China YouTV JV Partner Signs Agreement to Host "Video Creativity Competition" on CnBoo

The contest began on January 7, 2008 and will last for eight weeks. According to the contract, HuaJu will provide technical support and launch a dedicated channel on CnBoo for the contest. All candidates can join the competition and upload their video to CnBoo. Total prizes of RMB9,000 (approximately US$1,300) will be provided by Julian.

According to data from video contest clearinghouse VidOpp.com, 192 video contests with cash prizes were featured on variety sites in 2007, with prizes totalling $1,095,425. Video contests may be held for any number of reasons - to encourage brand loyalty, to create new viral video sensations, or to leverage "crowd-sourcing" for new entertainment concepts - but one thing is certain: video contests are on the rise.

Big brands such as Home Depot, LG Electronics and Sony have been getting into the act and have been successful in promoting related projects or increasing recognition and interest from customers. HuaJu is following this trend to increase membership and raise awareness of CnBoo.

"Taking a great idea from concept to completed product is quite possible using today's technology. Oftentimes, the only thing that prevents individuals from generating revenue from a completed product is an inability to share it with the public. For this reason, we are glad to provide a platform to all candidates who have a concept they want to show the world," said Mr. James Wei, CEO of CYTV. "With this contest, anyone can demonstrate their talent to the public, not just netizens. All of these efforts will translate into increased value of the Company."
