With cinema takings in the United States at a 22-year low, Hollywood moguls are looking to an unlikely saviour: China. With box office revenues growing at 9 percent, Hollywood is scrambling to find the formula for movies that make the cut of China’s 34 approved films and appeal to Chinese audiences. For every surprise hit, like The Meg and Warcraft, there are flops like The Great Wall. Like many an autocrat before him, Xi Jinping is enamoured of the silver screen, elevating film above radio and television in his 2018 overhaul of the propaganda apparatus. To discuss the special place of film in China’s global soft power push, back in March Louisa and Graeme were joined by City University of New York’s Ying Zhu and Variety Magazine’s Beijing bureau chief Rebecca Davis.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
February 22, 2019 Film fans still wonder why Zhang Yimou’s “One Second” was withdrawn from the Berlin Film Festival. The official explanation that “technical reasons” were to blame only fueled speculation that Chinese censors objected to the film’s debut. Leading Chinese film scholar Ying Zhu, who teaches in New York and Hong Kong, discusses Zhang Yimou’s case in the new MERICS Experts podcast. For Chinese filmmakers “censorship is a very challenging issue”, she notes, adding that controls over film narratives were tightened last year. The Chinese leadership regards film as a key soft-power tool and uses the cinema – often with help from Hollywood - to get is messages out. As the collaboration between China and Hollywood matures, Zhu warns, “we will see more and more stories with highly sanitized China images.”
新知日历 | 喜马拉雅平台首档自制知识资讯类音频节目从专业人士演讲、权威学术期刊、社会热点文章,行业大数据平台,分析报告等各类来源提取新认知、新观点和新趋势,为用户提供每日高品质知识资讯。新认知 | 双十一来了,三个秘诀教你成为最聪明的购物者HI,你好!新的一天又开始了,我是褚笑!欢迎打开今天的新知日历!一年一度的双十一剁手节又要来了,你是不是早已摩拳擦掌准备清空购物车了呢?买买买确实让人激动不已,可是,先不要太兴奋呀。为了防止冲动购物的情况发生,在你掏腰包之前,请先收下这份精心为你准备的双十一购物小贴士。这里有三个秘诀将教会你如何才能理性剁手。第一个秘诀很简单,就是在买东西之前一定要先吃饱饭。满足了你的胃,你的购买欲就不会那么旺盛了。饥饿感和购物欲之间的关系是有科学依据的。美国明尼苏达大学的徐静(Alison Jing Xu)教授认为,饥饿可以启动我们大脑中和“获取”有关的概念,让我们“获取”的意念更加强烈.无论是获取食物,还是获取食物之外的其它物品。研究人员做了个有趣的实验,有两组实验对象,其中一组刚吃完东西,另外一组还饿着肚子。所有的实验对象都需要评估一款新上市的装订夹,他们可以拿走装订夹回家试用。结果,没吃过饭的那组多拿了70%的装订夹。研究人员还调查了81名刚在商场“血拼”完的消费者。他们发现,饿着肚子的消费者比吃饱了的消费者多花了64%的钱。这些钱是用来买衣服、鞋子和电子产品等食物之外的商品的。看来饿的时候,我们想要的不仅是好吃的,还有各种其他的物品。所以千万不要亏待自己的胃啊!吃饱喝足之后,还有第二个秘诀,就是尽量用电脑购物,而不是用触屏手机和平板电脑。零售业权威杂志《零售与消费者服务期刊》(Journal of Retailing and Consumer Services)的研究发现,消费者网购时,如果使用的是触屏设备。比如智能手机、IPAD等,消费者会更喜欢购买享乐型的商品。享乐型的商品是指那些可以满足人们的感官体验、带给人们物质和精神享受的商品,比如巧克力、香水、电影票等。而如果消费者网购时使用的是电脑,那么他们更可能会购买实用性强的商品,比如洗衣机、感冒药等。加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚大学的朱英教授(Ying Zhu)分析,这可能与人们背后的思考风格有关。行为决策中有两种思考风格,一种是体验式的思考风格,一种是理性的思考风格。