## 5 Conclusions and Implications
### Contributions, Limitations, and Future Work  
The principal contribution of our study is to authentically represent the attitudes of the Chinese public towards the national strategy of common prosperity. This strategy has garnered significant global attention, influencing the policy directions of numerous countries, enterprises, and individuals. Existing research on China's common prosperity often originates from Chinese government officials or scholars from China or other countries. These publications typically exhibit strong ideological biases or are influenced by personal sentiments, which hampers their objectivity. By conducting text mining on all posts related to common prosperity on Weibo\(-\)China's largest platform for public opinion\(-\)our study provides the most comprehensive reflection of the Chinese public's attitudes to date. Additionally, our research delves into the interactive relationships between China's current affairs and public sentiments, extending beyond purely technical analysis to broaden the applicative scope of text mining technology. This study has some limitations. First, the sentiment analysis conducted relied on a combination of third-party and self-built lexicons without incorporating machine learning or deep learning techniques. The utilization of these sophisticated methods could potentially reveal new insights and refine the conclusions drawn from the sentiment data. Secondly, this study has not distinguished posts according to various regions and identities, potentially obscuring the nuanced differences in attitudes towards common prosperity among different demographic groups. To address these limitations, our future work will concentrate on two primary objectives. Firstly, we intend to analyze how views on common prosperity vary among different groups across China by examining the IP addresses of the posters. Given the regional imbalances in development, such an analysis across China's eastern, central, and western regions, will provide deeper insight into the diverse and complex viewpoints prevalent throughout the country. This could inform more nuanced and effective policy interventions. Secondly, we plan to differentiate between the attitudes expressed by official sources and private individuals based on the identity of the poster. Understanding these distinctions will allow us to better discern the differences in perspectives between the Chinese government and its citizens, thereby yielding more substantive conclusions and policy recommendations.
