口述歷史:《靜水流深》(19 ) 在「人權最好時期」女法輪功學員被逼裸體呆在囚室

一向「秩序井然」的調遣處像炸了鍋似的,點名的、答應的、來登記誰走誰不走的、互相打聽誰走誰不走的、互相留言的、囑咐的、收拾東西的、領取寄存物品的……各種聲音交織在一起,仿佛大難將臨。平時所有的「規矩」一下子作廢,所有人亂作一團,小院裡行李扔得遍地。太陽毒辣辣的,只覺好熱。緊張氣氛像在打仗。

Earn Money Standing Up vs Go To Jail on Your Knees

Hello, everyone, welcome to “Inconvenient Truths”. I am your host Jennifer Zeng.

Today I will talk about two extremely different, actually completely opposite, but both very sensational events in the entertainment, or art community, as well as what we can learn from these two events.

Before we move on to our topic, please let me introduce one more time the membership area on my website.

If you haven’t, please do go to my website at https://www.jenniferzengblog.com/, sign up to become a member of “Inconvenient Truths”, or make a donation.

After you sign up, you can go to the “ Member Area”, submit your questions or topic suggestions with this form, you can also claim your free gift, a signed magazine from me by filling your address in this form so that I can mail a copy to you.

You can also check out members only content. The audio file for each show is for members only, so that you can use your spare time to listen to the show if you don’t have time to watch it.

Anyway, I do hope this member area can become a better channel for us to communicate without fearing the big tech’s suppression. Sometimes I feel very sad that America, and maybe other countries too, have become like this, when we don’t have free speech any more. But I always remember a saying in Chinese, “It is not because there is hope that we fight, but because we fight, there is hope.”

So, let’s continue to fight together.

Now, let’s move to our topics today.

Membership Announcement & Why Hasn’t the Chinese Economy Collapsed Despite All the Crises?

Hello, everyone, welcome to “Inconvenient Truths”. I am your host Jennifer Zeng.

Today I have a big announcement to make regarding the membership and donation function on my website, then I will discuss a question that has puzzled many people for a long time: Why hasn’t the Chinese Economy collapsed despite all the Crises?

Membership Announcement

First of all, I am so excited to announce that I have set up a membership and donation function on my website at jenniferzengblog.com, so that I can start creating and offering exclusive content and services for members, as well as fight back against the big tech companies’ censorship and suppression.

Benefits for members include, but are not limited to:

1: Members only script and audio file of each show.

2. Members only behind the scenes stories, photos and videos

3. Members can submit questions and subject suggestions for me to answer or to do programs on. And I will do live Q and A after enough questions are submitted.

4. First 50 members can get a free signed copy of Magnifissance magazine with me featured as the cover story!

I started my channel “ Inconvenient Truths “ in April last year, during the peak of the COVID19 pandemic to tell the truth about the virus, about China, the Chinese Communist Party and the world.

Since then I’ve created hundreds of videos, and the feedback is overwhelmingly positive and encouraging. Some say I have saved an astronomical number of lives, some say I am key in making this world a better place, some say my life is a gift to the world, some say the information I offer is always ahead of mainstream media, etc.

The most encouraging feedback I got is from a Teddy bear maker in Alaska. Because she learned the truth about the pandemic from me early enough, she was able to move faster than others, and turned her factory into a fabric mask maker before everyone was rushing to buy masks. And this has made a world of difference for both her and her employees!

However, unfortunately, because of the big tech companies’ censorship and suppression, the impact I am making is still limited, and I always struggle to cover costs so that I can survive. The views of my videos suddenly dropped by almost 90% since January this year, and the number of my subscribers almost stopped growing at all.

Therefore, in order to spread the truth, to fight back against big tech, I do need your support.

Please sign up or make a donation so that more people can be helped through your generosity.

We are living in an unprecedented time in a fast changing world. And Truth does matter.

Sign up or donate. I do count on you. Thank you so much on behalf of all my audience!

Now, let’s move to our next topic: Why hasn’t the Chinese economy collapsed?

有無可以公佈中共受害人照片的平臺?Is There a Channel where Victims of the CCP Can Post Photos of Missing Loved Ones?

After watching my show “ I Also Survived “Squid Game”. How? “ , one viewer asked: “Is there a channel or site on any of the platforms where victims of the CCP can post photos of the regime’s brutality or photos of missing loved ones? I would imagine it would be a very popular site.”

一名西人觀衆在看了我的節目《 我經歷的現實版「魷魚遊戲」-兼評《魷魚遊戲》之隱喻、現實和希望 》留言問:「有無一個頻道或網站,可以讓中共的受害者們把反映中共政權的殘暴的圖片,或他們失蹤親人的圖片貼出來?如果有的話,該大受歡迎吧。」

And I replied: “I once met a woman in Melbourne. Her brother was persecuted to death for practicing Falun Gong, but his case or his name was not included in the death list compiled by overseas Falun Gong practitioners at https://en.minghui.org/cc/117 .

我回答說:「我在墨爾本曾經遇到過一位女士,她的弟弟因修煉法輪功被迫害致死了,但他的名字並沒有被包含在法輪功網站 明慧網的被迫害致死的學員名單( https://library.minghui.org/deathcase/Html/DeathCase/DeathDate/ )中。

“I asked her whether she wanted me to help her submit his brother’s case to minghui.org, she refused.

「我問她想不想讓我幫她把她弟弟的名字和案例發給明慧網,她拒絕了。

“She still had family in China. She dared not.

「她還有家人在中國。她不敢。

“She herself was not a Falun Gong practitioner, but was once also put in jail, as she owned a printing factory and once helped Falun Gong practitioners with printing Falun Gong flyers before the persecution started, when everybody thought Falun Gong was good. She was put into an iron cage, her bra taken away, so her upper body was naked. And the police shone a bright light on her and did not let her close her eyes for several days and nights…

「她自己並不修煉法輪功,但也曾受牽連入獄,那是因爲她曾經擁有一家印刷廠,在迫害發生前,她曾經幫忙印過法輪功的傳單。當時法輪功還很受歡迎。她入獄後,警察把她關在一個鐵籠子裏,扒光她的上衣,她赤裸著上身,警察用強光照著她,讓她幾天幾夜都沒法閤眼……

“She was so scared, and I gave up the idea of pushing her further to have her brother’s name included in that death list.

