Ladies and gentlemen, Good afternoon!First, it’s my great pleasure to extend a warm welcome to all of you.I sincerely hope to communicate with everyone in English but unfortunately my English is poor, so allow me to continue my speech in Chinese, Thank you! It’s my pleasure to be here with you today.Because of the cooperation between citrussTV and GHS, we have so many friends who came to Dubai from all over the world.Thank you very much.We have the opportunity to start our business cooperation and trade from here to the Middle East, North Africa, China and even the whole world. When I was having breakfast at the hotel today, I saw the carrot.The carrot reminds me of the Silk Road two thousand years ago.In fact, many fruits and vegetables in China have foreign names such as cucumber, lima bean, and also watermelon. Through two thousand years, the Silk Road also brought China's porcelain, silk, and tea to the Middle East.It only takes a few hours from China to Dubai by air now.However, two thousand years ago, it was a quite distant distance.Fortunately, our ancestors were not blocked by this far distance. They crossed the vast desert, and built the ancient Silk Road with a total length of 6440 km.Two thousand years later, Chinese President Mr. Xi Jinping launched the “Belt and Road Initiative”.We hope we can develop a new economic community and even a destiny community with the countries along the ancient Silk Road. The cooperation between GHS and citrussTV is an example of the successful cooperation under the “Belt and Road Initiative”. I have to point out that last October I asked Samuel to do some research on the market of the Middle East, we wanted to set up a TV shopping company in Middle East. At the beginning we planned to set up a TV shopping company by ourselves.During this process, in order to understand our competitors well, I asked Samuel to contact the staffs in citrussTV frequently. Through communications with Nicolas, Walid and others from citrussTV, we are glad to find that there was much in common between our two companies. We have the same understanding in the company’s culture, which is the basement of our cooperation.We have become partners from the first meeting in last October to today's investment.It took less than a year from the very beginning to the final international cooperation,which is extremely fast. The negotiation process is not always smooth, of course. I still remember the first time when Walid and Nicolas went to Beijing to visit GHS, they came in such a hurry at the Terminal 3 of Beijing Capital Airport which may be the most famous tourist attraction they have visited.After this cooperation, I would like to invite Nicolas and Walid to China to enjoy the beautiful and breath-taking scenery.Later, I came to Dubai and had intensive discussions with Walid at the hotel.Walid and I discussed our cooperation from morning to evening, we were too dedicated and forgot to eat. So, my deepest impression on our business negotiations in Dubai is hunger.Then I gained an experience that when the negotiations become really hard, skipping meals would make it easier to succeed. This is a joke, of course.Fortunately, thanks to the mutual understanding and tolerance, we have found our similarity and reached our cooperation. The shift from the beginning of the competition to the final cooperation is because we see more value in cooperation rather than competition. In today’s society, by replacing the zero-sum game with cooperation, a win-win situation becomes the solid foundation for our future success. I am the descendant of the Chinese sage Confucius, and I am his 73rd generations descendant.My ancestor Confucius said two sentences, one is harmony in diversity, another is co-existence with difference.What is the meaning of those? It means we have to respect each other's differences under a common goal.This is the wisdom of Chinese people, we pursue harmony, equality, mutual benefit and win-win situation, GHS also takes this principle as the basic value of external business.We believe this kind of win-win cooperation can replace the idea of zero-sum game, and generate greater value in the global business market. Today we have joined hands to set up a new citrussTV.For citrussTV, I am full of boundless hope and longing for its future.I believe citrussTV can develop into a great company, which is based on several aspects. First of all, television is a well-developed media in the Middle East. Due to the weather and culture, people in the Middle East spend a lot of time watching TV. Statistics show that the average time spent watching TV here is among the highest in the world, which creates good media environment and audience base for the TV shopping business. TV shopping as a retail model, it can efficiently cover nearly all families and broader population via the satellite, the Internet, and the mobile devices. We could conclude that in the Middle East, TV shopping is a more influential and extensive retail channel than online shopping and in-store shopping in the Middle East. It implies great value and potential. Secondly, for the growing consumer demand in the Middle East, the economic environment is getting better, so consumers need to buy more quality goods, and the provision of high-quality goods is the biggest advantage of TV shopping.Because of TV shopping’s convenience of new products launching, it is quite easy to introduce new products on TV. Therefore, innovative and fashionable are the characteristics of TV shopping products. Meanwhile, TV shopping can create big sales for a particular product.So, TV shopping companies have stronger pricing power to provide consumers with high quality products with competitive prices.Attractive price with high quality is also the synonym of TV shopping.citrussTV Merchandisers will maximize their resources and networks to enhance the selection of high-quality products globally for consumers in the Middle East and North Africa, and that is the second aspect. Thirdly, as a TV shopping company, citrussTV will provide more household products.Although the cultural backgrounds between the East and West are different, the care to family is the same. To create a happy and harmonious family is our common pursuit.We hope that every product sold by citrussTV will become a way for family members to communicate with each other.We not only sell products, but also spread a more harmonious family life-style, so that the quality products can become the source of family vitality. I believe, “spreading love" not only reflects the corporate value of citrussTV, but also that of modern commercial civilization. For citrussTV, we will not only strengthen our advantages on TV.At the same time, we also need to strengthen our advantages on mobiles, especially the mobile videos.We will build an excellent mobile video E-commerce platform in the Middle East region as soon as possible, to serve our massive consumers.We hope that in five years, citrussTV can become the most influential media retail group in the Middle East and a publicly listed company.I have great confidence in realizing this goal. Certainly, the realization of the goal requires a lot of factors.The most important factor is the team, i.e. people.GHS is not only one of the fastest growing company, but also the most excellent TV shopping companies in China. In GHS, there is a spirit we called shark spirit, which I would like to share with you here.Because sharks have several characteristics. First, sharks are probably the strongest sea creatures and the creatures who are in the top of the food chain.But sharks are the only kind of fishes covered with cartilage. Sharks do not have a tough bone, because the cartilage makes sharks more coordinated, which makes it the strongest creature.This is very much like an enterprise, we have to adapt to the changing environment. The enterprise which can adapt the environment well would develop fast. Secondly, the most powerful weapon of sharks is their teeth. Everyone knows shark's teeth, but what we don't know is that sharks have to change 30,000 teeth in their lifetime, to keep themselves competitive through the constant replacement of their teeth.This is also similar for an enterprise. Learning is like the teeth of the enterprise. We need constantly learning and upgrading to adapt the market competition. Thirdly, Sharks have no swim bladders.Ordinary fishes have swim bladders to remain at a uniform depth in the water. Sharks have no swim bladders, so they must constantly swim or they'll sink and die.This tells us that the strong enterprises all must keep on working hardly.From another point of view, the stronger enterprises need to work harder.The shark spirit inspires everyone in GHS. It is my great honor that I become a member of citrussTV through our cooperation. The team of citrussTV used to have employees from 18 countries, but now the number increases to 19 because of me. So we are a truly international team. citrussTV 's staff is very open, innovative, also having enterprising spirit, that is why the GHS chose to cooperate with citrussTV.Therefore, the team of citrussTV is a team full of shark spirit, with dreams and persistence, keeping leaning and moving fast. With such a great team, we have infinite confidence to achieve our targets in the future. Whether the ancient Silk Road, or today's "Belt and Road Initiative”, we have never stopped mutual communications and exchanges in the past thousands of years.For the cooperation between GHS and citrussTV, what is more significant is that we did not fall in to the fierce competition of the zero-sum game, but we choose to work together to achieve a win-win situation.I believe, this win-win road will lead citrussTV to provide customers in the Middle East with ideal life experience and become a great and respectful company. We can’t achieve success without your supports in this cooperation process.I hope that all of you can give citrussTV more supports and more care.We sincerely hope than we can work together in the future to realize the prosperity in unity! Thank you very much!

