PPTV

PPTV (Chinese: PP视频) is a Chinese video streaming website. Its predecessor, PPLive, was peer-to-peer streaming video freeware created at the Huazhong University of Science and Technology in Wuhan, Hubei Province. The group of companies that runs the website was headed by Cayman Islands-incorporated offshore company PPLive Corporation. However, the actual operations were mainly carried out by Shanghai SynaCast Media Tech Co., Ltd. (Chinese: 上海聚力传媒技术有限公司).

However, the stake was re-sold to Suning.com's largest shareholder, Zhang Jindong's Suning Holdings Group in 2015, for CN¥2.5879931 billion.[2]

TV rights

PPTV owns the following football broadcasting rights in China:

gollark: You can even conveniently do `x = assert(thing)`, because the return value of `assert` there is `thing`.
gollark: Maybe I could make a useful utility library out of the random code I copy between projects a lot, like `map`, `fread`, `fwrite`, `fetch` and all that.
gollark: Also an approximate cross-server TPS measuring thing, although that's something like 5 lines of code and really does not need a library much (unless I add rolling averages and stuff).
gollark: I also have a ridiculously gigantic DEFLATE thing tweaked slightly from jackmacwindows's port of some WoW developer's thing.
gollark: Would adding the LZW library potatOS uses be useful? It's basically a minimal compression thing.
