China’s Communist Party to Review Journalists’ Work Performance and Past Statements
Chinese media reporters who publish information and statements on the Internet will be included in the annual assessment, and those who supposedly fail will not pass the “annual verification” and thus lose their status as journalists.
On Tuesday (19), the Communist Party of China’s State Press and Publication Administration issued a notice on the verification of journalist cards for 2020, requiring news organizations to conduct annual verification of journalists’ cards from Jan. 20 to March 19 this year. The scope of the verification specified in the above Notice includes press cards of newspapers, news periodicals, radio stations, television stations, news and film studios, news websites, county media centers and other news organizations. In addition to verifying whether the journalist complies with the legal permit, whether “compliance with the law”, more importantly, “the reporter’s position to open microblogging, WeChat and other self-media, unauthorized release of information on official behavior and other issues are included in the focus of the verification of the press card.”

Radio Free Asia reported that Wang Liang, a Beijing-based media personality, said that many media reporters are dissatisfied with the news they cannot publish in the media, so they publish it in their personal microblogs, WeChat and other self-media, a move by the authorities that cuts off the channels for media reporters to publish information: “Controlling the speech of journalists, many journalists can’t post what they want in the media, so they post it through microblogs and WeChat. This is the need to control the speech. Because after all, journalists in this society belong to the profession of having the right to speak relatively more than ordinary people, he (official) on the one hand not only strictly control the professional speech of journalists, and even the private speech of journalists should also be strictly controlled.”
Guangzhou dissident Wang Aizhong believes that this new measure by the authorities is nothing more than a continued tightening of control over speech: “This is obviously an extension of the control over the press. In the past, the control was mainly on the news media, and there was no control on the self-published media run by individual journalists. Then they (journalists) can put some information through the self-media release, and now he extended to the press practitioners private self-media release area. I’m afraid this will be more severe for the future information blockade.”

New African swine fever breaks out again in China Reuters: fake vaccine triggers mutation alt=
As the Communist Party virus outbreak continues to heat up across China, 2 new strains of African swine fever virus, have emerged in Chinese pig farms. Industry sources revealed that the mutation of the virus was likely caused by an illegal cottage vaccine.
Reuters UK reported on the 21st that the African swine fever epidemic remains serious, with two new strains of African swine fever infecting more than 1,000 sows and fattening meat pigs at several farms of China’s fourth largest pork producer, New Hope Liuhe.
This new strain of African swine fever was missing both the “MGF360” and “CD2v” genes compared to the wild mainstream strain, and the disappearance of these two genes, like the failed vaccine previously developed by Chinese laboratories, alarmed New Hope Liuhe’s scientists and Beijing Veterinary Laboratory, who rushed to inform their higher authorities.
Yan Zhichun, chief scientific officer of New Hope Six, said that the exact source of the mutant strain is not yet known, but that the outbreak came from some genetically modified virus.
While the mutant strains identified so far are missing one or two key genes present in the native African swine fever virus and will not be as deadly as the swine fever viruses that swept China in 2018 and 2019, they can cause chronic disease, which reduces the number of healthy piglets and allows for an increase in premature piglet deaths.
Many Chinese pig farmers use unapproved vaccine products in an effort to prevent African swine fever, but experts warn that illegal vaccines can cause accidental infections in farmed pigs that are spreading, industry insiders and experts say.
Informed netizens disclosed that at the beginning of the outbreak in Wangkui County, Suihua City, Heilongjiang Province, on Jan. 13-14, all villagers in 2 tunnels in Huizi Town, where the epidemic was severe, were pulled away and quarantined, and all livestock were slaughtered and buried deeply. The whole area of Wangkui County is currently adjusted to a high-risk area.

Experts believe that this virus strain is definitely artificial and not a natural mutation.