On May 29, 2017, China (Beijing) E-commerce Conference 2017 co-hosted by Beijing Municipal Commission of Commerce and Beijing Daily Newspaper Group was officially opened at the China National Convention Center in Beijing. Relevant government departments and domestic and foreign e-commerce industry elites such as the Ministry of Commerce, CECA, Alibaba, Jingdong and Mobike, emerging entrepreneurs, and industry experts participated in the conference, and discussed about hot issues such as shared service, retail transformation and technology drive. Amy Yu, CEO of GHS E-commerce, China’s first mobile video e-commerce platform, was invited to attend the conference. In her speech titled “How Does Video Shopping Match with the Internet” at the “New Energy - Star of the Future” Summit, she shared the innovative business models in the field of mobile video shopping. China (Beijing) E-commerce Conference 2017 held in Beijing How does mobile video shopping match with the Internet? GHS puts forward a solution It is known that, as a leading full-media retail platform in China, GHS is positioned as Global Home Supplies Sale Mall. Through the GHS nationwide channel, excellent mobile video shopping APP and smart TVs, and exquisite shopping magazines, GHS strictly selects high-quality home supplies throughout the world for hundreds of millions of families, and provides an ideal life experience. “Mobile video shopping is by no means simply adding video with shopping,” said Amy Yu. “The most important thing is how to match mobile video shopping with the Internet. It should be a kind of videoized and scenarized video experience economy that can be shared.” She talked about the innovative business models of GHS in her speech titled “How Does Video Shopping Match with the Internet”. GHS E-commerce CEO Amy Yu gave a speech titled “How Does Video Shopping Match the Internet” Different from many mobile e-businesses, GHS takes video as the core, and uses vertical video, plain video and micro video to display the true properties of commodities. With all the core information of a commodity concentrated in a video of only a few seconds or 60 minutes, consumers can get to know the commodity in a clear and visual manner. The strict selection mechanism with buyer system as the center is the core competitiveness of GHS. GHS buyers carefully select high-quality commodities throughout the world, and consumers only need to know about the commodities via video, and make decisions by selecting the best. “In an era of surplus consumer products, selection has become a kind of cost and even burden rather than benefit. Our buyers will stand in the consumers’ position and select commodities meeting their needs, so as to help them make better selections, save more time, and create time value for them,” said Amy Yu in her speech. Being a shark in attack, GHS creates a new shark IP Since the brand upgrade, GHS has selected shark as its new image, and vigorously promoted and built the shark IP. In fact, many consumers are initially attracted by the purple color and shark icon of GHS, and the use of elements and brand IP forms GHS’ brand differentiation. “Brand IP building is a long-term process. By adhering to the use of purple elements and shark image, we have increasingly impressed consumers. It can be said that consumers have largely formed the cognition that purple shark is equal to GHS,” said Amy Yu. GHS E-commerce CEO Amy Yu interpreted the “shark spirit” in her speech As for the reason why shark is selected as the brand image, Amy Yu explained, “First, it has cartilage all over its body, so it has strong environmental adaptability and overall coordination capability; second, it changes 30,000 teeth in its lifetime, thus guaranteeing strong core competitiveness; third, it doesn’t have a swim bladder, so it has to keep swimming in its lifetime to avoid sinking. What we want to learn are precisely the capability of constantly adapting to the environment, the capability of persistently learning to maintain the core competitiveness, and the spirit of continuous exploring. Only by doing so can an excellent enterprise keep developing.” The interview with GHS E-commerce CEO Amy Yu Since its debut in 2011, China (Beijing) E-commerce Conference has become one of the most influential annual events in the e-commerce field in China. In addition to the main forum, there are another five parallel sessions, and over 100 guests have been invited to share their experience from five perspectives, i.e. new energy, new service, new ecology, new technology and new business. As a leading full-media retail platform in China, GHS was favored and invited by the conference. It is reported that GHS APP was officially released last June, and became a cutting-edge product in the mobile e-commerce field in less than a year. According to Analysys’ monitoring data, in 2017, GHS APP ranked TOP 100 in tier 1 field - mobile shopping, and TOP 50 in tier 2 field - integrated e-business.
On the afternoon of May 25, 2017, GHS Beijing Marathon kicked off at Olympic Forest Park. Hundreds of running enthusiasts from all walks of life enjoyed the fun of running regardless of the hot weather. With a total distance of 10 km, the race was hosted by Global Home Shopping (GHS), a leading full-media retail platform in China. Themed with “Be a Shark in Attack”, the event intends to encourage all the players to challenge themselves and bravely move forward. GHS Beijing Marathon kicked off at Olympic Forest Park GHS’ competition in the retail industry is just like running a marathon As a leading full-media retail platform in China, GHS is positioned as Global Home Supplies Sale Mall. Through the GHS channel covering the whole country, excellent mobile video shopping APP and smart TVs, and exquisite shopping magazines, GHS strictly selects high-quality home supplies throughout the world for hundreds of millions of families, and provides an ideal life experience. It can be said that GHS provides consumers pursuing quality with not only home supplies meeting living needs, but also a better way of life. Running has been gradually sought by people of all ages and both sexes in recent years, and even marathon has been popularized in China overnight, becoming a new fashion of exercise and fitness. “The global home supplies provided by GHS can improve the life quality of consumers, just like the positive changes brought about by running to people. We hope that this event can pass the high-quality life attitude to more people,” said Jason Kong, President of GHS at the launching ceremony of GHS Beijing Marathon. GHS president Jason Kong gave a speech at the launching ceremony of GHS Beijing Marathon Speaking of this marathon, Jason Kong believed that the key to winning is not the instantaneous outbreak but the persistence on the way. “The B2C industry where GHS is in is a service industry in essence. Service is actually a long-term process, just like running a marathon, and the most needed is the down-to-earth persistence.” According to the White Paper on TV Shopping Industry of China 2016 released this February, the year 2016 was an important turning point for the TV shopping industry, with total sales declining for the first time. In spite of this, the GHS channel covering the whole country maintained a stable growth rate, and the video shopping APP also performed well. In the TOP List of Integrated E-business of Mobile Shopping released by Analysys at the beginning of the year, GHS APP ranked TOP 50, only less than one year after the release of the APP. Such an achievement is attributable to GHS’ adherence to its positioning - Global Home Supplies Sale Mall, as well as its high-standard service - free changing or refunding within 30 days. Being sharks in attack, all players run for the championship GHS Beijing Marathon officially started when the whistle sounded During the marathon, hundreds of running lovers from all walks of life gathered at Olympic Forest Park, the “running sanctuary in the capital”, and many Beijing citizens also participated in it enthusiastically. After fierce competition, the championship of “2017 Be a Shark in Attack - GHS Beijing Marathon” was won by Liu Fengcheng with a result of 57’8”, followed by Dong Feifei (57’24”) and Huo Xueliang (61’13”). Xie Lili won the women’s championship with a result of 62’34”, and almost all the players finished the full distance. “I once ran 10 km, but this is my first time to get the first place!” said the champion Liu Fengcheng excitedly. “Of course, I felt very uncomfortable when I was running the first several kilometers, but I persisted! I have a sense of accomplishment!” The top three places of GHS Beijing Marathon Marathon is a test of a person’s will, and if a person loves running and is very interested in marathon, this to a large extent indicates that he/she has strong concentration and perseverance, according to the person in charge of the event. “So we also organized some of our staff members at Beijing headquarters to participate in the event, hoping to enhance their awareness of creating an ideal life experience for our customers.”
On May 12, 2017. The 3rd Positioning China Summit and Ries Categoring Strategy 10th Anniversary Forum was held in Shanghai. Al Ries, a legendary marketing master and the father of the positioning theory, and Laura Ries, the successor of the theory, were present at the scene to comprehensively display ten years of consulting achievements of the positioning theory for the first time. GHS president Jason Kong was also invited as the only guest speaker from China’s TV shopping industry to share his practical experience in the positioning theory with Al Ries and his daughter Laura Ries, as well as Zhang Yun, general manager of Ries China, and entrepreneurs from domestic first-class enterprises such as Great Wall Motor, Robam and Jinmailang. How do retail platform brands achieve differentiation innovation? GHS insists on category focus “Many years ago I wrote a book titled Profit Models of Media which discusses three major profit models of media: advertising profit model, content profit model and channel profit model. Of them, channel profit model is a TV shopping-based media retail form which fully integrates media, vehicle and sales, influences cognition, plays the guiding role, and leads to sales,” said Jason Kong in the explanation of TV shopping retail form. “That is, at the beginning of a GHS program, you don’t have the idea of buying a juicer, and it is the recommendations of the shopping experts that trigger your desire to buy it. Vehicle plus media and shelf plus sales generate real-time purchase, which gives birth to the strong vitality of TV shopping-based media retail. It is a model that creates consumer demands.” Now, in addition to cable TV shopping channels covering the whole country, GHS is also carrying out retail business through mobile video APP, smart TV screen, etc. In fact, most consumers are attracted by the purple logo of GHS before having a deep understanding of the brand, and this is one of its visual hammers that make GHS stand out of many TV shopping enterprises. Jason Kong said that after years of insistence, the vast majority of consumers on the platform had formed the cognition of “GHS equals to purple, and purple is GHS”. In 2017, in line with the evolution trend from TV shopping to video shopping and the internationalization strategy of going overseas, GHS launched a new brand – 聚鲨商城(also could be called GHS), and vigorously promoted the new visual hammer “shark”. “Because of this purple shark, consumers are more impressed with us,” said him. Why do we select shark? Jason Kong said that, “Shark is not only the brand image of our company, but also our spiritual totem. What is the spirit of shark? Firstly, it has cartilage all over its body, so it has strong environmental adaptability and overall coordination capability; secondly, it changes 30,000 teeth in its lifetime, thus guaranteeing strong core competitiveness; thirdly, it doesn’t have a swim bladder, so it has to keep swimming in its lifetime to avoid sinking. What we want to learn are precisely the capability of keeping adapting to the environment, the capability of keeping learning to maintain the core competitiveness, and the spirit of keeping exploring. Only by doing so can an excellent enterprise keep developing. GHS president Jason Kong makes a keynote speech titled How to Achieve Success by Continuously Applying the Positioning Theory What are the experience and benefits of applying the positioning theory? Jason Kong shared his practical experience. The reason why Jason Kong chose TV shopping as his business direction and has been insisting on it is that he has been confident in the TV shopping industry. At the forum “Witness the Power of Category”, Jason Kong said that television is still the No.1 media in the world, and the problem of Chinese television lies in the institution behind traditional Chinese media rather than media form. Therefore, he has always had a high degree of confidence in TV media forms and TV shopping industry. “GHS is one of the TV shopping channels with the highest coverage in China, and our audience rating even exceeds some traditional satellite channels in many provinces and cities. This platform has a very large market potential,” said Jason Kong at the forum. It is reported that in the field of TV shopping, the United States, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and other countries and regions all have an enterprise mainly doing TV shopping business among the top five enterprises in the B2C industry, which means that China’s TV shopping industry has a great room for development. According to Jason Kong, GHS will keep promoting TV shopping, and expand Central Asia, Africa, Southeast Asia and other overseas markets along the One Belt and One Road, with the goal of becoming stronger and bigger. “China’s TV shopping industry was controversial in the history. We hope that through our own efforts, we can change people’s traditional impression of TV shopping. GHS is not only initiating but also restructuring an industry, and we hope to be a leader in the industry,” said Jason Kong. “All our goods are purchased throughout the world by buyers, and they are selected from thousands or even tens of thousands of goods via comparison,” explained Jason Kong. Meanwhile, the huge sales of individual products also lead to a strong bargaining power. The logic behind the concept of “home” is adhering to the family culture. Chinese people attach importance to family, and the main culture of television is living room culture. For GHS, the main consumer groups pursue high quality of life, so GHS not only provides products meeting the needs of consumers, but also creates a family culture and leads a way of life. “Given the surplus consumer products in China, what we lack are not products, but products that upgrade the consumption,” emphasized Jason Kong. Since determining the position of “Global Home Supplies Sale Mall”, GHS has been making strategic adjustment according to the market environment and its own degree of development. Through positioning and focusing, GHS has achieved rapid development, and become the enterprise with the highest growth rate in China’s TV shopping industry. As an entrepreneur who has achieved success by continuously applying the positioning theory, GHS president Jason Kong believed that, “Positioning is not only a business issue, but also an entrepreneurial philosophy, and even involves view of life and lifestyle.” It is said that, as a global brand theory experiencing decades of vicissitudes, the positioning theory has served more than 75% of the world’s Fortune Global 500 companies, and become the strategic concept with the greatest influence on Chinese enterprises. At present, recommended by Ries China, a number of domestic enterprises including GHS, Great Wall Motor, Robam and Jinmailang have implemented the category focus strategy and achieved significant growth.
