Specific objective: To equip these registrants with reliable domain names that clearly distinguish official services, proprietary content channels, and brand entry points. This helps build a transparent and verifiable "Doubao-branded ecosystem" across the Internet, ensuring coordinated management of the brand's digital assets. 2) Deliver trusted, high-quality content to end users a. Target users: Doubao's global audience b. Specific objective: Users will be able to seamlessly access platform-verified official content and services through the ".Doubao" domain.
