Ling Hu and Xiaoguang Wu

Abstract—On September 29, 2018, Alipay launched the "Chinese Koi" event on Sina Weibo, which has become one of the most important events of the year in China's Internet community. Since the evolution of Weibo into the mainstream social media, it has become one of the important platforms for companies’ marketing activities. The process of Weibo marketing mainly involves the company's dissemination of information, attracting opinion leaders or users’ comment and sharing in Weibo, and achieving the marketing purpose through the spread of Internet word-of-mouth. This paper is based on the 5T model of word-of-mouth marketing, namely, Talkers, Topics, Tools, Taking Part and Tracking, and analyzes Alipay's “Chinese Koi” Weibo marketing activity.
