Entertainment Music Show 'Superboy' Teams Up with OpenV

BEIJING, April 23 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- OpenV ( http://www.openv.tv/ ), the leading Chinese video search platform, recently announced that the Company has signed an agreement with hifly.tv, the official network of Hunan TV Station, in regards to a comprehensive strategic cooperation to help promote "Superboy" in 2007. "Superboy" is a spin-off of the ever-popular "Supergirl" series, also launched by Hunan TV. "Supergirl" has become a nationwide sensation in recent years, and it is hoped that the continued attention will help "Superboy" reach similar audience ratings.

The show revolves around contestants singing live on-stage, before judge feedback and public voting decides who will progress and who will be eliminated. Contestants are selected from all over China, and must be able to sing and perform before a live audience. The nationwide search for the next superstar has seen phenomenal success across China in recent years, and on the basis of this it is believed that "Superboy" will meet sponsor expectations this year.

The agreement between OpenV and hifly.tv will offer even greater opportunities for the voting public, and the involved parties. OpenV will be providing complete online video-based searching service for the event. Sources from Autonomy said, "We are glad to see the video industry booming in China. Congratulations to OpenV's new cooperative relationship with Hunan TV and 'Superboy'." Compared with previous years, this year's "Superboy" is sure to be even better, benefiting greatly from the participation of OpenV and hifly.tv.

OpenV's core technology comes from Autonomy, the world's leading company in intelligent processing of unstructured information. Utilizing their powerful technology and extensive resources in China, OpenV is starting to up its development pace, becoming a favourite among many netizens when searching for online video content, and this has helped the Company take a lead in the field of global Chinese TV and video search.

For OpenV, this is not the first time dealing with a traditional Chinese TV station. Recently, they also worked with CCTV.com to provide a co-channel for Spring Festival celebrations, offering services to search through 25 different Spring Festival entertainment shows. Besides the recent cooperative deal, dozens of TV stations, including medium magnates such as CCTV.com, Shanghai TV Station, and Hunan TV Station, have all established a working relationship with OpenV. The Company believes that TV programming will become more diversified through OpenV's new network transmissions channel.
