Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The increasing commercialization of the economy in China led to a growth in the publishing industry and a diversification of printed materials, which in turn made it more difficult for the government to maintain strict controls over all aspects of what could be printed. This shift allowed for a greater variety of ideas and information to circulate, gradually weakening the government's ability to impose its controls on printed content.
