In the late 1980s, many Taiwanese TV cultural entrepreneurs launched their transnational careers by producing and marketing TV dramas across political borders between China and Taiwan. Their transnational practices, financially supported and ideologically controlled by the state-controlled terrestrial TV stations, were confined and censored by the KMT regime's system of governmentality in the fear of the PRC's influence into Taiwan. The KMT state sought to incorporate the political meaning of transnational Taiwanese TV drama production to 'mainland penetration', while the transnational productions strategically negotiated with the state in order to opportunistically create better social conditions that foster transnational mobility. By symbolically positioning Taiwanese TV transnationals in the leading role of the transnational division of labor in TV drama production and representing Chinese counterparts as the technical supporters, the alliance of Taiwanese transnational cultural entrepreneurs and the terrestrial TV stations reciprocally articulated with the KMT state, reinforcing the dominant ideology of the Taiwan-China economic relations in Taiwan. |
