周二，梦工厂动画公司(DreamWorks)称，该公司将在亚洲19个地区推出一个电视频道，包括韩国、台湾和香港。

不过，它最为觊觎的中国市场不在其中。

The channel’s programming will include DreamWorks Animation series like How to Train Your Dragon” and VeggieTales in the House,” which is aimed at preschool children.

Television has been an expanding focus of DreamWorks Animation, which has been trying to stabilize its financial performance by relying less on big-budget movies, the success of which can vary widely.

The studio — recently roiled by two failed mergers — notably has contracts to produce more than 1,100 episodes of original cartoon programming for Netflix.

电视成为梦工厂动画公司的扩张重点，该公司在努力稳定自己的财务状况，更少依赖大成本电影，因为这种电影能否成功变数很大。

最近，该公司因两次失败的兼并而有点动荡。

不过，值得注意的是，它与Netflix公司签署了多项合约，将为后者制作1100多集原创卡通节目。
