Sprinkle coins every day

Furthermore, as an elder, Lao Zhang is also very optimistic about Cai Miaomiao. After all, he has the success of founding Miaomiao Bicycle, and he also wants to use this method to escort Cai Miaomiao's growth.

While chatting at home, Lao Zhang also revealed to Zhang Shuo that in the future, he still hopes that Cai Miaomiao can take over the Prodigal Son Fund.

It can be regarded as well-intentioned!

January 2, New Year's Eve.

This year's China Satellite TV Spring Festival Gala was named the title, and Ari spent a lot of money to win it, and used it to promote the fortune treasure red envelope.

In the previous Double Eleven battle, not only Mobao was strongly challenged by Pin Xixi, but also Zhifubao was slightly disadvantaged in the competition with Weixin Pay.

In Ari’s view, the rise of Weixin Pay is not unrelated to the success of last year’s Spring Festival red envelope event.Therefore, no matter what happens this year, Ari will not let Weixin win the title of the Spring Festival Gala again.

Not only Ahri, but Tenda also has ideas about the naming of this year's Spring Festival Gala. It even wants to reproduce the successful case of Weixin Payment last year and promote its Caifutong.

However, due to lack of financial resources, he was defeated in the competition with Ari.

It's really embarrassing!

But in fact, Weixin Payment has the foundation of last year's Spring Festival promotion. This year, even if it doesn't appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, it can still make a wave of presence by sponsoring the Spring Festival Gala of local satellite TV.

As long as the cash red envelopes sent out are real enough, there is no need to worry about no one participating.

After all, only the first to eat the crab is the one who can maximize the benefits.

In the follow-up, whether it is Ahri or Tengda, it is almost impossible to reproduce the success of Weixin Payment last year. Regarding this point, the original time and space has been verified.

Therefore, regarding the naming of the Spring Festival Gala this year, during the bidding process with Ari, Qinghe Group actually prepared sufficient ammunition, but under Zhang Shuo's instructions, it did not fight to the end with Ari.

It's not worth it to cheap satellite TV for nothing!

.........

After New Year's Eve, is the Spring Festival.

On the second day of the first lunar month, Lao Zhang and his mother flew back to Jiangcheng to visit relatives and friends.If you spend the Chinese New Year in Binhai City, if you don't go back to Jiangcheng during the first month, it will be hard to explain whether it is Grandpa's side or Grandpa's side.

As for Zhang Shuo, it was the first time that he brought his wife, Gu Xiaoxi, to pay New Year's greetings to Elder Tang.

"A man with a talent and a woman with a beautiful appearance, a match made in heaven, good, good, good!"

Seeing Gu Xiaoxi and Zhang Yiyi who was hugged by Gu Xiaoxi, Elder Tang seemed to be much younger. He also prepared a big red envelope for Zhang Yiyi, obviously treating Zhang Shuo as a real junior.

Also enjoy this family happiness very much!

Chapter 516 Hard Gang Pingguo, Who Is Paying For Arrogance? !

During the chat, the second uncle Tang Yi asked Zhang Shuo: "I heard that the prodigal son fund recently invested in a company called Tianke Real Estate. Is this to enter the real estate industry?"

The Prodigal Son Fund went from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, and every move it made naturally attracted the attention of all parties.

In particular, the registered capital of Tianke Real Estate is as high as 40 billion. Even if Tang Yi doesn't take the initiative to pay attention to such a big move, someone will report the relevant information to him as soon as possible.

"It doesn't count."

Zhang Shuo explained: "It was a startup project initiated by a cousin of mine. I want to plan and build a maker town in Guancheng, which will provide a full range of community services for freelancers."

"Your cousin, is that little girl named Miaomiao?"

Tang Yi has an excellent memory, and he still remembers the legendary story of Miao Miao's bicycle business three years ago.

"It's her." Zhang Shuo smiled.

Tang Yu, who was in the audience, interjected at the right time: "I really envy Miaomiao. She succeeded in starting a business in her freshman year and became a billionaire. In her senior year, her peers are still busy looking for jobs. She has already started her second business."

