Suddenly, the Chinese entertainment circle was purged. “Inferior artists” such as Zhao Wei, Zheng Shuang, and Huo Zun were investigated and cleared. The well-known director and music producer Gao Xiaosong has also been rumored that all his works will be removed from the shelves of the entire network, suspected to be due to a series of inappropriate comments by Gao Xiaosong.
The Cyberspace Administration of the CPC issued the “Notice on Further Strengthening the Control of Chaos in the ‘Fan Circles'” on August 27. In addition, the Internet reported that the State Administration of Radio and Television of China listed in the August 25 document of bad artists, including Huo Zun, Wu Yifan, Zheng Shuang, Zhao Wei, Fan Bingbing, etc., requesting all online and offline programs to investigate and clean up the works of “bad artists”.
Currently, Zhao Wei, Zheng Shuang, and Huo Zunchao have been banned, Zheng Shuang’s name has been banned on related video sites, and her works have been removed from the shelves. Many films and television works starring Zhao Wei should not be taken off the shelves, and her name has been removed from the cast.
On August 26, there was another news from the Internet that a certain platform staff stated that they had received notice that Gao Xiaosong’s related works would be removed from the shelves. At present, on the iQiyi platform, the in-platform link of “Xiao Song Qi Tan” has not been searched.
According to the data, Gao Xiaosong was born in a Chinese family of senior intellectuals. His mother is Zhang Kequn, a professor of architecture at Tsinghua University, and his father is Gao Liren, a professor of architecture at Tsinghua University. His grandfather Zhang Wei was the first president of Shenzhen University, and his grandmother Lu Shijia was one of the founders of Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Gao Xiaosong is also quite outstanding himself. He is a composer, lyricist, music producer, director, writer, and talk show host. He is well-known in Mainland China for his outstanding talents and learning.
However, Gao Xiaosong has repeatedly made inappropriate remarks and visited the Yasukuni Shrine in Japan. He also defended the Japanese war criminals inside: “Of course they can be commemorated. These people are relatives. ‘I went in to pay tribute to my grandfather and my father. Yes. He died for the country, and he is not a war criminal.'”
For this reason, the official Weibo “Torch Torch” of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences has fiercely criticized Gao Xiaosong for reversing black and white and confusing right and wrong for defending Japanese war criminals, but there was no splash at the time. This time when Gao Xiaosong was banned, many Chinese Internet users said that “it should have been like this long ago.” Source
