The news network was originally the official channel for the people on the mainland to learn about national events and world news, but it was regarded by some people with good intentions as a medium to divide up the superior and inferior people. is even more unashamed and outspoken, and regards those who don't watch the news broadcast as inferior!
And the host of such a bewildering speech turned out to be a university professor and communications expert on the mainland. He is Xiang Ligang, so why did Xiang Ligang make such an outrageous assertion? Six years later, what is Xiang Ligang's current situation?
1. "If you don't watch the news broadcast, you are inferior".
The cause of Xiang Ligang's public opinion turmoil was that in 2018, he suddenly posted a Weibo on social media. It unabashedly claimed that "those who don't watch the news broadcast are inferior people, and they don't need to know about national affairs, and they won't succeed."
As soon as the remarks came out, they aroused heated discussions among netizens, and even more made Xiang Ligang fall into a storm of public opinion. Among them, netizens are mainly divided into two factions, one faction thinks that Xiang Ligang is too "pretending" and judging ordinary people with a lofty attitude.
The other is that Xiang Ligang is reasonable. News broadcasts are the most official medium for Chinese people to obtain international and domestic news. It not only helps the mainland people to increase their knowledge, but also helps the mainland people improve their knowledge and cultivate their thinking habits.
As an expert in the field of communications in mainland China, why would he suddenly attack people who don't watch news broadcasts on social media?
In an interview with relevant media afterwards, Xiang Ligang explained the public opinion incident. The reason is that when he watched the programs of Taiwan Provincial Television Station, he found that the television programs in Taiwan Province only had two categories: political programs and entertainment news, which were far less meaningful than China's CCTV programs.
However, when Xiang Ligang communicated with his friends in Taiwan, the other party denied Xiang Ligang's views. and ridiculed Xiang Ligang, saying that there is only one program in China, "News Network", and other programs have no sense of existence.
and also ridiculed "News Network", claiming that the content of the news network was too old-fashioned, which made Xiang Ligang dissatisfied.
Combined with the differences between the two TV stations, Xiang Ligang believes that the audience can broaden their horizons and increase their knowledge by watching more official "News Network" programs. Viewers who don't watch "News Network" don't have the ability to think about national events, and it's difficult to get things done.
As for the fermentation of the incident, a large number of netizens were indiscriminately attacked by Xiang Ligang, and Xiang Ligang even expressed his apologies. It made it clear that the remarks were only intended to be disseminated on a small scale, and that there must be someone pushing for such a large-scale fermentation.
Xiang Ligang also explained the concept of "inferiority", which is at the heart of the controversy. Xiang Ligang said that in his heart, the superior person has never been a rich or powerful person, but a brave, responsible, and self-improvement person.
As for the understanding of inferior people, it is a lazy person, a greedy person, an insatiable person, a person who is ungrateful and does not know how to give. There is no connection with social status or economic income.
Therefore, Xiang Ligang felt very aggrieved by the abuse of netizens, and believed that his statement was misinterpreted by people with intentions, and he was also a victim of netizens' dissatisfaction.
Although Xiang Ligang explained his previous speeches, he did not cause a storm of public opinion like his previous speeches. In the end, Xiang Ligang gradually disappeared from public view and retreated into the background.
So 6 years have passed, so what is Xiang Ligang's life now, and what impact has the former public opinion storm had on his life?
2. After 6 years, Xiang Ligang's current situation
Xiang Ligang, a native of Wuhu, Anhui Province, is one of China's experts in the field of communications. He is also one of the special commentators of CCTV and Phoenix Satellite TV, and his social status is quite high.
But what few people know is that Xiang Ligang, who is now a university professor, turned out to be a secondary school with his first degree. Due to the failure of the college entrance examination, he could only be admitted to the Anhui Provincial Commercial School, which is the predecessor of the current Anhui Vocational and Technical College of Commerce and Trade.
The Waterloo of the college entrance examination did not dampen Xiang Ligang's enthusiasm for learning, but further aroused his motivation for learning. After graduation, he was successfully admitted to Chinese Renmin University through 7 years of self-study, and the trajectory of his life was completely changed.
In the process of studying at university, Xiang Ligang developed a strong interest in many disciplines such as literary psychology and cathartic psychology. Moreover, he read a lot of books in the university and built a complete knowledge network, which laid a solid foundation for subsequent cross-border development.
After graduation, Xiang Ligang came to work at the People's Posts and Telecommunications Publishing House. Later, in cooperation with the Taiwanese magazine PChome, I came into contact with university computer applications for the first time.
At that time, it was still 1993, and computers were not popularized in the country. Xiang Ligang enrolled in a computer professional research class to study, and became one of the earliest netizens in the mainland.
