All members of CTPIA:
  2015 China (Shenzhen) International TV Drama & TV Program Fair is to be held from December 8th to December 10th. Hosted by China TV Drama Production Industry Association (CTPIA) and Shenzhen Film & Television Industry Society, the three-day event is being organized by CTPIA and Shenzhen Media Group. It will bring great influence to the next year, so we would like to inform you of the following matters:


1.The theme of the Fair is Interaction, Cooperation, Exploration and Win-win.
In 2015, there are changes in China’s TV drama production and broadcasting market, and the modes of “one drama, two channels” and “no more than two episodes at prime time” made the producers and broadcasters realize the importance of interaction, cooperation, exploration and win-win results. To meet the need of the new situation, the Fair will continue to work on a pragmatic and efficient platform for those aims, which is also a path to increase the exchange between countries and regions and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, to deepen the cooperation of TV drama and programs production and broadcasting, and to bring Chinese TV drama into international market.
2.The main events of the fair include:
(1)China TV Drama Industry Investigation Report (2015) Release
The industry investigation report released in last year’s Shenzhen International TV Drama and TV Program Fair caught the professional’s attention. With its influence on the whole industry in transitional period, practitioners have got a clear knowledge of their own position, the situation and the development direction.
China TV Drama Industry Investigation Report (2015) Release will not only focus on the changes of the market caused by “one drama, two channels” and “no more than two episodes at prime time”, but also the hot spots under the “internet plus” circumstance. With the research of the situation and development rules of TV drama industry in traditional TV drama market and internet new-media market, the report will also analyze the international market and typical cases.
(2)Chinese and Foreign TV Drama Industry Development Summit Forum
“One drama, two channels” and “no more than two episodes at prime time” policies were first implemented in 2015, bringing the producers new problems and challenges. The important issues of the forum include how to deal with the alliance between TV stations and producers, the interaction and competition between traditional TV media and internet new media under the new circumstance, and how to further the cooperation between TV drama producers and broadcasters in the world. State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television of the People’s Republic of China (SARFT for short) will also take the chance to make instructive speech about the issues of common interest.
(3)Chinese and Foreign TV Drama Promotion and Trading
To deal with the changes in TV drama market, a new platform for promotion and trading is set up for distributors from all over the world in this year to encourage members to create more popular TV dramas. Production organizations at all levels can make their speech within the given time to raise money or make promotion for their new drama. For better results, CTPIA will fund for the copyright registration of new drama storylines for all members in the same way as last year, and send the collection of storylines to such broadcasters as TV stations and video websites for reference.
Backed by the International Cooperation Department of SARFT, many producers and distributors from Europe, America, Asia and the Middle East were invited to the Fair last year, and in addition to those areas, this year the Fair will invite distributors from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan to the promotion and trading.
