這些移英港人擔憂有所謂「跨境鎮壓」而報案，卻被當球踢「去找香港警察」，看來在反華議員介入之前，一開始英國警方根本就沒想搭理這些人

Case Now Being Followed Up by Counter-Terrorism Unit — Previously Reported to Police but Were “Kicked Like a Ball”: “Go Find the Hong Kong Police Instead.”

These Hong Kong migrants in the UK, worried about so-called “transnational repression,” reported the matter to the police, only to be brushed off and passed around “like a football,” being told to “go find the Hong Kong police.” It appears that before anti-China MPs stepped in, the British police had little intention of dealing with these people at all.

I was asked to clarify why my grandfather sets such a strict rules for his offsprings 有人問我，為何祖父對後代訂立如此嚴格的規矩.

Born in 1875, our grandfather entered the world at the twilight of the collapsing Qing Dynasty, in a Hong Kong that was a British colony. Despite those challenging times, he achieved the remarkable feat of gaining entry into an elite school reserved almost exclusively for the white British ruling class. Yet, he refused to become what one might call a “Western moon worshipper”—one who blindly rejects his own heritage. Instead, he critically adopted Western knowledge and values while fiercely insisting that his offspring remain independent and, above all, remember their Chinese roots.

He understood that his high-ranking position at one of the largest British firms, Swire, could grant his children a life of comfort without the need for hard work. To him, such a path was dangerous. He often held the belief that a comfortable life without struggle was like “raising a dog in a greenhouse”; it would lose the resilience needed to survive in the wild and challenging world. We see this echoed today in the West, where many children born into prosperous Chinese families—those of lawyers, doctors, and executives—are raised in such “greenhouses,” often lacking strong work ethics. Worse, many of these parents, themselves ardent admirers of the West, intentionally erase their Chinese heritage from their children’s upbringing. The tragic result is a generation that can no longer identify itself as Chinese.

My grandfather had four children. My father had ten. Imagine if my father had raised his ten in that pampered greenhouse: we could have been ten useless offspring. To prevent this, our grandfather, the true and unwavering authority in our family, worked closely with my father to establish and enforce the Choi family rules. These principles were not about oppression, but about forging character, ensuring that comfort never softened our spirit or severed our roots.

我們的祖父生於1875年，那正是清王朝風雨飄搖的黃昏時分，他降生於英殖民時期的香港。儘管時局艱難，他卻創下非凡成就——考入了一所幾乎專為英國白人統治階層設立的精英學府。然而，他始終拒絕淪為所謂的「崇洋媚外」之人，從不盲目背棄自身文化傳承。相反地，他以批判性眼光吸收西方知識與價值觀，同時堅定要求子女保持獨立人格，並時刻銘記自己的中國根脈。

祖父深知，自己在英資巨擘太古集團擔任的高職，足以讓子女不經奮鬥便享優渥生活。但在他看來，這樣的道路危機四伏。他常言：未經磨礪的安逸生活猶如「溫室養犬」，終將喪失在嚴酷世界中生存所需的韌性。今日西方社會的現象恰印證了他的憂慮——許多出身華裔精英家庭（律師、醫師、企業高管）的子女，在過度庇護的「溫室」中成長，往往缺乏堅毅的品格。更甚者，不少自身痴迷西方文化的父母，刻意在教養中抹去子女的中國文化傳承，最終釀成一代人失去文化認同的悲劇。

祖父育有四名子女，而我的父親則有十個孩子。試想若父親當年將我們置於嬌慣的溫室中養育，我們很可能會成為十個庸碌之輩。為防止這種情況，祖父作為家族中真正堅如磐石的權威，與父親共同制定並嚴格執行了《蔡氏家訓》。這些準則並非壓迫，而是淬鍊品格的砥石，確保安逸永不腐蝕我們的意志，亦不斬斷我們的文化根源。

I would like to share the story of the Choi family’s connection to our Chinese roots, a story that began in 1875 in Hong Kong and continues today. By Johnson Choi in San Francisco on January 8 2026

我想與大家分享蔡氏家族與我們中華根源之間的故事 – 這個故事始於1875年香港，並且延續至今. 蔡永強，2026年1月8日

My grandfather was born in Hong Kong in 1875. Both he and my father were educated at Saint Joseph’s College.