触摸屏的界面比较俏皮,手指在屏幕上滑动带给人们新奇、有趣的体验,更容易让人们进入体验式的思维风格。这种思维风格和享乐型产品带给人们的愉悦性不谋而合。而人们如果在电脑上购物,会使用鼠标和键盘。鼠标和键盘带给人们的触感比较弱,会让人们处于理性的思考模式。消费者使用逻辑进行思考,就会更喜欢购买实用性强的商品。因此,双十一用电脑,而不是用手机买买买可能真的会帮助你把钱花在刀刃上。送给剁手党们的第三个秘诀,就是不要对自己未来的喜好盲目自信。很多人都有囤货的习惯,觉得某个牌子的东西好用,就会在打折季囤一堆这个牌子的商品。但是很可能过段时间,你就发现自己并不是那么喜欢这个牌子了。美国怀俄明大学的研究者发现,人们总是“迷之自信”地认为自己能够预测未来的品味。但是实际上,人们的喜好却不是一成不变的。有这样一个“接地气”的实验:研究人员让人们在13种小吃中,选出当前最想吃的两种。然后还让人们预测自己两周之后会喜欢吃哪两种。两周之后,人们又回到实验室,重新试吃,选出了13种小吃中自己最想吃的两种。结果发现,只有44%的人和之前自己预估的一样。而剩下56%的人都纷纷“打脸”,选出的两种小吃并不是两周前自己预想的那两种。研究人员还发现,女性比男性更容易过度自信地估计自己未来的喜好。这也可以说明,为什么“买了之后又后悔”的情况经常发生在女生身上。所以,在下单之前,你可以给自己设置一个“冷静期”,先问问自己“这个东西是我真心喜欢的吗?”“我以后真的用的上么?”,避免冲动购物。好了,以上就是双十一想分享给你的三个秘诀,你记住了吗?如果你想回顾一下的话,可以前往“文稿”查看这一期的内容欢迎在评论区给我留言,和我分享你的双11“战果”。你剁手究竟买了啥?我是褚笑,我们下期再见!Source1、管不住买买买的手?把手机换成电脑试试2、剁手党要记牢:别对未来的喜好太自信3、拯救剁手党,可能只需吃饱饭4、New study shows touchscreens affect consumer behavior5、Hunger makes you buy more stuff even if it's not food撰稿 | 栾舒主持人 | 褚笑,前中央人民广播电台主持人,《新知日历》节目总监制主编 | 韩悦思节目运营 | 鲜灵康专辑图视觉创意 | 贺归昀主视觉 | 李芳舟欢迎订阅,拓展你的知识边界

As China navigates the murky waters of a “third way” with liberal economic policies under a strict political regime, the surprising battleground for China’s future emerges in the country’s highest rated television network—China Central Television, or CCTV. With 16 internationally broadcast channels and over 1.2 billion viewers, CCTV is a powerhouse in conveying Chinese news and entertainment. The hybrid nature of the network has also transformed it into an unexpected site of discourse in a country that has little official space for negotiation. While CCTV programming is state sponsored—and censored—the popularity and profit of the station are determined by the people. And as the Chinese Communist Party seeks to exert its own voice on domestic and international affairs, the prospect of finding an amenable audience becomes increasingly paramount. Through a series of interviews with a fascinating cast of power players including a director of a special topic program that incited the 1989 student movement, current and past presidents of CCTV, and producers at the frontline of the network’s rapidly evolving role in Chinese culture, celebrated media analyst Ying Zhu unlocks a doorway to political power that has long been shrouded in mystery. About the Author Ying Zhu is a professor of media culture at the City University of New York, College of Staten Island. The recipient of a fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities, she is the author or editor of seven other books, including Television in Post-Reform China and Chinese Cinema During the Era of Reform, and a co-producer of current affairs documentary films, including Google vs. China and China: From Cartier to Confucius. She resides in New York.
