TikTok C.E.O. Shou Chew on China, the Algorithm and More

please welcome Andrew Ross Sorkin and,his guest the CEO of tick tock show chew,shochu is here thank you so much thank,you for coming all the way here uh to,spend some time with us this afternoon,as we try to better understand Tick Tock,amid all of the headlines as you know so,well,um that include National Security issues,which we talked about here this morning,with the treasury secretary as well as,the world of creators and and what Tick,Tock is going to be and what you want it,to be,I want to start if we could uh just with,a little bit of your own personal,background because more than a decade,ago you were an intern at Facebook,interestingly enough and you were a,student at Harvard Business School,and I just wonder if you ever imagined,that you were going to end up running,they are now biggest competitor,well the short answer is no absolutely,not,um so I'm show I'm from Singapore I'm,very jet-lagged because I flew from,Singapore it is 20 hours away,um I'm a father of two,I'm 40 years old,and about 10 years ago I um was in China,and I met with two young entrepreneurs,two young engineers and,they were starting a company they,recognized a an opportunity to build a,good product that people wanted,started building a product I had a,chance to invest in them and became,friends and slowly you know like any,good startup Story the product grew,bigger and bigger and you know today,it's become the size of a tick tock and,whatever we have today so that's been a,journey it's been unbelievable I,couldn't have imagined 10 years ago that,it would be of this scale today,let's go straight if we could sure to,sort of the large headline that I think,it is perhaps the cloud that's over,to understand how you think about it uh,because there has not a lot of,bipartisan support for for most things,uh here in the US as you know but there,seems to be uh some bipartisan agreement,around tick tock and what is perceived,as the danger of it and this idea that,it is ultimately controlled by the,Chinese and therefore the Chinese,government,what what is that what when you hear,that headline what do you think,I think first of all that we take all,these concerns very seriously we have,been studying them and for the last,couple of years we've been working with,cypheus and uh oh with our Engineers to,try and solve what we think is a very,solvable solvable problem,the problem that we have,um you know can really requires third,party verification and it requires,transparency,and the solution that we have built you,must have read about this is called,project Texas that's the project name,internally,and the idea is that we will take the,data that you have in Virginia and in,Singapore where Tick Tock user data is,stored today,move it into a third-party Cloud,infrastructure and in this case we have,chosen Oracle to be our partner because,they have strong capabilities and,security,they are providing software assurances,as well to the code that's inside and we,have rigorous data access protocols such,that only a team made up of U.S,residents can have access to that to,that U.S data,so again it's a solvable problem now we,have built what I think is an,unprecedented solution to try and solve,this problem it's extremely expensive to,build it's incredibly challenging to do,it but that's a commitment to when,addressing some of these questions let,me ask you this so this this is FBI uh,leader Chris because Chris Ray to the,house Homeland Security committee he,said he's quote extremely concerned that,under Chinese law Chinese companies are,required to do whatever the Chinese,government wants them to do in terms of,sharing information or serving as a tool,of the Chinese government,what happens in the reality behind the,scenes in terms of how this actually,works or happens,so the FBI director through his team,through cyphius is has,um access to the discussions and and the,plans that we are building to solve and,address this problem and I'm very,confident that,this will address the concerns that he,has raised,now for us you know no U.S no foreign,government has asked us for U.S user,Data before really to happen and if they,did we would say no,we have a transparency report that we,publish every quarter like most other,consumer internet companies and in the,report will spell out the details of the,various data requests that various,governments around the world have asked,of the citizens of their country and we,want to make it very transparent so you,can keep your eye on that report to see,you know the the kind of requests that,we are disclosing,one of the things though that people,wonder about is the algorithm,the famous algorithm I want to get into,how how well that algorithm works but,the idea that you can separate the,algorithm,and the technology completely and,utterly in the United States versus,having to be somehow connected to China,the algorithm is separate today,the code is also separate at this point,in time,it's machine learning so the algorithm,is traine

Signal Archives: Vanessa Pappas, COO of TikTok and Nick Tran, head of global marketing for TikTok.

