BEIJING, Sept. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On September 23, iQIYI, China's leading online entertainment platform, unveiled a slate of over 350 new titles for 2026–2027 at its iJOY Conference in Shanghai. The company highlighted significant advancements in its All in AI strategy, aimed at revolutionizing long-form content production and fostering a dynamic creator ecosystem. Additionally, iQIYI introduced an upgraded marketing framework, showcasing its commitment to driving innovation across content development and commercial growth.

In his opening remarks, iQIYI Founder and CEO Yu GONG laid out three strategic priorities driving the company's AI agenda: applying the technology across premium live-action and long-form AIGC production, building a healthy content creator ecosystem, and pioneering new content formats enabled by emerging technologies. At the heart of this vision is a commitment to creators. GONG introduced seven dedicated creator service programs built around the vision to make the platform "a community for film and television creators and audiences" where every creator can be seen, earn sustainably, and be recognized.

Premium Content Slate Across Genres

China's film and television industry is entering a period of profound change. iQIYI Chief Content Officer Xiaohui WANG highlighted three major shifts reshaping the industry: the rapid move toward a C2C era of broad creative participation, the rise of a "Minority" era shaped by increasingly niche demand, and the Platinum era, where emotional value commands a premium. He said these shifts would help break the industry's current deadlock of audience fragmentation, narrowing creative scope, and rigid cost structures. As AI makes creation accessible to more people, anyone can become a creator. With generative tools in their hands, ordinary people can collectively become a powerful force driving the industry forward.

In response to these shifts, iQIYI has deployed a diverse, youth-oriented slate of long-form dramas spanning contemporary, historical, romance, suspense, and sci-fi genres. The lineup will bring together top-tier, high-profile actors and acclaimed creative teams across a range of premium productions, while continuing to expand offerings with warm, emotionally engaging stories that resonate with younger audiences.

The platform is also scaling its horizontal-screen, short-form drama presence through three specialized branded theaters, expanding premium supply to serve a broader range of audience needs.

In vertical-screen micro-drama and animation, iQIYI is leveraging established long-form IPs, pairing top talent with diverse themes, and using AIGC to accelerate series development.

In variety shows, the platform maintains a robust portfolio of returning flagship franchises and creative originals, complemented by a co-investment program with Douyin to incubate premium creator-produced variety content and discover new creative voices.

Onsite, representatives from iQIYI and Galaxy Arena announced that the 2026 iQIYI Scream Night will take place on December 5 at Galaxy Arena in Macao. Under the two parties' strategic partnership, the event will return to Galaxy Arena for another three-year residency from 2026 to 2028. As one of iQIYI's flagship annual entertainment events, Scream Night celebrates the year's standout content and creators while highlighting major industry trends.

Premium Content as Foundation, AI as Enabler

At the conference, iQIYI unveiled the trailer for its first full-length hybrid AI multi-season drama "Immortals Over Mortal Love". Leveraging NadouPro, iQIYI's proprietary studio-grade production platform, the series seamlessly integrates cutting-edge filmmaking technology with live-action performances by professional actors. The first season is slated to premiere in the fourth quarter of 2026, featuring 16 episodes of around 20 minutes each.

"This series will open a new chapter for iQIYI and the broader industry," Yu GONG said. "This is not only a technological breakthrough, but a paradigm shift in content creation. AI is empowering our content creation across the board, enhancing the efficiency of premium live-action production, expanding the boundaries of long-form AIGC, improving content creation efficiency, enriching the ecosystem, and delivering more diverse entertainment experiences to users."

The commercial viability of long-form AIGC was validated by "The Ferry Man" series, whose first two installments recouped their production costs within the first week of release. The series generated more than RMB 8 million (approximately US$1.19 million) in cumulative platform revenue-sharing earnings in its first month.

In addition, several feature-length AIGC films from the "Peter Pau • iQIYI Film Theater" were unveiled at the event, with genres spanning adventure, suspense, action, romance, and animation. The initiative is designed to help move AIGC from experimental shorts toward commercially viable feature-length productions. From over 100 global submissions, nine projects were selected for production, with Academy Award-winning Cinematographer and Director Mr. Peter Pau providing comprehensive guidance to ensure high-level professional standards.

