Chapter 484 Never Compromise!

"Now the reward function of the live broadcast platform obviously bypasses IAP, which also means that Apple will lose 30% of its commission income. That is to say, if you want to continue rewarding in the app, you must go to Apple's in-app purchase system. The result of this is either to increase users' spending by 30% to spread the cost, or the live broadcast platform bears the losses themselves."

"We know that domestic live broadcast platforms are basically in the stage of losing money. If Apple really takes action, it will be a very big blow."

"In fact, this situation has been happening for a long time. Many of the in-app purchase content on the iOS version of the entire platform are more expensive than other platforms, so the in-app often reminds users to purchase on pc, web page or Android platform, and then use it in the iOS version."

...

Among the many heavyweight apps in China, the top ten Weibo posts are the first to kneel down at Apple and show off their white flag.

"It is reported that Apple and Sina Weibo have reached an agreement: Apple will charge 30% of the handling fee for the onlooker income from the iOS client. This fee seems to be overbearing and seems to be unreasonable. Apple should explain the legal basis for the charge and fairness and reasonableness."

"Although the market is relatively free, should the regulatory side intervene moderately, under the banner of knowledge being valuable, and knowledge providers can only get 23% in the end. Is this a bit ironic! The criticized unfair income distribution has been the most perfect demonstration in this matter."

"If one thing makes almost everyone realize unfairness, then there are only two reasons: one is the lag in legislation, and the other is the poor legislation. There will be no third. In summary, Apple disregards social fairness and blatantly charges 30% of Weibo reward fees, which is not only a bullying of Chinese consumers, but also a mockery of Chinese laws!"

"I think of my great country, the billions of people, when Apple's imperialist actions forced the wealth of our people, no one protested. It's a national humiliation!"

After the white flag was revealed on Weibo, more domestic apps also showed off their white flags in order to avoid being removed from Apple, and had to pay 30% of the handling fee to Apple in exchange for living space, otherwise the company's losses would be even heavier.

...

Netizens commented on Apple's hegemony.

"Apple notified many Chinese app companies, including WeChat, to disable the appreciation function, because Apple wants to earn more income from Chinese iPhone users, and every purchase of 30% of the platform commission is really considered as if there are many Chinese people who are stupid?"

"Mobile Telecom Unicom expressed dissatisfaction: Why does Apple phones use our cards to charge phone bills without charging 30% of the handling fee? Do you look down on us?"

"State Grid expressed dissatisfaction: I used the State Grid's electricity to charge my mobile phone, but the rewards from my mobile phone were not shared with me. I had to start the charging mode tomorrow!"

"My understanding may be a bit problematic. I spent thousands of dollars to buy a mobile phone and gave someone a tip. That mobile phone can still charge 30% of it. Doesn't this mobile phone not completely mine? The one who produced the mobile phone can still own 30% of the equity of my mobile phone, but the income belongs to them. If they are not happy, I can't use some functions that I could use but I still have to pay for? Thousands of dollars are actually just the rent of the mobile phone and the deposit that will never be refunded!"

"Give the author a reward, if you want to collect taxes, it will also give it to the country. Your apple is 30%, which is even darker than the country, and it is unreasonable!"

"Apple's doing this is actually not harmful to WeXun, because weXun itself does not share the money for rewards. What is really hurt are the majority of self-media public accounts and other groups that rely on rewards to earn income. They originally had 10,000 yuan a day, but Apple wanted to take away 3,000 yuan and make money from nothing!"

"In the past, a Douyu anchor advised netizens to use an Android phone to reward them when giving them rewards, and Apple will deduct money. Why has Apple become the world's highest market value company? The reason is very simple. It's not how good his products are sold, but that they use their products to grab a large amount of money that should not belong to him. The world's largest profiteer is Apple! I never think Apple is awesome, and never! Even without this incident, I think Apple is super disgusting!"

"China UnionPay, Alipay should cancel the support of the app store, making it difficult for Apple to move forward in China!"

"Damn it! Will Apple take 30% of the money transfers be collected by Apple in the future? Will Apple get 30% of the tax on buying things online? Will Apple collect 30% of the money transfer be collected? Apple is crazy about money, right? Although I am crazy about Apple's computer, I can't help but jump out and curse. This is a blatant robbery! Is there anyone else to care about it? Doesn't this constitute a monopoly?"

"This is obviously an innovation by Apple. In the future, Apple fans can say that I paid 30% of the fee to the Americans. Have you paid the domestic one?"

...

Apple requires a 30% handling fee. Among all domestic apps, Wang Qian's WeChat company is obviously the most affected, because five of the top ten apps in China are from Wang Qian's WeChat company.

Weibo has shown a white flag to Apple, and other apps have also shown a white flag to Apple. Now all the eyes on the Internet are focused on WeChat, and WeChat's attitude is crucial.

However, netizens are not optimistic about WeChat.

