Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 405 [WeChat is the eternal hot spot in the future mobile Internet circle]

The lights at the conference site dimmed, and everyone unanimously stopped communicating and looked towards the stage.

Luo Sheng stepped onto the stage calmly and calmly. The quiet atmosphere of the scene was immediately broken by the fans who came here. The scene instantly became enthusiastic. Among them, 30% of the fans who came here participated in the ieP tablet some time ago. Conference.

After the applause came to an end, Luo Sheng omitted even the opening remarks this time, and said calmly: "Old rules, first blow the performance, but today it is the Bluestar Technology Group."

The scene suddenly burst into laughter, and many people smiled knowingly. If you have participated in the press conference hosted by Luo Sheng for many times, you will already be surprised. The opening show of performance has become the archbishop's "traditional performance".

Luo Sheng said to the audience in an orderly manner: "We have released the first quarterly report of Bluestar Technology for some time. The first quarterly reported global revenue of 35.32 billion U.S. dollars, or about 240.88 billion yuan, which is still growing at a rate of more than 30%. Rising. As of two days ago, Bluestar Technology's total market value was 359.8 billion U.S. dollars and became the highest market value of all listed companies in the world. Now we want to say bluntly that we are the world's number one listed company!"

"Oh~~"

The applause and cheers continued at the scene. The most joyously shouting this time was the large and small shareholders of Bluestar Technology who came to the scene, all with their expressions saying "Long Yan Joy".

Since May, the global petroleum finance group has become more exhausted, and many authoritative analysis institutions have looked down on the market. For example, the market value of ExxonMobil has fallen below the 300 billion market value mark. By then, there is only one company in the world. The market value of is located in the $300 billion range, and that is Bluestar Technology.

Shareholders are making a lot of money, and it makes no sense to be unhappy.

On the stage, Luo Sheng continued to say with a smile: "We are very honored to represent the global IT technology stocks leading the global stock market's top 1 achievements. The last time it was Microsoft. Then compared to Microsoft's quarterly report this year, I have a copy of Microsoft's Q1 Basic financial data situation."

After speaking, everyone looked at the big screen behind Luo Sheng.

"According to the Q1 financial report disclosed by Microsoft, its first-quarter operating income was US$16.19 billion, net profit was US$5.41 billion, net assets per share were US$5.48, cash flow per share was US$0.96, and basic earnings per share were US$0.63. The share yield was $0.62."

Luo Sheng looked back at the big screen and continued: “Let’s look at the two most important data, revenue and net profit. Our Bluestar Technology’s first-quarter revenue was 35.32 billion U.S. dollars and net profit was 11.65 billion U.S. dollars, both of them. Times, and as of the day before, Microsoft’s market value was at $221.5 billion in after-hours trading."

"Oh~~——!"

The BTC shareholders on the scene once again cheered and applauded. The market value of Bluestar Technology Group has increased by more than 700% in less than four years since the IPO. This is very scary data.

And the first person who held BTC stock, if he had never sold it, would have made a crazy profit now.

Luo Sheng only holds the shares of Bluestar Technology, and his current nominal value has reached 93.3 billion U.S. dollars. If you add 9% of the family fund's holdings, it is 32.38 billion U.S. dollars.

"OK, next we introduce the product we are going to launch today, a social instant messaging app that focuses on the mobile Internet era-WeChat!" Luo Sheng pressed the small remote control in his hand again, and the audience all saw the big picture Application icons on the screen.

Bluestar Technology Group, as today's global Internet social hegemon, once again launched a social product, and Luo Sheng personally appeared on the stage to host, so many people in the industry realized that this product must be extraordinary.

"The eternal hot spot in the mobile Internet circle in the future is not the blue space app based on image sharing, but WeChat." Luo Sheng said ambitiously, his voice spread throughout the audience, many people looked sideways and even felt that he was there. The illusion of stating a fact.

Is this the aura of a generation of social overlords...

The Blue Space app, like Luo Sheng’s previous Instagram, the domestic version and the international version of the Blue Space app, are the same. It is an APP social application running on the mobile terminal. Users will share the pictures captured with each other at any time. .

The blue space on the mobile side has the fastest and most eye-catching growth in advertising revenue. Although it does not exceed the PC side in absolute terms, the growth rate is too amazing. With the popularization of the mobile Internet and the popularity of smart phones, it will inevitably surpass the PC side to become Bluestar Technology One of the most important growth points in the group's huge social map.

"What can WeChat do?"

Luo Sheng paced back and forth on the stage of the press conference.

"We are in the unofficial development stage from version 1.0 to version 2.0. These two versions of WeChat are unremarkable. WeChat version 1.0 can send text and pictures, and can replace SMS and MMS of mobile operators for free. Frankly speaking , The development team thinks that it can be launched, but I am very dissatisfied, what should I do? Continue development.

At this moment, big guys such as QQ, Xiaomi, Ali and others who are interested in spying on the hinterland of Luo Sheng’s social kingdom did not come to the scene, but without exception, they watched the press conference silently in a conference room of their respective companies. .

"This..." Zhang Xiaolong was stunned and did not know what to say, because the "WeChat" currently developed by the Tengxun team is mainly capable of sending text and pictures, and according to the plan, it will be launched as soon as this stage is completed.

