【新唐人2012年2月8日讯】在大陆争议不断的“唱红”表演团,在重庆市委书记薄熙来大力主导下,变成由政府主导的群众运动,向全国蔓延,最近又将它推向香港。“唱红歌”被外界批评是极左路线复辟,也有人质疑薄熙来是想透过这些“出位”举动,在今年的中共十八大中能晋身中央政治局常委。
在大陆备受诟病的红歌,重庆方面声称要“原汁原味”的把重庆唱红展示给香港观众,2月6号,大陆重庆13支队伍、500多人的“唱红”表演团,到达香港举行3天的表演。
“唱红”在大陆总是让人联想起文化大革命与愚民教育。时事评论员刘锐绍表示,随着民智上升,红歌的政治动员力和号召能力今非昔比,现在最多只有怀旧和历史的研究价值。
那么,香港民众的反应如何?
在演出地点之一的理工大学,几位大学生向《新唐人》表示,重庆唱红团有对香港民众洗脑的嫌疑。
香港理工大学学生一:“我Fell(感觉)到它会做这样事情,可能是歪曲了艺术,可能用来做政治用途的宣传工具,这样就不好。”
香港理工大学学生二:“如果在这里听到了,都是大学生,有知识背景,可能本身有自己的立场,所以没有这么容易被其他人影响,但其实也不排除洗脑的成分,如果让我自己(选择)我不会主动去听。”
这位理工大学女学生也表示,不会去看。因为他不主张共产党主义。
香港理工大学学生三:“因为,我不想被人控制思想和看法,我想有自己的自由,想怎么做都行,要不每天灌输你,现在人长大了,也知道如何分真假对错。”
另一名来港的大陆民众也表示,他对红歌并不了解。
大陆民众:“没有兴趣,也没了解过嘛,对它的背景不了解,再说也过了有兴趣的这个年龄。”
香港民间电台——《青台》台长林子健也表示,绝大部分香港人跟红歌没有感情,他认为中共已经虚弱到需要藉由红歌,来强化对香港民众的洗脑。
香港青台电台台长林子健:“我觉得是强迫我们很多年轻人、学术界那些人,去帮他们充场面。我不觉得那些去听的人有很多很多的感情!我们香港跟那些红军的历史,有什么关系呢?红军、红歌的东西,只是它共产党自己的历史,那种手段就是洗脑,用那种方法去渗透,意识形态的改变,我觉得不会成功。”
2007年重庆市委书记薄熙来主政重庆后,开始在当地大力推广“唱红歌”,并经常藉由各种活动在全中国举行“唱红”,有人质疑,他借机出位的举动是另有政治盘算。

CCP-Led Red-Song Singing Pushed Into Hong Kong
The controversial Red-song Singing performance was
pushed into Hong Kong, recently.
The Red-song performance was launched by Bo Xilai,
the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Secretary of Chongqing.
As a CCP-led mass movement, the Red-Song singing keeps
expanding across China, under Bo’s vigorous promotion.
Outside critics view the Red-Song movement as a revival
of the ultra-left movement.
Bo was also questioned over his intention of entering
CCP Politburo Standing Committee at the upcoming 18th congress.
Chongqing’s official Red-Song Singing campaign
is expanding into Hong Kong,
On Feb. 6, over 500 members in 13 teams arrived in Hong Kong,
and were scheduled to hold three-days of performances there.
The Chinese always associate the Cultural Revolution and
blockhead education with the Red-song Singing campaign.
Commentator, Liu Ruishao says, with more people’s awakening,
the political mobilization of red songs is not what it once was.
The red songs at most have the value of nostalgia and
can be used in historical research.
So what is the reaction of Hong Kong’s people ?
At Hong Kong Polytechnic University, one of the venues of
Red-Song Singing, several students have expressed their views.
Chongqing Red-song Singing Group is suspected to have the
purpose of being purely for brainwashing Hong Kong’s people, they think.
Student at Hong Kong Polytechnic Univ.: “I feel that
it must be the CCP that is doing this thing.
Such a performance may be a form of art distortion, or more
likely it’s being used as political propaganda. That’s no good."
A female student from Hong Kong Polytechnic Univ., says:
" If it]s held here, it’ll not be easy to influence we college students.
As we are all knowledgeable,
and have our own points of view.
I don’t rule out the possibility that it has the purpose of
brainwashing people, so I won’t proactively to listen to it."
The female student adds that she will not attend the
Red-Song performance, as she discourages Communism.
Hong Kong Polytechnic University student says: “Because
I don’t want others to control my mind.
I want to keep my own freedom, rather than be brainwashed.
I’ve grown up now;
I’m able to distinguish between true and false,
right and wrong."
A mainland Chinese who travels to Hong Kong says he does
not know much about Red-Songs.
Mainland Chinese: “I’m not interested in it, and have never
taken any interest in it.
What’s more, I’m older than the age group that would be
interested in it."
Howard Lam, Director of GreenRadio, Citizens’ Radio in Hong Kong,
says that the vast majority of Hong Kong people dislike Red Songs.
The CCP is so feeble that it has to rely on the singing of Red Songs
to fortify the brainwashing of Hong Kong’s people, Howard thinks.
Howard Lam says: “I think it forces many youth and
academic people here to be a token audience.
I don’t think that the attendees will have any feelings for it!
What do we in Hong Kong have to do with the Red Army’s history?
Red Army, Red Song, such stuff is only the CCP’s own history.
This is just a technique for brainwashing,
the CCP is using this way to penetrate into people’s minds,
to change people’s ideology.
I don’t think it’ll bear fruit."
Since 2007 when Bo Xilai ran Chongqing, he has
vigorously promoted the Red-Song Singing movement locally.
Bo has launched Red-Song singing across China
on many occasions.
Bo’s motive has incurred speculation that he wants
to publicize himself with an eye on his own political promotion.