「 她受到的傷害太大了,我見到她時她依然是一副嚇得魂都沒有了的樣子。我不忍心再勸說她,讓她把弟子的名字和死亡情況公佈出去,或放入明慧網的死亡名單中。

“I don’t know how many other death or missing cases are there in China…”

「我不知道在中國還有多少這種情況,親人死了或失蹤了,但仍然不敢吱聲……」

口述歷史:《靜水流深》(18 )在勞教所 我們頂著電刑壓力 喊出生命最強音!

那是一個神聖的莊嚴時刻。偉大的佛法第一次在堪稱當今人間最黑暗的集中營響起。

七個人的聲音、七個人的生命匯作一股浩然正氣,沖破了黑暗,沖破了霄漢,沖破層層天宇,剎那令一切邪惡勢力魂飛魄散、灰飛煙滅……。

這是調遣處成立以來最嚴重的「事件」,警察與狼和狽,統統慌作一團,全部跑到班裡,用最大的嗓門哀號:「閉嘴!!……。」 在

他們瘋狂的叫喊中,我覺得肉體消失了,意志化作一尊金剛不破的巨神,帶著排山倒海的勇氣,心無旁鶩、堅定不移、壓倒一切地繼續背下……

I Also Survived “Squid Game”. How?

I Also Survived "Squid Game". How?

Hello, everyone, welcome to “Inconvenient Truths”. I am your host Jennifer Zeng.

 Netflix’s “Squid Game” has recently become a global hit. So many people have been watching and talking about it. Before I had a chance to watch it, someone sent me a long report from the Mirror,  titled “Horrific real-life Squid Game sees ‘thousands of prisoners harvested for organs ALIVE’”. This story has a subheading that reads “Prisoner x-rayed at horrific concentration camp”. The whole of this subtitle is about my experience, and the interview with me.

 After reading this report, I felt very bad about being included in a report about “Squid Game” without watching it. So I worked overtime for two days to finish watching this nine-episode Korean survival drama.

After watching it, of course, I have so much to say, and my thoughts were different from everyone else’s because unlike everyone else, I am not a “bystander” making some careless remarks. I have actually experienced a real life “Squid Game”, and it is a much more brutal, gruesome, and a larger “game” that is still being played now.

So, today, as a survivor of a real life “Squid Game”,  I’d like to compare the TV drama with the real-life version of “Squid Game” that I experienced from the perspective of a “game” participant, not an onlooker, in the following aspects.

 Harvested for Organs Alive

 In “Squid Game”, the horrific scene of a doctor and several game workers colluding to harvest the participants’ organs and sell them was shown in a very realistic and vivid way.

This scene immediately drew the attention of the mainstream media. In addition to the Mirror report that I mentioned above, the  Daily Mail in Britain also published a long report titled “They’ll take your liver and you won’t even know’: China’s real-life Squid Game: How organs are harvested from THOUSANDS every week for a ‘kill to order’ market – and why the world is powerless to stop it”

Why is the world powerless to stop it? The report says it is “because the World Health Organisation is compelled to accept the totalitarian nation’s ‘inadequate and misleading’ hospital data without question.”

So, this is pretty much like the situation with the CCP Virus, or the COVID19, right?

 I think the reason why the killing and selling of organs is in “Squid Game” may have something to do with a Korean documentary called “Kill to Live“.

This 50-minute investigative report was shot inside China by a Korean journalist who risked his life to do some on-the-ground research, providing strong evidence that the Chinese Communist Party, the CCP, has been killing people and selling their organs.

The documentary caused quite some attention when it was broadcast in 2017.

So I think the scriptwriter of “Squid Game” was probably inspired by this documentary  and other reports and wrote the story of live organ harvesting into the script, as we all say that art comes from life.

 However, the real-life version of live organ harvesting is much more brutal and gruesome compared to “Squid Game,” and it is still being done today.

Imagine if the live organ harvesting in “Squid Game” had not been done secretly by a participating doctor and a few staff members, but on a large scale and “righteously” by the organizer of the “game”.

If that is the case, the main “use” of the 456 participants in the “game” might not be for entertainment, but for killing and selling for money.

In fact, this is exactly how the CCP’s system of live organ harvesting works.

 Three Horrible Medical Examinations

 In April 2000, I was arrested for the fourth time in Beijing for practicing Falun Gong, a peaceful meditation and self improvement system that has been under persecution for more than 22 years in China.

On June 1, 2000, on the way from Beijing Chongwen District Detention Center to the labor camp, I was taken to a clinic with several other people in the same police van for a physical examination.

The doctor carefully examined our five sense organs, peeled our eyelids and examined our eyeballs, and made us lie on the bed, carefully feeling our internal organs, listening to our heart beats, etc, and asking our medical history.

I thought this was a routine checkup and didn’t think much of it, but I honestly told the doctor that I had had hepatitis before practicing Falun Gong, and more than once. I had contracted hepatitis C during a blood transfusion after giving birth. I told him about this because I wanted him to know that practicing Falun Gong is good for health, and it was wrong for the CCP to persecute us.

 I saw that the doctor carefully wrote down everything I said. But I really didn’t think about anything else at that time.

One day, about a month after we were sent to the labor camp, a big bus suddenly arrived, and all the windows of the bus were blocked with cloth curtains, and we were told to urgently gather in front of the bus. Every two of us were handcuffed with one pair of handcuffs, and pushed onto the bus.

There were not enough seats for all of us, so the extra people were ordered to squat in the aisle, or the little space between the two rows of seats.

Imagine the scene, it was exactly like a horror movie. We did not know where we were being taken, and for what purpose. The police were heavily armed, the curtains were closed tightly, we couldn’t see anything outside of the bus.

We were told to keep our heads down and bury them in the lap of the persons sitting in the seats, and to put our uncuffed hands behind our heads, like this.

The bus was moving forward like a black box, and there was so little air inside it. I squatted in the gap between the two rows of seats with my head down and my sweat soon soaked through my clothes.

When we arrived at the place, we realized that we had been pulled for a medical checkup at a formal hospital much larger than the last clinic, where there was an X-ray machine, and all of us were X-rayed.

