Crackdown on Red Packet Codes? WeChat Accused of Restricting Alibaba's Qwen and Tencent's Yuanbao Code Copying
Alibaba's AI assistant, Qwen, launched a Spring Festival campaign offering 30 billion yuan in free orders. Within 5 hours of its launch, the campaign achieved over 5 million orders and topped the app store charts. However, during the campaign's popularity, the red packet sharing code was blocked within WeChat, making it impossible to copy normally, sparking controversy around the blocking.
