    I don't really care but if this is true it explains why GT got such a good deal, though i don't have much faith in this being true.

    Edit: By the way, we should wait for his side of the story before getting our pitchforks out.

    Didn't people already say that they were own by Qidian? Truck-kun, you're drunk. Go back to making cheap isekai protagonist for us.

    Fuuuuuuck!!!! (I feel the need not to censor this time). That suspicion in the back of my head was right. Damn, this is getting into corporate secrecy and espionage here. I'm just going to sit back and watch.

    Edit: I'm putting this up in my first post because this thread has gotten too long. Can anyone tell me if there was this much excitement when when this happened to the JP novel community. Or was it like "oh well."

    I know right, all we need now is those Qidian lovers to show their evidence as they were hating on our speculations (now turned accusations).

    This is from Qidian's official legal preparatory IPO filing in Hong Kong. That being said, it is also from July 3rd and technically a draft, not the final version (which should be up in future months). GGP should be given the chance to respond to this.

    **REDDIT
    'm a very bored guy with way too much time on my hands.
    Okay Let's set some things straight. So QI
    According to their TOS They are "owned" by Cloudary Holdings Limited: http://imgur.com/a/Lll5K
    And if you do some google searches along with the SEC you can find cool stuff they filed here:https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1518239/000095012311063204/h04935a2fv1za.htm
    In particular of note:

    http://imgur.com/a/tYoq3
    if you look at the cool history and corporate structure QI is owned by Cloudary Company based in the Caymans
    So basically some stuff happens and it gets eventually sold to Shanda who merges with Tencent:

    https://www.crunchbase.com/organization/cloudary#/entity
    to form Yuewen
    Then as of JULY 3rd:

    https://www.ft.com/content/caf0a48d-1777-3064-ae71-9b1ee9c05a52
    Tencent decides to spin off China Literature, or Yuewen, on the Hong Kong stock exchange. Which makes the documents publicly available with some redacted stuff :D
    Here are the documents filed from the HongKongStockExchange:

    http://www.hkexnews.hk/app/sehk/2017/2017063005/documents/sehk201707030047.pdf
    I got bored and skipped to Page 109
    Which had some funny stuff. Because Yuewen(Company)
    owns 100% of Cloudary Company (The one based in the Caymans wink wink) which
    owns 100% of China Reading Co. Ltd. <- AKA QI
    owns 90% of Gravity Tales LLC
    Who that mysterious 10% owner of gravity tales is we shall never know
    Enjoy :D and forgive my atrocious formatting**

    If this is a fabrication, it's a damn good fabrication. Either there's a genius out there who has nothing better to do than make fake document for several months or it's totally real. I can clearly see Gravity Tales under their offshore Cayman Island company.

    But then again, it's a draft... hm... don't we have anything final?