She also made some money by trading in stocks before, but it can be compared with Cai Miaomiao.

Well, no comparison...

"That girl Miaomiao just likes to make troubles, so I can only let her."

In front of outsiders, Zhang Shuo is still very protective of Cai Miaomiao, after all, he is the baby bump of Lao Cai's family.

Monday, May 2.

After Valentine's Day, the Spring Festival holiday has also come to an end, and employees have returned to work one after another.

Of course, it must not be back to the best condition so quickly. Everyone, more or less, still has some "Spring Festival sequelae", lazy and unable to lift his spirits.

During the small talk among colleagues, there are many topics that cannot be passed, such as "fat three catties, blind date".

The Chinese Internet is very idle, but it is very lively overseas.

On February 2, Crazy Field announced a global recall of 18 million vehicles because the seat belts of these vehicles may be damaged by the metal frame of the seat cushion in the event of a collision.

The prospect of traditional fuel vehicles has once again cast a shadow.

On the same day, ApplePay under Pingguo was officially launched in China, supporting the debit cards and credit cards of the first batch of 19 commercial banks, which can be used for online payment.

It can also be accepted offline at UnionPay POS terminals with the QuickPass logo.

The launch of Pingguo Pay seems to indicate that in the Huaxia payment market, a new powerful player will appear after mobile payment giants such as Zhifubao, Caifutong, and Weixin Payment.

A lot of fruit fans, and even have high expectations for it.

In terms of market share, Pingguo Pay can theoretically use the existing customers of Pingguo Mobile to increase traffic, but it still faces the challenge of path dependence of consumers' existing payment habits.

"For online payment, the core factor that affects the frequency of Pingguo payment is the payment scenario. For offline payment, it is the user subsidy that affects the frequency of use."

In addition, Pingguo Pay also has difficulties in promotion and organization.

Both Zhifubao and Weixin Payment have strong local promotion teams, and have clear assessment and incentive mechanisms.It is relatively simple for Pingguo to promote payment to banks, but it is not easy to promote it to local merchants, and it may rely on UnionPay.

But UnionPay also lacks corresponding manpower and expenses.

From a technical perspective, Pingguo Pay is a near-field payment (NFC) model based on a security chip.Compared with credit card contact payment, NFC is a contactless payment, that is, the user associates the bank card with an NFC-enabled smartphone, and then "clicks" on the POS terminal to complete the payment.

It is worth noting that the above process does not need the Internet, but uses the NFC radio frequency channel to realize local communication with devices such as POS cash registers or vending machines.

This is also significantly different from QR code payment.

According to Pingguo, the NFC mode can well avoid interference factors such as insufficient light and other factors that affect QR code recognition and poor network environment.

It can only be said that Pingguo doesn't understand Huaxia at all.

First, since it is a payment scene, it is difficult to have insufficient light.

Second, Huaxia has achieved full coverage of the 4G network, and there are few factors such as poor network environment.

So it's just nonsense.

The fact is that the NFC mode has no advantage over the QR code mode.In the original time and space, in China's payment market, the status of Zhifubao and Weixin Payment is almost dominant.

Pingguo payment is simply a flash in the pan.

In addition to launching Pingguo Pay, on the same day, Pingguo also revised the terms of the AppStore, saying that rewards through virtual currency should be regarded as in-app purchases, and Pingguo will extract 30% of them.

One year earlier than the original time and space.

This undoubtedly caused great waves on the Chinese Internet.

You must know that "rewarding" is actually a characteristic business model produced in the context of the Chinese Internet, and it is a kind of fan economic behavior, which is not very popular abroad.

Therefore, this policy of Pingguo is obviously an adjustment made for the Chinese market environment.

It's not ugly to eat.

Some companies chose to compromise, while others made fierce resistance.For example, UC directly announced the next day that it would close the reward function of the IOS channel as a protest.

.........

On February 2th, Germination Headquarters.