Everyone fears the unknown. They hesitate when taking a new post. But the unknown is not only worrying but also exciting. “Capital is very different from traditional TV in operation, and I have been busy learning it recently.” One day at the beginning of December 2012, in the office of China Media Capital (CMC) located in LG Twin Towers, Jianguomenwai Street, Beijing, Jason Kong seemed slightly tired as he had just got back from his business trip to the United States. He said that he had been reset and excitedly studying since he took up the post of managing director of CMC in September 2012. Nearly six months before, he submitted his resignation from deputy director of Guizhou TV Station, chairman of Guizhou TV Culture Media Co., Ltd., and chairman and president of Jia You Home Shopping Group. Changing the track In June 2012, Jason Kong put a seven-page handwritten resignation letter on the table of Bai Fangqin, director of Guizhou Radio and TV Station. At that time, the national civil service examination registration was being carried out fiercely, and the whole society regarded stability as the standard of a good job. Jason Kong’s resignation shocked the whole industry. Many people’s first feeling was pity, shock or admiration, but more of puzzlement. “There were many guesses. For example, I had trouble with my leaders, my promotion channel was blocked, or the inner relationship was not good.” There were short messages and calls for inquiry one after another, and Jason Kong could only explain the reason. “None of these was true. The provincial and TV station leaders were all very nice to me, and my registration indeed involved my understanding of the platform and the personal pursuit for the future lifestyle.” “Four Batches” Talent of the Central Propaganda Department, member of All-China Youth Federation, National Top 100 Theoretical Workers, advertising leader in China, National Advanced Worker, senior editor, senior economist… during the 16 years in the TV station, Jason Kong won a number of honors. Why did he resign in spite of the smooth career? Jason Kong said, “In my heart, I always tell myself, I should pursue an extraordinary life.” From joining Guizhou TV Station in 1996 to resigning in June 2012, Jason Kong worked there for 16 years. During this period, Jason Kong kept leaping in his career. In July 1996, the 21-year-old Jason Kong graduated from Automatic Control Department of Southeast University, and joined Broadcast Department of Guizhou TV Station, where his main work was arranging and broadcasting programs. Then in October 1998, after several rounds of selection, Jason Kong was recommended as one of the members of the leadership team of Guizhou Informatization Expert Committee. All the other 18 members of the team were either university principals or chief engineers, so the 23-year-old Jason Kong became the youngest “informatization expert of Guizhou”. The word “youngest” has formed ties with him ever since In 1998, Jason Kong left Broadcast Department, and started to fight in the advertising market. From 1998 to 2004, Jason Kong successively served as deputy general manager, chairman /general manager of Guizhou Tianma Advertisement Company, a subordinate advertising company of Guizhou TV Station, and held concurrent posts of deputy director of Advertising Department and deputy director of Editor Office of Guizhou TV Station. During this period, Tianma developed from a small company with only more than ten employees and an annual turnover of less than 1 million yuan to a first-class advertising enterprise in China with more than 100 employees and an annual turnover of over 200 million yuan. In 2004, the 29-year-old Jason Kong took up the post of director of Advertising Department of Guizhou TV Station, becoming the youngest advertising department director among provincial TV stations in China. In 2005, Jason Kong who had just turned 30 took up the post of assistant of director of Guizhou TV Station, and held concurrent posts of director of Advertising Department of Guizhou TV Station and chairman of Guizhou Tianma Advertisement Company, responsible for advertising, programs, arrangement, coverage, pay TV, film and television channel, public life channel, etc. The marketing work of Guizhou TV Station was influential throughout the country. In 2007, Jason Kong led the inter-provincial cooperation between Guizhou TV Station and Gansu Radio, Film and TV Station. “Guizhou-Gansu Cooperation” pioneered in cross-regional cooperation between provincial TV stations in China, and was listed in the “60 events in 60 years” of China’s radio and television industry. During this period, the program rating and advertising revenue of Gansu Radio, Film and TV Station more than tripled, and Guizhou TV Station’s investment also made a lucrative return. In 2009, the 34-year-old Jason Kong became deputy director of Guizhou TV Station, the youngest deputy director of provincial TV station in China. In the first half of 2012, Guizhou TV Station and Guizhou People’s Broadcasting Station were merged into Guizhou Radio and TV Station. When Jason Kong had passed promotion examination and service inspection, and the appointment of him to a deputy department level post was to be announced, he made this decision which was described as “shock” by many people, and resigned from deputy director of Guizhou TV Station and all other related posts. After giving up the identity of national cadre, he entered another new platform and industry - China Media Capital, and took up the post of managing director. A Brandnew track Founded in April 2009 with a scale of 5 billion yuan, CMC was the first cultural industry private equity fund filed in the National Development and Reform Commission. The main initiators and investors included China Development Bank, CMCDI, SMG, etc. Li Ruigang serves as chairman. Li Ruigang’s purpose was not just setting up an investment fund. He believed that China’s cultural and media industry needed to speed up the search for an investment and financing pathway in line with China’s national conditions, and substantially increase industrial development through docking with financial tools and capital market. “Today, the value of China’s media assets is significantly underestimated, and only the capital market can find all its intrinsic value and market potential,” said Li Ruigang in a media interview. “I have worked in SMG for nearly ten years, and I have neither exerted all my efforts nor applied all my ideas. During my one year of work in the government, I was educated a lot. Now I’m re-positioning myself, and considering following a new road different from traditional media, doing something different, and jumping out of some institutional and geographical limits.” Within a few years following its founding, CMC took several actions in the cultural industry, repeatedly becoming the focus of the media: it invested in China’s largest TV shopping company - Oriental TV Shopping, with sales reaching 7 billion yuan in 2011; co-founded Oriental DreamWorks, a global home entertainment company with DreamWorks of the United States, made international animation films emnodying Chinese cultural elements, and built Dream Center, a large-scale urban cultural gathering area on the bank of Huangpu River in Shanghai; invested to hold Star TV, formerly wholly owned by News Corporation, Channel V, and Fortune Star, the world’s largest Chinese film library, and co-founded Star China Media with News Corporation. Canxing Production, a subordinate of Star China Media, introduced and created Let's Shake It, China’s Got Talent, as well as The Voice of China, the stun in 2012. What Li Ruigang did moved Jason Kong. At the beginning of 2012, Jason Kong called Li Ruigang and invited him for a chat. Before this, since Jason Kong successfully drove the Guizhou-Gansu Cooperation, he was entrusted by Li Ruigang to mediate between some television stations during SMG’s external cooperation. Li Ruigang’s first words to Jason Kong were “Do you want to change your job?” One wanted to realize his dream, and the other was seeking talents with eagerness. After the meeting, Jason Kong made up his mind to resign. “I have some dreams after all.” In Jason Kong’s view, although China has been the world’s second largest economy, the cultural industry of the whole country is not as big as the News Corporation. From this point of view, there should be many opportunities in the future. And seen from the current situation, to make the cultural industry stronger and bigger, what CMC is doing should be a direction. “I told Li Ruigang that it might be difficult for me to lead such an undertaking, but if I had the honor to participate in this process, it was a very good experience for me.” A heart of bungee jumping inside the gentle appearance Wei Wenkai, R&D director of Gansu Radio and TV Station who had worked with Jason Kong during the Guizhou-Gansu Cooperation was not surprised at his resignation. “I was not surprised at all when hearing that he had resigned and joined CMC. Although he was doing traditional TV work, I felt he was not a routineer. He not only has his own normative knowledge base, but also is extraordinarily courageous and non-stereotypical. People familiar with Jason Kong all know that he likes playing football, and those who are closer to him know that he also loves bungee jumping. “I have played bungee jumping for several times, and it is very exciting,” said Jason Kong. He has often seen people too scared to jump, and he is also afraid when standing on the bungee jumping platform. “Although I know there is no danger, fear is an instinct, and every time I will jump finally.” “Everyone fears the unknown,” said Jason Kong. “They hesitate when taking a new post. But the unknown is not only worrying but also exciting.” When Jason Kong shifted from Broadcast Department to Advertising Department in 1998, he didn’t hesitate as well. “At that time, Broadcast Department had some advertising resources, and I who had just graduated from university soon became the sales core of the resources.” Interested in advertising business, Jason Kong accepted the invitation of writing management software for Advertising Department. After getting familiar with the work, he also helped design activity programs or evening party scripts. As a result, he got the appreciation by Bai Fangqin, the then director of Advertising Department, who mobilized Jason Kong to transfer to Advertising Department. Finally, Jason Kong refused the attractive conditions provided by the deputy director of Broadcast Department, such as “promotion to section level if staying in Broadcast Department”, and joined Advertising Department, completing his first transition in workplace. Guizhou is an economically underdeveloped area with relatively less resources, so outward expansion becomes inevitable. In June 2007, Ningxia Satellite TV and Gansu Satellite TV were ordered by the SARFT to stop broadcasting commercial advertisements because of their incompliant broadcast of medical information service and TV shopping programs. Jason Kong