The core of Alibaba is e-commerce + payment, which is well-known.

Let’s not talk about e-commerce. Although there are competitors, Alibaba’s e-commerce leader is extremely steadily. No e-commerce company can surpass Alibaba within ten years.

Originally, the same is true in the payment field. Alipay is also the dominant player. As Teacher Ma said, he could not find a rival even with a telescope.

But since WeChat emerged, especially the launch of WeChat Pay at a lightning speed, and then joined hands with the Spring Festival Gala to tie Alipay's seven or eight years of efforts.

Since then, Teacher Ma has regarded WeChat as the enemy of Alipay.

Although Alibaba's old rival Tencent also entered the market and created a Q letter similar to WeChat, which also entered the payment field, to be honest, Teacher Ma was more afraid of WeChat than Q letter.

After all, originality is originality, and following the trend is following the trend, especially the original WeChat, which is constantly innovating, from the WeChat red envelope that became famous in one fell swoop, to the change to finance management, then WeChat gathers five blessings, taxi-hailing software money-burning war, bicycle sharing war, etc.

WeChat has been causing war and has started one battle after another.

What makes Teacher Ma most uncomfortable is that the share of mobile payments has always been overwhelming with Alipay. WeChat Pay accounts for about 46% of the market share, while Alipay accounts for about 38% of the market share.

Although there is only less than 10% gap between the two, it is true that it has been suppressed by WeChat Pay.

You should know that Teacher Ma is the pioneer of third-party payment in China. She has been deeply engaged in this field for seven or eight years, but it has been rubbed by WeChat, a latecomer, on the ground for less than two years.

So, Teacher Ma really hated WeChat.

Now that we have received the news of the merger of WeChat and Qxin, Teacher Ma is really afraid of it to the extreme.

Although Teacher Ma does not take Qxin Pay seriously, because Qxin Pay only accounts for about 12% of the market share, which is very big gap with Alipay and WeChat Pay.

However, once Qxin merges with WeChat, the payment share of the two will rise directly to about 58%. Compared with Alipay's 38%, the advantage is really too great.

This is just the merged data. The merger of WeChat and Qxin is not just a surge in data. The merger of resources between the two parties will make the combat power stronger.

For example, the taxi-hailing software war was originally a battle for hegemony after Qiandu withdrawn from the competition.

However, after the merger of WeChat and Qxin, although Didi Taxi and Dahuang Feng Taxi are still fighting each other, the relationship between the two parties has also changed greatly due to the changes in the relationship between the financial owners behind them. Even if these two taxi software are not merged together, they will definitely form a strategic alliance to work with the fast taxi supported by Alipay.

The same is true for similar competitions. In the past, they were all three parties competing for hegemony, but now they are facing a two-match and one-match.

It is no exaggeration to say that the merger of WeChat and Qxin has brought earth-shaking changes to the current mobile Internet era. As a competitor, Teacher Ma is really Alexander!

So, the worried Teacher Ma secretly held a high-level meeting to discuss the huge impact of the merger of WeChat and Q letter on Alipay, how Alipay should deal with the next situation, etc.

...

I have personal interests and hobbies. Just like Teacher Ma in my previous life, after becoming successful, I started to spend money to make movies and hold concerts, and I had such a great time!

Although Liu Xiahui in his previous life was obsessed with novels, in addition to enjoying the joy of reading novels carefreely during his study, he has been working hard for a living for more than ten years after leaving society. Especially after he started writing novels by himself, he didn’t have much time to read novels.

For the legendary series "The Legend of China" that introduced himself into the novel world, as well as the legendary series such as "The Legend of Martial Arts", "The Legend of Jianghu", "The Legend of the Wizards", "The Legend of the Wizards", "The Legend of the Wizards", "The Legend of the Wizards", "The Legend of the Wizards", and "The Legend of the Wizards", "The Legend of the Wizards", "The Legend of the Wizards", and "The Legend of the Wizards", "The Legend of the Wizards", "The Legend of the Wizards", and "The Legend of the Wizards", which was once crazy about being crazy about the legendary series, Liu Xiahui's dreams in his previous life were to bring these classic works to the screen.

I believe this is also one of the dreams of every legendary book fan.

