I posted a podcast episode about Youku's and IQIYI's conferences and all of the dramas they announced. Here is Tencent's episode for the podcast. Once to twice a year, the major web platforms in China holds events to announce their upcoming dramas they plan to release/start to make in the following year and/or for the rest of the year. This event is to gain excitement for these upcoming dramas and to let people what Cdramas to get excited for.

Earlier this week, Tencent held this event for the Cdramas to be released for the rest of 2024 and new Cdramas to be released/made in 2025. In this episode, I talk about the Chinese dramas that caught my attention and explain why I am excited for the dramas I list. Just like I did with the other 2 cdrama networks in their respective podcast episodes.

I did not like as many dramas with Tencent as the other 2 networks so, this episode is shorter due to me not liking even 20 cdramas from Tencent. What upcoming Tencent Cdramas caught your attention? What are you excited for?
