Preamble:
In this era of information pouring in, everyone is making gold in the sea of the Internet, and there is such a "tide maker" in the media industry, his name may not be unfamiliar to you and me - Hu Xijin, a figure who can always step on the crest of public opinion.
Today, let's talk about Hu Xijin's things and see how he became the focus of attention in the sound of keyboard tapping.
Hu Xijin: The "old gun" of the media industry
Hu Xijin, a veteran player in the media industry, is not a small role.
He holds the golden microphone of the editor-in-chief of the Global Times, and his years of experience in the media have made him a good hand in domestic and international news critics.
His pen has not only a keen insight into the international situation, but also a passion for China's development.
From major international events to people's livelihood hotspots, Hu Xijin's brushstrokes can always hit the point, like a sharp knife, cutting through complex appearances and pointing to the core.
His style of speech can be said to be a wonderful combination of "straight man with advanced cancer" and "warm uncle".
On the one hand, he dares to speak out, even in the face of controversy, he does not flinch, that sharpness, like a basin of cold water in winter, makes people sober; On the other hand, he has no lack of delicate emotional expressions, deep affection for the country and the nation, warm and stern like an old father.
This kind of Hu Xijin is a mixture of love and hate, but no matter what, you can't ignore his existence.
Background of the event: "Regulars" on the hot search
Recently, Hu Xijin has once again stood on the cusp of public opinion, and this is not the first time he has "touched the net".
The previous time, it may have been because his comments on an international hot event were like a depth charge, blowing up all kinds of sounds; And this time, perhaps it was his unique insight into social phenomena in an interview that once again stirred the public's nerves.
Every time, he can accurately step on the pulse of social emotions, making the topic soar in popularity, comparable to a thermometer in summer.
The public opinion environment behind this is like an unpredictable sea, and the wind vane of social media can set off monstrous waves with a slight turn.
Weibo, WeChat circle of friends, every forward, like, and comment is the force that drives this wave.
Hu Xijin's remarks were scrutinized and interpreted by countless pairs of eyes in such turbulent waves.
Analysis of Speeches: From "Words Like a Sword" to "A Gentle Knife"
For the first time, Hu Xijin may have used a "hardcore" attitude, direct and sharp, like a swordsman, pointing his sword in all directions, ruthlessly exposing the essence of the problem.
Every word he said was like a well-polished blade, sharp and sharp.
The second time, he may have changed his tone, using more gentle and rational language, trying to find consensus in the fierce discussion, just like an old Chinese medicine doctor who uses the method of warmth and tonic to regulate the "lesions" of society.
In contrast, you will find that no matter how the form changes, Hu Xijin has always adhered to his own position and viewpoint, and his pursuit of truth and love for the country have never changed.
He is like a magnet that attracts those who agree with it on the positive side, and naturally attracts criticism on the negative side.
Reaction from all sides: a "hodgepodge" that is difficult to reconcile
On the Internet, Hu Xijin's remarks can be described as "a thousand Hamlets in the hearts of a thousand people".
Some people applauded, thinking that he dared to tell the truth and was the conscience of the times; Others scoffed at his remarks as too radical or conservative.
Experts and scholars are not idle, their analysis is varied, some from a sociological point of view, some from a political point of view, but in the final analysis, they are all trying to find a reasonable explanation for this storm of public opinion.
The focus of controversy often revolves around the authenticity and reasonableness of the remarks and the impact behind them.
These discussions, like seasonings in the kitchen, are full of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty, making this feast of public opinion more colorful.
Data speaks: the thermometer of public opinion
Through the magic of big data, we can see the trajectory of Hu Xijin's remarks on the Internet, the number of likes, comments, and retweets, and behind every number is a fresh attitude.
These data are like thermometers, measuring the heat of public sentiment.
Interestingly, they often reveal a phenomenon: the more controversial the statement, the more widely circulated and hot.
This seems to have become a law of the Internet age.
Case reference: The stones of other mountains can be used to attack jade
Looking back on history, it is not difficult to find that the remarks and turmoil of many public figures have a similar trajectory.
From Trump's Twitter governance abroad to the frequent "golden sentences" of other well-known figures at home, every incident is a concentrated release of public sentiment.
These cases, like a mirror, allow us to see the multifaceted nature of public opinion, and also remind us to learn to discern the direction and remain rational when navigating the ocean of information.
Far-reaching: The "butterfly effect" of public opinion
Hu Xijin's frequent "touching the net" hot topics are really not a small fight after dinner, they are more like the local chicken at the head of the village who loves to flutter blindly, and when they go down with their wings, they provoke the chickens in the whole village to follow suit, and the result is not only dusty, but also a "farmer's gathering" about social psychology and public opinion.
This has come and gone, and we ordinary people have begun to be picky about what the media says, not only to be "colorful, fragrant", but also to be really "green and pollution-free".
On the other hand, these days, the mobile phone is swiped, and the information jumps into the eyes as if it doesn't want money, and Mr. Hu's hot searches are like throwing a stone in the ocean of information, rippling in circles, reminding us: brains, don't become a racetrack for other people's thoughts.
You have to have your own boat, so that you don't get dazzled by the waves of public opinion, and sail steadily to the other side of the truth.
These things have taught us that whether we are eating melons or watching onlookers, we have to hold the hoe called "independent thinking" tightly in our hands, and we have to weed and fertilize the crops in our own fields, so that we can harvest a basket full of insights in the field of information.
Epilogue:
Every "hot search trip" of Hu Xijin is a deep insight into the public opinion field of this era.
In the flood of information, each of us is both a spectator and a participant.
Learning to maintain oneself and speak out rationally is perhaps the greatest lesson we can draw from this incident.
After all, in this magnificent ocean of information, being able to ride the wind and waves without losing a sense of direction is the real master.
