Chapter 285 Permanent free navigation? Wang Zha!

If you use a third-party novel APP or various browser plug-ins to open this website, the content may be displayed out of order. Please try to access this website using a mainstream browser later. Thank you for your support!
Regarding Ma Dong's hatred, Zhang Long was helpless:
"Chairman, let's talk about using AutoNavi to travel around the area and eat nearby food. You can navigate there directly."
"But our soso map is just a junior map. It has not yet launched a mobile version. It only has web page route planning and does not even have navigation functions!"
"I want to learn how to chat about surrounding travel and surrounding food on WeChat, but I can't do it. SOSO map and Amap are too different!"
It is precisely because of this that the current Amap 50 monthly subscription has 40 million users.
The previous free navigation of Sogou Maps was only used by millions of people. The map resource package, navigation package and accuracy were not at the same level.
Tencent's SOSO map is not as good as Sogou map. It has not even launched a mobile version, let alone navigation!
After Tencent acquired Sogou in the previous life, it directly merged the immature SOSO map into Sogou Map. After many years, Sogou Map was canceled and changed to Tencent Map!
Ma Dong looked at Zhang Long and his tone became serious:
"The soso map is indeed too far off. But since Changchao has launched local tours and local delicacies, we can only bite the bullet and follow suit!"
"You should be aware of the strategic significance behind local travel and local delicacies. Don't you think these functions are not important? There is no need to add them, right?"
"Similarly, if you log in to Chat and bind your account, you can also receive the "Happy Xiaoxiaole" gift package, which contains three energy bottles. As for whether you get a big energy bottle or a small energy bottle, it depends on your luck!"
Don’t give up the free gift pack.
"It is location service providers and navigation companies that provide the most accurate navigation at the moment."
Zhang Long did not insist anymore this time: "The most popular thing at the moment is group buying. Wang Yi did not personally do group buying, but through the functions of surrounding food and surrounding travel, he directly brought the group buying into the chat."
Dare to try and allow failure is the norm in business.
"Energy bottle? It seems to be a key item. I have to download it for the gift package and chat. Tomorrow night I have to compete with a female star!"
"We have established chat player groups in various regions on the game homepages of "Defend Yuzu" and "Happy Xiaoxiaole". Interested users can join the group to exchange experiences based on their region."
The effect is obvious. In this wave, hundreds of millions of users of "Defend Yuzi" are directly bound to users of "Happy Xiaoxiaole".
“But with Amap, everything will be no problem!”
"In addition, Changchao has also collaborated with "Defend Yuzu" and "Happy Xiaoxiaole"!"
Over time, the founders have become mentally strong and calm.
Hearing this, many netizens were excited:
"200 gems is five yuan, plus a gift pack of magic props, Mr. Wang is so generous!"
The press conference continues:
“As Xingyi Technology’s annual strategic product, Changchat aims to provide everyone with the most useful, safest and most innovative social software for acquaintances, and will never disappoint everyone.”
"Amap is an underlying map data provider and invests hundreds of millions every year to survey and map maps and update them in real time."
Although QQ is not as prone to blocking and suppressing as Baidu, Wang Yi had to make preparations in advance and transfer users to the Changchat group!
Only by controlling users and traffic within your own base is it safe.
Hearing this, Director Ma nodded: "That's the truth. Let's first take a look at the next big move of Amap, and then decide what price to pay to acquire Baidu Navigation."
What's more, "Happy Fun" has team play!
There are many difficult levels that cannot be passed by one person. If you don’t want to make money, you have to form a team and go through them together.
After a brief period of depression, Ma Dong cheered up again.
In the early stage, "Happy Xiaoxiaole" was used to drive the growth of Changchao users, and in the later period, Changchao was used to maintain the continued popularity of "Happy Xiaoxiaole"!
At present, the main camp for players to communicate is still the QQ group, which originally was nothing.
Wang Yi directly integrated "Happy Xiaoxiaole" and Changchao from the bottom up.
Everyone was excited. Xingyi Technology had long announced that Amap would make big moves, and everyone was looking forward to it!
