If you happened to have a visit at the Tencent headquarter building recently, it's impossible for you to miss the newly launched company "star" -- IPENGOO. It looks like a black furry ball with two beady eyes and it's the new brand identity of Tencent. In a very short time, the penguin mascot swept out the internal company and became a phenomenal success.