After another month or so, we were called to a small clinic inside the labor camp in groups and had our blood drawn one by one.

 The purpose for all these medical examinations was to know our blood types and physical conditions, and the data was stored in a computer. When someone needs organs, and can afford to buy them, the CCP’s doctors and transplant hospitals can search from that database to find a match. And then that match is killed so that his or her organs can be sold for money.

This is not a horror movie, this is a real industry in China with astronomical profits, and myself was subjected to 3 physical examinations, for that purpose.

However, the physical examinations happened in 2000. At that time,  I did not know about this live organ harvesting crime, nor did I know the purpose of these repeated medical examinations. So I did not fear those examinations particularly, nor did I think that these things were important.

 That is why when I wrote my memoir about the labor camp, I did not mention these medical examinations at all. If I had known the purpose of the experience at that time, I don’t know how I would have felt when I was pulled around in that black box.

Jennifer’s book covers

Later, after I found out about the organ harvesting, I thought back to my experience and realized that I might have saved my life by telling the doctor that I had hepatitis twice. Having hepatitis makes you a “waste product” from the perspective of organ transplantation, right? Whether or not my life was saved because of this, I really don’t know.

 A “Psycho” No One Believes In 

 There is another episode in “Squid Game” that impressed me a lot, that is, after participating in the first game, everyone found out that it was actually a killing game, and people were killed instantly if they lost the game. So everyone was so scared.  Then after a “democratic vote”, they decided to end the game.

After the game was over, the main character Seong Gi-hun,  went to the police station to report that the game had killed more than 200 people, and the police should rush to investigate and arrest people to stop the killing. But he was driven out as a psychopath-no one believed what he said, it was too unbelievable.

 I remember that shortly after the crime of harvesting organs from Falun Gong practitioners was first exposed by the Chinese edition of The Epoch Times in 2006, I told people about it, and people would not believe me and asked for evidence.

At that time, I felt the same way as Seong Gi-hun. It felt like when I went to the police station to report the crime, the police asked me for evidence, but when I couldn’t produce any, they didn’t open a case, didn’t look for the missing person, and even ridiculed me, or said that I was lying, slandering socialism, slandering the new China, and so on.

At that time, I said: “As a group of victims, how can we produce evidence? How can we have evidence when people have been killed? When someone who knows something comes forward, you say that it is not evidence. We don’t have a detective agency, we don’t have a search warrant, we don’t have a gun, and we can’t break into the places where people are kept, so how can we get evidence?”

But this absurdity is still happening today, and those who ask us for “evidence” never consider the ridiculousness of this logic.

In fact, after more than ten years of hard work, there is already a lot of evidence, some of which has been certified by the independent China Tribunal in the UK, as well as nine UN Special Rapporteurs.

The China tribunal has ruled that the crimes “have been proved beyond reasonable doubt”.

Unfortunately, many people’s mentality is,  as long as my family has not been killed, then this matter has nothing to do with me. So they even don’t bother to get themselves informed about this matter.

 The “Gganbu” Marble Game in “Squid Game” & the “Scoring System” in the CCP’s Labor Camp

 There is another game in “Squid Game” which is also very impressive, that is, after the tug-of-war team competition of ten people in each group, the participants are asked to form a group of two people, and everyone looks for the one who is close to them or who they believe can form the strongest team with them.

But it turns out that the game is for the two people to become rivals to kill each other, and only one of the two people can survive.

This reminds me of the “scoring system” in the CCP’s labor camps. This system ensures that the prisoners inside the camp will fight over one another and work themselves to death for the CCP.

How does the system work? It works like this. Each prisoner is given a score every day, and those who do more work, those who listen to the police, those who report on others to the police, and so on, all get extra points.

In the meantime, those who fail to complete the labor task, who are disobedient,  who violate the labor camp regulations, etc., will be deducted points.

When I was in the labor camp, the most important concern of the prisoners was their own points everyday. The labor camp would regularly compare the scores of all prisoners, and the ones with the highest scores would get their labor camp terms reduced, while the ones with the lowest scores would have their terms extended.

Since the reduction and increase of terms are based on points, and the point is a relative concept, that is, if you want to reduce your terms the most, your points must be at the top of the list.

In this way, the CCP does not have to employ more police force to hold an electric baton on the side to watch over the prisoners, everyone will “willingly” take the initiative to work hard, monitor others and report to the police, and so on, because everyone wants to get more points than others. In this way, it is ensured that the prisoners will definitely crush one another and compete with one another.

In other words, the CCP uses this “scoring system” to mobilize the evil side in human nature to do evil to one another, thus to turn everyone into willingly slaves to the CCP.

However, for Falun Gong practitioners, the standards are different. The most important thing  for them is to renounce their faith. If they do not denounce their beliefs, they are not even eligible to participate in the scoring process and are always under strict control, and subjected to all sorts of torture.

  “Equality” and “Discipline” Levels

 Another absurd and ironic episode in “Squid Game” is that the organizers actually said that they wanted to ensure that everyone was equal, so those who broke the equality of the game, including the doctor who harvested the organs of the participants, were all executed.

The CCP’s labor camps were just the opposite. They divided people into different classes. People of different “discipline” levels were given different colored badges.

Jennifer’s badge from Beijing Female Labor Camp

This is the badge of mine from Beijing Female Labor Camp. The top line is my name, the middle line is to which squad I belonged to, it’s Squad 2 by the way, the bottom line reads: “Discipline Levels: General Control”. It is orange in color. The badge of the strict control team was white. I wore a white badge and was under “strict control” for a long time in the labor camp.

 The price I paid to get this orange “General Control” badge is unbelievable, and I don’t have time to go into details here. If you are interested, you can get a copy of my memoir and read it. It is such a long story. I hope someday it can be turned into a movie. If you know any movie makers, please recommend my story to them.

  All Madness Comes from The “Original Heart” of Destroying Mankind

 The other day when I was interviewed by Young Americans Against Socialism, I talked about the sleep deprivation in the labor camp, and how I witnessed the moment when a young woman was driven into insanity after being kept awake for 5 days and 4 nights.

 The host couldn’t understand why the CCP would do such a thing to people. She asked me, after these people were driven into insanity, they couldn’t make any contribution to their communities after they were released. Why would the CCP  do that? She couldn’t understand it at all.

