Moreover, Meituan, a subsidiary of Wujiang Group, has a monopoly in the food delivery sector, so it's hard to believe that food delivery merchants won't give them face.

Uber rides can also provide a QR code for payment, reducing cash transactions.

In short, Wujiang Group wants you to use QR code payments, so you will never need to use cash.

At 11:00 AM on February 24th, Alipay, WeChat, and Facebook jointly held a press conference, which caused a sensation.

At the press conference, the atmosphere instantly erupted as the CEOs of the three companies appeared on stage simultaneously.

"My goodness, there's bound to be big news today! Alipay, Facebook, and WeChat—each one is a dominant force, and the fact that all three are appearing on the same stage is truly astonishing!"

Everyone stared intently at the three people on the stage, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Sure enough, in the subsequent press conference...

The three people took turns introducing mobile payment, a new payment method based on offline QR code scanning, which allows people to no longer use cash or credit cards when they go out!

As the experts described the events, vivid images involuntarily appeared in everyone's minds.

Immediately afterwards, a seven- or eight-minute video began playing on the large screen at the press conference. The video showed the audience in detail the various usage scenarios of mobile payment, which not only deepened people's understanding of mobile payment but also aroused everyone's interest!

As soon as the video ended, thunderous applause erupted from the audience and lasted for a long time.

"Buying steamed buns and soy milk at a steamed bun shop in the morning, having lunch at a restaurant, and going shopping in the evening... Mobile payment is everywhere, it's amazing, cash is going to be phased out!"

"It feels so sci-fi! Even sci-fi wouldn't dare to write something like this, but in reality, we've actually achieved it!"

"Technology changes lives, and Wujiang Group has always been at the forefront of the times. It truly deserves to be called one of the greatest companies of our time!!!"

"..."

The audience was amazed and impressed, and filled with anticipation, wishing they could leave the press conference immediately and experience the joy of mobile payment at a nearby store.

"Ahem! Everyone, please be quiet. The mobile payment function will officially launch at 12 noon today, so please be patient. Also, we have some good news to share!"

Zhang Xiaolong announced loudly, paused, and seeing that everyone was captivated by the good news he was about to share, slowly continued, "Next, we will be launching a week-long cash-drawing event for QR code payments! Whenever consumers use QR code payments offline, they will have one chance to win cash, limited to 10 times per day. The prize amount is related to the purchase amount. For example, if you purchase 100 yuan worth of goods, the prize amount will range from 0 to 100 yuan. In other words, if you're lucky enough to win 100 yuan, you won't have to spend a single penny; this entire transaction will be covered by Alipay, Facebook, and WeChat!"

That's what they say, but in reality, very few people actually win the full prize.

What is the profit margin on a single item? If it's 30%, and I let you take 10%, then I can still earn 20%. Of course, it's acceptable for some people to take more and some to take less, as long as the average is 10%.

This is basically a discount promotion!

You must always believe that when you feel you've made a profit, Wujiang Group will only make more.

At this moment, the guests in the audience and the viewers watching the press conference live were all pleasantly surprised.

"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap! Wujiang Group is throwing money around again! They're such generous spenders! I love them to death! You can even win prizes when you buy things? There's no way the world is this good!!!" netizens exclaimed in astonishment, already itching to go shopping at the stores outside. What if they got lucky and won the full prize? Wouldn't they be able to get something for free? Even if they couldn't get the full prize for free, at least they could save a little money, right?

"Brothers, it's time to test your luck! Charge! The more you spend, the more cash you win! Luxury cars and villas await!!!"

"Damn, you're smart, bro! If Wujiang Group saw what you said, they'd probably cry themselves to sleep in the bathroom!"

"Brother, you're awesome! I've learned something new. I'm going to pick up my car right now!!!"

"Hahahaha, of course! I'm a pro at getting freebies!"

"..."

Unexpectedly, a wave of people wanting to take advantage of Wujiang Group has swept the internet.

Wishful thinking, absolutely wishful thinking.

Can you really take advantage of Wujiang Group's offers?

Zhao Ye and the group's senior executives were all grinning from ear to ear. "The city is full of tricks; you should all go back to the countryside..."

The press conference had ended by then, and it was almost noon.

Amidst much anticipation, Alipay and Facebook in China have updated their systems and launched mobile payment functions, primarily introducing payment codes and receiving codes.

At this time, merchants who had already partnered with Wujiang Group immediately posted their pre-prepared QR codes in their stores.

Some merchants have also purchased QR code scanning machines specially launched by Wujiang Group. Consumers show their payment code, and the machine scans it to complete the transaction.

Money moves people's hearts, and winning the lottery brings joy.

During the lunch break, many people flocked to stores under the Wujiang Group.

Good heavens, all the stores are packed.

A long queue of over 100 meters formed outside a Wujiang Supermarket in Shanghai, leaving the Walmart supermarket across the street dumbfounded.

"My God, what's going on at Wujiang Supermarket? Business is so good, it's unbelievable!" A sales assistant looked across the street through the window, full of doubt.
