It looks like the next market the Cupertino-based company wants to get its head into is automation. And as proof of this we have the Titan project in which Apple would be developing an electric vehicle that, according to the latest rumors, will arrive a year late, in 2021. But also Apple is also investing in companies related to automation., as is the case with Didi Chuxing, the Chinese Uber, which recently bought the Uber section in Asian territory, leaving all Uber users and their drivers under the obligation to start using the Didi Chuxing service.
As reported by the Wall Street Journal, eThe Chinese government has just opened an investigation into the acquisition of Uber China by its closest rival Didi Chuxing a few weeks ago. It should be remembered that last May, Apple visited the country to confirm the ingestion of 1.000 million dollars in Didi Chuxing, becoming part of its shareholders, so this investigation also affects Apple.
The Chinese trade minister said a few years ago that he has opened an investigation to investigate whether the acquisition of Uber China by its main rival Didi Chuxing Technology Co. affects free trade, after receiving various complaints in which it is claimed that It violates free competition in the country, all users having to go through the same ring.
The Chinese government has requested documentation about the purchase along with an explanation of why Didi Cuxing did not request the supervision of the antitrust commission of the country before proceeding with the purchase. In his defense, Didi affirms that the income that Uber obtained in the country was not so high as to be susceptible to this requirement.
