgetting to bring the key.

The mobile phone bag is specially designed to hold smartphones and is very convenient to use. It is safer to put it and buckle it casually than to put it in your pocket, where it will fall accidentally and it will be easier for thieves to attack.

But why are these two things that are so useful suddenly no one uses them?

Because in the promotion of capital, when these two things are needed, the promotion is very high-end, such as some pretentious little news with luxury car keys hanging on the waist.

When these two things are not needed, they are directly associated with being a country person. This makes someone who used to look very cool and show off his status suddenly feels like a country person.

The thing is still the same thing, the key to the luxury car is still the same key, but a slight change in guiding thoughts can instantly determine the direction of the trend. And every direction leads to a lot of capital making a lot of money.

And at the same time of guidance, plus the fact that using your thing is really convenient and fast, then basically this product is invincible. WeChat payment is now in an invincible state.

After it became popular, not to mention ordinary people and small traders, all major merchants used it. Even the beggars begging on the roadside got themselves a QR code.

"Is there no problem with the connection between Sun Yang and the China Banking Regulatory Commission?" Yang Dongxu looked at the crowd rushing around in the morning, raised the window and asked.

Today he was going to visit an elder and planned to have breakfast with him, so he went out a little early. When he saw the smoke of fireworks on the street while waiting for the traffic light, he opened the window and took a closer look.

"No problem, all large transactions or abnormal transactions will be reported and handed over." Zhang Jing said.

"That's good. Just keep an eye on this convenient thing and make sure nothing goes wrong. Even if something goes wrong for a while, don't think about hiding it and just call the police. Then we'll see how the subsequent issues are resolved."

"Okay!" Zhang Jing nodded, saying that she would pay close attention to this matter.

After a new thing comes out and becomes popular among the people, making money is convenient. How to fulfill social responsibilities and develop yourself more healthily is related to whether you will be a hit or be able to operate stably in the long term.

Therefore, in the face of this kind of product that is used by everyone across the country and is traded and circulated by hundreds of millions every day, Yang Dongxu must also be prepared to guard against the possibility of some illegal persons targeting WeChat while ensuring that there are no problems with product safety.

Even if you can't completely eliminate it perfectly, you still need to report in advance and be fully prepared. Otherwise, not only will criminals take advantage of the loopholes, but those who have been staring at him and salivating may be able to direct and act on their own to gain leverage and bite them.

Therefore, many times when doing business, it is not only about how much profit you make, but also about how to better protect your profits. Otherwise, it will not be certain who will end up with your hard-earned money.

"You have a private meeting with the Banking Regulatory Commission at ten o'clock in the morning, so you need to give me a good time during this visit." Zhang Jing reminded Yang Dongxu while looking at Yang Dongxu's schedule today.

"Yes." Yang Dongxu nodded. Then he closed his eyes and rested, thinking about the topic after meeting for a while.

If it was just a courtesy visit, Yang Dongxu would not get up early in the morning, noon, or evening. The time would be fine.

So he had a request to get up early for this visit, and the problem was a bit difficult to solve. So he communicated with the other party on the phone first, and the other party said that there was enough time in the morning, so he got up so early.
