Chapter 653:Strategic Core Choices

The capital of Gangnam Province, Hangzhou.

Zhang Xiaolong led the team and is intensively preparing for the new version of WeChat.

In Liu Yun's plan, the new version of WeChat will be released with the new mobile phone YOYO Sky X1.

Importantly, with the help of Google's technical staff, its compatibility with Android has greatly improved.

This will be an amazing app.

"Little dragon, today's Youxin is not a very popular product, but it will be soon."Liu Yun flashed some excited eyes.

“Indeed.”Zhang Xiaolong paused for a moment and said, "I believe that with the release of this version, Yo-Fun will enter the public eye, and it will no longer be a small and noisy product."

Liu Yun slightly looked up at the ceiling and said, "If you are successful, I think Tencent must have an idea, and most of them will be able to do the same."

Zhang Xiaolong pondered for a few seconds and said, “My experience at Tencent told me that it was not so easy.”

Liu Yun did not understand the meaning of his words for a moment, and hurriedly asked: "Say the details."

Zhang Xiaolong was calm, saying word by word: "The products imitated by Tencent in the past have basically proved their value on the market, but they have not, so they can draw the hoist as they are, as is done."

However, there is some overlap between the function of Youxin and QQ.Their next move was a bit intriguing.”

Liu Yun was a little curious: “How is it intriguing?”

Zhang Xiaolong smiled slightly and said: "QQ has always been Tencent's core product, and all their strategies revolve around this fulcrum."If Tencent wants to launch products similar to Youxin, it is an unknown how much attention first there will be.

This is like their QQ computer butler, which is a chicken rib-like product that does not pose a threat to our yo-yo security guards.

What matters is their importance.For example, people in the QQ product department will not want a new product to replace them."

Liu Yun is very clear that the Zhang Xiaolong in front of him was once known as the strongest product manager in another time and space.

Although there are many secrets that are not understood by outsiders, he is convinced that Zhang Xiaolong should spend a lot of thought in order to promote WeChat.

Especially around 2015, after the growth of WeChat, and QQ to achieve completely separated from become an independent product, during this period also do not know how much experience.

"I generally understand what you mean."Liu Yun said somewhat suddenly, "If Tencent launches similar products, how to locate is critical."Even insiders of the company are unwilling to threaten the existence of QQ.”

“Yes!”Zhang Xiaolong paused for a few seconds and added, "Even on the mobile end, they are unlikely to give up the strategic deployment with QQ as the core so quickly, so most of them will think about how to improve the social interaction of QQ in the mobile segment."

After listening to Liu Yun, he nodded his head meaningfully.

When these two people, in order to the future of Yuxin, are making plans, Tencent, who is far away in the deep city, is still in full swing to open the company meeting.

Ma Huateng pointed to the product in the projection screen - Yuxin, said: "Although among the many APP products, its ranking is not in the forefront, but I think Yoyo, or Liu Yun's emphasis on it is unique."

Sitting on the stage, Zhang Zhidong frowned and asked, “Why do you see it?”

He took a sip of water, moistened his voice, and said, “Because just to believe in this project, Liu Yun specially built an office building in Hangzhou.”This is not available in other app products.”

Zhang Zhidong did not agree, and replied: "That is not necessarily, such as Weibo also has an independent office building in Shanghai."Of course, its shareholders are not only melodious, but also Sina."

In fact, the purpose of saying this is only to refute.

Hearing the words of Weibo, Little Marco's face flashed a hint of inexplicable complexity, and he could not help but look at Li Dong, who was sitting in the distance.

At first, he was optimistic that after the operator of Weibo changed from yo-yo to Sina, this was an opportunity for Tencent.

What knows Sina this has already ended, and has not been in his eyes of the old Internet company, even the micro-blog business is colorful, there are many stars have opened a personal authentication account, there are many water army every day with the rhythm, pull up the popularity of micro-blog.

Under the operation of Sina, the gap between the two companies has not only not narrowed, but has become larger and larger.

"I've already spent a lot of money, and I'm not willing to give up like that."My little brother thought in his mind.Losing to Yoyo is acceptable, but if even Sina loses, it is really difficult to accept.

He retracted his thoughts and continued: "I have noticed this product, the potential is there, it is like another form of texting, can only be limited to the addition of friends to each other, in order to send messages."Of course, its function is much richer.”

Zhang Zhidong listened and said, “Indeed, I have also observed this product, and I have done a good job.”But it has functions, QQ basically has.A little bit of that is the voice function, which I'll perfect in the new version."

Little Ma Ge sighed for several seconds and asked, “Chi Dong, do you think that Yuxin and QQ will form a competition?”

Zhang Zhidong looked down and mused for a while, he replied: "On the PC side, I believe that QQ is invincible; as for the mobile terminal, Youxin is a new product, and our QQ in the mobile terminal and the PC account is shared, you can by the way, the PC side of the user flow, our advantage is still very large."

Little Marco turned around, looked at the projection screen for a long time, and suddenly said: "In the past, for a while, I have been thinking about whether to set up a similar product, and now I think this can be slowed down for a while."

He looked around at some of the management here and continued: “According to the news I have, Yoyo is preparing for a strategic shift in 2010 and focusing on the mobile side.I don't think we can't fall behind people, not that the PC side is not important, but the mobile side will be our next priority."

After the meeting, Xiaomao alone called Zhang Zhidong to his office.

"Are you worried that there will be a product to replace the core position of QQ."When he was in his seat, he asked straight to the door.

"Don't you have that kind of worry?"Zhang Zhidong smiled bitterly and replied, "Tencent can have today can not be separated from QQ, even those profitable online games, but also inseparable from QQ's drainage."Therefore, in the era of mobile Internet, QQ should still be the core of our strategy.

Looking at Xiaomao's silence, he continued: "If you want a new product to replace QQ as the new core of mobile, you may face many unknown risks."

Little Brother said, “I understand your concern.Even on the mobile side, QQ's advantages are still obvious, and its huge number of users can be seamlessly switched to mobile phones.In this way, you go to design a program, how to enrich the functions of the mobile version of QQ, increase social interaction.

“Understood!”Zhang Zhidong realized that he had to make some good planning to really convince the boss, even if the boss has a lot of bias towards QQ.

He believes that neither Weibo nor Youxin can replace the core position of QQ.
