Reborn multinational giant

This Spring Festival, people all over the country have a chattering topic, that is, WeChat and WeChat red envelopes. From the fifteenth lunar month to the fifteenth lunar new year, WeChat issued a total of 3 billion red envelopes to the people of the country!

The two huge activities of WeChat's successive traffic subsidies and the distribution of red envelopes by the whole people are also extremely effective.

From the beginning of the traffic subsidy activity in the middle of December to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, which is February 17, 2011, the number of new WeChat users worldwide has reached 177 million in two months.

The total number of WeChat users worldwide has also increased from more than 212 million before the event to more than 389 million now, which is only one step away from the 400 million users mark!

Among the more than 389 million users, 80 million are domestic users. In other words, the two consecutive months of traffic subsidies and red envelope subsidies have doubled the number of WeChat domestic users from more than 40 million. Reached more than 80 million!

It can be seen that Huizhong’s huge sums of money have indeed played a significant role. It has given a strong dose of medicine for the development of WeChat.

With the infusion of this wave of powerful drugs, WeChat's leading position in the global mobile social software field has been far behind hundreds of other competing software of the same type.

Overseas, even the mobile versions of myspace and facebook are unable to compete with the violent growth of WeChat. In China, only the mobile version of the huge QQ is mobile QQ, and because of the number of advantages, it can slightly overwhelm the Chinese version of WeChat.

However, whether it is Fang Zhe, Huizhong's senior officials, or colleagues in the global Internet industry, they all have reason to believe that the rise of WeChat will be unstoppable unless it is strongly interfered by the governments of major powers.

Because Huizhong has been engaged in activities with great fanfare around the world for two consecutive months. While attracting global mobile netizens to sign up for WeChat, WeChat's popularity has also become well-known worldwide.

At present, no mobile chat software in the world is more well-known than WeChat. Even myspace and facebook, two social software that have been developed overseas for many years, are far less well-known in certain countries and regions than in the world. WeChat, which operates in mainstream countries and regions, is well-known.

For example, in developing countries such as Russia, India, China and Malaysia, because mysapce and facebook are gradually popularized from the west, from developed countries to developing countries, their popularity is far less than that of WeChat as a mobile Social software is well-known in these regions.

In China, the popularity of WeChat is also unprecedentedly high. A red envelope activity that spreads to the whole people has made WeChat famous overnight in China. From then on, when people talk about chat software on mobile phones, they will never be the same as before except for QQ. Can't name the other software, but since then one more, WeChat!

"WeChat! Haven't you heard of it? It's too out, didn't you grab the red envelope during the Chinese New Year?"

The unprecedented rise of WeChat's global popularity is destined for a long time. Even if WeChat no longer engages in such a wide range of activities to benefit the people, WeChat will become the preferred software for Internet users worldwide to download and use mobile chat software.

This is just like social software such as QQ and Facebook in the previous life. They don’t need to engage in any activities. When you choose this software, you first choose it, because it has gradually become social software in your mind. Synonymous with!

Yes, a pronoun. Indeed, WeChat has gradually become synonymous with the global mobile social software field. As long as netizens think of mobile social software, the first thing they think of is WeChat. So what fear does WeChat have for other competitors?

In addition to the massive growth of WeChat users, another data worth paying attention to is the number of users who have opened WeChat payment!

WeChat launched a month-long nationwide red envelope campaign in China. While spending 3 billion RMB, it also allowed many WeChat users to open WeChat Pay.

Because whether WeChat users want to use red envelopes to send red envelopes to others, or want to withdraw the money from the red envelopes to their bank cards, they need to open WeChat payment and bind bank cards, etc. Otherwise, The money can only be left in the WeChat wallet as a bunch of useless numbers!

WeChat is another way to enable users to open WeChat payment methods and means. While admiring the Internet peers across the country, it has also achieved considerable results.

There are more than 80 million registered users in China, and more than 60 million users participated in the red envelope grabbing. Among them, half of the 37 million users have opened WeChat payment in order to send red envelopes or withdraw money to their bank cards. Of course, because One reason to open WeChat payment accounted for more than 31 million of them.

The remaining people either do not trust enough online payment methods such as WeChat Pay, or are too lazy to trouble or even don’t even know that red envelopes can withdraw cash, etc.!

Even so, more than 37 million people have opened WeChat Pay, which makes the WeChat team and the Alipay team very happy.

Especially the Alipay team, because the payment service of WeChat Pay is supported by the payment service provided by Alipay, which has long been independent from Huizhong. WeChat accounts and Alipay accounts are interoperable, that is to say, more than 37 million in a month The activation of WeChat Pay by WeChat users means that Alipay has added more than 37 million new users within one month!

After this battle, the total number of users of Alipay has reached more than 76 million. I believe it will not take long for the total number of users of Alipay to exceed the 100 million mark!

Don’t underestimate the 76 million users of Alipay. Different from WeChat as a social software, all users who register on WeChat can be counted as social users. As a third-party payment platform, Alipay is a third-party payment platform. It can be regarded as a consumer user, a wealth management user, and the average market value of each user is much higher than that of WeChat users!

With the advent of the mobile payment era and the O2O era, Fang Zhe knows that the era of PayCom's brilliance is coming!

WeChat users have increased from 250 million to nearly 400 million, and Huizhong’s valuation in the global capital market is also rising, from the previous US$52 billion to US$62.5 billion!

While Huizhong has once again set the highest valuation of unlisted startups in the world, its boss Fang Zhe has once again set the record for the richest man in China. If only half of Huizhong’s shares are counted, Fang’s value has already risen from 225 100 million U.S. dollars is equivalent to 153 billion yuan, which is raised to 31.25 billion U.S. dollars, equivalent to 212.5 billion yuan!

At the same time, Fang Zhe's wealth has also entered the top ten of the world's richest list for the first time, ranking sixth in the world after the founder of Oracle Larry Ellison with 39.5 billion US dollars!

Many industry insiders and knowledgeable netizens couldn't help but sigh, Boss Fang's money is being spent more and more!

Huizhong messed up so much money. Boss Fang sent billions of red envelopes to the people of the whole country during the Spring Festival. As a result, not only did his money not decrease at all, it was increasing, and it was still tens of billions. many.

Now, is there any reason for Nima?
