Last June Rainbow signed in Beijing an agreement with CCTV, the national television broadcaster of China, for the airing of the TV series Winx Club in the Mandarin language. The first series was broadcast in September, while in the spring of 2014 was created the official website of Winx Club in China (http://www.winxclub.cn/cn), which already has record numbers.