sensitively felt that this was an opportunity. “At that time, the leaders of Gansu TV Station were investigating in Guizhou, so we initially contacted with them, and finally realized the strategic cooperation between the two sides through efforts.” In September 2007, Guizhou TV Station and Gansu Radio and TV Station started the attempt of cross-regional cooperation. The two sides co-founded Lanzhou Zhicheng Tonghui Culture Communication Co., Ltd. for the advertising operation of Gansu Satellite TV (Gansu terrestrial channels were also included later). Now that the cooperation had started, who did the work? By then, Jason Kong had been assistant of director of Guizhou TV Station, and all the work he was taking charge of went smoothly. Someone advised Jason Kong not to act rashly, because cooperation was always risky, and any failure would affect his official career; “if you hold your post in Guizhou TV Station and meanwhile re-expand the market of Gansu Satellite TV, you may be exhausted by the hard work”. In spite of the discouragement by his friends, Jason Kong “went upstream” again. He led a team of ten people to go to Gansu and took up the post of executive director of Lanzhou Zhicheng Tonghui Culture Communication Co., Ltd. The same decisiveness also occurred in 2008. This year, a farsighted investor sought for TV shopping project cooperation with Guizhou TV Station. Under the recommendation of the investor, Guizhou TV Station set its foot in the media retail field. It applied the license for Jia You Home Shopping, a national professional shopping channel, becoming the fourth TV station owning a national shopping channel following CCTV, Hunan TV and Anhui TV. The newly-founded Jia You Home Shopping didn’t have a suitable operator, and its loss was more than expected. “At that time, the loss was not within our prediction; instead, we felt the loss couldn’t be made up, and was out of control,” said an employee of Jia You Home Shopping. “Everyone thought the company would soon be closed.” “There are few resources in Guizhou, and it will be a pity if this project fails,” said Jason Kong to Bai Fangqin and the investor leader. “Now that there is no proper president, let me do it.” At this time, there were also people advised, “You have already been deputy director of the TV station. You only need to do management work instead of rushing to the front. Your comfortable days will come, so why do you meddle with such matters?” However, Jason Kong disregarded others’ opinions and went to Beijing to serve as chairman and president of Jia You Home Shopping. Unfamiliar industry, immature market, multi-link industrial chain management, large numbers of service requirements, large losses... Jason Kong addressed all these problems with his slightly thin body. By 2012, Jia You Home Shopping has developed into one of the top three companies in the industry, achieving a sales volume of nearly 2 billion yuan and having more than 1,600 employees. Looking back on the16 years of work in the TV station, Jason Kong’s every major transformation seemed to be “going upstream”. As for these choices, Jason Kong said with a smile, “Maybe I lack a sense of security, so I have to keep doing something to prove myself.” My dad is a business traveler “My dad is a business traveler!” This is the description of Jason Kong’s work by his daughter in the kindergarten. Outsiders just regard this as a child’s innocent words, but Jason Kong’s wife Yu Ye often feels sad about this. “Every time my daughter asks ‘where is my dad?’ I say he is on a business trip. Then after a long time, she thinks his work is just going on business trips.” In Jason Kong’s work schedule, the most remarkable record is flying for more than 140 times a year, which means two business trips a week. “Our daughter had no idea about this when she was a kid, but as she grows up, she also misses his dad when she cannot see him often. Sometimes when Jason Kong comes back home, she holds him and crys, without saying anything.” While other people see the glamorous side of Jason Kong, his family members see more his hard work.” “It is very difficult for a man to balance work and family when he is very busy. If someone says he manages to do this, he usually puts family at another point of view. Especially under the status quo in China, most people make achievements by sacrificing their family,” said Jason Kong. Fortunately, his family particularly supports and understands him, and this drives his advancement. During the 16 years in Guizhou TV Station, Jason Kong only took an annual leave before his book Profit Models of Media was published in 2009. “Most manuscripts were written at nights and on planes, but I needed a continuous period of time for final compilation, so I had a week off.” The postscript of the book was written by Jason Kong on the plane from Guiyang to Beijing on October 10, 2009. In the Postscript, Jason Kong wrote: “For the publication of the book, I want to first thank my wife Yu Ye. It is her encouragement and support that make me always believe in and constantly challenge myself. In the eyes of his families, Jason Kong is a “flyer”. Then in the eyes of other people, what is Jason Kong like? Jason Kong looks like a frail scholar. He speaks softly, so it is difficult to relate him with those commonly seen eloquent advertisers. “He is very mild, and people rarely see him be impatient. In spite of his thin body, he is very explosive,” said Wei Wenkai. “Jason Kong never looks at manuscripts when he is giving lectures, and his thought is very clear. People can see from his body the power of media, knowledge and experience. Superman, Wonder Baby, Monkey King, Black Cat Detective, Popeye, Doraemon, Lodge - these are the answers given by Jason Kong’s colleagues in Guizhou TV Station. In the eyes of his subordinates, Jason Kong has both high IQ and EQ, always pushing himself forward to solve crisis at crucial moments, like a responsible big brother. Jason Kong is full of talent. He wrote lyrics for The Song of Tianma - Commitment of Wisdom, The Ideal, and The Home of Love. The three songs have been sung by the employees of Tianma Company, Advertising Department of Guizhou TV Station and Jia You Home Shopping. Although with a technology background, Jason Kong did a good job in TV advertising business for over ten years. After getting familiar with television coverage, channel operation, marketing and other television operating rules, he transferred to the e-commerce market and entered the media retail field. Interested in capital market, he spared time to study in School of Economics of Peking University and Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business, and published during the period Profit Models of Media, which is regarded by the industry as the first book revealing the key to media operation success. From technical expert to advertiser, media worker, enterprise operator, and to the youngest deputy director of provincial TV station, Jason Kong changed multiple roles in just more than ten years, and wonderfully performed each of them. Now, he has changed his role again out of his dream. “I don’t have any desire for power. For me power is only a tool facilitating work,” said Jason Kong. “If not particularly necessary, I basically go on business trips by my own.” This is very similar to Li Ruigang. Reporter has encountered Li Ruigang reporting work in the SARFT building for two times, and saw him walking alone, without anyone closely following him. “There are more limits in the system. People with capabilities are definitely unwilling to walk on the shore; instead, they will jump into the sea to fight.” In the eyes of Wei Wenkai, Jason Kong is open-minded and forward-looking, and is suitable for marketized environment. “His resignation is beneficial to the human resource marketization and further resource allocation in China’s media industry. N possibilities of life - Q&A of Jason Kong China Radio, Film & TV: Did you already have any life plan when you graduated from university? Jason Kong: No special plan. Many things occur naturally. China Radio, Film & TV: Why did you resign when having a smooth and rising official career? Jason Kong: The higher I was in the system, the more difficult my resignation would make my leaders. If I had stayed there for another two or three years, I would have been unable to leave (laugh). China Radio, Film & TV: Did you resign for higher income? Jason Kong: Income is certainly very important for me, but compared with income, I pay more attention to the platform, the people I work with and the things I do. China Radio, Film & TV: If you hadn’t met Li Ruigang, would you still have shifted to investment? Jason Kong: Li is a reformist, so I thought he could make some achievements. If I hadn’t meet Li Ruigang, I might not have resigned firmly, but I think I would still have sought for other changes. China Radio, Film & TV: A few years ago you studied investment and EMBA courses in Peking University and Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business, so were you already prepared for marketization then? Jason Kong: No, I was just interested in them. China Radio, Film & TV: I heard that you are particularly willing to give employees high income, aren’t you? Jason Kong: Working with me is more tiring, but the income can be significantly improved. If I increase everyone’s income and make them live happier, they can get balanced no matter how hard the work is. China Radio, Film & TV: Seen from the present condition, each of your choices has been right, so where is such a good intuition from? Jason Kong: Although all my steps before were right, the current step is still unknown (laughter). It is related to my character. Maybe I’m more sensitive. As for me, right choices depend on whether you can do a good job, whether you have strong communication skills, and whether people around you accept you and are willing to help you. These are very critical. China Radio, Film & TV: Have you ever thought of failure? Jason Kong: There are many unknown things in life. We should never automatically regard what we get today or what we haven’t got yet as our own. In my opinion, process is more important than result. Something seemingly important to others may not be that important to us, and many gains were actually not expected before. As for me, the life actively selected by me is a happy life. China Radio, Film & TV: Is your future direction founding your own company? Jason Kong: I haven’t thought about this. China Radio, Film & TV: One bungee jumping is enough. Why did you play it for several times? Jason Kong: I just wanted to see if I would be afraid the next time. China Radio, Film & TV: Resigning from public office is a big matter. How did you convince your parents? Jason Kong: They don’t interfere with my decision. I told them it was not a big deal, and I could at least make a living by setting up an advertising company. China Radio, Film & TV: Are you a good husband and good father? Jason Kong: You should ask my wife (laugh). From the viewpoint of family, she has sacrificed a lot.

