Character story

Fu Ying's father, Amin, was a student of Ai Siqi, a famous Mongolian philosopher. He was once the Vice Minister of Propaganda Department of Inner Mongolia Military Region of new China. Influenced by her father's teaching and family atmosphere, Fu Ying has loved reading since she was a child. Her interest in reading has trained her meticulous logic and independent thinking ability. After the beginning of the "Cultural Revolution", her father was unjustly jailed, and Fu Ying's reading time was also broken. At the age of 16, she went to the countryside to work in a radio station of a production and Construction Corps in Inner Mongolia. Recalling these years, Fu Ying said: "it was a very hard experience, but not all of them were unpleasant. Going to the mountains and the countryside for exercise enables me to bear hardships and be resolute. I can do things regardless of gains and losses and dare to contribute. " In the past three years, she traveled all over the Corps, painstakingly climbing telegraph poles and setting up screens, showing movies to her comrades in arms. At the same time, she insisted on self-study and completed the study of various subjects in high school. In 1973, Fu Ying was admitted to Beijing Institute of foreign languages as a student of workers, peasants and soldiers. She got full marks in mathematics and was nicknamed "mathematician" by her classmates. It is this spirit of "mathematician" that inspires her to make unremitting efforts to improve her professional skills. Her major is English, her second foreign language is French, but Fu Ying seems not enough, in order to meet the needs of the work, she learned Romanian.

After the Tibet riots in 2008, the Beijing Olympic torch relay was blocked in the UK. Fu Ying, as Chinese ambassador to the UK, wrote an article in the Daily Telegraph of the UK, condemning the "violence" of the protestors who tried to seize the torch and criticizing the western media for trying to "demonize" China. At the same time, she also warned that "the gap between China and the west is growing"; while China is not We need to be patient and wait for the world to understand.

Fu Ying is a genuine Mongolian, always showing the tenacity and wisdom of the Mongolian. After entering the Ministry of foreign affairs, Fu Ying rarely has a chance to go home, but no matter where she goes, she takes the habit of Mongolian people with her. In some grand occasions, we can often see her wearing national costume, solemn, but also a special charm. In 2004, Fu Ying became China's ambassador to Australia. When asked about her eating habits, she said, "I like to drink milk tea, so I bring brick tea from China and make milk tea on weekends." In addition to like milk tea, Fu Ying also likes to listen to Mongolian long tune. On diplomatic occasions, she never has to worry about giving gifts, because the CD of Mongolian songs is her "gift giving patent".

On March 4, 2016, the press conference of the fourth session of the 12th National People's Congress was held in the press release hall on the first floor of the Great Hall of the people. Fu Ying, spokesman of the Congress, answered questions from Chinese and foreign journalists on the agenda of the Congress and the work of the NPC.

If the west can listen to China

On the morning of April 6, 2008, looking at the snowflakes flying all over the window, I couldn't help thinking: what will happen to the London section of the Beijing Olympic torch today?

About eight hours later, when the 80th torchbearer, Holmes, a famous British middle distance runner, ran up the Millennium Dome stage with the Xiangyun torch in his hand and lit the cauldron, more than 4000 spectators were jubilant.

This day will be remembered as a collision between Beijing and London, which is full of sparks and agitation. China is the first developing country to host the Olympic Games, while Britain is the first western country to welcome the torch.

On the bus back to the airport, the young women of BOCOG, including former Olympic champion Joe, firmly believed that the whole British were against them. A girl said, "where is the country that raised Shakespeare and Dickens! "Said the other," where is the gentlemanly manner of the English? "It took me a long time to try to convince them, but I knew from their wet eyes that I didn't.

I fully understand their views. They spent the whole day shuttling back and forth among the vehicles, taking care of the torchbearers. Their noses were red and their hands were cold. They only slept for three hours the night before. Some of them just ate sandwiches left over from lunch. What's worse, they have to go through repeated acts of violence to rush for the torch along the way.

And I was very lucky to sit in the back of the car and have the opportunity to see tens of thousands of Londoners coming to welcome the torch in the wind and snow. There are old people waving and actors performing in the wind and snow.

As night falls, watching the Olympic charter plane slowly slide onto the runway, I can't help thinking, is the plane getting heavier? The difficult journey of the Beijing Olympic torch relay will enable the 1.3 billion Chinese people to better understand the world and the world to better understand China.

A young friend watched the BBC broadcast of the torch relay in London. He wrote to me that at the moment, there are mixed feelings, sadness, anger and confusion. Like him, many people may realize that China's integration into the world does not depend on sincerity. The wall between China and the world is too thick.

In 2008, the most popular scenes among China's 200 million netizens were not only attempts to grab the torch, but also some touching scenes. For example, during the torch relay in Paris, Jin Jing, a young and frail Chinese disabled athlete in a wheelchair, tightly protected the torch with her hands and body, making it impossible for the thugs to rush for the torch. Chinese netizens are also particularly angry at the so-called "suppression" of some western media's attacks on China by means of graft and fake photos from other countries over a period of time.

On the other side of the wall, it's totally different. People like me, who live between China and the west, can't help but be deeply worried about the downward trend of public impression between China and Western countries in two different directions.

I can't help asking: why can the general and random criticism of some media be accepted by the western public without any consideration when it comes to issues concerning China? Why does no one question? What are the specific issues involved in such criticism and what is the exact situation? Why can some reports, including figures, be published in the news without any factual basis?

Many of those who protested and demonstrated loudly may have never seen Tibet. For the Chinese people, Tibet is a favorite hot spot, and there is plenty of information about Tibet. Four million tourists visit Tibet every year. In the past five years, the income of Tibetan farmers and herdsmen has increased by 83.3%. In 2006, there were more than 1000 schools in Tibet with more than 500000 students. There are more than 1780 places for religious activities in Tibet, one for every 1600 people on average, which is higher than the proportion of one church for every 3125 people in England. On the complex issue of religious involvement in politics, division is unacceptable. One basic fact is that the people have no worries about food and clothing, and their living conditions are constantly improving. Solving the problem of food and clothing is exactly the policy goal pursued by successive Chinese governments for centuries. Tibet has its own natural characteristics. It will not be fully industrialized like the eastern cities, but it will continue to make progress in a way that meets its own conditions, just like other parts of China.

I have personally experienced the gradual expansion of China's opening-up process, and I have always been
