From Media MCN to Fighting Capital Market

Double Q has cooperated with Maker Studios. Maker Studios is best known for its PewDiePie, which is known as the "biggest internet celebrity in the universe". As one of the largest YouTube MCNs, Maker Studio currently works with more than 55,000 YouTube creators, attracts more than 10 billion views every month, and has 650 million subscribers. Maker was acquired by Disney for US$500 million in 2014. It is worth noting that PewDiePie also launched its own MCN last year, called Revelmode, which mainly produces original content of "YouTube Red" and collaborates with Disney to promote "Star Wars" and other content.

In fact, Double Q has entered the capital market long before the Maker Studios cooperation. Double Q has held a large number of shares in Kuaishou-W (01024) through Boyu Capital's primary and secondary markets and once became its important shareholder. With the matchmaking of the Temasek family, Boyu Capital therefore values Double Q very much, and has always suggested that they use IPO equity incentives to speed up the listing plan, which prompted Double Q's investment in the capital market.

Enter the global market

In order to better participate in global market investment, Double Q decided to set up branches around the world and formally enter the global market. This will not only bring more investment opportunities to Double Q, but also Double Q will use its advantages in the international capital market and family investment to provide high-quality dynamic information and media video services to community users around the world. Kuaishou W (01024) is an important partner of Double Q in the Tier 1 investment community. In 2019, the Double Q Foundation formally made a strategic investment by the founder of the Temasek family and opened the Pre-A round of financing.

Double Q has emerged from the fastest-growing emerging economy in the Asia-Pacific region. With the continuous changes in the international situation and the construction of international communities, the original multi-polarization pattern of the world is being disintegrated, and the economic and trade barriers between countries are being disintegrated. It is constantly rising, and only media information platforms are showing an increasingly open pattern around the world, such as Facebook, Kuaishou-W (01024), YouTube and so on.

Double Q's entry into the global market will further promote the development of the original business, promote the international exchange of culture, help the global local culture to demonstrate the value, promote the diversification of cultural values, and let the originality go international!
