Chapter 424： Foresee the crisis

Hearing Qiu Wenhua's words, Chen Ping chuckled and shook his head. After faintly indulging for a moment, he said softly, "Mr. Qiu, I appreciate your confidence.

However, sometimes, overconfidence is actually not a good thing. Before that, during the development of the FlashChat chat software, I asked you to develop the background monitoring program inside the FlashChat chat software.

According to my previous settings, this monitoring program can monitor in real-time, the entire flash message chat software, chat activity, and so on. Are the statistics available now? "

Qiu Wenhua nodded slightly, and then said in a deep voice: "It's already out. However, this is based on the statistics of an hour ago. Compared with the current data, there should be a huge gap."

Chen Ping also smiled slightly, and then accepted a document handed over by Qiu Wenhua. After briefly flipping through it for a while, Chen Ping's movements also stopped, and lightly tapped a page of this document. Then, it was returned to Qiu Wenhua in front of him.

With a light smile, he asked, "Have you paid attention to these data?"

Qiu Wenhua was taken aback for a moment. After taking a closer look at the data, he looked up at Chen Ping with a puzzled face and asked softly: "Mr. Chen, are there any problems with these data?"

Chen Ping smiled slightly, and then his face gradually became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Mr. Qiu, you are a very good developer.

However, for these business matters, you are not too good at it, so if you didn't notice the abnormalities in these data, I won't blame you. "

Afterwards, Chen Ping began to explain in Shen Sheng. "This data shows that before this update, the Flash chat software had a user base of three million.

Among these three million users, only a portion are online game players of Coslight Technology.

However, in just a few hours, our re-statistics showed that the number of users of FlashChat chat software reached 6 million an hour ago.

In other words, in these few hours, the number of users of the FlashChat chat software has increased by 3 million. As for the 3 million users that have grown, President Qiu must be able to know who the vast majority of them are? "

Qiu Wenhua nodded slightly, and then said in a deep voice: "The 3 million new users, most of them should be players of several online games owned by Coslight Technology."

Chen Ping chuckled and nodded, then said in a deep voice, "Yes, that's it. By comparing the two statistics before and after, you can find that the previous data shows that before this update, 300 Thousands of users, the chat software users, chat activity is only 12%.

In other words, only about 1/10 of the active users who use FlashChat chat software to chat every day. In other words, the 3 million users of FlashChat chat software, the real active users, are only less than 400,000.

However, after the increase in data, the number of users of the FlashChat chat software has reached as much as 6 million, and the user activity is as high as 65% according to statistics. what does this mean? Has Mr. Qiu thought about it carefully? "

Hearing Chen Ping's question, Qiu Wenhua was completely lost in thought. He knew that Chen Ping's inquiry was by no means aimless. It must have been that some important factors were ignored by him.

After thinking carefully for a long time, Qiu Wenhua's eyes flashed slightly, and then his face changed a little.

However, there was still some uncertainty, and Shen Sheng asked: "Mr. Chen meant that up to 65% of active users are actually new users. That is, the online game player users of Coslight Technology. ."

Chen Ping smiled and nodded, confirming Qiu Wenhua's inference. Then he said in a deep voice: "It is true. And this also means that the real main active users of FlashChat chat software are actually gamers of several online games.

Those who are not gamer users of Coslight Technology are actually not too active. "

Hearing Chen Ping's words, Qiu Wenhua also nodded heavily. He was already a little aware of Chen Ping's meaning, but at this moment Qiu Wenhua had no way to truly determine. Chen Ping talked about these intentions.

I could only ask softly: "Mr. Chen, does this have any negative impact on the future development of our Flash chat software?"

Chen Ping chuckled and nodded, and then said in a deep voice, "Of course it is influential. Such data also means that our Flash chat software is compared with Tencent's Tencent QQ based on user , There is still a huge gap.

Most of the users who really care about our chat software are users of several online game players of Coslight Technology.

Among the real civilian user groups, our Flash chat software does not actually have much influence.

In other words, even if all the online game player users of Coslight Technology Co., Ltd. start to use FlashChat chat software, the number of users of our chat software will not exceed 50 million at its peak.

