The target users are foreigners, who live in China not really the global audience English-only information from third-parties including CityWeekend, ChinesePod, ICS etc which are popular news resources.

Featured Groups in different categories including Nightlife & Events, Business & Classifieds, Travel & Leisure, Personal & Dating, Language & Education, which actually reflects the life of foreigners in China.But interesting enough, two major difference you can find on QQ International: It also supports the basic instant messaging features such as group chat etc, but many bundled features such as QQShow and so on are currently removed from QQ International. Feature-wise, QQ International is more like a light version of QQ Chinese version.

QQ used to have some English versions, but unlike them which are simply QQ with English interface developed by the same dev team, QQ International is now a separate product and developed by a team based in Shanghai. Tencent does seriously spends effort on QQ International 2009 comes to the end, and the answer is finally reveal till we walked into Tencent’s Shanghai office and chatted with the QQ International team.
