I do want to see where China goes with soft power.
I'm ashamed about the amount of my life I've wasted in Genshin and Where Winds Meet, but it still feels like the a lot of their cultural exports haven't cracked the "just exotic enough for broad global appeal" that big-brand anime or K-pop have hit.
If nothing else, imagine they treat it with the same strategic importance they gave industrial dominance. There would be a room full of very stern and sincere Vice-Ministers for Waifu Development and Fanboy Accelerstion.
