I do feel like China's still in the mode of "export only on our terms", but the problem is that no one wants their stuff. Like, China did make a bunch of movies with the intent to export, such as Great Wall and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, but because it was made with the intent to export, they seemed to decide that they won't bother to put as much effort in, since it's for a global audience and it was mostly crap.
And then there's the web novel stuff that's just purely grassroots with no government involvement whatsoever. I think it's best for the Chinese government to stay out of this stuff because their plans always backfires.
