  • Analysis of Bytedance with a Close Look on Douyin / Tiktok ——————————————————
    —————————————————— Analysis of ByteDance with a close look on Douyin / TikTok —————————————————— Author: Xiaoye SHI Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Didier SORNETTE A thesis submitted to the Department of Management, Technology and Economics (D-MTEC) of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich (ETHZ) in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Management, Technology and Economics June 2019 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor Prof. Dr. Didier Sornette, who has kindly given me countless guidance and advice throughout the Master thesis. I appreciate the opportunity to work on this interesting topic under the Chair of Entrepreneurial Risks and is deeply grateful for all the help received along the process. I also want to express my deepest gratitude to my parents, who have been supportive and encouraging under all circumstances. Without them, I would not be able to become the person I am today. - 2 - Abstract In 2018, ByteDance, a young Internet company with only 6 years of history, broke out on various news headlines as the highest valued unicorn. With the acquisitions of musical.ly and Flipgram, the company’s flagship product Douyin strikes to develop its global presence under the name TikTok. This thesis analyzed Douyin’s historical growth and revenue model. As a main revenue driver, future user growth is predicted and calibrated by extending the methodology proposed in earlier studies by Cauwels and Sornette. We considered three growth scenarios – base, high and extreme, and estimated Douyin as well as ByteDance’s value based on comparable company analysis. ByteDance’s key performance metrics and multiples were compared with four other firms in the similar industry, Facebook, Weibo, Momo and iQIYI.

  • 2017 China's Short Video Industry Report
    2017 China’s Short Video Industry Report Internal Driving Force of Short Video Industry - Advertiser Advertisers Have Larger Budget For Mobile Videos. The Marketing Value of Short Videos Become Prominent The rise of the internet, especially the mobile internet media, has made a tremendous impact on the marketing value of traditional media. The value of mobile short video marketing has drawn great attention. According to the “China‘s Advertising Industry Ecology Investigation Report 2016” released by the Advertiser Research Institute of Communication University of China, the advertisers’ budget for TV advertising has been declining year by year. However, their budget for internet media has been increasing. As to the budget for internet media, the proportion of mobile devices has been rising while that of PCs has been falling. In 2016, the mobile advertising budget exceeded the PC advertising budget. Mobile media became more favored by advertisers. iResearch points out that in the aspect of video ads, the budget for traditional TV video advertising keeps falling and that for mobile videos keep increasing. Due to the lack of long video advertising resources (TV series, variety shows, etc.), the mobile short video, which has high traffic, huge carrying capacity and long-tail effect, will account for a major part of advertisers’ media advertising budget. This short video business model will be further developed and short video will drive the continuous development of the industry. Proportions of Chinese Advertisers’ Budget Proportions of Chinese
