滴滴快的投資印度最大叫車應用Ola
Didi Kuaidi, the Chinese ride-hailing app, has becomean investor in its Indian counterpart Ola – raisingthe stakes as Uber tries to gain a greater toehold in Asia.
中國叫車應用滴滴快的(Didi Kuaidi)已成為印度叫車應用Ola的投資者，在優步(Uber)試圖擴大在亞洲的影響力之際，此舉將提高競爭賭注。
The size of the investment was not disclosed but the funds will help Ola expand in India, DidiKuaidi said in a statement on Monday. Ola is already India's biggest taxi-hailing business, with750,000 journeys a day in taxis, leased cars and motorised rickshaws giving it an 80 per centmarket share.
滴滴并未透露投資規模，但該公司在周一的一份聲明中稱，這筆資金將幫助Ola在印度擴張。Ola已是印度最大叫車公司，每日通過出租車、租賃汽車和機動三輪車提供75萬次的用車服務，占據印度80%的市場份額。
Despite this dominance, the move highlights the intensifying competition among ride-hailingcompanies in Asia as US firm Uber ramps up its efforts in the Chinese and Indian markets. Chiefexecutive Travis Kalanick has described both as the company's most important global growthmarkets.
盡管Ola在印度市場占據主導地位，但滴滴投資Ola之舉突顯出亞洲叫車應用公司之間的競爭日益激烈，美國公司優步正在中國和印度市場加速擴張。優步首席執行官特拉維斯慍灓尼克(Travis Kalanick)把這兩個市場都視為優步最重要的全球增長市場。
The deal will also indirectly fuel greater competition between China's biggest internetcompanies: investors in Uber's China unit include Baidu, the Chinese search company, whileDidi's backers include Tencent and Alibaba. Ola is backed, among others, by Japanese telecomsgroup SoftBank.
這筆交易還間接加劇了中國最大的幾家互聯網公司之間的競爭：優步中國公司的投資者包括中國搜索公司百度(Baidu)，而滴滴的支持者包括騰訊(Tencent)和阿里巴巴(Alibaba)。Ola的支持者包括日本電信集團軟銀(SoftBank)。
