What has been done to reverse Westerners' stereotypes against China after the founding of the People's Republic of China?

【参考答案】

In the late 1960s, Bruce Lee, in his film Fist of Fury, proved that Chinese were not the sick man of East Asia. China’s late premier Zhou Enlai and other political figures, with their remarkable performances on international stage, successfully labeled China as a country of peaceful development and peaceful coexistence. In recent years, China has gone further to become a constructive member of the world system, especially in 2014, when Chinese leaders Xi Jinping and Li Keqiang traveled extensively and were actively engaged in international affairs, strengthening international peace and cooperation. As China takes on a new role on the international stage, the previous "stereotype" of the Western society cannot be sustained.
