05.06.2025The diplomatic phone call breaks months of silence
State media executed another synchronized messaging campaign, shifting from yesterday's Tiananmen anniversary coverage to World Environment Day themes. Eight outlets published identical headlines featuring Xi Jinping's "green mountains" quote throughout the morning hours.

The coordination pattern was interrupted at midday when Xi Jinping and Trump held their first phone conversation in months. Eight outlets immediately pivoted to cover the call, with Trump reportedly initiating the contact. State media emphasized dialogue as the "only correct choice" between the two countries.

Earlier, Xi signed new military facility construction regulations, with four outlets providing coordinated coverage of streamlined management procedures taking effect August 1st. Trump's expanded travel ban targeting 12 countries including China generated coverage, though with noted Olympic athlete exemptions.

Economic indicators showed services PMI rising to 51.1 in May, while Beijing restaurants abandoned private dining rooms as business consumption dropped significantly. Hong Kong activists held overseas Tiananmen vigils in 20 cities worldwide.
