Chinese TV shows that describe young people's lives in modern society are crossing the cultural divide and attracting a lot of foreign audiences.
One of the examples is the Chinese TV series "A Beautiful Daughter-in-law Era", a light comedy about a modern Chinese couple.
The TV series was first aired in Shanghai in November 2009. It was dubbed in Swahili and broadcast in east African countries in 2011. Two Kenyan(肯尼亚人) actresses were chosen to do voice dubbing for the two leading roles in the African version of the series. It was a great success in Africa.
Tanzanians(坦桑尼亚人) say that they are able to understand how young Chinese people live happily in modern times and they may be able to find ways to solve their personal problems by watching the series.

In recent years, some TV series that show the lives of people in Chinese cities have achieved some success in the foreign market.
"Go Lala Go!," a TV series that details the adventures of a female office worker named Du Lala, has also started to reach global audiences. The series has been exported to Singapore, Malaysia, the United States and Canada.
"The Chinese dream will be more easily accepted by foreign audiences when it is manifested in small and touching stories," said Meng Jian, a professor at Fudan University.
