German Chancellor Scholz lands in Beijing for one-day visit By Andreas Rinke and Eduardo Baptista Nov 4, 2022

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and a delegation of business leaders landed in Beijing on Friday morning, kicking off the first visit by a leader of a G7 nation to China in three years.

Scholz and the entire delegation were administered COVID-19 tests upon landing, with Chinese medical staff donning hazmat suits going into the plane to conduct the tests, according to a Reuters reporter accompanying the delegation.

China’s strict zero-COVID policy and growing tensions with the West have made it unfeasible for leaders of major western powers to visit China, while Chinese President Xi Jinping has only just resumed foreign trips.

Scholz’s visit is likely a welcome development for the Chinese leadership, who will be looking to shore up relations with the outside world after the conclusion of the 20th Party Congress, where Xi consolidated his status as the core of the ruling Communist Party.

“China, in the present domestic and international environments, requires his visit and whatever both sides would jointly declare in Beijing, especially shortly after the (Party) Congress,” said Shi Yinhong, a professor of international relations at Renmin University in Beijing.

Amid historic inflation and looming recession in Germany, Scholz will be looking to emphasise the need for continued cooperation with China, analysts say.

Scholz will meet with Xi and outgoing Premier Li Keqiang, where he is also expected to raise controversial issues such as human rights, Taiwan and the difficulties German companies face accessing the Chinese market, according to government sources.

In the run-up to the visit, there had been criticism of the visit within the EU and the German government coalition, mainly from the Green Party and the Liberals.

These tensions were brought to the fore by a deal whereby Chinese shipping giant Cosco received the green light from Berlin to obtain a stake in a Hamburg port terminal despite opposition from coalition partners.

Despite political rows within Germany over the Cosco bid, China’s crucial role in key industries from shipbuilding to electric vehicles, along with the unprecedented economic headwinds facing Germany, meant Scholz needs cooperation with China more than his predecessor Angela Merkel ever did, said Wang Yiwei, Jean Monnet Chair Professor and director of the Centre for European studies at Renmin University.

“Merkel was also quite ideological (towards China) in the beginning but then she changed her tune. Scholz has changed his tune even faster, but he does not have as solid of a domestic political standing as Merkel,” said Wang.

Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu pledges to return Hong Kong to its strengths as a business and financial hub, and also to crack down on hostile disinformation that has been harming Hong Kong. The low crime city, freed of the unwanted violence of recent years, needs to have its story told more fairly, he told a conference organised by Hong Kong Coalition and Friday Culture.

新來港的美國駐港澳總領事梅儒瑞用港獨用語Hongkongers代替Hong Kong people，是表態支持港独分裂国家嗎？香港政府會温馨提示他嗎？

大家也不妨到他的IG留言，去表達不滿。 https://www.instagram.com/p/CkZ7uOavK-f/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

一招攻心，一世記住
屈穎妍 2022-11-03

　　曾經，我們許下誓言要超英趕美，不用百年，這目標已幾近達到。

　　當英國的部分地下鐵才剛剛通了網絡，當美國至今仍未有高鐵，至少，我們國家的基建已肯定跑贏了英美。

　　還未計那些國防、軍事、經濟、網絡、數碼科技、電子貨幣……中國就算不超前西方國家，也跟他們叮噹馬頭。

　　不過，我們是個不斷反省、不斷自我修正的民族，當大家沉醉在超英趕美的成就，也要捫心自問：我們還有什麼地方落後於人？

　　有，絕對有。起碼，說到玩「攻心計」遊戲，中國人就拍馬都追不上西方。

　　日前，新來港的美國駐港澳總領事梅儒瑞（Gregory May）在社交網站發帖，用廣東話及英文留言說：

　　「大家成日講嘅兩餸飯，我終於搵咗個機會同香港上班族一齊排隊去嗌個嚟做lunch，價格實惠得嚟又好味喎！你哋必揀嘅餸又係咩呢？ ——總領事 Greg」

　　而他的英文版本提到「香港人」時，卻用了黃絲黑暴專用語「Hongkongers」來形容。

　　帖文還上載了幾張總領事買兩餸飯的照片，穿着西裝打着領呔，梅儒瑞提着飯盒笑得燦爛。這，就是西方國家厲害的攻心計手段。

　　精彩處，是他在帖文下面還標籤了幾隻字：「ThisThisRice」，正是大家點兩餸飯時常說的「呢個、呢個、飯」，證明他的身邊人真的懂香港、真的懂香港人。

　　於是，無論網民留言還是媒體報道，大家對總領事買兩餸飯的反應都一致豎起大拇指，有說他貼地，有說他親民，有人說他來了一個月就知道世情，有人讚他肯走入社區了解民生，有人親切地問他點了哪兩個餸，有人推介他下次要吃「男人的浪漫——豆腐火腩飯」……

　　一盒三十塊錢的兩餸飯，勝過花幾百萬找公關公司做什麼形象工程。這，就是西方政客厲害之處，一出擊，計算準確，一招攻心，一世記住。

　　我想起，當年彭定康吃蛋撻、飲涼茶，其實跟美總領事今天的兩餸飯，異曲同工。

　　西方人擅長玩這些攻心計，什麼時候吃一口路邊攤？什麼時候蹲下跟孩子說句話？都是經過精密計算。

　　中國人也學玩這種遊戲，但功力未夠，總給人擺拍感覺。其實美領事這些又何嘗不是一場戲，只是他們做慣真人騷，戲好、投入，當然，表達方法也很重要。中國人在攻心文宣這方面，依然很落後，所以才會一直處於捱打式抹黑狀況。

　　描述英國首相邱吉爾的傳記電影《黑暗對峙》中，有一幕非常感動人心，就是說邱吉爾在戰與不戰之間，難作決定，於是他走進地鐵車廂，跟英國民眾一起搭車聊天，了解老百姓想法。雖然有人質疑這一幕首相搭地鐵是杜撰的，但起碼證明，西方人確實很懂這一套。

　　中國人太老實，在虛偽的競賽中，我們還是要急起直追。
