The United States and the United Kingdom are hyping up China’s “cyber attacks”, and Xinhua News Agency’s talk show responded hilariously_Guangming.com

--

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, April 22 (Xinhua) In recent times, politicians in the United States and the United Kingdom have been constantly hyping up China’s so-called “cyber attacks” against them. First, at the end of January, FBI Director Christopher Wray stated at a House of Representatives Special Committee hearing that China poses “the key threat facing our generation.” Then, British Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden claimed at the end of March that people associated with the Chinese government had launched two “malicious cyber attacks” against the UK.

It can be said that you finished singing and I came on stage, what a good pair of “CP”. A detailed analysis shows that although the hype statements of relevant politicians have different purposes, the means of “making trouble” are similar. Xinhua News Agency reporter Zheng Jinqiang launched a talk show to analyze and ridicule in a “cold-faced humor” style.

Let’s look at the United States first. Although the relevant politicians are still using old “scripts” that are unfounded, the timing and considerations behind the hype are intriguing: If we don’t exaggerate the “China threat theory” more, how can members of Congress criticize it with a single stroke of a pen? A sky-high budget? Choosing to speak out loud when Congress is reviewing the budget, it seems that the US intelligence agencies will have more money and more money in the new year.

Look at the UK. The reporter first started to trace the meaning of the relevant politicians’ statements. The deputy prime minister first threatened to “confirm” that the country had been attacked by a Chinese cyber attack, and then changed the wording to “almost certain”. The official press release also used words such as “extremely likely”, which made reporters think, ” Is it necessary for the Oxford English Dictionary to consider updating the definition of the word “confirmation”?

Seeing this, Kantan, an Indian geopolitical analyst, commented sharply: China was chosen to be the villain. What are the facts? Who takes it seriously?

More importantly, the logical fallacies in the remarks of relevant politicians are also unbearable to look at. The talk show specifically intercepted a question asked by Pat McFadden, a member of the British Parliament: “Why does the Deputy Prime Minister think that the Chinese government will hack a public database?” This also made American writer Ma Yijun couldn’t help but laugh:

American politicians took the lead in shouting, and British politicians followed suit and hyped it up. This “CP love” scene is truly classic. This talk show’s “warm reminder” to netizens: If you are too lazy to read history books, you might as well review the hit micro-movie “No Time to Die Laughing” previously released by Xinhua News Agency:

Nowadays, “China = cyber mafia” seems to be the universal answer used by some Western politicians to explain all negative events. Is Princess Kate being “hacked” too much by netizens? Blame China. A Singapore-flagged ship chartered by a Danish company bound for Sri Lanka hits a U.S. bridge? Still blame China.

Some of these claims have been clarified, and some are still widely circulated. After all, scolding China can bring sky-high budgets and endless traffic. At the end of the talk show, the reporter did not forget to issue a “warm notice”: Maybe someone will soon label this program a “Chinese Internet propaganda campaign.”

The Chinese Embassy in the United States also helped ask questions when forwarding the talk show on social platforms:

After the talk show was aired, members of the British Parliament George Galloway, London Broadcasting Corporation host Denise Headley, London Metropolitan University associate professor Constantinos Pitaki, the American anti-war organization “Code Pink”, etc. Organizations and personal accounts have shared likes and comments. Netizens appealed in the comment area: The more such interesting and informative programs, the better!