next up are two leaders from the,breakout technology and social media,company of the past year certainly here,in the united states,tick tock,vanessa papas is the chief operating,officer of tick tock overseeing the,strategic business direction and growth,of tick tocks global operations and that,has been some kind of growth in the past,12 months including content marketing,user growth and product and nick tran is,the head of global marketing for tick,tock and his role,as tick tock's first head of global,marketing he's responsible for all,aspects of tick tock's global marketing,efforts so let's start with you nick,um,congratulations on the success of tick,tock,and well i'm at this camera,thank you for that there's nothing like,being in a studio and like everyone's,wildly saying talk to this camera patel,all right here i am this is not like,being in front of a stage,of audience full of people,nick how are you welcome to signal good,thank you thank you for inviting us this,is going to be fun yeah well nick tick,tock's had quite a year um,it's been the number one app for months,and months and months uh here in the,united states even as was breaking those,app store records the president of the,united states last year attempted to,force a sale,which i think probably made everyone,downloaded it all the more to be honest,probably the best marketing you could,have had,well maybe not marketing you would have,asked for nick but we'll get into that,um,what was it like to lead a company,during that time nick and vanessa and,and you know uh,do things feel a little bit more normal,now,that's a great question john i'm happy,to jump in there you know i'm glad you,brought it up because i'm i'm sure it is,a topic of curiosity for many people out,there you know in short absolutely not,you know we're we're seeing the real,concern uh for uh brands you know first,and foremost our commitment has always,been to our users and as an extension of,that the brands who operate on our,platform so you know it it has been as,you said an unprecedented year and we've,certainly been,seeing that challenge but what has been,really inspiring throughout this has,been an opportunity for us to,demonstrate our transparency in terms of,how we operate so you know in this past,year and hopefully many of you already,know this that we opened our own,transparency and accountability centers,to really engage with experts and,lawmakers,to see firsthand how we build a safe and,secure platform,for our community so we're really,pushing the boundaries around what we,think about,transparency and leading the way for our,industry and it's been really gratifying,to see other peer companies actually,follow suit in opening up their own,transparency and accountability centers,but you know we've been clear from the,get-go uh that you know tick-tock uh,does not operate in china uh we have no,ties to the chinese government and as,far as where we stand in,in regard to the new order you know,we're committed to working with the us,government to address any remaining,questions that they have so you know,we're very much thankful uh for all of,our partnerships uh that we've seen in,really cementing our place in the,advertising industry and you know from,my vantage point it's been you know,certainly a fundamental shift in a,renewed confidence that we've seen since,the beginning of this year where brands,are really committed to tick tock and,that has cemented us here in the,industry and uh the landscape for being,a true contender um certainly because of,the scale that we've been able to,accomplish but through these,partnerships that provide us,as and brands is another option,for advertisers today which is really,great,now you're referring to the byte,administration has taken a different,approach from its predecessor um they,have not singled your company out,however they have included your company,in a category of companies that they've,called uh potential national security,risks posed by software applications,connected to foreign governments and you,mentioned uh the relationship with china,is there any more that you might say to,assuage the concerns of those who might,be concerned that,it's possible that you could say that,but it's still possible the chinese,government which has shown a lot of,interest in internet companies recently,particularly those that are based in,china,might be able to to to reach in and grab,their data without even you knowing that,no and you know i i think you know,certainly,uh these are the right questions that,people should be asking and these are,the reasons why we've set up our,transparency and accountability centers,and we've also worked with a number of,cyber security experts,and we've proven time and again that,this is not a risk we have,very strict data access controls we do,our own personal audits we work with,third companies and again we provide,that level of visibility,through our transparency and,accountabilities for exactly this reason,so being

TikTok Copycat: Make $55K Per Month (Without Lifting A Finger!)

TikTok Copycat: Make $55K Per Month (Without Lifting A Finger!)

step number one copy this link step,number two come over to this website,paste it over here and click on generate,step number three you can get paid money,online for this incredibly viral Niche,right now you don't need a camera for,this we're not going to be creating any,of our own content in fact we don't even,need any social media following,whatsoever on Tick Tock Instagram,YouTube Facebook I'm gonna teach you how,to do this without creating any single,content of your own,thank you,all you need is the ability to copy this,link over here whether it's on your,mobile phone or your PC and then come,over to this website where we're going,to paste this exact same link and click,on generate both these platforms are,completely free and anybody can do this,and make multiple streams of income,online in fact every second of this,video is bringing you closer to ten,thousand dollars a month utilizing Tick,Tock without even creating your own,content I suggest pay close attention to,this video and watch every single step,that I'm going to be showing you because,I'm going to lay out this entire,tutorial in the most simplest,step-by-step tutorial for you guys so,that you can easily understand this by,the end of this video and get rolling,and do this yourself you'll see this,person over here called worldlock is,approximately making anywhere between,five hundred and three thousand dollars,a day through their Tick Tock content,that they're not even recording their,own as you can see over here most of,these videos are simple views natural,videos from stock video websites that,they haven't even recorded their self,and all they're doing is is putting,their simple text over these videos,making their own simple little,motivational videos posting that on Tick,Tock and getting hundreds of thousands,even millions of views which they are,using to go and which they are using to,generate Tick Tock ad Revenue affiliate,commissions and to grow their YouTube,channels which also holds a lot more,YouTube ad Revenue so on top of tick,tock being the backbone of the entire,business it opens up various different,streams of income which is exactly what,I'm going to be showing you today and,this is really easy also because it,doesn't take a lot of time to put a tick,tock like this together maybe takes 5-10,minutes that's all it requires out of,your day and then you can continue with,whatever you're doing whether you work,on idle five still a student so this is,a great side hustle and become a main,income stream as well that hardly takes,up any time of your day here's another,good example of another page just taking,stock videos and creative comments,videos on YouTube and adding their own,motivational quotes over different,speeches that they've found off YouTube,You'll see over here if I click on the,link in the bio it will take me up to um,let's just click on open this link,anyway it will take me to some kind of,affiliate link over here so here you can,see uh they've got their Instagram,they're obviously promoting different,music albums so they're obviously some,kind of artists they're using music to,make money off of their Tick Tock I see,also over here they've got different,affiliate links to games such as,wallpaper engine bus Road Runner uh one,of the games on the Play store and the,contact button over here so they're,making various streams of income through,music and affiliate links in the link of,their bio on their Tick Tock page that,again is getting hundreds of thousands,even one or two videos over a million,views and I can actually show you one or,two smaller pages also doing this such,as this page over here called the,inspirational daily with only 33 000,followers and they are pretty much,getting way more views than the amount,of followers they have their third,latest video had over 400 000 views,seventy thousand views yes only one or,two get five thousand or six thousand,but not every single video is going to,take off but as you can see if you,remain consistent at this you will get,to a point where the algorithm is going,to push you and every single video is,going to be getting more views than,actual followers you have and the best,part about this you don't only have to,do this on Tick Tock you can replicate,this on Instagram Facebook reels which I,really recommend YouTube shorts to get,monetized on YouTube and all they do is,is copy and paste and post the same,video that you made on all these,platforms and how you open up to four,different platforms helping you go viral,so this is another great example of a,smaller page doing this and more or less,what you can expect in the beginning if,I click on one of these videos take a,look at this let's just have a look at,their latest video as you can see this,is a simple stock video of a snowy,mountain and all the quote they've got,is here is there are people in this,world,uh who faces lights up when they see you,and that's not because of what you can,do or what you can provide or how they,can

