Trump Welcomes, Rebels Protest: On-Site Highlights
This episode live-streamed the scene of Xi Jinping's visit to the United States and his reception by Trump in Washington. A large crowd of pro-CCP supporters gathered alongside overseas dissidents, members of the Democracy Party of China, and rights activists who oppose the CCP, leading to verbal and physical clashes between the two sides. The program connected with a reporter on the scene, showcased the protesters' demands and the real stories behind them, and reported on and analyzed phenomena such as the on-site security and the provision of boxed meals to the welcoming crowd.

Hello viewers, welcome to today's China-US comparison live broadcast. I am Qi Xiaotian. Today we are looking at the scene of Xi Jinping's visit to the United States and Trump coming to meet the plane. Today's program is quite special because our channel's 11-Jiang, whom everyone likes very much, is on the scene at the airport waiting for General Secretary Xi to get off the plane. Alright, I won't say much more now, let's see if we can connect with 11-Jiang, because Xi Jinping's plane should have just landed. Okay, I will call 11-Jiang, please wait a moment. The crowd opposing him is in a standoff here. Just now, those opposing him made a—I don't know if it was a coffin—and the supporters tore it up, and two people got into a scuffle. Later, when our live broadcast here ends, you must show the video I just sent you. Okay, okay, I definitely will. The sound on the scene is a bit noisy now, I don't know if you can hear me okay. It's no problem on my end. Viewers, if you can't hear clearly on your end, please leave a comment. Okay. 11-Jiang, I will show everyone that video in a moment.
So yesterday, this coffin should have been shown to everyone on the program. At that time, there was also a verbal altercation between the two sides. And at that time, a person supporting the CCP came out and kicked an anti-CCP person. Today, we see that this violence has escalated. Alright, let's look at 11-Jiang's footage. Is everyone's sound okay? There are still a lot of people. I don't know if you can hear the sound on the scene. It's not particularly clear on our end, we can just hear a little bit of what they are shouting. These here should be the supporters, and those over there are the opponents. But the supporters definitely have an absolute advantage in terms of numbers. Of course, we have seen many organizations from the CCP side present over these past few days. There was indeed a rather intense conflict just now, it felt like they were about to fight. Now it has returned to a stalemate. Just a moment ago, I don't know why those four people were all scuffling together. Alright, let me see if I can get this video out for everyone, please wait a moment. You can see that the ones with white flags here are basically the opponents, and those holding American flags over here are all supporters.
I see a red patch on the ground, it looks like paint, pointing to the bottom right corner. Is that paint on the ground? I feel like there is a sense of an impending fight here because you can see this road is particularly narrow, and the two sides are shouting at each other across this street. So this scene is very representative. It is the same Xi Jinping and the same Washington D.C., yet it presents two completely different voices. We can see that the person dressed like Winnie the Pooh is definitely anti-CCP, and the other side supports the Communist Party. They are not actually separated by a large distance, just a small, busy distance. I don't know if Teacher Li can hear what I'm saying here; he might not be able to hear me while he is livestreaming, so I will provide some commentary for everyone. There are many police officers on-site maintaining order. You can see the police cars parked behind me, and there are also many Americans here joining in the excitement. You can see that in front of McDonald's, there were many Americans standing there just now; they watched them fight, and some took out their phones to record it. There was also an American who went to take a photo with a Chinese person protesting against Xi Jinping to express his support.
I have also sent this interview to you, you can use it. Okay, now I will play the video of the fight that Teacher Li captured just now. Hurry up, bring it over, hurry up and play the piano! Play the piano! Oh, look, this person is... Hey, hello, hello, Mr. Wang, hello, uh, is this Mr. Wang Junhao? Hello, hello, it seems like we haven't seen each other for a long time. Hey, you also came to this scene today, what voice are you trying to express? Oh, I want to express three things. The first thing is... it's too noisy here. We've arrived here. But I'm afraid your voice won't be picked up. Go ahead and speak. Yes. The first thing is, I came here to tell Xi Jinping that on this free land of the United States, he will be held accountable. Because in China, he can have the final say, and although he is being treated as a state guest for a state visit in the United States today, on this free land, we can still make our own voices heard. Secondly, we want to shout out the voices that are suppressed in China. This voice is that Xi Jinping is actually very unpopular now. The Communist Party has brought disaster to the country and the people for 70 years, and Xi Jinping is actually doing even worse than the Communist Party. Because no matter what, before the Communist Party came to power, there were still some people who could live a moderately prosperous life. It wasn't just the corrupt officials; in fact, many ordinary people clearly felt that their lives had changed. But since he came to power, the people are truly living in misery.
And the last point is, I hope the U.S. government and the people of the world will see Xi Jinping's true face. As long as Xi Jinping and the Communist Party are still here, the world will not be at peace. Originally, I really hoped to... time is too tight, I really hoped to write down slogans: Do not forget the thousands of Americans who lost their lives in Korea and Vietnam, lives taken away by the CCP. Also, during the pandemic in the past two years, 1.2 million Americans lost their lives. This is more than the total number of deaths in all of America's wars since its founding. The United States should not forget this history. So, how do you view the fact that U.S. President Trump is hosting Xi Jinping with such high-level protocol? President Trump is the kind of person who, when he wants to focus on solving a problem, likes to dizzy people—swaying left and then swaying right. This is a strategy, but you can see that before this visit, China and the United States held negotiations for a long time. For example, Bessent and He Lifeng held 12 hours of talks. The CCP made demands, and the U.S. did not agree to a single one, such as not selling arms to Taiwan, not supporting Taiwan, etc. The U.S. did not agree, so Xi Jinping's itinerary was almost in doubt. I estimate that a showdown is coming in the United States.
You know, Xi Jinping... the U.S. had already officially announced that the two had reached an agreement in May, but Xi Jinping only announced that he was coming to the United States the morning before yesterday; China only officially announced it then. And look at the UN delegation, was it late? Like the meeting on September 22, they announced it five hours earlier. The Chinese delegation was led by Han Zheng. And it was two days late, missing the most important strategy of September 22. You can see that, in fact, Xi Jinping is already a bit distracted regarding the negotiations. So do you think there will be any results from the negotiations between the leaders of China and the U.S. this time? Or do you have any expectations or outlook? It has no meaning. The world... now China and the whole world... can the two of them have the final say? I assume that even if Xi Jinping were a reformer like those in the past, a Communist reformer, and President Trump is also someone who... not like modern... President Trump is a bit immature now. People are very anxious, and there are many problems to solve, but in terms of the environment and society in China, he is a bit too steady.
