This study carries out a systematic analysis on the process of evolution of geopolitical rivalry and diplomatic strategies between China and Australia during the 3rd stage of economic globalization. The study finds that China-Australia relations have evolved into a complex landscape characterised by a transition from economic complementarity to a coexistence of strategic competition and cooperation. Australia's relations with China are shaped by three main aspects: multilevel strategic concerns about China's rise, structural constraints due to the Australia-US alliance; and home-grown political forces shaping its relations with China. From the research, it is observed that new changes in economic globalization 3.0 like reorganization of global value chain, and growth of digital economy are having an immense impact on the interaction pattern between China and Australia. This article proposed policy suggestions on how to advance healthy Sino- Australian relations from three parts,which are strategic communication between China and Australia, Economic and Trade cooperation, People-to-People relationships. Also put forward some future research areas, like digital economy cooperation and economic and trade cooperation under RCEP framework etc. According to this study, it seems that if China and Australia can properly deal with their differences and innovate how they cooperate, they will be able to establish a more stable and mature bilateral relationship.

This paper investigates the systemic stigmatization of female performers in 19th-century Qing China and Hungary through a cross-cultural comparative framework. In both societies, women engaged in theatrical professions—though vital to artistic innovation—faced institutionalized marginalization. In 19th-century China, female opera performers faced explicit prohibition from public stage performances under Qing state decrees. They endured dual marginalization through institutional and social mechanisms: legally categorized as "degraded status groups" within the household registration system, their status was formally degraded below that of ordinary women. Simultaneously, pervasive social stigmatization conflated them with prostitutes in public discourse, regardless of actual professional distinctions. Concurrently in Hungary, actresses and ballet dancers, and other low-status theatre workers were publicly equated with courtesans or even sex workers; their professional dedication was obscured by societal fixation on their perceived moral transgressions. These parallel patterns demonstrate how patriarchal power structures exploited gendered stereotypes to suppress women’s vocational agency. By conflating artistic labor with sexual misconduct, authorities in 19th-century Qing China and Hungary reinforced rigid gender hierarchies that confined women primarily to domestic spheres as wives and mothers, effectively excluding them from public creative expression.

With the increasing application of automated news writing and digital anchors in journalism, AIGC (Artificial Intelligence-Generated Content) has become highly realistic in form and increasingly conforms to the linguistic norms of traditional news. However, AIGC news often suffers from ambiguous sources and insufficient factual support, leading to a crisis of authenticity. Drawing on Baudrillard’s theory of simulacra, this paper systematically analyzes the manifestations of the authenticity crisis in AIGC news at the levels of content generation, expressive form, and audience perception, revealing its impact on the ontological logic of news content. The study argues that AIGC drives a shift in news authenticity from a “logic of facts” to a “logic of perception.” Its high imitation of traditional news styles in language, layout, and headline structure creates a hyperreal illusion, blurring the standards of authenticity and forcing audiences into a state of “non-judgmental reading,” thereby deepening the public’s cognitive crisis. This paper aims to provide a critical perspective for the development and theoretical study of AIGC news.

With the vigorous development of new media, short video commentaries of movies on Douyin have seen soaring popularity. This study focuses on this phenomenon and explores the role of KOLs in film and television dissemination by examining users' attitudes and preferences towards KOLs of film and television commentaries. Through the collation of relevant literature, it is found that the current domestic research on this topic is limited, and mostly focuses on aspects such as secondary creation, infringement, and communication strategies. This study comprehensively employs methods such as questionnaire surveys, word frequency analysis, and SPSS correlation analysis. It analyzes from two aspects, namely user behavior and the communication mechanism, to comprehensively explore the communication effects of short video commentaries on movies and TV shows. The results show that the communication effect of this type of short video is good. It reduces the cost of users' information acquisition through "fragmented narration + personalized interpretation", alleviates users' anxiety in decision-making, and promotes the transformation of film and television consumption from passive to active. Moreover, by virtue of highly interactive and creatively strong content, it guides users to spontaneously share and conduct secondary creation, thus expanding the scope of communication. The research findings can provide a reference for optimizing the creation and communication strategies of related content, and promote the better development of the short video field.
