"Grab, grab, grab, grab, grab."
"Swipe, swipe, swipe swipe swipe."
"Hit the jackpot, hit the jackpot, hit the jackpot."
With hundreds of millions of fingers moving, if this scene was broadcasted, it would be more sensational than any blockbuster.
Especially as hundreds of millions of dollars continued to fall from the sky, the feeling of users constantly touching the screen with their fingers brought surprises every time.
"Hahaha, I won $10."
"Me too, I won an $8, I won a $7, I won a $8."
"Wow, I won a $50."
Messages of winning prizes continued to appear everywhere.
Of course, there was also a series of big prizes rolling on the TV.
"Congratulations to * * * * * for winning $10,000."
"Congratulations to * * * * for winning $100,000."
"Congratulations to * * * * for winning $1 million."
This kind of national and even the whole world carnival of winning the lottery brought him wave after wave of pleasure.
Even after three minutes of the money grab, people still couldn't stop their blood from boiling.
"My horizons have been broadened, my horizons have been broadened."
"Me too, I also feel like I've been broadened."
"I won $5, although it's not much, this event is worth it."
"I've never seen such a big scene in my life."
"It's a pity that I didn't win the jackpot."
"There are still too few people recommending. The guy next door recommended hundreds of people, and under his influence, recommended 30,000 people. The probability of winning the jackpot increased by 30,000 times. Guess how much he won?"
"How much?"
"$300,000."
"F * * * …"
The three minutes of the money grab ended briefly. Everyone discussed and recalled the moment of the money grab.
Although the three minutes made their fingers very tired, no matter how tired they were, they gritted their teeth and persevered.
"Don't be discouraged, there's still a chance."
"Yes, this time the money grab lasted for a total of two hours, 12 times."
"We didn't get much this time, next time we must get more."
Friends who didn't get much money secretly encouraged themselves, and some netizens who got a lot hoped to continue.
Soon, the second wave of the money grab began again.
"I'll grab, I'll grab, I'll grab, grab, grab."
"I'll use all my strength to grab it."
"Lord Buddha Maria bless me."
"Ah … f * * *, I won $100,000."
That night, countless people cried out in surprise in every corner of the world.
Of course, affected by this, some other friends who didn't participate in this robbery were also shocked by this robbery.
"F * ck, brother, what the hell are you doing?"
"Money Falling From The Sky on WeChat."
"Don't try to fool me with money falling from the sky."
"It's true. Look, I got $30."
"Damn, really? Why didn't I know about it?"
"Hurry up and register for WeChat now. There's still time."
Just imagine, when such a money-grabbing activity began, billions of fingers would constantly swipe. Even those friends who didn't participate in the event were attracted by the event.
By accident, they had also downloaded and registered WeChat along with the crowd.
At the same time …
The number of people registered on WeChat also increased when the event started.
The WeChat Money Falling From The Sky event ended at 10 pm.
It had broken through to 1.1 billion.
Of course, the 1.1 billion registration number did not really represent 11 people, nor did it mean that there were 1.1 billion smartphones.
Some of them had two accounts registered on the same phone.
Some registered WeChat accounts with traditional functions. Although they could still be used, some functions were restricted.
Huanyu Technologies estimated that there were at most 500 million users.
However, 500 million was already a terrifying number.
Even MSN's registered users had just reached 500 million. Moreover, MSN's registered users were the same as YY's registered users. There was a lot of exaggeration in this. For example, there were a lot of people who had two, three, four, or even ten MSN accounts.
Of course …
The WeChat Money Grabbing activity was far from as simple as increasing the number of WeChat registrations.
In the WeChat Money Grabbing activity, some users also got one month of Huanyu Video's VIP experience in addition to cash.
With Huanyu Video's VIP experience, there was naturally a lot of Weibo, Wechat, Toutiao, and a series of other businesses related to Huanyu Technologies. Therefore, while the WeChat Money Grabbing activity became popular, it also led to the growth of other businesses.
This was instant messaging.
Instant messaging was the most important social product on the Internet.
Not only did it have a strong user stickiness, but it was also a strong entry point for traffic.
Once you have control of this entrance, you can distribute some of this traffic to other businesses that are cooperating with it.
However, the one who benefited the most was not Huanyu Video, Wechat, Weibo, or Toutiao.
It was WeChat payments.
Electronic payments had existed as early as the traditional PC Internet. Now that smartphones had appeared, it had become mobile payments.
However, the concept of payment was generally in the e-commerce industry.
For example, Huanyu Mall and Huanyu Department Store.
They were in the e-commerce industry, so they naturally dealt with payments.
However, WeChat was inserted at this time and used a strong stance to show its payment status.
Just like now …
Although hundreds of millions of dollars in cash.
However, what were you going to do after the user got the money?
According to WeChat's settings, WeChat would save the user's winnings in their WeChat wallet.
If the money was stored in the wallet, then you could use the wallet to top up your phone bill, transfer money … etc.
If you wanted to withdraw cash …
Okay, that would work too.
Therefore, there was a more routine part. Please bind your bank account number.
Yes.
How could you withdraw cash without binding your bank account number?
This was a very normal operation.
The netizens did not think much of this. Since you wanted to withdraw cash, of course, you had to bind your bank account number.
Otherwise, how could you transfer the money to your bank account?
It was impossible to give you dozens of dollars out of thin air on your phone.
However …
When they bound their accounts, this further stabilized the position of WeChat payments.
Since you could withdraw cash from your bank account, it was obvious that you could also top up your bank account.
After you bound your account, you might not know how to unbind it. Then your bank account would always be bound to your wallet.
Maybe you won't recharge your wallet now, but who knows?
For example, when you wanted to top up your phone bill or buy something, you might accidentally top up your account.
And at this time …
Then let's talk about the second person who benefited the most — Pinduoduo.
Yes.
This was the latest e-commerce website launched by Huang Zheng overseas.
This time, it cooperated with WeChat. One was to provide a series of coupons in the money-grabbing activities.
10 USD coupons, 50 USD coupons, 100,1000 USD coupons.
When you felt that it would be a waste not to use the coupons, Pinduoduo became the best choice for users.
In fact …
Although WeChat had spent a lot of money on this wave of activities, in fact, it had made clear arrangements for users.
One was to use the activities to increase their influence and registration numbers.
Another was to promote various types of business cooperation.
Third was to open up their own payment channels.
Fourth, if you did not want to withdraw cash, then come to Pinduoduo to buy things.
Anyway …
No matter how much money you snatched, WeChat would use all means to spend your money.
Wasn't it very shameless?
Yes.
Huanyu Technologies had always been this shameless.
