The book examines the historical background of the Chinese internet, the evolution of internet platforms, and the transformation of cultural production and entertainment industry. It also discusses the rise of internet celebrities, the role of blogging platforms in expressing dissent, and the popularity of microblogging sites like Weibo and WeChat. The author emphasizes the interplay between technology, format, and content in shaping the Chinese digital culture. However, the book's title raises concerns about the increasing internet censorship in China and its disconnection from the outside world. The author also acknowledges the contributions of Chinese people overseas, particularly exchange students, in the early development of Chinese internet culture. Overall, the book provides valuable insights into the trajectory and proliferation of Chinese digital culture over the past few decades. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Information & Culture is the property of University of Texas Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
