New popular literature and art, featuring broad public participation in the era of the internet and AI, are helping China better express itself and contribute to a fairer global cultural order, according to a think tank report released on Sunday.
Titled "The Flourishing Development and Global Influence of New Popular Literature and Art," the report was issued by the National High-Level Think Tank of Xinhua News Agency at an international symposium held in Shenzhen, a tech hub in south China's Guangdong Province.
The report said new popular literature and art refer to "a brand-new, composite literary and artistic ecosystem that has emerged in the realm of literature and art, driven by the scientific and technological revolution encompassing the internet, big data and AI."
This ecosystem features broad public participation in creation, dissemination and sharing, and reflects the voice of the people and the themes of the times, according to the report.
"Rooted in everyday life, it responds to the aesthetic needs of the people...and is increasingly showcasing Chinese characteristics, style and manner in global cultural exchanges," the report noted.
At a time when the tides of globalization and digitalization are converging, the report emphasized that new popular literature and art are employing a multiplicity of narratives to shift China's image from one "defined by others" to one "expressed by itself."
They draw on Eastern wisdom to offer a value reference for the shared dilemmas that confront the human race, the report stated. Through openness and collaboration, they help break up the concentrated structure of the global cultural industry. By harnessing technology, they contribute to building a fairer global cultural order.
