China recently released a new set of anti-monopoly guidelines with ominous applications to its tech giants. Alibaba's US traded stock took a haircut, piling on top of all the recent drama surrounding the failed IPO of its Ant Group subsidiary.

But what about Tencent, the other Chinese mega-giant? Tencent has stakes in some of the world's biggest video games. They also own the two biggest messaging apps in the world: QQ and WeChat.

In this video we are gonna look at Tencent’s anti-competitive actions. Considering what has been happening to Ant Group and Alibaba, is Tencent at risk of an anti-monopoly investigation too?
