Chapter 16 Smearing YY

"As we expected, both Internet Genie and Netpager are copying the functions of our YY software.

The Internet Genie has 90 percent of our features, while Netpager has only 80 percent, and it looks crudely made. From this point of view, what they said in the post is complete nonsense and should not pose any threat to us. ”

Regarding the blatant plagiarism of the two companies, Feng Jing said very angrily.

Zhou Xuan showed an expected look and said lightly.

"Stay tuned and keep you updated on their registrations. Although it feels like it has no effect on YY, we also need to be careful not to be hacked. If they dare to hack their YY software in the forum, then we can't sit still. ”

Although Zhou Xuan didn't take these two software into account, "if people don't offend me, I won't offend people", Zhou Xuan still knows this truth.

Zhou Xuan still gave an order, if Polaris Software really dared to hack YY, then he would not let them have a good time.

On the last day of 1998, two instant messaging apps, Internet Genie and Netpager, were launched simultaneously in the early hours of the morning after several days of publicity and heated discussions.

The next morning, major tires and websites reported on the launch of the two instant messaging apps.

Whoosh Fox issued a report in the morning, directly explaining the testing of the three software. It is pointed out that the two software of Internet Genie and Network Pager are obviously plagiarized from the instant messaging software YY that was launched one step earlier, and there is no innovation in terms of function.

Xinlang is also, overall, obviously optimistic about YY, thinking that if only by virtue of the current situation, it will be difficult for Internet Genie and Netpager to catch up with YY. After all, with the advantages of the first Chinese instant messaging software and good user experience, YY has more than 390,000 registrations on December 30.

Compared with the reports of Whoosh Fox and Xinlang, the report on Wangyi's side is obviously dissatisfied with YY.

"Today, two more excellent domestic Chinese instant messaging software have entered the market, setting off a three-way war in the instant messaging software market. The newly launched software is the Internet Genie launched by Jinling Polaris Software Company and the network pager launched by Imperial Capital Yifang Company, which is comparable in function to the YY software launched by Huanyu Technology Company last month.

But the Internet Genie also has its own characteristics, such as the ability for users to upload their favorite photos as their avatars. We learned through random interviews that many users who have downloaded the Internet Genie software are very happy with the software.

When we called Polaris Software, we got a more accurate number of registrations. As of 9 o'clock in the morning, it was only nine hours, and the number of registrations of Internet Genie had exceeded the 10,000 mark. It's even hotter than the first day of YY last month, and it's unbelievable. Being able to obtain so many registrations is believed to be the embodiment of all user-oriented aspects of Internet Genies.

……”

At the same time, there were also many posts praising the Internet Elf on various forums, which simply praised the Internet Elf to the sky. At the same time, there are also some posts that use the so-called comparison, magnifying some of YY's inconsequential shortcomings, and one-sidedly exaggerating the advantages and advantages of Internet Elves.

Such posts and articles are very misleading to some users who have not yet registered with YY, so that they choose to use the Internet Genie software without knowing the real situation.

And the report of Wangyi also makes some people think that the Internet Genie is not much different from YY, or even better.

In the office of Jinling Polaris Software, Wang Yue said to Wu Lin with a smile.

"Mr. Wu, I didn't expect Wangyi to help us. We really succeeded this time, as long as our internet elves made a name for themselves. After that, the gap with YY is not too big, and even if you can't beat YY at that time, you can compete with YY. ”

Wu Lin was also happy when he heard the good news: "It seems that there is a bit of a contradiction between Wangyi and Huanyu Technology, but now it happens to be cheaper for us." Now tell me, is it true that our Internet Genie has 10,000 registrations so far?"

Hearing Wu Lin's inquiry, Wang Yue smiled awkwardly, and then said: "Although there is no 10,000, there are 5,000, but there are 5,000, and if you round it up, it is almost 10,000." ”

"Damn, it's only five thousand and five!"

Wu Lin almost squirted out a sip of tea, originally he thought that even if there was water, it shouldn't be too much.

Knowing that this is almost doubled, Wang Yue dared to say to Wangyi that the number of registrations exceeded 10,000, and if this was exposed, it would be strange if Wangyi didn't trouble them.

Wu Lin pointed at Wang Yue and said, "You tell me the truth, can our Internet elves defeat YY?

Wang Yue rolled his eyes and said in a low voice: "The current situation is that there is a certain gap between our Internet Elf and YY in actual usage. But this is not very big, if YY is like this, then after our Internet Genie is optimized, it will definitely be able to catch up with Huanyu Technology. ”

Wu Lin's eyes widened, and he gave Wang Yue a roll of his eyes: "Do you think Huanyu Technology will wait for you to surpass and not update the version?"

"This, of course, is impossible. Wang Yue sneered, "So we can only use some tricks to make YY's reputation stink." Since Wangyi doesn't like Huanyu Technology, I think the boss can contact Wangyi. The two of us will work together to get YY down. ”

When Wu Lin heard this, he thought for a while and said, "Okay, let's do it." I'll contact Wangyi now, and you should speed up the pace and try to pour more dirty water on YY. ”

"I've arranged it a long time ago, and I'm doing it now. Wang Yue smiled predictably.

……

The reports of Whoosh Fox, Xinlang, and Wangyi, as well as the situation of various forums, were noticed by the employees arranged by Feng Jing when they appeared for the first time. Then it was quickly reported to Feng Jing, and after Feng Jing saw these reports, he immediately scolded in his heart.

"These people are really starting to hack us. This net billion is too shameless, and I believe that it will break 10,000 in a few hours. ”

Then Feng Jing reported it to Kuang Yufei, and then the two analyzed the source of these posts through technical means. With their technology, it naturally didn't take long to know that the source of these posts was Jinling.

Kuang Yufei said coldly: "Sure enough, it was Polaris Software Company that did it, which is too shameless." ”

"Do we want to go back to the hack?" Feng Jing saw that Polaris not only copied YY, but also smeared YY, and suggested fiercely.

Kuang Yufei waved his hand and said, "No, it's easy to be caught." In this case, I told the employees of our company to post and put the facts out so that everyone could see what kind of software Internet Genie is.

At the same time, mobilize everyone's YY friends to go to those posts to leave messages, and we want to drown them with facts. ”
