Interesting, Chinese IT companies have long been controlling the media, basically corralling "reporters and self-media operators" into private chat groups administered by their staff, therefore excluding outsiders and naysayers, effectively forestall most negative coverage.

Also they don't have quite as many insider leaks.

Cellphone companies like Huawei and Xiaomi would give these people test units and guidelines about how to write articles. You can hardly see candid reviews, a lot of them just do shit-tier translation of TheVerge and other English sites(not sure authorized or not).
