"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.
