What are your acquisition strategies at the beginning of 2010?

Our strategy focuses on tracking the international market for 2010, established relationships with main format distributors, and carefully exploring and identifying emerging companies with fresh ideas and high potential.

What products are you looking for?

We are mainly interested in self-contained game shows with a strong finale and prime time studio based shows. More generally speaking, I believe that there will be a greater demand of original but low budget shows (as we all know about the crisis).

What rights are you looking for?

We acquire format rights only, we don't acquire finished products.
