Chapter 17 The heated discussion caused by "copycats".
December 31, 98, 2:15 p.m.
The official website of Huanyu Technology and the official website of YY Software also released the news that the number of user registrations exceeded 400,000 and the number of online users exceeded 25,000 at the same time at 2:13 p.m.
Ten minutes later, the Whoosh Fox portal reprinted the news and congratulated Huanyu Technology's YY software for creating another miracle.
Twenty minutes later, the Xinlang portal also reprinted the news that YY had more than 400,000 registrations, so that everyone had a deeper understanding of YY's popularity.
This news has simply given the Internet elves a head start, and the number of YY registrations has exceeded 400,000. You're only 10,000, so I'd better go to a crowded place.
However, as the first of the three major portals, Wangyi did not reprint the report of Huanyu Technology. Instead, the report that the Internet elf broke through the 10,000-person registration mark in the morning was put at the top, pushed it to the front page headlines, and increased publicity efforts and placed it in the most conspicuous position.
At the same time, another report was issued, which made a detailed report on how Jinling Polaris Software Company developed the process of Internet Genie.
It praised Polaris' determination to develop a Chinese instant messaging app since September. Then the manpower and material resources were mobilized, and finally the deeds that were launched today. The article is extremely praised for the Internet Elf, which is one of the best Chinese instant messaging software.
I think it should be Wu Lin, the general manager of Polaris, and Wangyi have reached an agreement to raise the Internet Genie software together and blacken YY.
Seeing this, everyone still doesn't understand the meaning of Wangyi, and it is clearly to support the Internet Elf. However, the three major portals of Fox and Xinlang are obviously biased towards YY.
When everyone sees this, they all feel that the whole thing is a little good-looking, and the hearts of the people who eat melons are looking forward to the development of things.
Ninety-eight is a year of rapid development of the portal, and the three major portals born from this are also one of the most famous websites in the hearts of netizens.
Now these major websites are pinched, which is really exciting.
At this moment, the Internet suddenly became lively, and many posts discussed the incident.
At the same time, in various forums, there were also a lot of messages supporting YY, and they argued with those who hacked YY.
"Is it the Internet Elf who asked for it? I also downloaded the Internet Elf and used it, and it wasn't as good as you said. I still feel that YY is a little easier to use, and almost all of my friends are using YY, even if they download the Internet Genie also say that YY is easy to use. ”
"Agree with the upstairs, YY is much better than the Internet Genie and the Web pager. YY is reserved, others have been uninstalled. ”
"Internet elves and network pagers are really shameless, and the functions are similar to YY. It's not as easy to use as YY, even if it's plagiarized, it's not like it's copied. ”
"What is plagiarism, Polaris Software is ready to develop Internet Genie in September, and there was YY at that time. ”
"Haha, I also believe this kind of thing upstairs, obviously Wangyi is helping the Internet elves. Anyway, YY is the earliest Chinese instant messaging software to come out, and it is doing quite well. Since the Internet Genie was developed so early, why didn't it go online earlier. It's more than 20 days late, who are you fooling?"
"That's right, even if the Internet Genie is only a few days late, I believe it is not plagiarized. ”
……
In the midst of the disturbing discussions, on the third day of January 98, Whoosh Fox issued a headline article written by Kuang Yufei, "Cottage, please let go of the Internet".
“
The word "cottage" is derived from Cantonese and comes from Hong Kong. "Shanzhai factories" mainly refer to small-scale factories or small family workshops, and their products are also ridiculed as "shanzhai goods". In Cantonese, the word "shanzhai" means "informal" or "unorthodox". Later, copycats mainly started through small workshops, quickly imitating famous brands, involving mobile phones, game consoles and many other fields.
The harm of "copycats" is very great, and the most important thing is to destroy everyone's research and development capabilities.
If the company invests millions and tens of millions, it takes several years, and the developed products have just been launched on the market, and they will be crowded out of the market by the swarming of counterfeit goods. In the long run, who would dare to invest in R&D and develop new products.
If you come up with a good idea, you've just started going into production and haven't started selling it yet. Other large companies have plagiarized your ideas, and with more abundant capital and technology, they have launched finished products all at once, so who will innovate and who will create.
At a time when the Internet was booming, I didn't expect some companies to be on the road of copycats. It's really shameless, so to speak.
If everyone plagiarizes and plagiarizes, how much future does the Internet have?
……”
At the same time, an article in the Xinlang forum was also quickly refined and put to the top, and the three-hour comment reply reached 2000 floors.
"On how the Internet Genie plagiarized YY", "YY, as the first Chinese instant messaging software, created a trend, and the number of registrations exceeded the 10,000 mark on the first day of launch. Many of YY's functions are also very reasonably designed and have been warmly welcomed by users.
But what we didn't expect was that some companies shamelessly plagiarized openly for the sake of profit. The software was developed in a short period of time and went live. Is this blatant behavior really a fool when many of our users are stupid?
Now, let's take a look at how the other two chat software, Internet Genie and Web Pager, which were launched on the 31st of last month, plagiarized YY.
First of all, the overall layout is needless to say, whether it is a foreign ICQ, or the current YY, Internet Elf, and network pager are generally like this. However, as the leader of instant messaging software, YY does the best in terms of layout, typography, interface beautification, and details.
In terms of functions, YY can choose to customize the avatar, and the Internet Genie can also customize the avatar and upload photos to customize the avatar. YY is because of the current Internet speed,There is no function to upload a custom avatar for photos.,The Internet elf added it self-righteously.,Don't we know that it copied YY's custom avatar function.。
There is also YY that can transfer pictures and files, and Internet Genie and Web pager can also transfer pictures and files.
YY can set the chat window font, size, color, etc., and the other two can also be used.
……
In short, I only see YY have, Internet Genie and Internet pager are almost there, but some functions are not only not comprehensive enough, but also shoddy.
Finally, let's look at the size of the three software, YY is only 188K in size, no more than 200K. However, the Internet Genie has reached six or seven hundred K, and the network pager has exceeded 1M.
In this way, the technical level of the other two is not half a star. If it wasn't for plagiarism of YY, would they have been able to launch the software so quickly?
Moreover, the number of registrations on the first day of the Internet Genie exceeded 10,000 in nine hours, which is obviously inconsistent with the facts. I surveyed the people around me, and there weren't many people who registered for the Internet Genie at all, and everyone's friends were all on YY, so I didn't have to be alone.
Finally, if you think that the Internet Genie and the Internet pager have copied the YY software, they will reply below.
I don't believe it, why have we all exceeded 400,000 registrations, and we can't reach 10,000 floors in a day!"
This article was only three hours after it was issued, and it was reprinted by many forums, attracting a large number of netizens to watch it. In just three hours, the number of hits exceeded 8,000, and the number of replies exceeded 2,000 floors.
And the support of netizens is also obvious:
"Well said, said what I had always wanted to say. ”
"The landlord has analyzed too much, and the Internet Genie and the Internet pager are plagiarism, and there is nothing else. ”
"The fox has said that the Internet elf is plagiarism. ”
"Quack quack...... Whoosh Fox supports YY, and Wangyi supports Internet Elf, this scene is really good-looking. ”
"Nonsense, Internet Genie is much easier to use than YY......"
"Upstairs is Polaris Software's Tor, right?"
"Agree to go upstairs!"
……
"Bang ......"
A few days have passed, and the number of registrations of Internet elves has not increased as quickly as expected, which makes Wu Lin angrily break the cup.
And Wang Yue on the other side did have an ugly face.
