Chapter 423: Just a Beginning
The most important thing is that the vast majority of the five million users, especially the two million new users who just emerged later, are players of several online games owned by Coslight Technology.
This also means that although these players and users may not know each other in reality, there is a close connection between them, that is, these online games under Coslight Technology.
Several online games under Coslight Technology have social functions. In addition to the stand-alone game "Plants vs. Zombies", "Running Kart", "Dota Map", "Journey", these three games can be called online games.
"Running Kart" has a team function, and in the "Journey" game, there are various social functions such as guild family.
As for "Dota Map", although there is no similar function, such a multiplayer real-time competitive game, there are always a lot of people who will form a fixed team, and it also requires a certain degree of socialization.
However, before this, these people either used the chat function to chat with each other in the game, or they communicated one-on-one offline.
For example, in the "Journey" game, when the guild or family in the game needs to carry out various activities, if you want to call other players who are not online, you can only call them one by one through chat software or mobile phones. Telephone and other contact methods for notification.
Some large-scale unions, even with hundreds or thousands of people, are extremely troublesome to notify, and they are likely to miss crucial activities.
This is extremely inconvenient for these gamers. However, the function of this chat group launched by the Flash Chat software has allowed many gamers to see another way of communication.
It is precisely because of this that the chat group function of the Flash Chat software has brought viral growth to the number of users of the Flash Chat software.
For example, some large guilds and some managers in the game "Journey", after using the flash chat software, carefully studied the function of the chat group, and found that they were ecstatic to find that this is simply a communication between guilds. 's artifact.
The Flash Chat software developed by Coslight Technology Co., Ltd. is mainly used on the computer side, but on the mobile phone side, the Flash Chat software can also be downloaded and used.
Although many wonderful functions cannot be used on mobile phones due to the limitations of current mobile phone technology, at least the function of chat groups can still appear on mobile phones.
This also means,
As long as each player in the guild installs a flash message chat software on their mobile phone, they can receive notifications in real time, and even eliminate the cost of text messages or phone calls.
And when you notify, you can notify hundreds of thousands of people at once, which is countless times more convenient than using other methods to notify.
And after they discovered this novel and convenient function, important members of these game guilds or families began to spare no effort to promote the Flash Chat software.
As long as a guild notices this new feature, it means dozens or even hundreds of new users.
After several hours of deliberation, after this update was completed and operations resumed, at 4:30 pm, the backstage statistics of the Flash Chat software showed that the number of users of the Flash Chat software had grown in a manner that was close to insane. Attitude, constantly climbing upwards.
Around 4:00, the number of users of the Flash Chat software was only about 6 million, but at 5:00, the number of users of the Flash Chat software had officially exceeded 10 million.
This also means that in less than 5 hours, the number of users of the Flash Chat software has grown by as much as 7 million.
Such a terrifying growth rate of the number of users, let alone the outside world, even those employees of the Flash Development Department of Coslight Technology Company were stunned.
With the increasing number of users of Flash Chat software, this growth rate has not slowed down.
You know, these online game player users, although most of them are based on the communication about online games when they first use this chat software, it is more convenient to consider. But in fact, these online game player users also have their own personal network in reality.
It is precisely because of this that the Flash Chat software allows them to see another brand-new social mode.
On December 1, for a whole afternoon, hundreds of millions of netizens in China began to be dazzled by this chat software that suddenly appeared in their field of vision.
Just when hundreds of employees of the Flash Development Department of Coslight Technology Co., Ltd. were concerned about the background data of the Flash Chat software, Chen Ping appeared in the office lobby of the Flash Development Department, which immediately attracted a lot of attention. Less attention.
For Chen Ping's arrival, even Qiu Wenhua seemed a little surprised, and looked at Chen Ping suspiciously. But before Qiu Wenhua came to Chen Ping to speak, Chen Ping waved his hand gently.
Then he smiled, passed Qiu Wenhua who was in front of him, came to the front of the crowd, and said with a chuckle, "Take a few minutes of your time, I have something to say."
Hearing Chen Ping's words, hundreds of employees from the Flash Development Department in the office hall all looked over.
Chen Ping also smiled slightly, and then said in a deep voice: "Everyone should have noticed that the number of users of the Flash Chat software has increased significantly in the past few hours.
According to such a growth trend, in a very short period of time, the flash messaging chat software is likely to become the second largest chat software in China.
