“Pitch David Ogilvy” Iphone App Named FWA “Mobile of the Day” Free Iphone App Available Now on the App Store PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Ogilvy & Mather’s “Pitch David Ogilvy” iPhone App Named FWA “Mobile of the Day” Free iPhone app available now on the App Store [BEIJING: 22 JULY 2011] Today Ogilvy & Mather’s “Pitch David Ogilvy” iPhone app was named “Mobile of the Day” by the industry recognized internet award program FWA (Favourite Website Awards). The app was created to continue the centennial celebration of Ogilvy & Mather founder David Ogilvy who was born 100 years ago on June 23. The new iPhone app invites the public to pitch their “big ideas” to the iconic ad man himself. Using the iPhone’s videoconference function, the free app allows users to have a direct Facetime conversation with a 3D David Ogilvy about their ideas. Through speech recognition technology, David Ogilvy, one of the advertising industry’s most famous and lauded figures, will respond accordingly to the pitched idea with an encouragement or an honest and straightforward critique in his signature style. The interactive “Pitch David Ogilvy” app commemorates the advertising legend’s commitment to knowledge, imagination and innovation that continues to inspire today’s generation of pioneers across all industries. For advertising enthusiasts and creatives who have been influenced by famous Ogilvyisms such as “Never write an advertisement that you wouldn’t want your own family to read,” “Tolerate genius,” and “Unless your advertising is built on a big idea, it will pass like a ship in the night,” this app gives today’s ad men a fun mobile tool to test their concepts and big ideas. Doug Schiff, ECD of OgilvyOne Bejing, who worked with Ogilvy Digital Lab, Sascha Engel, to develop the iPhone app, said, “We created this fun and engaging app because we wanted to bring David’s passion for big ideas back to contemporary life. And we are thrilled with the recognition from FWA. After all, every great accomplishment starts with a big idea and we want to encourage thinking in the same spirit as David Ogilvy, in a new and digital way of course! ” 1 Ogilvy’s “Pitch David Ogilvy” app is available now through the App Store and is compatible with iPhone and iPod touch (4th generation). Requires iOS 3.1.3 or later. Check out a video introduction to the App here: Youku: http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjg0OTg4NTA0.html Tudou: http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/m-H5bMbR730/ YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ou_RI1tnYIU Open iTunes to download: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pitch- david/id445326548?mt=8 The “Pitch David Ogilvy” iPhone app is the second app created by Ogilvy China’s Digital Lab.

  • Joint Action Against Online Video Piracy in China
    November 13, 2013 Joint Action Against Online Video Piracy in China Lawsuits Seeking RMB300 Million in Damages Filed Against Baidu and QVOD on Claims of Spreading Pirated Videos and Engaging in Hotlinking BEIJING, Nov. 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Youku Tudou, Sohu Video, Tencent Video, LeTV, MPA, the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA), CODA, Wanda Films, Enlight Media, Letv Films announce a joint declaration today in Beijing to fight online video infringement and piracy both on PC and mobile Internet in China. Meanwhile, the joint action announces legal action has been taken against Baidu and QVOD for compensation as high as RMB300 million. Representatives from more than a dozen Chinese and international film and television production companies attended the joint action announcement in Beijing. International attendees included the Motion Picture Association of America, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Warner Brothers, Disney and Paramount. Chinese attendees included the Capital Copyright Industry Alliance Capital Protection Division, the China Radio and Television Association of the Television Production Committee, and many Chinese production companies. "Since 2009, the video industry is facing a more severe anti-piracy situation," Sohu Group Chairman and CEO Charles Zhang said. "Especially when those big Internet companies with resource advantages participate in large-scale piracy. We cannot keep competing because where thieves and robbers are having their way, law-abiding companies cannot survive. We may even have to exit online video industry if such practices continue. Nobody will invest in content, and China's online video industry will face the sad situation as the music industry, which has already been destroyed by piracy, had faced before.

  • From Western TV Sets to Chinese Online Streaming Services: English-Language TV Series in Mainland China
    . Volume 16, Issue 2 November 2019 From Western TV sets to Chinese online streaming services: English-language TV series in mainland China Xiaoran Zhang, University of Nottingham, UK Abstract: In the age of multiple screens, online streaming has in the 2010s become the most significant way of consuming overseas television programs in Mainland China. Due to rather strict government policy and censorship, foreign television series are presently only legally distributed and circulated on licensed online streaming services. Focusing on the streaming of US/UK TV series, this paper examines online streaming services’ distribution activities in order to understand both streaming websites’ business practices surrounding transnational TV and the features they employ to cater to online audiences for these series. To grasp how the online distribution of English-language TV series operates in China, I begin by looking at China’s five major video streaming services, analyzing the design of their interfaces, scheduling of programs, and accessibility for different tiers of users. I then examine how streaming services use social media as a major tool to promote their US and UK TV series. Through this analysis, I argue that transnational TV flow has had to be localized to achieve distribution and marketing goals in a Chinese context, resulting in the uniqueness of these streaming practices. This article concludes that, with the development of online streaming technologies, distinctive modes of audience consumption in China have informed the localization of this specific transnational TV content. Keywords: Online streaming, streaming consumption, television distribution, transnational TV, Tencent Video, HBO, Game of Thrones Introduction As one of HBO’s most successful high-end shows, Game of Thrones (2011-) has earned a worldwide reputation that includes the fandom of Chinese viewers.

    Alibaba Group and Youku Tudou Enter into Definitive Merger Agreement Alibaba to Acquire Youku Tudou in an All-Cash Transaction Hangzhou and Beijing, China, November 6, 2015 – Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) and Youku Tudou Inc. (NYSE:YOKU) today announced their entry into a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which an affiliate of Alibaba Group (“Alibaba”) will acquire Youku Tudou Inc., a leading multi-screen entertainment and media company in China (“Youku Tudou”), in an all-cash transaction (the “Transaction”). Upon completion of the Transaction, the shareholders of Youku Tudou, other than the current investment entity controlled by Alibaba, will have the right to receive US$27.60 per American Depositary Share (“ADS”, each representing 18 ordinary shares of Youku Tudou) in cash. The price represents a premium of 35.1% over the closing price of Youku Tudou’s ADSs on October 15, 2015, one day prior to the date that Youku Tudou announced it had received a “going private” proposal from Alibaba, and a premium of 49.9% to the volume-weighted average closing price of Youku Tudou’s ADSs during the three months prior to October 15, 2015. Youku Tudou’s board of directors (the “Youku Tudou Board”), acting on the recommendation of an independent special committee of the Youku Tudou Board (the “Special Committee”), unanimously approved the merger agreement and the Transaction and recommends that Youku Tudou’s shareholders vote to authorize and approve the merger agreement and the Transaction. “We believe this combination with Alibaba maximizes value for Youku Tudou shareholders and significantly benefits our customers, users and team,” said Victor Koo, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Youku Tudou.
