    Three-Body Problem is selling well in Japan. In my view, China has had two globally successful cultural exports over the last decade: Liu Cixin and TikTok. It’s a stunning disappointment that the number is so few. And the next decade may not be any easierhttps://asia.nikkei.com/Life-Arts/Arts/Chinese-sci-fi-blockbuster-book-hailed-by-Obama-wins-new-fans-in-Japan …

        Does TikTok export Chinese culture, though, the way Three-Body Problem does in its brand? Do most of its users know it's Chinese? (Genuine q as I'm neither an expert in TikTok or China!)

        I don’t have a strong sense, but I think there’s a lot of Chinese content there, and at least it’s easy to discover it

        Yes, though that seems mostly driven by US regulatory scrutiny, not a deeper brand concern

        Great book introduced to many Westerners by @EpsilonTheory Also excellent memo (same title). I couldn’t put it down, first the memo, then the book.
