Original abstract

Amid the accelerated global transition toward sustainable electromobility, Chinese Electric Vehicles (EVs) have forged a complex, evolving communication ecosystem across overseas social media platforms. Conceptualizing global digital discourse as a complex adaptive system (CAS), this study integrates CAS theory with Competitive Framing theory to systematically elucidate the thematic configurations, framework dynamics, and ecological activation mechanisms underlying the international image of Chinese EVs. By integrating unsupervised BERTopic modeling, Large Language Model (LLM) semantic mapping, the Entropy Weight Method (EWM), and Social Network Analysis (SNA), this inquiry operationalizes a comprehensive computational communication framework to mine large-scale behavioral and textual data from YouTube. The empirical findings unveil that: (1) international audience perceptions have broken through the traditional “low-cost manufacturing” stereotype, spontaneously giving rise to a multidimensional, composite cognitive schema centered on smart ecosystems and design experiences; (2) driven by the interplay of rational and irrational user feedback loops, the ecological activation efficiencies across diverse discursive dimensions exhibit pronounced nonlinear variances, characterized by a “strong activation of intelligent ecosystems versus a long-tail stagnation of cost-effectiveness salience”; and (3) positive technological frameworks and negative geopolitical or regulatory risks engage in fierce, adversarial contestation and structural hybridization within a highly volatile network topology, culminating in a unique “dual-core” configuration. Theoretically, this study enriches the scholarly understanding of country-of-origin and corporate brand images through a complex systems lens; methodologically and practically, it offers a high-fidelity, actionable quantitative paradigm for global brand empowerment and targeted cross-border public opinion governance.
