SHANGHAI, June 27 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Xinhua Finance Limited ("XFL"; TSE Mothers: 9399; OTC ADRs: XHFNY), China's premier financial information and media provider, today announced the launch of the Xinhua Finance eziData China Consumer Confidence Index (CCCI), a new barometer of Chinese consumers' changing outlook toward the macro-economy, pricing and living conditions. (Logo: http://www.xprn.com.cn/xprn/sa/200611140926.gif ) The CCCI is produced in conjunction with Dr. Richard Curtin, Research Professor and Director at the Institute of Social Research of the University of Michigan, a globally recognized authority on consumer sentiment research, who also conducts the well-known University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index. Dr. Curtin has conducted or been involved in many consumer confidence surveys in the United States and other parts of the world, and is providing guidance to ensure the new China index meets international standards. The monthly updated China Consumer Confidence Index is designed to be the most frequently released consumer confidence index by an independent third party research operation in China. The CCCI is composed of two sub-indexes, namely, the current index and expectations index, covers four key sectors (real estate, durables, automobiles and stock investment) and offers detailed demographic data on age, income level and geography. An effective measurement of consumer behavior, the index is intended to enable financial professionals, analysts, and strategy and policy makers to keep closer track of trends in the Chinese consumer market and to understand the market directly from the consumers. "The launch of this new product represents our continued efforts to bring international standards and best practices to China and enhance the transparency of the market," said Ms. Fredy Bush, CEO of XFL. "Over the last two years, we have been expanding our capability from serving financial institutions to professionals in China who require market intelligence and investment information. We are glad to be able to utilize our expanded capabilities and integrate our subsidiary's research expertise in providing a new tool for understanding China's consumer market," she added. The index has been developed through a partnership between eziData and XFL subsidiary Xinhua Finance Media (Nasdaq: XFML), leveraging Xinhua Finance Media's market research capabilities and Xinhua Finance's well-established brand reputation and distribution channels. eziData is a local provider of China consumer data, serving both financial and consumer market participants. "We are proud to work with Dr. Curtin of the University of Michigan with the support of Xinhua Finance family," said Ms. Kathy Chen, President of eziData. "I am confident that the University's highly recognized methodology in consumer confidence indexing and Xinhua Finance Media's expertise in China's consumer market can be effectively combined in the customization of a tool that reflects the real situation within China and fulfills the requirements of sophisticated users." The survey for the index is conducted in 50 top cities across mainland China, targeting demographics with strong consumption capacity. The index results are released on the last Wednesday of each month. The results of the latest June survey indicate that Chinese consumers showed a slight confidence decline due to growing concerns over recent price increases, including the spike in pork and egg prices during the month. A summary of the first survey results is attached. For more information about Xinhua Finance eziData China Consumer Confidence Index or to subscribe to the latest monthly survey report, please contact us via info@eziData.com . Methodology Xinhua Finance eziData China Consumer Confidence Index is produced in association with Dr. Richard Curtin, Research Professor and Director of the Consumer Sentiment Surveys at the Institute of Social Research, University of Michigan. The index is based on a monthly survey of 1,500 Chinese households via stratified random sampling in 50 representative cities across the eastern, middle and western parts of China using the well-established methodology of the University of Michigan. All data is collected via computer assisted telephone interviewing (CATI). Index of April 2007 survey is set as the benchmark (100).

