This book provides a rich description of the shifting production
cultures in convergent Chinese television industries, through the
examination of daily production practices, showing how they embody
a new set of opportunities and tensions across strategic,
programming and individual levels. Lin argues that the current
Chinese television landscape is an ideological, cultural and
financial paradox in which China’s one-party ideological control
clashes with consumer-orientated capitalism and technological
advancement. These tensions are finely poised between new
opportunities for innovation and creative autonomy, and anxiety
over political interference marked by censorship and state
surveillance. Through its in depth study of ethnographic data
across Chinese broadcast and digital streaming sectors (including
CCTV, Hunan Broadcasting System, and Tencent Video), this book
illuminates how Chinese producers have placed their aspirations for
creative freedoms within technological advancements and rhetorical
strategies, both demonstrating compliance with ideological control,
and leaving room for resistance and resilience to one-party state
ideology. Nuanced and timely, Convergent Chinese Television
Industries unveils a complex picture of an industry
undergoing dramatic transformations.