Mainland China’s egg prices jump 80 percent, price hikes cause national anxiety
alt=
Near the New Year, the price of meat such as pigs, cattle and sheep in mainland China has been rising, and the price of meat continues to go up, causing consumers to complain that “the devil king of cattle, sheep noble princess, and strong pigs are coming! Unexpectedly, vegetable and egg prices have also followed in the footsteps of the price hike, especially eggs as a meat substitute, egg prices have soared by nearly 80 percent, soaring prices for people’s livelihoods and causing national anxiety.
The Farmer’s Daily reports that a catty of eggs in Zhengzhou used to cost RMB 3 or 4 yuan, but now they are sold for 6 or 7 yuan, causing consumers to rush to buy eggs and causing a vicious cycle of soaring egg prices. A Dafu supermarket in Luoyang City, Henan Province, simply posted a notice saying, “Don’t grab eggs, give the chickens some Time, it’s not easy for them either!
Industry analysts predict that as the New Year approaches, coupled with the obstruction of transportation and logistics due to the epidemic, egg prices will continue to rise in the future and should not fall anytime soon.
The mystery of “Princess Huawei” Yao Anna’s nationality, it turns out she is an American?
alt=
The column of “The Wind in Our Ears” on Radio Free Asia says that the “Princess of Huawei”, Ren Zhengfei’s youngest daughter Yao Anna, has recently burst into the entertainment industry, and her nationality and background have become a hot topic among Chinese netizens. Earlier, some netizens found that although Yao Anna told Sina Entertainment that she had a “Chinese Passport, Chinese hukou and Chinese ID card”, some mainland media reported immediately afterwards that her acceptance letter to Harvard was written as “American nationality”, raising questions about whether she was a “dual citizen”.
Recently, Mary Hui, a reporter for Quartz, also posted on social media platforms, saying that Yao’s birthplace is Kunming, but she’s originally from Hong Kong on her profile on Harvard Ballet; more bizarrely, when introducing Yao in 2018, the relevant webpage said she was “born in Hong Kong”, raising questions about her desire to use Hong Kong as a cover to wash her “red background”.

While the nationality of “Princess Huawei” is a hot issue, the Party media has recently been vigorously criticizing the British National (Overseas) Passport, and Leung Chun-ying has also advocated “banning dual nationality”, but rumors of “dual nationality” keep coming out from the second generation of officials and the second generation of rich people, giving people the impression that the red nobles all hold the attitude of “anti-American is work, stay in America is Life“.
Surrogacy in the U.S. / New game for Chinese power elite to choose eggs like beauty pageant chartered plane to pick up children
The picture shows: most of the checked luggage is milk powder and diapers.
Recently, Chinese actress Zheng Shuang rushed into the hot search because of the exposure of surrogacy. The media reports that egg selection is like beauty pageants, finding multiple surrogate mothers to have multiple children, and chartering planes to pick up surrogate babies back in China. The fertility industry chain has become a new game for Chinese power elites and celebrities to show off their power and wealth, and Southern California has become a haven for providing these services.
World Journal reports that rumors of Chinese celebrities coming to the U.S. for surrogacy have been circulating in the Chinese community, including a Chinese international movie queen’s second child being conceived in Southern California and a plastic surgery actress giving birth to a baby by a surrogate, but due to industry confidentiality agreements and legal requirements, no solid proof could be obtained.
Lawyer Liu Longzhu said that the powerful class in China superstitiously believes in the saying of more children, some of them will choose multiple surrogates to have multiple children. The first step is to select the right eggs and then find a surrogate mother to breed them. The process of selecting eggs is like a beauty pageant, selecting height, weight, Education, and athletic skills. Some will require the egg provider to have a PhD degree or be a gymnast. They also have high requirements for the surrogate mother, who is expected to have given birth once, and will ask about her background, age and education.
Lisa Wang, who is in the surrogacy egg donor industry, said that sperm is generally available in the form of sperm banks, with stock available. Eggs are also readily available, but most of the eggs are fresh and are selected by the customer before the egg retrieval procedure. Many people in China who want to buy eggs prefer Asian, especially Chinese eggs, and the main donors of Chinese eggs are currently in Taiwan, where egg donation is legal. Usually the guest chooses a suitable egg provider on the computer and then covers the other person’s food, lodging and airfare to the US for egg retrieval. The full process of egg retrieval takes several weeks, and the cost of purchasing the eggs, excluding the cost of the procedure, is around 30,000 RMB for the egg provider and the agency services and legal fees respectively. In contrast, egg donation is illegal in mainland China.
After the surrogate mother has given birth, those gorgeous Parents-to-be choose to charter a plane to pick up their child back in China. Karena, a charter operator, said baby charters have become a new trend in recent years. There was once a scene of a charter flight with baby carriages occupying the aisles, six or seven babies on board, and several boxes of milk powder diapers in all the checked luggage.
Most of the checked baggage was milk powder and diapers.
The picture shows that after the surrogate mother’s birth is completed, those luxury parents-to-be will choose to charter a plane to pick up their children back to China.