Even so, I think that even if he were to return to office, the human world has too many problems that are difficult for the two of them to solve. Moreover, Xi Jinping is actually dismantling his wealth, and Trump also knows that the international issue he needs to solve—China being the number one target—was first brought up by him; Biden just systematized it. Then there are the major domestic issues in the U.S., such as industrial flight, all of which require solving the Xi Jinping problem. So, I actually think the high-level attention Trump gives indicates that he values someone. But I always say that if Trump values someone, it is definitely not a good thing, because he will use extreme pressure, attacking from both sides, and alternating between hot and cold to deal with you. So you can see that based on Trump's experience, the CCP is actually very nervous and very fearful. You should have arrived at the scene a step earlier than us. Based on your observations today, whether it's the side supporting Xi Jinping or the side opposing him, have there been any physical or verbal conflicts? I saw one here just now, but I don't know if there were others earlier.
I said that last year, our people were beaten to the ground, their ears were bleeding, and you all just watched without saying a word. Look at me, I don't approve of our people using profanity. I think their people, look, have very indifferent expressions. I said, 'CCP get out of America,' they know what they are doing. Look at these people, look at how engaged our people are, they are always engaged, while their people are very lazy and unwilling. Oh, look, they're here, they're here, they're banging gongs here. That's our side, and many Americans are taking pictures here, see? They probably think it's lively. I'm looking for you guys. I'll put this away now, I don't need it here, and I have the energy to use it later. I will interrupt the live interview with Yao Jiang for a moment because we see Trump and First Lady Melania have arrived, so it is possible that Xi Jinping will come out soon. Xi Jinping's plane has landed, so the President and the First Lady have arrived. Okay, let's go back to Yao Jiang. Okay, Xi Jinping and Peng Liyuan have just stepped off the plane.
This reception is not particularly symmetrical between the U.S. and China, because when Trump visited China, Xi Jinping did not come to greet him in person. However, this time, Trump is greeting him in person. Oh, they are shaking hands. Let me adjust, both sides are still full of smiles. Hmm, I see the interpreters on the side are actually interpreting, but we can't hear what they are saying. Oh, wait, Yao Jiang is calling us, let's go back. I haven't finished showing the video from the scene just now, so I can show it to everyone later. But for now, because Trump has just arrived, I am switching back and forth between your side and Trump's side. Okay, I see that Xi Jinping and Trump are not talking about much, so I will first show everyone the conflict that Yao Jiang filmed on the spot. This is also a conflict between those who support the CCP and those who oppose it. Let's take a look. Okay, we see these people supporting the CCP kicking and destroying the coffin.
That coffin was made by anti-CCP activists, it should have been labeled as Xi Jinping's or the CCP's coffin. But now you see it being kicked to pieces by others. After watching this rather impulsive scene, a scene with significant conflict, let's return to the current scene of Xi Jinping and Trump. So, I find that in such occasions, once Xi Jinping comes to the U.S., many Chinese dissidents in the U.S. will come out to stage protests. Because in China, they certainly cannot say anything against Xi Jinping or against China. So, there might be some outbursts here. However, the issue is that in this situation, we see that the anti-CCP activists are still relatively restrained and have not resorted to violence; perhaps both sides are just shouting insults. But what everyone saw on Yao Jiang's feed just now was, of course, some elderly people supporting the CCP coming over and destroying the personal property of those opposing the CCP.
In the United States, this should legally entail a certain level of punishment. Of course, everyone has the freedom of speech; whether you support General Secretary Xi or oppose him, the key is that you cannot prevent others from speaking, nor can you damage others' property. Alright, the 'demon general' is still on the scene—he is, of course, Xi Jinping. After he finishes this ceremony, on the path to his hotel, we might see more conflicts between those who support the CCP and those who oppose it. Okay, now it is the ceremony for Xi Jinping and Trump. Regarding this ceremony, I apologize to everyone; our live stream has been continuously delayed because it was originally scheduled to arrive at 1:00 PM local time, with the broadcast starting around 1:30 PM. However, we see that this timeframe has been pushed back by nearly two hours. After this, there should be some on-site ceremony or speeches. If there are speeches, I will provide real-time translation for you; if there is a ceremony, we will watch it together. After the program, once this phase concludes, we will invite Mr. Cai Shenkun to join us to analyze and discuss everything surrounding Xi Jinping's visit to the United States these past few days—we will discuss whatever is interesting.
If any sudden events occur on the 'demon cult' side, we will cut the camera over there. I'm not sure if everyone can hear clearly; that was likely a U.S. military jet flying overhead just now. Seeing Trump's reaction was quite interesting. Now they seem to be continuing to say a few words, though we still can't hear what they are saying. But look at the background; this is quite interesting because in the back, Peng Liyuan and First Lady Melania are talking. As far as I know, Melania doesn't know how to speak Chinese and likely cannot speak it. However, I don't know if Peng Liyuan can speak English. I wonder if any viewers have the skills to read lips and can see what language Peng Liyuan is speaking. But both sides do seem to be able to converse, with some back and forth. So, do you think Peng Liyuan is speaking English, or are they communicating in some other language? Write it in the comments section. Let's look at the comments. Thanks to flashflexpro for becoming our observer.
So, viewers, if you like the U.S. trending topics, the 'demon general's' program, and our China-U.S. comparison mission, and want to support us more, you can join our membership. We already have many people who have joined, so thank you, thank you to all the viewers who have supported us all along. This 'Bao Tule' is asking if there was a problem with Chairman Xi's plane. This is likely just a scheduling issue, as I have been observing some of Trump's previous actions. Before this, he did something—not a press conference, but a small media briefing—so I know this was likely on their schedule, so it shouldn't be that the plane had some temporary issue. It is possible, however, that the entire schedule was pushed back. Before the program started, I saw everyone discussing whether there was something wrong with Xi Jinping's plane. Roseman said YouTube is flooded with this. Well, of course, this is Chairman Xi's visit to the United States, which is a major event that Chinese people all over the world are paying close attention to.
I don't know how much of these scenes the Chinese population in China can see. But of course, this is a rather special situation because, generally, viewers in China can only see the videos packaged for them by the CCP's state media. So, for the real, unedited live stream of Xi Jinping, it is very difficult for domestic Chinese to see. Someone said 'watch the steamed bun (Xi) make a fool of himself.' Indeed, regarding whether Xi Jinping has other embarrassing moments, everyone might only see a small fraction. If he mispronounces characters during a speech, those parts will be edited out. Someone said there are no police maintaining order on the scene. That is the airport; I don't know which scene you are referring to. If it is the 'demon general's' footage, I saw some police on the scene maintaining order at the time. At the airport, of course, there are many military personnel present, and others are kept very far away, so there shouldn't be such a great need for police to maintain order. Alright. Someone on the internet said the quality of both the protesters and the supporters is very low. Perhaps this netizen is referring to them cursing at each other.
