Inside TikTok's potential U.S. deal and its global tech implications

from Chat Lounge

TikTok has denied reports that it's developing a separate app for the U.S. market. So how can the company resolve its prolonged standoff with Washington? Washington says a deal with Beijing is nearly done. But Beijing isn't exactly on the same page. Is this really just a business move or a high-stakes political gamble? What's the likely endgame? And what could it mean for the future of global tech? Host Tu Yun joins Dr. Zhou Mi, the Deputy Director of the Institute of American and Oceania Study, Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Cooperation; Edward Lehman, Founder and Managing Director of China-based law firm Lehman, Lee & Xu; and Warwick Powell, an Adjunct Professor at Queensland University of Technology in Australia for a close look.
