Hunan Broadcasting System

Hunan Broadcasting System (湖南廣播電視台) is a state-owned media conglomerate headquartered in Changsha, Hunan Province, operating under the Propaganda Office of the Hunan Provincial Committee of the Chinese Communist Party. It was established on June 28, 2010, through a restructuring of the former Hunan Radio, Film and Television Group. The group operates multiple television channels and radio frequencies, and its most prominent outlet, Hunan Television (湖南衛視), is widely regarded as China’s second-most-watched channel after CCTV-1. Its official streaming platform, Mango TV (芒果TV), was launched in 2006 and hosts original and licensed content. Among the group’s best-known productions was Happy Camp (快樂大本營), a long-running variety show that aired from 1997 until it ceased broadcasting in late 2021.
