One day we are going to wake up to the headline Tencent acquires a stake in the holding company Solar System inc whose main assets are the Sun and the eight planets .

Reporter talking . This shows Tencent as already started branching out , since last years news report that Tencent has a stake in every company on earth , they also revealed that unfortunately Pluto was not included because it had been delisted from the planetary exchange and later sold off to Trump who drilled holes in it and sprayed it green and filled the craters with sand is now a trump course, Tencent is confident that they will gain possession since They bought a controlling interest in Trump in 2016 and also own 5% of the junkstock that is the actual company.
