7. Domestic TV dramas are big hits

Speaking of this year's TV dramas, the first one we can't ignore is The Knockout. The suspense-filled TV series grips domestic and overseas audiences with its creative writing and complex, multifaceted characters.

With an all-veteran cast and twisting plotline, the series has set rating records to top a total of 11 viewership rankings on the streaming site iQIYI and has reached a television audience of nearly 320 million with its broadcast on China Central Television's channel 8.

Simultaneously streamed overseas, the drama has been translated to more than eight subtitled languages, including English, Spanish and Korean, to reach viewers in North America, Southeast Asia and Europe.

Another TV series The Long Season also won praise this year. The drama's recommendation index was 96.7 percent on Tencent Video and got a score of 9.4 out of 10 on Douban, making it one of the highest-rated Chinese TV series.

Set in the fictional industrial city of Hualin in northeastern China from 1997 to 2016, the suspense crime story follows a long journey to discover how three people's fates have been changed by the "accidental" death of a young man.
