Digital media is the future
The media industry is a multi-trillion-dollar market in China, growing two-fold in the recent decade. One main revenue source in this industry comes from advertisement. In recent years, the distribution of ad spending in China gradually shifted away from traditional media channels towards internet and mobile advertisements. Digital media takes up over half of total ad spending in China, with ByteDance and Alibaba being the largest online ad companies.