 I recommended her to read these two books: “Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party” and “How the Specter of Communism Is Ruling Our World “.

And I said to her,  the police officers in the labor camps only cared about whether or not the hard “reform rate” target for “converting” Falun Gong practitioners could be accomplished, whether or not they could keep their jobs and bonuses, etc. They wouldn’t care less about whether those Falun Gong practitioners could still contribute to society after they returned home, that was not their concern whatsoever.

In addition, the Communist Party is an evil specter that exists in another dimension, and it manipulates and directs people with bad thoughts in this dimension to do evil things for it. The ultimate goal of communism, or the “original heart” as the communist leaders call it, is to destroy mankind, not to make human society better.

Therefore, if you try to understand the CCP with the mindset of ordinary people, the mindset of ordinary governments that want to make society better, you simply cannot understand it at all.

  Metaphor, Reality and Hope

 Finally, I would like to say that “Squid Game” is indeed a very good TV drama. Its scripting is very compact and gripping, and each episode ends at a most heart-wrenching moment, making people want to watch the next episode right away.

It reveals the ugliness of human nature in order to survive in a life and death environment, where one cannot help oneself. And these uglinesses are presented in a very straightforward and compelling way, in front of the audience in a bloody manner.

Some people say that this drama is a satire of the social reality of the CCP’s China. I basically agree with this statement. In the last game, when the only two people left were fighting to the death, it suddenly started to rain, and then someone among the “VIPs” who were watching the game from the shadows suddenly recited a poem in Chinese: 「好雨知時節」, which can be translated as “Good rain is coming to our delight”, meaning that the rain came at the right time to make the fight more difficult and therefore more enjoyable for the VIPs who were watching.

The Chinese speaking VIP is, of course, from China.

Some other people say that “Squid Game” is a reflection of the human race in the end time and is rich in philosophical reflections. I basically agree with this too. In my opinion, the darkness in the CCP’s labor camps is far worse.

When the rules of the game are set by evil people who take pleasure in making people kill one another and watching people kill one another, people who are at the bottom of the society, who can only play the game with their lives, where it’s really hard to make any different choices, they can only kill others so that they can survive. Sometimes they can’t survive even after they kill others. The best thing they can do is to die together with others.

Squid Game’s bloody visual impact, I think, also represents the script writer and director’s view and perception of the real world. The reality is just like what is shown in Squid Game, so no one should blame them for making the visuals so cruel and bloody.

However, in this “end of the world” time, is there really no hope?

There are two things in Squid Game that shocked me the most.

One is that in the final duel, when the main character could have taken all the 45.6 billion in prize money by killing his opponent who was already lying on the ground and unable to fight back, he chose to stop the “game” and give up the prize money and not to kill his opponent.

Another point is that at the end of the drama, the main character can obviously take the prize money and fly away to be reunited with his daughter, but he turns around and walks towards the audience, and then the whole play ends abruptly there. But everyone in the audience understands that this means the main character wants to go back to stop this killing game from continuing.

 That is to say, this cruel game is not impossible to stop, or to be reversed. As a matter of fact, from the very beginning, at any time, as long as more than half of the participants are willing to stop, it can be stopped.

However, most of the time, most ordinary people can’t control their own hearts, can’t control their own desires, and eventually go further and further down the wrong path until they lose their lives.

When watching the drama, I was very, very involved, and often I would think to myself: if it were me, what could I do in that situation?

Finally, I figured it out: why should I participate in this evil game at all? Why should I let them make the rules? If you control your own heart, restrain your own desires, and stay away from this evil game from the very beginning, those “VIPs” are not capable of manipulating these “little guys” at all.

Or, to put it another way, everything in the drama is just about money, right? If one can understand that one’s destiny and how much money one can have in one’s life doesn’t depend on how greedy one is, one can be completely above all the ugly “games” in the world.

I think this TV drama with such a strong sense of reality will certainly cause many viewers to think. The result of my own thinking is: in fact, whether we are big guys or small guys in the world, if we can start from our own hearts, we CAN not only save ourselves, but also save others, and the world.

 That’s all for today. Thank you very much for watching. Please do spread my videos if you like them.

Thank you. See you soon!

发表在 Commentaries 時評, Journalism 我的報導, LIFE STORIES 人生故事 | 留下评论

我經歷的現實版「魷魚遊戲」-兼評《魷魚遊戲》之隱喻、現實和希望

最近韓國電視劇「魷魚遊戲」紅遍了全球,許多人都在評論。我還沒來得及看,就有人給我發了一篇英國《鏡報》的長篇英文報導,題目翻譯成中文就是《恐怖的現實版「魷魚遊戲」 成千上萬囚徒被活摘器官》(“Horrific real-life Squid Game sees ‘thousands of prisoners harvested for organs ALIVE’”),這篇報導有一個小標題是「 囚犯在恐怖的集中營中做X光掃描」(Prisoner x-rayed at horrific concentration camp),整個這個小標題講的就是我的經歷,以及對我的採訪。

也就是這篇報導,促使我這兩天加班加點把這部九集電視劇看完了。

看完之後,我當然有太多的感想,而且我的感想與其他人所不同的是,我不像其他人一樣,是作爲一名「旁邊者」來做評論的。我真正經歷過現實版的《魷魚遊戲》,而且是更殘酷、更可怕、規模更大的「魷魚遊戲」,這個「遊戲」今天仍在上演。

下面我就想從一個「遊戲」參加者、而不是圍觀者的角度,從以下這幾個方面來對比一下電視劇中的《魷魚遊戲》和我所經歷過的現實版《魷魚遊戲》。

一、關於活摘器官

《魷魚遊戲》中,以非常真實、寫實的鏡頭,十分逼真的表現了一名醫生和幾個遊戲工作人員勾結,把參賽者的器官挖出來賣的恐怖場景。

這個場景立刻就引起了主流媒體的關注。除了上面我提到的英國《鏡報》的報導外,英國的《每日電訊》也出了一篇長篇報導,題目也特別長,叫《「他們會盜取你的肝臟,你還根本不知道」:中國的現實版魷魚遊戲:在按需殺人的市場中,每週數千人的器官被盜取,以及世界爲何對此無能爲力》(’They’ll take your liver and you won’t even know’: China’s real-life Squid Game: How organs are harvested from THOUSANDS every week for a ‘kill to order’ market — and why the world is powerless to stop it)。

