Zhenai
珍爱网
Zhenai (珍爱网) is a Chinese online dating platform that was among the buyout targets pursued by PAG, the Asia-Pacific private equity firm founded by Weijian Shan in 2010 . PAG's acquisition of Zhenai was part of a broader buyout strategy that also included deals for Yingde Gases and Osaka Universal Studios Japan, though 暗涌Waves later noted that such internet company buyouts in China "mostly did not see much follow-through" . The platform appears in PAG's portfolio alongside these other assets as of reporting through 2021, when PAG had filed for what was then expected to be Hong Kong's largest IPO of the year . Elsewhere's corpus does not contain additional detail on Zhenai's founding, current operations, or market position beyond this private-equity context.