March 1, 2017, Beijing-Thailand's largest TV shopping operator TVD and domestic all-media retail enterprise GHS signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) in Beijing, formally establishing a strategic partnership. In the future, the two sides will carry out long-term in-depth cooperation in the integration of commodity resources, market development and personnel exchanges, etc. based on the MoU. GHS and TVD sign an MoU in Beijing, establishing a strategic partnership. It's learned that TVD is Thailand's largest TV shopping company, founded in 1999, and successfully listed in 2012. TVD provides a diverse shopping experience for Thai consumers through service channels including TV, e-commerce, telephone marketing, social media, merchandise catalogs and stores, and generated sales of more than 3.4 billion baht in 2016. GHS, China’s leading all-media retail platform, has positioned itself as "a provider of global home products at a favorable price" and has quickly grown into a benchmarking enterprise of China’s TV shopping industry in less than 4 years through differentiated products, programs and brand strategies. Before signing the MoU, the two sides held a talk on the implementation of the MoU and other related matters. GHS’ president Kong Jiong welcomed the TVD delegation led by its CEO Songpol Shanmatkit and said, "With the Belt and Road Initiative, economic activities between China and Thailand have become increasingly active.

Beijing Feb 17, 2017 ——Under the guidance of State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television and Ministry of Commerce of the People’s Republic of China, the 2016 annual conference of China’s TV shopping industry themed “Quick Action, Universal Quality” was hosted by China Home Shopping Alliance and held by Global Home Shopping (GHS) in Beijing. Staff from more than 30 domestic TV shopping channels, various TV shopping partners and experts came to Beijing to communicate their up-to-date ideas in respect of the media retail industry with each other. At the awards ceremony held in the afternoon, GHS received many rewards including the gold award for national channel special program, award for excellent visual packaging, and award for innovative marketing. The 2016 annual conference of China’s TV shopping industry was held in Beijing. Leading figures in the industry gathered together. Industrial reformer GHS ranking the top in the industry in enterprise and APP growth rates In countries like America and South Korea, TV shopping is not only a key media retail industry competitive with B2C, but also a national strategic core that plays an important role in stimulating consumption market and improving industrial chains. On the contrary, the value of China’s counterpart hasn’t been tapped yet, and the industry is also facing big challenges. As e-commerce and the real economy continuously converges, many TV shopping companies have sought to transform and change by way of product upgrading and media convergence. In the last year, GHS took the lead in entering the intelligent large screen TV shopping sector and expanded its channels through media convergence, forming an omnimedia layout. Currently, GHS has obtained more than 70% of the market share in intelligent large screen sector and established a closed-loop eco-system for mobile video shopping platforms. GHS App ranked the 2nd in TV shopping industry in the list of 2016 active e-commerce APPs, according to data issued by Analysys. As a rising young company in TV shopping industry, it cost GHS only less than 4 years to develop into a level that may cost others a decade, and its enterprise and APP growth rates have ranked top in the industry. When asked about how could people reform the industry and make breakthroughs in the future, Jason Kong, the chairman of GHS said, “To solve bottlenecks and to transform and upgrade, it’s necessary for the industry to transform from non-mainstream to mainstream. And to do so, the industry should focus on the market and practice under the guidance of innovation.” Jason Kong, the chairman of GHS, is giving a speech themed “From Non-mainstream to Mainstream: China’s Media Retail Industry’s Road to Rise” GHS received many awards at the 2016 industrial awards ceremony In the afternoon of Feb 17, the 2016 annual conference of China’s TV shopping industry was held and gave out 13 categories of awards including awards for national channel special program, excellent visual packaging, innovative marketing, excellent vendor and excellent logistics carriers. GHS (rightmost) received the gold award for national channel special program These awards were assessed in the last November. Members of China Home Shopping Alliance submitted more than 400 pieces of materials applying for the awards and over 100 of them were awarded. Finally, GHS was given the award for national channel special program, award for visual packaging and other awards, becoming the biggest winner in the ceremony. When interviewed, a member of the assessment committee of 2016 China’s TV shopping industry awards said, “We found that GHS has tried many things in brand differentiation and program innovation according to the materials submitted by them. In a way, they’ve set a benchmark for the industry.” Meanwhile, the 2016 China’s TV Shopping Industry White Paper and the Investigation Report on TV Shopping Consumers were issued in the ceremony. The former stated that in 2016, the industry’s total sales accounted for less than 1% in total retail sales of consumer goods, demonstrating the industry still has a long way to go compared with mature overseas markets. The latter showed that consumers’ recognition on TV shopping has changed and most of them think TV shopping is close to life, affordable and reliable. This change has greatly helped the industry rebuild its image and confidence.