爲何對此無能爲力呢?這篇報導給出的結論是:因爲世衛組織問也不問就接受了中共給他們的假數據。這就跟在新冠病毒問題上的處理是一樣的。

我想,殺人賣器官的情節之所以出現在《魷魚遊戲》中,可能跟幾年前韓國最大的日報社《朝鮮日報》做的一部反映器官活摘的紀錄片《殺了才能活》有關。這部近五十分鐘的紀錄片是韓國記者冒險深入到中國去做實地調查並實地拍攝出來的,以強有力的證據証明了中共一直在殺人賣器官。

紀錄片在播出的時候挺轟動的。

所以,《魷魚遊戲》的編劇,很可能是受此啓發,把器官活摘的事寫進劇本裏的,大家都說藝術來源於生活嘛。

然而,現實版的器官活摘與《魷魚遊戲》相比,那是更殘酷、更可怕的,而且至今仍在進行的。

想像一下,如果《魷魚遊戲》中的器官活摘,不是由一個參加遊戲的醫生和幾個工作人員偷偷摸摸地做,而是由主辦方主持,大規模地做、「正大光明」地做,情況會怎樣呢?

那400多參加「遊戲」的人員的主要「用途」,可能就不是供娛樂觀賞,而是直接殺了賣錢了。

事實上,中共的活摘器官系統,正是這樣運作的。

二、三次恐怖體檢

2000年4月,我因爲修煉法輪功在北京第四次被抓,6月1號,在從北京崇文看守所往北京勞教人員調遣處送的路上,我和其他幾名同車被押送的被送到一個診所檢查身體。

醫生仔細地檢查了我們的五官,扒著眼皮檢查了眼球,還讓我們躺在牀上,仔細地摸我們的內臟,用聽診器聽心臟,還一個一個問病史。

我當時以爲這是常規的例行檢查,也沒多想,只老老實實告訴醫生我修煉法輪功之前得過肝炎,而且不止一次,上初中時得過急性黃疸型肝炎,休過學,分娩時後輸血時又感染上丙型肝炎。但修煉法輪功後都好了,等等。我告訴他這些,是想讓他知道修煉法輪功對身體有好處。

我看見醫生都仔細記了下來。但當時並沒想其他的。

進了勞教所大約一個月多後,有一天勞教所突然來了一輛大公共汽車,汽車的所有窗戶有用布簾子擋得結結實實的,然後讓我們緊急集合,每兩個人用一副手銬銬上塞進公共汽車,把汽車塞得滿滿的。坐不下的人就蹲在中間的過道上,或者是兩排座位之間的空隙裏。

大家想像一下那種場景,完全跟恐怖電影一樣,我們不知道要被拉到哪裏去幹什麼,警察荷槍實彈的押送,窗簾關得嚴嚴實實,看不到外面。

我們被要求低著頭,把頭埋在坐著的人的大腿上,沒有被銬的那只手還必須抱在腦袋後面,這是在調遣處的標準姿式,叫作「低頭抱首」。

公共汽車像個黑匣子似地往前移動,車子裏密不透風,我就這樣「低頭抱首」地蹲在兩排座位之間的空隙裏,一會兒汗就把衣服全溼透了。

到了地方才知道,我們是被拉去做體檢的,是一個比上次的診所大很多的正規醫院,醫院裏有X光機,我們所有人都被照了X光。

又過了一個多月,我們又幾個幾個一組,被叫到勞教所內的一個小診室,一一抽了血。

所有這些體檢,都是爲了知道我們的血型和身體狀況,數據存在電腦裏,哪天有人需要器官了就從數據庫裏找,找到合適的就把那個人殺了,器官取出來賣錢。

這不是恐怖電影,這是真實發生在我身上的事。

只不過,那是2000年,當時並不知道器官活摘的事,也完全不知道這些反復的身體檢查的目的,所以當時並不知道怕,也沒覺得這些事情有什麼重要,所以我在寫關於勞教所的書《靜水流深》時,根本就完全沒提這幾次體檢的事。如果當時知道體驗的目的,那蹲在那個黑匣子裏被拉來拉去時,心情不知道會是怎樣。

後來知道器官活摘的事情後,再回想起當時的經歷,就覺得自己無心之中告訴醫生得到兩次肝炎的事,可能在無意中救了自己的命。得過肝炎,從器官移植的角度,就成了「廢品」了吧。我的命是不是因此而保下來的,那也真是不得而知。

三、無人相信的「神經病」

《魷魚遊戲》中還有一個情節令我印象深刻,就是大家第一次參加完第一遊戲,發現這居然是個殺人遊戲,遊戲中不合格的當場就射殺時,都嚇壞了,然後經過「民主投票」決定結束遊戲。

遊戲結束後,男人主公成奇勳跑到警察局去報案,說那個遊戲打死了二百多個人,讓警察趕快去調查抓人,制止殺人,卻被當作神經病趕了出來 — — 沒有相信他所說的事情,太匪夷所思了。

我記得中共活摘法輪功學員器官罪行剛剛曝光不久,我跟人家講起,也總是有人不信,問我要證據。這時我的心情,大致就跟那個成奇勳是一樣的。我當時痛心地說:我家有人被殺了,有人被抓了,有人失蹤了,我到警察局去報案,警察卻問我要證據,我拿不出證據,警察就不立案,不去找失蹤者,反過來還要嘲笑我,或說的撒謊,污衊社會主義,污衊新中國,等等。

我當時就說:作爲受害人羣體,我們有什麼能力拿出證據?人都被殺了哪裏有證據?有知情者出來爆料,你們又說那不是證據。我們又沒有偵探機構,又沒有搜查令,又沒有槍,又不能闖入關人的地方,要我們怎麼拿證據?

