Whoever wants to buy Tech Tok must be careful for the previous examples
The legal efforts by the risks made by the Chinese company “Byte dance” to avoid the sale or closure of the “Tek Tok” application, to persuade the court’s judges that the disappearance of the social network would crush the rights of freedom of expression to millions of Americans. The obstacle to this argument is that just any agreement to sell the application to the new owners will completely undermine the case. Judges may say that the sale of the application and the change of the real estate structure will not lose the freedom of expression. However, reliable reports have shown that ‘byte -dance’ somehow considered selling the application – that any business is studying its options, as it is the lack of reflection on collecting a financial benefit from the conclusion of ‘Tik Talk’ with a madness. However, potential buyers want to think for a long time and fill out this step. History has shown since the rise of the Internet that the purchase of a social network is not rarely new in the interests of the new owners. The most famous, laughing model, is the acquisition of “News Corp” on “My Space”, in 2005, for $ 580 million in cash. The site had 16 million active users daily, which was a large number before Facebook. My space was seen as a center of culture, especially music. Robert Murdoch bought a website that one of Morgan Stanley analysts expected it to be important for the digital pursuit of “News Corp”, just like the importance of the Simpson Family series for “Fox”.

He wrote: “Mr. Marduk became like a father attending a party for teenagers and working hard to adapt to them.” “The worst agreement in the era of Dot Com” by 2008 exceeded Facebook ‘My Space’ in the world. Attempts to update its design have led to reverse results, spread quickly random mail and are difficult to control. The performance of the website continues, and it was finally sold for $ 35 million during June 2011 -a $ 545 million loss. Murdoch later said that the agreement was a ‘fatal mistake’ .. what a mockery. There is also the “Tumblr” model. The network characterized by the publication of short remarks is a center between a blog and a tweet to ‘yahoo’ for $ 1.1 billion in 2013. Tumblr users tried to block the agreement and launched a petition by 170,000 people. Of course, executives were better aware of this, but after three years they removed $ 712 million. Tumbller, full of ads, did not achieve his goals. The site was later sold to the automatic web manufacturer for $ 3 million.

The beloved “Bebo” in the UK, which is very popular elsewhere, was sold to AOL (AOL) for $ 850 million in 2008, which placed it in a pioneering position in the field of social media, according to the CEO of “AO” Randy Falco. It was a failed agreement, and the BBC’s technology correspondent described it as “one of the worst transactions that took place in the era of Dotcom.” ‘Bebo’ was sold to a private royal company and was then sold another million dollars to its founders. Livejournal was another victim. Its sale in 2007 to a media group in Russia was finally meant that its servers are transferred to the country, and amend its policies to comply with Russian legislation. As such, it was usually a forum for angry teenagers to express themselves, nowadays, a place for a much smaller Russian society. Is it impossible to buy and operate a ready social network? No – There may be examples that Tik Talk can think it can be simulated. LinkedIn, obtained by Microsoft for about $ 25 billion in 2016, is one of these models that can be simulated. During the last full year after it became an independent company, LinkedIn’s turnover amounted to $ 2.99 billion. Last year it scored $ 15.15 billion. Another example is “Instagram”, which Facebook bought for a billion dollars in 2012, which is now the most important growth motor of “Mita Plasmose”, and makes it suitable for people under the age of 40.

Either way, buyers were strongly suited, each one enjoyed the culture and experience needed for the success of the transformation process, and the basic pillars that led to the success of these networks remained. In “Instagram”, for example, participating founders Kevin Sistrom and Mike Crigger remained unusual for a long time after concluding the agreement. ‘Obstacles that impede the agreement’ are to sell ‘Tik Tuk’ common dividers with more negative failures than successes. The current regulatory environment is unlikely to allow a large US technology company to “buy and work to develop it. (In the event that the case worsens and the ghost of the closure of the application, the authorities may enable the conclusion of an agreement). Successful acquisitions from social media businesses require the preservation of talents and technology. In the case of “Tek Tok”, the two things are not possible. China is likely to prevent the transfer of the famous “Tik Talk” algorithms, and the ambiguity is the fate of the company’s best engineering in the United States in the event of sale. The buyer is at risk of getting more than just a brand. Yes, it is of value, but it remains a shadow for ‘typing talk’ in its current position.