Upgraded Marketing Powered by Data and Algorithm

At the event, iQIYI launched the industry's first big-data marketing system designed for household terminals, shifting the focus from individual behaviors to long-term family needs and life stages. The company also co-published the "Content Touchpoint Value Research Report" with Miaozhen Systems, China's leading intelligent marketing platform, offering data-driven insights into how brand advertising translates into sustained business growth. By leveraging AI – from generative content creation to scalable in-drama product placements – iQIYI is evolving brand marketing from a cost-saving exercise into a driver of measurable commercial effectiveness.

Looking ahead, iQIYI remains committed to pioneering AI-driven innovation across its content and marketing ecosystems. By fostering deep collaborations with creators, brands, and industry partners, iQIYI aims to catalyze high-quality growth and redefine the entertainment landscape, delivering next-generation premium experiences to audiences worldwide.

Envision Energy Launches Model T - EN175/8.0 Onshore Wind Turbine, Advancing Plant-Wide Optimization and Lifecycle Value for Future Energy Systems

HAMBURG, Germany, Sept. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Envision Energy, a global leader in green technology, today launched the Model T – EN175/8.0, an 8 MW-class smart onshore wind turbine featuring a 175-meter rotor, at WindEnergy Hamburg. Designed for medium-wind-speed sites and complex operating environments, the new turbine combines advanced aerodynamics, integrated drivetrain technologies and AI-powered autonomous optimization to deliver greater energy yield, reliability and lifecycle value.

The EN175/8.0 is built on Envision's proven Model T platform, which has accumulated more than 4,000 units ordered and around 1,500 units installed to date. Building on this platform experience, the new turbine integrates Envision's sixth-generation low-noise aerodynamic technology, in-house designed and manufactured key components, and Galileo autonomous optimization control, powered by Envision's Tianji Weather Foundation Model and Dubhe Energy Foundation Model.

"The next generation of wind power is not simply about making turbines larger. It is about making them smarter, more reliable and more valuable throughout their lifecycle." said Lou Yimin, Senior Vice President & Chief Product Officer of Envision Energy, "With the Model T – EN175/8.0, we are combining proven platform engineering with AI-powered autonomous optimization to help customers capture more energy, operate more efficiently and create greater value at the plant level."

Higher Energy Yield, Lower Lifecycle Economics

With a 175-meter rotor and 8.0 MW rated capacity, the EN175/8.0 is designed to increase energy capture at medium-wind-speed sites. Compared with existing models, the turbine can deliver a 2–12% increase in energy yield, depending on site conditions. Its lifecycle economics are further supported by Envision's vertically integrated approach to the design and manufacturing of key components, including blades, gearboxes and generators. Coordinated optimization across components, system integration and manufacturing helps improve performance while supporting quality and cost control throughout the turbine lifecycle.

The turbine also incorporates Envision's sixth-generation low-noise airfoils and newly developed serrated trailing edges, validated through wind-tunnel testing. The EN175/8.0 targets a sound power level of 107 dB(A), with optional low-noise operating modes available for noise-sensitive projects.

Proven Platform, Designed for Reliability

The EN175/8.0 builds on the Model T platform, which has been deployed at scale and accumulated extensive operating experience. Envision's vertically integrated system approach enables coordinated optimization across the turbine's major components. In-house design and manufacturing of blades, gearboxes and generators provide greater control over component performance, manufacturing quality and system integration.

The platform is also supported by industrial-scale testing capabilities covering materials, components and subsystems. Test results are incorporated into the Galileo digital twin, enabling continuous validation and refinement of design models.

Built for Diverse and Challenging Conditions

The EN175/8.0 is designed for diverse and challenging onshore environments, supporting deployment across complex wind conditions and mountainous terrain, with configurations available for regions with higher extreme wind speeds. The turbine offers both normal- and cold-climate configurations. For icing-prone environments, an optional blade ice-prevention system is also available. The system incorporates multiple heating zones for more precise thermal control and is integrated with the turbine's lightning protection architecture.

Grid-Ready, AI-Powered for Autonomous Optimization

As power systems incorporate increasing shares of variable renewable energy, wind turbines need to contribute more actively to grid stability. The EN175/8.0 combines full-power converter architecture with advanced grid-forming controls, enabling stronger voltage and frequency support, rapid fault ride-through response and reliable operation in weak-grid conditions.