Wang Yi continued: "Whether you are driving, riding, traveling, etc., you will get lost when you come to an unfamiliar place."
This is also Wang Yi’s original intention to create Changcha!
To this end, Wang Yi has launched a game gift package temptation:
"In December last year, AutoNavi became the "No. 1" on Apple's best-selling application software list, and the navigation software ranked "No. 1"!"
Director Ma agreed very much: "Yes, Wang Yi's layout is simply a stroke of genius! WeChat must follow suit. But how to implement this function requires solving the map and navigation problems."
But now as soon as Changchat came out, he and Goose Factory were on opposite sides.
"Chanchao has also sent a New Year's Day game gift package to all users. Log in to Changchao and bind your account, and you can receive the "Defend Grapefruit" gift package, which contains 200 gems and a random magic item gift package!"
It is still a familiar marketing strategy. Although it is old-fashioned, it has been tried and tested time and time again!
"Everyone is welcome to download and chat, play "Defend Pomelo" and "Happy Match" with relatives and friends, listen to Xingyi music, watch Xingyi videos, travel around together, and enjoy the surrounding food! Of course, there are discounts for group purchases in the surrounding areas.
You won’t miss it either!”
In comparison, Wang Yi's steps are considered conservative. Far from launching dozens of projects a year like BAT, which can launch three or four platforms at once in the same field.
"But there is always hope!"
For example, in order to promote social networking, Baidu launched three social software at once. Even if they all fail, it doesn't matter. After a while, they will continue to launch new social software!
Similarly, in order to develop e-commerce, Tencent launches three or four e-commerce platforms at once. Even if they all fail, it doesn't matter.
"Yes, if we acquire Baidu Navigation and use Baidu's navigation and POI database, we can greatly improve our efficiency. If not, we can only slowly build soso maps!"
Wang Yi said and changed the topic: "At this point, the press conference has reached the last part, Amap Navigation!"
The social system for team communication is to chat!
To put it bluntly, users can’t even form teams without having to chat freely.
"Once Changchao becomes bigger and the number of users increases, the fate of those group buying platforms will be controlled by Changchao, and they will have to pay to grab Changchao's traffic! No matter who wins the Thousand Group War, Wang Yi's Changchao will win.
Got it!"
"It can be said that we, AutoNavi, are not only the overlord of underlying map data, but also a leader in the navigation industry."
The current BAT really does everything and invests crazily. It can invest in dozens of projects a year, but most of them fail in the end.
A sigh of helplessness.
Even if only one tenth of the game users are converted into Changchat users, Changchat can have tens of millions of users.
"Register now and bind to chat. It just so happens that there are still a few levels left before reaching full stars, so here it is!"
"WeChat was completely crushed by Changchao. Soso was completely beaten by Amap. Alas!"
"Even so, we at AutoNavi are still making breakthroughs and leading the navigation era."
"For example, the latest version launched by Amap today has launched the HD Traffic high-definition traffic information service, ushering in the era of dynamic navigation."
"What is high-definition traffic information service?" Wang Yi paused:
"The traffic information, congestion information, and navigation arrival time displayed by other navigation software are mainly calculated based on historical traffic data, which is very inaccurate."
"It is precisely for this reason that some maps guide a route without congestion. It is expected to arrive at nine o'clock, but it turns out that it is extremely congested and it is still on the road at ten o'clock."
"Amap's HD Traffic high-definition traffic information service relies on the GSM system, GPS system, and real-time traffic information provided by partners such as transportation departments, commercial fleets, taxi companies, etc. to display real-time road conditions and real-time congestion information!"
“Through the weighted evaluation of the accuracy of real-time traffic information sources, we can more accurately provide non-congested routes or congestion avoidance methods, and provide more accurate navigation time and arrival times!”
"Simply put, Kailider Navigation and Baidu Navigation provide navigation information based on historical traffic data. Amap Navigation provides navigation information based on historical traffic data + real-time traffic data! Naturally, it is more precise and accurate."
"Wow!" Thunderous applause sounded.
Real-time navigation information is naturally much better than historical information estimation.
