In Xinyu Liu’s blog, he states we-chat, kind of communication app that allows people sending word message and voice message, is commonly used in China. Before the lunching of we-chat, people use traditional communication method, sending message and phone call. After the lunching of we-chat, with the feature of not charging any fee from consumers, it is about to replace the normal message and even phone call.  The number of its consumers rapidly increased to more than 80 million at the end of 2011. We-chat is creating a new way of communication.

Generally, I agree with Xinyu Liu. As a Chinese, it is not hard to see the rapid increase in the number of people begin to use we-chat instead of sending message. This app benefit people a lot by providing free message sending services combined with the creative idea of sending voice messages. Development in technology allows apps like we-chat occurring and gives people more convenient way of communication. For businesses providing telecommunication services, in order to avoid to be replaced by the newly emerged communication apps; they are supposed to focus more on the advancing of technology and take advantage of technology process to create more convenient way of communication.
