Colors different on Capture One workflow and Exported JPEG

Hi
I am using Capture One, and I after I finish with my editing, I generally export the variants.
But in the below set of images, there's too much difference in the color profiles of the two images....
I am not able to reproduce the same colors of export in the JPEG format to be the same as I see in my capture one workflow.
The first image is a screenshot of my capture one workflow, and the second one is the jpeg file that is exported.

  Hi,
  
  It's not easy to compare your posted images as it seems the first is much smaller than the second.
  
  What settings to you have in the Process recipe for the jpg output file and how is the Proof Profile set in the editor?

  Well, I do see a difference. It might be both some color and some contrast or saturation perhaps. Is hard to tell at the small size...
  
  I started a thread a couple weeks ago where I had noticed images exported and then viewed again in C1 itself didn't look as nice as when viewed elsewhere, outside C1. I thought I had screwed up some export setting. This was mostly crispness of the image but some little color. Turned out it was due to the preview in C1. At 100%, the images looked the same. So, if you are looking at the images in C1, that might be the cause.
  
  However, you colors are very different. Again, depends on what you are viewing them in. I have an old, 2001, image viewer I like. Images it displays look fine enough and it is fast. If I compare it to images in either C1 or even the image viewer bundled with Win 7, it doesn't look so pretty. I still like it for its use of sorting.
  
  Then, I put some images on the internet. They were exported with 'embed camera profile'. Sounds good and they looked fine at some web sites. At one image hosting service, I had an 'oh, my' moment. I needed to (and they meant it) use sRGB profile during export. Contrasty, burnt images fixed with the proper profile.
  
  There is a lot of black magic [ah, from my initiate point of view] in color matching and stuff and so in image exporting as well.
  Because I have had troubles, I think you will find your C1 is okay.
  You may need to check some settings or consider software used or etc...
  
  It has been a while since your post, has this resolved for you ?
