Mike Sheppard: 特朗普总统声称已经找到了TikTok的美国业务买家,但没有透露具体买家名称,并表示交易需要得到中国政府的批准。中国政府对TikTok的出售拥有最终决定权,因为TikTok的母公司ByteDance总部位于北京,并且掌握着中国政府认为敏感的技术。即使公司保留对算法的控制权,任何最终出售都需要政府批准。四月份的报道指出,白宫正在促成一项涉及ByteDance、TikTok、美国官员和一些潜在买家的交易,该交易将使算法保留在中国手中。由于华盛顿和北京之间的贸易紧张关系加剧,获得北京的批准变得非常困难。目前的买家财团与四月份报道的类似,包括甲骨文、Andreessen Horowitz和黑石集团,以及ByteDance的一些美国投资者。计划是稀释ByteDance在美国TikTok业务中的股份,使其低于2024年法律规定的阈值,该法律要求剥离中国所有权,并将算法纳入销售范围。如果算法不从中国转移控制权,可能会引起华盛顿的一些反对。总统已经签署了延期协议,但法律只允许总统延期一次,而这已经是第三次延期,情况不明朗。
