About China Century Dragon Media
China Century Dragon Media is a China based media company. Through CD Media Beijing, CCDM engages in the promotion, sale and marketing of advertising packages on China television stations. CCDM purchases advertising time packages that air on CCTV-1, CCTV-2 and CCTV-3, three of the main channels of CCTV, the state television station of the PRC, which they repackage and sell to its customers. Currently they deal solely with third parties that act as agents for the sale of advertising time slots by CCTV. In addition, CCDM provides certain production services to help their clients integrate market resources and find partners to assist with producing the commercials.
The CCDM advertising business includes securing all or a portion of the advertising time and other advertising rights, which include soft advertising, such as sponsorship, on a specific television channel or program. They derive revenues in these cases from selling the advertising media resources that they've have acquired to advertisers. CCDM accounts for revenues in these cases on a gross basis and the cost for purchasing the advertising time slots is allocated to cost of revenues on a straight –line basis because they acquire the advertising media resources in advance at a predetermined price and bear the inventory risk of being a principal in acquiring the advertising media resources. They also have the ability to establish the prices that they charge for selling these advertising media resources to our clients. CCDM is also presently in the process of becoming a public company on a U.S. exchange.