However, in essence, I must point out the difference between the two sides. On one hand, there is a group of people speaking out and raising their voices for freedom of speech and for the rights and human rights of all Chinese people. Sometimes, emotions might run a bit high, which is understandable. Sometimes you really just can't control it. On the other hand, let's look at where these supporters of the CCP come from. Some may truly support them from the heart, but in our American hot-topic program this week, we have seen that certain CCP organizations, their consulates, and their hometown associations are all recruiting people, saying that if you come to welcome the General Secretary, they will give you a boxed lunch or pay you, offering something like 100 or 200 US dollars a day. These people are speaking out for the CCP, and the CCP stands for suppressing the Chinese people, denying them the most basic right to speak, as well as other political rights. So, when both sides are trading insults, you have to look at where their foundation comes from. One side supports freedom and rights for all Chinese people, while the other side is speaking out for those who suppress the Chinese people.
Therefore, basically, I cannot agree with what Savenoncle said about the quality of both speakers and supporters being very low. After all, one group of people is speaking out for the rights of everyone. Saying that the enemy must be eliminated rather than negotiated with—in this situation, elimination is not an option. In the current environment, you can only achieve certain actions through negotiation. Zhang Zhike was talking about China-US relations. As for how Chinese people themselves can solve their own problems, there are, of course, different ways to resolve them. Alright, thank you all for your comments. Well, I see there don't seem to be many interesting scenes on site right now. So, I will broadcast for you some footage of the anti-CCP protesters and the China Democracy Party team from this morning, showing how they prepared to welcome the General Secretary and what the process was like afterward, including some rather amusing moments. At the same time, I will also keep an eye on the scene for you, because right now Xi Jinping and Trump should be heading either to a ceremony location or back to where they are staying tonight.
Xi Jinping will return to his hotel. In this situation, Yao Jiang might give us a live broadcast later, so let's wait for that. Alright, speaking of which, let's take a look at some videos discovered earlier among those welcoming Xi Jinping and those opposing him. First, let's look at this—the warriors in Washington, DC, who are now called the 'New Sitong Bridge' warriors by protesters, carrying forward that spirit. Let's see what they did. These people are holding a black banner; what is written on that banner? They might display it now, but we will have another angle of the video to show you later. Alright, this video doesn't have it, let's look at the next one. Wait a moment. It's possible I didn't play this video for you, so here it is: 'Strike, boycott classes, remove the dictatorial national traitor Xi Jinping.' If you, the audience, watched our program during the pandemic, during the final White Paper Movement against the zero-COVID policy, or watched overseas media, you would know that 'Strike, boycott classes, remove the dictatorial national traitor Xi Jinping' was the famous slogan of Peng Zaizhou. At the time, it was precisely these slogans from Peng Zaizhou that helped all Chinese people protest against Xi Jinping's zero-COVID policy, eventually leading to the end of the zero-COVID policy.
Okay, let's leave this here. Alright, the next video is a bit more explosive. Because in the Chinese context, under any circumstances, officials or people in power—or sometimes even big business owners—might have police blocking the way when they go out. You might not even see the terrible clowns behind the scenes. However, in the United States, of course, there will be people who know where these leaders are going. And in the U.S., the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has no way to suppress these people, no way to have these police officers ensure the scene is completely secure in advance. So, this should be the CCP's international trade representative, trade negotiator Li Chenggang, and his team arriving. He was spotted by these protesters. So, this is the scene where anti-CCP protesters greeted him upon his arrival. This is the first clip, let's take a look. I saw a protester give him the middle finger, but one of the people inside the car also gave a middle finger back. Of course, this middle finger didn't look very traditional; it was only half-extended. Let's keep watching. This is another vehicle, likely one of the cars from Li Chenggang's team. Let's put this here and keep watching. So, this should be after these trade negotiators entered the building, and some anti-CCP protesters arrived at the scene to hold a protest. Let's take a look, let's keep watching, a close-up shot. Let's interrupt this video for a moment, because we just received new information from Yao Jiang on the scene. It seems Yao Jiang was standing at one intersection, but this military base has four entrances, so Xi Jinping did not take the route where Yao Jiang was. So, let's quickly connect to see what the latest news is from Yao Jiang at the scene. Alright, please wait a moment. Now you can see that although it's very crowded, it is said that Xi Jinping's motorcade did not take this route and has already left. So, unfortunately, we didn't get to see President Xi today, but it's understandable because you know this road is very, very narrow. I can imagine that if he had taken this route, the protesters on both sides—the Trump supporters and the Xi Jinping supporters—would definitely have rushed into the street, so it would have been very, very difficult to maintain security here. Just now, when a helicopter passed by, someone had already warned us that he had likely already left through another exit. The president's arrangements are indeed a bit mysterious, as there are four exits and we didn't know which one he would take, so we ended up missing him. But it's still very lively here. I'm not sure if the people on the scene know that President Xi has already left. We might have some communication difficulties because the noise level at Yao Jiang's location is very high, so it's possible he can't hear what I'm saying. The situation on both sides should basically be over because he has already left, and everyone is starting to pack up their things.
Well, it certainly seems the most exciting part was the clip from earlier where the pro-CCP supporters broke the coffin. Of course, we might not have encountered them today because no one knew which way the General Secretary would go. But naturally, at some of the events tomorrow, there won't be as much mystery about where he's coming from, because everyone will be in the same place. Oh, that's good. So, you... I'm sorry, look, everyone has already withdrawn because it's confirmed that Xi Jinping has left. Now, whether they are holding red flags or anti-CCP protest signs, the protesters are basically all leaving. It's a great pity that they didn't see the main target of their welcome or protest. OK, thanks to Yao Jiang for the live reporting from the scene. Although it's a bit of a pity today that we didn't see the General Secretary's motorcade and the reactions from the anti-CCP protesters and the pro-CCP supporters, that's OK, no problem. We can continue to observe some developments at the scene tomorrow. Alright, thanks to Yao Jiang. If anything else happens later, you can give us a call, otherwise, thank you for your hard work. Alright, thanks, bye-bye. Alright, bye-bye.
Alright, let's stop here for a moment. I'll show you some videos that Xiaozhou ARK filmed on-site. These were taken before Xi Jinping got off the plane. Let me see if I can find them; please bear with me for a second. Okay, let me play them for you. This is a video from before Xiaozhou ARK arrived on-site. It is indeed more grand—I don't know if 'grand' is the right word, but the scene is definitely larger. You can see many police officers maintaining order, and there is music playing. I'll turn the volume down so we don't run into any copyright issues. It does look like the pro-China groups are larger and have better organizational capabilities. I remember a few days ago we received news that for this event, the CCP and its supporting organizations spent a total of about 500,000 USD. However, among the anti-CCP groups, Xiaozhou ARK conducted some interviews and found that many of these people actually paid their own way. There was also a funny moment where Xiaozhou ARK noticed that when these pro-CCP supporters were resting, there were boxed lunches placed next to them. We know that 'collecting a boxed lunch' (ling hefan) is a famous meme in China, and in this situation, it literally became a reality—there were actual boxed lunches on-site. Let's take a look at some of the footage Xiaozhou ARK filmed.
