# China Literature Moves to Majority Control in Target Firm via Tencent-Linked Deal

China Literature ( (HK:0772) ) just unveiled an announcement.

China Literature’s PRC operating entity Shanghai Hongwen has agreed to acquire an additional 28.22% stake in a target company from Tencent-controlled Linzhi Lichuang for RMB400.78 million. The deal will raise China Literature’s holding in the target from 31.48% to about 59.70%, giving it majority control.

The transaction is classified as a connected deal under Hong Kong’s listing rules because both China Literature and the vendor are ultimately controlled by Tencent, and it must be aggregated with a prior 26.67% stake purchase completed in July 2025. As the combined size remains below the threshold for shareholder approval, the deal only triggers reporting and announcement requirements, and completion is still conditional, so investors are cautioned that it may not proceed.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:0772) stock is a Buy  
with a HK$36.00 price target.