Beijing Feb 17, 2017, the 2016 annual conference of China’s TV shopping industry themed “Quick Action, Eternal Pursuit of Quality” was held in Beijing and staff from more than 30 domestic TV shopping channels, various TV shopping partners and experts attended the ceremony. Mr. Jason Kong, chairman of GHS, delivered a speech titled “From Non-mainstream to Mainstream, China’s Media Retail Industry’s Road to Rise” and gave his own views on several issues with respect to industrial development. The following contents are summarized according to the speech. Jason Kong, the chairman of GHS, is delivering a speech titled “From Non-mainstream to Mainstream: China’s Media Retail Industry’s Road to Rise” I was accidentally engaged in TV shopping in 1998 when I was in charge of advertisement operation and management and contacted with some TV shopping channels. In 2007, I was in charge of the application for Guizhou Jiayou TV shopping channel. In 2013, I established Global Home Shopping. In nearly two decades, I’ve accumulated much experience in media management and TV shopping operation. Today, I’d like to take this opportunity to share my views on TV shopping industry with you. 1. A Non-mainstream Role Across Media and Retail Industry What China’s TV shopping industry suffers most at its start-up stage is trust crisis. Thanks to excellent management of State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television and the industry’s self-regulation, this problem has been basically solved. TV shopping is a comprehensive industry format across media and retail industry. It is reasonable to think that traditional TV media industry’s development fundamentally determines the scale and development framework of TV shopping industry, and the retail industry’s entire environment determines its way to compete. First, from the perspective of China’s media industry, TV shopping is always depending on and to a certain degree restricted by the development of cable TV industry. Currently, according to various data, there are three trends facing TV media industry: first, growth rate of China’s cable TV-based ads drops significantly; second, TV viewership declines because new media transforms many traditional TV users to Internet and mobile Internet users; third, TV ads operating income shows the Matthew Effect since ads investment majorly concentrates on CCTV and several leading TV stations. These trends are unavoidable for TV industry who must face the reality directly: TV shopping industry, with TV as its core platform, is directly impacted by sluggish TV media industry and now faced with severe challenges. Second, from the perspective of China’s retail industry, TV shopping is in essence a retail industry and faced with intense online and offline competition. On the one hand, private retail enterprises developed quickly. In terms of operating income in the first half of 2016, 4 state-owned holding companies dropped in the list of top 10 department stores/shopping centers/supermarkets/brand chain stores, and were operated at or nearly at a loss, according to statistics. On the other hand, supported by the government’s policy of “deregulation” and “encouragement”, many online retailers have developed into retail giants within a decade by utilizing favorable policies with respect to capital, talents and tax preference. Tmall and JD.com altogether accounted for 78% of the market share in B2C online retail sector in 2016, maintaining their industrial giants status. Tmall even took 53.2% of the market share, ranking the first in the sector. Interestingly, most of the top 10 online retailers are foreign holding companies or companies with foreign shareholders. In such a highly free and competitive environment, TV shopping industry is in an inferior status and plays a non-mainstream role whether in capital, capability in attracting talents, scale, influence and channels or in international management experience. If the industry fails to conform to these trends and to transform and upgrade, it’ll continue shrinking. 2. The Domestic Industry Having the Potential and Strategic Value To Become Mainstream Format Compared With Foreign Counterparts Let’s go back to TV shopping. We are faced with severe challenges, but we are still striving in this industry. Why? Because we believe it’s a vital industry. Its vitality is shown in two aspects. First, potentials. We’re used to pre-judging if an industry can develop by comparing it to its foreign counterparts. By studying TV shopping industry in Taiwan and developed countries such as America and Korea, we can clearly figure out the industry’s development potentials. In these countries and regions, TV shopping not only competes with B2C giants as an active retail format, but also becomes a national strategy that plays a critical role in stimulating consumer market, vitalizing industrial chains and invigorating economy. America is the country where TV shopping originated first and forms the most mature industry. It’s one of the most profitable retail industry there. [A1] For example, QVC, a TV shopping retailer, acquired an operating income of more than 60 billion RMB in 2015, ranking the 5th in B2C industry and rivaling e-commerce and retail giants. In Asia, South Korea has the most active TV shopping industry. Its success is not only demonstrated in its nationwide prosperity and dynamism, but also reflected in the export of huge amounts of goods made in South Korea. GS SHOP, the country’s largest TV shopping company, acquired an operating income of approximately 20 billion RMB, ranking the 2nd in domestic B2C industry. There are 8 TV shopping companies in South Korea, promoting the industry to become the country’s national strategy. Many Korean products are exported via TV shopping. In Taiwan, China, MONO is the largest TV shopping company and the only listed TV shopping platform. At the same time, MONO is also the 2nd largest B2C enterprise in Taiwan by scale. The development of our counterparts indicates China’s TV shopping enterprise and industry still have huge potentials and many possibilities. Second, value. TV shopping industry has great internal value which originates from its capability in meeting demands of consumer market and society properly. 1)Value of Channels I once wrote a book called Profit Mode of Media. In the chapter of profit model of channels, I discussed the possibility of turning media into a channel to form a new profit model, which was also the format of media retail industry that focused on TV shopping. Retail industry has an advertisement-based logic: Persuade consumers and impress them with brands so that the brands may come into their mind when they make decisions. A “three times advertisement” theory is therefore generated, which means at least three times of exposure are needed to influence consumers’ recognition on products. For example, Crest’s advertisement for anti-decay toothpaste may not attract you to buy the commodity immediately, but may make you do so when you’re standing in front of a toothpaste shelf. This is the logic of advertisement: Meet consumers’ demand. Different from channels in traditional real economy and e-commerce, TV shopping, depending on media, can influence and guide consumers’ recognition and decisions to a large extent, thus becoming an effective sale channel for brands. The most powerful company is the one that creates demand and TV shopping retailers are the companies that can create miracles. Now, as online retail channels develop, upstream manufacturers are forced to lower their prices, which makes it hard to produce high-quality products and encourage fine craftsmanship because bad money drives out good. However, TV shopping platforms have sufficient time to introduce a good product with excellent functions to consumers in details, like why the product is good, what are the advantages and why it is set at such a high price. That’s an important reason why the unit price for TV shopping products is 5-10 times higher than Taobao. A perfect channel can enhance benign development of a country’s manufacturing industry. 2)Value of Options TV shopping industry is a platform that goes against trends. One of the major reasons for China’s emerging retail industry in recent years is the expansion of platforms. Billions of commodities are displayed in these platforms, providing consumers with many options. Other than technological development, another reason for Taobao’s rise is it provides consumers with many options and much space, which produces a great business model. Long ago, Super Voice Girls also provided normal audience with many options, making it extremely popular and gaining a high audience share. But when consumers face more options, these options may turn into costs instead of profits. Time for making decisions is increasingly precious, so consumers don’t want to spend more time in it. Therefore, simplifying your shopping options becomes more valuable. This mode happens to be a key competitive advantage for media retail industry with TV shopping as format, because it sells limited amount of the best goods that have gone through the buyer system and quality inspection system and are introduced via videos in details in order to help consumers make decisions. It is a service mode that consumers need in a new environment. 3)Value of Society As one of the retail channels linking supply and demand and boosting commodity circulation, TV shopping has profound social value. It focuses on potential consumption demand of Chinese families and middle class, and offers products that have been obviously upgraded for consumption and can stimulate domestic demand and promote consumption. The industry follows its principle of selecting fine products and refuses to compete at cut throat prices, thus ensuring the profitability of upstream enterprises, promoting upgrading and optimization of China’s manufacturers and accelerating innovation. TV shopping can support and provide medium- and small-sized enterprises who are restricted by enterprise scale and resources and have no rapid access to the market with an innovative platform for products and services. Meanwhile, it also concentrates on products that upgrade lifestyle. Selling products is also selling good family culture and life concepts. From consumption- and recognition-oriented perspectives, improving living quality of a family, the smallest unit in a society, will be conducive to family harmony. I’m convinced that a chance to fully develop TV shopping industry is coming. China is upgrading its consumption and one of its goals is to retain consumers that have excessive consumption capacity at home rather than force them to consume abroad. How to realize this goal? In fact, all of us understand the motive for consuming overseas: For better quality and sales service. Therefore, in supply-side reform, TV shopping should play as a better retail channel and help form a better manufacturing eco-system. The industry has sufficient capability and conditions in realizing this goal. That is also a key reason for South Korea to raise the industry’s status as a national strategy. Supply-side reform offers more potentials and opportunities to TV shopping industry, and the return of family culture also becomes an important endorsement of the industry’s development. A harmonious society needs to focus on family, and family-based consumption needs to be an important part in this society. In one’s home, a living hall is usually a must, so do TV sets. Then it comes an opportunity for TV shopping companies to provide consumers with services. The largest difference, on which the industry relies to realize this goal, between the industry and other retail channels is that the industry can sell some commodities that others can’t. Some domestic medium- and small-sized enterprises sell high-quality goods in Tmall and JD.com, but they just have poor sales because their products’ functions can’t be demonstrated through actual operation and comparison. TV shopping provides these commodities with a superb platform. 3. Driven by Market and Guided by Innovation, Transforming From Non-mainstream to Mainstream Let’s go back to TV shopping industry. To realize the industry’s transformation from non-mainstream to mainstream, the industry and its enterprises need to continuously explore and practice bottom up. Commodities are fundamental. In essence, retail is selling commodities. TV shopping’s most important service is to recommend gorgeous commodities to consumers. Commodities are the basis that we all survive on and the core to guarantee the rise of the industry. Program innovation. Programs are the core form of TV shopping and also one of the competitiveness that the industry needs to focus on in recent years. In this area, honesty is the most basic. Meanwhile, GHS also breaks TV shopping’s stereotype and creates new and fashionable programs. Upgrading customer service. In early stage, the industry was criticized for its poor service. But in recent years the service has been significantly improved. GHS is the only company that provides free return and refund service within 30 days in TV shopping industry in China. We have also pre-saved security deposit in Consumer’s Rights and Benefits Protection Departments of Administrations for Industry and Commerce in many places to meet consumers’ demand for return or exchange. Of course, we are worrying if extra pressure may be brought about due to consumers’ rising requirements for service. But after a period of test, we found the pressure is bearable. We are willing to bear more costs in order to provide good service because, I think, service is not a means, but our commitment to consumers. Channel expansion. In fact, China’s TVs have changed dramatically. The TV that we’re talking about is commonly called cable TV. As intelligent large screen devices and intelligent terminals popularize, it encourages more consumers to use not only TV sets but also other devices, and original TV industry’s pattern will definitely change. Hence, TV shopping should also break its channel restrictions. I think the industry is a media retail industry, so everything connected to consumers is worth a try. Since 2015, GHS has rolled out its arrangement in OTT TV. Now we have 50% of the market share in this sector. In 2016, GHS also established a mobile video e-commerce platform in mobile phone terminals and the platform’s activity level ranks the 72nd in all e-commerce Apps in China. Currently, GHS’ non-TV side sales revenue accounts for 27%, and is expected to exceed 35% this year. We hope in the next year, this proportion will be raised to be the same as the TV side sales revenue. It’s an important means of media convergence. Expansion in the globe. GHS oriented itself as a provider of “global off-price household goods”, so we strive to be an international TV shopping company. We also hope international household goods can be sold through our channels including TV sets, mobile phones and OTT. In 2017, we hope we can expand our business to the international market following the “One Belt, One Road” initiative. When we investigated the industry across the world, we found South Korea has completely occupied markets in South-East Asia. There are even 5 to 6 Korean TV shopping enterprises in regions like Vietnam and Thailand. By taking over these markets, South Korea succeeds in exporting large numbers of commodities to those countries, boosting its own economic growth. We have also studied many other overseas markets such as India and Russia, and we found all these countries have great potential. Therefore, we hope to expand our business to the globe first and cooperate with our foreign counterparts to establish a Chinese business platform for media retail and bring Chinese products to the world. 4. Shark Spirit GHS has “Shark Culture”. Shark is our spiritual totem. It may be strange and scary to Chinese, but as the strongest animal that lives at the top of the food chain, it has three characteristics that we need to learn. First, it has cartilage all over its body, which helps it adapt to environment and improves its overall coordination. Second, it changes 30,000 teeth in its lifetime, which inspires us to keep learning and stay competitive. Third, it doesn’t have a swim bladder, so it would sink if it doesn’t swim. A strong man needs to work harder. This is GHS’ corporate culture. We hope to work with partners who also have the shark spirit and become a world well-known media retailer. Finally, I hope, with our common efforts, a media retailer reaching 100 billion RMB in sales revenue can stand out in China’s TV industry, and becomes a new power rivaling Alibaba and JD.com and supporting the development of national retail industry. We also hope the government can provide this industry with more practice opportunities, and GHS is willing to be the pilot unit to play a valuable role in society and shoulder more social responsibilities.
