I think we should start digging a bit on Tencent, maybe create a new infographic since this shit doesn't seem to be going away (in fact the opposite is happening)

Made a thread on hq about it so it doesn't get lost between threads and forgotten about

I'll post what I got here and there

 

Tencent promoting socialism

>Tencent to bring world's hottest video game (PUBG) to China, promises socialist values

>The move comes after China’s content regulator slammed the South Korean-made game, PUBG for short, last month for being too violent and said it would likely be blocked because it “severely deviates from socialist core values”.

>Tencent, which recently outstripped Facebook Inc in market value, said it had won the exclusive rights to the game in China, and that it would modify the game in order to meet the requirements of China’s regulators and censors.

>In its latest statement, the company said it would highlight the spirit of teamwork and fair competition from PUBG and ensure it delivers “healthy, positive cultural and value guidance, especially for underage users”.

 

CAN THE NEXT BAKER ADD THIS TO THE LIST OF CURRENT TASKS? PREFERABLY NEAR THE TOP?

>Censorship on Tencent's massive IM platform

>While Chinese users would naturally expect that Tencent would have to submit to local censorship regulations, the fact that the service is also filtering global users is troubling. WeChat garnered a significant amount of buzz last year as it grew to almost 300 million users, and Tencent even acknowledged that it was seeing a surge in international users. However, the messaging app could encounter problems if international users become worried that their conversations will be monitored or censored.

Tencent trying to get people addicted to mobile shit on console markets (Nintendo Switch) to combine/consolidate audiences to maximize profits

>‘Honor of Kings,’ the Red-Hot Mobile Game in China, Tries to Crack the U.S.

>The game, which allows teams of players to battle one another online, is so popular in China that Tencent earlier this year installed a curfew for young players after one state-run newspaper called it a “drug” and “poison.”

>To make ‘Honor of Kings’ more appealing to Western players, Tencent added Wonder Woman, Batman and other heroes from the DC Comics universe, and renamed it ‘Arena of Valor.’