Why Did TikTok CEO Kevin Mayer Resign?

Why Did TikTok CEO Kevin Mayer Resign?

i smell some hot air on this one why do,you cut out,your newly appointed american,ceo of tick tock when you're trying to,get a deal done,with american tech companies that this,guy,knows i think there's something else,going on here kevin is not in the circle,kevin mayer being involved in the room,with the chinese government officials,and the ceo of bike dance,that does not fly this morning the news,that kevin mayer,ceo of tick tock ceo at bite dance,former disney executive who was passed,upon to become the ceo of disney,left disney a few months ago and became,ceo of tick tock,back in july we uh,we spoke about how this seemed like a,peculiar move,for for kevin here's that,kevin mayer the,former executive from disney now ceo at,tick tock boy this guy is having a rough,couple months here,um very curious why kevin took this job,right i mean,it was very clear he was looking for,something else after he was passed on,for the role of ceo of disney,everything right ceo of all of disney,and he took the role of ceo of tick tock,ceo of bite dance the holding company of,tick-tock i guarantee kevin's getting,paid a boatload of money,we don't know his comp package i guess,bite dance goes public or tick tock goes,public kevin's,probably making like at least three 400,million dollars,i mean that's a nice payday if all of,this goes well,right kevin has a lot of stuff to clean,up and,you know i think a zoom and a tick and a,tick tock slash bite dance,these companies that are on the fringe,here where,you know tick tock and kevin are saying,hey we are,putting up chinese walls to separate,ourselves from bite dance to not allow,data to go into china,zoom is saying something similar i think,they're going to have to really look at,taking drastic measures,to separate themselves from,china if if they don't want to fall,you know on basically the wrong side of,this and i and i don't think this is a,single occurrence of what we just saw,with the india ban on these 59 chinese,apps i think this is a,chain of events series of things to come,this is a tough job,i mean with with the level of,like bot um activity,on tick tock that's clearly a,coordinated effort by the chinese,government,to change the perception of the chinese,government abroad through tick tock,and other social media platforms he's,got a lot of stuff to clean up and,that's not a fun job right now and it's,um i don't know if he really knew what,he was getting himself into i don't,really know if he knew the extent,that this uh co-mingling and the extent,of these issues are,and i don't know if he's too happy about,the position that he's in right now,clearly he had a pretty tough time he is,no longer there,let me show you one other clip from cnbc,which is them talking about their source,this magical source i wonder who the,source is could it be someone in kevin's,office that wanted to get his kind of,side of the story out there,maybe so this source uh has given,cnbc some insights on on the real reason,between why,or for why he wanted to leave the,departure of kevin mayer from tick tock,and now some breaking news on that from,our julia borstein good morning julia,good morning to carl yes i've been,talking to sources and one,source close to the situation tells me,that one reason,that kevin mayer announced he is,stepping down now is that he was,excluded from the negotiations with,microsoft and oracle the negotiations,with microsoft i'm told,were being led by by dance ceo zhang yi,ming,where all the oracle conversations were,being led by general atlantic ceo bill,ford,with
