Hezhong Yibao obtained a third-party payment license from the central bank in 2014.īyteDance has been ordered by the outgoing Trump administration to divest TikTok's U.S. Local Chinese media reported on Tuesday that Douyin Pay had been launched.īyteDance founder and Chief Executive Zhang Yiming built up the company's payment capability in China by acquiring Wuhan Hezhong Yibao Technology Co last year. Users of Douyin, which accumulated 600 million daily active users, previously could use Ant Group's Alipay and Tencent Holdings' WeChat Pay, the country's two ubiquitous third-party mobile payment channels, to buy virtual gifts for livestreamers or items from shops on the platform. "The set-up of Douyin Pay is to supplement the existing major payment options, and to ultimately enhance user experience on Douyin," Douyin said in a statement to Reuters on Tuesday. Otherwise, fans won’t want to share them with their friends.BEIJING (Reuters) - Beijing-based ByteDance recently launched its own third-party payment service for Douyin, the Chinese version of its hit short video app TikTok, as it presses to expand into the e-commerce business in China. This of course means that the videos must be entertaining or interesting beyond just being an advert for a product. This helped them recruit new customers at the least cost. Xiaomi also leveraged the social media element by encouraging users to share these videos with the shopping links in it with their friends. Avoiding any further redirection or app-switching creates a smoother user experience. They embedded links into videos that directed people to a product store page directly. On Douyin, Xiaomi made use of their popular video content. The company managed to turn its cold start into a big success in a matter of months. Xiaomi’s success on Douyin was made into a case study which is well-circulated among marketers on how to build brands and make sales on Douyin.

There are many ways to access Mini-Programs on Douyin. WeChat users activate a Douyin mini-program by scanning the codes. Integration of mini-program will boost Douyin’s social e-commerce functions by providing users with better shopping experience and making it become an all-in-one entertainment and shopping platform.Īt present, Douyin has partnerships with Xiaomi, NetEase Koala, JD.com, Suning, and others to launch e-commerce mini-apps on its platform.ĭouyin mini-programs can also be shared externally to WeChat in the form of QR codes. Mini-programs, initially created by Wechat, are lightweight alternatives to apps that run inside existing applications on a user’s mobile phone. This means that by adding mini-programs to their Douyin profiles, online sales can be completed without the need to leave the app and visit the sellers’ online stores elsewhere. QDaily reported that ByteDance now allowed merchants to add mini programs on Douyin to sell goods directly to its users. DOUYIN ACTIVATED E-COMMERCE MINI-PROGRAMS

![]() ![]() And when we tested four Xtreme Comforts pillows in 2019, half of them smelled so bad that we couldn’t get to sleep even after several weeks, the smell didn’t fade (the other half of the pillows were odorless). Over time, several staffers and readers have reported that this pillow has occasionally arrived with a notably strong chemical smell. We’ve been recommending the Xtreme Comforts Shredded Memory Foam Pillow since 2016, and it was a top pick in previous versions of this guide. ![]() Garnet Hill has a 90-day return policy (changed in 2022, from the previous lifetime guarantee) and a one-year warranty against defects. It’s the only down-pillow pick in this guide, and it is Responsible Down Certified (RDS). In our 2022 testing, several back- and side-sleepers (who in testing have typically preferred taller pillows) also liked the firm Garnet Hill. This pillow is easier to shape to your shoulders and neck than other down pillows we’ve tried. If you are partial to it, note that our stomach-sleepers in particular preferred the firm-density Garnet Hill Signature White Down Pillow, with its give and softness, to other down pillows we’ve tried over the past four years (with 11 sleep testers). In our years of testing, we’ve found that down has a very specific appeal. Like our other Sleep Number pick, the PlushComfort Pillow Ultimate, this pillow comes with a 100-day return policy by mail and includes a one-year warranty against defects. That’s because adjusting this pillow is tidier than adjusting our Easy Breather pick (which has loose clumps of foam that can be messy to mold). ![]() We believe the PlushComfort Pillow Ultimate is the best option for side- and back-sleepers who aren’t sure how much loft they really need. (Don’t confuse this pillow with another shredded-foam pillow we tried, the Sleep Number ComfortFit Pillow Classic, which isn’t adjustable.) It’s