China's National Meteorological Center has issued an orange alert for Typhoon Soulik, as the super-typhoon moves across Taiwan.
The typhoon is now moving toward waters east of Taiwan, packing winds of 173-kilometers per hour.
It is expected to land on the mainland on Saturday.
Fishermen in Taiwan's coastal 1 areas are getting prepared for the storm.
"This typhoon is pretty strong, so those who are living by the sea have to be prepared. We have to tie things down otherwise things could get blown away and could get damaged."
While forecasters are expecting Soulik to lose power as it approaches the mainland coast, authorities in Fujian are warning the storm is still going to be one of the strongest to hit the province in years.
Three ferry links between Fujian and Taiwan have also been suspended.
Soulik is forecast to roll through Fujian on Saturday before moving north into Jiangxi and Anhui where it is expected to lose power.
