      In China, the government is more powerful than capital. No matter where their money comes from, Tencent is at its heart a Chinese company, with all the shenanigans that entails.

        > the government is more powerful than capital That depends how you perceive government. The Chinese government is just one of the the executive branches of CCP holdings.

          That's a strange way to look at sovereign wealth. Their government has power far beyond the budget and no real checks and balances.
