Tencent Holdings Limited is a Chinese
investment holding company whose subsidiaries provide Internet and mobile phone
value-added services and operate online advertising services in China. It is
famous for its main product, the instant massager - Tencent QQ. QQ is a copy of
ICQ back in 1999and its original name is OICQ. QQ is the first and most famous
clone of Tencent. After years of accumulation, Tencent has more than billions
of users, more than 700 millions of them are actively. The large amount of
users is the key to Tencent's success. for example, Tencent has many many many
other softwares and applications. Such as micro blog, blog, email, input,
browser, payment platform and online shopping website. Of course there are many
other brands of these application or website out there. But, first of all, you
will not need to register each time, secondly, all your friends and contacts
are using the same, why wouldn't you? As long as it is not worse than others,
and sometimes, it is even better.
Why is Tencent so success that it is now
one of the largest web portals in China? Let's have a look at Tencent's clones.
QQ is a clone of ICQ, but it is more humanization and has more functions.
Paipai.com is a clone of Taobao, though it is not as good as Taobao, but the
large amount of users still give it a really high hit. QQ show is a clone of
Cyworld but it has much more nicer avatar and outfits, and it is linked to QQ.
Tencent weibo is a clone of Sina weibo. Tencent was launched more than half
year after than Sina, but again, the users of Tencent helped it to become one
of the only two success micro blog service providers. TenPay is a clone of
Alipay which is the payment platform of Taobao. So as we can see, Tencent is
very busy copy things from others that has no time to developing their own
products. But it got success by its users and fast learning.
However, personally I don't like Tencent
very much. I use only QQ from Tencent but nothing else. Do you use anything
from Tencent and if no, would you like a enterprise like Tencent?