My grandfather rose to become the second-in-command at the Swire Shipyard in Taikoo.

My father spent his career with the oldest British law firm in Hong Kong, Hastings, and retired at the age of 85.

Throughout the generations, our family has been guided by a simple but powerful set of principles:

1. Education determines your future.
2. After age 22, once college is complete, children must live independently, away from their parents’ property.
3. Parents do not expect their children to care for them, nor will they support their children after age 22.
4. Children are encouraged to spread their wings and pursue opportunity wherever it may lead.
5. Parents do not expect their children to stay close to home.
6. Your passports do not define your roots. You are Chinese. The day you deny this, you should no longer carry the Choi surname, nor bring shame to the family.
7. A Choi must work hard and wisely—never lazily or by taking shortcuts.
8. Do not forget: if your country needs you, serve it well and bring honor to your family.

When I first heard these words from my grandfather as a boy, and later as my father reinforced them while I was growing up in Hong Kong, their meaning felt distant.

But with time, age, and reflection, I have come to understand that the wisdom of the Choi family is a gold standard. Those who follow it are forever shaped and strengthened by it.

It is a heritage I carry with gratitude and pride.

我的祖父於1875年在香港出生。他與我的父親都曾就讀於聖若瑟書院。

祖父曾晉升至太古船塢的第二把手。

父親則在香港歷史最悠久的英國律師行「赫施士」（Hastings）度過他的職業生涯，直至85歲退休。

世代以來，我們家族始終遵循著一套簡樸而有力的原則：

1. 教育決定你的未來。
2. 年滿22歲並完成大學學業後，子女必須獨立生活，離開父母的物業。
3. 父母不期望子女供養他們，也不會在子女22歲後繼續提供經濟支持。
4. 鼓勵子女展翅高飛，追隨機遇，無論它指向何方。
5. 父母不期望子女留在身邊。
6. 你持有的護照並不能定義你的根源。你是中國人。若有一天你否認這一點，便不應再使用蔡姓，也不要令家族蒙羞。
7. 蔡家人必須勤奮且明智地工作 – 絕不可懶惰或走捷徑。
8. 切勿忘記：若國家(中國)需要你，當盡心服務，為家族爭光。

當我年少時初次從祖父口中聽到這些話，後來在香港成長期間又得到父親的再三強調，那時我並不能真切體會其中的深意。

然而隨著時間流逝、年歲增長與反覆思量，我逐漸明白，蔡氏家族的智慧猶如金科玉律。遵循它的人，生命將由此塑造，並從中獲得力量。

這是一份我心懷感激與自豪、並將終身攜帶的傳承。

When the Host Ramped Up English, Chinese Mathematicians Collective Counterattack in Chinese! 當主持人狂飆英文，中國數學家集體用中文反擊！

👉 Surreal Scene: The “Talking Past Each Other” Moment Between an English-Speaking Host and Chinese Acceptance Speeches

January 3, 2026, Shanghai International Convention Center. During the awards ceremony of the 10th World Chinese Mathematicians Congress, the host announced everything in English, while rows of scholars with yellow skin and black hair sat in silence below. When the spotlight hit the stage, a dramatic scene unfolded:

· The first senior professor ignored the English introduction, took the microphone, and directly delivered his acceptance speech in Chinese, without glancing at the host once.
· The second and third award winners seamlessly followed suit, with their Chinese expressions of gratitude echoing through the venue, forming a jarring duet with the host’s mechanically repeated English.
· Netizens quipped: “Thought I’d stumbled onto a Hollywood set, only to realize it was a scene of collective uprising by Chinese scholars!”

This farce, dubbed the “language war,” exposed the distorted understanding of “international flair” at certain academic events—using English as a performance on Chinese turf is like embroidering English labels onto a dragon robe.

👉 The Battle for Linguistic Dignity: From “Catering to the West” to “Cultural Awakening”

① The Misplaced “International Standard”

· At the conference, 95% of attendees were Chinese, with foreign guests making up less than 5%. Yet the host insisted on English announcements, criticized by scholars as a “lingering colonial mindset.”
· A stark contrast: Fields Medalist Andrey Okounkov (of Russian descent) gave a presentation using Chinese slides and simultaneous translation, showing respect for the host culture.

