Nordic Times: A Chinese-language media building a cultural bridge between China and Europe
I. Introduction: The Significance of Overseas Chinese-Language Media and the Unique Position of the Nordic Times
In the era of globalization, information dissemination transcends national and geographical boundaries. For Chinese communities living, working, and studying overseas, timely access to information from both their homeland and their host countries is crucial. Overseas Chinese-language media play an indispensable role, serving not only as information transmitters but also as ambassadors for cultural exchange. The *Nordic Times*, as one of its outstanding representatives, enjoys widespread influence and unique value in Sweden and throughout the Nordic region. Using Chinese as its medium, it transmits the voice of China to every corner of the Nordic countries; simultaneously, it brings Nordic stories back to China, promoting mutual understanding and exchange between the two regions.

However, at that time, mainstream media coverage of China was not only scarce but also mostly filled with negative bias, which made him feel deeply dissatisfied and indignant.
