Original title: Hu Xijin: This BBC reporter has treated me, but I did not expect him to be so persuaded
The BBC’s anti-China reports in the past two years, especially the Xinjiang-related reports, I believe that Sha Lei is not only personally responsible, but will eventually show that this is a stain on his journalistic career.
Sha Lei, the BBC’s China correspondent, left without saying goodbye without complying with the resignation formalities, “fleeing” to Taiwan and becoming big news. Someone in Xinjiang took up legal arms and told him to spread rumors. As Hua Chunying said: If you have a clear heart, you can answer fairly, and if you feel personally threatened, can you call the police and run for what?

I’ve taken care of Sha Lei. I went to Hong Kong the year before and he specifically interviewed me with him who reported on the situation in Hong Kong. As he was too busy, I personally did not see how he used the materials to interview me later. On another occasion in London, I was interviewed at the BBC headquarters. The presenter not only asked sharp questions, but also arrogant ones. I also politely rebutted the other party. After the interview, the presenter smiled and told me that our interview is like this, so I don’t care. I didn’t really think of that.
Not long ago a famous BBC presenter interviewed me online, the question was full of arrogance and prejudice, and I didn’t know much about China. Old Hu is used to it.
The BBC’s anti-China reports in the past two years, especially the Xinjiang-related reports, I believe that Sha Lei is not only personally responsible, but will eventually show that this is a blemish on his journalistic career. I will not go into details. He has lived in China for 9 years. You should know more than ordinary Westerners what China is like. I must say that many of your reports ignore conscience.
The counterterrorism situation in Xinjiang has been very tense in recent years, and it should be very clear. In recent years, Xinjiang has taken more de-radicalization measures than normal, which were forced by the real and urgent situation, and after the adoption, the goal of stabilizing the situation in Xinjiang was achieved. He also understood and fully understood this logic.
Xinjiang’s de-radicalization measures, if carefully studied in accordance with Western ideas, will certainly be able to spot the flaw. However, those measures saved the situation in Xinjiang, restored peace and tranquility, and guaranteed the most basic right of people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang to be free from terrorist attacks and riots.
Different people have different opinions on the pros and cons, but Xinjiang’s governors assign responsibility and goodwill to all of this. His original intention to rule is to benefit the people of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang, including the Uighurs, without the evil intention of persecuting ethnic minorities. Sha Lei’s perspective on Xinjiang should include at least this dimension of thinking, and it should also introduce this dimension into Western society.
China emphasizes national unity and has a basic socialist system. Sha Lei has also traveled to Xinjiang many times. How could the “genocide” be staged there? How can there be “forced labor” on a large scale? Sha Lei interviewed the director of Volkswagen in China in November last year and asked him why the other party had not removed the Xinjiang factory. Are factories coming out of Xinjiang good for Uighurs? The political and public opinion elites of New York and London fell into ideological fanaticism and lost their minds, Sha Lei did not know what was happening.
However, it not only caters to extreme anti-China sentiment in the West, it also constantly fabricates reports to create and provide new shells of public opinion for hatred of China. Is this the performance of a responsible journalist in this era?
I realized that some of Sha Lei’s films lacked the facts themselves and made a great deal of material that was “altered” during the interview process. I would like to say that it is not because he is a BBC reporter that he is special. Many parts of China’s grassroots are reluctant to cooperate with media reports, but he describes this general situation as organized action in Xinjiang to cover up the persecution. of the Uyghurs., exaggerated the rejection and vigilance of some interviewees towards systemic repression.
As a result, as an interviewer, he often became a prominent role in the report. This time he “escaped” to Taiwan, which was even more publicized. He completely became the “protagonist.” Journalists should downplay their roles as much as possible. Sha Lei didn’t interview many facts, so she used prominent personal roles to integrate herself. This is not a good professional style and it is quite boring.
Finally, I want to say that Sha Lei is not brave enough. It’s like Hua Chunying asked: What ran? Even if Xinjiang people demand it, it’s a bit troublesome, what can they do to it? Have there been so many reporters in the journalism industry who were scared by reporters’ reports? He fled the place of the report and then accused him in the air, becoming very tragic. Do you really think this is very honorable?
