CPOPwave 2026 spotlights Chinese trend IPs that have made a mark abroad — spanning animation, gaming, film and television. Among the ten selected cases was the wuxia title Where Winds Meet, which has drawn a growing international following. Reporter Liu Mohan tried the game herself, then spoke with Wen Jie, the game's head of publishing, about why a tale centered on an ordinary man connects with audiences who have never encountered the term "wuxia." She also talked with Wang Xuan, chief producer of CPOPwave, about how these works were gathered and presented on a global stage. Set along the town's canals and courtyards, the exhibition turned these IPs into experiences visitors could step into, touch and take home.
