Legendary Dutch Diplomat's Novel Made Into TV Series by Chinese Video Platform

Celebrated Cases of Judge Dee, a globally bestselling detective novel, is soon to make its debut as a television series titled Judge Dee’s Mystery. The trailer has been released on multiple social media platforms by Chinese video platform Youku recently, according to Panoramist Consulting.

Celebrated Cases of Judge Dee was written by Robert Hans van Gulik (1910 ~ 1967), a Dutch diplomat and sinologist who was stationed in China in the 1940s. Thanks to his outstanding linguistic talent and diligence, he achieved many academic accomplishments outside of his diplomatic career.

In his masterpiece Celebrated Cases of Judge Dee, while describing a series of cases solved by Judge Dee, the author also introduced plenty of culture and customs of the Tang Dynasty in China. Once the novel was published, it became very popular in the West, and has been translated into several languages and published worldwide, greatly contributing to the West's understanding of China.

Thomas van Gulik, son of Robert, has been following the production of the TV series for a long time. “We are very excited about the launch of the series on Chinese TV. We are now very happy that the series is ready!” he said.

“In the West, the master detective Judge is well-known, just as Sherlock Holmes, Maigret or Miss Marple,” Thomas said proudly.

“I think the series will have great impact, especially on the younger public who might not be very familiar with Judge Dee,” Thomas continued.

Many of Dee’s fans have also been waiting for this TV series for a long time. “The trailer looks good. I am looking forward to it and I am ready to be amazed,” commented a YouTube user.

More fans left comments online to express their eagerness to see the English version of the TV series: “Please please please broadcast this drama with English subtitles.” “Looks like a solid movie. If it launches with English subtitles I would watch it.” “Will it be aired in Holland? Where can I watch it?”

“Hopefully, the series will also become available for the Western public,” Thomas added.

Stabilizing Grids and Cutting Costs in Half: Europe Is Banking on Grid-Relevant Storage Systems3.6.2026 15:50:00 CEST | Press release

The European battery market is scaling up at record speed: According to the latest Solar+ Report from SolarPower Europe, at the end of 2025, the installed storage fleet in the EU had reached a total capacity of 40 gigawatts (GW) and a storage capacity of 77 gigawatt hours (GWh). This is an increase of over 45 percent compared to the previous year. By 2030, the study’s Solar+ scenario forecasts that capacity will quadruple to 171 GW, while storage capacity will increase eightfold to 598 GWh. As growing solar and wind capacities place increasing demands on European grids, storage systems will need to shift electricity over many hours. As a result, the average storage duration will go up from 1.9 to 3.5 hours. This represents a technological leap that underscores the need to establish more grid-relevant storage systems. Taking place in Munich from June 23–25, ees Europe will showcase how the industry is meeting this enormous demand. As Europe’s largest exhibition for batteries and energy
