As I said in a previous post, you’re worried because an area where over half of the world’s population lives finally getting recognized by people in other parts of the world?
Hey, it was on Tucker Carlson!
Closure for sure! Confirmation! Definitely.
Not in the ways the OP thinks but for sure and definitely.
Never let the simple economics answer suffice when there is a conspiracy and a controlling cabal to be imagined. Wow.
As a white American, I must have missed this, and much like your thesis in the OP I don’t agree that it exists.
Meh. You clearly like being manipulated. Whether or not and how much power they have is a matter of debate.
I heard confirmed that Carlson is a representative of the cabal of lizard overlords who manipulate everyone. Except their bosses: the dolphins. Who thanks us for the fish. Notably neither of those groups are white so there you have it!
Closure!

It is part of the Green New Deal for alternate power sources. If you contact a white to an anti-white it produces an enormous amount of energy.
That’s amazing, given that the U.S. establishment is 80% white:
All the crazy “anti white” conspiracy crap aside, there is, at least according to the US government, of course some kernel of truth to the Chinese government investing in influencing other nations’ media.

Also FWIW China has invested heavily in Hollywood and Hollywood has been eager to do well in the Chinese market. Right now though Hollywood is not doing so well there, facing stiff competition with China’s homegrown movie industry.
Asian faces is less the point there than Chinese political propaganda and favorable points of view.
I think that’s slightly harsh. Mostly it’s just somewhat different tastes…favourable points of view makes it sound all political.
Yeah there are some movies that have Chinese propaganda or selling some ideal of Chinese life, but most aren’t like that, they’re just movies.
(Incidentally, one of the most jingoist Chinese movies I’ve seen was wolf warrior 2 and it’s actually a really good action movie in spite of this)
And, as hinted in the article you linked (which was an excellent summary), there’s an irony here: Hollywood turned towards special-effects heavy blockbusters as those were easiest for all cultures to enjoy, but finds itself poorly positioned in both the east and west as audiences in both markets have tired of watching a CGI muscle man punch a CGI monster.
Propaganda does not imply a movie designed to focus on jingoism. It’s often small. The character change in Doctor Strange for Tibetan to Celtic. So on.
I know, I’m just saying that when we’re talking about films made in China for Chinese audiences, and in the context of why these movies are starting to push out Hollywood, we’re mostly talking about the different cultural touchpoints / aspirations etc between the markets.
