TikTok与Temu黑五战略对决：放弃低价战转向高客单价
今年黑五期间，字节跳动旗下的TikTok Shop与拼多多海外版Temu展开了一场精彩的战略博弈。令人意外的是，TikTok选择避开Temu最擅长的低价战场，转而主攻高客单价市场。
During this year's Black Friday, ByteDance's TikTok Shop and Pinduoduo's overseas version Temu engaged in a fascinating strategic game. Surprisingly, TikTok chose to avoid Temu's stronghold of low prices, instead focusing on the premium market.
11月29日黑五正式开始前夕，TikTok全托管推出新政策：参与黑五活动的供应商，供货价不能低于8美元。这一举措让原本主打"跳楼价"的全托管频道商品价格甚至高于亚马逊。
Just before Black Friday on November 29th, TikTok's fully managed channel introduced a new policy: suppliers participating in Black Friday activities must offer products priced no lower than $8. This move made products in the originally "rock-bottom price" channel even more expensive than those on Amazon.
战略转变背后是TikTok雄心勃勃的GMV目标：2025年达到千亿美元。为实现这一目标，TikTok采取了三大激进策略：
Behind this strategic shift lies TikTok's ambitious GMV target: reaching $100 billion by 2025. To achieve this, TikTok adopted three aggressive strategies:
- 推出"充500送500"的广告补贴计划
- 邀请说唱巨星妮琪·米娜等名人直播带货
- 要求商家每日产出500-1000条短视频内容
- Launching a "spend $500 get $500" ad subsidy program
- Inviting celebrities like rapper Nicki Minaj for live streaming
- Requiring merchants to produce 500-1000 short videos daily
与此同时，Temu依然坚持其低价策略，但面临增长放缓的挑战。数据显示，与1月份相比，8月在Temu上购物的消费者减少了约25%。
Meanwhile, Temu persisted with its low-price strategy but faced slowing growth. Data shows that compared to January, the number of consumers shopping on Temu in August decreased by about 25%.
这场黑五大战揭示了跨境电商的三大趋势：
This Black Friday battle reveals three major trends in cross-border e-commerce:
- 价格战转向价值战：平台开始注重商品品质和用户体验