A key differentiator of the EN175/8.0 is its AI-enabled control architecture. Powered by Envision's Tianji Weather Foundation Model and Dubhe Energy Foundation Model, the turbine is able to perceive operating conditions, analyze real-time data and autonomously adjust control strategies. Rather than relying solely on predefined control rules, Galileo continuously adapts turbine operation to changing wind and operating conditions. This enables more intelligent optimization across multiple variables, helping improve efficiency, stability and overall turbine performance while reducing the need for manual intervention.

From Turbine Optimization to Plant-Wide Value

The Model T platform is designed to extend beyond the optimization of an individual turbine. Through integrated coordination of wind, solar, energy storage and industrial loads, Envision aims to help customers optimize renewable power assets as an integrated energy system. This approach enables value to be optimized across the full chain, from energy generation and asset operation to power management and plant-level economics, helping customers improve flexibility, efficiency and overall returns.

"The future of wind is increasingly connected to the wider energy system," added Lou. "The value of a turbine should not stop at the electricity it generates. By connecting AI, wind, storage, solar and loads, we can move from optimizing individual machines to optimizing the value of the entire future energy systems."

The Model T – EN175/8.0 is part of Envision's broader strategy to develop intelligent renewable energy technologies that combine high-performance hardware, AI and digital intelligence to support the evolution of future energy systems.

CGTN: Why the world is watching the Xi-Trump meeting: Steering China-US ties, shaping the future

CGTN published an article on Chinese President Xi Jinping's state visit to the United States. Drawing on the stories of young Americans who have engaged with China and Xi's latest announcement inviting 100,000 young Americans to China over the next five years, the article highlights how head-of-state diplomacy is shaping the direction of China-US ties while examining the broader global significance of cooperation between the two countries.

BEIJING, Sept. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- For Marlon Forrester and Joey Zhang, a letter to Chinese President Xi Jinping brought an unexpected reply.

The two were among nearly 100 students from 10 US universities who recently participated in youth exchanges in China. After the trip, they wrote to Xi to share what they had seen and experienced. A reply arrived on the eve of Xi's state visit to the United States.

In an exclusive interview with CGTN, Forrester, a Harvard faculty member, and Zhang, a Columbia University student, said the experience made them feel part of a new generation carrying forward exchanges between the two countries. They described Xi's engagement with young people as "planting seeds" and "laying a foundation" for future exchanges.

There may be many more such stories ahead. At a White House welcome ceremony on September 24, Xi announced that China will invite 100,000 young Americans to visit China for exchanges and study over the next five years.

This commitment highlights how high-level decisions translate into the real-life experiences of ordinary people and further illustrates why the world is watching as China and the US shape the future of their relationship.

Steering the course of China-US ties

Frequent interactions between Xi and US President Donald Trump in 2026 have steadily steered the giant ship of China-US relations forward.

During a phone call in February, Xi and Trump agreed to "accomplish more big things and good things," with Xi urging both nations to make 2026 a year of advancing toward mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation.

Three months later, Trump visited China. The two presidents spent nearly nine hours together and reached a milestone political consensus to build "a constructive China-US relationship of strategic stability."

For Xi, setting the direction is only the beginning. "Building a constructive China-US relationship of strategic stability is neither an expedient measure nor something that can be achieved overnight," he told Trump in Washington, calling on both sides to implement their consensus with the "spirit of driving the nail."

That effort is reflected in flourishing people-to-people ties. From students at Lincoln High School in Washington State to youth groups from Maryland and Florida, Xi has repeatedly responded to letters and encouraged young people to become a new generation of friendship envoys.

Economic ties offer another solid foundation. According to China's Ministry of Commerce, as of July 2026, US companies had established over 84,000 foreign-invested enterprises in China, with investment growing 7.8% year on year in the first half of the year. A survey of 175 US companies by the US-China Business Council revealed that 95% viewed their China operations as vital to global competitiveness.

Responsibility extending beyond two countries

The stakes of the China-US relationship extend far beyond Beijing and Washington.

At the White House, Xi said "China-US cooperation may not solve every problem in the world. But, without our cooperation, it would be hard to solve many of the world's problems."

He called on both sides to "lengthen the list of cooperation, and shorten the list of issues," pointing to areas ranging from trade and investment to artificial intelligence, counternarcotics, law enforcement and direct flights.

Sun Taiyi, an associate professor at Christopher Newport University, noted that bilateral cooperation reduces market uncertainty, manages tech risks, and improves crisis communication. "Even limited cooperation can generate important positive spillovers for global stability."

