Now, Alipay has become the necessary software in everyone's mobile phone.

But who would have thought that a person's name was also called "Alipay", not a word bad.

And this person is an old man over 50 years old, whose name is decades earlier than the emergence of Alipay software.

He also sued Jack Ma for infringement and claimed one million yuan.

Is your name really Alipay?

What was the result of his claim against Jack Ma?

The emergence of Alipay

At the beginning of the 21st century, the internet was not popularized.

Although mobile phones have been invented, most of them are flip phones and cannot use the internet.

It can be said that the only way people come into contact with the internet is through computers.

But at that time, only a small proportion of people in China had computers, and the number of netizens was relatively small, let alone using electronic payments.

So the domestic electronic payment market is a blank, while European and American countries already have credit card payments and PayPal.

In October 2003, Taobao officially launched Alipay service.

Alipay's birth can be said to be "right time, right place and harmonious people".

At this time, someone will ask: Alipay has robbed banks of their jobs, and those banks do not care, so that Alipay can develop like this?

In the eyes of the bank, Alipay at that time was just a small guy.

The transaction of enterprises is mainly carried out by banks, so the banks don't look up to Alipay.

With the slow development of Ant Group, online shopping, a new way of shopping, has gradually become popular, and people can buy things without leaving home.

Coupled with the rampant promotion and distribution of coupons at that time, online shopping quickly became popular among young people.

Alipay was born nine years earlier than WeChat Pay. It has to be said that Jack Ma's business acumen is truly admirable.

Under his leadership, Alipay has launched a series of preferential policies and gradually linked them to national life.

As early as 2008, Alipay provided utilities and other living fees to the public.

Successfully attracting a large number of people to use it for living expenses by leveraging the advantages of convenient payment.

Guided by the general trend, Alipay launched QR code payment payment in 2011.

At that time, smartphones had already appeared in people's lives, and this extremely novel "QR code payment" immediately attracted people's attention.

At this time, Alibaba did not stay put, but immediately launched Huabei and Yu'ebao in 2013 and 2014.

It can be said that Alipay has become an indispensable tool for people, largely because of the emergence of these two functions.

Until now, Huabei has become a major force in our consumption and a hot topic in our daily lives.

Many people greet each other at the beginning of the month and say, "Did you pay back the flowers from last month

With the popularity of smart phones, the market of Alipay has become larger and more popular on the Internet.

It can be said that smart phones make Alipay more convenient.

But who would have thought that Alipay could have the same name.

In the village of Yinan County, Shandong Province, there is a family with the surname of "Zhi", which is just an ordinary peasant family.

In July 1962, Alipay was born.

Alipay ranks in the family as "Fu". In order to give this new life a good meaning, parents chose the third word of its name as "Bao".

Alipay's parents are more pragmatic in choosing names, and only hope that the children's life will be smooth and beneficial.

One is named "Alipay Shun" and the other is named "Alipay Fa".

People born in the 1960s have experienced many hardships in their growth, and Alipay is no exception.

He bears hardships and stands hard work. In addition to doing farm work, he also learned a lot of handicrafts, which can be said to be the best among his brothers and sisters to support himself.

But this is a large family, and relying solely on handicrafts and agricultural work is definitely not enough for their meager income.

After discussing with his family, Alipay decided to open a small shop in his village.

It not only fills the gap in this area in the village, seizes the market in advance, but also meets the needs of one's own life, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

After opening the shop, the family's Household goods are not only free from worries, but also have much more income than before. Not to mention being wealthy and wealthy, one can still support a family.

Uncle Alipay put all his thoughts on this shop.

With the development of the times, there were more and more things in this small shop, which quickly became a popular place in the town.

Every household likes to sit in the open space in front of the small shop, chatting and laughing, enjoying a beautiful life.

But this peaceful life was soon shattered.

In 2004, Alipay was launched on Taobao for the first time.

This novel and fast online payment has quickly attracted a large number of people's attention.

Indeed, for ordinary people, you only need to bind your bank card to pay through Alipay.

In this process, there is no need for complicated procedures, just input the payment password and use your fingers to complete it.

This is undoubtedly a simple and efficient payment method.

The earliest smartphone in China appeared in 2007, and the country began to vigorously promote smartphones in 2009.

In the same year, Alipay software was launched at the same time.

Although the country is promoting the popularization of smartphones, it is natural that no one knows or uses them in villages like my uncle's.

Naturally, they know nothing about Alipay.

Not long after, a tourist who came to the local area came to the master's shop.

After selecting some goods, the young man asked the man who was looking at the shop: "Can I use Alipay?

Uncle Alipay had a fever when he was a child, which left a big sequela, so his hearing was not very good.

When the old man heard his name, he smiled and replied, "Yes, I am Alipay."