"In order to update map data in real time, Amap has also developed and customized a three-dimensional panoramic acquisition vehicle, which has been officially put into use."
"In the future, when people are quiet at night, Amap's three-dimensional panoramic collection vehicles will be dispatched one after another, walking in the streets and alleys across the country, to collect the latest and most accurate data for everyone. Moreover, they will be dispatched at night without causing traffic jams."
"Wow!" The thunderous voice sounded again.
Gaode has given people too many surprises.
The development to this day is all due to strength.
Wang Yi changed the subject: "All achievements are the result of huge investment."
"Amap's investment in R&D is very high. Even if the mobile phone navigation subscription costs 50 yuan per month, it can barely sustain a loss."
Hearing this, everyone's hearts skipped a beat. Listening to this, could it be that the price is going to increase?
Wang Yi guessed what everyone was thinking: "Do you think Gaode is going to raise prices?"
"Yes!" everyone said one after another.
Wang Yi waved his hand: "No, the price will not increase, on the contrary!"
"I think the current navigation prices are too expensive, ridiculously expensive!"
"As a virtuous old director, I can't stand it anymore!"
"Hahaha!"
There was a burst of laughter at the scene. Is it okay to complain about myself?
It is even more full of expectations. Is it possible that AutoNavi has spent huge sums of money to launch HD Traffic high-definition traffic information service and real-time collection of 3D collection vehicles, but it still does not increase the price, or even lowers the price?
No way?
Is there such a good thing?
Wang Yi eloquently said: "Currently, there are only three companies in the world that can use and accurately navigate and will not lead people into ditches."
“Kailade Navigation costs 108 yuan a month! It’s so expensive!”
“AMAP Navigation costs 50 yuan a month, which is also very expensive.”
"As for Baidu Navigation..." Wang Yi sighed: "Forget it, let's not talk about it, their underlying map authorization is about to expire, and they will either sell themselves or go bankrupt, so we won't care."
"Hahaha!" Everyone at the scene burst into laughter again.
The barrage has become even more interesting:
"Director Wang is somewhat gloating about his misfortune."
"You deserve it. Who asked Baidu to block Xingyi Video first? Is it okay now? It was blocked by Amap Navigation."
"Those who come out to fool around always have to pay back. Baidu Navigation cannot be used. It's really hard to do."
"Yes, I'm ready to switch to Gaode, but it's a bit expensive, and it's only fifty per month!"
Li Yan's face turned green: "!!!"
"Expose me in public and let everyone know that Baidu Navigation has no underlying map, so who dares to continue using it?"
"Wang Yi, you didn't even let me earn money in the last year!"
"you are vicious!"
For a moment, Li Yan was angry and regretful.
If Xingyi's video had not been blocked and Wang Yi had not been provoked, he would not have been beaten so badly!
But unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.
Wang Yi continued: "In the future, AutoNavi will provide you with more accurate and advanced real-time navigation services, and will also give you more beautiful prices!"
"Fifty yuan a month, that's 600 a year! It's so expensive!"
"Users' money doesn't come from strong winds, right?"
"Yes!" everyone at the scene said one after another.
"Then, let's cut it for 300 yuan!"
In an instant, the whole place was in a state of shock!
"Damn it, 50% off, 300 yuan a year, 25 yuan a month! Mr. Wang is so generous!"
"Reducing the monthly subscription from 50 to 25, okay, Mr. Wang is great!"
"Last year, the navigation fee was 600. This year, 300 is enough. That's great, Mr. Wang, I will be a lifelong fan!"
"Amap launches HD Traffic, a better service at a 50% discount on the price. It is conscience and the conscience of the industry!"
"Amap Navigation is only 25 a month, who the hell is still using 108 Kay Rucker? As for Baidu, which is 30, the underlying map authorization has expired, which is even more unreliable."
"Dr. Wang, you are such a good man! Just break your bones!"
Even the barrage is first-class touching and supportive, it’s amazing...
Li Yan's mouth twitched: "I thought Amap would drop to 30, but if we drop it to 20, we can still make some money. Now that Amap has dropped to 25, what about Baidu Navigation? It can only be dropped to 15!"
