Recently on Weibo’s hot search, the He Tuber topic of “WeChat charges” has attracted a lot of discussion. Looking into the details, it turns out that WeChat’s charges this time are for “micro-short drama mini-programs”, which are not much different from ordinary users. relation. But in other words, if WeChat really charges, what would you think?

Before starting today's article, Xiao lei first tests his friends:

If you don’t think about it carefully, can everyone immediately tell you what membership services are activated by the APP on your mobile phone?

I guess very few people can accurately tell the correct answer. It's not that we have a bad memory, but that there are so many members.

Yes, that's right, now that time has come, Internet products have already reached the point where "everything can be a member."

Internet products covering daily life such as food, clothing, housing and transportation can arrange a wave of members based on various needs.

Moreover, fueled by the membership wave, some free products are sufficient, but they are far less exciting than earning money to become stronger!

Looking back at the apps on mobile phones, for takeout, shopping, taxi-hailing, online storage, office, etc., which one is not a push for membership?

Of course, there are exceptions. WeChat, a national-level free social APP, does not have a membership mechanism and focuses on the principle of equality for all.

However, Xiao Lei had to say no.

A few days ago, I was surfing the Internet to find topics to choose from, and Brother B sent me a link that made people dumbfounded - WeChat actually charges a fee!

No, no, no, is it possible that WeChat is also following the big brother QQ next door and is preparing to make money by offering various memberships?

It’s about everyone’s vital interests, so Xiao lei doesn’t dare to neglect it. What’s going on with “WeChat charging”? Let's chat.

After all, it is a national-level super APP. As soon as the topic #微信charge# came out, it quickly became a hot search on Weibo.

The netizens were all talking about one thing, and the Eight Immortals expressed their opinions on WeChat charging, causing a huge quarrel. Some netizens are still confused, wondering whether WeChat charges are real or fake.

Some netizens immediately grasped the key point. If WeChat charges fees, what items are charged for?

Some netizens are already making up their own minds, linking the number of WeChat chats with VIP, and charging money to chat normally.

Xiao lei took a closer look and found that the matter of #微信charge# is actually different from what most netizens know.

First of all, let’s be clear: WeChat has indeed launched a charging project in the near future, but it is not for us ordinary users.

Well, WeChat’s charges this time are for “micro-short drama mini-programs”.

Recently, some short drama practitioners have received notices from the WeChat public platform, stating that they need to pay a "deposit".

This thing is a bit similar to the store deposit on e-commerce platforms. The specific amount depends on the total transaction amount of the goods.

So, some short drama mini programs may require a payment of 1,000 yuan, while some mini programs may only require a payment of only 100 yuan.

However, the consequences of not submitting the application are similar. The functions of the mini program will be limited, including but not limited to limiting mini program search, etc.

This wave of operations on WeChat was still expected by Xiao lei. Some friends may remember the popular micro-short drama I talked about before.

The plot is cool, the cost is low and the money is earned. Micro-short dramas have developed particularly rapidly in the past two years, but industry standards have not kept up.

This has led some people to make more money by capturing people's attention and pollute the market by filming and uploading short dramas with incorrect views.