On December 2016, domestic full-media retail platform GHS has passed the audit of CCCI, a world-famous certification authority, and obtained ISO/IEC 27001:2013 Information Security Management System Certificate, becoming one of the few media retail enterprises passing ISO27001 international certification in China. This indicates that GHS has owned a complete, sound information security management system. GHS passed ISO/IEC 27001:2013 Information Security Management System Certification It is reported that CCCI is one of the first certification authorities approved by CNASC, and the first to be approved by UKAS in Southeast Asia. The certification scope of GHS ISO27001 Information Security Management System includes related information security management system construction and information security technology application specifications supporting its TV shopping and e-commerce business. After nearly nine months of information security assets combing and system construction, GHS eventually built a sound, effective and feasible information security management system. Meanwhile, in terms of information technology application, GHS has taken technical measures involving database, network, personnel control, system, code, etc. to protect the company’s important information. GHS is a leading full-media retail platform in China. Through nationwide TV shopping channels, and excellent on-line and mobile shopping platforms, it strictly selects high-quality home supplies throughout the world for hundreds of millions of families in China, and creates ideal life experience. After passing the rigorous ISO27001 Information Security Management System Certification, GHS will more strictly control consumer-related ordering and transaction processes to create a more secure shopping environment for consumers. “Building a complete information security management system is an important part of GHS’ development strategy. Every year GHS reviews and supervises the operation of the information security system to guarantee its effective operation and continuous improvement,” said Mr. Zhou, project leader of GHS ISO27001 Information Security Management System Certification. In fact, for GHS, the establishment and certification of ISO27001 Information Security Management System is only the beginning of its information security management, and the key is its long-term, effective operation. It is known that ISO27001 is one of the most important international standards for information security management. It provides comprehensive standards for enterprises to establish, implement, maintain and continuously improve the information security management system, and requires enterprises to build a high-standard information security system to ensure the information security of enterprises and users. At present, ISO27001 Information Security Management System Standard has been recognized by many countries, and is the most representative information security management system standard.
On June 16, 2016, GHS held the launching ceremony for the “compensation pre-payment” system in Beijing. Director Chen Fengxiang of Beijing Consumer Association and leaders of Shijingshan Industrial and Commercial Bureau and Shijingshan Consumer Association were invited to participate in the ceremony. This marks the further improvement in GHS’ after-sale service quality and more guarantee for consumers. GHS officially launched the “compensation pre-payment” system with RMB 1 million of compensation pre-payment guarantee fund It is reported that, to fully implement the “compensation pre-payment” system, GHS has set up RMB 1 million of compensation pre-payment guarantee fund. When consumers are ordering commodities in GHS, if their legitimate rights and interests are violated and are not timely and reasonably treated, they can apply to GHS for compensation pre-payment. “Implementing the ‘compensation pre-payment’ system benefits both the nation and its people. We have been aiming to create a secure shopping environment for consumers, and we hope that more enterprises like GHS will join in the system,” said Director Chen Fengxiang of Beijing Consumer Association at the launching ceremony. “I believe that GHS can maximize the positive role of TV shopping platform and drive the further promotion of the ‘compensation pre-payment’ system in the entire TV shopping industry.” As a leading full-media retail platform in China, GHS provides global high-quality home supplies and services to consumers through its TV shopping channel covering the whole country and excellent on-line and mobile shopping platforms. This May, GHS took the lead in carrying out the service of free changing or refunding within 30 days throughout the country, which has greatly enhanced the service threshold of the TV shopping industry. According to reports, GHS’ compensation pre-payment process has been published on its official website, and GHS has also made a commitment to complete the handling of any consumer complaint within three working days after the consumer fill out the “Consumer Complaint Settlement and Handling Sheet”. “To create an ideal life experience for customers is the goal of GHS. The implementation of the ‘compensation pre-payment’ system helps resolve consumer disputes as soon as possible and create a better consumption environment for consumers,” said the head of after-sales at GHS. According to some insiders, the TV shopping industry has been troubled by the crisis of trust, and the implementation of the “compensation pre-payment” system can supervise and guide industry self-discipline, promote the rapid settlement of consumer disputes, and help rebuild the image of the TV shopping industry.
On June 7, 2016, domestic full-media retail enterprise GHS held “Moving - 2016 GHS Video E-commerce Platform News Conference” at Poly Theatre in Beijing. Leaders of CRI, China Home Shopping Alliance, Gehua, Taiwan Fubon, Beijing Media Network and other industry associations, partners, suppliers, carriers, media and consumers were invited to participate in the conference. More than 1,000 people witnessed the launching of first domestic mobile video APP by GHS. This means that GHS has officially entered the mobile video e-commerce field. GHS held the Video E-commerce Platform News Conference at Poly Theatre in Beijing Interpreting video experience economy? GHS creates the first mobile video shopping APP “Mobile video shopping is by no means simply adding video advertisements to shopping. Merely moving TV programs to the mobile phone side will undoubtedly lead to a failed product,” said Amy Yu, CEO of Beijing Read TV Technology Co., Ltd., the e-commerce platform of GHS, at the conference. “The most important thing of mobile video shopping is matching with the Internet. It should be a kind of videoized and scenarized video experience economy that can be shared.” Over 1,000 suppliers and partners participated in the conference at Poly Theatre At a time when live shows, online celebrities, etc. are popular in the capital market, how can the segment of video shopping convert mobile phone traffic to cash? And can video shopping become the innovation direction of business model? These problems have been the key to the exploration by e-commerce giants and video playing platforms. As a leading TV shopping company in China, GHS has launched the first domestic mobile video shopping APP in a real sense, seemingly providing a referable solution for these problems. “Consumers are emotional and rational at the same time. They know what they want, so what we need to do is not persuading them to buy a commodity, but truly and exactly displaying the commodity, and helping them find the commodity most suitable for them,” said Amy Yu at the conference. “This is precisely the biggest feature of GHS APP – showing the true property of a commodity in a simple, true and simple manner, so that consumers can have the most intuitive impression on the shape, size and function of the commodity.” CEO Amy Yu recruited players to join the platform at the conference Interestingly, all the core information of a commodity is concentrated in a video of only over ten or even several seconds. To enhance consumers’ watching experience, all the videos of GHS APP are of vertical version, so that consumers can comfortably watch the videos without rotating the mobile phones. What GHS APP pursues is exactly this mode, i.e. taking consumer experience as the core, and providing consumers with a direct feeling of the commodities, as well as comfortable video-watching experience. In this era dominated by content, GHS gathers a group of players who are extremely enthusiastic about a certain field. They produce interesting and useful content, share the wisdom of life, and help consumers filter and interpret the information flood and make decisions. It is known that GHS APP has gathered more than ten professional players from various fields, and more interested players were directly invited at the conference. At the conference, the audience raised their mobile phones to participate in the on-site interactive buying activity A conference announcing entering the mobile video e-commerce field? The essence is actually the voicing of the TV shopping industry For many people in the industry, GHS’ launch of mobile video shopping APP seems to have revealed its ambition to enter the mobile video e-commerce field, but that’s not the truth; instead, it aims to return to the original intention of the TV shopping industry and to consumers, and do a good job in a down-to-earth manner. “In essence, TV shopping is a media retail industry and service industry, and the core of service is to make consumers satisfied. Therefore, our task is to provide consumers with high-quality services in a steadfast manner right from the initial commodity selection. We believe that good services will form a strong word of mouth,” said GHS Chairman Jason Kong. GHS Chairman Jason Kong shared video shopping industry trends at the conference In China, TV shopping is a very special industry. The regulation disorder and brutal development of early TV shopping in satellite TV stations greatly harmed the TV shopping industry, and the most serious consequence was trust crisis. It is precisely because of this that many people deeply doubt the TV shopping industry, and are pessimistic about its development prospect. However, GHS Chairman doesn’t think so. He is full of confidence in the industry, and believes that the industry has a strong vitality. “At the conference, GHS exactly passed such a message: as long as TV shopping does a good job in terms of commodity and service in a down-to-earth manner, consumers will trust it,” said a participating supplier. In view of this, it is better to say this was the voicing of the TV shopping industry than to say this was a conference announcing the entry to the mobile video e-commerce field. GHS Chairman Jason Kong said at the conference that, in an era when selection is expensive, consumers are no longer keen to select, but hope to only make limited selections, or even make no selection. At this time, the optimized selection mechanism of TV shopping with buyer system as the core can provide the right services for consumers. The essence of TV shopping is selection, and GHS does fewer but better things, so GHS APP introduces the concept of buyer and recommends high-quality commodities. Consumers only need to get to know the commodities via video, and make decisions by selecting the best. In terms of after-sales service experience, GHS has also taken a brave action, i.e. free changing or refunding within 30 days throughout the country, which has enhanced the service threshold of the entire TV shopping industry. The problem faced by China’s TV shopping industry is also faced by China’s traditional media and traditional transmission mode. The channel value and social value of China’s TV shopping industry and even China’s media are seriously underestimated. But in fact, the media retail industry dominated by TV shopping can not only provide rapid transmission and sales channels for excellent products to meet consumer demands, but also impact consumers’ decision-making and generate consumer demands. Unfortunately, these values of TV shopping are ignored. However, in countries such as the United States and Korea with developed TV shopping, the channel value of media and TV shopping has been greatly presented. GHS Chairman Jason Kong believes that China’s TV shopping industry has the market base for generating leading enterprises with a scale of hundreds of billions of RMB, and the value will be greatly explored. GHS hopes to achieve the dream with people embracing the shark spirit In contrary to the “land zoo” scenery of domestic e-commerce industry, GHS has selected shark as its brand totem. “Many people ask me why we select shark. For Chinese people, shark is unfamiliar and terrifying, but as the strongest creature on top of the food chain in the sea, it has three notable features worth learning. Firstly, it has cartilage all over its body, so it has strong environmental adaptability and overall coordination capability; secondly, it changes 30,000 teeth in its lifetime, thus guaranteeing strong core competitiveness; thirdly, without a swim bladder, it has to keep swimming during its whole life to avoid sinking. GHS hope to learn and own all these spirits,” said Jason Kong. “We hope to achieve the dream of becoming a global media retail group with people embracing the shark spirit.”
