Facebook looks to create presence in China
Adjust font size:

The second-largest American community website, Facebook.com, is now looking to purchase a Chinese site in order to break into the Chinese market.

After buying into a Chinese website, Facebook will authorize the site to use its technologies and offer brand support. An inside source said recently that Facebook gave Zhanzuo.com, a Chinese community website, a buying offer priced originally at US$85 million, then rumored to have risen to US$100 million. Zhanzuo has turned down the offer.

China has the world's second largest cyber population with 25-year-old or younger cyber citizens accounting for over 50 percent of the total. This has attracted many international investors eyeing Chinese Internet business.
