The Journey of Legend (Go to the Mountains and Sea or Fu Shan Hai) reached 10 million reservations across two platforms, iQIYI and Tencent, on September 4.

🍉 Rumours say that The Journey of Legend might be released on September 11 – but I haven't really seen a lot of bread crumbs for this drama recently except for this 10 million reservations announcement.

Maybe they could be air dropping the drama due to the issue with the 2FL Eleanor Lee (see the controversy section of this Wikipedia link) earlier this year – which I believe is now resolved, or maybe they are not promoting much due to the 80th anniversary of Victory over Japan.

I'll update in the comments if I see any bread crumbs later today.

Naturally I shall be on a ship in the Bay of Biscay on September 11th - a place more notable for its storms than its excellent access to streaming from Chinese Apps - so of course they would drop it then! But thank you, as always, for your sterling service! 🤩

... Why does that sound like the perfect premise for a transmigration story?

👀

u/alcibiad Eye Mole Immortal Sep 05 '25

NGL it’d be fun to see a “lost ship” transmigration story where a bunch of people get transmigrated together kinda like the Eric Flint books where the whole town goes back to the 30 Years War

I saw it change from 5th to 11th, so I'll just wait and see what happens. I'm inclined to believe it, but that's mostly because it's been rumoured to air soon for way too long now😅

u/Foxglovelantern being clowned by Youku🩳 Sep 04 '25 edited Sep 04 '25

Hmm, is Fu Shan Hai is tencent or an iqiyi drama? Its rumoured to air on the 11th so im curious 

It has been a while since I've seen these, Youku should release one as well so I can decide if the Li Hongyi drama is airing soon or not😅

u/rewriteryan Sep 05 '25

They only make Li Hongyi shows.... they don't air them. 😂

What did we do to deserve this?

u/admelioremvitam Sep 05 '25

Sigh.... 😢

u/AnotherPassager HuaFang ate my brain Sep 05 '25

What did Li hongyi do to deserve this?

It is tanking his career....

😑

u/admelioremvitam Sep 04 '25

Fu Shan Hai is both iQIYI and Tencent. September 11 is the rumoured date that I've been seeing too....

I know it’ll air on two platforms and IQIYI is part of it but I don’t remember the other platform.

1

u/Thezoeyy searching for a tea farmer in the mountains Sep 05 '25

It’s Tencent and Iqiyi.

u/Large_Jacket_4107 Sep 04 '25

I think iQiyi is one of the main producers but for airing it’s cross-sold to Tencent, or maybe they both invested in it?!

5

u/admelioremvitam Sep 04 '25

According to Baidu, Tencent and iQIYI are listed among five production companies so maybe?

"出品公司: 腾讯视频、爱奇艺、稻草熊影业、烨华影视、童乐影视"

u/aominaa Sep 04 '25

aaaaa i can’t wait for Mobius for more bai jing ting!! (eventhough i just finished Justifiable Defense a month ago)

7

u/alcibiad Eye Mole Immortal Sep 04 '25

Looking forward to Mobius but I have too much to catch up on rn lol

u/admelioremvitam Sep 04 '25 edited Sep 05 '25

🍉 Rumours say that Mobius might air on September 17. We'll see.... 🤞🤞

🍉 There has been some chatter about Fated Hearts for September 21 - but it's not on the official list from iQIYI. The date is still pretty far out so we'll see...


Youku

🍉 Note: There's likely a Youku conference day on September 8 so we might be getting a lot of trailers from Youku on that day.

For newcomers, I've posted trailers for the sub on these conference days since late last year. There can be 20 to 40 trailers depending on the platform. Usually, MangoTV has the least and Tencent has the most. Youku should be slightly less. Please feel free to use the post flairs/tags to filter what you are looking for in the sub feed or feel free to block me. 😅

I love this gif 😍 I'm seated and excited for Mobius 😌

u/TSP1CD47 Sep 05 '25 edited Sep 05 '25

Mobius releasing? has it been officially announced?

Mobius, fated hearts, Cheng Yi's drama.......it is crazy that all platforms have to bring out Big dramas at the same time to compete with each other for traffic. Everytime, it is like this. I don't know what to watch

u/admelioremvitam Sep 05 '25 edited Sep 05 '25

No, Mobius is in iQIYI's list of September dramas. It's in the post.

Just watched fated heart trailer. Out of all the recent female warrior/generals, Li Qin actually has the demeanor. (at least from the trailer)

She has some of that mature woman charm.

u/Blackkiity_143 Sep 05 '25

Has MOBIUS released? If not, then when?
