Abstract:
Since 2020, Yangtze News has launched a series of foreign programs on major platforms at
home and abroad. The episode Jack the American and His “Karate Dream” was rebroadcast by overseas
platforms, with more than 1 million views. In recent years, Yangtze News has been trying new external
communication strategies and achieved excellent results, setting a model for mainstream media to
engage in cross-cultural communication. Through interviews and analysis, it is found that this platform
pays attention to the selection of diversified characters and representative locations in the production of
cross-cultural communication content, strives to innovate the presentation form of programs, and gives
full play to its economic value on the basis of fulfilling the social responsibilities of communication
media. In terms of communication strategy, timely communication and authoritative narration should
be carried out to reduce cultural discount.
2020年起,《长江新闻号》相继推出的外国人看湖北系列节目在国内外各大平台传播,《美国人杰克和他的“功夫梦”》一集播出后被各大海外平台转播,观看量超100万次。近年来《长江新闻号》不断尝试新的对外传播策略,取得优异成绩,为主流媒体从事跨文化传播树立范本。通过访谈及分析研究发现,该平台在跨文化传播内容生产上注重多元化人物与代表性地点的选择、力求创新节目呈现形式、在完成传播媒体社会职责基础上发挥其经济价值;在传播策略上适时传播、权威叙事,力求降低文化折扣。
