<p>Since the concept of “Community of Human Destiny” was proposed in 2012, it has garnered extensive attention from British, American, and other Western media. In this paper, a comparable corpus is constructed with the reports on “Community of Human Destiny” and related news articles in Chinese and Western mainstream media. Using the AntConc search tool, the CRF-NLG model embedded in natural language grammar is established by using corpus-based discourse analysis combined with Lafferty’s Conditional Random Field Model to realize the identification of terminology and the extraction of the corpus. The Chinese and Western media coverage corpora CSFCNC and CSFWNC are constructed to explore the differences in Chinese and Western mainstream media’s image construction of China. The results show that “Benefit” appears most frequently in overseas media’s publicity of the “Community of Human Destiny” (Frequency=521, LLR=6.37), indicating that the overseas media’s publicity of the “Community of Human Destiny” has a strong influence on China’s image. This shows that the determining factor of the judgment standard and attitude of overseas media towards the “Community of Human Destiny” is “self-interest”. The Chinese media’s coverage of the “community of human destiny” has constructed the image of China as a responsible socialist power that promotes common development and seeks the well-being of all peoples. This kind of research has important reference value for how to further develop multilevel and multi-disciplinary public diplomacy and international political communication, better shape China’s national image, and enhance national soft power and global discourse.</p>
