Episode 262: Douyin in China with Matthew Brennan by analyseasia published on 2018-08-25T09:43:55Z Matthew Brennan from China Channel and co-host of China Tech Talk joined us to discuss the mobile app Douyin aka Tik Tok (for the rest of the world) by Bytedance and why they are poised to be one of the new leading social media platform not just for China but for the rest of the world. We discussed the mechanics in how Douyin work for content creators and consumers and the monetisation model for the app, and how Douyin are now navigating the regulatory environment in China with their user generated content. Last but not least, we also discussed their ongoing feud with Tencent. Genre Business Comment by whitewarlord Douyin is really leading the short video space and their achievements outside China have not been articulated by the Western media. Kudos to Matthew in bringing that out. 2018-08-25T10:09:59Z Comment by wangwu Interesting discussion by Matthew Brennan on Douyin and look forward to see him at the Chat conference in 2018. 2018-08-25T10:06:37Z Comment by prodigal Great introduction to Douyin in China and seriously, they are mounting to be a serious competitor to Tencent. 2018-08-25T10:06:05Z
