ByteDance asks help from Reliance to save TikTok in India

0

Yes, the parent company of TikTok wants help from India’s wealthy Reliance Industries Limited for financially backing TikTok’s recently banned business in India. As TechCrunch reports, both of these companies are in early discussion and ByteDance doesn’t want to lose its biggest market by users.

TikTok has been banned in India for quite some time now mainly because of the backslash between India and China due to the border tensions. Also, there’s have security concerns regarding the data of Indians as well that has led the Indian govt. ban a lot of Chinese apps in India, including TikTok, which cannot even be accessed using VPN in India.

Reliance Industries Limited becomes debt-free with Jio's overwhelming investments & Rights Issue

TechCrunch‘s sources have said that Reliance and ByteDance began their conversations from late last July and have yet to reach a deal between the two. The short video streaming app is a massive one in India as it has around 200 million users there, before the ban, and it’s being evaluated at more than $3 billion.

ByteDance does have a chance to prove itself before the Indian govt. and prove itself wrong of all its breaches. The company has almost 2,000 employees in the country. So, their fate hangs obviously as because if ByteDance cannot prove themselves guilty then they have to sell their operations in India and so they seek help from RIL.

Reliance has totally changed its fate in India with its investments and services via Jio Platforms and is trying to enter in every business it possibly could. Howsoever the company’s apps may be, they lack that eccentricity and uniqueness which doesn’t make any app of their huge chain a huge success, the apps under Jio’s banner look more of a business-centric rather than being exciting.

Jio is nearing the 400 million subscriber mark and potentially looking forward to gaining more users next year with 5G rollout in the country. In the meantime, if they somehow, get TikTok back running or even buys its operations that would make a serious impact among users because Indian people have trust in Jio Platforms.

ByteDance has even assured all of its 2000 employees that it plans to resolve issues with the Indian government and does not intend to layoff employees in the country. In the US, the app is facing a lot of trouble, after being banned in India the Trump govt. does not want to see the Chinese app up and running while TikTok wants to sue back the govt. and also is in talks with Microsoft for a potential takeover.

Obviously, a deal with the world’s fourth-richest man backed Reliance Industries will help its stay in the country and not to forget the fact that Mukesh Ambani and India’s PM Narendra Modi do share a good relationship with each other. Potentially this is an interesting development and we are yet to see the fate of the TikTok in India in the coming days.

What do you think about TikTok’s ban and its willingness to recover in India? Tell us in the comments down below… 😉

As I mentioned, this feature is returning again. Back in 2017, Google withdrew Maps support for Apple Watch but promised to bring it back again. So, Google is keeping its promise now. The global rollout of this feature is scheduled in the coming weeks.

After the rollout, the Apple Watch users can get all the directions along with the estimated arrival time on their wrists. This will happen for the saved destinations. In other cases, the user can resume the navigation where s/he ends on the phone.

Apple’s CarPlay Dashboard

ZTE is set to become the first brand to introduce an under-display camera in its devices to the market. Previously about a year ago we have seen Oppo had shown a smartphone with an under-display camera, but somehow, the phone has not been made official. It might be a matter of time that under-display smartphones start hitting the market.

Earlier today, Ni Fei, president of ZTE mobile devices confirmed via Weibo their intention of launching the first under-display Smartphone. While many brands have been working on such technology, it appears ZTE might beat them to it.

The under-display feature intends to replace the notch or punch hole camera to provide uninterrupted viewing. There have been concerns about achieving decent image quality. However, rumor has it that ZTE will make use of Visionox, a Chinese display manufacturer that claims it has perfected the under-display camera feature.

While the product itself has not been named, it is being speculated that the upcoming ZTE A20 5G model will be sporting this innovative feature. The launch date is yet to be announced.
