Mandarin TV

Mandarin TV (Chinese: 欧洲卫视; also branded 欧视TV+) is a Chinese-language television channel based in France and operated by C-Média, a TV platform established in France. According to the channel's own description, C-Média works in collaboration with Zhejiang TV International (China) on the programme "Les Chinois en Europe" and with Demain TV (France) on the bilingual programme "C-demain", with the aim of promoting exchanges between Europe and China in history, culture and economics. The Mandarin TV channel was launched on 2 November 2015. The channel positions itself as "La Télé des Chinois d'Europe" (the TV of the Chinese in Europe) and offers a mix of news, documentaries and interviews, entertainment, feature programmes, and multi-screen shopping. Its website carries daily news bulletins in Chinese and bilingual formats, covering French and Chinese current affairs, community news from Chinese diaspora associations in France, and cultural events. It also features interviews with public figures, including a bilingual interview with 2026 Fields Medal winner Wang Hong. C-Média states that it holds the exclusive advertising rights for Zhejiang TV International across the entire European territory. Zhejiang TV International, part of the Zhejiang Radio & TV group, is described as the only channel of that group dedicated to overseas Chinese, broadcasting its programmes in more than 40 countries and regions across Europe, North America, South America, Southeast Asia and Oceania. The programme "Les Chinois en Europe" has reportedly produced more than 200 episodes since 2010, and the bilingual programme "C-demain" was first produced by C-Média and integrated into media from 1 December 2011. Mandarin TV serves the Chinese diaspora in France and Europe, particularly communities with roots in Zhejiang, and acts as a bridge for Franco-Chinese cultural and economic exchange. Its content is distributed online through its website, with live streaming and replay, and it maintains a presence in Paris, where it also participates in community and cultural events such as lectures at the Centre d'échanges culturels.
