Chapter 739: [Zhang Bowen: Boss, you cheated me! 】


The fact that the two big men surnamed Zhang exchanged their friends in the circle of friends was secretly observed by other big men who gave screenshots and drew a lot of attention in the industry for a while, and they all turned into strong crowds watching melons.
As a besieged hunter, Tik-Tok under ByteDance's continuous blows in this midsummer has had a very difficult life, but in the end it has survived, and now it seems to be a painful experience.
After experiencing the "dark moment" in the second quarter, Tik-Tok now ranks first in the AOS app store's global download list in the third quarter, with a specific download volume of 68.5 million, surpassing BlueSpace's BlueSpace , BV Video Network, WhatAPP, etc. became the most downloaded Azure applications in the world.
In the third quarter of this year, Blue Space had about 30 million downloads, ranking sixth on the list. BV Video Network, WhatAPP, and Messenger have downloaded 45.5 million, 33.8 million, and 31.3 million downloads respectively, ranking 2nd to 5th.
Tik-Tok has become the most downloaded application in the world, and its installed capacity has beaten its competitors, including the emergence of North America’s "burning after reading" software Snapchat, as well as the super social giant Bluestar Technology Inc. BV Video Network, MicroBlog, BlueSpace, etc.
In 2017 last year, Tik-Tok's monthly downloads were less than 10 million. The downloads of several core social applications under Bluestar Technology were all higher than Tik-Tok, but in the second half of this year, it began to climb rapidly. Last month In September, the number of downloads reached 23.5 million times, which is only the number of downloads from the AOS app store.
As of 2018, Tik-Tok's global downloads have reached 330 million. With the addition of 240 million users of Tik-Tok's predecessor "y" software, the cumulative downloads have now reached 750 million, and the current global monthly active users The number has reached 400 million.
These dazzling data Tik-Tok only took less than two years, while BV video network used three years, Messenger used four years, WhatAPP used four years, and blue space used five and a half years.
The popularity did not know why, but it was out of control from it, sweeping the world, and the amount of time users are willing to stay on Tik-Tok is also quite amazing. This social product is becoming more and more popular among local young people in North America.
In North America, local users have to open Tik-Tok about 8 times a day, an average of 5 minutes each time, corresponding to BlueSpace and WhatAPP under the Bluestar Technology Group, which are 4.9 minutes and 3.7 minutes respectively.

The headquarters of the Côte d'Azur, the Galaxy City.
Early this morning, Zhang Bowen came to the French Riviera.
"Come in... yo, Lao Zhang? Haha, what brought you to my site?" Yao Jianhong's office saw that the person entering was Zhang Bowen, the actual head of Bluestar Technology, couldn't help but laugh.
Zhang Bowen came in and sat down on the sofa in the lounge area, he was not polite at all, and immediately vomited: "Ah...Don't say it, Douyin is not dead, I have trouble sleeping and eating. Recently, Zhang Yiming gave me food. I don't know the smell, I can't sleep at night."
Hearing this, Yao Jianhong came out from his desk, sat down opposite Lao Zhang, and joked with her legs folded: "How? It's not easy to be smashed by someone, right? Now you can understand It's the taste of those old giants who were topped by Bluestar Technology ten years ago."
Zhang Bowen smiled bitterly and shook his head, and sighed, "I was careless. I couldn't shake the pot that made Zhang Yiming rise up. I still couldn't shake the pot, or President Luo's insight was terrible. I remember that in 2013, In a small chat with Mr. Luo, he mentioned Zhang Yiming and his headline product value attention, and tried to buy it as much as possible. By 2016, it will not be a big threat. I didn’t expect it to be just a blink of an eye for a year or two. Coincidentally, in the past two years, I have been involved in North America again, ignoring Zhang Yiming’s expansion..."
Now that these are all post-mortems, Tik-Tok's current momentum, by the end of the year, the global download volume is rushing to 1 billion.
In fact, Bluestar Technology did send people to find Zhang Yiming to initiate M&A invitations many times, but they were rejected by the other party without exception. They had no choice but to give up. They made it clear that they didn't want to work with you, not only didn't want to, but also wanted to replace it.
However, although Zhang Bowen at the time admired Zhang Yiming's ambitions, he did not think that the other party could pose much threat to Bluestar Technology. Old Zhang thought in his heart that he had N ways to defeat his opponent, and he waited until all N methods were used. After that, Lao Zhang finally began to realize something was wrong with Nima.
Today, especially since the second half of this year, the global conquest of Tik-Tok, the international version of Douyin, has made the world "tremble".
Zhang Bowen said in a deep voice: "The great thing about Zhang Yiming is that Tik-Tok's success can be replicated in all major markets around the world. The overseas version is so attractive, and there are not many changes in the way of playing. Overseas users are also playing the game. Gu games, sitcoms, jokes, somersaults, lip-synching, etc. The only difference is that the people in the short videos are no longer East Asian faces, and the language has changed."
Yao Jianhong nodded, and after a while, he also analyzed: "The rise of ByteDance is also within my focus. The ice-breaking of Tik-Tok in different overseas markets is due to accidental factors such as Bluestar Technology being involved in too much energy by North America. Exists, but in general, its operating ideas should be the same as that of domestic Douyin."