“If you don’t make money, you don’t make money at all!”
"Oh, it's difficult!"
Just when Li Yan had a severe headache and the user was excited, Wang Yi waved his hand: "Three hundred a year is still expensive. If you cut it again, it will be 200!"
The barrage exploded!
"666! Wang Dong is mighty!"
"200 a year, only 16.6 a month, it's a great deal."
"It's a 30% discount. Wang Dong is a good friend! It's interesting! I'll download it and chat now. I must support it!"
"Yes, I will be a die-hard fan of Xingyi Technology from now on! No one can stop me. All products will be replaced by Xingyi Technology."
Director Ma also sighed: "Just raise the navigation price to 200. There's nothing we can do anymore. There's really nothing we can do. We'll lose money completely."
"Yes." Zhang Long was also very helpless: "Wang Yi directly offered a 30% discount, which simply left no way to survive. Even if we accept Baidu Navigation, it will not be easy to set the price after integration. He costs 16 yuan a month, and we can survive for 10 yuan.
, only 120 a year, when will you earn back the 1 billion you spent to acquire Baidu Navigation?”
Director Ma snorted coldly: "Huh! Navigation doesn't make any money anymore. Naturally, we can't spend another billion to buy Baidu Navigation. It's only 500 million. Li Yan loves to sell it or not!"
Navigation was profitable in the past, but Chairman Ma also wanted to acquire Baidu Navigation for 1 billion.
Now that there is no profit, then Baidu Navigation is worthless!
Wang Yi continued: "200 yuan a year, do you think it is expensive?"
“Not expensive!”
"expensive!"
"What? 200 yuan a year is expensive?" Wang Yi smiled: "Okay, let's cut it again, 200 yuan, and free navigation for five years!"
"What!"
"200 yuan for free navigation for five years? 40 yuan for a year?"
"Crazy, Mr. Wang is crazy!"
"Wang Dong is mighty!"
"Wang Dong is domineering!"

Li Yan was very angry: "200 yuan for five years, forty yuan a year, what's the difference between this and giving it away for free? How can we sell Baidu Navigation? Isn't this nonsense?"
Director Ma also had a complicated expression: "In order to kill Baidu Navigation, Wang Yi really didn't even make any money, madman! Wang Yi is a madman!"
"The navigation business can't be done anymore. Losing money is just losing money! Do it whoever wants to do it, I won't do it anymore!"
Zhang Long frowned slightly: "Chairman, if you don't do navigation, how can we do the local tours and local delicacies on WeChat?"
"..." Director Ma was silent for a long time and said: "Tell Baidu that Baidu Navigation is worth 300 million. If you like it, sell it or not. If you don't sell it, it's impossible to get it to 50 million yuan."
"Okay!" Zhang Long nodded: "Wang Yi has done this, whether it is the bottom-level map dealer or the upper-level application provider, it is all over!"
The press conference continued: "Amap Navigation, free navigation for 200 yuan for five years, are you satisfied?"
"satisfy!"
"Very satisfied!"
This time, not even a single person said they were dissatisfied.
Originally it was 600 yuan a year and 3,000 yuan in five years. Wang Yi worked directly to 200 yuan in five years and only 40 yuan a year. What else is there to be dissatisfied about?
This is not a fracture, this is a comminuted fracture!
Wang Yi waved his hand: "I'm not satisfied yet!"
“Continue to add more, 200 yuan, and free navigation for ten years!”
"Wow!"
Thunderous applause sounded again, and everyone stood up.
Excited, so excited!
The barrage exploded.
Wang Yi continued: "Keep adding more money! AutoNavi, only 200 yuan, free navigation forever! The average cost is less than 40 cents a month, it's free!"
"That's right, I, Wang Yi, want to flip the table and make the best, most accurate and most advanced Amap navigation affordable for users across the country!"
"Wow!"
Thunderous applause resounded throughout the Water Cube, deafening.
The barrage even exploded:
"Dr. Wang, you are my brother! You are so awesome, so awesome!"
"200 yuan of permanent free navigation. Did I not wake up? Is this such a good thing?"
