😂 对“大外宣”标签的反思

视频开始讲述了人们在互联网上将作者贴上“大外宣”的标签，这一标签源自中国共产党2009年启动的“大外宣战略”。作者通过幽默的方式指出，那些曾质疑他的人，现在也被视为“大外宣”。他回顾了被贴上此标签的原因，包括他在中国中央电视台的工作背景，对政治口号的态度，以及他有时对中国的积极评论。此外，他还提到了关于他可能是为了渗透海外民主力量而被派出的阴谋论。最后，他强调了讨论问题时应避免揣测动机的重要性，并表达了对那些因为中国联系而在言论上保留的理解和同情。

05:02

🤔 理解和同情的重要性

在第二段中，作者继续解释为什么他没有加入反共口号的行列，强调了不愿因极端言论而使自己或他人陷入麻烦的考虑。他批评了那些强迫他人必须持极端立场的行为，认为这种做法缺乏同理心和人性。同时，他解释了作为一名记者，他认为报道事实的重要性远超过其对特定政治势力的利益影响。最后，他讨论了假新闻的问题，尤其是针对三峡大坝和其他中国项目的虚假报道，以及这种行为的无益性。

🌍 揭露“大外宣”的真相

视频的这一部分揭露了中国政府在海外建立的所谓“大外宣”机构，包括一些伪装成外国媒体的组织。作者详细列举了这些机构，指出它们实际上是由中国政府资助，旨在支持共产党的宣传。他提到了几个具体例子，包括在国际新闻发布会上出现的假记者，以及通过这些媒体传播的假新闻，如关于COVID-19病毒起源的虚假报道。作者批评了这种宣传策略，同时强调了辨别真伪的重要性。

在这一段，作者讨论了言论自由环境中对待宣传和信息竞争的看法。他认为即便是宣传，也可以在充分的信息竞争和理性讨论中被击败。作者提到了一些案例，包括在美国的毛派信仰者，来说明即使是持有极端观点的人也应在言论自由的环境中得到表达的权利。他反对用政治标准来取代对错，主张通过事实和逻辑来进行讨论。作者还指出，有些极端反共人士实际上可能无意中成为了共产党的“大外宣”，因为他们的极端行为反而将普通人推向了共产党一方。

20:08

Transcripts

Lately one thing is really funny

As you all know, I have always been labeled as a "Da Waixuan" (i.e., a big propagandist) on the Internet ("Da Waixuan" is part of the "Grand External Propaganda Strategy" initiated in 2009 by the CCP)

They say words like "Hu Xijin inside China and Wang Zhian outside China" (Hu Xijin "has been accused by the western media of being a political propagandist" according to Wikipedia)

these two people echo each other

that they are both representatives of "Da Waixuan"

Fang Zhouzi told me so on the Internet before

Fang Zhouzi has a grudge against me

because I took away his job for life

Of course lots of people agree with him

thinking that I'm a Da Waixuan

But recently these people on the Internet who kept saying that I'm a Da Waixuan

were also labeled by the revolutionary masses as Da Waixuan

So, I think this is really funny

It's a bit like the "Cultural Revolution"

that every day they catch spies, traitors, capitalists, and counter-revolutionaries

but in the end, they themselves became spies and counter-revolutionaries being caught by others

Your own logic eventually went to your opposite side

I think this is full of humor

So, today I especially want to talk about the topic "Da Waixuan"

Because on Twitter as well, in the circle of overseas Chinese

many people are keen to discuss who are Da Waixuan and what a Da Waixuan is like

today I talk about this topic

First of all, I want to say the reasons why those people think I'm a Da Waixuan

are nothing but of these few aspects

The first reason is that I was from China Central Television (CCTV), that's my original sin

You have worked for CCTV for nearly 20 years, how can you not be a Da Waixuan?

