TikTok fights back claims it is caving in to US divestment pressure
TikTok 反驳了它屈服于美国撤资压力的说法
TikTok on Friday denied a news report suggesting that the ByteDance-owned platform is laying the technological groundwork for a potential divestment, the latest in a flurry of rebuttals issued by the short video app operator and its Chinese parent as they project a hardline stance against the Biden administration.
TikTok周五否认了一篇新闻报道，该报道称字节跳动旗下的TikTok正在为潜在的撤资奠定技术基础，这是这家短视频应用程序运营商及其中国母公司发表的一系列反驳中的最新一篇，因为他们对拜登政府采取了强硬立场。
In late April, ByteDance rejected a report by US tech news website The Information that the Chinese firm was “exploring scenarios” of selling a majority stake in TikTok’s US operations. Earlier that month, ByteDance denied a report by The Wall Street Journal that its co-founder Zhang Yiming was discussing a sale of TikTok with potential buyers.
4月下旬，字节跳动拒绝了美国科技新闻网站The Information的报道，称这家中国公司正在“探索”出售TikTok美国业务的多数股权。本月早些时候，字节跳动否认了《华尔街日报》的报道，称其联合创始人张一鸣正在与潜在买家讨论出售TikTok。
