Why are "free" Chinese so soulless? Its like all they want to do is make money and then do nothing about said wealth.

Even without democracy Chinese folk don't have any of these shit thoughtfulnesseverbeit

Singapore is a pretty limited democracy from my understanding and Taiwan didn’t become democratic until the 1980’s.

true. china made genshin impact, black myth wukong and where winds meet. taiwan hasn't made anything, and singapore doens't seem like a place where people even process the concept of "entertainment".

In our marginal defense, we are so small it's really hard to have a film industry of any kind. Like how New Zealand or Macau finds it hard. The movie budgets here are like 2 million dollars

>>217141906
didn't taiwan only stop being a military dictatorship in the 90s? that was like 20 years ago

Modern chinese culture is literally a cultural pagpag, assembled from korean and japanese scraps. No offense

Taiwan and HK both had highly relevant film industries for their size

>>217141906
China has bad cultural output as well.

Hong Kong?
Singapore is one thousandth the size of China (population). As a city state it is inherently a governmental and military hub, and on top of that it is an international hub of finance and transport. You know what else they don't produce? food. Should they knock down their container port to build a few coconut farms instead? I do not understand how people have not gotten it through their head that trade exists. The people that shame Canada for not making movies and tv shows, that they would not watch, would be the first to throw tantrums over the rise of copper wire and timber product prices if we started to divert manpower and capital into building an entertainment industry.

You also forget that the Government let that shit die in favour of economic growth and stability. Not like making films matter now anyways if all you're going to get is rehashed local Chinkslop with the same old beats as before.

But my favorite Singaporean film growing up was "I not Stupid". I'd love to watch Royston Tan's "Mee Pok Man" one day too.

>>217141906
For the 1 billion people the cultural output China has to other countries is really bad. It has gotten better in recent years but even then it's just ripping off Japan and Korea already did. Genshin got popular because it looked like Zelda. Black Myth is just worse Dark Souls, C-dramas are just worse K-drama, etc.

The same with Korea and now their culture is mogging everyone hard. Wtf has Australia or Finland done this decade despite being democracies?
>>
>>217144419
Yeah Taiwan had some international musical hits in the 90s. Wtf has Singapore achieved culturally though? Truly an irrelevant enigma.

Taiwan has made good movies.
Comparing it to a nation of 1.5 billion makes little sense anyway, let's see what Taiwan would be with that population.

>>217148183

a bit unfair to demand global cultural relevance from a single city state

>why does singapore not make culture
>why don't they make art or video games

SILENCE ZOOMERS
Taiwan created Meteor Garden (the show) and F4
>>
>>217141906
Taiwan has decent cultural output: mandopop, cult vintage films, many good video games.
Desu the domestic market for native culture content in overseas Chinese countries like Taiwan, HK is dying because young people prefer Western/Japanese/Korean stuffs.
While mainland China is gimped by censorship
>>
>>217150901
you are the biggest consumer of mainland media slop
>>
I watched the Taiwanese series Wind and Cloud when I was a kid on Serbian television
>>
Communist shitholes can't create any original or influential art because those regimes purposely neglect creativity and free thinking. That's why you will never see China become a cultural powerhouse
>>
girls here are very addicted to movies and dramas from taiwan
>>
>>217152962
????????? What movies and dramas??? I don’t know what you meant by “here” but it’s definitely not Korea
>>
>>217141906
What's vidya and movies or any output from Philippines?

you must have never been on any community sites for women or had deep conversations with female friends irl, new taiwanese romance films are always being released here and each female site has a huge board about taiwanese media
>>
>>217153337

What a cuck lol
>>
>>217141906
This is and bubble tea are the only Taiwanese cultural output I know of
>>
>>217153337
I’ve never heard or seen any of these shits so I did some research. It seems a couple of Taiwanese films recorded about 400k viewers in Korea about a decade ago and no other Taiwanese film has achieved anything close to this record in Korean market even to this day. I highly doubt Taiwanese stuffs can be said to be “popular” among Korean foids even compared to Chinese or Japanese counterparts but what do I know?