但這種荒唐的事一直在今天,仍然在發生,那些問我們要「證據」的人,從來就不想想這種邏輯的可笑。

其實,經過十幾年的努力,各種證據已經有不少了,有的已經經過法庭的認證了,英國的人民法庭甚至已經宣判罪行成立了,只是還是有好多人連現成的證據和審判過程都懶得去看。

只要我家的人還沒有被殺,那這事兒就與我無關。這就是許多人的心理。

四、《魷魚遊戲》中的「彈珠遊戲」和勞教所的「打分制度」

《魷魚遊戲》中還有一個戲碼也令人印象非常深刻,就是在剛剛結束了每組十人的拔河團體賽後,又讓參加遊戲的人兩人組成一組,大家按慣性思維找跟自己要好的,或以爲能與自己組成最強陣容的。

結果這個遊戲是讓兩個人變成對手互相殘殺,兩個人中只能活一個。

這又讓我想起了中共勞教所中的「打分制度」。這個制度就保證了勞教人員之間一定會互相「殘殺」,並爲會每個人都努力地、「自覺自願」地、甚至是拼上性命地幹活。

這怎麼回事呢?就是說,每個人每天都要被打分,幹活多的,聽警察話的,向警察告密的,等等,都可以得到加分。相當,沒有完成勞動任務的,不聽話的,違反紀律的等等,就要被扣分。

我在勞教所裏,那些勞教人員最關心的就是自己的積分。勞教所定期會把所有人的分數進行比較,分最高的幾個人就可以得到減刑,分最低的就被加刑。

由於減刑、加刑都是根據分數來的,而分數是個相對的概念,就是你想要減刑最多,你的分數就得排在最前面。

就這樣,中共不用警力,不用誰拿個電棍在邊上看著,所有人都會主動拼死拼活的幹活、向警察告密,等等,因爲誰都想比別人拿更多的分。這樣,就保證了勞教人員互相之間一定會相互碾壓、互相競爭。

是說,中共用這個「打分制度」,充分調動人性中的惡,來互相作惡,從而成爲中共這個最大惡魔的奴隸。

不過,對法輪功學員,標準又是另外一套。對法輪功學員來說,最重要的是放棄信仰。如果不放棄信仰,那就連參加打分的資格都沒有,一直都屬於被嚴管的對象,各種酷刑那更是家常便飯。

五、「平等」與「管教」級別

《魷魚遊戲》裏還有個荒唐而又富於諷刺性的情節,就是主辦方居然說要保證大家都是平等的,所以破壞遊戲平等性的人都被處死了。

中共的勞教所恰恰相反,把人分爲三六九等。不同等級的人戴著不同顏色的胸卡。

我在北京女子勞教所時的胸卡

這是我當時在北京女子勞教所的胸卡,上面寫著:「級別:普管」,顏色是橙色的。嚴管隊的胸卡是白色的。我進勞教所很久時間都戴著白色胸卡,受到嚴管。

爲了得到這個橙色的「普管」級別胸卡,我付出的代價是不可思議的,也沒時間在這兒細說。大家有興趣可以去看看《靜水流深》這本書,或者等着在油管上看我的口述《靜水流深》系列。我慢慢就會講到這裏。

六、所有的瘋狂均源自毀滅人類的「初心」

前兩天我在接受美國抵制社會主義青年聯盟( Young Americans Against Socialism)的採訪時,談到中共在勞教所不讓法輪功學員睡覺,把人活活逼瘋、而且我眼睜睜看到過一個人被逼瘋的那一瞬間,主持人非常不解地問我:中共爲什麼要這樣做?把人逼瘋了,回到社會,也不能再爲社區做任何貢獻,這人就完全廢了。中共爲何要這樣做?她完全不能理解。

我就對她說,推薦她去讀一下《九評共產黨》、《共產主義的終極目的》和《魔鬼在統治我們的世界》這幾本書看看。

我說,勞教所的警察,他們只關心「轉化」法輪功學員的硬性的「轉化率」指標能不能完成,他們能不能保住工作,保住獎金,這人回家後是不是廢了,是不是還能爲社會做貢獻,那不在他們的考慮範圍之內。

另外,共產黨就是一個存在於另外空間的邪靈,它在操控指揮人類這個空間中有壞思想的人爲它幹壞事。共產主義的終極目的,也就是共匪頭子口裏的「初心」,就是毀滅人類,不是把人類社會怎麼樣搞好。

所以你用一般人的思維,一般的政府想把社會搞好的思維來理解共產黨,那根本是理解不了的。

七、隱喻、現實與希望

最後,我想說,《魷魚遊戲》這部片子,的確是一部非常優秀的片子。它的編劇非常緊湊、抓人,每一集都結束在一個最扣人心絃的時刻,讓人很想馬上再往下看。

它揭示了人在惡劣的環境下、在身不以由己的環境中,爲了求生而表現出的種種人性中的醜惡,然後把這些醜惡用一種非常直白、毫不遮掩的方式,血淋淋地展現在觀衆面前,我想,編劇和導演,一定是有很深刻的思考的。

有人說,這部劇就是諷刺中共國的社會現實的。對這種說法,我也基本同意。在最後一場遊戲,僅剩下的兩個人做生死對決時,天突然下起雨來,這時在現場躲在暗處觀賞遊戲的「貴賓」中突然有人用中文吟了一句杜甫的詩:「好雨知時節」,表示這雨下得正是時候,能讓打鬥更艱難,能讓他們看得更加過癮。

說中文的貴賓,當然就是來自中共國的。

也有人說,《魷魚遊戲》這部劇折射了末世的人類,富含很深的哲理。這話我基本也同意。在我看來,中共國勞教所中的黑暗,那是有過之而無不及的。

當制定遊戲規則的都是些流氓惡棍,以看殺人爲樂,以讓人互相殘殺爲樂時,處於社會底層,只能搏命玩遊戲的人,的確是很難有所選擇的,只能殺死別人,讓自己活下去。有時候甚至殺死別人自己也活不下去,只能同歸於盡。

影片血淋淋的視覺衝擊,我想,也代表著編劇導演對現實世界的看法和觀感。現實如此,莫怪編劇導演無情。

然而,在這接近「末世」的世界當中,真的是沒有希望了嗎?

