It is difficult to find financial information about some of the most important players in the Chinese TV industry and it?s even more difficult to find out about their advertising revenues. I found that for some of the biggest players I was able to get information from the financial and marketing press instead of financial reports from the company. I hope that this will be helpful.
As you requested, I?m offering links to ten companies? financial reports and the particular pages in these reports where they discuss their advertising revenues and strategies.
In addition to these individual company postings, I?m also including some sources for additional Chinese broadcast TV stations. Some of these have websites wholly in Chinese. I thought these resources might be useful since you mentioned that ?the reports themselves do not have to be in English.?
I hope this information is what you?re looking for. Please don?t hesitate to ask for clarification if you need further assistance.
All the best.

China advertising
Poised to become the No. 2 ad market on the planet, China and consumer advertisers are focusing on the future of business.
Trust in TV
Guo says commercials in primetime -- roughly between 7-9 p.m. -- make up half of CCTV's annual revenue, and the 2004 auction of its airtime netted China's national broadcaster 4.4 billion yuan ($543 million) after advertising agencies took the 15% commission they are allowed by Chinese law.

CCTV: National Network's System Helps Advertisers Go Beyond Big Cities
Published: May 09, 2006
With so much talk in the U.S. of changing the annual TV marketplace known as the upfront, Advertising Age decided to look into how TV ad time is bought and sold in key markets around the world. This is the second in a series.
The broadcaster has evolved over the past decade from backward state-controlled behemoth into savvy commercial entity. About four-fifths of the $37 billion spent on advertising in China goes to TV, according to Nielsen; much of it to CCTV. Up to 90% of CCTV's revenue comes from advertising, so to rake in as many dollars as possible, an auction is held every November to sell prime-time slots for the following year.
In 2004, CCTV took in about $655 million. Last November, the auction generated almost $725 million. Although Chinese brands dominate CCTV's airtime, for the past two years Procter & Gamble Co. has been the king of the auction. P&G spent $47 million of its total $400 million ad budget for China at the 2004 event for CCTV airtime last year. In 2005, P&G invested $43.5 million for 2006 airtime on CCTV.
