in 2013, the "ban" on taobao and wechat triggered a huge change in the internet ecosystem. this was just a "war" between two companies, but it profoundly affected the entire development trajectory of china's internet. at that time, alibaba and tencent, in pursuit of their own interests, banned each other and even used the words "wechat" and "taobao" as weapons. this competition troubled countless users and plunged the entire society into chaos.
however, the power of time is always ruthless. in 2021, wechat finally lifted the link blocking, allowing users to directly access taobao links in wechat. this marks another major change in the internet ecosystem.
alimama and tencent advertising officially announced their cooperation, opening up wechat's video account, moments and mini-program resources to taobao and tmall, thus achieving direct redirection. this interconnection makes wechat an important promotion channel for taobao and tmall.
from a technical perspective, the cooperation between alibaba and tencent has also brought new opportunities. alibaba has provided users with a more convenient payment method by connecting to wechat pay, while tencent has opened up new areas in the chinese market through wechat pay. this not only means a smoother user experience, but also brings huge business potential to both parties.
today, taobao and wechat have formed a close symbiotic relationship. users no longer need to face bans or blocks. they only need to enjoy better services and more convenient shopping experiences.
perhaps, we will see more such breakthroughs in the future, breaking the closed ecosystem and making china's internet more open, more diverse, and healthier.
