新浪将与阿里巴巴达成战略合作

　　SINA, China's leading online portal and operator of the most popular microblogging site, reported better-than-expected sales in the second quarter and said it will push forward the collaboration of Alibaba Group to drive income at its Weibo unit.

　　新浪，中国领先的门户网站和最受欢迎的微博网站运营商，发布了高于预期的第二季度销售额，并表示将推进与阿里巴巴集团的合作，从而在微博单元来创收。

　　Sales rose 20 percent year on year to US$157.5 million in the second quarter, higher than analysts' estimate of US$146.1 million compiled by Bloomberg News.

　　第二季度销售同比增长20%达至1.575亿美元，高于彭博新闻分析师预测的1.461亿美元。

　　"We're going to work on a number of opportunities to create new advertising formats for Taobao (vendors)," Sina chairman and chief executive officer Charles Chao told a conference call after the earnings release.

　　“我们将创造更多的机会来为淘宝(供应商)提供新的广告形式，”新浪董事长兼首席执行官曹国伟在发布财报后的一个电话会议中说。

　　Weibo contributed US$30 million worth of income in the second quarter, more than tripling from a year ago. Value-added services, mainly including online gaming income and membership fees, also nearly tripled to US$7.7 million.

　　中国最大的电子商务公司阿里巴巴集团在4月用5.86亿美元购买了微博18%的股份，击退了竞争对手如腾讯和京东商城。

　　Sina and Alibaba announced a partnership earlier this month and said they would unveil new advertising platforms for Taobao vendors to market their services or products on Weibo.
