As of August 2019, many Chinese sellers still have difficulty in entering the platform, mainly because the platform has not yet opened up a large number of entry quotas, and Latin Americans are relatively inefficient. Many sellers have not received a response for a long time after submitting information. The author recommends that you can actively search online and contact the platform’s investment manager. It will be faster to enter the platform through the investment manager.
