With the continuous development of economic and technology, China’s TVindustry in the new century gradually emerged in the television market as such aphenomenon: the television broadcast platform and production platform did not matcheach other, which meant the television production made by the television productioncompany did not fully satisfy the needs of high-quality television broadcast stations,or the works of the television production company did not meet the targeting goals ofthe TV station. In this situation, a demand of the TV station producing its own TVseries was generated."Invincible Ugly", a drama made by Hunan Satellite TV in2008,won huge commercial profits and drew great attention from all parties, which led to aboom of China’s provincial satellite TV drama production.Hunan TV’s self-produced TV series are characterized by a long duration, largeproduction quantity and prominent production features, also representative in thedevelopment of national provincial satellite TV stations. So the Hunan TV’sself-produced TV series are chosen as the main research object, analyzingsystematically from the historical development, major characteristics andmarket-oriented operation.The first stage of its development is divided into three parts: First, fullyexploration and breaking through development (1987-2000). It was a stage that TVstation proceeded with early TV serial activities based on their capabilities, ratherthan self-conscious creation; the second is a stage characterized by bold innovationand constant development (1997-2007).
