SHEIN was founded in 2008 in Nanjing, Jiangsu is aiming squarely at the "Gen Z" social-media generation, using influencers on Instagram and TikTok, and discount codes, to attract younger shoppers in an increasingly crowded fashion market. It offers low-cost styles, uploading hundreds of new designs to its app every week. The price for a dress is around half that of Zara. Truck-hailing platform Full Truck Logistics, known as Manbang in China, filed for an IPO on the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday without disclosing details about the size of the offering. CNBC reported earlier this month that the startup could raise around US$1.5 billion, citing a source with knowledge of the matter. Horizon is currently working with advisers on a share sale that could happen by the end of the year. The company, which counts Intel Capital, Hillhouse Capital, and Jack Ma's Yunfeng Capital as its investors, is also said to be in preliminary discussions with advisors regarding a venue and the timing for the potential IPO.

Deals Bytedance has agreed to raise $3bn in funding from investors including SoftBank at a $75bn valuation that will make it the most valuable independent VC-backed company in the world. Manbang, the trucking services marketplace also known as Full Truck Alliance, is reportedly in advanced discussions with Tencent and SoftBank over a $1bn round that … Continue reading "29 October 2018 – Bytedance Raises $3bn at $75bn Valuation"
Hello and welcome back to Equity, TechCrunch’s venture capital-focused podcast where we unpack the numbers behind the headlines. This week Matthew Lynley and Alex Wilhelm were joined by 500 Startups CEO Christine Tsai for what turned out to be a super packed episode. We kicked off with the latest from Slack: $400 million new dollars at a shiny, new $7 billion valuation, according to TechCrunch. The new capital comes after the firm raised a huge sum last year from SoftBank's Vision Fund. We dug into why the company would raise again, and what competitors it has left after the Atlassian deal. Next up, two earnings reports. Continuing our tradition of keeping tabs on recent tech IPOs, we talked through Snap and Dropbox which reported earnings this week. Both lost ground after doing so. Ironically, they each beat financial expectations. Snap ended up dropping value over a DAU decline, and Dropbox's fall is still a bit undetermined. But by the time this episode ships, perhaps the market will have figured it out. Next up we scrolled through the key reviews of the commercially available Magic Leap headset that is out at last. It's a bit pricey, and a bit not-what-people-expected, but the well-funded startup seems to have avoided a complete miss. Its second-generation device may prove to be more impactful. And finally, big news from China. As has become the norm on Equity, a few big Chinese rounds captivated us. This time it was the Manbang news, and what's going on at Bytedance. All that and we'll be back in a week's time. Stay cool!

On this episode Ant and Tom go on a trail of things that somehow link together. These things include games, films, TV shows and more. Included in this are conversations about the passing of Gene Wilder and all the films that you should have watched, or should now watch including Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles, The Producers, See No Evil, Hear No Evil and Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. A couple of games are coming out by teams that made the originals but are carrying on in the genre such as Formula Fusion creating an updated version of Wipeout and Planet Coaster is being released by the team that worked on the Rollercoaster Tycoon series. Both games will undoubtedly suck time from your life but not quite as much as No Man's Sky which doesn't even seem to have a point... or does it? Ant watched Coming to America for the first time and didn't find it quite as funny as he was led to believe it was, which prompts the age-old conversation about things at the time being remembered as great but a modern audience not getting at all. Is it just an 80s thing, or do kids today find 90s films as dated? North Korean news is back with the secretive state releasing its own version on Netflix, called Manbang. Fancy a Manbang and chill? No, didn't think so. It also seems that an American missionary who reportedly died in 2004 has actually been living in North Korea after being kidnapped to teach Kim Jong Un English. Also, the guys have both watched the whole first series of Strange Things and although they don't want to say it's the best TV show out there like everyone else, they can't find much to criticise about it either. Amazing attention to detail, a solid cast of actors (even the children) and a well researched and subtle script. It feels authentically 80s and that's why we loved it.

String cheese wrappers? Check. Authentic teriyaki? Check. Blend of 11 secret herbs and spices? Check. Enough alcohol to float 1500 Michiganders to Canada? Check. We’re ready for another round of TBTL: The Week That Was. In this episode, Mike, Ann and Meredith talk about, among other things, the extreme hotness of Justin Trudeau, why no one feels sorry for Nick Denton, and how to learn to look at yourself in pictures without dying inside. Plus, we hear all the dirty details from last Friday’s Texas LRB meetup (which I’m referring to as The Debauchery in Dallas, because I can), including steaks, dog behavior and Mike’s manspreading.

Manbang? No it's not anything sexual . . . SOMEHOW!
Andrés 1 y Andrés 2 dedicaron esta versión al hombre que siempre supo que la informática había llegado para quedarse: Manuel Sadosky. Considerado padre de la matemática aplicada y la computación en Argentina, Sadosky posibilitó la llegada de Clementina a nuestro país (a quién dedicamos su propia versión 1.1), entre otros grandes y visionarios logros. El destacado de la fecha fue Manbang, el ¿Netflix? norcoreano que nos inspira poca confianza.
