It\u2019s clear that this is one of the few outstanding teams in the entertainment industry in the Southwest. Could you tell us a little more about your company?\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent:2em;\">\n\t\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent:2em;\">\n\t<strong>Li Xize, CEO of Chengdu Color Factor Entertainment Co., Ltd.:<\/strong>Chengdu Color Factor Entertainment Co., Ltd. (chengducolttxentertainment) is the first entertainment company in Southwest China to integrate a pan-entertainment platform, traditional media broadcasting and promotion channels, and professional production and operations. Our company has established strategic partnerships with mainstream television media outlets, online platforms, entertainment companies, and arts universities both domestically and internationally. We boast the finest faculty in the Southwest for the new generation of talent, featuring top industry instructors from China and abroad, as well as renowned domestic artists serving as celebrity mentors to guide and support our performers.\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent:2em;\">\n\t\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent:2em;\">\n\t<strong>Asia News Weekly:<\/strong>People in the industry often say, \u201cPresident Li, you\u2019re very young, yet you\u2019ve been working hard in the entertainment industry for so many years. You\u2019ve directed and participated in numerous large-scale events, such as the 2014 *China\u2019s Got Talent* Chengdu regional competition, the 2016 \u201cSuper Girl\u201d Sichuan Regional Competition, and serving as the executive director for the 2016 Campus Female Idol Selection Contest. So, what do you think sets this YOUNGCOLOR competition apart from previous talent shows held in Sichuan? Could you give us a brief introduction?\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent:2em;\">\n\t\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent:2em;\">\n\t<strong>Li Xize, CEO of Chengdu Color Factor Co., Ltd.:<\/strong>Yes, in terms of age, people might think I\u2019m quite young to be in a leadership role in this industry, but in terms of my time in show business, I\u2019d say it\u2019s been quite a while. I entered the entertainment industry before graduating from college, and since then I\u2019ve been working in the entertainment and cultural sectors. Over the years, I\u2019ve participated in numerous large-scale entertainment events in Sichuan and have been constantly learning from my mentors, but I still have many of my own ideas and insights regarding these programs and events. I hope to combine what I\u2019ve learned with my own ideas about entertainment. Over the past few years, I\u2019ve been constantly reflecting, learning, exploring, and improving. My mentors are all top-tier figures in the industry, both nationally and internationally, and they\u2019ve all been guiding me. I\u2019m very grateful for their guidance. I\u2019ve always believed that by working diligently, and acting with sincerity\u2014only by creating excellent work can we truly win people over. Over the years, we have consistently released music and video productions. As a result, our company has attracted the finest young musical talents from Southwest China to join us in building this venture, working hard together, and striving collectively for the advancement of China\u2019s music and cultural industries. Since its founding, the company has introduced over 100 entertainment talents to the industry and provided more than 1,000 artistic talents to the Southwest\u2019s entertainment and cultural sectors. Meanwhile, our talent placement rate within the industry stands at 120%, and we have supplied tens of thousands of entertainment professionals to numerous national satellite TV stations and major web portals. You all witnessed the \u201cCampus Female Idol Grand Finale\u201d in person. I believe it was a meticulously organized event with formal procedures, rigorous selection, and high standards. Everyone agreed that the performers and singers on stage were of a very high caliber, and the judges were top-tier national-level industry heavyweights. It truly would have been a shame to eliminate any of them, but it couldn\u2019t be helped. After more than two months of competition, over 40 contestants made it to the Grand Finale. Ultimately, only 16 could be selected to represent Sichuan at the national level and join our \u201cCity Star-Making Program.\u201d You all saw my final performance\u2014I was moved to tears. In front of such a large audience, everyone\u2014whether the 16 selected contestants or those who didn\u2019t make the cut\u2014was deeply moved. We hugged each other and cried together\u2014it was deeply moving. Organizing such a large-scale event independently is truly difficult, but we pulled through. As the producer and executive director, I didn\u2019t want any of them to be eliminated, but the selection process itself is inherently brutal\u2014we had to uphold the criteria, standards, and principles, because they represent the pride of nearly 100 million people in Sichuan, and we hope to showcase the highest level of Sichuan\u2019s entertainment industry to the nation. Throughout these past two months, hardly anyone on our team has had a full night\u2019s sleep. But we all feel that the effort was worth it and very meaningful. We\u2019re truly delighted that this competition has earned everyone\u2019s recognition. Chengdu Color Factor Entertainment Co., Ltd. and Sichuan Internet Radio and Television Station will continue to produce this project every year to select more young musical talents for Sichuan and contribute to the province\u2019s entertainment industry.\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent:2em;\">\n\t\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;text-indent:2em;\">\n<p style=\"text-indent:2em;\">\n\t\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent:2em;\">\n\t<strong>Asia News Weekly:<\/strong>Mr. Li, we can truly relate to what you just shared, and we\u2019re delighted by your success.