"Let everyone be able to use AutoNavi! Director Wang, you have such a conscience. I haven't seen such a conscientious company in many years."
However, just when everyone thought it was over, Wang Yi waved his hand:
"Do you think this is the end? No, there are still discounts!"
"Amap Navigation, 200 yuan, permanent free navigation. Anyone who uses Changchao for more than a month will receive another 50, equivalent to 150, permanent navigation!"
"Wow!"
The overwhelming applause resounded throughout the Water Cube, and everyone stood up excitedly.
Surprise, what a surprise!
The barrage completely exploded:
"200 yuan is super cheap, I will give you fifty yuan back, Wang Dong is a good person!"
"150 yuan free navigation forever, this is not Mr. Wang, this is Mr. Wang!"
"It's incredible, now everyone can use navigation."
"Friends Navigation costs dozens of yuan a month, or even 108 yuan a month, and Amap Navigation costs 150 yuan for a lifetime! Wang Dong is mighty!"
"Thanks to Chairman Wang, the era of national navigation is coming!"
"I'm really worried that if this continues, Gaode will die!"
"Dr. Wang is a kind person and a conscientious entrepreneur. He will become a fan in the future and fully support Xingyi Technology."
"I have registered for Chat and will place an order for xphone 1."
"Goodbye iPhone 4s, I'm going to switch to the top-of-the-line xphone 1+x buds!"
"Dong Wang dotes on users and fans, and we have to give back and support Dong Wang. Goodbye WeChat, please use Changchat for future contact!"
"I am a truck driver and cannot do without navigation. I have to spend 600 a year, which is 6000 in ten years! Thanks to Mr. Wang, I have saved a lot of money! My mobile phone is not easy to use, so I just changed it to xphone 1!"
"I am a taxi driver. In the past, my wife bought Meiyou clothes, but I thought they were too expensive. Now that Mr. Wang is so conscientious, from now on, my daughter-in-law can buy Meiyou clothes as she pleases!"
Wang Yi waved his hand and everyone at the scene became quiet:
"Okay, it's gone this time. We can't cut it anymore. We've already lost everything. If we cut it again, we'll lose it!"
"Hahaha!" Everyone at the scene burst into laughter, with excitement on their faces.
Wang Yi changed the topic: "In addition, users who have purchased annual membership of AutoNavi can enjoy permanent free navigation. Any extra money paid can be refunded in proportion by contacting customer service!"
"A worry-free journey, accompanied by high virtue!"
"Thank you for your support. This strategic conference has concluded successfully!"
"Thanks!"
The music sounded, and the New Year's Day press conference came to an end with the cheers of everyone present.
The barrages in the live broadcast room are even more persistent.
excited!
Excited!
For 150 yuan, you could only buy Amap Navigation for three months before, but now you can buy permanent free navigation!
It really moved the table, what a surprise!
For a time, both the on-site media and netizens watching the live broadcast were all rushing to tell each other.
They downloaded AutoNavi one after another, paid 200, and rushed to buy permanent free navigation.
I was afraid that if I arrived late, the event would be over and I would definitely make a mistake.
After recharging, download Chat again.
For ordinary people, 50 yuan is not a small amount of money.
For fifty yuan, it is worth downloading Chat, not to mention that Chat has so many new features and is so easy to use!
Not to mention the current WeChat 0, even the subsequent WeChat 0 cannot compare.
As a result, the number of users of AutoNavi and Changchao has increased rapidly.
Together with the sales of xphone 1 and x buds, there has been a crazy blowout.
Even the number of users of Xingyi Video and Xingyi Music has increased rapidly.
The number of downloads of "Happy Xiaoxiaole" has skyrocketed!
There is no way, Wang Yi's operation is so fan-attracting, it is simply the conscience of capital!
However, people's joys and sorrows are not the same.
Xingyi Technology is in a good situation here, with a rapid increase in users, hot sales of products, and a flood of money coming in.
But Baidu's side is gloomy and gloomy.
Li Yan couldn't calm down for a long time: "Wang Yi is too cruel, he is overturning the table!"