SHANGHAI, China, June 27 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- (Logo: http://www.xprn.com.cn/xprn/sa/200611140926.gif ) Indicator Value Change May 2007: 251.1 April 2007: 251.1 Month-to-month change: 0.0% May 2006: 182.5 Year-to-year change: 37.5% Click http://www.xinhuafinance.com/en/charts/ipo_rpi/0706/ipo_chart0706.jpg to download the chart. Highlights The IPO indicator stayed at its high of 251.1 at the end of May, unchanged from the previous month. Four stocks were added to the indicator, three of which were listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange and the fourth on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Analysis Of the 107 equities included in both the April and May indicators, fifty-six dropped in price, fifty increased, and one remained unchanged. Energy stocks continued to be the main contributors to the indicator's value. China Coal (H share, 1898), Datong Coal (A share, 601001), and Pingdingshan Tianan Coal (A share, 601666) represented 43 percent of the increase in the indicator's market capitalization. Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC; A share, 601398; H share, 1398), China CITIC Bank (A share, 601998; H share, 0998), Industrial Bank(A share, 601166), and Bank of China (A share, 601988; H share, 3988) accounted for the largest drops in market capitalization in May, but these were not enough to lower the value of the indicator. Methodology A stock's float-adjusted market capitalization over time forms the basis for indicator calculations. Stock dividends, stock splits, special dividends, share consolidations, repurchases, spin-offs, and combination stock distributions may trigger adjustments to the indicator values. Only companies incorporated and domiciled in mainland China that go public on the Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong stock exchanges are included. Companies are removed from the indicator after twelve months. Xinhua Finance/Milken Institute China Indicators The Xinhua Finance/Milken Institute China Indicators provide investors, analysts, and financial professionals insight into China's money and capital markets. Five of the eight indicators have been launched since November 2006: the Renminbi Pressure Indicator, the Chinese IPO Indicator, the Market Adjusted Debt (MAD) Indicator, the Banking Strength Indicator (BSI), and the Adjusted Trade and Finance (ATF) Indicator. The remaining three indicators (the China M&A Indicator, the China Privatization Indicator, and the China Corporate Governance Indicator) will be launched later this year. Time Period Coverage and Frequency New companies are added to the indicator as soon as they are listed, while current companies are removed after twelve months. The IPO Indicator has a base date of December 31, 1997, when the indicator's value was set equal to 100, and covers the period from December 31, 1991, to the present.

SHANGHAI, China, June 27 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- (Logo: http://www.xprn.com.cn/xprn/sa/200611140926.gif ) Indicator Value Change March 2007: 202.7 February 2007: 200.1 Month-to-month change:1.30% March 2006: 180.2 Year-to-year change: 12.46% Click http://www.xinhuafinance.com/en/charts/ipo_rpi/0706/rpi_chart0706.jpg to download the chart. Highlights In March 2007, the Renminbi Pressure Indicator (RPI) score increased by 1.30 percent as China's foreign exchange reserves rose to US$1.20 trillion. The interest rate rose 0.27 percentage point as the government tried to slow down investment growth. Analysis Yuan appreciation and mounting foreign exchange reserves continued to push the RPI higher in March to 202.7, or 1.30 percent over the previous month. Foreign exchange reserves rose by US$44.7 billion in March, which reflected a 50 percent increase in China's trade surplus in February. This was the second-largest value increase since the revaluation of the yuan in July 2005. For the period, the increase in foreign exchange reserves accounted for 1.28 percentage points, while exchange rate appreciation accounted for 0.02 percentage point. In regards to the April and May values, although foreign exchange reserves are not yet known, the monthly yuan appreciation rate grew to 0.40 and 0.69 percent, respectively (from 0.07 percent in March), while the interest rate was unchanged. The trade surplus declined to $6.9 billion in April before growing to US$16.8 billion in May. Despite the 8.18 percent yuan appreciation since July 2005, the growth in trade balance and foreign exchange reserves has shown no sign of slowing down and will likely continue to drive the upward movement in the indicator. Methodology The RPI is based on a monthly examination of the interaction between the following variables to compute overall cumulative exchange rate pressure: the percentage change in the spot exchange rate, the percentage change in foreign exchange reserves, and the change in domestic interest rates. The indicator measures the pressure on China's currency relative to the U.S. dollar. It is set equal to 100 on January 1, 2000. Increases in the RPI reflect appreciation pressure on the renminbi (RMB). Xinhua Finance/Milken Institute China Indicators The Xinhua Finance/Milken Institute China Indicators are aimed at providing investors, analysts, and financial professionals deeper insight into China's money and capital markets. Three of the eight indicators¨Dthe Renminbi Pressure Indicator, the Chinese IPO Indicator, and the Market Adjusted Debt Indicator¨Dwere launched in November 2006. A Banking Strength Indicator and Adjusted Trade and Finance Indicator were launched in April 2007. The remaining indicators will be launched later this year. Time Period Coverage and Frequency The indicator covers the period from November 30, 1980, through March 2007. Data are available from the Milken Institute upon request. There will be a two- to four-month delay in reporting values for the indicator, depending on the release of information from authorities in China. Sources of Data The data used in the construction of the indicator are obtained from the International Monetary Fund, People's Bank of China, and State Administration of Foreign Exchange.

