US-China Tech Rivalry Plays Out In Scrutiny of Popular Chinese video ap TikTok
Look for the Washington, DC investigation of the popular Chinese video app
TikTok to lead to a bigger crackdown on China's growing influence and power in the tech economy. As Chinese tech startups have increasingly gone global like TikTok and its parent company
ByteDance have, this scrutiny is bound to become more widespread and impact other China entities in the U.S. and cross-border dealmaking.
Plus, a look at which VCs are caught up in this latest crackdown by DC on China tech over censorship and security factors.

TikTok,"The strategy behind TikTok's global rise" in
From Copy to China and Now,
Copy From China
One of the bigger misconceptions about China's tech market is that China is all about copying - and stealing ideas.
But if that was ever the case, it certainly isn't now. China entrepreneurs have proven that they can innovate. In fact, they've become so good at it that the West is now copying their ideas. Here are a few recent examples in this Forbes post:
Alibaba Cloud acquired Qiming Venture portfolio company IDsManager. The deal marks the second acquisition of a Qiming investee by the leading cloud service provider within four weeks. The earlier deal was with security solution provider Chaitin. Qiming was the largest institutional shareholder of Chaitin before the acquisition.
Hiring platform Fountain raises $23 million in Series B funding led by DCM Ventures.
Casstime, a China-based automotive aftermarket search engine and procurement platform, raises $80 million Series C led by Sequoia Capital China and Source Code Capital.
FUNDS
Ince Capital Partners, a venture capital firm co-founded by Qiming Venture Partners' former managing partner JP Gan, has closed a debut fund of more than $350 million.
Former
Keytone Ventures founding partner
Stella Xi Jin has launched her own fund,
G Vision Capital, focused on semiconductors, AI, IoT and mobility.

IPOs
Chinese real estate marketplace Fangdd Network completes downsized IPO on Nasdaq.
Chinese drone air taxi maker EHang filed for $100 million iPO on Nasdaq. EHang investors include GGV Capital and ZhenFund.
New media content platform 36Kr in China has filed for an IPO in New York. Investors include Didi and Xiaomi.
VIEWPOINT
Taiwan must be more business-friendly to become Asia's Silicon Valley. US-China trade war is already driving tech giants like Foxconn back to the island.