OK, so although we see many people on-site holding Chinese flags, the loudest sound we hear is the chant of 'Xi Jinping step down.' You might not be able to hear it, but the person on-site said that Xi Jinping might be leaving from another exit. What Xiaozhou ARK said sounds logical because this exit is very narrow. He also mentioned that someone else had already seen a video of the motorcade leaving from another direction. OK, no problem. That's about it for the videos sent by Xiaozhou ARK regarding the protesters and supporters on-site. If there are any other missed videos, our team will definitely send them to me later. Now, let's look at the scenes at the protest site before Xi Jinping arrived. Xi Jinping is now heading back to his hotel. This should be outside the area where he is staying. In this scene, we also see many people welcoming the General Secretary. OK, so I didn't see too many people on-site; perhaps part of the reason is that he hadn't arrived yet.
Alright, let's continue. This is a scene Xiaozhou ARK filmed while driving on-site. Okay, we should have more footage. This group you see is quite young; one of the people on-site looks like an international student. In previous episodes of the US RSO program, we saw evidence of some student associations in the US recruiting students within their own groups. I forget the specific name, but it was a Chinese school in the US. So, we can see that the event on-site was indeed quite elaborate. At the end of the program, I'll see if I should play the video of Xiaozhou ARK going to the site this morning. You might be interested in seeing it. This is the journey Xiaozhou ARK took to Capitol Hill this morning, and he conducted some interviews with members of the Democracy Party of China and other anti-CCP individuals on-site. Let's take a quick look. Xiaozhou ARK is taking the train again, this time to DC. This is a train station in New York that was newly built during the pandemic; there are so many people even at night. I experienced what a morning rush hour is like today. Going to these big cities like DC... the station looks quite different and has a sense of history. DC really requires you to have good legs; it's so far to walk anywhere. I actually just came out of the train station and saw Capitol Hill from afar. It felt very close, but the walk here was just like this.
Hello everyone, Yaoyao Jiang has arrived in Washington D.C. today. Since a major international drama is about to unfold here, how could I miss it? We came here today to welcome Xi Jinping's visit to the United States. Surely, this must have made the place bustling with traffic and the public cheering and enveloped in the excitement of his arrival. But is that really the case? Today, early in the morning near Capitol Hill, we saw many protesters gathered here. They are holding banners and slogans, and it can be said that they have come from all over the United States—from Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and of course, the largest number from New York. Let's listen together to what their demands actually are. Where did you come from in the U.S., and why did you come to participate? We came from Los Angeles. We are here today to protest against the world's biggest devil, the villain Xi Jinping, who is visiting the United States. We are here specifically to protest against Xi Jinping, to tell him to get back to China, and to let the Communist Party step down. Why do you hate him so much? I hate him so much, the whole world hates him, it's not just me. Can you share some personal reasons? He is the biggest devil in the world, he is a dictator. In China, the common people are already living in complete misery. Now, whether it's the corruption in China or various other issues, the common people are already living in misery.
Where did you live in China before? I was in Hunan. Do you have any specific stories of being oppressed, or any personal cases you can share? Share them. We actually face all kinds of oppression in China. For example, the way the government treats us common people, whether it's traffic accidents or other forms of oppression, they all exist. Especially the police, their oppression of us is in every aspect. For example, if we encounter a traffic accident, they force us to follow their requirements on how to handle it, saying how much compensation I must pay, and that's it. There is no law to speak of, so it is extremely dark and oppressive. What is your surname? You hope... look, these are all 'very important people' suddenly filing in here amidst the protests. Is this a tour group, or staff from Capitol Hill? They walked right past without even noticing. So, you are one of the organizers of this event, and you just flew in from Los Angeles with all these bags to prepare for the protest, right? I came from New York. You came from New York. Do you plan to go to Andrews Air Force Base or protest on the road today? Yes, we will. Will it be in the afternoon? Is there any specific schedule? Currently, there is no specific decision, but anyway, we follow the dictatorial traitor Xi Jinping; wherever he goes, we protest. What YouTube programs do you usually watch? I usually watch Zhang Cailiang and Fang Wei. When did you come to the United States? And the Old Beijing Tea House. I think the best ones are the U.S. social commentary ones, and that... thank you for the encouragement, thank you for the encouragement. Anything else? The ones on the website, that Old Man Ao's, and Gongzi Shen's are also quite good. Who is Gongzi Shen? Oh, Gongzi Shen. Are you a fan of his? And Mayor Lu's is also... anyway, it's still a bit lacking. Still a bit lacking? Yes, it's just not as professional as yours. Oh, you have such great taste, such great taste! Hahaha. It's that one, what's it called... anyway, his two are considered the top tier. You are overpraising us in your program. That is a fact, I am telling the truth. I haven't watched yours yet, but when I go back, I will definitely subscribe. And please promote us more. Huawei... that was also very well said just now. Oh, I watched every episode of what we just posted yesterday. Actually, I wait for it every day. Look, everyone is picking up their phones right now to subscribe. You don't need to be a member, just subscribe. We have to... we have to... but flying from San Francisco costs a lot of money, including airfare and lodging. For one person, it's... those merchants are expensive. Look, they spent 3 million USD to deal with that villain Xi Jinping. Look, this matter shouldn't need 3 million USD. You guys stand over here, stand up. Wait, this area... the congressmen are recruiting here, move forward a bit. I feel like there are twenty or thirty people at the scene. They are now facing Capitol Hill. Just now, I also saw a group of Tibetans and Uyghurs. They are also gathered here, but basically, because they are different organizations holding activities, they each have different gathering points. Today, this is a small protest being held at the triangle plaza in front of Capitol Hill at 12:00 noon. I came here early this morning and saw many old men and women taking pictures in front of Capitol Hill, but I guess they might not be with them, so I didn't go over for now. I can go take a look later.
