Interactive International Bulk Trade Television

摘要

The invention is a method for advancing international trade in bulk goods and related services employing interactive international video broadcasting medium. The broadcaster enters a contract (110) with a manufacturer for listing a product for bulk sales on an international broadcasting medium and authorizing the broadcaster to be a surety for payment and delivery of said product, to receive payment from the buyer and to make a net payment to the manufacturer on the terms of the purchase. The broadcaster then broadcasts the listing (120) on the interactive international video broadcasting medium, which enables viewers to place an order (130) for the product on the specified terms and conditions. Any order is then conveyed to the manufacturer (140) for acceptance. The broadcaster, as surety, accepts payment for accepted orders (150). The broadcaster then transmits the net payment to the manufacturer (160) upon satisfaction of the terms and conditions of the sale, or to the buyer for unsatisfied (170) terms and conditions.
