Chapter 375: Turbulence
The new version of Crooked was quickly favored by game users, because it not only has all the functions of the original Crooked, but also put a lot of effort into the crooked group and chat system, which is not much worse than QQ in terms of ease of use and user experience. With this, players can communicate more freely with their friends in the game, especially for those large game guilds, the new version of the crooked is tantamount to an artifact.
Some of the gamers of the mythical group can get the virtual items in the game because of the use of the new version of the crooked, and some do have a good impression of the new version of the crooked, anyway, a week after the new version of the crooked version was launched, from the feedback from the major download websites and 360 and Baidu Guardian's software treasure trove, the new version of the crooked in a week of downloads reached an astonishing 10 million!
Although it is unclear how many people installed the new version of Crooked and then uninstalled it, according to user feedback, this percentage is relatively low. After all, at present, according to the new version of the crooked are all gamers of the mythical group, the original crooked function is not only not reduced but more easy to use, they have no reason to uninstall this software.
And that's just the number of new downloads added in the last week, not counting the millions of previous Crooked user upgrades, so the number of users of the new version is now close to fifteen million, and it's still counting.
When the news was released, it caused a shock among the media and netizens, and there has been almost a decade of software in Huaxia that has challenged Tencent's absolute supremacy in the field of instant messaging. Now the mythical group has acquired the Huanju era with lightning speed, and it didn't take long to launch a new version of Crooked for Tencent, and this chat and voice software has increased wildly at a rate that is spreading wildfire, which is enough to threaten Tencent's roots!
A well-known economist expressed his support after learning about this situation: "Although an instant messaging software is beneficial for players from all over the country to gather together, it is beneficial for netizens to communicate with each other. However, from an economic point of view, when an industry is continuously monopolized by a company, the industry will enter a backwater. Even if a company wants to enter this industry, it will be suppressed by the monopoly company and will be powerless, which will definitely do more harm than good in the long run, so I applaud the mythical group for wanting to break Tencent's monopoly, and it is with such a company that every industry can thrive. β
The media also knew that this was definitely the most eye-catching news recently, and they immediately sent people to Shancheng to interview the senior management of Mythical Group, and also invited well-known experts and scholars to interpret the deep meaning behind Mythical Group's entry into the field of instant messaging, which Tencent regards as its own backyard.
Netizens are divided into three factions, some of whom strongly support the Mythical Group, and they believe that it is precisely because of Tencent's monopoly on instant messaging software that Tencent has unscrupulously squeezed the pockets of netizens. Others said that it is enough to have a Tencent in Huaxia's instant messaging field, and the Mythical Group is full. In the future, some of my friends are on QQ, and some are crooked, how inconvenient is this?
There are also some netizens who are neutrals, some of them are not concerned about these, and some are waiting to see what happens.
It's been a week since the new version was launched, and everyone's sticks are focused on Tencent, wondering what measures they can take to deal with it. The new version of Crooked is not a foreign product like the new LangUC and MSN, Crooked already has millions of loyal users, plus the player base of the Mythical Group, so the development speed of the new version of Crooked is very fast.
The media exclaimed that if Tencent was not careful, it could become the next Yahoo. Before Google, Yahoo was the oldest search service provider in the world, but because of their strategic mistakes, they stubbornly supported Google to become the hegemon of the world's search engines, but they became a second-rate search engine.
But what is strange is that in the week since the new version was launched, Tencent has not had any official response, and even the top management has only expressed confidence in Tencent and contempt for Mythical Group.
Seeing the increasing number of users of the new version of Crooked like a snowball, Tencent couldn't help but feel the pressure, and they responded a week after the launch of the new version of Crooked. Ma Huateng said in response to an interview with a reporter: "Mythical Group is a respectable company, their strength and potential in the game field are the world's first-class, but they made a wrong decision this time, and they will pay the due price for this wrong investment." β
The news media that got Ma Huateng's official response was too excited, what they wanted was this kind of effect, how could they attract people's attention without gimmicks? Obviously, this time the dialogue between Mythical Group and Tencent is very interesting, one is the overlord in the field of instant messaging in Huaxia, and it has a very outstanding performance in all aspects of the Internet. The other is the leader of China's emerging game field, whose assets have increased from 10 million to 10 billion US dollars in less than three years.
Ma Huateng responded in less than half a day, and the PC version and mobile phone version of QQ began to be updated simultaneously, not only optimizing the software, but also engaging in activities to distribute things like Q coins and mobile phones.
This kind of activity is a favorite of netizens, not only can you get Q coins and physical gifts for free, but if you draw a gift like an Apple phone, it is enough to make them happy, although the odds are as small as buying a lottery ticket and winning the jackpot.
The new version of the crooked also began to upgrade at this time,In addition to optimizing the software,It also carried out similar activities to attract popularity,Not only to send Y coins and various physical gifts,But also to send precious props for its various games,It can be said that it has made a lot of moneyγ
The confrontation between Mythical Group and Tencent is still the happiest among those netizens, and this is the moment when they benefit the most, and they have no reason to be unhappy. After all, for most people, whether it is the Mythical Group or Tencent, they are too far away from their lives, and no matter how much they turn the world upside down, they can only watch the excitement from the sidelines.
The year 2016 was really turbulent, with the powerful dark horse of Myth Group, whether in the field of games or other areas of the Internet, changes have begun.
I don't know how many companies will be swallowed up, and how many more companies will be able to take the opportunity to become the overlord in this field.