Alright, let's leave the visual part here for now. Next, let's look at a few interviews with Christians who were on the scene, as well as interviews with individuals from organizations opposing Xi Jinping. Let's listen to why these people are motivated to oppose Xi Jinping and hear their personal stories. Since Xi Jinping is visiting the U.S. this time, we took this opportunity to come to Washington to 'welcome' him. How are we welcoming him? We want to tell the world that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is the largest terrorist group and the greatest enemy of humanity. The crimes against humanity committed by the CCP are too numerous to count. As overseas Chinese, especially Christians who have been drawn to God, we feel we should have a sense of public justice, be brave enough to face evil, provoke evil, and fight against evil. Many people in our Christian Public Welfare Alliance have suffered persecution. My own persecution was relatively minor because I was one of the small leaders of the 1989 student movement. I was a master's student at the China Pharmaceutical University at the time, and I led our graduate students to the streets. In the end, when I graduated in 1990, I had no job and was given a disciplinary action. So, compared to others who have been persecuted, mine is considered very light. However, there are indeed many people here who have suffered a great deal of persecution and hardship; many have had their families destroyed. We can ask Sister Jin to speak; her case is also quite special. Let her tell you about it. 'I am Jin Yuehua from Shanghai. My house was forcibly demolished by this bandit government in 2000, and they robbed me of everything. So I petitioned in China for 17 years. The Chinese government fed me poison and gave me toxic injections in my detention center, leaving me with no choice but to flee to the United States. After arriving in the U.S., I did not give up on rights defense, nor did I give up on accusing this authoritarian state. Why? Because my family was forced into ruin, and they forced me to the point where three lives were lost. So, after I arrived in the U.S., just yesterday, my son was taken away by 17 police officers in 4 police cars from the Huaping Police Station in the Minhang District of Shanghai around 4:00 PM while he was going downstairs. We are in the U.S. now, so they only released him yesterday evening after 4:00 PM, having detained him for 24 hours. Yes, because they are in China, they are now using him as a hostage, holding him in China and not letting him leave.' 'I am from Yichang, Hubei, China. Because of the 1989 student movement, they sentenced me to eight years for the crime of counter-revolutionary incitement. I spent seven years in prison. When I was released, they hung me up and beat me. They truly have done every evil thing imaginable; their crimes are too numerous to count. My family's experience fully illustrates this. My father was a loyal cadre of the CCP, but because of me, his 'counter-revolutionary' son, he was later purged and treated very miserably by them. During the Cultural Revolution, my father was also dragged out and struggled against. Then, because of me, his 'counter-revolutionary' son in 1989, the government stripped him of all his rights. He didn't even have money for medical treatment. The same happened to my older brother; he was also driven to a dead end by them and eventually died miserably on his sickbed.'
What you just saw were some real people and real events. Of course, many people watching these scenes might not know the underlying motivations. At the very least, for those hired by the CCP to support the CCP and welcome Xi Jinping, we know their motivation: they were given funds and other benefits. However, these anti-CCP protesters each seem to have their own stories, especially the last gentleman. He has truly suffered so much, yet he came out to speak up. These people are truly brave, because we know many people are actually focused on their own interests. If you come to the United States, perhaps the most important thing is that your life is good and you have already escaped this oppression. But some people, even though they have escaped the countries that oppressed them, still return to try to help those who are still being oppressed in their own countries, spending their time doing this kind of volunteer work. I think it is truly very, very brave and very noble. Why are there more people supporting the CCP on the scene than anti-CCP protesters? It is because the anti-CCP protesters, as we see in Yao Jiang's on-site interviews, are paying for their own travel and expenses. Some flew here from New York, some from Los Angeles, and others from different parts of the United States. But for those organized in China to welcome him, their airfare is reimbursed, so it is completely different. Alright, let's continue to look at some scenes Yao Jiang filmed this morning, as well as some videos sent to us by protesters on the scene. Let's see how they can survive in such an environment. Last night I received news from my family, my account was not... I am now... I can't say it. Alright, let's interrupt for a moment, Yao Jiang has made a video call to us, perhaps there is some news from the scene, let's see what he is saying. Hello Yao Jiang, can you see me? I have already returned from the airport to the vicinity of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, and there is another protest here now to welcome President Xi. Let me see if I can adjust the camera to the front. OK, great. He should have already entered the hotel, but there are still many people outside protesting. Which organization do you represent? The Democracy Party of China. The Democracy Party of China, can you hear me? Yes, I can hear you. He said the Democracy Party of China. Did you see him enter the hotel just now? No. Xi Jinping is a fucking idiot, Xi Jinping is a fucking idiot, Xi Jinping is a fucking idiot, Xi Jinping is a fucking idiot. I sent a video earlier, there is a video of people already eating boxed lunches, I don't know if you received it. Actually, many people supporting him have already started eating boxed lunches at the hotel entrance. In fact, he has already gone in.
Hello, did you see Xi Jinping's vehicle enter just now? I didn't see it. You arrived after he had already gone in, right? Possibly, he might have taken another route. It seems the road everyone blocked was wrong this time. It seems the road everyone blocked was diverted by the opposing side, like a 'luring the tiger away from the mountain' tactic, right? It is because Xi Jinping has quite a lot of schemes. Although he is a fucking idiot when it comes to governing the country, he is not lacking in schemes and power-grabbing tactics. With all his brainpower, he has spent over seventy years studying these things. His governance is just flipping pancakes, leading a pack of wolf-warrior pinkies, driving in reverse with his foot on the gas, the number one fucking idiot Xi Jinping. Let me state my name, my name is Yuan Zhe, Yuan from Yuan Shikai, Zhe from philosophy. I am from Tianjin, China. I am a member of the Democracy Party of China. I have been participating in the Democracy Party of China since 2015, so I have been a member for over ten years. The Chinese Communist Party is a very evil organization that has caused over 100 million unnatural deaths worldwide. In China alone, over 80 million people have lost their lives because of the Communist Party. So today, we want to protest against Xi Jinping, and... Xi Jinping, let the bastard be finished. He is in this hotel now, Xi Jinping should have checked into the hotel tonight.
Wow, the shouting on the scene is very loud. Do you think Xi Jinping can hear these voices? The police are telling them to leave, telling them not to stay here. There are still people jogging inside, so they might see him again. They are actually all guessing where he is now. The police drove them away. The police said he cannot walk there, but someone actually jogged in just now. An American was jogging for exercise at night and ran in, so they thought this road was accessible, but the police immediately stopped them and said they couldn't come in. It's very confusing, because although there is an iron railing placed here, it is clearly one that people can easily enter. The security is not that strict. Hey, look, the guy who was jogging at night ran out again, probably driven out. Alright, the police have noticed this loophole now and have completely sealed it. This is the American security loophole, a one-meter security loophole that almost let us in. Now hurry, hurry, hurry and close it. That guy was just jogging, exercising at night and ran in. Look how serious this problem is. The police came in large numbers. And today, oh, look, the American police are good friends. He said he wants to be on camera, so let's give him a chance to be on camera. Alright, he asked if you are staying for the night?
I didn't stay overnight, but there was an eight-hour shift, so they haven't been rotated out every eight hours. These people are all wearing what appear to be police uniforms, and then he said, I don't even know where the new agricultural soldiers live, and then there's us, they don't know anything, anyway, but I think, look at how many more police officers have suddenly appeared at this entrance, and everyone knows it. Ah, there are some American media and reporters here, hi where are you from? yes i live in annapolis maryland, oh you come here to report this, resistance center or resistance center, I hope there are many Chinese and American friends who love America, love freedom, they resist the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) system and Xi Jinping, so I came to support them, but I am also adjusting the event, I am adjusting the event about the country and the nation of the United States, she said I am supporting some of my Chinese friends, because many of my Chinese friends like freedom, they don't like the CCP, so I came to support them, what kind of interaction do you think there is between supporting the CCP and opposing the CCP, will there be any conflict?
