Rebirth Starts at 7 Million

After sending Mr. Wang from Meituan, Luo Fan held a conference call with Mr. Li from Baidu, Mr. Lei from Dami, and Mr. Liu from JD.com on the internal version of Xingchao.

After the four of them entered the chat, Luo Fan said straight to the point: "Everyone, I have received news that Penguin and Ali have joined forces. I am afraid there will be a big move."

"Mr. Luo, where did your news come from?" asked Mr. Li of Baidu.

"Mr. Wang from Meituan just came, and he told me..." Then Luo Fan told the three of what the President of Meituan told him.

"I didn't expect Penguin to cooperate with Ali, this is really..."

Mr. Lei didn't say the second half of the sentence, but everyone knew it.

Penguin and Ali have been fighting for an unknown number of years, and no one thought that there would be a day when the two sides would cooperate.

"Then what should we do?" Brother asked.

"According to the news from Meituan Wang, Penguin and Ali should want to occupy the takeaway and taxi industries respectively, and then compete with each other.

At present, the food delivery industry should let Meituan merge with Hungry?, and then let Meituan make the decision. For taxis, I guess Kuaidi from Ali is going to merge with Didi from Penguin, and Kuaidi should make the call. "

"Mr. Luo, I remember that you Xingyuan should have shares in Meituan and Hungry?" Lei asked.

"It is true, but Meituan's President Wang is not on the same side as Penguin and Ali. This person is very ambitious, and he does not want to be the puppet of Penguin and Ali.

He suggested to me before that he wants us to carry out another large-scale subsidy together, to wipe out all the small food delivery platforms, and then stop the subsidy, and leave the rest of the market to time.

I thought this proposal was a good one, so I delegated my voting rights to him.

Of course, it is only an authorization, which can be withdrawn at any time.

Mr. Li, what do you think of Mr. Wang's proposal from Meituan? If you are not satisfied, I can do what you want. ' said Rowan.

"No, if Penguin and Ali join forces, it would be too expensive for us to fight against them in the food delivery and taxi industries at the same time, so the best option is to stop subsidizing one.

I don’t think there is any problem with Mr. Wang’s suggestion from Meituan. As long as he keeps his promise, we can also stop subsidies. "

"Okay, then we've decided that, and then the next thing. This news was also revealed to me by President Wang of Meituan. The penguin's wx and qq are going to launch video calls and voice calls."

After hearing Luo Fan's words, everyone was a little surprised.

"Mr. Luo, are you joking? The Penguin wants to make video and voice calls? This is the cake that touched the three giants!" Lei said.

Rice is a mobile phone, and Mr. Lei is more aware of the power of the three giants than ordinary companies.

Penguin is so daring to make video calls and voice calls without fear of breaking the sky?

Luo Fan smiled and said: "Actually, there is nothing to be afraid of. After the advent of the 4G era, what the three giants earn is not phone bills, but traffic fees.

According to the current trend, data charges will be reduced once at the end of the year, and most mobile phone plans will have their own data. "

"Boss Luo, you mean that Xingyuan also wants to make a voice call?" Brother asked tentatively.

"That's right, aren't we using Xingyuan's voice calls now?

We have already prepared to release this function, but there has been no action from Penguin. I am afraid that if this function is released, Penguin will take the opportunity to suppress Xingchao together with the three giants.

It is estimated that the Penguin side is the same. They are afraid that we will unite with the three giants, so there is no action.

But now that Penguin is going to release this feature, we don't have to hide it. ' replied Rowan.

"Is Xingchao planning to release these two functions with Penguin?" Mr. Lei asked.

"Yes, at this time we need to resist the pressure of the three giants together with the penguins."

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Mr. Li asked.

Now Xingyuan, Baidu, Dami, and Jingdong are all grasshoppers on a rope.

Everyone is prosperous, and everyone is damaged. The challenges that Xingyuan will face next are a bit big, and the other three will naturally not sit idly by.

"The rest is nothing, it's mainly about public opinion! I guess the three giants won't give up this cake so easily, and they will definitely confuse the public. Whether the voice call of chat is free or not, we will need your help to clarify."

"If it's just online chatter, then we'll have no problem. I can even send a Weibo and play a voice call function of Xingchao." Dongge said.

"I can do it here, too," Mr. Li said.

"I can't do it. After all, rice is a mobile phone and is closely connected with the three giants. You can't offend them openly." Mr. Lei said a little embarrassedly.

"It's alright, I understand all this, Mr. Lei, you don't have to be under any pressure."

......

After the conference call, Luo Fan called Wang Jing and asked him to add the voice call and video call functions to the next Star Chat update.

Now the employees of Xingyuan are using the internal version of Xingchao, which already has the functions of voice and video calls. There is no technical difficulty in adding these two functions to Xingchao, and even testing is exempted.

But Wang Jing always felt that it might not be very good to launch the voice and video calling functions of Xingchao now. The three giants are not easy to deal with, and there are still penguins staring at them. Isn't this the handle to the penguins?

Just as Wang Jing wanted to talk to Luo Fan about this, he was interrupted directly by Luo Fan: "Brother Wang, I know what you are thinking, but this time we are not fighting alone, and the Penguin side has to take action.

We just need to wait for the update announcement from Penguin, and we can follow it. I don't think Penguin will fight us at this time. "

Wang Jing was stunned when he heard the words. He didn't expect that Penguin would also release voice and video calls.

Now Wang Jing doesn't speak anymore, because Xingchao and wx are now absolutely competitive.

At present, the remaining social software for strangers in the domestic market is the number of users of Xingchao and wx. Although the number of users of the two has gradually stabilized, there is still a risk of slowing down, so at this time Penguin launched voice calls and video calls, and Star Chat is bound to keep up.

A week later, Penguin really released a corresponding announcement, saying that in the next update, voice calling and video calling functions will be added to the mobile terminals of wx and qq.

These two functions only need to consume data, and you can make and receive calls without calling charges.

Xingyuan also followed closely and released a corresponding announcement, and Xingchao will also launch the same function in the next update.

These two announcements instantly detonated the network.
