Following a trilogy of Mid-Autumn Festival themed animations, the PLA Eastern Theater Command released another animated short film called "Dreams Come True on the Fuchun River" on Sunday, which marked China's National Day, expressing the shared cultural heritage and hope for reunification between the two sides of the Taiwan Straits.

The short film adopts a personification technique and features the ancient-style elves the "Master Wuyong" and "Remaining Mountain" in animated form. They vividly narrate the story of "The Master Wuyong Scroll" currently housed in the National Palace Museum in Taipei.

Inspired by the Escape from the British Museum, a series made by Chinese social media influencers, which centers on a jade teapot that turns into a woman and escapes from the British Museum, the two elves return to the Chinese mainland and reunite with the "Remaining Mountain Scroll" housed in the Zhejiang Provincial Museum, creating a story of reunification, and fulfilling dreams on the banks of the Fuchun River.