There is a difference, love your history, love your country and your culture, and then you go to another country, and integrate into the society of the new country, but the problem is that the United States has a different administrative approach, you can't say you came to the United States at the same time, but still support China, if that's the case, you have no way to integrate into the United States, support the CCP, I oppose communism, because they keep saying, I want everyone to be treated fairly, but this will never happen, under communism, what we see is a small group of very wealthy people, a small group of very wealthy people, they will become rich, but if you talk about the millions of people in China, they have very, very few human rights, and they themselves have no way to support their own families, so under this system in China, they have enslaved the masses, so we look at communism, who could come up with such an administrative system, the United States would absolutely not have such a system, but some anti-CCP individuals, they feel that the United States does not understand social communism, they will say that the United States has many poor people, so many of these Chinese people feel that the CCP and communism will make more people happy, that is because they don't understand, you see when your economy reaches a level where you can't even support yourself, your system, he said, many CCP members, and many CCP people will come to the United States and spread their ideas, this is the way the CCP infiltrates other societies, so young people need to be a little careful, I think I actually didn't expect to see quite a few Americans interested in this matter at today's event, they are also filming at the protest site, and they will also express their own thoughts, like the American I saw on the highway to the air force base just now, he took a photo with the protesters here, and also expressed support for the protesters, and the lady just now, she also came specifically to do this live stream, I actually found this quite surprising, I feel like many Americans just walk by and miss this, they are now going to take a group photo to see.
Quan Jian Tiao Sha, Quan Jian Tiao Sha, Quan Jian Tiao Sha. The police are here again, the police are here again, he said you can't do this, get up, get up, but actually these police officers are quite nice, they weren't particularly forceful, they let people finish shouting their slogans before coming over to stop them, indeed you can't stand in the middle of the road, but it was also very, very optimized, that loophole just now, look, they have implemented double protection, and now they have tied up a yellow bag, making it completely impossible for them to walk in. This guy is still running, well, exercise first, health first, he is now asking the police if he can go over and run, he actually went over, no, no, he is walking this way, just now they were actually supposed to go inside this iron gate, he was originally going to go inside this iron gate, um I see. Oh, this is for delivering boxed meals, oh delivering boxed meals, this should be from another organization, they usually prepare some boxed meals for their protesters, I just sent you a video, saying that they were sitting in a row on the hotel steps, and eating boxed meals there, are these boxed meals for those protesting against the CCP or supporting the CCP?
I think they are supporters. The protesters don't have such good conditions; they generally don't bring anything with them, yet they are still there working on it so late. And you might have noticed just now that the protesters usually shout with their own voices—they might have a loudspeaker to help, but they are using their own throats. But the supporters, they don't even shout; they just play recordings. It's all recordings like 'I love the motherland' and so on. They don't even open their mouths, and they all stand there wearing masks. But I was still surprised—those few who were fighting today, they were actually quite brave. Those who were fighting, and I even felt they looked like elderly people, yet they were very brave. They were kicking that coffin; I don't know if you saw that scene. I was quite surprised because those two people carrying the coffin really didn't take any precautions. They set the coffin down—it was a prop they had prepared—and those two came up and started kicking it, you know? And I feel they were quite old, but they were still, how should I put it, so... I originally understood that those supporters were basically just 'ni-ni-ni' (mumbling), just standing there, you know, collecting their boxed meals; they had no fighting spirit, they wouldn't even shout. But those two were indeed very brave. Yes, yes, keep watching. The police, the police are coming to stop me again. They are asking me to stand aside because I am standing in the middle of the road. They suppose this street is still supposed to be open to traffic. Oh, I see. Then be careful and stay safe.
Wow, look at these people. I think they are also on the supporting side. I feel, yeah, look, they are all holding boxed meals, carrying boxed meals. And over here, these are the opposing side. It looks like the event is already ending, wrapping up. Yes, because they have already moved in, and once they move in, basically... Oh, look, there are two foreigners here, Americans. Oh, excuse me, Americans holding their phones, listening to the protesters' voices. I think they really care. They feel this is a matter that doesn't concern them, but look, they should be commuters who just got off work on their bicycles. But I feel they can't understand Chinese at all, yet they are still listening with great interest. The million Hong Kongers' anti-extradition movement, at the end of that same year, the CCP virus spread everywhere. The Emperor personally directed it. In 2003, one person, two genders, ten thousand people under lockdown. The common people were in chaos, trade was cut off. The people could not bear it and held up blank sheets of paper to express their dissent. Since he took power, he has built chips, protected the real estate market, and claimed to have eradicated poverty—all slogans and policies that have ended in a mess. A century of strikes, the Xiong'an New Area, a thousand miles of investment, turned into a ghost city. The Belt and Road Initiative set debt traps, pitting itself against the international community. He pursued wolf-warrior diplomacy, causing countries to trample and exclude them. He used the path of national rejuvenation to ignite countless Little Pinks. His absurd actions have made people think. Under the tightening of stability maintenance and various forms of censorship, a civilization of thousands of years can hardly form a coherent sentence without using Pinyin abbreviations. Using the power of the whole nation to gag the mouths of the masses, his achievements will go down in history as a unique disaster. This is governing a country like a three-legged cauldron, commanding a wolf-warrior Pink army, a Chief Accelerator driving in reverse. Long live the Emperor, thank you.
Alright, alright, students, step down. China is called the so-called quietest country in the world, but when children go missing, they are never found. He speaks Chinese. They all came from mainland China, and have been here in the US for a year or several years. He says he wants to live to be 150 years old in this century, so he harvests the organs of Chinese children to transplant into their own bodies. What happened tomorrow? This American speaks Chinese; he is quite interested in this matter and has been asking them where everyone is going. That should be the place with the highest clarity. That probably can't be helped, he's already been there. Tomorrow he should go to that 'Freedom Saga' place or something. Ah, I don't know, I have to go home, get on the bus, and figure out which car to take. I used to live in China. How is your impression of China? I especially like China. You like China, Chinese people? I also especially like China. I especially discovered the Communist Party. You have reached a consensus. Then what do you think of the Communist Party? That's hard to say. Then why did you finally choose to leave China? Well, I didn't tell him. Alright, didn't see, bye-bye, thank you for your hard work. Did you hear what he said? He said he is from the Netherlands in Europe, and he lived in China for ten years. He likes China very much. His Chinese is quite good, so I was surprised just now that he listened to the opposition for so long over there and even recorded it. He really still has some feelings for China, that's why... and he probably will come tomorrow, he will come tomorrow. He made an appointment with the opposition to meet again tomorrow.
