The maritime Silk Road was a road of trade and cultural integration between China and the west. It brought China from land to sea. At the same time, it connects two oceans, connecting China, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and Africa. The maritime Silk Road was formed in the Qin and Han dynasties and flourished in the Tang and Song dynasties. The establishment of the 21st century maritime silk road is not only rooted in history, but also has a solid foundation in reality. It is of great significance and role in promoting economic development and cultural exchanges between China and the countries related to the maritime Silk Road.

The film crew shot across nearly 20 countries in Asia, Africa, Europe and Oceania, among which the ten ASEAN countries have the closest relationship with the maritime Silk Road in history and reality. Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, the Philippines, Myanmar, Vietnam and other countries are the main object of cooperation and filming location. The Maritime Silk Road documentary series, with vivid and real footage, records the legendary stories of people in these countries who stick to, explore, struggle and pursue their dreams. It will also demonstrate the far-reaching impact of the building of the 21st century Maritime Silk Road on the social and economic development and cultural prosperity of countries along the route from multiple perspectives including shipping, economy and trade, science and technology, culture, migration and dreams.
