How Do Foreign Media Cherry-Picking China's Economic Data?

　　部分外媒对中国经济数据的“选择性解读”，本质是带着预设立场的叙事偏差，而非客观理性的分析。他们试图通过误读数据抹黑中国经济形象，质疑中国发展路径。

　　The selective interpretation of China's economic data by some foreign media reflects a narrative bias driven by preconceived assumptions, rather than objective and rational analysis. By criticizing China's economy, these sources aim to cast doubt on China's development path.

　　这种“选择性解读”集中体现在两方面：一是避重就轻，对新能源、高端制造等领域的增长数据视而不见，却紧盯特定行业的短期调整大肆渲染，忽略中国经济整体稳中向好的基本面；二是双重标准，对中国经济的合理波动过度苛责，甚至曲解数据含义以契合其固有偏见，而忽略了国际货币基金组织(IMF)等机构数据：中国经济增速多年来在主要经济体中保持领先，对世界经济增长贡献率维持在30%左右。

　　This selective interpretation manifests in two ways.

　　First, it diminishes the significance of important information while exaggerating trivial matters. It overlooks growth in sectors such as new energy and high-end manufacturing, instead focusing on short-term fluctuations in specific industries, all while ignoring the fact that China's economic fundamentals remain strong and stable.

　　Second, it applies a double standard. Normally fluctuations in China's economy are subjected to hypercritical scrutiny, with some data being misinterpreted to fit preconceived biases. Meanwhile, relevant information from institutions like the International Monetary Fund (IMF) is often disregarded, even though it shows that China's economic growth rate has been among the highest of major economies for years, contributing about 30% to global economic growth.

　　在世界经济复苏乏力的背景下，2025年中国GDP首次突破140万亿元；政府工作报告中提出，2026年发展主要预期目标：经济增长4.5%-5%,在实际工作中努力争取更好结 果……这些事实证明，中国经济韧性足、潜力大。唯有摒弃预设偏见、全面客观看待数据，才能真正读懂中国经济的发展逻辑与内生动力，共同维护基于事实的全球经济舆论环境。

　　In the context of weak global economic recovery, China's GDP exceeded 140 trillion yuan (approximately 20.3 trillion U.S. dollars) for the first time in 2025. According to China's 2026 Government Work Report, the country has sets its economic growth target for 2026 between 4.5% and 5%, while striving for better in practice. These facts illustrate that China's economy possesses strong resilience and considerable potential. Only by abandoning preconceived prejudices and adopt a comprehensive and objective perspective on data can the world truly comprehend the logic and underlying dynamics of China's economic development. This approach would contribute to a fact-based global economic discourse.
