Nadopro: iQIYI's Professional Film & TV Production AI Agent PlatformIntroduction
What is Nadou Pro
Nadou Pro is China's first AI agent platform for professional film and television production, launched by iQIYI. It is not just a simple collection of AI tools, but a production platform that integrates large models, intelligent agents, IP resources, digital asset libraries, and commercial monetization. It was officially announced for commercial use on April 20, 2026, at the iQIYI World Conference.

Features
Nearly 70 intelligent agents covering the entire film and television workflow: including screenwriting, directing, art design, scene generation, one-shot continuous filming, editing/shot-by-shot analysis, and other stages
Multi-model aggregation: Built on iQIYI's self-developed Qizhi large model, integrating the latest versions of mainstream large models such as Jimeng, Kling, Vidu, Hailuo, and Wan, supporting multimodal generation including text, image, video, and audio
Original features: Agents like "Material Broad Search" and "Blockbuster Prompts" mainly address the issues of high randomness and inconsistency in characters and scenes when AI generates long-form content
One-click novel-to-script conversion: The screenwriting agent can transform novels into AI-driven film and television content, while also providing professional script evaluation and analysis
Precise director-level control: Supports professional film and television language including lighting adjustments, camera movement definitions, and character blocking
One-shot continuous filming generation: Low-cost generation of continuous long takes lasting dozens of seconds
Nadou Pro Exclusive Resources
IP Library: Opens access to iQIYI's nearly 20 years of accumulated scripts, novels, comics, and film/TV works, supporting secondary adaptation and conversion of long series into mid- or short-form series

Digital Asset Library: Includes three categories of public resources—scenes, props, and virtual images/digital humans—supporting one-click access
Commercial Loop: Deeply integrated with iQIYI accounts and revenue-sharing systems, allowing works to be directly distributed on the platform

Aggregates multiple models, eliminating the hassle of switching between different tools, providing one-stop coverage of the entire workflow
Backed by iQIYI's IP, artist, and distribution resources, forming a complete loop from creation to monetization

Cons:
Currently in the early stages of commercial launch, with some agents still in the planning phase
Has a certain learning curve for creators, requiring understanding of some professional film and television terminology

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between Nadou Pro and ordinary AI video tools?
A: Ordinary tools focus on single-point generation, such as text-to-video; Nadou Pro covers the complete workflow from script and storyboard to finished film, and incorporates the professional division-of-labor methodology of the film and television industry.
Q: Do I need a professional film and television background to use it?
A: No. The platform's goal is to lower the technical threshold. Creators only need to provide narrative, aesthetics, and creativity, while the production system is automatically executed by the platform.
Q: How are works monetized?
A: Works enter iQIYI's distribution system directly through Nadou Pro, with revenue shared based on the project's actual income, with no cap on earnings; AIGC content receives an additional 20% subsidy.
Q: What content formats are supported?
A: Covers all categories including films, long series, mid-length series, short dramas, comic dramas, documentaries, children's content, and animation.
Q: Does it support team collaboration?
A: The platform will subsequently launch an online creator community that supports sharing workflows, exchanging experiences, and undertaking commercial production projects.
Platform Review
What makes Nadou Pro different is that it condenses the methodology of the film and television industry into AI workflows. Creators can use natural language to access professional film and television materials as references, transforming "gacha-style generation" into "near live-action quality" controllable creation. The first batch of beta works from "Brodrick Leung · iQIYI AI Theater"—16 works in total—has already validated its commercial-grade film and television production capabilities.

The Public Opinion Storm Triggered by the "AI Artist Library"
Outbreak of Controversy
At the 2026 iQIYI World Conference, it was announced on-site that "over 100 artists have agreed to join the Nadou Pro Artist Library," with a photo wall featuring artists such as Ma Su, Zeng Shunxi, and Cheng Lei displayed on the big screen. That afternoon, #iQIYIIsCrazy# topped Weibo's trending searches.
Artists Issue Urgent Clarifications
Zhang Ruoyun's studio was the first to issue a statement: "We have not signed any AI-related authorization; our legal team is handling this urgently."
Artists including Yu Hewei, Wang Churan, Li Yitong, and Chen Zheyuan also subsequently spoke out, denying having signed any AI authorization.
iQIYI Issues Urgent Response
The official statement said that joining the library only represents artists' intent to discuss AI film and television project collaborations; whether they will participate and in what form requires separate negotiation on a per-project basis.
CEO Gong Yu posted multiple clarifying messages on Weibo and released the original on-site conference video, emphasizing that "technology is never meant to replace people."