Seeing that the brother company Bluestar Technology is so anxious now, Yao Jianhong's sense of crisis has also increased a bit. The Côte d'Azur is also facing a situation of lagging behind competitors in the field of smart homes, and facing not one or two opponents, but a group.
The old international manufacturers such as Nokia, Motorola, and BlackBerry, which were killed or disabled by the Côte d’Azur, have not yet cooled their bodies. Yao Jianhong does not want to go to them.
But relatively speaking, the situation on the Côte d'Azur is much better. The Dabai robot is a real killer, which gives Yao Jianhong great confidence.
But the sense of crisis really exists. Being strong now does not mean that you can continue to be strong. Your own rise is based on stepping on the corpses of the old giants. There are many people who have the idea of ​​"that can replace them".
When Yao Jianhong finished speaking, Lao Zhang nodded and said: "You’re right. Zhang Yiming first increased his investment by hundreds of millions and burned money to attract celebrities. Then, the celebrity effect brought him a large number of young seed users. The first batch of traffic was brought in; then, relying on super strong operation to detonate word of mouth. His three axe not only flourishes for domestic use, but also tried repeatedly in mature markets such as Japan, Europe, and North America."
At this time, Yao Jianhong looked at the other party and said, "Lao Zhang, you rushed to me in a hurry, don't you want me to be your thug?"
Hearing this, Zhang Bowen helped his head and coughed a few times, then looked at the other person and said straightforwardly: "Well, you and I will not sell you, you guessed it, I came here this time to ask you to do it once. AOS and WOS blocked byte-based products. Just that, Zhang Yiming has to peel off his skin without dying. In addition, Bluestar Technology continues to increase its efforts, even if he can live, he will breathe a sigh of relief."
This trick is really ruthless, and it's a totally unreasonable trick to behave as a hooligan.
And this is what Zhang Yiming fears most. As long as the Blue Coast also intervenes in this dispute, it will do its best to suppress the byte beating. A carelessness may directly cool the rhythm.
Smart phones are currently the core carrier foundation of the mobile Internet. Blocking from the AOS and WOS ends means that about 65% of mobile phone users worldwide are directly isolated and can only absorb users in the Android camp.
And behind Android is Google. Google is a Silicon Valley technology giant. Now Laomei is not only unhappy with Bluestar Technology and the Blue Coast, but also with all the people with the surname "Hua". Tik-Tok's current momentum is also very present in North America. , Has already entered the sight of Lao Mei, Zhang Yiming has already felt the strong hostility of Lao Mei.
In order to understand the operation of the baby's goods, I will arrange for you someday.
Therefore, even if ByteDance is gaining momentum now, its fragile side is objectively present. Once it collapses, it is the rhythm of blood collapse. Although Zhang Yiming showed off his achievements in the circle of friends and complained, he also felt a sense of crisis. Full.
"It's definitely not possible, Lao Zhang, it's not that I don't want to help you, but that I can't. Once I do this, the damage to the third-party developer community will cause a sequelae that may not be healed for ten years, which shakes the third-party development. The foundation of the community, and this will shake the core competitiveness of the Riviera."
When Yao Jianhong listened to the other party’s request, he refused without even thinking about it, and added:
If you want to block from the consumer terminal, Zhang Yiming must make his own mistakes. Just like the blockade of'intension', everyone There is nothing to say."
Yao Jianhong said that he would not open this head. As long as he sits in this position and is in charge of the Blue Coast, he cannot be passed.
Once this kind of head start, what will other third-party developers think? Will a certain product rise in the future, and as long as it threatens you, will it be an indiscriminate blockade?
This will not only cause troubles such as a series of lawsuits and anti-monopoly investigations on the Blue Coast. The most deadly thing is that the vitality of the developer community will no longer exist and gradually evolve into a stagnant pool. Some people with lofty ideals will inevitably worry about their products. When he got up, he was finally ruthlessly blocked by the blue coast and died.
These people with lofty ideals are precisely the core groups that ensure the vitality of the community.
It's simply pushing excellent developers to the Android camp. Those in Google management who want to see this happen, Larry Page will probably laugh out loud in his dreams.
Zhang Bowen smiled bitterly for a long time without saying a word, only to see him leaning back on the sofa looking at the ceiling and sighing: "Using the current Internet buzzwords, the baby feels bitter."
Yao Jianhong couldn't help but smile and said: "Lao Zhang~EbookFREE.me~ You knew before you came that I would not agree to it. It's not clear. You just want to find someone to make a complaint and release the recent pressure. You can only be bored with Xing Technology, you have pain in your heart but you can’t speak, you can’t be discouraged to subordinates and hurt morale, and you are embarrassed to go to Mr. Luo for your boss, so you can only come to me, I know, maybe someday I will also go to you, in the same situation as you."
Zhang Bowen muttered to himself: "What you said is correct. It is really good to top others. It is really uncomfortable to be topped by others. You can feel the taste of both ends, Mad."
If the poor baby Zhang knew that Bytedance and Tik-Tok had been arranged by his immediate boss for a long time, he would not have suffered so much and would not come to Yao Jianhong for comfort.
It's just that they are still kept in the dark, including Zhang Yiming and everyone outside.
Co-authored for a long time, is the left hand hit the right?
Don't bring such a trick.
