Description
Summary:The country's negative image has hindered international acceptance of its rise as a global great power. Because the ruling Chinese Communist Party (CCP) wants China to "gain face" (yao mianzi) in the international arena, it has in recent years invested heavily in boosting the country's international approval rating. [...]some recent Hollywood films (for example, the 2015 movie Trainwreck) have added pro-China references, while others (such as the 2013 film Iron Man 3) have deleted plot elements that might have offended CCP political sensitivities.
