China YouTV's JV Partner Signs Agreements with IT Company to Increase Online Information Content
China YouTV Corp. (OTCBB: CYTV), a publicly traded company that
provides online video viewing services through its CnBoo website in
China, reports that its Chinese Joint Venture Partner HuaJu has signed
an agreement with Beijing Zhide Diankang E-Business Co. Ltd. (Zhide) to
exchange online video resources.
According to the agreement, Zhide will provide CnBoo with video
service and products as well as video resources. All of these resources
have legal copyrights and other related legal rights for license and
use. CnBoo will upload these resources onto its website at www.cnboo.com
to be accessed, shared and distributed by users. CnBoo will also offer
related technical supports and maintenance for its users. Meanwhile
Zhide will promote CnBoo as the "designated special area" on its
official website www.zol.com.cn. The two parties may also report on specific interests from time to time to promote their collaboration.
www.zol.com.cn
belongs to CNET and is considered the most valuable professional IT
website in Greater China. Up to October 2006, the combined traffic data
of www.zol.com.cn reached 25 million per day and the number of total registered members was 2.5 million.
"Zhide's tremendous collection of professional IT content and its
commitment to innovative growth in the IT business make it the perfect
partner," said Mr. Wei CEO of CYTV. "This alliance will further
accelerate our growth into a world recognized online service channel,
providing our website with even greater opportunities to continue
strengthen our brand and expand our reach."

Joint Venture in China on March 16, 2007. According to the Agreement,

provide the required working capital for the Joint Venture. HuaJu will
be in charge of the daily operation of the Joint Venture. HuaJu has