Then you quit your job and worked for a newspaper for 2 years

and then you went overseas, suspicious

So some people say, at that time the purpose of banning me that made me lose millions of Chinese Yuan a year

the purpose is to play "a two-man act" (a type of Chinese folk art, with one speaking/singing while hiding behind the other who does the acting)

so I can infiltrate the overseas forces of pro-democracy movement and disintegrate the overseas pro-democracy movement

in this case, you have to suffer a bit beforehand

like in that movie "Steel Soldier" (a Chinese war movie filmed in 1950)

or in other words, when you want someone to infiltrate the enemy

you have to beat that person first

Like Yang Zirong went up the Tiger Mountain

when the bandits inspected him, they also had to inspect his contact codes

they even asked him to kill the revolutionary masses

to show his loyalty

so the purpose they banned me

is to let me break into the overseas forces of pro-democracy movement

This is the first reason

The second reason is that I did not shout reactionary slogans online

For example, everyday people shout "Down with of the Communist Party" when mentioning it

besides, they call the Communist Party "the Communist bandit"

I still call it "the CCP", and sometimes even call it "the Chinese Communist Party"

Another example, I call "Lao Mao" (i.e., Chairman Mao), while others call him "Cured meat"

Xi Jinping, others call him "Xi Baozi" ("Baozi" is a very common Chinese bun)

why do you call him "Xi Jinping"?

Because if you call "Xi Jinping" on the overseas platforms

to put it bluntly, it means that you're actually a Da Waixuan

because you dare not call him "Xi Baozi"

"Lao Mao", why don't you call him "Cured meat"?

Why do you call him nothing but "Lao Mao"?

This is the second reason

The third reason is that

sometimes your words seem to be beneficial to the Communist Party

for example, you say that the Chinese economy can catch up with the US

that China's high-speed rail construction is quite good

Look, what we're talking about

We are all talking that, whatever is beneficial to the Communist Party, we cannot mention

whatever the Communist Party says real, we assume that it's fake

The "Two Whatevers"

But what about you? you failed the loyalty test

you said something beneficial to the Communist Party

aren't you a Da Waixuan?

This is the third aspect

The fourth aspect is that

you see, although it may be true that he was banned

his words leave some leeway as he never says never

He doesn't like to yell "You the Communist Party, we're absolutely irreconcilable"

He still leaves some leeway and wants to go back to China

For example, if the Communist Party now appoints him as Director of CCTV

he would immediately buy a plane ticket, flying back

he'll definitely not stay overseas

Basically these four reasons

I personally think we can divide them into two aspects to discuss

The first aspect is the motivation theory

such as saying that I want to go back to China

Another one is, for example, the conspiracy theory, saying that someone wants me to lurk overseas

These are the conspiracy theory and motivation theory

In fact, the motivation theory and conspiracy theory cannot be falsified

For example, about what's on my mind

how would anyone know?

About what others are thinking

I have no way to know either

So, when we discuss a problem

I personally think motivation theory is worthless

When I was on Weibo

when I was discussing with others on the Internet, I often emphasized this principle

that is, do not get into the motivation theory

because we have no way to falsify the motivation theory

This is the first point

Besides, I personally think that

for some people who have lots of connections in China

we have to be considerate

Take myself as an example

when I just left China 2 years ago

because I was thinking that I'll go back to China and I may continue to do interviews

I certainly had to leave some leeway when talking on twitter compared to now

Now I can speak my mind in so many ways

but at that time I had to take into account that if I say some words

the relevant departments will sort me out after I went back to China

so I certainly had to leave some leeway

I think this is understandable

Everyone of us, as a Chinese

may have lots of connections in China

some people have parents in China

some people have assets in China

some people work in China

some people's hometown is in China

for a variety of reasons, they can't talk whatever they want on the Internet

cannot be extreme in their words

In my eyes, these are understandable

Why?

Because if we cannot understand and empathize with the difficulties of others

then faith is meaningless to me

We all know that the Communist Party

in fact, has no bottom line in doing things, has no bottom line when persecuting people

So in this case, why do we force everyone

to go to the point where they'll be persecuted by the other party at any time?

Some people do not want to be persecuted by the other party

though he also wants to express online

So, we should respect others

So, I personally think that showing empathy for other people's difficulties

is a very important sign of whether a person is kind or not

If a person is kind enough, then he/she can understand others' difficulties

Instead, if you replace all right and wrong with political standards

you will force others to express their opinions

This is the first point

The second point is why I didn't shout those slogans like "Down with of the Communist Party"

Although now I say that I have no plans to go back to China

I see the issue like this

that is, it's meaningless to shout any slogan

Can you overthrow the Communist Party by shouting "Down with of the Communist Party"?

You have been shouting overseas for decades, and the Communist Party has not fallen

what is the value of shouting such extreme slogans other than self-amusement?