Unfortunately, although in the Guangdong Province region in the 1990s, Wu Lao and Jin Lao were almost equal, and were even known as the "Jin Yong of the Mainland", forming the jaw-dropping "Wu Ji phenomenon", none of Wu Lao's works could be brought to the screen, which made legendary book fans feel very regretful.

Originally, in 2016, "The Legend of Wu Lin" ushered in the dawn of hope, and Mr. Wu officially authorized Film Street to adapt it into a martial arts online drama.

Unfortunately, due to lack of funds, the martial arts online drama "The Legend of the Martial Arts" was stranded indefinitely. I don't know that it will be the year of the Monkey and Horse Month to have the chance to see it on the screen.

Now, Liu Xiahui has almost realized his dream of being able to be realized with money.

So, Liu Xiahui planned to spend money to realize this dream that had been hidden in his heart for more than 30 years, and was preparing to move the Legend series to the screen, giving the book fans who were crazy about the Legend series a memory, and it would be worth his rebirth.

Do it if you want. At the forefront of the merger of WeChat and Q letter, Liu Xiahui went directly to Guangdong Province to visit his idol Wu Lao in his previous life.

At this time, Mr. Wu was already ten years old, but the old man was still energetic and had clear conversations. He was worthy of being a legendary figure who started writing novels only at the age of fifty or sixty.

Liu Xiahui really admires this old man. Although his legendary series was accused of being the same and plagiarized and borrowed from Mr. Jin's works, it is naturally unique to the fact that the "Wu Ji phenomenon" was formed in the 1900s.

After all, readers' eyes are bright. If they are not well written, they will not be so popular with so many readers.

You should know that those pirated booksellers at that time could definitely sell their books as long as they named the XX legend and then printed the author Wu Ji. Old Wu in that era was almost a god.

After knowing Liu Xiahui's purpose, Mr. Wu was also very happy. Any novelist hoped that his works could be brought to the screen, even Mr. Wu, who was in his 80s, was no exception.

Especially after knowing that Liu Xiahui was the big boss of the Liu Group and his real book fan, Mr. Wu didn't accept any money, so he happily gave Liu Xiahui all the film and television copyrights of all his works under his name for free.

Liu Xiahui was really moved by this and secretly decided in his heart that he must bring all his main works to the screen in the lifetime of Mr. Wu, so that the old man can smile in a hundred years.

Calculated based on the death time of the old man in his previous life, the remaining time has been less than five years.

In less than five years, it is still very difficult to bring seven or eight major works to the screen, and ordinary film and television companies can't even think about it.

However, as long as you have money, these are not problems!

After signing the contract, Liu Xiahui and the old man had a meal together and took a photo together.

Then, he hurriedly returned to Guizhou Province.

The first step for Liu Xiahui to return to Guizhou Province was to establish Liu Family Media.

In addition to filming legendary series to realize his dreams, the classic online novels he wrote in this life also need to be made into TV series one by one, so it is definitely inconvenient to not have a specialized film and television company.

The second step is to publicly recruit producers, producer directors, producers, planners, screenwriters, art directors, producers, coordination, venue services, photography teams, cameramen, lighting artists, costumers, costumers, props, recording teams, scene recording teams, recording teams, lyrics, compositions, singing, theater services, etc.

The first step is the easiest thing to do, just establishing a media company, it is very simple, and it is just a matter of one sentence.

The second step is that if the requirements are not high, you can recruit all the people in minutes. However, if there are strict recruitment requirements, it is not that easy to recruit satisfactory candidates in a short period of time.

Throughout December, Liu Xiahui was busy with this matter.

It was not until January 2014 that most of the talents needed by Liushi Media were recruited, and only the most important director was left.

Liu Xiahui picked and selected from many well-known directors and finally selected two directors who met the requirements. One was Director Li Da, who served Xiangjiang Wireless for more than 40 years and had about 60 works.

One is Director Lai Da, who has many classic works.

Let’s talk about director Li Da first. He is the designated producer of Jin Yong’s drama (because the system in Xiangjiang is different from that in the mainland, the producer there is equivalent to the director, so he is called a director). The classic martial arts dramas he directed include the 1995-year-old principal version of "The Return of the Condor Heroes", the 1996-year-old president version of "The Swordsman" by the Swordsman version of "The Swordsman" by Huang Yuehua in 1997, and the most classic version of "The Deer and the Cauldron" by the Young and Dangerous Xiaochun brother in 1998.

