You Were Told to Design Software, But You Created Tiktok?!

198: Section 198These people were also very happy because they received free vegetables.

”I just registered for WeChat and directly scanned for over fifty yuan, which means I can get ten large cabbages.”

”I was just passing by to take a look; I had already scanned before, but this time I still scanned for a few yuan and got some green onions.”

”This driver has been to several nearby towns in the past two days. As soon as he arrived here today, I came down. I had all five people in my family download WeChat and scan the QR code, and we directly used a small tricycle to pull away half a cart of stuff.”

Besides many middle-aged and elderly people, some young people passing by also received items for free.

After all, why not take something that’s given away for free?

And at the end of the video.

It concluded with a smiling aunt carrying three bags of vegetables.

Watching the video’s content.

Countless netizens were instantly stirred.

The comments under this hot search almost exceeded a million within half an hour!

”Oh my god, what a genius! Who thought of this method? WeChat must be losing a fortune.”

”I have vegetables at home, who has a merchant code! Contact me quickly, I’m from Xiaolin Town, Dalin City!”

”Upstairs, I’m not far from you, I’ll message you privately. No one has done this in my parents’ hometown town yet!”

”I was wondering why someone downstairs was using a loudspeaker to give away cabbage the other day, and a crowd gathered. So this is how you make money.”

”First, new users scan their Red Envelope code, then the scanned amount is paid to their merchant collection code. This way, they make a huge profit by just giving away some vegetables.”

”To be honest, I discovered the business opportunity as soon as this WeChat activity came out. We’ve made seventy to eighty thousand in various places these past few days.”

”I feel that if WeChat doesn’t modify the rebate limit, once this hot search appears, the same scene will likely appear in all second and third-tier cities and various towns and rural areas of Yan Country in the coming days!”

Originally, before this hot search appeared.

Only a few people knew that this activity could make money, and not many people were making money through this method.

But once this hot search came out.

It directly exploded across the entire network.

That afternoon.

Many people began to go to the countryside using the same method.

··········Please give flowers

Either they were pulling several trucks of vegetables, or other items; in any case, they were all items that weren’t very expensive but were very attractive if given away for free.

For a time.

Almost throughout the second and third-tier towns and various rural areas of Yan Country, one could often see a large truck going around giving away things and asking people to scan QR codes.

Because too many people wanted a piece of the pie.

So, not long after, this situation often occurred.

People often drove a large truck to a certain town only to find that someone had already been there. The second time they came to this place, the profit they could get was less than one-tenth of what the first group of people got.

So very quickly.

Some people learned their lesson.

..... ..... 0

He first sent many people to different towns and villages to ask if anyone else had been there before. Once they received a ’no’ answer, they would immediately drive to such places.

This overwhelming campaign of going to the countryside to scan QR codes and give gifts swept across the entire Lower-Tier Market of Yan Country in just a few short days.

Because only the Lower-Tier Market had a large user base that had not registered for WeChat and Weixin Wallet.

Some people also tried it in some vegetable markets in big cities, but many of the people who scanned were already registered WeChat users, so the amount they could scan was not high.

So for a time.

A seemingly contradictory situation appeared in Yan Country.

In major second and third-tier towns and Lower-Tier Markets, one could often see large trucks giving away gifts for scanning QR codes, but in first-tier cities, many people had not even heard of such a situation.

This spontaneous activity of going to the countryside to give gifts, initiated by some merchants, also brought a huge increase in WeChat users in a short period.

In the few days after this hot search appeared.

The daily growth in WeChat’s user count averaged over tens of millions.

The most crucial thing is.

This WeChat QR code scanning activity, which swept across the entire Lower-Tier Market of Yan Country, not only increased WeChat’s chat user base but also increased Weixin Wallet’s payment user base.

This activity, which could massively increase both types of users, caused WeChat’s user count to explode continuously.

And under these circumstances.

Penguin Group and Ali Group, who were previously quite confident, finally couldn’t sit still.

Chapter 133: Penguin Group and Ali Group’s Emergency Meeting, WeChat’s Development!

That afternoon, when the hot search appeared.

Top floor of the Penguin Group Building, inside the Chairman’s Office.

Pony Ma and a group of QQ executives were currently holding an emergency meeting here.

On a large screen in the distance.

The figures of Jack Ma and several Ali Group executives had just appeared.

Originally, before this.

Jack Ma had scoffed at some of WeChat’s actions, not believing that Weixin Wallet could threaten Blue Wallet.

In his opinion.

As long as their Blue Wallet also launched QR code Red Envelopes, Weixin Wallet would have no way to compete with them afterward.

However.

As soon as he saw the hot search trending on Weibo.

Almost instantly, Jack Ma perceived the terrifying potential of this hot search.

His business acumen told him that the increase in user numbers that this hot search could bring to Weixin Wallet was extremely terrifying, enough to develop Weixin Wallet to a point where it could threaten Blue Wallet.

The most crucial thing is.

The effect brought by this hot search was something that Blue Wallet had not possessed before.

Most of Blue Wallet’s users were still people from first and second-tier ”580” cities.

The number of Blue Wallet users in the Lower-Tier Market and second and third-tier towns was actually not high.

After all, except in first and second-tier cities, many older users in towns and rural areas were still accustomed to paying with cash.

And WeChat’s crazy breakthrough this time attracted mostly this type of new user!

Under such circumstances.

Weixin Wallet was very likely to gain a foothold in a corner that Blue Wallet had not noticed.

And such a situation was something he was absolutely unwilling to see.

Therefore.

He immediately contacted Penguin Group, and both sides held an emergency video conference.

Besides Jack Ma.

Pony Ma was equally shocked after seeing this hot search, no less than Jack Ma.

He had not expected before that WeChat’s QR code Red Envelopes could have such a way of playing.

They only saw the first layer of WeChat’s QR code Red Envelopes attracting users, but they never expected that the second layer would actually be a spontaneous promotion by users going to the countryside.

After all, for such activities.

Generally speaking.

To prevent people from ’milking’ the company for Red Envelope wool, a rebate limit would be set.

Previously, if Ali Group and Penguin Group also had similar activities, they would basically add certain restrictions, not allowing users to make a large amount of money through this point.

But he didn’t expect that Wang Mo had directly removed this restriction, precisely to let some people help him promote WeChat.

After watching the hot search video content.

Pony Ma almost instantly guessed.

This video, from the very beginning, was definitely a hot search bought by Junzi Group, precisely to let more people know!

And once this hot search came out.

In the coming period, WeChat’s user count would definitely skyrocket.

This was also something Pony Ma did not wish to see.
