New Cdrama Trailers at the 2026 Tencent Video V Vision Conference

And the last compiled post for me! I won’t be doing these posts in the future because it’s too time-consuming and usually by the time I put the post up, most have seen the trailers on other platforms. No point in me rehashing another version. As always, I only included dramas with trailers since the stills will be in their individual post.

For those new to this routine, each streaming platform (tencent, mango, youku, iqiyi, etc) has a few conferences each year to showcase their upcoming dramas, roping in potential advertisements and interest.

Videos may take a few seconds to load.

Whispers of Fate takes Luo Yun Xi’s beauty to the next level, alongside Lin Yun, Chen Yao, and Xiao Shun Yao

Whispers of Fate (水龙吟) is adapted from the novel written by Teng Ping.

Synopsis per Viki: When an influential but fearsome clan is massacred in mysterious circumstances, the clan’s talented disciple Tang Li Ci (Luo Yun Xi) finds himself accused of masterminding the crime. Accusers say that Li Ci is a traitor who murdered his master. A decade later, suspicions about Li Ci linger, but much darker forces are conspiring to unleash chaos into the realm. Torn by his duality and his apparent inability to distinguish between good and evil, Li Ci finds himself drawn back into the wider world to help defeat the evil conspiracy – armed only with his wits and his martial arts skills. His path soon crosses with former acquaintances, with some swearing enmity and others allied to his cause. Can he and his companions help defeat the forces of wickedness – or will his dual nature prove his undoing?

You can read the translated novel here @ RBF Translates (In progress, as the original novel is NOT completed! Abandoned for over a decade, it has only been recently resumed by the author, lol.)

New Jin Yong Wuxia Universe announces air dates for the remaining Four Parts of Drama Series

I’m gonna try to understand what’s going on here Lol. I thought it was just a 5-part drama series focusing on the Five Greats of the Condor trilogy from Jin Yong’s novels. But now it looks like there’s a main part, the drama that aired last year The Legend of Heroes (金庸武侠世界), a remake of Legend of the Condor Heroes, then there’s a sequel/The Legend of Heroes Season 2, with no promo in sight. The second part consists of a 5-part drama series; with part 1 Hot Blooded already aired last year. Are you confused yet? XD

So in order…

(Main) The Legend of Heroes (金庸武侠世界) Aired 7/2024

Tencent has a lot of drama I’m keeping my eyes on for sure. Lol.