similar to the Sleep Number PlushComfort Pillow Ultimate, but this one uses a mix of shredded foam and down alternative, instead of just down alternative. And there are three sealed, removable layers inside, so this pillow is easier to customize than any others we tried. The Sleep Number ComfortFit Pillow Ultimate is one of the loftiest shredded-foam pillows we’ve tested. Sleep Number has recently changed its no-return policy to a 100-day return policy by mail, and the company also provides a one-year limited warranty on its pillows. Most of our testers (even some back- and side-sleepers, who generally prefer shredded foam) found a comfortable height and enjoyed the cushioned support of the PlushComfort Pillow Ultimate. But the PlushComfort Pillow Ultimate includes all three options in one pillow: It comes with three sealed, removable layers of fill to help you achieve the best fit for your body shape. Most pillows we’ve tried come in soft, medium, or firm densities. (“Down alternative” is a fluffy fill, usually polyester or rayon, that mimics the feel of down but costs much less.) The Sleep Number PlushComfort Pillow Ultimate is the only customizable down-alternative pillow we’ve ever tested, and it’s ideal for stomach-sleepers who have a hard time finding the right height. This pillow comes with a 30-day return policy and a two-year warranty. The Easy Breather comes in four sizes, including a side-sleeper version with a curved edge for your shoulder (which we haven’t yet tested). This can be a messy process, but it does let you achieve a precise fit. The pouch also has a zipper, so you can still add or remove shredded-foam filling to achieve your ideal loft. The Easy Breather was redesigned in 2021 with a softer, cooler cover, and the shredded foam is now encased in its own washable inner pouch (making it the first fully washable shredded-foam pillow we’ve tested). It’s one of the most comfortable shredded-foam pillows we’ve found, and there isn’t a persistent problem with smelly foam (which we’ve encountered with shredded-foam pillows from other companies). The Nest Bedding Easy Breather Pillow has been a consistent tester favorite for its firm, adjustable support. ![]() The times you do “hear” them be very dense. A prank caller can’t continue if they think you don’t hear them. Hello? Hello?Īnswer the call as if you don’t have a very good signal. To be on the safe side, you should never give your personal information to a company you haven't heard of. There are no "live operator" instructions, so if you see them, ignore them. Prank callers and scammers will know their strategy has been derailed when you don't pick up the phone when they try to call again. You can either wait for them to hang up or hang up yourself in this situation. You can bet it's a scam call or perhaps one of those prank calls that callers make to see if the phone number they're calling is assigned to a real person. Rather than responding right away, you should sit tight and wait a few minutes before saying anything. One of the best things to say on a prank call is to say nothing. There are 5 responses you can take: Remain quiet ![]() You wait for them to say, “Ops, wrong number,” but the conversation goes on. You answer the call and see if it is someone you recognize - it isn’t. Your phone rings, and there is no visible caller ID. So you are at home relaxing after a long day at work. If you aren’t, you won’t get the results you are after. It might be just a distraction for you.įor the best results, you need to figure out what you want and be consistent. After all, most prank calls are harmless. Corporate is not a fan.īut what if you are a prankster yourself? You might consider a more forgiving route. Think about how many pizza joints have the lines ringing with fake orders and prank calls. Now for businesses, the answer is simple - you don’t want future prank callers. When you answer the call, what do you want to happen? Do you want to have fun with the prank caller? Do you want to put the fear of God in them (we don’t recommend that)? What’s your angle? Learn what to say when you answer a prank call : Identify Your Intentionsīefore we get into the different responses you can give, you first have to think about your endgame. Besides, even if you were to come up with a half-decent reply - how quickly will they clap back? Say what you want about prank callers - they know how to navigate a conversation. It takes time to process information and come up with solid answers. As much as we’d like to come up with witty retorts - it just isn’t the default setting for most people. ![]() ![]() The Feel Good Group If your neighborhood hasn’t been mentioned above, it’s probably part of the wide web cast by The Feel Good Group, an events company dedicated to co-producing markets across various Houston neighborhoods.

