China has a great confidence

Big countries write his own name on sand

From the crisis of trust to the world savior, how does the Chinese government rebuild the "big country confidence" narrative.

The widely recognized self-confidence narrative also means that after repeated misses in January and February, the propaganda system finally regained the right to speak in the public opinion through the "opportunity" of domestic epidemic mitigation and global epidemic outbreaks.
Two months ago, the second day after New Crown Pneumonia was officially confirmed to be able to be passed on from people to the public, Hu Xijin, the editor-in-chief of the Global Times, issued three Weibo posts, calling on Wuhan Public Security Bureau to re-investigate "Investigation of 8 rumors" "Reporters" incident in response to the public's collective anger caused by failure to know in advance. More than a month ago, the anger caused by the death of Dr. Li Wenliang, the "whistleblower", was still raging. Hu Xijin said on Weibo that the authorities should make an apology for admonishing Li Wenliang.
Time entered March, and Hu Xijin's writing shifted to defend. On March 1, he quoted Zhong Nanshan's statement , saying that the source of the virus has not been identified so far, and that it should not be labeled regionally, and that China has quickly controlled the epidemic and turned the situation better than other countries. On March 12, he simply said "China is the whistleblower of the world."

As the vane of China's public opinion field, Hu Xijin, on the one hand, is a loyal guardian of the ruling party. On the other hand, he also tries to play an enlightened role in the party in public discussions in order to gain wider public support. Therefore, the change in the focus of his speech during the epidemic also roughly described the inflection point of mainstream public opinion.

The change in Hu Xijin ’s speech is, in a larger perspective, the Chinese propaganda system step by step, regaining the right to speak in public opinion, guiding folk emotions, and rebuilding the narrative process of “confidence in the great powers”. Is it possible to pay the price to realize the feudal feud, condemn the US conspiracy theory while stigmatizing China and create a "US army brings viruses into Wuhan", and further deny China's early accusations of concealing the epidemic, and shape China as a warning of the global epidemic and saver image.
