[@tenki_desu]

Skylab Lmao

[@haotianxie6684]

Skylab the reporter was setting up a trap, asking Jiang whether he “supports” that Hong Kong official or not. If Jiang said yes, the headline next day would be Mainland government appoints Hong Kong SAR’s top official, breaking the agreement of Hong Kong’s freedom of election. If Jiang says no, the headline would be chairman of China is openly against official elected thru democratic process in Hong Kong. Consequently no matter how Jiang answers the question, he would be painted in a bad way by that reporter. Jiang sees thru that, which is why Jiang calls the reporter too simple, too naive, compared the reporter to Wallace, who also tried to set up trick questions like this during his interview with Jiang but had done so more sophisticatedly (Jiang did not fall into Wallace’s traps either). Jiang then proceeds to very clearly explain that his support doesn’t mean appointment from the government itself, and whether he supports or not doesn’t matter because the official was elected by Hong Kong people, answering the trick question without leaving any loose end for defamation. If this kind of questions were asked to Xi, he wouldn’t bother to answer at all. So could Jiang, but Jiang in this video couldn’t resist to teach the reporter a lesson.

@@marcusatiusvirilis7723 They are both non ideological pragmatists focused on their own national interest, as opposed to the more ideologically driven who have succeeded Jiang and preceded Trump. Jiang's was the hand picked successor to Deng Xiaoping who famously said "don't care if it's a black cat or a white cat, as long as it catches mice, it's at good cat". Jiang presided of China's fastest period of growth, and though the US is a mature market, we're also seeing the results of a leader focused on economic growth and ultimately jobs. Surely would they would disagree about what they would like to see happen, as China and US interests are largely a zero sum game, but as for a debate, I'm pretty sure they would mostly agree about what should be done and why, with the exception of Trump and the US being very open to public disagreement and protest. These two would be more suitable for a "panel discussion" than a debate. For full disclosure, there's reason to believe that Zhu Rongji was actually the one working behind the scenes to make Jiang look successful.

[@wujijianchuqiao]

He lost control because he thought that Hongkong reporters didn't get to ask HIM tough questions, so he decided to teach them a lesson. And that is because he thought Hongkong was already part of China and the reporters there should behave themselves, more or less like those from the mainland. That's the real reason he showed his true side (I suspect there was no western media present on that day). If a reporter from the Chinese Central Television dared to ask him a similar question, Jiang would immediately fire the chief of that TV station and call this a serious political incident.

[@jfp5653]

i think u r wrong. Jiang met many reports, especially Wallace, an American interviewer. u can find some videos about him and Wallace who mentioned autocracy, Fa Lungong,and etc. In this video in Hong Kong, it does not mean he didn't dare to answer the question put forward by the young reporter, but mean those young reporters of Mandarin and Hong Kong are supposed to improve their questions' quantity because the question in the video is so easy to Jiang, and Jiang must thought you are too naive to ask much experienced politician, or someone having higer status abroad.

[@haotianxie6684]

Roman I don’t think you guys got the point, which is understandable since you are likely not familiar with the relationship between China and Hong Kong SAR. Hong Kong is a special region in China that has a different political system granted for 50 years. During which Hong Kong would have a democratic system. At the time of this video, the new top official of Hong Kong, who was sitting next to Jiang, was just elected. What happened was that the reporter was setting up a trap/trick question, asking Jiang whether he “supports” that Hong Kong official or not. If Jiang had said yes, the headline next day would be “Mainland government appoints Hong Kong SAR’s top official”, breaking the agreement of Hong Kong’s freedom of election. If Jiang had said no, the headline would be “chairman of China is openly against official elected thru democratic process in Hong Kong.” Consequently no matter how Jiang answers the question, he would be painted in a bad way by that reporter, which is what the reporter was clearly trying to do here. Jiang sees thru that, which is why Jiang called the reporter “too simple, too naive”, and compared her to Wallace, a famous American reporter at the time, and the first person to have interviewed the chairman of China. During that interview, he also tried to set up trick questions like this but had done so more sophisticatedly (Jiang did not fall into Wallace’s traps either). Jiang then proceeded to very clearly explain that his support doesn’t mean appointment from the government itself, and whether he supports or not doesn’t matter because the official was elected by Hong Kong people, answering the trick question without leaving any loose end for defamation. If this kind of questions were asked to Xi, he wouldn’t bother to answer at all. Likewise Jiang didn’t have to either, but Jiang in this video couldn’t resist to teach the reporter a lesson.