But this is just the beginning and doesn't mean we've been successful. Because in front of us, there is a terrifying behemoth, that is, the well-known Tencent.
Tencent QQ, a subsidiary of Tencent, has dozens of times more users than ours. According to internal statistics made by Tencent a month ago, the number of users of Tencent QQ has exceeded 200 million.
The gap between us is still obvious. Even if we now have prospects that make everyone optimistic. But in fact, this does not mean that when we compete with Tencent in the market, we can achieve the final victory.
On the contrary, I think that in the next period of time, Tencent will be our biggest rival. It is not even ruled out that in this competition, we will eventually fail completely.
Even in our hands, we still hold more than a dozen of the most critical technologies. Holding a good card in hand, but this does not mean that Tencent will not have the power to fight back.
In my opinion, on the contrary, the strength of Tencent is something we can't compete head-to-head at the current stage, and the trump card in our hands can only narrow the gap between us and Tencent. "
Hearing Chen Ping's words, the hundreds of employees in the office hall began to look at each other, even Qiu Wenhua, who was beside him, was slightly stunned.
They have been following Chen Ping for a long time. Before that, Chen Ping had never said such depressing words. This is clearly to increase the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige.
For a while, a bit of doubt appeared in the eyes of many people. But then, Chen Ping smiled faintly: "Don't think I am alarmist, everyone, what happens next will confirm what I said.
However, I don't mean to discourage everyone's enthusiasm. I just want to remind everyone that this battle between us and Tencent is just the beginning, not the end.
For a long time to come, we will all be faced with a very severe situation, and if we take it lightly, it may completely ruin the results of our efforts during this period.
Therefore, I hope that even if we have achieved such an achievement, we will not take it lightly. On the contrary, I hope that everyone here can raise the spirit of 120,000 points and deal with a series of possible changes in the future.
Of course, I, Chen Ping, will never fight an unprepared battle, and I have already guessed and predicted all the changes that may occur in the future.
Although Tencent is powerful, it is not impossible to defeat. What we need to do next is to expand the results step by step and stabilize the situation.
In the next half month, I will often sit in Coslight Technology Company to make adequate preparations for the next battle. "
After speaking, Chen Ping also turned his head and glanced at Qiu Wenhua beside him, and then said in a deep voice, "Mr. Qiu, summon the middle-level and above managers of the Flash Development Department, and we will go to the conference room and have a simple meeting.
The others are divided into three groups. The first group keeps an eye on Tencent's trends; the second group pays attention to the reactions of other chat software companies in the market; the third group counts and monitors the background data of the Flash Chat software. If there is any change, come and let me know immediately. "
Hearing Chen Ping's words, everyone in the office hall nodded vaguely. Even Qiu Wenhua was a little confused.
Obviously, the current flash chat software is already a good situation. Even Qiu Wenhua dares to be sure that as long as this development continues, as the number of users of the Flash Chat software increases, the functions of the chat group will be developed to the greatest extent.
Afterwards, the Flash Development Department can invest in more than a dozen new achievements previously developed at one time. A variety of new functions will completely push the Flash Chat software to the altar.
At least in the chat software itself, the various functions and exquisiteness of the Flash Chat software are all above the current Tencent QQ.
With such a big killer in his hands, Qiu Wenhua couldn't think of any reason why he could lose in the battle between the Flash Chat software and Tencent QQ to compete for the market.
However, Qiu Wenhua would naturally not show any objection to Chen Ping's words in front of these ordinary employees. After nodding his head heavily, he quickly ordered the hundreds of employees of the Flash Letter Development Department to divide into three groups.
Afterwards, more than a dozen middle-level and above managers came to the conference room with Chen Ping and Qiu Wenhua.
After arriving in the conference room, Qiu Wenhua finally couldn't help the doubts in his heart, looked deeply at Chen Ping in front of him, and asked in a deep voice, "Mr. Chen, although Tencent is strong, it is not invincible.
Currently in Tencent, although the flagship product is Tencent QQ, in fact, the real strength of Tencent is its comprehensive development method.
Tencent, the most powerful place, should lie in their funds. As for the Tencent QQ chat software, compared with the Flash Chat software we developed, there are still some gaps.
And purely in the competition of chat software, I have full confidence that with the technology in our hands, we can definitely take down Tencent QQ.
Just give me three months, I can make the Flash Chat software completely replace the status of Tencent QQ and become the most popular chat software in China.