For me, it has no value

The other thing is who would benefit from what you say

This question actually is not in my scope

Why?

Because as a journalist

I think the most important criterion is whether it's a fact or not

If it's a fact, then we should tell it

If it's not a fact, then we should ignore it

or tell people it's not a fact

As for who benefits from this fact

it should not be the standard a journalist considers

Let me give you an example

for example, when I just began using twitter

I was still in China back then

I saw lots of people on Twitter saying that the Three Gorges Dam is about to collapse

Every year when the rainy season comes, some people would say

damn, the Three Gorges Dam is about to collapse

What's their reason?

They say that the Three Gorges Dam

because when building this project, the Communist Party

certainly looted people's properties, there's certainly corruption

the quality of this project can't be good

the Three Gorges Dam certainly will collapse one day, sooner or later

either this year or next year

I thought it ridiculous when I saw these posts

Why?

Because I did an interview when the Three Gorges Dam was under construction

Its chief designer is Lu Youmei

I also interviewed him

I know that the Three Gorges Dam won't collapse

Should the Three Gorges Dam itself be built?

There is indeed a huge controversy in China

for example, people say that it has environmental impact, etc.

But if you say that the Three Gorges Dam is about to collapse, in my opinion, this's extremely ridiculous

Why?

Because it's not a fact

What's the value of spreading such information that isn't a fact?

Do you think that spreading such information can really threaten the Communist Party's governance?

I don't think so

So, in my opinion, it doesn't really matter who benefits from the information

If you spread fake news

it's funny enough by itself

So, in my opinion, it's that the standard of discussion

shouldn't consider at all who benefits from it

rather, discussions should only be based on facts and logic

This is the standard about discussions I stick to online

I am willing to adhere to this principle no matter it's inside or outside China

This is my own discussion

Next up we'll discuss

does the Communist Party have any Da Waixuan overseas?

If there are Da Waixuan, what's the criterion of being a Da Waixuan?

I personally think that first of all there is Da Waixuan, no doubt

In my opinion, there is only one criterion of being a Da Waixuan

Did you take money from Communist Party?

We all know that there is one criterion for hosting shows on YouTube

that is, if your show was made by someone paying you to make it

you must display these words on your video

"This is a paid show, and there is paid content"

What does "paid content" mean?

It's reminding the viewer that someone paid for your content

so the content of your show may have an interest with that person

This is the principle of YouTube, as long as you display it clearly, you can still host

same with Twitter

These words are displayed on the YouTube shows of China's Xinhua News Agency and People's Daily

including Hu Xijin

which means these media are funded by the Chinese government

Why?

Because they have an interest

think twice over what they say

I personally think that this is the criterion of Da Waixuan

Did you take the money?

If you took money from the Chinese government (then you are a Da Waixuan)

Well, the Chinese government has established many such propaganda organizations overseas

We all know that, for example, there are many fake foreign media

The World Journal, Nouvelles d'Europe, The China Press, Ta Kung Pao, South China Morning Post

These newspapers appear to be foreign media

but actually are all funded by the Chinese government

So, the purpose of the Chinese government investing in many such media

in fact, is to create an overseas media matrix that supports the CCP

because it has needs

Its needs are mainly in two aspects

The first aspect is to create a need for all parties to come to China

We all know that during the "Nineteenth National Congress" of the CCP

there came a piece of very interesting news

During the press conference, at that time foreign media was still allowed to ask questions

there was this female reporter in the press conference

who was Executive Director of "AMTV News (American Multimedia Television USA)"

her name is Zhang Huijun, and she kept asking questions

Next to Zhang, there was a domestic female reporter who cannot put up with it any longer

she began to roll eyes, kept rolling eyes

The two of them, one in a red suit and one in blue

and this scene was broadcast live

As a result, it blew up all of a sudden

Finally, the media found out that the agency Zhang Huijun

works for which is called "AMTV News"

is actually a fake foreign media

Although the TV station is called "AMTV News"

there may be no more than 100 people in total in the US

its entire TV station may only have 3 to 5 people

and it's fully supported by the Chinese capital

There are many organizations like this

When the CCP engages in some major activities in China

it wants to invite some foreign media to come

but if it's all CNN and BBC, they won't listen to the CCP

they would ask questions that CCP doesn't like

so if you want to create a scene where foreign media can ask questions

while you want to be in control, then what could you do?

