If you search Google for the most expensive companies in the world, then the top 20 companies are the ones we hear about every day. Google, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft. But there is one name in all of them that you may have never heard of before. Tencent. This company is more expensive than Samsung, Mastercard, Toyota and Netflix. But if someone asks what it does, then you may not get a good answer. But the truth is that Tencent does almost everything. In some cases, the company works secretly. That's why many people are not familiar with its name. But whether you realize it or not, you must be using products or services in which Tencent is involved in some way or the other. On the other hand, Tencent's home country China has a very different story. Everyone here knows that Tencent is a huge part of their lives. And the reason is that Tencent has made the impossible possible in China. An app that controls everyone together. Welcome again in the videos of facts finder tv. Viewers,
Tencent has made a mobile app called WeChat, which is also called the Operating System of China. Because almost every citizen of China uses this app, which is also 4 hours a day. This time is more than the time spent on all social media platforms in the rest of the world. The reason for this is that wechat in China is a part of all social media platforms. Facebook, YouTube, PayPal, WhatsApp, Netflix, Google, Uber, Tinder, Zoom and Amazon are all part of wechat in China. One app can call someone, chat, order groceries and even send money through this app. Just like today we are incomplete without mobile phones, in China, people are incomplete without this app. A single company has personal data of 1.4 billion people in China. From their location to their bank account details and from one message to search history. And then this app becomes even more dangerous when you find out that Tencent shares all this data with the Chinese government which makes WeChat one of the most powerful
surveillance tools ever made. Not only that, but only the messages sent by the Chinese government can be sent to this Tencent app. And if this is not done and your luck is good, then this message will not be sent. But even if it happens for some reason, it can send you to jail or you can disappear. Yes, such cases have actually happened. A Chinese citizen wrote something to his friends in a joke against the government on WeChat group. But the next day, the police caught him and took him away. The Chinese government has openly said that they can also read deleted messages from WeChat and for that they do not need user permission or the court. The sign is very clear. The Chinese Communist Party does not want anyone to talk against them even if they forget. Amnesty International is an organization that works for human rights, such as freedom of speech. According to their report, Tencents has a 0 out of 100 score in protecting its user data. Not only Tencents, but every Chinese company
has to have good relations with the Chinese Communist Party to succeed. But Tencents is very close to the Chinese government. And that's why they don't have any competitors in the Chinese market. In return for this freedom, Tencents has been a very important weapon for the Chinese government. It is believed that the people of the Communist Party are also present in the executive board of Tencents, who make important decisions about the application. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Chinese government had imposed restrictions on people via WeChat. The infected people were restricted to outdoor shopping on WeChat and geofencing on their location. So that if they leave their homes, the foreign police will know about it. When Tencent succeeded in making its monopoly in China, they started spreading themselves out in the world. Spotify, Snapchat and Universal Music are the few companies that have invested Tencents. Tencents is the biggest gaming company in the world. Its
average income is much higher than competitors. Its gaming department is much bigger than Nintendo and Sony. And the same is true in other industries. Tencent's payment department is about the same size as PayPal. According to reports, via WeChat Pay, payments are transferred to 1 billion dollars in a day. That means, even if you mix Visa and Mastercard, you don't make that many transactions. In addition, Tencent has also started making its own money in the music industry, e-sports and movie production. China's weapon has even started to influence the world of the outside world. The winning example is the video platform of WeChat. In America, the National Basketball Association has supported WeChat to show its matches in China. In 2019, the manager of Houston Rockets wrote something on his personal Twitter account in favor of Hong Kong, on which Tencent stopped showing matches of Houston Rockets. Because many people watched these matches through WeChat videos in America, the manager