Xiang Ligang discovered the influence of computer technology on news dissemination, and actively developed Internet communication projects in his follow-up work, gradually growing into an expert in the field of communication in mainland China.
Since 1999, Xiang Ligang has served as the director of the market development department of the Beijing Posts and Telecommunications News Agency, and has played a pivotal role in the development of the mainland's communication network. He also took the lead in creating the "Communication World" column, which integrated news, information, policies, regulations and many other information.
With the gradual rise of new Internet media, traditional paper media has gradually declined. Xiang Ligang quit his job at Communication World to start his own business, and in 2007 he founded Feixiang.com to study Internet theory and related Internet products.
With advanced knowledge of Internet theory, it put forward the concept of intelligent Internet in 2014. He has been invited to give lectures at Chinese University and Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications for many times, and has been hired as a part-time professor by the University of Posts and Telecommunications.
And the storm of public opinion that "if you don't watch the news broadcast, you are inferior" became a turning point in his personal career. Previously, as the CEO of Feixiang.com, he had the idea of coming to the front of the stage and shaping himself into a well-known source of traffic for Feixiang.com.
With the increasing fermentation of public opinion, Xiang Ligang gradually gave up the idea of coming to the stage. Instead, he returned to the background and was busy with work.
Six years have passed, and the impact of the public opinion storm on Xiang Ligang's life is very limited. His normal work has not been seriously affected, and he still lectures and negotiations on time.
And his speech in front of the public has also changed from the previous hot news to a relatively professional article in the field of communication. For example, the interpretation of Huawei's 5G technology, the development and transformation of the 5G industry, Tesla's electric vehicles, and so on.
And most of its remarks and opinions are also for domestic brands. The criticism of foreign technology reflects a strong sense of national identity. Looking at Xiang Ligang's public opinion remarks now, it seems that there is a sense of "being angry and indisputable".
So what is the real meaning behind Xiang Ligang's remarks that "those who don't watch the news broadcast are inferior"?
3. The real meaning behind Xiang Ligang's "absurd" speech
Through Xiang Ligang's resume, we can see that he studied communication at the beginning, and with the development of the Internet economy, he turned to the Internet field.
In recent years, China has been influenced by foreign Western culture, and media news has developed towards entertainment and gimmick. The traditional way of news dissemination has been transformed, becoming utilitarian and flow-oriented.
The direct impact of the entertainment of news dissemination is that the seriousness of the news will be reduced, which will lead to the loss of credibility of the news. In order to pursue the traffic of netizens, the media conducts all kinds of gimmicks with no lower limit for ordinary news, which is actually overdrawing the vitality of the news industry.
In addition, it is the curiosity and entertainment psychology of contemporary young people, which makes them feel very useful for pan-entertainment news. Immersed in reality shows, entertainment shows, and singing and dancing, I feel repulsed by serious reality news.
If this trend develops for a long time, it will lead to young people on the mainland indulging in a hotbed of Internet weaving. He lost the ability to think independently, forgot the responsibility of reviving China on his shoulders, and became lazy and greedy.
The current wave of entertainment is undoubtedly not conducive to cultivating the spirit of hardship and hard work among young people on the mainland. Therefore, Xiang Li was angry just now, lashed out at entertaining programs, and vigorously praised serious programs like "News Network".
Throughout Japan and South Korea, the invasion of entertainment culture has made its young people lose their fighting spirit. Japan even gave birth to the Showa generation, which is nicknamed the "generation that crossed over"!
In the future, the mainland will avoid following in the footsteps of Japan and South Korea, and reverse the current status quo of traffic being king and entertainment to death, and it is necessary to make corresponding rectifications to the current entertainment programs.
The key to improving the current excessive level of online media entertainment is to punish unscrupulous media. Establish complete rules and regulations to crack down on and punish unscrupulous media that carry out false propaganda and gimmick propaganda.
For pan-entertainment films, television, music, novels and other animation literary works, it is necessary to make a sound supervision system to limit the occurrence of the continuous and severe situation of entertainment.
The second is to increase patriotic education for contemporary young people and cultivate young people's love for history and politics. Cultivate children's interest in watching serious programs such as "News Network" and cultivate a sense of national identity.
epilogue
Xiang Ligang was originally an expert in the field of telecommunications in the mainland, but he was dissatisfied with the phenomenon of excessive entertainment on the mainland's current media network. After careful consideration, he issued an exclamation that "if you don't watch "News Network", you are inferior", which aroused public opinion.
Attacked by public opinion, Xiang Ligang has gradually retired behind the scenes and focused on his work. Behind Xiang Ligang's absurd speech is a criticism of the phenomenon of entertainment to death on the mainland. In the future, the mainland needs to standardize and adjust the entertainment industry to improve the sense of national identity.