影片中最讓我震撼的有兩個地方,一個是,在最後的決鬥中,主人公明明只要輕輕鬆鬆殺死已經躺在地上無力還及的對手,就可以拿走全部的456億的獎金時,卻選擇了停止「遊戲」, 放棄獎金,不殺對手。

另一處是,在影片的最後,主人公明明可以拿著獎金遠走高飛,與女兒團聚的,卻轉身向觀衆走來,然後全劇就在此戛然而止了。但所有觀衆都明白,這表示主人公要回去制止這種殺人遊戲繼續進行。

也就是說,這種殘酷的遊戲不是不能停止、逆轉的,從一開始就是,任何時候只要有一半以上的人願意停止,就可以停止的。

只是,很多時候,大多數的普通人都管不住自己的心,管不住自己的慾望,最後在錯誤的路上越走越遠,直到丟了性命。

看劇的時候,會非常投入,很多時候我會不由自己主的想:如果是我,我在那種情況下能夠怎樣?

後來終於想明白了,就是:爲什麼要去參加這種邪惡遊戲?爲什麼要任由他們來制定規則?管住自己的心,約束自己的慾望,從一開始就遠離這種邪惡遊戲的話,其實那些「貴賓們」是沒有什麼能力操縱這些「小人物的」。

說來說去,不就是一個「錢」字嗎?如果能真正明白,人的命,人能有多少錢,取決於你生生世世所積的「德」,而不取決於你的貪慾的話,那世間種種醜惡的「遊戲」,你是可以完全超然於外的。

我想,這部現實感如此之強的電視劇,一定會引起很多觀衆的思考。我自己思考的結果是:其實大人物也好,小人物也好,都可以從自己的心開始,拯救自己,拯救他人,拯救世界。

Xi Jinping Talks about “Orderly Transition of Power” While PLA Daily Highlight Famous Coup and Encourages the Military to Stay “Neutral” — Jennifer’s World

Hello, everyone, welcome to “Inconvenient Truths”. I am your host Jennifer Zeng.

Up until very recently, almost everyone thought that Xi Jinping will have no problem maintaining his power at next year’s CCP national congress, as he had successfully rewritten China’s constitution and eliminated the two-term limit on the presidency in 2018. But two recent incidents made some China observers think: Xi Jinping may not necessarily be able to keep his power. Today I will talk about these two incidents, and let you decide what you want to take away from them.

Xi Jinping Talks about “Orderly Transition of Power”

The first incident happened on Oct 14, when the CCP had a meeting in Being about the CCP’s People’s Congress system .

All seven members of the CCP’s Politburo Standing Committee and vice chairman Wang Qishan attended the meeting. And Xi Jinping made “an important speech”.

He mentioned that “At present, the world is undergoing an unprecedented major change that has never been seen in a century, the system competition is an important aspect of the competition for comprehensive national power, and the system advantage is an important one for a country to win the strategic advantage.”

Xi Jinping went on to say that China’s system is better than America’s, and China’s democracy is also better.

He then mentioned the most sensitive topic that nobody expected he would mention: the transition of power.

He said, “The evaluation of whether a country’s political system is democratic and effective depends mainly on whether the leadership of the country can be changed in an orderly manner in accordance with the law” and “whether all sectors of society can effectively participate in the political life of the country, whether national decision-making can be scientific and democratic, and whether talents from all walks of life can enter the state leadership and management system through fair competition.”

Wouldn’t you think that the CCP’s China is having better democracy after listening to Xi’s speech?

However, many China observers’ first thought after Xi Jinping’s mentioning about “orderly transition of power” was that Xi has encountered big problems. He must have felt that it could be impossible for him to continue to stay in power in next year’s 20th Congress, so he was trying to say that he was ready to hand over his power.

In the meantime, he wanted to warn his political enemies, if you want me to hand over my power, everything must be done in an orderly manner. The safety and interests of my family, myself and my supporters and followers must be ensured. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be any “orderly transition of power.”

Of course this could also mean that he was just threatening his political enemies and vowed that he wouldn’t hand over his power whatsoever, as according to his standard, everything is in order only if the power is in his own hand. If not, things are already out of order.

PLA Daily Highlights A Famous Coup and Encourages the Military to Stay “Neutral”

The second incident is more interesting. It happened only 3 days before Xi Jinping talked about “orderly transition of power”.

On Oct. 11, the CCP’s military newspaper called People’s Liberation Army Daily, or PLA Daily, published an article titled “Always Keep Your Reputation Intact”.

This article is on both the PLA daily’s website and newspaper, and the article title is from a line of a poem from.

Who is Yu Qian? He was a famous Chinese official from the Ming Dynasty, who was born in 1398 and died in1457, that is, more than 500 years ago. He served as the Minister of Wa r, which can be roughly understood as the Minister of Defense of our time.

Well, the PLA Daily article started with a poem of Yu Qian, which can be roughly translated as:

“Wealth is easy to go and hard to maintain

Man is half dead if he loses his aspiration and determination

As long as his reputation is intact

Why should he be bothered

By things that he can’t bring along?”

Then the article goes on to praise Yu Qian for being so upright, who only cared about principles, and who was never bothered by material gains. He had left nothing to his family after he died.

Then the article especially mentioned that when a coup happened, Yu Qian, as the Defense Minister, who controlled the entire army of the country, didn’t intervene, didn’t do anything, for the sake of the well-being of the entire nation. Even when he was wronged and thrown into prison, he didn’t argue, he didn’t try to defend himself. And what a great person he was, he has been admired for thousands of years, etc.

The coup mentioned in the article was referred to as “The Coup At the Gate”, or The Coup of Seizing the Gate.” When people with knowledge of the history of that coup read the story, they couldn’t help thinking, “Wow, wow! What am I reading? Is this real?”

Why would they exclaim like that?

To understand this, we need to know a little bit of the history behind the “ The Coup At the Gate “ event that happened in 1457 during China’s Ming Dynasty.

To cut a long story short, the coup went on like this:

The sixth emperor of the Ming Dynasty was.

So this is a portrait of him. He became the emperor in 1435 when he was only 9 years old. In 1449, when he was still a young man of 22 years old, he was captured and imprisoned by Mongols after he lost a war with the Mongols.

So after he was captured, his brother became the new emperor amid the crisis, and was referred to as Emperor.

After that Yu Qian, the Minister of War, successfully defended Beijing when the Mongols attempted to further invade the Ming Dynasty.