It is also necessary to calculate the role of these online game players who will promote our Flash chat software from the side. "

Hearing Chen Ping's words, Qiu Wenhua's face gradually became heavy, and then he nodded gently. Qiu Wenhua did not refute Chen Ping's judgment.

Because he is very clear, Chen Ping's judgment is very precise. This is a judgment based on data, and it is not aimless.

Because the data shows that the main user group of the current Flash chat software is the users of online games.

Even the users of these online games, after using the flash chat software, fell in love with this brand-new chat software, and began to promote it to their friends and relatives.

But in fact, this kind of promotion is not extremely powerful. The number of new users brought to the Shanxin chat software is not as scary as imagined.

So just as Chen Ping said, even now the number of users of FlashChat chat software has exploded. But in fact, the peak of ultimate growth will probably not exceed 50 million.

Even if it has 50 million users, at that time, the number of users of the Flash chat software will grow, and it will fall into a bottleneck period.

Compared with the 200 million users of Tencent QQ, there is still an unparalleled gap. It is precisely because of this that Qiu Wenhua gradually calmed down, and then began to think carefully about what Chen Ping meant.

After a while, Chen Ping did not let Qiu Wenhua continue to think about it. Instead, he seemed to talk to himself and laughed softly: "People are habitual. When a person gets used to using something, he wants him to change. The effort required for such a behavior model will be several times or even dozens of times more than before.

The first choice for most domestic netizens to use chat software is Tencent QQ. On the one hand, it is because Tencent QQ is indeed a very good chat software.

On the other hand, it is also because of the nature of the chat software itself.

The chat software itself is actually a kind of social tool, and this kind of social tool, the most important thing is to communicate with your social circle in another way.

That is to say, the biggest purpose of any chat software user when using the chat software is to communicate with his social circle.

And when most people in your social circle are using the same chat software, it will be a great opportunity for people to give up this chat software and use a brand new chat software that other people around you don’t use. Difficult things.

At present, our flash messaging software is facing such a situation.

The vast majority of domestic netizens use Tencent QQ chat software. Even our FlashChat chat software is stronger than Tencent QQ in all aspects.

But for these netizens, the chat software of choice is still Tencent QQ.

Even the current users of FlashChat chat software who remain active will gradually reduce their attention to FlashChat chat software after a period of time.

The only thing I am concerned about is the chat group function. After all, the vast majority of users of our FlashChat chat software are online game players.

The chat group function makes it more convenient for players of these online games to conduct multi-person discussions and exchanges. But in addition, the chat software they use every day, I am afraid it will still be Tencent QQ.

After all, the chat software used by most people in their social circles is basically Tencent QQ.

Therefore, after a period of time, the activity data of FlashChat chat software will drop significantly, which is almost inevitable.

And most importantly, this is the best situation. In other words, we have a big killer like a chat group in our hands, which can at least maintain a certain level of user activity in Flash chat software.

But have you ever wondered what kind of situation would it be like if the function of chat groups appeared on other chat software, or even on the chat software Tencent QQ? "

Chen Ping's last words suddenly shocked the dozens of people in the conference room, especially Qiu Wenhua, the manager of the Flash Development Department, whose pupils shrank slightly, and then his face changed wildly.

Shen Sheng asked: "Mr. Chen, what do you mean..."

Chen Ping also gave a wry smile, and then took a deep look at Qiu Wenhua in front of him, and said softly, "Mr. Qiu, don't underestimate Tencent. The development force owned by Tencent is our Guangyu Technology companies are far from comparable.

We, Coslight Technology, can overcome the development barriers of chat groups within a few days, and then Tencent can overcome such barriers in a shorter time and launch the same chat group functions .

Even our FlashChat chat software has applied for patents for all kinds of brand-new functions. But in fact, in business, Tencent has countless ways to avoid so-called patent use rights.

They can also launch similar chat group functions, as well as various other functions that we are about to launch.

So, next, if Tencent launches the same chat group function on the Tencent QQ chat software, have you ever thought about what situation the Flash chat software will face at that time? "

Hearing Chen Ping's words, many people began to look at each other. But before they could respond, Chen Ping continued to speak in a deep voice: "It's not just a chat group function.

If just copying such a function, it is not a fatal blow to the FlashChat chat software.

But if Tencent copied several other vital new functions one after another, what would the final situation be like? "