However, when I heard Luo Sheng's remarks at the press conference, the "WeChat" team did not know what to say. It was obvious that in Bluestar's WeChat, it was just a basic application.

This is competitiveness.

At the same time, Luo Sheng on the stage of the press conference said: "If this is the case, even compared with the mobile version of QQ, WeChat is not competitive, so we developed the voice function."

When Luo Sheng said this, Rebs’ Michat team and Zhang Xiaolong’s Wechat team all made a decision without exception: to quickly follow up and develop the voice function.

But they are also bitter. As a result, the launch time of the product will be delayed. The big guys are very clear that the social field is first-come-take-all. Once they dominate the market, it will be difficult to overwhelm their opponents unless there is a brand new one. Outstanding opportunities.

For example, with the advent of mobile instant messaging this time, Tengxun QQ has already felt the crisis.

"We launched the official version of WeChat 1.0. Its biggest highlight is the three chains." While talking, Luo Sheng on the stage looked back at the big screen and pressed the small remote control once. Three big headlines appeared on it, and Luo Sheng read them one by one. Dao: "Acquaintance relationship chain, stranger relationship chain and offline relationship chain."

After speaking, Luo Sheng paused for a while and then introduced in depth: "The first acquaintance relationship chain, first of all, through the function of matching the address book, the WeChat authorized by the user can add all these friends in the user's mobile phone through QQ offline News, WeChat can also bring in QQ users."

At the same time, Xiao Ma, who was watching the press conference, subconsciously said: "I think too much, it's impossible, save it."

On the other side, Luo Sheng on the stage suddenly smiled and said: "Of course, we will communicate with Tencent on QQ, and hope that Xiao Ma can authorize the link for us."

The industry insiders at the scene laughed, and everyone who understands understands that Tencent will definitely refuse as long as its brain is not watts. If it agrees, wouldn't it just stretch its neck and cut it?

After the episode, Luo Sheng went on to say: "WeChat allows you to log in directly with the blue space account. Of course, this feature does not give WeChat too many substantial product advantages, but once WeChat’s functions are comprehensive, this account The advantage is huge."

Luo Sheng walked to the side of the stage and drank slobber, then replied to the midfielder and said: "The second stranger relationship chain, WeChat has a drift bottle, shake function, these are functions for strangers to socialize, WeChat gives Users provide a way to make friends with nearby, distant, and destined strangers."

At the same time, Rebs, who watched the press conference, suddenly commented sharply: “WeChat’s stranger relationship chain is likely to cause it to become an app of “about x artifact”.”

A member of the Michao team said: “It’s impossible for the Bluestar WeChat team to think of this. Maybe they just want to use this to harvest users in the early stage, and then remove these functions when the new version is about to get over the dark. Historical phases."

Everyone nodded silently.

These years, companies can achieve such a large scale, without a black history, I am embarrassed to say that they are large companies.

On the other side, Luo Sheng at the press conference said: “We have introduced a new concept—flexible social networking. A social as a service based on geographic location. When users reach a location, they can interact with people near that location. to chat with."

"The third one is the offline relationship chain. The official version 1.0 of WeChat has made a QR code business card sharing. With a QR code business card, it is easy for each of us to meet offline to add friends. From acquaintances, Then to strangers, the offline relationship chain is scanned and imported into WeChat. Nowadays, when we meet new friends in social situations, we exchange business cards with each other, but in the future I believe it will no longer be business card exchanges, but to say ' Add a WeChat, then open it and scan it, say, "I will scan you", and then wait for him to open the QR code."

Many industry leaders suddenly thought through it at this time, and Zhuge Liang's skills were full afterwards.

WeChat is a chat tool, isn't what every user can do on it is chat with others?

However, when a user installs WeChat for the first time and imports friends from the mobile phone address book, he only has a few friends at the beginning, maybe dozens of them, but this is impossible to chat, and the social activity cannot be improved. The product must fail.

Then only by constantly creating some topics and scenes for them to talk about, and maintaining the heat can they stay, so the WeChat team of Bluestar Technology will launch application scenarios such as nearby people, drifting bottles, and shaking. .

An industry insider in the audience said convincingly: "It's terrifying to be the contemporary global social hegemon. There is no limit to creativity."

What shocked people in the industry most is that Bluestar Technology is already the world’s largest super giant in market value, but the company’s innovation capabilities do not seem to be exhausted, even if it becomes the world’s number one. It is still in a period of rapid rise.

To know that the "Family Bucket" series integrated with social products under the Bluestar Technology Group does not know how many people are jealous and jealous. The latest social product WhatAPP has been popular all over the world.

The launch of WeChat this time gives people the feeling that it is the rhythm of a popular product. People have to recall the deconstruction and prediction of web1.0 to web4.0 that Luo Sheng explained at the IT Leadership Summit.

At that time, the web 2.0 era, between web 3.0, fully emphasized the importance of geographic location in the future.

Today, his original prediction is becoming a reality, and geographic location information can trigger new application scenarios and provide a new window for the social field.

People have to be convinced. Being hailed as the "Son of the Internet" is worthy of the name. I am afraid that in the world, Luo Sheng is the person who knows the Internet best and no one will refute it.

Because of this, people are not surprised.