AI governance is drawing particular global focus. "Both China and the United States are leading nations in artificial intelligence," Xi said in the meeting, emphasizing their shared responsibility to ensure AI remains "under human control and serves the well-being of the people."

Wang Honggang, director of the Institute of Peaceful Development at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, added that joint AI governance would be a prime example of China-US cooperation benefiting the world.

Global public opinion reflects these stakes. A CGTN survey across 39 countries showed that 75% of respondents – rising to 78.3% in developing nations – consider stable China-US relations vital to the international community.

With China hosting the APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting and the US hosting the G20 Summit this year, global focus will closely follow how the two leaders interact, sustain communication, and expand cooperation.

As Xi put it in his White House speech, "China and the United States, as two major countries, shoulder a historic responsibility of advancing human development and progress."

HONG KONG, Sept. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The ICAC, the Hong Kong International Academy Against Corruption, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) and the Global Operational Network of Anti-Corruption Law Enforcement Authorities (GlobE Network) jointly organised the pioneering "Professional Development Programme on Unmasking Hidden Wealth: Strengthening Investigations into Illicit Enrichment" from September 7 to 16, drawing participation of 35 graft-fighters and law enforcers from 19 jurisdictions to expound on investigation of illicit enrichment crimes.

Speaking at the opening ceremony of the programme, Acting Commissioner Mr Ricky Yau Shu-chun said, "Illicit enrichment strikes at the heart of public trust and institutional integrity. When public officials accumulate unlawful wealth, it deprives communities of vital development opportunities. Graft fighters must crack down this crime to restore justice, uphold accountability, and safeguard economic foundations. Tracing, exposing, and recovering illicit assets of public officials is far more than a technical skill, it is the fundamental imperative for safeguarding the rule of law and preserving the integrity of the global financial architecture."

Yau also noted that investigators worldwide required advanced and forward-looking learning opportunities to tackle illicit enrichment. He encouraged participants to share their diverse experiences and forge the professional networks to unmask hidden wealth for advancing a just and equitable world.

Chief Law Enforcement and Strategic Networks Section of the UNODC, Mr Neil Walsh, said in the ceremony that investigators' ability to track, freeze and recover illicit enrichment is of utmost importance. He anticipated that the strategic partnership between the UNODC and the ICAC would help various law enforcement agencies nurture new experience, thus enabling better investigation and intelligence.

The 10-day course is a specialised training co-hosted by the ICAC and the UNODC with a focus on specific corruption area. Previous courses co-organised include the "Professional Development Programme on Financial Investigation and Asset Recovery" and "Professional Development Programme on Empowering Integrity: Mastering Artificial Intelligence & Technologies in Anti-Corruption", etc. The present course focused on the exchange and application of investigation experience. Through seminars, case studies and exchanges, directorates and forensic accountants of the Commission examined relevant legal frameworks, tracing of illicit assets, modus operandi of money laundering, crypto-related crimes and relevant preventive measures with course participants.

Speakers from international organisations, academics and industry experts were invited for professional knowledge sharing. While the Basel Institute on Governance from Switzerland examined the strategies and practical challenges in tracing illicit assets, the Hong Kong Jockey Club shared their insights on preventing money laundering of crime proceeds from gambling. Moreover, the City University of Hong Kong illustrated the criminal psychology of illicit enrichment, and blockchain specialist expounded on tracing crime proceeds in crypto transactions, etc. Participants became well-versed in illicit enrichment investigation, asset tracing, latest financial crime trend and application of effective investigative skills.

The course also featured a four-day study tour to Guangzhou, during which participants visited relevant law enforcement agency and large enterprises, gaining first-hand experience on how to identify, manage and investigate illicit enrichment, as well as corresponding measures and practical challenges in law enforcement, etc. Participants also visited the Legislative Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, where participants exchanged with legislative councillors over the work on the fight against corruption and asset recovery.

The training attracted middle and senior management officials from law enforcement departments and policymakers from 19 countries and regions, including Indonesia, Kuwait, Madagascar, Malta, Mauritius, Mongolia, Montenegro, Nigeria, Oman, Republic of Korea, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Thailand, Tonga and Ukraine. Also attending the programme are officials from the Guangdong Provincial Commission of Supervision, the UNODC Regional Corruption and Financial Crime Hub for South-East Asia and the Pacific, the Commission Against Corruption of Macao SAR, the Hong Kong Police Force, the Customs and Excise Department, the Securities and Futures Commission and the Hong Kong Jockey Club.
