Recently, Tencent's largest shareholder Prosus (a subsidiary of South African media group Naspers) announced a reduction in its holdings of Tencent shares by 192 million shares, accounting for about 2% of the total share capital, at a total cost of about HK$114.175 million.

The relationship between Prosus and Tencent dates back to 2000. At the time, Ma Huateng's search for financing hit a wall four times, and Prosus gave Tencent a valuation of 60 million US dollars and bought 46.5% of the latter's shares at a price of 34 million US dollars.

At the time of Tencent's 2004 Hong Kong stock market IPO, Prosus' shares were diluted to 35.7%. After listing, Prosus held Tencent continuously for 14 years without reducing its holdings. It was very optimistic about Tencent's development.

According to some media, Prosus' investment back then is now worth 244.5 billion US dollars (about 1.6 trillion yuan) and is considered the “greatest” investment in human history.
