Topic 1-Apple Pay's one year in China-Will it ever match Alipay or Wechat Wallet’s popularity?

 

This month (Feb.18th) marks the first anniversary of Apply Pay’s entry into the Chinese market. Despite being the most popular third-party payment service in the US, Apply Pay is currently under-performing its expectations in China. Homegrown giants such as WeChat wallet and Alipay, are not leaving much breathing room for Apple Pay.

 

How fierce is the competition from Alipay and Wechat Wallet (TenPay)? What problems are holding back Apple Pay’s development in China?

 

What are the advantages and disadvantages of NFC-based Apple Pay and QR code scanning based Alipay and Wechat Wallet?

 

Topic 2-Software helps plagiarize¹ online novels

 

Chinese internet novels have been plagued with the problem of plagiarism². A media report has revealed that some authors on the Internet are using writing software to produce Web fiction and stories, a 1,000 Chinese-word depiction³ can be churned out in 10 minutes by the programs.

 

So now there’s a software that can help intellectual property thieves commit the crime? How can we deal with plagiarism?
