China’s tech giants are coming under increasing pressure from regulators worried about their growing influence.
By Monday, Tencent had shed more than $60bn (£42bn) from its market value as its share price slid over concerns of greater regulator scrutiny.
Media reports suggest that rival tech giant Alibaba may have to sell some of its media assets under the crackdown.
Chinese regulators have signalled a tougher approach towards tech firms.
