In the past three months, the violent acts of radical demonstrators in Hong Kong have escalated, which has seriously affected Hong Kong's rule of law, social order, economy and people's livelihood and international image. The once prosperous and stable "Pearl of the Orient" has been so impacted that all people who love Hong Kong are saddened.
In this regard, the famous patriotic singer Zhang Mingmin spoke again a few days ago, shouting at the young people in Hong Kong: "Everyone looks back at their own deeds. As a young person, do you feel right? As a Hong Konger, do you think you are right? At the same time, we call on all Hong Kong citizens with conscience to seriously consider how to guide young people to the right path.
Zhang Mingmin, whose ancestral home is Jinjiang, Fujian Province, was born in Hong Kong in September 1956. In 1984, zhang Mingmin became a well-known patriotic singer by singing "My Chinese Heart" on stage at the Spring Festival Gala, and since then he has also sung many familiar songs, including "Grandma's Penghu Bay" and "The Chinese Nation".
After 35 years, when there was violence in Hong Kong, Zhang Mingmin once again showed his "Chinese heart" with actions.
At the "police rally" held in Hong Kong on June 30, Zhang Mingmin spoke out in support of the Hong Kong police. He braved the rain to lead the people to raise their arms and shout: "Support the Hong Kong government, I am Chinese!" "Encourage everyone to unite in the face of challenges.
In an interview with Phoenix.com on August 22, Zhang Mingmin once again said that he opposed any violence or riot, "As a young person, the government is dissatisfied with family and friends, the degree of venting, I am not sure, I hope they take their behavior seriously." ”
At the same time, Zhang Mingmin pointed out that the SAR government should vigorously step up its efforts in patriotic education: "'One country, two systems' is not independent, it is not a matter of leaving the mainland of the motherland. ”
A few days ago, Zhang Mingmin spoke again about the still complicated and severe situation in Hong Kong.
According to a CCTV news client reported on September 7, Zhang Mingmin mentioned in an interview that he has been paying attention to what has happened in Hong Kong in recent times and is deeply saddened by the violent activities. Cheung believes that the televised speech delivered by Hong Kong SAR Chief Executive Carrie Lam on Wednesday (September 4) was sincere. At present, the most important thing in Hong Kong society is to stop violence and control chaos.
"The current situation in Hong Kong is very difficult and very difficult. Moreover, Hong Kong's international status in the past few months has been greatly affected by the mainland and the world. ”
Cheung mentioned that he believes that what he is currently infuriating is that some opposition members of the Hong Kong Legislative Council have maliciously instigated and provoked the emotions of young people. He called on all Hong Kong citizens with conscience to seriously consider how to guide young people to the right path.
"I would also like to say a few words to all my young friends here, that everyone should look back and see what they have done. In the past few months, everyone has run to the airport, run to the road, and go to the street almost every day. A hostile attitude was also adopted towards different opinions and different clothes. As a young person, do you feel right? As a Hong Konger, do you think you are right? We Hong Kong people all over the world are very polite and well-behaved. I think our aura has all been ruined in these few months, so Hong Kong has to start again. Zhang Mingmin said.
In the interview, Zhang Mingmin repeatedly mentioned the word "starting over", saying that strengthening the national education of young people in Hong Kong is an urgent task facing the government. Through national education, young people should better understand their motherland and let patriotic feelings be deeply planted in everyone's heart.
Hearing Zhang Mingmin's words, netizens also deeply agreed.
In response to the illegal assemblies and violent incidents that have occurred in Hong Kong in recent days, the Information Office of the State Council held a press conference in Beijing on September 3, and Yang Guang, spokesman for the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council, said that the situation in Hong Kong is undergoing positive changes but is still complicated and severe, and it has now reached an important juncture to safeguard the bottom line of the "one country, two systems" principle and safeguard Hong Kong's prosperity and stability.
Yang Guang pointed out that all those who really care about Hong Kong and cherish Hong Kong should polish their eyes and take a firm stand, and clearly understand that there is no middle ground on the issue of stopping violence and controlling chaos, which is a major issue of right and wrong and which has a bearing on hong Kong's future and destiny, and there is no room for hesitation, wandering, and wavering. If we truly love Hong Kong, we will resolutely safeguard "one country, two systems." If we truly love Hong Kong, we must resolutely say no to all acts that harm Hong Kong's prosperity and stability and challenge "one country, two systems" with practical actions!