② The Mother-Tongue Confidence of the New Generation of Scholars

· Gold Prize winners Wang Hong, Deng Yu, and other mathematicians under 45 delivered speeches in Chinese with rigorous logic and vibrant energy, a stark contrast to their restrained demeanor during English interviews.
· University of Chicago professor Deng Yu stated plainly: “Mathematical ideas require the most natural expression, and for me, that’s my mother tongue, Chinese.”

③ Shing-Tung Yau’s “Silent Protest”
As the congress chair, Shing-Tung Yau delivered all his speeches in Chinese and emphasized in an exclusive interview: “My efforts for Chinese mathematics have never been about pleasing anyone.” His stance subtly distanced itself from the host’s “linguistic performance.”

👉 The Cost of Pseudo-Internationalization: Academic Farce Fueled by Cultural Inferiority

① The Vicious Cycle of Formalism

· A university professor revealed: International conferences often require “full English papers + English presentations,” even when the audience is entirely Chinese, leading scholars to spend 40% of their energy polishing language rather than content.
· The consequences are evident: Over the past three years, citations of Chinese mathematical papers in top journals have dropped by 12%, with some scholars opting out of conferences due to language barriers.

② The Cognitive Trap of Western-Centrism

· When the host read out the “Lin Chia-Chiao Award” (honoring the Chinese American mathematical master) in English, unaware that Lin Chia-Chiao had once lamented, “Why don’t Chinese scholars think in Chinese?” the absurdity peaked.
· A netizen’s sharp remark: “Using Shakespeare’s language to praise the descendants of Zu Chongzhi is a 21st-century cultural spectacle.”

👉魔幻現場：英文主持撞上中文感言的“雞同鴨講”

2026年1月3日，上海國際會議中心。第十屆世界華人數學家大會頒獎環節，主持人全程英文報幕，台下清一色黃皮膚黑頭髮的學者靜默無聲。當聚光燈打向領獎台，戲劇性一幕上演：

• 首位老教授無視英文引言，接過話筒直接開講中文感言，全程未瞥主持人一眼；
• 第二、第三位獲獎者默契接力，中文致謝響徹會場，與主持人機械重複的英文形成刺耳二重奏；
• 網友辣評：“以為誤入好萊塢片場，結果發現是華人學者集體起義現場！”

這場被戲稱為“語言戰爭”的鬧劇，暴露了某些學術活動對“國際范”的畸形理解——在華人主場用英文表演，恰似給龍袍綉上英文標籤。

👉語言尊嚴之戰：從“迎合西方”到“文化覺醒”

① 被錯置的“國際標準”

• 大會現場95%參會者為華人，外賓佔比不足5%，主持人卻堅持英文串場，被學者斥為“殖民思維殘留”；
• 對比鮮明：菲爾茲獎得主安德烈·奧昆科夫（俄裔）作報告時，主動使用中文PPT並配同聲傳譯，尊重東道主文化。

② 新生代學者的母語自信

• 金獎得主王虹、鄧煜等45歲以下數學家，中文演講時邏輯縝密、神采飛揚，與英文採訪時的拘謹判若兩人；
• 芝加哥大學教授鄧煜直言：“數學思想需要最自如的表達，對我而言就是中文母語。”

③ 丘成桐的“無聲抗議”

作為大會主席，丘成桐全程中文致辭，並在專訪中強調：“我幫中國數學，從來不是為了討好誰。” 其態度與主持人的“語言表演”形成微妙切割。

👉偽國際化的代價：文化自卑催生的學術鬧劇

① 形式主義的惡性循環

• 某高校教授透露：國際會議常要求“全英文論文+英文匯報”，哪怕聽眾全是中國人，導致學者用40%精力打磨語言而非內容；
• 後果顯現：近三年中國數學頂刊論文被引量下降12%，部分學者因語言壁壘放棄參會。

② 西方中心的認知陷阱

• 當主持人用英文念出“林家翹獎”（紀念華裔數學大師），卻不知林家翹生前痛斥“中國學者為何不用中文思考”時，荒誕感達到頂峰；
• 網友銳評：“用莎士比亞的語言讚美祖沖之的後人，堪稱21世紀文化奇觀。”