"150 yuan, free navigation forever, that's nonsense! What's the difference between this and free navigation?"
"What a nonsense!"
"He is not giving us Baidu Navigation any chance to survive!"
"Too cruel!"
All the senior executives were silent, but they didn't even dare to fart.
In the current situation, Xingyi Technology has made it clear that it is going to flip the table and flip the table of the entire navigation market!
After a long time, Li Yan sighed: "There's nothing we can do. The navigation industry can't be done! Inform Qu Xin and ask him to sell Baidu Navigation to Penguin as soon as possible. Don't just ask for one billion, just 500 million. As for authorization, don't ask for five."
Years have passed, just three years. The navigation business is over!”
"good!"
Tencent headquarters.
Director Ma's face was solemn, as if facing a formidable enemy: "150 yuan for free navigation forever! Wang Yi has turned the tables in the field of navigation, and even smashed the pot! It's too cruel!"
"Chairman, what do you think he is after? Without free navigation, AutoNavi makes a lot of revenue a year, why is this so?" Zhang Long was a little unbelievable.
In the current field of mobile phone navigation, AutoNavi is the most profitable one.
As for Kay Rucker, it mainly earns a lot of money from car navigation, but not much from mobile phone navigation.
Otherwise, the monthly subscription price is 108, so anyone who is not short of money will use it.
"Now that Baidu has no future, and Kaili De's sales are too expensive, it doesn't matter if AutoNavi continues to do paid navigation. It is indispensable to make money! Why do you want to overturn the table?"
Director Ma sighed: "Old Zhang, you underestimate Wang Yi. What he cares about is not the loss of revenue from mobile phone navigation. On the contrary, he wants to overturn the entire market!"
"Let Baidu Navigation be finished, let Tencent Navigation be finished too! It will also make other friends and merchants stay away and be collectively finished!"
"In the future, Wang Yi's Gaode family will dominate the entire navigation market and monopolize the entire market!"
Zhang Long suddenly realized: "I see. If mobile navigation can make money as before, we at Tencent will vigorously develop navigation. Baidu will also start from the underlying map and continue to develop navigation. Even Alibaba will make its own navigation to ensure the underlying map strategy
It’s safe and profitable. But now that Wang Yi is so complete, the market is completely gone, and not many giants are willing to get involved.”
Director Ma nodded: "Yes, Wang Yi asked for it, that's the result. And Wang Yi also made a lot of money, even more! 150 permanent free navigation, how many users do you think it will attract, and how many people will be willing to pay?
?”
Zhang Long thought for a while: "Last year, there were more than 3.5 billion mobile navigation users in China. With the popularity of smartphones, it is possible that this year there will be more than 200 million mobile navigation users, or even 300 million."
"Most people will give up Kaili De and Baidu and choose to join AutoNavi. Even if 100 million people choose to pay, AutoNavi's revenue will exceed 20 billion. Excluding the 5 billion cashback from Changchao, there will still be 15 billion!
"
Zhang Long was shocked by himself: "Wang Yi is so clever! Not only did he turn over the mobile phone navigation table, he also smashed the pot, but he himself was full of it!"
"Yes, this is Wang Yi's brilliance. He has made the entire mobile phone navigation industry starved of food, and he has been able to support himself!"
Ma Dong's face was extremely solemn: "But this is not the scariest thing. It's just navigation. If it fails, it will fail. What's serious is that these users will also choose to use Chat for the 50 cash back!"
"As you just said, even if 100 million users pay 200, there will be 100 million users using Changchat in order to get cash back. Then Changchat will have 100 million more users! This is fatal to our WeChat!"
Zhang Long's face changed greatly: "Yes, our WeChat currently only has 70 million users. With Amap's cashback, I'm afraid it won't take long for Changcha to catch up with WeChat! After all, Changcha's function is more powerful than WeChat. In this way
, we are in big trouble with WeChat!”
Ma Dong nodded, breathing heavily: "Wang Yi's combination of punches, is he doing it to Baidu? Or is he doing it to Tencent?"
"Why do I feel like this guy is here just for us, Tencent?"
"This..." Zhang Long also fell silent. The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong!
