Type: article
Abstract: Against the backdrop of China's economic development and rise, the international community keeps a close eye on the development of China's economy and society, and the people of the world are increasingly eager to know more about China and the Chinese people who are struggling relentlessly to realize the Chinese dream.In order for the world to deeply understand China, it is necessary to tell China's stories well and shape a true, multi-dimensional, and panoramic image of China.From the perspective of Skopos theory, This article chooses the English version of the documentary A Long Cherished Dream as a research sample, discusses the translation strategies and methods used in foreign publicity documentaries, analyses how the translation of foreign publicity documentaries helps to portray the image of grassroots Chinese characters in the documentary, and then provides certain inspiration for the construction of character images in the translation of foreign publicity documentaries.