All of these versions are classics among classics and are insurmountable.

Although director Lai Da’s classic works are not as many as director Li Da, it is enough that he owns the 2003 version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Originally, the 1993 version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was also his work, but this version allowed Xu Daguanren in "The Legend of the White Snake" to play the beautiful Zhao Min, which almost made people scold him (I don't know whether others scold him or not, but the author has been scolding him a lot anyway. Although the author was still young at that time, his aesthetic view was still OK. I feel that Zhou Zhiruo in the 1993 version is more than ten times more beautiful than Zhao Min).

Ten years later, Director Lai Da, who learned his lesson, remakes "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" again.

The casting in this version is really awesome, with a handsome man and beautiful woman. The role of Zhao Min also makes the beautiful beauty Jia play the role of Zhou Zhiruo, the tall beauty, and the role of Zhou Zhiruo is also talked about by people.

In short, this version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" caused a huge sensation, comparable to the highest-rated TV series such as "Meteor Garden" and "My Fair Princess", which is awesome!

If these two great directors can be invited to film the Legendary series, the effect will definitely be great.

So Liu Xiahui began to contact the two great directors through relationships, and then went to invite them in person.

In fact, both Director Li and Director Lai have already achieved success at this time. If other film and television companies had invited them, they would have been too lazy to pay attention to it.

But Liu Xiahui, the richest man in China, took action personally, gave him enough respect and treatment, and even asked his boss to persuade him, but they had no choice but to refuse.

Therefore, before the Spring Festival arrived, the two great directors handled their work one after another and went to Liu Media Company in Guizhou Province to report.

At this time, WeChat and Qxin finally completed the data merger. Apart from overlapping users, the total registered users (including overseas) also exceeded one billion mark, becoming the well-deserved overlord in the mobile social field.

The development trajectory of WeChat in the previous life has only been more than 600 million registered users at this point in time.

The reason why there is a user gap of nearly 300 million is that WeChat was launched in this life earlier than its previous life. The most important thing is that WeChat in the previous life has no rivals, so it can develop slowly.

In this life, WeChat has the opponent Qxin. The two sides have grown and strengthened in the competition and then merged together, which is why they have achieved results far beyond their previous lives.

When Tencent released this data, although Tencent only accounts for 30% of WeChat's shares, its stock price still rose in response, making Tencent investors laugh so much that their eyes almost squinted.

In other words, the Liu Group does not mean to go public, otherwise it would be a lot of money just by relying on this wave.

After the merger of WeChat and Qxin, the two parties promoted the merger of Didi and Huang Feng.

Although Didi and Huang Feng were a little reluctant, the financial owners behind them had merged. With the cruel competition of taxi-hailing software, once there is no financial owner investment, it will collapse within a month.

Therefore, whether you want to or not, the merger of the two has become a foregone conclusion.

...

During this year's Spring Festival, WeChat continued to launch the Five Blessings event. The gameplay was similar to last year, but it was just a little adjustment. For example, I had to invite new users to register to get the opportunity to get the Friendly Fu. I don't need to invite this year. The conditions for getting the Friendly Fu are the same as those of the Jingye Fu. I have to use WeChat payment offline to get the chance to get it.

For example, if you use Didi taxi, shared bicycles, etc., as long as you can pay with WeChat, you can do it.

This year's super stage of the Spring Festival Gala was won by Alipay.

Similarly, learning from WeChat and Qxin, Support Bao also launched New Year red envelopes.

Last year, the New Year red envelopes launched by Qxin followed the trend of WeChat were still very effective. In a few hours, tens of millions of registered users have soared.

Now Alipay is really Alexander in the merged WeChat, and can only hope for the big stage of the Spring Festival Gala to see if it can also increase tens of millions of registered users.

Even if you only increase the registered user by 30 or 20 million, the money you spend is worth it.

Therefore, as the Spring Festival approaches, hundreds of millions of WeChat users are working hard to collect the five blessings. Driven by WeChat Pay, the turnover of Laoliu Catering, Haidilao and Zhou Heiya began to rise sharply, and the turnover of other merchants that WeChat Pay can cover has increased to varying degrees.

The WeChat-based year-end carnival kicked off again!
Chapter completed!
