Beijing’s ban on television advertising during dramas could be a blessing in disguise

Chinese brands are shifting their resources from TV to the digital space. There has been a 200% year on year growth for online video advertising in China, according to iResearch, which is set to grow further after The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television ban for commercials during television dramas came into effect this month.

The transition from print to television to online to mobile in China has been one of the fastest in the world, and advertisers have been quick to follow suit, rushing to keep pace with consumer preferences.

According to iResearch, the ban on television advertising during dramas will only speed up an unmistakable trend in China’s advertising market. With these regulations now in effect, says jing daily, we can expect to see a rush among consumer-facing brands to increase their online and mobile marketing and advertising efforts.
