－ Revenues from our VAS business increased by 32% to RMB264.2 billion on a yearon-year basis. Online games revenues grew by 36% to RMB156.1 billion. The increase was primarily driven by revenue growth from our smart phone games in both domestic and overseas markets, particularly from titles such as Peacekeeper Elite, Honour of Kings and PUBG Mobile, as well as the full year effect of Supercell consolidation, while our PC client games revenues decreased slightly. Total smart phone games revenues (including smart phone games revenues attributable to our social networks business) were RMB146.6 billion and PC client games revenues were RMB44.6 billion for the year ended 31 December 2020. Social networks revenues increased by 27% to RMB108.1 billion. The increase was primarily due to the consolidation of HUYA’s live broadcast services, revenue growth from our music and video subscription services, as well as growth from our in-game virtual item sales.
－ Revenues from our Online Advertising business increased by 20% to RMB82.3 billion on a year-on-year basis, benefitting from our platform integration and upgraded algorithms, along with rising demand from advertiser categories such as education, Internet services and eCommerce platforms. Social and others advertising revenues grew by 29% to RMB68.0 billion. The increase was primarily driven by higher advertising revenues from Weixin (primarily Weixin Moments) as a result of its increased inventories, as well as revenue contributions from our mobile advertising network due to our video format advertisements. Media advertising revenues decreased by 8% to RMB14.3 billion. The decrease mainly reflected lower advertising revenues from Tencent Video amid the challenging macro environment and delays to content productions and launches, partly offset by advertising revenue growth from our music streaming apps.
－Revenues from FinTech and Business Services increased by 26% to RMB128.1 billion on a year-on-year basis. The increase primarily reflected higher revenues from commercial payment, wealth management and Cloud Services, driven by our expanded user base and business scale.
