<h4>Twitter董事长称全球用户数已突破2亿</h4>
This very short blurb from Sina.com features an announcement by Twitter chairman Jack Dorsey that Twitter has now exceeded 200 Million users. <!--more--> 

I find that when wading through Chinese newsspeak, knowing the word 称 [pinyin]cheng1[/pinyin] makes all the difference. This is the formal / newspaper version of the word 说　[pinyin]shuo1[/pinyin], both words meaning "to say".

BEIJING TIME - JANUARY 12 - AFTERNOON NEWS: On Tuesday, Twitter's Chairman of the Board Jack Dorsey announced that Twitter's global user base now exceeds 200,000,000, and is projected to exceed Facebook in the future.

Tuesday, during an interview with American talk show host Charlie Rose, said that right now 200,000,000 people use Twitter, and although there's a big gap between that and Facebook's 500,000,000 users, he believes Twitter's numbers will eventually exceed those of Facebook.
