29.04.2025 ⇢ Xi's Twin Focus Day: Shanghai AI and Labor Centennial
⌨

The morning coverage continued the labor centennial celebration, with Xi Jinping's speech to the All-China Federation of Trade Unions propagated across all major state outlets. This labor glorification, building on previous days' coverage, gained particular emphasis with the approaching Labor Day holiday.

By mid-morning, a second narrative emerged focused on Xi's inspection of Shanghai's AI industry, calling for it to become a "globally influential science and technology innovation highland." This marked a continuation of the AI self-reliance theme from April 26's Politburo study session.

International tensions persisted with reports of Walmart instructing Chinese suppliers to resume shipments amid the trade war. China Digital Times highlighted that China remains the world's largest jailer of writers for the sixth consecutive year, while Hong Kong saw the release of four pro-democracy figures jailed over an unofficial primary election. Foreign Ministry released a defiant "Never Kneel Down" video responding to US tariffs.
