TikTok美国听证会关键一夜：周受资如何应对生死考验？
北京时间3月24日凌晨，全球月活10亿的TikTok在美国国会经历了一场决定命运的听证会。这是TikTok CEO周受资首次出席美国国会听证会，也是字节跳动首次委派高管直面美国监管压力。
On March 24 Beijing time, TikTok with 1 billion monthly active users faced a fate-determining hearing in the US Congress. This marked TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew's first appearance before US lawmakers, and ByteDance's first time sending an executive to directly address regulatory pressures.
听证会聚焦三大核心议题：用户数据安全、未成年人保护以及TikTok与中国政府的关系。周受资在5小时的质询中反复强调："TikTok从未也不会与中国政府分享美国用户数据。"
The hearing focused on three key issues: user data security, minor protection, and TikTok's relationship with the Chinese government. During the 5-hour grilling, Chew repeatedly stressed: "TikTok has never shared, nor would share, US user data with the Chinese government."

TikTok在美国拥有：
- 1.5亿用户（接近美国人口半数）
- 500万企业用户（大部分为中小企业）
- 2022年广告收入预计超110亿美元
TikTok in the US has:
- 150 million users (nearly half the US population)

专家观点：数据安全与股权分离是关键
Expert View: Separating Data Security from Ownership
浙江大学研究员盘和林认为："股权变更不能解决所谓安全风险。最佳方案是建立透明的数据保护机制，而非强制出售。"
Researcher Pan Helin from Zhejiang University stated: "Ownership change doesn't address alleged security risks. The best solution is transparent data protection, not forced divestment."
这场听证会虽未立即产生决议，但为全球科技企业敲响警钟：在数字时代，地缘政治已成为科技公司必须面对的常态挑战。
While the hearing didn't produce immediate results, it served as a wake-up call: In the digital age, geopolitics has become a constant challenge tech companies must face.
