Chapter 1467 Unabated Momentum
In the next two days, Europe and the United States slowly entered the weekend along with the time in Asia.
Not only has the value-added service of WeChat not declined, but it is spreading all over the world in a state of extension.
In three days, the four cute emoji packs have sold a super high sales of 200 million US dollars, and the expansion of personal space and Moments has reached as much as 800 million US dollars.
With such a total sales of 1 billion, on the one hand, people have seen the madness of these "boring people", on the other hand, many traditional industries have once again looked directly at the charm of online commerce.
"An online instant messaging software can sell a value-added service of 1 billion US dollars in three days, faster than Microsoft, and faster than Apple and Fairy Company. I am afraid that it can be compared with it, only the oil fields of the oil tycoons! Gentlemen and ladies Ladies and gentlemen, I want to officially announce to you! The age of great voyages in online trade is coming like a broken bamboo!!"
The central point of this well-known commentator's article from the "Wall Street Journal" represents the aspirations of investors and rich people.
Similarly, because of this extremely powerful sales data, the domestic media made a fuss even more, treating WeChat Company as a star like Fairy Company.
There are even some newspapers and magazines that compare WeChat’s value-added service charges with Penguin’s q.q membership fees back then, and then satirize Penguin’s suicide, and that WeChat’s company is powerful and domineering.
it is good.
These newspapers and magazines were also paid for, and they must have been done by Penguin's opponents.
Of course, we backed it up and said that Penguin's membership fee is indeed a bad move.
In the case of no money to maintain operations, they actually wanted to charge each q.q registered user at the beginning, but later found that it was not possible. It can only strip off some normal functions of ordinary users, and then give all the rights that should be enjoyed by ordinary users to paid members, such as game privileges, function privileges, email privileges, etc. .
This kind of stingy behavior directly suppressed the development of Penguin, if Huaguo didn't have a second instant messaging software that was powerful enough. I'm afraid they've already collapsed.
The mentality of not worrying about scarcity but about inequality is not limited to Chinese people, foreigners are also the same.
The biggest difference between WeChat and q.q is that its functions for ordinary users are powerful enough, and without value-added services, it will not affect any communication. You will not be able to speed up your speed after you pay, and you will be able to kick people. class privileges.
Value-added service is just an additional function beyond the normal use of WeChat. It belongs to the kind that you can enjoy more if you have money. There is nothing wrong with these. Anyway, I don't need your "four cute emoji packs" and "space expansion functions", and I can use various functions of WeChat very comfortably.
As for the rich, needless to say, there is comparison everywhere, there is vanity everywhere, and the practice of spending money to buy enjoyment is everywhere.
The only reason for them to spend money can only be that the value-added services launched by WeChat are so good that many people can't help but buy them.
It doesn't matter if you don't buy it.
According to the statistics of WeChat company, during these three days. The company's total downloads jumped by 100 million thanks to the buzz and coverage generated by the value-added service. Reaching 300 million, active users directly exceeded 100 million, reaching 110.49 million!
20.49 million active users have been added in 3 days, which is amazing!
Not to mention the registered users of the total number of downloads, that is meaningless, but it is just over a month. The number of active users has reached 110.49 million. Wechat's achievements are definitely limitless!
Especially in the past few days, as reports continue to heat up and people discuss various value-added services, it has stimulated people's interest in WeChat. Interest in WeChat value-added services.
Statistics show that among the 110.49 million active users, the proportion of those who have purchased value-added services is basically maintained at 16%, which is in line with the proportion of ordinary users of general software and VIP members.
Even after this month, these active users no longer have so many value-added service subscriptions for the next month. Calculated according to the safest 8% ratio, there should be at least 400 million US dollars of value-added service subscriptions. Based on this alone With just one point, the WeChat company's revenue and expenditure can be balanced, and it can also make a lot of money.
Such an estimate is based on the assumption that the active users of WeChat will not increase, but is this possible?
There is only such a software in the whole world that can make instant voice calls, send photos, and chat with multiple people online just by using the Internet. Even Skype can only make voice calls, which is more sticky than WeChat. It’s much smaller—it’s only on the phone, and you can’t communicate anytime, anywhere. Of course, it doesn’t have much stickiness, and you don’t want to log on to WeChat all day long and sometimes when you have nothing to do. .
That's why even the most cautious analysts estimated a figure of 500 million active users for WeChat, and the most optimistic one directly exceeded 1 billion.
Now there are only more than 100 million active users, and how much value-added services should be sold when the number of users has increased by 10 times?
Such a large space for imagination directly makes almost all well-known funds and venture capitals salivate.
But it is a pity that when WeChat went online aggressively, most people knew who the people behind WeChat were.
For Xiao Qi, who is listed on the Fu Run Ranking List, with a wealth of 62.8 billion US dollars, everyone in the financial industry regards it as a joke.
Behind WeChat is Xiao Qi, who has at least hundreds of billions of dollars. Will it still be short of money? Will it still be willing to bring in capital?
Damn it!
How did such a big piece of fat fall into Xiao Qi's hands again?
Everyone is envious and jealous. At the beginning, some people laughed at her for giving up the golden hen for money, but no one said this in September, and in October, some people started to praise Tang Mingxiang, thinking that her vision was extremely sharp and vicious ——Affected by the sub-prime mortgage crisis, chosen girl received a total of more than 43 billion U.S. dollars twice. Both women are so powerful, Xiao Qi is really lucky! (to be continued..) ps: Chapter 2 is just a feeling. What we need is not all kinds of impetuous business, but the connotation of business. More than 80%-90% of the profits in the smart electronics industry have been taken away by others. What is there to pursue for companies such as Xiaomi? When will you develop your own leading technology and show us, okay?
