      Alibaba to buy stake of South China Morning Post: Caixin

      Jack Ma, founder of Chinese Internet giant Alibaba, is in talks to buy a stake in the South China Morning Post (SCMP) newspaper, people familiar with the matter have told a major Chinese news site.

      Ma has been negotiating the deal with the SCMP Group's major shareholder the Kuok family since last year and the contract will be signed shortly, a source told Caixin, though details on the size of the stake Ma will buy and the value of the deal are still not clear.

      The SCMP Group declined to comment.

      If the deal is agreed on, this would be another investment by Alibaba in media after its recent bid for Youku Tudou, the video sharing website seen as China's YouTube, and financial news provider Yicai, in which Alibaba invested 1.2 billion yuan (187.8 million U.S. dollars) in June.

      Established as an e-commerce company, Alibaba just reported record single-day online sales of 14.3 billion U.S. dollars on Nov. 11, the Cyber Monday-equivalent shopping festival that Alibaba created six years ago.

      Now, with a market cap over 200 billion U.S. dollars on the New York Stock Exchange, Alibaba's ambition reaches far beyond e-commerce. Besides its investments in the media sector, Ma and his team have also bet on companies as varied as Chinese car-hailing app Didi Kuaidi, soccer team Guangzhou Evergrande, and financial software maker Hundsun Technologies.

      Founded in 1903, the South China Morning Post is the most widely circulated English language newspaper in Hong Kong. The SCMP Group, which also contains other businesses such as magazines and printing, is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and reported net profits of 208.7 million Hong Kong dollars (26.9 million U.S. dollars) in the first half of 2015.