On December 2015, GHS announced that it had formally passed the Quality Management System (ISO9001:2008) Certification issued by international certification authority British Standards Institution (BSI). This means that GHS’ continuous provision of efficient, professional, standardized and clear shopping experience and services for consumers has obtained international authorized certification. It is known that ISO Management System Standard is derived from the drafting and preparation by the century-old BSI, and is known as the “source of standards” in the industry; so far, more than 42% of Fortune 500 use BSI services. The certificates approved and issued by it have highly authoritative reputation and global mutual recognition efficacy. As a leading full-media retail platform in China, GHS operates TV shopping channels covering the whole country with the highest market value, and excellent online and mobile Internet shopping platforms. In fact, by virtue of its national-leading market value, continuously expanding sales scale, No.1 brand image and service advantages in the overall industrial chain layout, GHS is considered to have been among the first echelon in the industry. “Whether it is commodity selection or logistics and after-sales, we hope to create a secure, safe and convenient shopping experience for consumers,” said head of GHS ISO certification. Passing BSI’s strict ISO9001 certification means more guarantee for consumers to order commodities via television, website, APP, etc.
On December 2, 2015. Tejas Jewelry and GHS held the Kung Fu Panda Derivative Product Launch Event in Beijing. Attendants included Zhu Chenghua, vice president of Oriental Dreamworks, Yang Limei, chairman of Tejas Jewelry, Yin Wenyue, general manager of Tejas Jewelry, Yang Wei, vice general manager of Tejas Jewelry, Jason Kong, chairman of GHS, and Sammi Chen, general manager of GHS. Derivative products specially made by Tejas Jewelry were officially released in the event and will be sold on December 13 to domestic consumers by GHS as the first platform covering a full range of draw-bar suitcases, containing boxes, backpacks, etc.. This event aims to warm up the movie Kung Fu Panda 3 which is going to be released on the next January 29. The launch event starting with a show performed by cute “Kung Fu kids” A new Chinese power promoting the development of cultural and creative industries with respect to movies It is reported that Kung Fu Panda 3 is filmed and invested by China Film Co., Ltd., Oriental Works and DreamWorks SKG. It’s a highly anticipated movie made by China and America for the first time. Judging from released movie clips, the movie has been integrated with more Chinese stories in contents and Chinese products in film-making. China Film Co., Ltd., Oriental Works and DreamWorks SKG talking freely about the development of movie derivative market “Kung Fu Panda 3’s Chinese version is produced by Oriental Works’ local team. The movie contains many Chinese features from scenes, characters’ movements of lips and facial expressions to lines,” said Zhu Chenghua, “We hope to develop movie derivative product business together with local partners such as Tejas Jewelry and GHS and to provide rich and high-quality products for consumers by focusing on the value of the derivative product itself.” Po’s appearance attracting people’s eyes The released movie derivative products are produced by China’s emerging powers. Tejas Jewelry, the producer and operator, is an emerging brand in China and GHS, the distributor, is China’s leading omnimedia retailer that owns nationwide TV shopping channels with the highest market value and well-functioned mobile shopping platform. This time, Oriental Works empowers Tejas Jewelry to produce and operate Kung Fu Panda’s derivative products and together with Tejas Jewelry chooses GHS to be the first platform to release these products, which demonstrates Tejas Jewelry’s originality and GHS’ strong sales capability. GHS first releases Kung Fu Panda’s derivative products via TV shopping channel across China Now, China is the 2nd largest movie market, but its movie derivative market is still in the early stage of development. Jason Kong thinks, in cultural and creative industries with respect to movies, box office should be only a part, and derivative product development and authorized IP operation are a key part for the industry’s sustainable industrial development. But currently, the industry’s development and operation in derivative products still lags behind Hollywood. Po showing up in the launch event “GHS’ TV shopping platform is a channel industry in cultural and creative industries, which is naturally connected with movie derivative products. The channel can both promote movies and help movie derivative products enter domestic market,” said Jason Kong in an interview. It is reported the GHS platform will be the first to release Kung Fu Panda derivative products including draw-bar suitcases, containing boxes and backpacks. When asked why these products are developed, Yang Limei, chairman of Tejas Jewelry, said, “Kung Fu Panda series are popular around the world and many characters in this animated movie like the ‘Dragon Warrior’ Po are welcomed by global audience. The uniqueness of the movie makes these derivatives usable and commemorative.” Tejas Jewelry even cooperates with designers in Oriental Works and GHS to develop the derivatives.

CAEXPO TV business partner GHS channel once again participated in the expo following its first appearance in 2014, and it officially launched a brand promotion on the morning of September 20.

They are very attractive and the commodities are fully displayed there. We are a foreign brand and not very famous in China, so we yearn for a platform like GHS which can both promote and sell products to help us enter the Chinese market,” said an exhibitor from Malaysia. GHS brand promotion attracts nearly 100 ASEAN exhibitors To ensure that overseas enterprises successfully export commodities to the Chinese market, GHS specifically developed a one-stop investment-inviting solution for ASEAN exhibitors. “We have a professional culture media company which can help these overseas manufacturers to complete the localization strategy of brand packaging, and our trade company can also help them to expand sales channels,” said the head of investment-inviting & cooperation at GHS.

On the morning of July 13, 2015, the “X Training Camp” short semester opening ceremony and summer practice teaching activity co-held by GHS and the Advertising School of CUC was officially launched in GHS’ training room in Armco Times Square. About 60 students from CUC participated in this activity.

As one of the representatives of domestic TV shopping industry, GHS has dual attributes of media and retail. We have both the gene of video shopping and rich experience in B2C operation,” said the head of GHS “X Training Camp” teaching activity. Prior to this, Alimama also worked with the Advertising School of CUC on a short semester program themed with “big data”. The main reason why the university cooperated with GHS this year was that it valued GHS’ experience in converting media traffic to cash, which would be ofgreat guiding significance for media students’ learning practice. “X Training Camp” short semester opening ceremony was officially launched on July 13, 2015 CUC students participating in “X Training Camp” teaching activity visited GHS’ program studio Tang Sijing gave a lesson titled “Video + E-commerce = ?” Gu Bai gave a lesson titled “Video Shopping: Selection of Commodities and Extraction of Selling Points” During the “X Training Camp” teaching activity, GHS set up five excellent lessons on video shopping from the perspectives of commodity development, creative planning, implementation, and comprehensive integration of marketing and communication, and delivered all-around professional interpretation of video shopping.

Of course, we will also provide them with as much resources as possible, including video shooting learning opportunities and tutoring by instructors,” said the head of GHS “X Training Camp” teaching activity. In fact, as a young and responsible enterprise, GHS has been paying much attention to the education field, such as initiating the “HIT FM Global Music Classroom” public welfare activity to help young students realize their dreams.
