With more than $1 billion in distribution and financing deals concluded annually,AFM remained a crucial event for the film industry. FlexTV,operated by MPU,is a leading global streaming platform specializing in short drama. FlexTV's influence in the North American short drama market and its dedication to high-quality,diverse content earned MPU the honor of having the forum named "FlexTV" in its recognition.

During the forum,Chief Strategy Officer of MPU,Songtao Jia,delivered a keynote that highlighted the revolutionary impact of short drama as an emerging entertainment format. Showcasing MPU's most popular short drama Mr. Williams! Madame Is Dying,he illustrated how the short drama model adapted to shorter audience attention spans and vertical viewing trends,and through data analytics,how MPU precisely identified audience preferences,aligning content with viewer demand.

Executives from other short drama platforms and industry leaders further examined the rise of short drama in North America,observing that shifts in internet technology and evolving audience habits were driving a transformation in traditional film and television. With its concise storytelling,the short drama format proved cost-effective and well-suited to the fast-paced modern lifestyle. Localization of short drama emerged as a notable trend in the North American market,even drawing the attention of Hollywood.

Industry experts at the forum discussed the impact of short drama on traditional film and television,recognizing how the format allowed for rapid market testing,financial risk mitigation,and new avenues for creativity and narrative development. This balance between user-generated content and professional production represented not only an industry shift but also a new engagement platform for audiences and creators.

Key Metrics

The numbers for our key metrics,which include our total active users (TAU),total paying users (TPU),average membership and top-up streaming service revenue per active user (ARPU),and average membership and top-up streaming service revenue per paying user (ARPPU),are calculated using internal company data based on the activity of user accounts. We define an active user as a user who has downloaded and opened the FlexTV app at least once. We define a paying user as a user who has registered for a membership or has topped up,provided a method of payment,and is entitled to access FlexTV services (this membership or topping up does not include participation in free trials or other promotional offers extended by FlexTV to new users). We define ARPU as average membership and top-up streaming services revenue generated by each active user in one quarter. We define ARPPU as average membership and top-up streaming services revenue generated by each paying user in one quarter. We use these metrics to assess the growth and health of the overall business and believe that ARPU best reflects our ability to attract,retain,engage and monetize our users,and thereby drive revenue. While these numbers are based on what we believe to be reasonable estimates of our user base for the applicable period of measurement,there are inherent challenges in measuring usage of our products across large online and mobile populations around the world. In addition,we are continually seeking to improve our estimates of our user base,and such estimates may change due to improvements or changes in technology or our methodology.
