With the intensification of the US technology war against China,chip themed news narratives around the hot topics have emerged endlessly on social media,filled with patriotic anxiety,which is not only expressed and presented in nationalist discourse,but also compensated and mitigated through various chip technology breakthroughs in news,forming a unique cyber culture spectacle.At the textual aspect,tweets active on Weibo and WeChat platforms use nationalist discourse strategies of"confrontation and conflict"to portray anxiety;At the discourse practice aspect,the acceptance process of relevant news texts by netizens is manifested as a reproduction of nationalist discourse that"distinguishes oneself from others",which is dramatically transformed into a way to respond to and alleviate patriotic anxiety;At the social practice aspect,the logic of platform capitalism and the political psychology of seeking benefits and avoiding harm have influenced the nationalization of patriotic anxiety,and the combination of the two has promoted the display of chip news narrative as a cultural wonder on the internet.This cyclical news production is a symptom of contemporary Chinese modernity,and its negative impact on the country's political culture is incalculable.
