With an appealing perspective reflecting China's latest achievements in the manufacturing industry, the TV series Fenjin de Xuanlvy (The Inspirational Melody) has recently made a splash since it began its run on CCTV-1, the flagship channel of China Central Television, on Feb 10.

Spanning from 2012 to 2019, the drama starring actor Li Dongxue and actress Yu Yue centers on the rise of a bearing enterprise through the stories of three families.

To pursue a realistic effect, the crew traveled to seven cities to shoot major scenes in local high-tech complexes, such as a tidal energy generating unit installed in Zhoushan, Zhejiang province, and a tidal energy laboratory in Chun'an county, also in Zhejiang.

Aside from learning technological terms and phrases, one of the biggest challenges for the crew was the weather.

When the TV series was shot in Wenzhou, Zhejiang province, the crew was almost stranded in heavy rains when two typhoons – named Lekima and Lingling -- consecutively landed in sea waters surrounding Zhejiang province in August and September last year.

Producers reveal the drama conveys a positive message about striving and passion, wishing it will inspire and encourage the Chinese people who are now battling the novel coronavirus pneumonia outbreak.
