In the office of Zhang Yiming, the founder of Han Yadong ByteDance, the website of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission, there is a customized globe hanging in the air.
At present, the "rotating globe" is encountering the "American trap".
After threatening to "ban TikTok", President Trump of the United States again issued a naked threat on August 3: TikTok must be sold to the United States before September 15, otherwise it must be closed, and a considerable amount of money must be handed over to the United States Treasury, "because we made this transaction possible".
