I wonder if that's why weaponizing language was key plotpoint of mgsv.

PRC is consuming more PRC content (i.e. HK/TW use to be sinosphere media power houses).

There's also consideration that documentation from science to technical papers are in Chinese now, less need for people to need English for variety of tasks.

Machine translation is also much better than it used to be. It is trivial to translate documentation or scientific literature now, or to dub on demand using AI.