After all, Apple has a market value of more than US$700 billion, and it is the world's largest behemoth in the world today.

What about WeChat? Although under the leadership of Wang Qian, the market value has increased by leaps and bounds in the past six months, and the market value has increased several dozens of times, from RMB 10 billion to RMB 200 billion, and the market value has been over US$30 billion, compared with Apple, which has more than US$700 billion, it is completely different from the same magnitude.

The gap of more than 20 times is like a baby weighing several kilograms in the boxing ring, facing a heavyweight boxer of more than 100 kilograms, and his punch was smashed into pieces!

Even in the teasing articles of professional media reporters, I hope that some strong institutions in China in China would say no to Apple, and they all casually revealed that WeChat could not be Apple's opponent. In the end, WeChat could only surrender to Apple and kneel down and beg for mercy.

"Apple recently will collect 30% of the app's ios version. This has almost attracted a lot of criticism online, but Apple under Cooke's leadership is as tough as ever. Wechat would have to bow its head in the end. So far, few rebels have been seen."

"Many netizens expressed their support for WeChat and rejected Apple. In fact, it is just a saying. Even if it doesn't matter how much sales Apple has in China, how many Apple's existing mobile phones are still available on the market, do consumers just want to buy a new mobile phone for the applications of WeChat? Only netizens will imagine such a fighting method. WeChat will definitely not take risks. Merchants all want to make money. Sooner or later, Wang Qian will show off the white flag to Apple like Weibo, and seek a way out for life."

"When I booked the ticket, I suddenly looked at 12306 on my phone and was stunned for a moment. I wondered if Apple dared to charge 12306 30%. What would happen if it was accepted? If I had to be tough, to be honest, I have never seen a company that is stronger than 12306. Because of well-known reasons, not only in China, but also in China, even companies like Dongmenzi and Pang Badi, they all performed very lowly when dealing with 12306. It was not just companies, but I had hardly seen those who were striking against 12306 companies."

"For such a company, I feel that Apple is not brave enough to ask him for money. I also firmly believe that 12306 has never given Apple a penny before. I have never planned to give it to it in the future. If Apple is really bold and wants 30% of this, I believe that 12306 will never talk nonsense and will be removed overnight. As for the consequences, you know."

...

The most debated thing on the Internet is how long WeChat can last.

Some financial experts conducted in-depth analysis on this.

"What WeChat wants is development, and compromise is the inevitable result."

"The two most important products of WeChat and Kuukou are WeChat and Kuukou, but don't forget that the game business that can support the entire WeChat empire is also the game business. Just a single piece of Honor of Emperors has received 10 billion in wealth for WeChat in just over a year. What's more, there are many WeChat games, Kuukou casual games, etc.."

"Some people also think that WeChat needs to distinguish whether it is making games or socializing in the future. However, the two are not contradictory. Where can the game development come from without users? It can be predicted that WeChat will launch more games in the future, and these game players have many Apple users. In other words, the Apple App Store is a large platform for WeChat game layout, and WeChat does not dare to give up this platform at all."

"Apple suppressed the WeChat reward function and forced the WeChat reward system to shut down the WeChat reward system. Is this the end of the matter? Of course not. Both parties are waiting, and which party can't support it first. Will the users buy it if the WeChat system is missing? Will the user experience be reduced? Will the big vs of WeChat protest? Once protesting, will WeChat compromise with Apple?"

"WeChat's previous response strategy was to replace the appreciation with a QR code, and set the reward amount at will, but it was still rejected by Apple. We noticed that this is a transfer behavior within WeChat, involving the functions of the payment platform. Apple also chose to refuse to clearly show their attitude, that is, Apple still charges 30% of the fees for transferring money between WeChat users and sending red envelopes!"

"From the current development trend, Apple will definitely not compromise. Facing Apple, which has the largest market value in the world, WeChat will eventually be able to break its teeth and swallow it in its stomach with blood!"

...

There are many different opinions on the Internet, but how will WeChat Company respond and whether WeChat Company will compromise must be answered by the helmsman of WeChat Company in person.

Oh, by the way, the helmsman of WeChat Company is no longer Guo Tian, ​​but Wang Qian.

So, netizens gathered at Wang Qian’s Weibo to let Wang Qian express his views on this matter.

Wang Qian, like before, did not disappoint netizens. He quickly posted a new Weibo to respond to the incident.

First is a poem.

"There are a few flies hitting the wall in the small world. They buzz, shrill, and sobbing. Ants are exaggerating the country by locust trees, and how easy it is to shake the trees. The west wind is falling leaves under Chang'an, and the flying whistle is flying."

"How many things are always urgent; the world turns, time is forcing. Ten thousand years is too long, and we can only seize the day. The four seas are tumbling, clouds and water are angry, and the five continents are shaking, and the wind and thunder are surging. We must eliminate all harmful insects and be invincible."

Then there are a few words.
