Tudou

Tudou was an early Chinese online video platform founded by Wang Wei, notable for Gaorong Ventures' founding partners having championed and led its investment around the time of its launch—one partner recalled Wang showing up to their meeting in slippers, yet the conversation convinced them of his capabilities and Tudou's stronger prospects . The platform was later acquired by YY, per Gaorong's portfolio summaries . Chen Shi, now with FreeS Capital, spent five years in Alibaba management and was deeply involved in business decisions for product lines including Tudou during its later period under Alibaba's cultural entertainment group .
