7. Glory and Dream

Glory and Dream, a 40-episode revolutionary TV series, chronicles the milestone chapters in the history of the Communist Party of China, ranging from the Party's founding to Red Army's Long March (1934-36) and Chinese People's Volunteers entering Democratic People's Republic of Korea to fight in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea (1950-53).

Featuring more than 400 characters mostly based on historical figures such as Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai, the drama interweaves a lot of incidents, conflicts and meetings that were pivotal to propel CPC's revolutionary victory.

Besides, there are also some touching scenes to unravel the lesser-featured personal moments of influential historical figures. For instance, in the opening scene of the first episode, Chairman Mao Zedong is shown missing his late wife Yang Kaihui, shedding tears alone in his study when he saw a wooden comb once used by Yang.
