Chinese social media-based e-commerce firm Pinduoduo has filed for a US$1-billion initial public offering in the United States, joining the IPO rush of a number of Chinese unicorns such as Xiaomi and on-demand local services firm Meituan Dianping.

Tencent-backed Pinduoduo, which was set up in Shanghai in 2015, allows users to participate in group buying deals with deep discounts through social networking sites, and has been quickly evolving to challenge the dominant position of market leaders Alibaba and JD.
于2015年在上海成立、并由腾讯支持的拼多多，能够让用户通过社会人际关系网，以团队的形式享受大折扣优惠购物。它迅速演变成对市场巨头兼引领者阿里巴巴和京东的一大挑战。
The company's revenue, which comes from merchants' advertising and transaction commission, increased by 37 fold in the first quarter this year from the year-earlier period to 1.38 billion yuan (US$219 million), according to its prospectus filed to the Securities and Exchange Commission last Saturday.

在今年的前三个月，该公司的商品总销售额达到662亿元，这几乎是2017年全年成交总额（1412亿元）的一半。
The Shanghai-headquartered Pinduoduo didn't specify its share pricing or its intended listing time.

Its team purchase model, in which friends and family members invite more potential buyers so the team purchase price becomes even lower, has been an effective solution to aggregate consumer demand and link them with merchants and manufacturers.

Founder and CEO Huang Zheng said in a letter to shareholders that it seeks to evolve its "team purchase" formats in the future for different user scenarios.
