KyLinTV First to Broadcast ChongQing TV in North America: Chinese IPTV Service Presents Key Provincial Channel

PLAINVIEW, N.Y., Aug. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- KyLinTV is the first to roll-out ChongQing TV (CQTV) in North America, a channel devoted to bridging the ChongQing province in China to the rest of the world, as part of the largest selection of Chinese entertainment in North America: 26 live broadcast channels and a vast video library that offers subscribers more than 20,000 hours of choice.

CQTV, launched in October of 1998, broadcasts to 31 provinces and 500 regional cities in China with its 24 hour coverage. CQTV closely follows the changes and development of ChongQing and works hard to bridge the gap between ChongQing and the world. In 2005, an audience survey showed that CQTV was ranked as the number 5 most popular channel of cable TV in 30 major cities in China.

One of the most popular programs on CQTV is "Foggy City Night Talk," which tells the stories of families in the ChongQing dialect. It unveils the conflicts between individuals and society and is a program that has won a prominent audience. "The Entertainment Center" is a daily 30 minute program on CQTV that focuses on the entertainment news of Hong Kong and Taiwan. Their reporters are there in person, delivering in-depth reports on important entertainment events firsthand.

"We are very excited about the new KyLinTV broadcast channels," said Jackie Xu, a reseller in Toronto, Canada. "No where else except on KyLinTV, can you find CQTV, a very popular channel from China." Through IPTV technology, KyLinTV makes overseas content easily available to viewers, bringing the most content with the most variety.

Other top-rated shows found on CQTV include "Talk After Watching," a law- related program investigating typical law cases and "Longmen Talk Show," an influential talk show featuring guests such as celebrities, social elites and even ordinary people to discuss hot topic issues that are important to them.

KyLinTV subscribers will have direct access to the most popular broadcasts from China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. In addition, KyLinTV will broadcast US Chinese channels with programs produced exclusively for North American consumers.

Viewers can tune in to live broadcast channels on KyLinTV and watch the programs as they air. If they miss the program they wanted to watch, subscribers have the option of using the broadcast channel companion which preserves the lineup of news and entertainment programs for 24 hours, and is a feature that is unique to KyLinTV. In addition, KyLinTV subscribers can take advantage of the broadcast channel on demand, an exclusive library of the most popular programs from that channel.
