Chinese state media throughout the day reinforced the narrative of China's "unstoppable great national rejuvenation," consistently linking the 80th anniversary of the Anti-Japanese War with a powerful historical momentum. Early reports highlighted President Xi Jinping's continued diplomatic engagements, including reaffirming close ties with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, a theme carried over from the previous day. As the day progressed, state outlets extensively featured Xi's interactions with war veterans and his consistent message linking recent SCO summit diplomacy with V-Day commemorations, emphasizing a vision for global governance and peace. Concurrently, a new editorial priority emerged around technological innovation, with prominent coverage of Xi's congratulatory letter to the World Smart Industry Expo 2025. By afternoon, this evolved into explicit reporting on Xi's call for international AI cooperation, framing artificial intelligence as an "international public good" to benefit all humanity.