"Chairman, look, how should we respond to Pingguo's adjustment?" Lu Qi asked for instructions.

As the largest player in China's Internet industry, Pingguo's commission for tipping will inevitably have an impact on the products of Mengya, such as the Weixin official account tipping function, and Pangda live broadcast.

In particular, Pangda's live broadcast is based on "rewards".

"Hasn't UC already done a good demonstration? From now on, the IOS channel tipping function of all products under the group, such as Weixin Official Account and Panda Live, will be suspended."

Pingguo did this one year in advance, which is directly related to Pingguo's poor sales of mobile phones in the past two years.

Unable to make breakthroughs in hardware, Pingguo naturally thought that if he wanted to work hard on the software side, he could also grab a wave of wool from Chinese software developers, so why not do it?

Unfortunately--

Pingguo overestimated its own influence and underestimated the resistance of Chinese manufacturers.

"In addition, let Pingguo inform Pingguo in the form of a public letter that Germination will never accept Pingguo's unequal treaty. If Pingguo does not make effective corrections, Germination will consider successively dismantling all of its various apps within the next three months. , including games, will be removed from Pingguo Mall.” Zhang Shuo said.

"This, isn't it too harsh?"

Lu Qi felt a little apprehensive. The various apps under Germination are among the top [-] most downloaded apps, accounting for more than one-third of the app stock of many Pingguo users.

If you really want to remove all of them, then Pingguo is almost the same as a brick.

Of course, this kind of decisive confrontation may also give competitors such as Ahri and Tenda an opportunity to seize the market share of the products of Sprout on the IOS side.

The final result is likely to be both Germination and Pingguo.

"To deal with an arrogant company like Pingguo, we have to use ruthless tactics. Don't worry, I speculate that Pingguo is unlikely to break with us." Zhang Shuo said.

The proportion of Pingguo users in China's mobile phone user base is already less than 10%.

That means—

Even if Pinguo really resists, the loss is acceptable to Germination.

"I hope Pingguo can be braver. In that case, the last batch of so-called fruit fans will have to join the wheat camp." Zhang Shuo added with a smile.

Zhang Shuo's greatest confidence in making relevant decisions is to have the "replacement" of wheat grains.

Change to the original space-time.

Even if it is as strong as Tengda, he can only succumb to Pingguo's lust in the end.

"Understood!"

After being told this, Lu Qi also felt that there was a high probability that Pingguo would compromise.

.........

Sure enough, as soon as Germination's announcement came out, it immediately aroused enthusiastic responses.

"In this wave, my position is budding, and Pingguo's appearance is too ugly."

"That is, the rewards that people have worked so hard to get. Oh, Pingguo doesn't do anything, and just takes away 30% like a wild goose. It's too easy to earn money."

Although many people have complaints about the high income of network anchors.

But he hates Pingguo's behavior even more.

"With Pingguo's arrogance, it may not necessarily compromise. I really want to know, will Mengya really remove its app from IOS in the future? Then what else can Pingguo mobile phone do?"

Among other things, most Chinese people can't live without Weixin's product alone.

"Guo Fan is trembling..."

"Shake the wool, isn't it delicious to just replace the wheat grain X4?"

"reality!"

"Maili X4 beats Pingguo 7, and the key price is more than 100 yuan lower. Only those who have water in their heads choose Pingguo."

"A certain fruit fan: I always feel humiliated!!!"

In the past two years, the surviving fruit fans have become less and less. Even the little fairies who like the ultimate bright card and high-end products have gradually accepted the high-end setting of wheat grains.

After all, the domineering presidents in domestic film and television dramas basically use wheat grain phones.

It happened to be the weekend, and the most direct result of Germina’s announcement was that the Pingguo offline experience store became more and more deserted. In contrast, the Maili offline experience store was full.

It was a blast! ! !

.........

Beautiful country, Pingguo headquarters.

"Joe, did you see that?"

Flipping through the relevant news reports that were translated overnight by the staff of Pingguo Huaxia Company, Tim couldn't help but rubbed his forehead, feeling a severe headache.