This guy is also confused. I'm talking about Alipay software. What are you talking about?

Then he said to the old man again, "I said, can I use Alipay?"

The old man was confused when he heard the young man ask if he could use it, and answered that I was Alipay, how should I use it?

The young man immediately showed the icon on his phone to the master. The guy originally refers to the Alipay software with the blue icon on the mobile phone.

My uncle was also shocked when he saw the name. There should be mobile phone software with the same name as his own.

The guy also popularized the use and method of Alipay to me.

My uncle heard that the software called Alipay was so convenient, but it was a bit awkward.

However, this small matter didn't bother me either, and I told my family as a joke.

But with the gradual development of the times, I soon couldn't laugh anymore.

More and more people around me are using smart phones, and Alipay is becoming more and more popular in front of me.

Every time I hear people say Alipay, I always feel puzzled, but I know that it is not calling me.

Especially during the Spring Festival, Alipay has an activity of "gathering five blessings" to grab red envelopes.

My uncle heard his family mention Alipay every day during the Spring Festival, and said from time to time, "Alipay has sent red envelopes again!"

Every time I say these words to my younger generation, I feel quite uncomfortable.

After all, casually mentioning a person's name is not very comfortable for individuals.

But the master cannot scold the younger generation just because of this matter, and the younger generation has done nothing wrong.

So after the family members' discussion, they decided to call Alipay software Alipay.

This way, it can be distinguished and there will be no embarrassing situations for the master.

But more and more people in the village began to use Alipay, and gradually my uncle became the focus of the village.

Someone even joked with him, "Did you sweep Alipay today?"

The master knew that they were all joking, so he endured it silently on his own.

After a long time, the master gradually reduced the number of times he went out, and inevitably had bad thoughts in his heart.

How could I end up living a life of hiding and hiding when I was born with this name?

Not to mention being a real person, why should one feel uncomfortable with a virtual software?

But something happened later, which changed the master's thinking.

And let him formally sue Jack Ma and claim one million yuan.

This was because my uncle was going to install broadband internet access in the store. When the technician saw that my uncle called Alipay, he borrowed my ID card. After P put on the mosaic, he sent it to the internet.

In an instant, everyone on the internet paid attention to me.

My uncle became a big online celebrity overnight, and many people came to my shop to verify whether my uncle was really called Alipay.

This immediately disrupted my normal life.

What's even more outrageous is that the media also approached the big guy and said that letting him sign up as a host would earn much more money than opening his own small shop.

But I am just an ordinary person. In my opinion, making money depends on my honest and diligent hands.

Instead of earning wealth by matching one's name with popular software.

He heard that because his name was decades earlier than Alipay, he could sue Ma Yun for infringement.

I originally thought that through this way, I could change the name of Alipay software and save myself from suffering.

But after discussing with his family, they asked him to add a condition of compensation of one million yuan.

After the announcement of Mr. Zhi's lawsuit, various media outlets waited at the door every day to interview him.

There are also some people who argue fiercely on the Internet, saying that Grandpa is hyping the harvest traffic by the popularity of "Alipay" software.

At first, I didn't want to appear on the program, but I couldn't bear to play hard and hard. In the end, I participated in Hunan TV's "Day Up".

The court was also very helpless after receiving the uncle's appeal.

Although Alipay registered its trademark only in 2004, Grandpa did not register it in advance, and the name alone does not constitute infringement in law.

After appearing on the program, there were more people who sought cooperation with an uncle than before.

The master rejected them one by one, but still left a partner behind. This object is Alipay software.

In 2018, the official microblog of Alipay officially responded, inviting me to build a "Alipay store" together.

Fee Alipay is officially all inclusive, which is regarded as a gift for meeting two Alipay. The master also happily agreed.

What kind of life does Mr. Zhi live today?

Now Mr. Zhi has reached a deep cooperation with Alipay and opened a small shop called "Alipay Store".

Although the store is small, it has all kinds of internal organs, from Household goods to snacks in the department store.

In 2021, some netizens went to visit the store, and the happy smile of the store owner made netizens feel very friendly.

According to Uncle Zhi, the business of "Alipay Store" is very good after cooperation, and even has developed into a chain store.

The two chain stores are respectively managed by the daughter and son-in-law of the branch master, and they operate themselves in the main store.

epilogue

In fact, our country is not only named after Mr. Zhi. There are also names like "Gao Fu Shuai" and "Bai Fu Mei". These names are really eye-catching. But what we need to understand is that names are only tools used to address and distinguish between people. We cannot joke about a person's name at will, let alone bring inconvenience to their life because of their name. At the same time, we also need to have a broad pattern when facing things. For example, Alipay's official processing is very good. It not only takes care of the needs of both sides, but also brings huge traffic to itself.
