I watched Li Ao's Cultural Journey to China delivered at Peking University, Tsinghua University, and Fudan University on Phoenix Satellite TV.

The speech at Peking University was the highest-profile and the most exciting one, and the next two games felt really worse than the last.

But speaking, Master Li Ao is indeed a person worthy of admiration. There may be many aspects that think he is an arrogant person, but admiration for a person is often not the whole thing, but certain points.

First, persistence. After writing more than a hundred books, 96 were banned, but I still have to keep writing. The characteristic is that his readers are that because books are banned, many of his books can only be sold together with pornographic books and periodicals in small stalls. As he spoke, he took out a few books, and the cover was surprisingly full of colorful and white naked women.

Second, direct. When talking about the evaluation of Peking University, he directly said "bad". He didn't pay attention to the green or white faces of the president and director of Peking University who were sitting together on the stage. He also asked them from time to time, but never smiled. God, can they still laugh?

Third, be straightforward. Wherever you say it, it goes. When you want to quote classics, the examples given are very untouchable in the eyes of the so-called literati. For example, when talking about freedom of speech, when comparing the example of sexual liberation in a certain country, it is said that after sexual liberation, the number of rape cases dropped by more than 60% and the number of voyeuristic cases dropped by more than 80%. haha.

Fourth, be blunt. At that time, Japan was prepared to pay Taiwan comfort women 500,000 Taiwan dollars each as compensation, but asked them to sign to express their agreement and understanding. Li Ao stood up and donated 500,000 yuan per person to ask them not to want Japanese money. This is not to preach what Li Ao is doing, but I just admire his view of doing this: Taiwan comfort women really need money. It would be cruel to just shout slogans and ask them to give up the money morally. After seeing too much patriotism on the slogan, how many people care about the lives of comfort women? His approach is really admirable.

There are also some opinions that are worth listening to. It can be seen that the government is indeed aware of the people's thirst for freedom of speech and has made much progress in this regard. At the very least, we are still allowed to express many opinions and ideas freely.

However, unfortunately, not enough has been done. Such a wonderful speech can only be seen on Phoenix Satellite TV in a roundabout way.
