State-media framing of China's storage dominance as industrial-policy success and a pillar of the renewable transition, emphasising scale leadership over cost or curtailment problems.

“China takes the lead in global power storage.”

State-media framing centred on grid modernisation and foreign partners (Hitachi Energy), presenting UHV expansion as the backbone of the energy transition and downplaying curtailment.

“Ultra-high-voltage transmission enabled electricity to move seamlessly from renewable-rich regions to industrial centres.”

State-media explainer on what makes Chang'e-7 special, the south-pole target and the hopper that will dive into permanently shadowed craters to sniff for water ice, the official framing of a mission Beijing casts as scientific leadership.

“Chang'e-7's hopper will fly from sunlit ground into permanently shadowed craters to detect the location and quantity of water ice.”

Beijing's state broadcaster frames the meeting around Wang Yi's bilaterals, notably with Iran's security official, foregrounding China's diplomacy rather than India's chairship, and stressing multipolar cooperation over any India-led agenda.

Beijing's framing of the 25 May Great Hall meeting: Xi calls Sharif an 'old friend,' stresses an 'unbreakable' friendship and a 'community with a shared future,' and praises Pakistan's Middle East mediation, no mention of any India backfire.

“中巴是好朋友、好伙伴、好兄弟，要构建更紧密的中巴命运共同体。 (China and Pakistan are good friends, partners and brothers, building a closer shared future.)”

Beijing's wire stresses the coercive bargain: Modi agreed to curb Russian oil in exchange for the tariff cut. Plays up India's 'strategic autonomy' and parallel China-India dialogue, framing Delhi as resisting being pulled into Washington's orbit.

“特朗普称莫迪同意不再购买俄罗斯石油，美国将相应下调对印度关税。 (Trump says Modi agreed to stop buying Russian oil; the US will cut tariffs on India accordingly.)”
