This study applies phraseologies to the comparative examination of China's Greater Bay Area plan between Chinese and Anglo-American English-language press. Findings show that the Chinese texts are concerned in promoting cross-border Greater Bay Area integrated development allied with positive references to the role of Hong Kong, whereas the Anglo-American texts construct the Greater Bay Area plan as a political project and place emphasis on the negative impact on Hong Kong. Also, while the Chinese texts focus on government support to legitimate the plan, the Anglo-American texts underline political threat to Hong Kong as a form of delegitimation. This study explicated the social-political factors behind each particular way of representation by presenting an approach that could yield insights into the new politicalized Hong Kong