So, the CCP invests in fake foreign media overseas

Just that the names of these foreign media are big

maybe the media actually has only 1 person

for example, The World Journal, The China Press

their title sounds very big

Go visit many Chinese communities around the world and you'll see that

those news organizations with particularly big titles

may actually have only 1 or 2 people

Quite a few such media in Japan as well. There are more than 20 Chinese-language media in Japan

Their names are all very big, but usually there's only 1 person

We also discussed the name when we started this organization

I once thought we might just call it the "Cosmos News Service"

because the "World Journal" has already been taken

It can't be bigger, if bigger, then it must be the cosmos

and "solar system" sounds not interesting

just call it cosmos, "Cosmos News Service", it sounds absolutely high-end

Xinhua News Agency and People's Daily sound like little brothers compared to ours

The Associated Press or something, they sound like our affiliates

giving people that feeling

Later, I said this isn't ok as "cosmos" is like that cigarette brand "Yuzhou" at first glance ("Yuzhou" means "cosmos" in Chinese, "Yuzhou" cigarette is an old brand which appears to be low-end)

I said it should be called "Mars Service", "Mars Service" is a pun

Why? Where there is huoxing (a spark), there we go report ("huoxing" means "spark" and "Mars" in Chinese)

Another thing, Musk will immigrate to Mars soon

Mars will be the second home of mankind

and looking at the earth from the standpoint of Mars couldn't be more objective

Later, we did not adopt this plan

it's still called "Wang Sir's News Talk". Why?

Just because those terms are too much like Da Waixuan

The characteristic of Da Waixuan is that the name is infinite, but in fact it has only 1 person

There are also some Chinese news agencies in Japan. I don't call the roll here

In fact, only 1 works there, swindling money

I personally think there are this kind of Chinese groups all over the world

They either take money directly from the CCP

or they do this in order to do business in China

They use this type of big title to deceive Chinese living in China

because Chinese people especially recognize titles

As soon as they hear "World Journal", they would assume that it must be a large-scale newspaper

its influence must be huge, otherwise how dare you call it “World Journal”?

but in fact, maybe those "World Journal"s are the world of only two people

This is one purpose

The second purpose is, why does the CCP invest in fake foreign media?

Because it tries to spread some fake news

We all know that last year between China and the US

when everyone is arguing about where the virus came from

domestic newspapers quoted a foreign media report

saying that a Swiss scientist named Wilson Edwards spoke on the Internet that

the US has been cracking down on scientists who are working in the first phase of virus origin-tracing

in fact, it means that this virus is caused by you Americans

and then in the process of origin-tracing, it was discovered that you Americans did it

so you Americans started to oppress us

It began to be widely reposted in China

This Wilson Edwards is said to be a Swiss scientist

As a result, within a few days, the Swiss embassy in China issued a statement

saying that after checking, there's no man named Wilson Edwards in Switzerland

no such person

Secondly, there are no articles under the name of Wilson Edwards in academic journals either

Thirdly, this Twitter account tweeted only this 1 post after 3 days of registration

We think that the Twitter account may not be registered for social needs

Later, we found out that Wilson Edwards' account must be fake

it was some Chinese official media who did this

After creating this fake account, they sent that piece of fake news

A Chinese website in Fiji with its mobile app called South Pacific News

When you hear its name, the title is so big

think about it, the South Pacific even includes the US

This app reposted a newspaper in English language

and then the People's Daily, Xinhua News Agency, and Global Times in China all started to repost it

This is to deliberately spread some fake news to China

This is also one of the purposes of these fake foreign media

But for publicity

in fact, these big publicity agencies are not very useful, as we all know

but they're not totally useless

because there are a group of overseas Chinese who read The World Journal, The China Press

but I think they're the minority

There're also some following self-media

for example, on YouTube, YouTubers like Zheng Guocheng

He bypassed the Great Firewall in China and started to work as a self-media on YouTube

think about that being able to bypass the Great Firewall could be charged with "Picking quarrels and provoking trouble"

and he could still host shows on YouTube

However, he harshly criticizes the US, Japan, and Taiwan in almost all of his shows

of course, sometimes he harshly criticizes me too

But the accounts of these "little pinkos" ("little pinko" means a fan of the CCP)

must have been tacitly approved and supported by the relevant departments of the CCP

otherwise, they would have been caught

But once Zheng Guocheng drank too much

he accidentally exposed his true humanity after drinking too much

He said that his own family member was sorted out for bypassing the Great Firewall

and then he started yelling that

on the one hand, these people harshly criticize the US every day

on the other hand, they send their children to the US

Ordinary people were sentenced to 3 years for stealing something

but they (government officials), after embezzling hundreds of millions, were also sentenced to 3 years

Where's the justice?

