A public spat between two warring and wildly popular Chinese apps bus had the feel of a teenage dance-off “Sorry，Douyin Fans”，ran at article from the short video app on its WeChat account，in which it accused the mobile-messaging service of disabling links to Douyin’s most popular videos “All bail Douyin the drains queen．”retorted Tencent．WeChat’s parent，which said it had acted because the content was “inappropriate”．
On June 1st Tencent sued Douyin’s parent company．Bytedance，for 1 yuan(1 5 cents)and demanded it apologise for its accusations on its own platforms(and presumably without the snark)．Tencent also alleged unfair competition．Within hours Douyin countersued for 90m yuan．
Rarely has an upstart so piqued Tencent．At first blush WeChat and Douyin(which translates as ‘‘trill” 1 appear to inhabit distinct worlds．The former is a super-app in which more than Ibn users not only chat but also order food give to charity and pay utility bills．Douyin is an eclectic feed of looped 15-second videos， a cross between Snap chat，Vine(now defunct) and Musically， which Bytedance bought in November．
Different though the services are，Bytedance’s use of artificial intelligence to create tailored of-ferings for each viewer on Douyin and on Tou tiao，a newsfeed–is winning attention．According to Quest Mobile，a data vendor，in early 2017 users began to spend more time on Tou tiao，Douyin and two other Bytedance video apps，Xigua and Huoshan，than they did on Tencent’s news and video of-ferings．

WeChat has hardly lost its oomph．A state agency recently reported that WeChat made up 34％of China，s total mobile-data traffic in 2017．To advertise，Douyin still relies on users sharing its videos on WeChat\’s public feeds(hence its ire over the blocked videos)．Still，the share of time spent by Chinese mobile users on messaging slipped from 37％to 32％in the year to March，says Quest Mobile．while that spent on watching short-form video has risen from 1．5％to over 7％．
In May，an eassy put out on WeChat by a former tech journalist lit up social media．In “Tencent Doesn\’t Have a Dream”．he argued that the firm had become chiefly an investment firm buying up other startups and had lost its innovative edge．One bit of evidence was that by the time Tencent had registered Douyin’s rise，its window for a counter-attack had all but closed．
