The Chinese communist regime’s overseas English mouthpiece media CGTN (China Global Television Network) just finished a 2-month-long worldwide recruitment campaign of global media talents and social media influencers to produce pro-Beijing propaganda that “counters Western narratives.” The state-backed media offers rich incentives to attract young participants and has been targeting Western university students, alerting international media and communities.
CGTN launched the “Media Challengers” campaign in April to globally enlist reporters, presenters, DJs, podcasters, and social media influencers who report in English. According to the official website, the campaign “aims to inspire young people from all over the world” and it has a goal of “injecting new power into international communication under the environment of media convergence.” Participants are required to upload a 3-minute-video of any genre, whether they are a “foodie, techie, makeup guru, sports fanatic, or something else entirely.”
The state-run media offers up to $10,000 to winners and free professional training to finalists. It also offers job opportunities to winners, either part-time or full-time, at “CGTN’s Beijing headquarters and three regional production centers in Washington, London, and Nairobi.” In addition, the winners “will be invited to participate in CGTN’s coverage of the ancient Silk Road from 2021 to 2022.”

RE: Chinese Regime Sets Up Global Campaign to Recruit Talents to Counter Western Narratives
Well, I can’t blame any country with this kind of policy.
The USA has been doing that for over a century. Our problem is together with the Einstein’s, Marconi’s and Elon Musk’s of the world, we are also importing the scums of the world.
What, they don’t want “Pride Month?” The CIA will see about that, Chicoms!
These days, if they’re looking for Western narratives to counter, they’ll end up becoming the Chinese equivalent of the Maytag repairman.
They’d probably still be more honest than our media.
This should be pretty easy, given that most Western news source already self-censor themselves when talking about China.
And yes, China is playing for keeps. They are making long-range strategic plans while we discuss what pronouns should be used when talking to gender-fluid individuals.
The 19th century was the British century. The 20th century was the American century. It sure looks like the 21st century will be the Chinese century.

Quora is one of my favorite websites for asking and answering questions. But it’s becoming loaded with Chinese nationals attempting to improve their social score by denying every evil attached to the CCP and also deriding the West.
The CCP is playing for keeps and they want us dead.

They started a big campaign on TicTok using Chinese rappers - who can barely speak English correctly - its hilarious, let alone rap by the ‘cultural appropriation’ of US Black’s rap in bad English.
The CCP wants everyone dead, but Han Chinese and are working to that end on genetically selective bio-warfare.
They’ve already hired the main stream media, and many politicians from across the country. How many more do they need?
Bkmk
All of them.