Well, okay, I am... what I mean is, just now, regarding the political stance of the person I asked, it's not very convenient to talk about it. It seems I don't see any supporters' groups right now. Maybe they are in another location, eating or drinking. The key is that I actually really wanted to interview them, because it was a bit noisy over there and I was afraid I wouldn't be able to hear, but now I can't find them here. This side is full of protesters; there are no supporters. We are from the Chinese Democracy and Human Rights Alliance, OK. Hello, down with the CCP, down with the CCP, down with the CCP, down with the CCP, down with the CCP. Where are you from? We are from the YouTube channel 'US-China Benchmarking' (Meizhong Duibiao). We can follow you. We are people who escaped from the mainland. We must not let the head of the CCP's secret agents, who is also the most dictatorial Xi Jinping, come smoothly and leave smoothly. We want to tell him that the Chinese people will not forgive his crimes. He is running state organs in China, turning them into state-owned businesses. He has locked up millions of ethnic minorities in China, keeping them in a very large 'old group' (concentration camp) for a long time. They call it 'vocational education concentration camps' or 'job training camps.' They are purely deceiving people. So, we people came here to make our voices heard: Down with the Communist Party, Xi Jinping step down.
Did you see where the groups supporting him are? They dispersed. After they got paid, they dispersed. There are still people... I just wanted to ask them to say a few words. Which side are you on? You can tell by the clothes you're wearing. I didn't look at the clothes inside, so I just... We are 'US-China Benchmarking,' a YouTube channel. 'US-China Benchmarking,' I remember, it seems you interviewed people who 'ran' (fled China). People who 'ran' to the US. It seems there was an episode. You should try it, we will follow you. In a moment, a group of people will follow you. Someone is already handing me a phone, asking us to follow. Let me see. Thank you for inviting us to pull in many audience members at the scene. We have tracked some people who 'ran' to the US on our 'US Hot Search' program before. Maybe that's what this friend is talking about. Tomorrow at 10 o'clock at the White House, or across the street, or a bit further down, there will probably be a demonstration of several hundred people. And tomorrow, look, a few more people joined. Look, you have to follow. I also have a channel, you can follow it too. What's it called? 'US-China Benchmarking.' Yes, on 'US-China Benchmarking,' let's follow each other. It seems they have some activities tomorrow too. They all say tomorrow is the main event, tomorrow is the main one, it should be mainly over at the White House. Oh, okay. Oh, that's my channel. Oh, okay, okay. Good, I know now. Laughing... Okay, thank you. Sister Mei, do you want to say a few words? That... I forgot again. 'US-China Benchmarking,' is it 'US-China Benchmarking'? It's 'US-China,' Chinese Democracy and Human Rights Alliance, Southern California Branch Chairman, He Xinqiang. OK, go ahead. You won't forget, right? I'll just say it, right? Yes, just say it. We came here to Washington today to protest Xi Jinping's visit to the US. Xi Jinping is the biggest dictator. We hope that the CCP will stop persecuting Christians, stop persecuting Falun Gong, and stop persecuting religion, and let political dissidents allow China to truly achieve freedom and democracy. The human rights situation in China is currently very terrible. China should learn from the United States. The US Declaration of Independence clearly points out that all men are created equal, and the Creator has endowed them with the rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. But in China, people, Christians, cannot read the Bible; if they read the Bible, they get arrested. Falun Gong practitioners are also arrested, persecuted, and so on. Such things are very contrary to reason. So everything the Communist Party does is against the tide of history. Therefore, our demand today is very clear: let China truly achieve real freedom and democracy. Xi Jinping step down, the Communist Party step down. The Communist Party cannot represent the people. A political party, as the US Declaration of Independence clearly points out, if it cannot truly represent the people, then it should be overthrown by the people. So, the Communist Party is currently persecuting the people, oppressing the people, and controlling the people. This is not the party the people truly need. China needs freedom and democracy. The people need ballots. The people should elect a party and governing group that can represent the interests of the people. Communist Party step down, Communist Party step down. The Communist Party and Communism will surely disappear from the historical stage. The Communist Party is not a legitimate government. From the founding in '49 to now, it has relied on deception and fraud to come to power. It deceived Western countries at the time, saying it wanted to build a democratic country like the United States. It deceived a large number of intellectuals in mainland China at the time, controlled the media, and that's how it usurped power. They are truly a group of criminals who don't know shame and are guilty of subverting state power. From '49 to now, they have only done two things: one is to prevent the common people from rebelling. So I think it is not a... we must question its legitimate right to govern. It is not a legitimate government. Now it has never done anything for the benefit of the people; it only serves itself. So now the common people have the right to overthrow them, and the CCP, and the CCP.
Can I say a few words? I hope everyone will pay attention to us Chinese living in exile overseas. Please pay attention to the "People's Republic of China Democratic Unity Promotion Law" from July 1st. This is essentially long-arm jurisdiction, aimed at crushing all overseas pro-democracy activists. There is also the regulation that just came into effect on September 15th. These laws and regulations pose a significant threat to us compatriots overseas and to those of us here together. I hope everyone can pay attention to this, thank you. Oh, there's more over there. Sorry, I need to follow them. I don't know where they went. Okay, many people have their own stories and reasons, and they are very eager to speak out. I don't know how long they plan to stay tonight, because I originally thought they would disperse after the motorcade arrived, but I didn't expect them to still be here. Look, there's another group ahead, let me go see what that is. Yes, okay, it's hard work for Yao Jianglai to keep running around with them like this, because it must be around 7 or 8 PM Eastern Time. Hard work, everyone. If you like this kind of street reporting, interviewing on the spot, please trouble yourself to click a like, and help us share our video. Everyone, please click the little red heart, click the little red heart. We are here in DC in person, asking questions in person, conducting interviews in person. There are Chinese people everywhere, there are quite a few Chinese people here now. Look at this restaurant today, it seems to be a Vietnamese noodle restaurant, quite crowded. But I guess it's not easy to film inside this restaurant, so forget it. I see the Chinese Democratic Party across the street again, but I can't find any sign of the Little Pinks; they seem to have disappeared all of a sudden. If it were like this, one could go to the Vietnamese shop, get a boxed meal, and pretend to be delivering it. They usually receive their boxed meals outside, sitting on the steps outside the hotel. I can show everyone that scene; I sent it to you earlier, I don't know if you can find it. Oh, found it, they are just sitting in a row. When Yao Jianglai is walking on the street, I'll show everyone this scene of the pro-CCP team eating their boxed meals. Look, they are all sitting there eating. May I ask if you are willing to say a few words? You are here to support Xi Jinping coming to the US, right? Oh, not speaking? That's fine, no problem. I just happened to run into two Chinese people who won't speak. Generally speaking, there are many supporters, but they are unwilling to speak, while there are very few opponents, but they are particularly eager to speak, so our reporting might seem very unfair. But honestly, we really want to find one or two supporters who are willing to speak. Look, like these few elderly people who are about to get on the bus, and you can tell by the hats they are wearing, because they wear these pink or light blue hats, which should be uniformly distributed. They are generally supporters. And look, they are holding these red things, whether they are national flags or slogans, you know they are supporters. But they usually don't—they are not sure about the channel or something, so they generally won't speak, won't speak rashly, but they are clearly supporters. So it's a bit frustrating. Actually, I really, sincerely want to hear their voices, because you know, we have interviewed them before, like during China's National Day or Mid-Autumn Festival, those Chinese overseas who are very supportive of China and very patriotic on the streets of New York. We really want to hear their voices, but I don't know why, it seems they are usually quite active in groups, but in these individual situations—look, just these two or three people standing here—if you ask them, they usually won't accept an interview. So it's a pity that it's very hard for us to know what they are really thinking, or if they have their own ideas, like why they are so supportive and excited about Xi Jinping's arrival. They can talk about it, right? I think this is a free and open country. Whether you like it or not, as long as it comes from your heart, or even if it doesn't come from your heart, you can still talk about it, right? You've already come out, haven't you? But it's hard. I don't know why it's so difficult for them to open up. Really, it's possible that some people might discuss it, but you really have to find them. There are still some taboos about speaking in public.
