Sohu.com <SOHU.O> to buy ChinaRen

   BEIJING, Sept 12 (Reuters) - Chinese Internet portal Sohu.com
Inc <SOHU.O> has struck a deal to acquire rival Web company
ChinaRen, a source familiar with the deal said on Tuesday.
The deal, which the source said will be announced this week,
would boost Nasdaq-listed Sohu's market share in mainland China
and increase pressure on its other competitors, such as Sina.com
<SINA.O> and Netease.com <NTES.O> to make their own mergers or
acquisitions.
A Sohu spokeswoman and a top ChinaRen executive declined to
comment.
Sohu's site, www.sohu.com, is a search engine and portal
modelled after U.S.-based giant Yahoo! Inc <YHOO.O>.
ChinaRen -- www.chinaren.com -- is more narrowly focused,
drawing a high concentration of young Chinese university
graduates with whom the site's alumni chatrooms are a big hit.
