C-dramas make waves with overseas viewers
Producers of Chinese TV series find success in foreign markets, gaining more fans for the country's stories, Xu Fan reports.
"Chinese science fiction, with its captivating fusion of rich history, profound cultural insights and speculative philosophical traditions, encapsulates a distinctive societal and ethical perspective," says Chen.
"Moreover, rooted in Chinese traditional values that emphasize harmony between science, technology and nature, Chinese sci-fi stories have shaped their distinctive characteristics to differ from their Western counterparts," she adds.
Despite challenges such as cultural differences and the need to expand to more overseas distribution networks, a promising landscape is unfolding in the realm of Chinese television, suggesting a future where C-dramas secure a substantial share of the global TV market, a view shared by the insiders contacted by China Daily.
