Abstract

At the beginning of 2022, despite the fact that COVID-19 in the country was still not fully under control, Beijing successfully hosted the Winter Olympic Games, which have attracted the whole world’s attention. The Winter Olympic Games were covered by the media both at home and abroad, and in these reports there were many subjects of discourse who expressed their own views on the Winter Olympic Games from their own standpoints. Discourse is subjective, and the words quoted in the news may seem objective, but in fact they reflect the position and attitude of the news. In this article, China Daily, a well-known English language newspaper in China and abroad, is searched with the neutral reported verb say, and the subjects of the discourse are analysed to explore the international and domestic impact of the Winter Olympic Games hosted by China, as well as China Daily’s attitude on China’s foreign publicity.
