Rather than looking into cultural phenomena that are superficial, this research takes a philosophical approach to investigate the beliefs and values which are the core of social systems. The overarching purpose of this research is to establish cultural competence for entering the Chinese market by a discussion of different aesthetic, emotional, and philosophical points of view. With detailed analysis and evaluation, this research provides some guidelines to appropriate future marketing strategies in China. This research contributes to the understanding of the entwinement between philosophical values and marketing iv strategies and it provides further insight into future research for improving communicative competence across cultures. (192 pages) v PUBLIC ABSTRACT Taking Culture and Philosophy into Consideration: A Rhetorical Analysis of Marketing Strategies in China Globalization makes the physical boundary between countries almost disappear, while on the other hand, it exacerbates cultural and philosophical differences. The overall aim of this dissertation is to dig into the philosophical values of Western and Chinese cultures to provide some theoretically sound and pragmatically useful guidance for future communication and marketing in China. While some American corporations have been embraced by the Chinese, many more have not. This research concerns itself with searching what the leading causes are for the above phenomenon, and more specifically, this study explores answers to the following questions: What strategies are used for product and brand promotion in the Chinese and American markets? What are the functions of written texts and images? How are they organized? Are these strategies related with the philosophical thoughts? How do strategies differ between Chinese and American markets? Why would the differences exist? Do they differ in a superficial level or deep rooted habits? How to understand these differences? Why do some commercials succeed and others fail in the Chinese market? What philosophical principles underlie the strategies in the Chinese market? What guidelines should an American company know when deciding its marketing strategies to appeal to the Chinese audience? Applying a cultural philosophical lens of rhetorical analysis, I begin the discussion with the analysis of nutrition brochures, the traditional paper documents, and then develop the research into multilayer media, i.e., video commercials. During this study it became apparent that people from different cultures have different expectations concerning what is good or appropriate, choice of color, the use of image, and the organization of the text or the methods of persuasion. This study concludes by recommending taking the following issues into consideration when marketing in China: Interchangeability and change; Persuade through analogy and story-telling; Warmth and support from the family; Being suggestive in expression; Strong feeling of loyalty and group vi identity; Relation with the nature: holism; Relations among people: harmony; Cultivation of the inner virtues; Hierarchical system; Intuitive thinking mode. This research speaks to the importance of exploring the relevance between the philosophical values and marketing strategies, and it suggests that a good understanding of the Chinese attitudes toward family, philosophy, and their rich and varied past will lead to a better communication and success in business. This research is the starting point for future, more in-depth research in philosophical thoughts, communication, and marketing strategies.

  • General Chairs' Welcome
    General Chairs’ Welcome ACM Multimedia 2017 We warmheartedly welcome you to the 25th ACM Multimedia conference, which is hosted in the heart of Silicon Valley at the wonderful Computer History Museum in Mountain View, CA, USA. As you will notice, the second floor of the Computer History Museum is still nearly empty these days. 25 years later, the second floor will be filled with artifacts people have created today. Hopefully some of these artifacts are created by attendees of this conference. Let us work together and make history. We are celebrating our 25th anniversary with an extensive program consisting of technical sessions covering all aspects of the multimedia field in both form of oral and poster presentations, tutorials, panels, exhibits, demonstrations and workshops, bringing into focus the principal subjects of investigation, competitions of research teams on challenging problems, and an interactive art program stimulating artists and computer scientists to meet and discover together the frontiers of artistic communication. For our 25th ACM Multimedia conference, ACM Multimedia 2017, we unified for the first time the long and short papers into a single submission track and review process. In order to support the traditional short and long papers, the unified track has had a flexible range of paper lengths (6-8 pages plus references), which is not much longer than the previous short paper length (5 pages), while also supporting the traditional long papers with 8 pages plus references. This change was decided at the SIGMM Business Meeting at ACM Multimedia 2016 in Amsterdam. It aims at making the review process more consistent than the former short and long paper track.

  • Xi Jinping's Inner Circle (Part 2: Friends from Xi's Formative Years)
    Xi Jinping’s Inner Circle (Part 2: Friends from Xi’s Formative Years) Cheng Li The dominance of Jiang Zemin’s political allies in the current Politburo Standing Committee has enabled Xi Jinping, who is a protégé of Jiang, to pursue an ambitious reform agenda during his first term. The effectiveness of Xi’s policies and the political legacy of his leadership, however, will depend significantly on the political positioning of Xi’s own protégés, both now and during his second term. The second article in this series examines Xi’s longtime friends—the political confidants Xi met during his formative years, and to whom he has remained close over the past several decades. For Xi, these friends are more trustworthy than political allies whose bonds with Xi were built primarily on shared factional association. Some of these confidants will likely play crucial roles in helping Xi handle the daunting challenges of the future (and may already be helping him now). An analysis of Xi’s most trusted associates will not only identify some of the rising stars in the next round of leadership turnover in China, but will also help characterize the political orientation and worldview of the influential figures in Xi’s most trusted inner circle. “Who are our enemies? Who are our friends?” In the early years of the Chinese Communist movement, Mao Zedong considered this “a question of first importance for the revolution.” 1 This question may be even more consequential today, for Xi Jinping, China’s new top leader, than at any other time in the past three decades.

  • <A>INTRODUCTION
    Montgomery, L. & E. Priest (2016), “Copyright and China’s Digital Cultural Industries.” In Michael Keane (Ed) Handbook of the Cultural and Creative Industries in China. Cheltenham: Edward Elgar. <a>INTRODUCTION Economic and cultural sector reforms and engagement with international markets initiated by Deng Xiaoping since 1990 led to the rapid development of the PRC’s copyright law. Since China joined the World Trade Organization in December 2001, affluent Chinese consumers have become an important target market for both Chinese and international firms trading in creative and cultural products. While enforcement remains problematic, Chinese creators and businesses are adept at navigating the intellectual property system – developing business strategies that engage with the possibilities of digital technologies and copyright licensing; using copyright to support eXpansion into new markets; and adapting distribution approaches to reflect lessons provided by first-movers in digital spaces. This chapter eXplores how and why copyright’s role is eXpanding and changing in China, focusing on recent developments in digital content markets. It considers the impact of uneven media sector reform processes on the emergence of ‘born digital’ copyright industries in China. There are signs that the commercial benefits of copyright compliance are beginning to outweigh the advantages of operating outside the intellectual property system for many Chinese stakeholders. We argue that these developments – in particular the emergence of widespread exclusive licensing practices – signal a watershed moment for China’s cultural and creative industries, highlighting the potential for digital technology to create new markets for legitimate content and services, as well as the importance of global dynamics in the development of digital era copyright industries.
