Scrutica
Supply Chain
Power capacity, hardware inventory, upstream suppliers, and downstream customers for the row owned by Tencent Holdings Ltd.; any BIS Entity List exposure is walked through the canonical org graph rather than asserted at the facility row.
Capacity, ownership chain, and supply-chain position for Tencent Gui'an Seven Star Data Center, including any export-control exposure that surfaces when the BIS Entity List touches a node above the facility in the chain.
As of 2026-07-06
Operator (or owner of record) per the Scrutica facility row.
Tencent Holdings Ltd., the documented owner of Tencent Gui'an Seven Star Data Center, sits as a seed node in 1 pre-built cascade scenario. Severity is the scenario's seed-impact value (per-node override where one is defined); decay reflects the curator's substitutability assessment for the disrupted role. Run any scenario to walk the propagation through the full supply-chain graph.
Upstream dependency on US tools (EDA, advanced equipment, foundry access) is structural for Chinese AI compute consumers — domestic substitutes exist but cover narrow node ranges, so impact propagates with little dampening per hop.
Description
Tencent's flagship Guizhou self-built data center, sited inside a tunneled mountain in the Gui'an New Area, Guizhou Province. The 51-hectare campus carves more than 30,000 m² of tunneled volume out of a ~100 m hill (five tunnel entrances, each ~15 m high and two floors); construction broadcast on CCTV state media April 2018. Designed to civil-air-defense standards (effectively bomb-shelter-grade), the facility was reported by South China Morning Post (May 2018) and DCD as Tencent's most secure DC, hosting WeChat / Weixin core infrastructure. Capacity discussed publicly: ~300,000-server total, with ~1/6 of servers (~50,000) inside the five cavern halls hosting Tencent's most-critical big data. Total site area ~470,000 m² per Idcnova-Media reporting on the completion of the Seven Star DC.
Notes
authority_tier=2: per-facility MW capacity NOT disclosed at primary tier; facility existence + scale corroborated across Tencent ESG disclosures + state media CCTV April 2018 + South China Morning Post 2018-05 + DCD trade press. Lat/lng intentionally NULL — facility-precision coordinates not published in primary source. Power capacity left NULL: rumored ~300,000-server total per state-media broadcasts but no operational-MW disclosure in Tencent filings.

No flags found across the chain (BIS Entity List, designation-cascade closures, or compute-threshold reporting obligations) as of 2026-07-06. Cascade closures evaluated: 0.
No ownership-change events documented in the available data for any entity in this chain over the last 5 years. Events draw from a licensed corporate-ownership database’s deal records (M&A, buyout, divestiture, asset sale, JV formation); coverage is strongest for private US/EU transactions and partial for state-owned-enterprise restructurings or non-Western private deals. Subsequent ingestion runs may add events here.

Touches Tencent Holdings Ltd. (chain hop 1) via a private-market fund. Commitment dollar value not disclosed.
The walk for Tencent Gui'an Seven Star Data Centerstarts at the operator org id (or owner org id when no operator is recorded) and climbs upward through the unified affiliate graph, normalized to trace child-to-parent relationships. At each hop, the highest-authority parent edge wins (priority ordering: SEC EDGAR / 10-K / LEI registry > licensed corporate-ownership database > licensed supply-chain database > BIS / Federal Register > licensed affiliate graph). Confidence and recency break ties.
The walk terminates on (a) a node with a public-filing-grade ancestor edge — a SEC filer, an LEI-registered listed entity, or a 10-K-disclosed parent — (b) a government entity, (c) a 10-hop limit, or (d) a detected cycle. When termination is not at a public filer or government, the panel labels the chain's end-state as opaque beyond that point. Opacity is reported, never implied.
Per-source confidence (licensed corporate-ownership database): HIGH for Parent / Subsidiary edges; MEDIUM for JV and AFFILIATE edges. Known limitations: (1) shell companies with undisclosed principals terminate the public-record walk; (2) recent transactions reach the panel after the database's weekly refresh; (3) cross-jurisdiction private holding structures may carry intermediate hops that are not in any ingested source. Each row carries an edge-level as of date so freshness is auditable per hop.
Two further caveats are inherent to how the walker and the underlying data compose. The walker selects a single highest-authority parent per hop, so JV or multi-parent ownership structures collapse to one displayed path; alternate parents exist in the ingested sources but are not surfaced on this card. And some licensed-database edges encode parent-of relations against entity-resolved stub IDs whose display name reflects a sub-entity (a business unit, an acquired-then-renamed line) rather than the canonical parent — when a chain reads structurally surprising, the per-row source citation is the authoritative reference, not the chain's narrative shape.
Computed at: 2026-07-06. Walk depth observed: 2 hops. Sources combined: Scrutica facility record + licensed corporate-ownership database + SEC CIK cross-reference + LEI registry + (where applicable) licensed supply-chain database + Federal Register designation closures. The licensed databases are held under subscription and not redistributed; per-hop labels name no vendor.
