Chapter 15 All truth is propaganda (1)

The British writer George Bernard Shaw once said: All literature is propaganda.This sentence tells us that we think that politics is propaganda, but in fact all literature is also propaganda.I can add this sentence, which is: All truth is propaganda, and many truths and the understanding of the truth are known only through propaganda. I once said that the Chinese Communist Party’s ability to unify China has something to do with its good propaganda skills in the past, and it has something to do with its excellent propaganda.However, according to my observations over the past few decades, I feel that the current Chinese Communist Party is not as good as it used to be in terms of propaganda.What is the reason? Because they have some scruples.Simply, now they have figured out this scruple, and the very wise people in them have figured it out. They feel that those scruples and words that are scruples can still be discussed.

Today, I would like to talk to you about a book written by Mr. Qian Qichen, which was only published in February this year. What is this book? It is called the latest publication.This book, everyone, has ten themes written in it, the first is the normalization of Sino-Soviet relations, and the sixth theme is called Dark Clouds Overwhelming Cities.Looking at this topic, I can't tell what he is talking about. After reading this chapter (content), I realized that what he is talking about is the so-called Tiananmen incident that some people in charge of propaganda today avoid talking about.Mr. Qian Qichen talked about this very wisely in his book.So, I can also talk about the Tiananmen incident in my program today, just as he blamed him.Although these five words are very alarming, they are not. We can face this matter.

Let's see how Mr. Qian Qichen talked about this incident. The words "Tiananmen incident" appeared twice in his book. First, when he was in a foreign country, it was on the afternoon of June 3, which was the morning of Beijing time on the 4th. , He went to a foreign country and heard the so-called Tiananmen incident provided by the media.Did you see these five words mentioned in Qian Qichen’s book, and he talked about it again, he met Chairman Castro in Cuba, and then he introduced to Chairman Castro in detail what he knew about “Tiananmen Square” event".He said that Chairman Castro told me that China needs to be united, and that anarchy cannot occur as the Western countries hope. If that happens, it will be a tragedy for the whole world.Qian Qichen also said that at that time foreign students came to surround him and ask him. He met them very frankly, told them, and persuaded them to learn more about the real situation, not to listen to the wind and the rain.He told everyone very clearly that the "Tiananmen Incident" was specially processed and translated by foreign media or some countries with ulterior motives. It is really not the case.

Then we can see the secret conversation between him and Deng Xiaoping: I told Comrade Xiaoping that the summit meeting of the Seven Western Countries will be held soon, and I don’t know what to announce, to take sanctions against China.Foreign countries, seven countries are united to boycott China.Comrade Deng Xiaoping said firmly: Don't talk about the seven countries, the seventy countries are useless.He also pointed out that Sino-US relations should be improved, but we should not be afraid. Fear is useless. The Chinese should have the spirit and ambition of the Chinese. When have we been afraid of others? At that time, we were at an absolute disadvantage and had no air superiority at all, but we were never afraid.The image of China is that it is not afraid of ghosts and does not believe in evil.Then Comrade Xiaoping said earnestly: foreign affairs—diplomatic work must pay attention to this issue, which means that we are not afraid of the blockade of China led by the United States by taking advantage of the so-called Tiananmen incident.We are not afraid.

After this situation, the Americans played two-faced tactics. On the one hand, President Bush of the United States joined forces with some countries in the world to scold China all day long, saying: Tiananmen incident, why did you make such a scene? Boycott you China.Then, the same American President Bush wrote a personal letter to Deng Xiaoping.Let's see what Qian Qichen said: President Bush also said in the letter, please understand that this is a personal letter, (I) attach great importance to the secret between you (Deng Xiaoping) and me.Then, Deng Xiaoping pointed out that the United States was deeply involved in China's internal affairs, and later took the lead in imposing sanctions on China, which violated China's interests and dignity to a large extent. The responsibility for the difficulties lies entirely with the United States and should be resolved by the United States.See? Say it clearly.Do you see it?

Even so, when the United States secretly negotiates with China, hoping to resolve this matter, Chinese leaders are also willing to talk to them.Who did they send to talk? They sent US Secretary of State Baker to China to talk.The discussion was very interesting. Did you see that on human rights issues, China adheres to the principle of non-interference in internal affairs, and at the same time notified some "concerns" of the US side-I can talk to you, but you can't control it.As for the United States, it produced a long list of so-called "dissidents" who were arrested, among which there were many mistakes.Some only have pinyin, no one is written, and there are no Chinese characters, so I don’t know who they are referring to.On the list, there is a person named Wu Jianmin.Qian Qichen said to Baker: "The director of our Information Department is called Wu Jianmin, and he is on the scene." At this time, this Wu Jianmin said: "Yes, I am Wu Jianmin." The US Secretary of State Baker was very embarrassed after seeing it, but He was still very alert, and immediately said: "Oh, you have been released." This caused a roar of laughter.What is the reason? You in the United States randomly opened the list and opened the list randomly. We did not arrest these people. You said we did, and this was the result.

So, as a whole, in this chapter, these messages are revealed.As for this book, let me tell you that this was the first edition in October last year, and it was printed for the seventh time in February this year. The one I bought was the seventh printing.In other words, a book that was published a month ago.
