36Kr exclusive cites Volcengine-adjacent sources; no primary financial filing re-opened.
36Kr’s Intelligent Emergence column, citing people close to Volcengine, says ByteDance’s Seedance video model now draws about 50% of revenue from overseas markets after roughly 5× overseas growth over six months, with domestic customers led by Tencent, Bilibili, and other internet firms. The piece also recalls the earlier MPA memo and Seedance 2.5 IP-progress notes. Primary ByteDance/Volcengine financial disclosure was not re-opened.
