BEIJING, April 4 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Telecom Communications, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: TCOM), the Total Solutions Provider, announced today that its subsidiary, MyStarU.com online education net signed a joint venture agreement with Beijing License Services Corporation ("BLSC"), a China-based franchise development and marketing company, to distribute, market, and support Mystaru' Star Dram Program in China TV and film market. The business agreement dictated the formation of performing company, MyStarU Franchise that will spearhead the marketing and sales efforts in Beijing test market and verify the business model for future franchise development activity in third quarter 2007.
"Our business venture with BLSC is progressing very well, and we are right on schedule with respect to Mystaru' Star Dram Program 's planned marketing and sales activities," states TCOM vice president, Yan Liu. "Our initial install in Beijing market is performing as planned, and paves the way for additional run in the coming weeks. The success of Mystaru' Star Dram Program bodes well for future sales of MyStarU talent agency and management systems." Mystaru ( http://www.mystaru.com ) is a website dedicated to performing arts education. Mystaru's content launch includes ten hours of multimedia performing education courses developed by Stareastnet ( http://www.stareastnet.com ). The content draws on the popularity of Stareastnet's unique 30-minute presentation concept. Stareastnet has been producing artist profiles since 1999, and delivers several live seminars each year. Another ten hours of Stareastnet content will be added in the near future and Mystaru.com is producing ten additional hours later this month, which are expected to be available online later this year.
The system is a prototype for state-of-the-art delivery of streaming video performing education courses in the music and movie industries in greater China. The new courseware was developed using the Guangzhou TCOM 's EDU v5.0 Education Management System and is delivered to viewers via the Mystaru platform. The multimedia content is produced using Adobe Flash(r) video synchronized presentations and demonstrative video clips. Users can view multimedia performing training presentations that include downloadable video files of course materials and are then able to upload their own video files to teachers for analysis, which affords users the opportunity to have questions answered by course teachers. Mystaru intends to use this new capability to reach hundreds of thousands of young people who are interested in entering the performing arts, music and movie industries. Mystaru's goal is to deliver education content online without meaningful limitations or restrictions.
Business model is generation revenue by monthly basic membership fee. Mystaru.com will begin to charge users a monthly fee of $20 for each end-user starting on January 1, 2007. We believe this new service offering will add one more substantial revenue stream for us, forecasted to be 60,000 users in 2007. We are also working with a main talent management firm and production companies in Hong Kong /China to adapt their platforms specifically to suit the unique needs of the artists' talent market. Mystaru is co-operation with Sohu.com (Nasdaq: SOHU) http://yule.sohu.com/s2006/bogeboqjhhx/ for promotion and marketing services.
