The Chairman of QJY, Dr. Wong Yu Hong, Philip, stated that, since the outbreak of the financial tsunami in the fourth quarter of 2008, the global economic outlook had remained uncertain up to the first half of 2009. During the difficult times, the Group decisively reduced its investment in large TV drama production projects with a long payback period. At the same time, the Group captures opportunities brought by the state policies for the media industry for establishing an integrated media business platform with TV media business as its core operations in China. As a result, the Group has, one year ahead of its schedule, became one of the few overseas listed companies focusing on domestic integrated media business in China.

Business Prospects:

The CEO of QJY, Dr. Anita Leung mentioned that, in July 2009, China's Premier Wen Jiabao announced the Cultural Ventures Planning giving strong support to the development of eight major cultural businesses in China. The Group's principal businesses, including TV programs production, advertising, show and entertainment promotion, and culture creativity, all fall within the scope of the Plan which are expected to receive great attention and strong support from the state.

In addition to the revenue from distribution of non-script small-scale TV programs and related advertisements, the Group will be able to maintain steady growth in revenue from sales of its film library. The three new media business, namely, Out of Home Advertising, Large Scale Concerts and TV Shopping, will also bring additional revenue to the Group.

It is estimated that the revenue from cross-media advertising and TV Shopping business will grow. The Group will continue to expand into other media related businesses which are covered by the state's encouraging policies so as to become a full fledged integrated media group.
