The reporter found that the video shooters were all minors themselves, and when taking a selfie on their mobile phones, the camera was directly aimed at their own private parts. In a short video, the location coordinates are displayed as Shenzhen and the words "Shenzhen School Uniform" are added. The content is to follow a female student in a school uniform, all the way through the classroom, and finally into the women's restroom. In the "bullet screen function" provided by the video, some people left messages asking "which school uniform is this" and others asked the short video publisher to "introduce it".

Valuation of 120 billion

A number of well-known institutions are shareholders

I believe that many young people are using the Little Red Book. Little Red Book was founded in Shanghai in 2013 by Mao Wenchao and Qu Fang. With the mission of "Inspire Lives Sharing and Discovering the Wonders of the World", users can record life moments, share lifestyles, and form interactions based on interests through short videos, graphics and other forms. As of October 2019, the number of monthly active users of Xiaohongshu has exceeded 100 million, of which 70% of users are post-90s, and continue to grow rapidly.

In the latest publicity, Xiaohongshu borrowed Liu Haoran to shout out the brand copy of "200 million people's life experience is in Xiaohongshu". This means that Xiaohongshu has gathered at least 200 million users.

In the Little Red Book, due to the mutual influence between the sharer and the publisher, most of the bloggers and users are vegetarians, everyone trusts and shares life experience, the Little Red Book has become a well-known consumer experience sharing platform, the "grass economy" is popular, but it has also bred black production such as ghostwriting, so it is criticized for being full of consumerism. Previously, CCTV's "Chaowen Tianxia" criticized Xiaohongshu and other e-commerce platforms for brushing comments, brushing likes and other violations, exposing the black industrial chain behind it.

Therefore, recently, Xiaohongshu litigation micro-media notice, Chengbao, Nanjing mussels and other 4 notification platforms and MCN agencies, Xiaohongshu said that these institutions engaged in the business of "ghostwriting and sending" false planting notes, helping merchants and bloggers to carry out false promotion, causing great harm to the platform content ecology and platform reputation, and seriously damaging the legitimate rights and interests of users.

Xiaohongshu requires the above-mentioned institutions to immediately stop the false promotion and trading of Xiaohongshu and compensate Xiaohongshu for economic losses of 10 million yuan, and the compensation will be used for the platform's false grass planting governance.

It is reported that Xiaohongshu has a total of 6 rounds of financing, the latest round is November 8, 2021, the post-investment valuation of more than 20 billion US dollars (about 126.7 billion yuan), led by Temasek and Tencent, Ali, Tiantu Investment, Yuansheng Capital and other old shareholders to follow.
