DALIAN, China, Jan. 10, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- China New Media Corp.

This is the first Well-known trademark that has ever been given in the outdoor media industry and entitles the Company to an additional RMB50 million credit line.

The SAIC's "China Well-known Trademark" recognition is China's highest honor for brands with the most visibility, reputation, consumer appeal and market acceptance.

More recently, the Company has successfully broadened its footprint in northern China with operations in Dalian, Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin and Shenyang. In October 2011, the Company announced a $2.8 million advertising contract with the official launch of the first LED screen located at the Beijing Capital International Airport.

Mr. James Wang, Chairman and CEO of China New Media, stated, "It is with great honor that we receive this award from the SAIC and are recognized as the first outdoor advertising company to do so. Since inception our goal has been to provide each city with scenery in an effort to enhance its development and economy.
