Why does China wants to stop the appreciation of the yuan?

So what I understand is the US dollar is now very valuable compared to the Yuan, but why is this a thing? Why does China feel like they have to put measures to slow down the appreciation? What consequences are they trying to avoid?

The story usually put forward is this.... The Chinese government are concerned about their export industry. They're worried that if the yuan rises too much it will price out some Chinese exports and cause unemployment in that area of the economy.

On the other hand, given how opaque the Chinese central government is, these may not be their real reasons.