He drank too much, and it was broadcast live on the Internet that day

He freaked out the next day and then deleted it

After it was deleted, it actually spread all over the Internet

The patriotic youth Zheng Guocheng turned against the CCP

Then his account was closed for a few months

don't know how he showed his loyalty to have it slowly recovered

But the account recovery is useless

What I mean is that

people like him, you know very clearly that he took the money

My purpose of saying these is just that

do not say a person is a Da Waixuan unless there is evidence

to prove that this person took the money, so I think he is a Da Waixuan

If you don't have any evidence to prove that this person took the money

in fact, we cannot easily say that a person is a Da Waixuan

It doesn't matter whether what this person says is actually good or bad for the CCP

I don't think that's the standard for examining the problem

We have a real discussion in such an environment of freedom of speech

and to me the issues should be discussed based only on facts and logic

I can even say that, even if the other party is a Da Waixuan, so what?

In an environment of freedom of speech

even if the other party is really a propagandist, you can still defeat him if you have confidence

For example, there are Maoists in the US

they just believe in Lao Mao's stuff

Red Guards, things like that, and they give you a red book

But in an environment of adequate freedom of speech

in fact, they cannot have a huge impact

no harm to the American society

You can express what you want to express

as long as you don't promote violence

don't incite others to carry guns to attack the White House, you can do whatever you want

So, I think that in an environment of freedom of speech

people should have the confidence

that under full competition of information

fact-telling, reasoning, truth-telling

will definitely defeat false propaganda

If you don't even have this confidence

how can you compete with them?

This is a very important point

In the end I want to say

Actually, I think lots of people overseas

You see they harshly criticize the CCP every day, in reverse, they're actually the CCP's Da Waixuan

What does this mean?

These people are so extreme

they go against communism through spreading rumors and defamation

In fact, for many ordinary people in China

it drove them all to the side of the Communist Party

Like what I said at the beginning, when I just began to use twitter

I noticed that among those anti-communist people online, one thing is their extreme discourse

The second thing the kind of hostility they show towards their opposing forces

Another thing is that they spare no effort to spread rumors

such as 90 million people quit the CCP, the Three Gorges Dam is about to collapse

China's economy is about to collapse

spreading rumors online like this

They scared most people away, including me

At that time I just thought these people unreasonable

Although when living in China, many people

think that the CCP is bad

restricting freedom of speech, no human rights, suppressing dissidents

We all know that, how could people living in China do not know?

But comparing the CCP with some overseas Chinese

people found that these people are even more extreme than the CCP

Think about what they said online

that kind of murderous look when facing different opinions

In my own experience

against the CCP, I ran from China

the CCP hasn't taken any measures against me yet, but you see lots of people

are about to make death threats against me

Then think about it, for many ordinary people

people who don't have strong political demands

they would feel terrible

Although we say that the CCP isn't good, but compared with these people

they feel as if the CCP is better than them

So, between two rotten apples

at least the CCP this rotten apple has a little more bottom line than them

These people actually pushed most of the

moderate and rational ordinary people to the side of the CCP

I'm not talking about myself, in fact, many ordinary people in China

hold this common feeling towards these people

So why do I insist on reasoning online?

Reasoning with facts and logic

in my opinion, the first point I want to emphasize is that shouting slogans is useless

Secondly, shouting extreme slogans

would not only useless, but it would also scare moderate ordinary people away

Only by telling facts, logic, and reasons

can we win more people's support for us

can people truly realize what the problem is with

the CCP ruling clique

then people would firmly believe those who truly oppose the CCP

are a healthier force when they take its place someday

I am willing to work hard for this kind of job

I also hope that our overseas Chinese living in an environment of freedom of speech

to become this kind of person

to feel comfortable with this kind of person, and to become a person who's willing to work hard for such rules

Let me call it a day

I don't care if they call me "Da Waixuan" or not

As for them being labeled as "Da Waixuan", well, they deserve it