Hey, hello. Are you... that's on your channel, Voice of America, wow, look at my America team. Hey, hello, hello. It's too, too, too small. We ran into another one of our fans. They just rode up on a motorcycle on this street. Is it okay to show your face? Oh, you can't show your face? If you don't want to show your face, I can talk to you off-camera. Did you come to DC specifically for this? Do you want to be on camera or not? Because we haven't gotten our green cards yet, so no face. Because we haven't gotten our green cards yet. Many people who haven't gotten green cards really want to be on camera, but you guys actually don't want to. I respect your opinion. Did you come here specifically to welcome them? Was it specifically to welcome them or specifically to protest? To protest. Do you belong to any political party? Or not? We don't. We haven't gotten our green cards yet, so talking about the CCP Central Committee now doesn't really have much meaning. When we get our green cards and US passports, then like you, we can choose to speak freely, whether supporting the Democratic Party or the Republican Party. I was at Capitol Hill today, and after the protest, you left. And there was another time, I saw you did a program, following them all the way from South America. That wasn't me, that wasn't me, you're mistaken. It must have been your... maybe not. I saw it, right, it was your colleague. He had a hard time too. I saw on the screen that there were gangsters following them, and he didn't dare to follow them either. It's just that the people they were interviewing were too close, and then they waited for them at the next stop, and then... You guys, how did you come to the US? We came by plane. You came by plane normally? You didn't suffer that ordeal? He's a bit luckier, he got a visa. Many people only come after getting the black clothes, so there are many things we don't really talk about, don't really understand.
Let's see, what are you doing? I see you're talking. Right, we're actually just randomly on the street. If we see supporters or protesters, we let them chat for a bit. I definitely support America, and we also support freedom and democracy. Did you suffer any injustice in China at the beginning? Or is it just... just came down? Whatever you feel comfortable with. You go ahead. Actually, talking about this isn't important, nothing is important. Because like this public, its whole thing is not about a problem for an individual, the problem is just an extension of the individual. But more importantly, it has caused great destruction to the whole world. People don't dare to speak out, don't dare to talk. Even 1.4 billion people, now maybe you could say 1.4 billion people, letting 1.4 billion people's speech be trapped, including people's thoughts being trapped, which leads to the whole 1.4 billion people just purely wasting time. So I say, you ask me about this faction, the answer is that it's not just about me as an individual, it's a huge obstacle for the entire human civilization moving forward. If only we could take these 1.4 billion people, or many of the surrounding ones, because I've been to many countries, surrounding ones like Laos, I've been there too, their communication is also restricted, people's thoughts are also restricted. Therefore, my point is, it's not about the individual, but about having a huge impact on the whole world, making the pace of the world moving forward... maybe you know too little about America, Europe, Japan, and these countries, because we humans need to cooperate together. And if more people join, it will enable human civilization to move forward more quickly. Alright, thank you. OK, good. Will you be at the rally there tomorrow? You'll be there too, right? OK. Coming all the way from New York like you guys, it's all self-funded, right? Right, we're all self-funded, we haven't received anything from anyone, so people should understand a lot. I need to take a call here, sorry. Qi Xiaotian, let's leave it at that for now, I have an important call to take. OK. Thank you, Yao Jiang.
Right, Yao Jiang is on the street. We work so hard doing these street interviews. Just now, while the interview was going on, I showed everyone a scene of the pro-CCP group, after protesting, after supporting, receiving their boxed lunches, and eating their boxed lunches. Let's take a look, look at everyone sitting there. However, as Yao Jiang said just now, indeed, although there are fewer people resisting the CCP than those supporting it, each of them dares to speak out and wants to tell their own story. But for this group of supporters, that is, these people receiving and eating boxed lunches, no one really wants to come out and say a few words, whether it's genuine support for the CCP or some other thoughts, but no one came out to speak. Thank you, audience friends, what do you think of this phenomenon? You can write it in the comment section. Everyone can also guess, seeing so many pro-CCP people today, and these people welcoming them, if you calculate it, how much money would it ultimately cost? How much money do these overseas CCP institutions need to spend to hire so many people? This is a relatively big question, everyone can guess in the comment section. Alright, I see the audience friends are chatting very enthusiastically today, thanks to all the audience friends for watching today's program, thanks to the 645 people currently watching our program, and there are many people commenting here. Alright, my live stream has been going on for almost two hours.
Well, I think Dixon2088's point that they are just doing it for the money is the best explanation. So these people, those who support the CCP's counter-protests, they've finished the job and taken the money, and that's that. Indeed, there might not be a better explanation. However, we should look at the fact that this morning, when Yao Jiang went to see the protesters and the resistance activists face-to-face, those who came out to attack and actually took action were mostly older individuals. This might point to a phenomenon: because they are older, they might have been Red Guards or people who participated in the Cultural Revolution when they were young. Therefore, those people received a purer form of brainwashing. Back then, they were like a group of Little Pinks who truly felt the sensation of being superior to others, so they might be more willing to stand up and speak for the CCP. Then there are those who didn't necessarily receive money—some people might truly benefit more from the CCP, so they come out to support the CCP; this is genuine, these people might sincerely support the CCP. Whereas if you look at the other side, those who are resisting the CCP, every single one of them has a story, every single one of them has a very good reason, and they are very, very willing to come out. Just like that couple, the people riding the motorcycles, even without green cards and having some concerns about their political status and whether they can stay in the United States, they still dared to come down and share what was on their minds. So I think it is quite commendable and shows a certain level of courage. However, for any viewers, if you are in the United States and haven't received a green card yet, and perhaps are afraid to speak out because of that, in fact, in the United States, regardless of whether you have a green card, as long as you are on U.S. soil, you are protected by the right to free speech. So for the viewers who were just interviewed, you don't need to worry about anything happening to you because of free speech. The United States has some regulations regarding speech, meaning you cannot endanger others, you cannot verbally threaten the lives of others, or the lives of others—freedom of speech does not include, for example, shouting "fire" in a movie theater, because that would cause panic and potentially a stampede where people could get hurt, so in certain situations, it is not allowed. However, expressing your political stance, whether you can say things in the U.S. that oppose the CCP, or even support it, is all completely okay.
