CHF Entertainment, Yecheng Shanghai Media, Wings Media and China Telecom have launched the preschool series Pip Ahoy! on IPTV, SVOD and satellite channels across China.

The first 52 episodes of Pip Ahoy! have already been dubbed into Mandarin. The show premiered simultaneously on a number of networks, including Shanghai Online, Shanghai IPTV and BesTV. Additional IPTV and SVOD platforms will be revealed in the near future, with the series becoming available on demand in up to 900 million homes around the country.

CHF Entertainment is also working with Wings Media on a 26-episode third season of Pip Ahoy! that is slated for delivery at the end of this year.

Jenny Johnstone, the commercial director at CHF Entertainment, remarked: “We are very excited to be working with Yecheng, Wings Media (SMG) and China Telecom in this fascinating and growing market. We have received some great feedback for the series which has already encouraged licensing and merchandising interest too—a very promising start.”

Tong Zhou, consultant for CHF China, added: “Here at Yecheng Media we have been working with CHF Entertainment to secure and manage collaborative partnerships for Pip Ahoy! such as those with China Telecom and Wings Media (SMG). The series has been very well-received across many platforms. We are very much looking forward to building a pan-Asia presence for Pip Ahoy! and supporting CHF Entertainment across its entire portfolio.”
