Abstract

The gradual flattening of social media not only promotes the expression of citizens’ power and will, but also forms socially influential online public opinions in public events of interest concern, or even leads to offline group gathering. Taking Sina Weibo as a research platform, this paper analyzes the development of online public opinion on Sino-US trade disputes from March 2018 to December 2019. The public participation degree, public opinion keyword extraction and Weibo public opinion sentiment analysis of popular Weibo Posts show that in front of issues related to national dignity and related interests, online public opinion can complete group identification and construction under appropriate guidance, and maintain a positive and healthy development trend.
