BEIJING, Nov. 17 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- China.com, a leading Internet services provider in China and a Hong Kong listed subsidiary of CDC Corporation (NASDAQ:China), today announced it has launched a new service, v.china.com, that allows people to watch video clips from that site. The v.china.com site differs itself from the other video sharing websites on its content, which comes from self-developed or co-developed video films or authorized pieces provided by contracted partners. This approach addresses the copyright issues which has long plagued the video sharing industry. In filming the programs for v.china.com, China.com used a series of films to explain current news with humorous language. One program, for example, is called the "Straight Show" which is similar to the "Daily Show" starring Jon Stewart. One program's DJ is the popular "Sister Lotus," who became famous in China via her S-shape self-shot pictures. "Crazy White Collar" is another show about the lives of Chinese professionals. It is directed by Mr. Li Feng, an editor of numerous films by Zhang Yimou. "We are leveraging TV programs from our content provider partners to provide our users with rich choices of videos," said Xiaowei Chen, Ph.D., executive director and chief financial officer of China.com. "We also partnered with original and exclusive grass root video producers. In addition, we are discussing with our partners on the commercial potential of this content and opportunities like advertising-sharing and mobile value-added services. With 3G's arrival, exclusive and user-generated content, especially videos, will play important roles on not only web portals, but mobile platforms as well."