* Phase 1 Includes Promotion of TiVo's Localized Personal Video Recorder (PVR) Products In 5 Major Chinese Cities BEIJING, June 27 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- PacificNet, Inc. (Nasdaq: PACT), a leading provider of gaming technology, e-commerce and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) services in China, announced today that its subsidiary, PacificNet iMobile, has entered into an agreement with TiVo Greater China (TGC) to market their PVR/DVR products and services in China. Under this agreement, PacificNet iMobile will promote and distribute TGC products in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou as well as other major cities in China. PacificNet iMobile will expand its marketing channel from online sales to user trial activities. Leveraging PacificNet iMobile's ecommerce expertise in China and TGC's advanced technology and sales support, the two companies will provide quality PVR/DVR products to consumers across China. PVRs or Personal Video Recorders (also known as a "DVR" or Digital Video Recorders) improve home entertainment by providing consumers with an easy way to record, watch, and control television. DVR/PVR records broadcast television programming in a digital format on a hard disk drive rather than on a medium such as a VHS tape, allowing viewers to pause a live broadcast or replay video from a buffer, as well as the recording, timed-recording, and playback of their favorite television broadcasts. Established in 1997, TiVo has experienced significant growth as its products have proven popular with consumers in many markets worldwide. TiVo devices have evolved steadily with many new features such as DVD recording, commercial skip capability, sharing of recordings over the Internet, and programming and remote control using PDAs, networked PCs, or Web browsers. TiVo can be set to auto-record according to a programming timetable with 80GB of memory for up to 90 hours of recording. TiVo's many features have proven a complement and enhancement to the overall home entertainment experience. PacificNet iMobile currently has about 200 staff in China and operates its e-commerce business via two internet portals, "www.iMobile.com.cn" and "www.18900.com", and a WAP portal, "17wap.com", for mobile phone browsing. iMobile has the largest mobile user community in China, with over 3.4 million registered users while "18900.com" is the leading Internet e-commerce distributor of mobile products in China with logistic centers and partners covering 25 provinces and 72 major cities throughout China and service coverage for 1875 cities in China. In addition, iMobile's "18900.com" is the designated internet distributor for Motorola, Nokia, and NEC's mobile products in China. Liu Lei, PacificNet iMobile's General Manager, stated, "We are pleased to become partners of TiVo Greater China (TGC) and to help them promote their products in mainland China. TGC PVR provides interactive personal entertainment services through existing broadband and cable TV networks. It enhances the traditional passive way of watching TV. With a PVR, viewers are no longer constrained by the timetable of TV programs as broadcast by TV stations. Instead, PVR users can view whatever they want, whenever they want to watch it. We will use our expertise to help TGC boost its sales and increase its popularity among consumers in China." "We believe that the opportunity to work with one of the leading consumer video electronics providers in the world is substantial," said Victor Tong, President of PacificNet. "PacificNet iMobile has demonstrated its ability to support a wide range of online and offline marketing initiatives. With the growing demand for innovative consumer electronics in China, we feel that the potential to generate strong revenue from this relationship is significant.

Contract revenues expected to begin by mid-August NEW YORK, June 26 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Network CN Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: NWCN), a Chinese media and travel network company headquartered in Hong Kong, today announced that it has entered into an agreement to operate 52 two-sided rolling poster frame outdoor advertising panels located in the pedestrian mall on Nanjing Road (Nanjing Lu) in Shanghai. Network CN plans to convert 28 of the poster frames into LED digital video panels. Network CN will also convert the remaining 24 displays to bigger rolling light boxes to match the size of the new LED digital video panels. The agreement, which could generate revenues for the Company by mid-August, 2007, extends through January, 2011. It was signed between Shanghai Chuangtian Advertising Company Ltd. and Network CN's subsidiary, Shanghai Quo Advertising Company Ltd. "All the panels are located in the pedestrian mall on Nanjing Road, which positions them ideally to capture the attention of our clients' target audience. Together with the rights to two mega-size digital video billboards that we obtained in May 2007, we will have rolling light boxes, roadside LED panels and mega-size LED billboards covering the whole of Nanjing Road's pedestrian mall. This is another significant milestone in the expansion of our media network business in Shanghai, one of the key metropolitan areas in China," Godfrey Hui, Chief Executive Officer of Network CN, commented. "We are committed to creating value for our clients by leveraging our network coverage of the most exciting, highly visible areas in metropolitan China, spanning Beijing, Shanghai, Nanjing, and Wuhan." Nanjing Road is one of the most visited tourist attractions in Shanghai, with more than 600 stores, restaurants and art galleries. It is the "Number One Commercial Street in China" in terms of total annual revenues. The prominence of Shanghai is growing as the 2010 Shanghai Expo approaches, spotlighting the Company's outdoor media presence. "With the world-class events scheduled to take place in China in the next few years, we have secured a first-mover advantage in providing the highest-profile exposure for our clients' advertising," Mr. Hui added.
