Narcissism is caring about how you appear (to others)- remember he's looking at himself reflected in the lake? It's caring about appearances and others opinions. That's face, precisely. Selfishness is a different word entirely. Also, Chinese culture has always cared immensely about face; the CCP not only didn't invent that, they've toned it down a bit (not much.)