The collectivism; the utter lack of regard for the individual is what bothers most of us. For instance: on the surface, I like the social credit philosophy. We all want to see the assholes punished for being assholes, but a line has got to be drawn. Compulsory reeducation, and compulsory organ harvesting really rankles westerner's sensibilities.

He is a classic narcissist. He has a sense of superiority and grandiosity. She asked him a curly question and he shut her down by belittling her and playing the goodguy, the victim, the suffering martyr, the smart guy with all the wisdom there is on earth and the hero that wants the best for everyone. His body language too when he got out of his chair and indignantly approached her in an intimidating manner was narcissistic. The anger and rage that was simmering in him too is narcissistic. Enablers will blame the reporter and side with the narcissist and that shows their dangerous naivety. As with all cluster b's they are very dangerous creatures and even more dangerous when they are in government positions controlling the weapons.

The problem with the question lies in the answer because each answer could be interpreted differently by that same reporter... There fore he answered that the reported gave a naive question that can not be answered in a proper way and might even cause dispute among viewers, might cause misunderstandings of the current situation or may lead in panic slight propaganda among the masses over the non existent matters... Indeed reporters should learn what some of their questions lead towards and what kind of double meaning they could lead to..

As unprofessional as this was, it's pretty interesting to see a Chinese leader be so upfront and straightforward with these reporters. He might have been shouting them down but he was still almost entertaining a conversation about the topic with them where he defended his actions and views. He let his guard down with them and acted like a human. He seems like a guy you can almost talk to. Xi today, as most of the other comments said, would ignore the question flatly, if the reporters were able to or even wanted to ask him.

[@dimelo3027]

XP_Studios well first of all a good leader is not necessarily elected by the people because citizens make poor decisions sometimes and if it’s the matter of billions of population, we can’t simply choose whoever , it’s a very tricky thing.and btw democracy is never gonna work for China cut all the bias thoughts honestly same politics don’t work on all the countries that’s what I found people nowadays , cut that aside, people need to at least respect the laws and rules of one individual country , who is gonna judge the Arab kingdom for some of their extreme law enforcement that other places wouldn’t accept ? There is no perfect form of policies that satisfy everyone at the same time , things are improving and don’t get brainwashed by the west , the America era is almost ending and the world is evolving u can’t just simply think that the world is still working base on American standards . Free of speech doesn’t work on many many countries and don’t misunderstand the meaning of it and abuse it .that’s what many people do nowadays . Sometimes people have to pay for what came out of their mouth. That’s why u can’t speak recklessly in the court and then simply change your statement because of “freedom of speech” and don’t forget China is China , it has their own set of rules and way of life which might has a conflict with the west but eventually China is not putting their standard against the west , which means we expect the west should at least respect it . U may find many Chinese are speaking or defending for the country or the ccp especially in the topic of human rights. Some of their statement might have conflicting your ideas which makes you think they are brainwashed . But standing on the other side on a different perspective , why not at least try to understand why . World media is not reliable and people get to see what they are apportioned to see. That’s the universal rules . So keep your head clear and try to look at the world more precisely u may find many different stuff that you would’ve never expected. China has gotten rid of the title of communism that’s what many people know but don’t wanna accept. It’s fully capitalism and socialism which completely go against communism . I know there is no point of saying it but look, the world fear communism and even us we feared the past communist 30 years ago , the west media surely over exaggerate too much and thats why when Chinese people see these stuffs and westerners comments they feel unbelievable. Because it’s not really true all the time. Step out of your comfortzone and go out go actually be in China u will find the difference .

I think in part it shows the more chaotic, or at least less cohesive, era China was in.

Now of course the presidents are senile so thats changed somewhat

Donald Trump always got out of his way to say some reckless shit while George Bush always got out of his way to say some goofy ass shit while Joe Biden always gets out of his way to talk about ice cream. If anything the US government has become a less and less polished media machine, constantly spewing out conflicting nonsensical information. Back in the olden days there was no other option than to trust what the papers said, there was no conflicting opinion. Therefore presidents could say whatever they wanted as long as it sounded overall good. So what we hear about presidents 200 years ago is probably just heavily edited truth or a lie.
