At the press conference, multiple adaptations of online literature made their debut first. Adapted from the original work of the same name by the internet writer "Fenghuo Xi Zhuhou", "Sword Comes" adopts a unique ink particle art style to interpret the culture of "chivalry". The Lord of Secrets, created by the platinum writer "the squid who loves diving" of Yuewen Group, will also be adapted into animation. As a phenomenal work, this novel depicts the myth of Cthulhu with the brush strokes of oriental culture. The number of readers has exceeded 100 million. It dominated the list almost all year round in 2019. Within one year, it ranked first in nine monthly tickets and second in three monthly tickets, creating a historical record of online literature. Hou Xiaonan, CEO of Yuewen Group and Tencent Animation, stated that "The Mysterious Lord" has an epic and exquisite worldview setting, and the two sides are working together to launch an IP development matrix for the "Mysterious Universe", hoping that the "Mysterious Lord" animation can bring more excitement to Chinese animation.
In the eyes of Ma Yankun, Vice President of Tencent Online Video, anime is not simply a label of "passion, youth, and emotions", but more like a cutting-edge trend. She revealed that in the upcoming Chinese anime, "Yujia Lingyun Zhi" is a rare sci-fi mecha theme and further integrates traditional Chinese culture; "Gu Wei Nan Ting" is a fusion of modern, traditional culture, and feng shui culture, and is a modern adventure story spanning thousands of years. "Opening every work feels like entering a world that has never been explored before."

At the Anime Awards, Tencent Video announced that it will collaborate with China Mobile Games and Softstar Technology to develop a content matrix for the "Sword of Legends" series, using a dual expression of animation and gaming to lead users to revisit the world of Sword of Legends. Xiao Jian, Chairman and CEO of China Mobile Games, stated that currently, China Mobile Games has acquired the mainland copyright of the Xianjian Qixia Zhuan IP and has expanded into various content fields such as film and television dramas, animation, comics, novels, music, peripheral derivatives, offline live entertainment, and virtual idols.
The game "King of Glory" will also release its first official animated series "King of Glory Animation - Li Bai Chapter". Zhang Yusha, the head of global IP development for Honor of Kings, admitted that this animated series has been adapted by multiple teams for over three years. Compared to animation, games have limited space for storytelling, and we hope to work with video teams to create deeper content. The animated series "League of Legends - Battle of Two Cities", which was released in 2021 and achieved a high score of 9.0 on Douban, also plans to release its first offline product this year.
In the process of anime production, the application of new technologies such as AI can be seen. Zhou Wang, the head of Tencent's online video platform operations department and the group leader of Randong Universe Studio, introduced that the first anime adaptation of the well-known IP "Ghost Blows Out the Light: Returning to the South China Sea" adopts advanced USD full platform virtual technology; The Xianxia work "Xianni" uses ray tracing technology to present the audience with a fascinating and grand world.

Tencent Vice President and CEO of Tencent Online Video, Sun Zhonghuai, revealed that Tencent Video will continue to focus on the development of long-term IPs, layout multiple tracks, and increase investment to enhance the production capacity of animation through the application of new technologies, helping to further upgrade content quality.
