Abstract generation in progress

Several groups of people are currently joining the TikTok bidding war. Trump recently stated that he hopes Microsoft will also enter the fray to buy TikTok. While a Microsoft spokesperson has not commented, a large number of American TikTok users are flocking to another Chinese social media platform, 'Xiaohongshu,' sparking much discussion. The phenomenon of Americans embracing Chinese social media for watching videos and posting content has attracted attention, especially given the tense relationship between the two countries. From AI chip restrictions and trade wars to national information security, there is a palpable sense of imminent conflict. However, on social media, Chinese and American citizens have a fascinating interaction. A BBC analysis report points out that the key lies in the cultural collision of 'dark humor,' where people from both countries feel they can monitor and communicate with each other, transcending the atmosphere of political unrest. In the metaverse of social media, they use self-created memes to communicate.

The inexplicably popular industrial chemical factories in China

Many people think that the most popular content on TikTok is catchy music and mindless videos. However, surprisingly, the most popular video last year was from a Chinese industrial food additive company called 'Donghua Jinlong'. The promotional video made by this manufacturer became a TikTok meme created by American creators and gained great popularity. Donghua Jinlong produces food industrial additive Glycine (, which is commonly known as glycine or aminoacetic acid ) in Chinese. It is a widely used food additive for organic synthesis, with a sweet taste and the ability to prevent spoilage.
