27.04.2026 ⇢ The Gig Workers' New Deal Day
⌨
State media synchronized around a new central document on gig worker protections, with People's Daily, Xinhua, and China Economic Net publishing identical coverage throughout the day. This was paired with the ongoing 'People's Heart' campaign featuring Xi Jinping's governance philosophy. External outlets focused on China blocking Meta's Manus deal (SCMP) and the Tai Po fire aftermath (HKFP). The EU's Industrial Acceleration Act drew a coordinated response from MOFCOM, vowing to defend firms' rights, while Xinhua and People's Daily also highlighted youth awards. The day's narrative was dominated by domestic policy announcements and external trade tensions.