You can certainly make it through one more day, right? So wait until you're having a great day and then decide if you want to quit your job. Do you have to quit your job right this second? Of course not. I mean, stop and think about it for a moment. For instance, you don't want to quit your job in the middle of a terrible day where it's 40 degrees and raining, you have a terrible cold, you're stewing over an argument you had on the phone with someone back home, and just nothing is going your way. In fact, one of the policies I have is never make major decisions during emotional times. You don't want to make career altering and life altering choices because you're having a bad day. Eventually they'll make for some of the most enjoyable stories you'll have to tell people over the years. And you know, these difficult times are always temporary. In fact, when you're facing tough times you have to keep reminding yourself that you knew this was coming and that (hopefully) tomorrow is going to be a better day. No matter what challenges you face out there you have to push through it and get to that one year mark safely. In fact, you should keep one specific goal in mind right from the start - getting through your rookie year safely with your first company. So no matter how difficult the many challenges are you'll be facing, you have to find it within yourself to fight through it and stay the course. But because they weren't prepared mentally for how difficult this job and lifestyle can be they quickly just became overwhelmed with the whole thing and walked away. Unfortunately a lot of people do exactly that early on in their careers and it's a real shame because many of them would have been outstanding drivers that went on to have long, enjoyable careers. Trust me when I say this - almost all of you at some point are going to want to pack your bags, head home, and never think about trucking again the rest of your life. But there's also be times you're convinced you made a huge mistake getting into trucking in the first place. You know, there's gonna be times when you're so excited about travelling the country in a big rig that you won't believe they're paying you to do it. You're going to experience some of the biggest swings in your mood, your confidence, and your optimism that you may have ever experienced in your life. You should go into it expecting your first year to be pretty much a neverending stream of tough challenges. So the best thing you can do is approach your training the way you would approach going through 'boot camp' in the military. So it's nearly impossible to prepare someone for things they haven't experienced in the past, and it's also impossible to prepare you for every single challenge you might face out there, of course. And as you might expect, most of the time you'll be facing numerous challenges all at once. This is just one example of the hardships you'll face out there, many of which will be a completely new experience for you. Now that level of solitude and isolation can be quite a traumatic experience for a lot of people, especially those who are used to being together all the time with their families back home. Have you ever even gone two or three days without seeing a single person you know? No family, no friends, no acquaintances? Nobody? Rarely will most people go one or two days without seeing someone they know, let alone weeks at a time without any relief. ![]() On top of that, it's also common for over the road drivers to spend several weeks travelling the country without seeing a single person they know. That level of isolation isn't something that most people experience very often. It will not be uncommon to spend 18 hours a day, or more, inside that truck alone, completely isolated from everyone. For instance, as a solo driver you're going to be alone in that truck far more than you would ever expect. We talk a lot about some of the specific hardships you'll face, including lonliness, stress, exhaustion, tough personalities, long days, erratic sleep patterns, and of course all sorts of terrible traffic and weather along the way.īut in the end it's impossible for most people to relate to some of these problems because it isn't anything they've experienced in the past. Now as you know, at truckingtruth we try like crazy to help prepare you for life on the road.

![]() Thatch roofs are used in many areas of the world today as they have low maintenance, good insulation and can be made quickly. The thatched roofs provide shelter, warmth and protection for people nearby. There may also be a sloping roof built above the thatch slabs. They are almost always built over a mound or platform which may be made from earth, wood or metal. These buildings are constructed in a similar way to a thatch roof but are made from other materials. People in some areas of the world use thatch roofs to protect their buildings as well as making them look attractive. With modern materials such as zinc, and more advanced technology it is possible get a thatch roof with more insulation. The colour of the thatch roof may also be affected by the type of wood used to make the shingles because of their different colours.Ī thatch roof can be more effective in keeping out the rain and protecting a building but they are not perfect, some changes have been made to them to help them perform better. The colours of a thatch is also affected by human activity such as soil and rainfall. The green appearance comes from algae and moss growing on top of roof material which has been moist for a long period of time. This is based on the type of material and the position of the sun in the sky. The colours of a thatch roof can range from dark green or black through to grey. The straw that was used to build thatch roofs were also prone to fire and would burn easily. The main issue was that it was extremely difficult to patch or repair the roof once it had started to deteriorate. ![]() Thatch roofs were cheap to build but they did not last long without maintenance. Thatch roofs dried quickly so if a leak occurred it would be difficult to fix as the material would not be moist enough to repair, like wooden shingles. Thatch roofs were an effective way of making buildings but they were very difficult to repair. This mixture would be applied onto the roof in thick layers before being smoothed out with furled cloth strips. Straw was mixed with lime, clay or cow dung juice to make a dense foam that would hold heat well. Thatch roofs were used because they required little construction to build and roofs could be built quickly. Thatch roofing originated in the mid-18th century where straw or reeds were used as a roofing material instead of wood shingles. The roof material is however not fire resistant. The roof is a type of roof that would be a common type of roof in a tropical region.Ī thatched roof has a lot of advantages like the roof cools the home more than a traditional roof, but also traps more hot air.Ī thatched roof will also help with protection against heavy storms. Historically, a thatched roof is made from dried leaves and reeds. While ancient roofing forts and homes were made from thatch, most modern homes use slate, rubber, tile, aluminum, or metal as their roofing, but most traditional homes still use thatch.
