Because people who brag about that have historically always defeated the commies. Yep, always.

"Sir, China has started their amphibious assault on Taiwan"
"Send in Sydney Sweeney"
Tits, no matter how nice, do not a golden age make.
Apple wouldnt exist without China...
Meh, she’s no Philomena Cunk.
I learnt about her just the other week. Holy shit. I’ve never laughed so fucking hard
"Did king Arthur come a lot?"
Cutting edge Infrastructure, healthcare, affordable housing, affordable groceries, affordable education and a government that executes corrupt oligarchs and politicians….but yea we got some b rate actress, basketball and a corrupt corporation that licks chomo Caligula’s boots and manufactures their products in china anyway ….cool
Someone's feeling generous with the B rating.
If I were to pick a US celebrity it would be RuPaul.
I'm intrigued that he also picked a company that makes it products in China instead of the Trump Phone. It should be out by now... Right?
Trump Phone make their phones overseas too because it's impossible to make a phone in the US
This is where you are wrong, at least for now. Trump Phone is never getting made, it was all a scheme to get money from gullible people.
I do want to see where China goes with soft power.
I'm ashamed about the amount of my life I've wasted in Genshin and Where Winds Meet, but it still feels like the a lot of their cultural exports haven't cracked the "just exotic enough for broad global appeal" that big-brand anime or K-pop have hit.
If nothing else, imagine they treat it with the same strategic importance they gave industrial dominance. There would be a room full of very stern and sincere Vice-Ministers for Waifu Development and Fanboy Accelerstion.

Because China doesn't give a shit about what Westerners think of their media. Most Japanese and Korean media, certainly the big name big budget ones, are very intentional and strategic about capturing the Western market because it's part of their business model and they depend on Western revenue to get a sufficient return. I'm part of the Chinese diaspora and my parents have to VPN into China or rely on pirate reuploads hosted on YouTube or otherwise outside China just to watch their favourite shows because the Western entertainment market is irrelevant to the producing companies.
Same with games actually. Genshin and similar are specifically designed for the Western market and AFAIK isn't even a drop in the bucket compared to the ecosystem of Chinese domestic games that you've never heard of because they don't get marketed anywhere else. China really doesn't give nearly as much of a shit about pop culture "influence" beyond its borders as most Western countries do.
They have quite a bit of work to do though, with all the slander they've endured.
I feel like Mr Biao and other TikTok phenomena are a part of that soft power thing
Dumplings, fireworks and the monkey king 🤭
