Facebook China - Zuckerberg Offers $85 Million For Zhangzuo (UPDATED)
Zuckerberg Offers $85 Million For Zhangzuo (UPDATED)

Social networking is expanding globally; Facebook is looking at extending into the Chinese market by trying to acquire Zhanzuo.com, the largest social network in China.

“Facebook already boasts more than 100,000 users of its English-language network in China and rumours of its local-language entry were fuelled with the company’s recent registration in China of the domain facebook.cn,” the Times reported.

Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook while a student at Harvard, and has been looking for a way to tap into the seven million active users in China. He offered $85 million for Zhangzuo which has about seven million active users.

UPDATE: Facebook denies any deal.

 "No offer has been made, and no acquisition of any company in China is being considered by Facebook," the representative wrote in an e-mail. "We do not know who the spokeperson is that they are referring to in The Times story and were never contacted by the paper to confirm the accuracy of this story." (news)
