The highly anticipated documentary 'Hotline Beijing' will make its global debut on July 1 at 6:30 p.m. during primetime on China Central Television's movie channel (CCTV-6). The film will simultaneously stream on leading platforms including iQiyi, Tencent Video, and Youku, offering free access to audiences worldwide.
Produced to showcase diplomatic communication channels, the documentary provides rare insights into crisis management and international coordination mechanisms. Its release coincides with significant anniversaries in cross-cultural exchanges between China and global partners.
Director Li Wei told state media: "This project aims to demystify the critical infrastructure behind international dialogue. We hope it fosters greater understanding of multilateral cooperation processes."
Analysts suggest the timing aligns with growing international interest in Asian diplomatic strategies. The documentary's availability across multiple platforms makes it particularly accessible to overseas audiences and diaspora communities seeking to understand contemporary Chinese perspectives.