Then, one year later, in 1450, the Mongols and Ming Dynasty made peace. The captured Emperor Yingzong was released and returned.

But one country couldn’t have two emperors, right? So Yingzong was immediately put under house arrest by Emperor Jingtai, although Yingzong was still officially the “Supreme Emperor”, which can be literally understood as the person above the emperor.

So Emperor Jingtai continued to be the emperor for another 7 years. In 1457, he became very ill, and he didn’t have an heir, as his only son had already died before him.

So the Dynasty was in crisis again because the emperor could die any time without a successor. Some officials then figured, how about we re-install the ex-emperor, or the Supreme Emperor to solve the problem?

So they really organized some troops to carry out the plan. They marched to the place where the ex-emperor was imprisoned. They attacked the gate with a big truck of wood, and ended up breaking the wall.

When the ex-emperor Yingzong saw them breaking into the courtyard, he was nearly scared to death, as he thought these people were sent by his brother to kill him. But everybody knelt down in front of him, called him the emperor and told him their plan.

Then they put Yingzong onto a Jiaozi (轿子), or a palanquin [pæ’lənkin], and carried him to the emperor’s palace.

When they reached a gate called Donghua Gate (东华门), they couldn’t get through, as the gate was heavily guarded by soldiers.

What could they do? It seemed that their coup would have to fail.

At this stage, Supreme Emperor Yingzong got off his palanquin, and shouted, I am the Supreme Emperor, who dares to stop me?

The Supreme Emperor was officially even higher than the emperor. So the soldiers dared not to stop him. So Yingzong and his supporters went right to the emperor’s palace, and Yingzong was put onto the emperor’s seat and declared the new emperor.

So, the coup succeeded. As the most important moment of that coup was when Yingzong came out of his palanquin and shouted that he was the Supreme Emperor, that coup was called the “Coup at the Gate”, or the “Coup of Seizing the Gate.”

Now, let’s go back to the PLA Daily’s article.

When it openly praised the then Minister of War Yu Qian for staying “neutral” when and after the coup happened, what kind of a message does it give out?

We’ve already said in our last show about the CCP’s 100% ban of non-stated owned media that, in CCP’s China, nothing in the media is thrown out there without a reason or a hidden message.

So, as a military newspaper, what does the PLA Daily want to say?

People would naturally assume that the PLA Daily was telling the military, should there be a coup in China now, the military should learn from Yu Qian and stay “neutral”.

Now, if that is the message, it is not difficult at all to work out who is the modern time Emperor Yingzong, and who is the modern time Emperor Jingtai, right?

So of course Xi Jinping is the modern day Emperor Jingtai,

And either the CCP’s former head Jiang Zeming or former vice chairman of China Zeng Qinghong, or these two men’s gang, is the modern day Emperor Yingzong.

Military Refuses to Fight Against Enemies Created by Wolf Warrior Diplomacy

Actually, a while ago, in August, it was reported that the Chinese military told Xi Jinping that they were not happy about the CCP’s wolf warrior diplomacy, and they did not want to bear the consequences of the foreign ministry’s wolf warrior diplomacy, or go to war with other countries because of this wolf warrior diplomacy.

So at that time, people were already suspecting that Xi Jinping actually hadn’t gained absolute control over the military.

Xi Jinping Feels Insecure

Also, if we look at Xi Jinping’s own behaviors, we can also draw the conclusion that Xi Jinping feels very, very unsafe. That was why he has not left China or visited any foreign countries for more than 21 months.

Also, inside China, when there were huge natural disasters, he never appeared at the disaster areas to inspect the situation and to lead the disaster relief work. This is very different from his predecessors.

For example, former CCP head Hu Jintao and Chinese premier Wen Jiabao both went to Sichuan after the huge earthquake in 2008.

Of course, when the CCP leaders do these kind of things, people say they are just putting on a show.

But the problem is, Hu Jintao and Wen Jiabao at least put on a show. Xi Jinping didn’t even bother to put on a show.

So from this we know that Xi Jinping really does feel very insecure. Not only police officers, his political enemies inside the politics and law sector want to assassinate him, the military can also go out of control. Otherwise, why would the PLA Daily openly talk about a coup and encourage the military to stay “neutral” and not intervene if a coup does happen?

Well, only 3 days after the article was published, Xi Jinping started to talk about the “orderly transition of power”, much to many people’s surprise.

Well, there is still another year to go until the CCP’s next National Congress. Can Xi Jinping hold on to his power till then? It seems that things are becoming more and more uncertain.

Well, that’s all for today. Thank you very much for watching. Please do subscribe to and share my channel, and tell your friends and families about what you learn from me.

Thank you, see you soon.

我的臺灣鄉愁

2014年12月6日,《自由中國》臺中影院發布會後,曾錚、《自由中國》大使、新唐人《老外看臺灣》、《老外看中國》主持人郝毅博與影迷們的合影。(圖片來源:《自由中國》臉書頁

獻給所有生於臺灣及不曾生於臺灣的同胞們

我是大陸人,生平只去過臺灣兩次,每次停留的時間都沒超過一星期。第一次是2004年初去做《靜水流深》的新書發表,第二次是2014年底,去參加紀錄片《自由中國:有勇氣相信》的影院發布會。

兩次走馬觀花的臺灣體驗,給我留下許多美好的印象和回憶。前兩天在網上看到一篇附有許多圖片的文章《遇見屬於你心中的臺灣》,我不知是被哪句話、哪張圖片觸動了,莫名其妙就開始流淚;當我試圖去理解自己為何被觸動、為何會流淚時,我驚訝的發現:這竟然是一種鄉愁。

是的,鄉愁。

於是我想起了2004年初離境臺灣時的一次「遭遇」。完成了《靜水流深》的新書發表後,我要從桃園機場返回澳洲。

出境時,海關人員依例檢查我的護照,卻發現上面沒有入境章,找來找去就是沒有,工作人員一下子變得非常緊張。

我也萬分緊張起來,拚命在記憶中搜索,但也怎麼也想不清。入境那天,我的出版社和一些熱心幫忙推廣《靜水流深》的人士想安排我趁當時的副總統呂秀蓮去觀看當晚的新唐人全球華人新年晚會時與她見面。為了趕時間,我不知他們用了什麼理由,直接將我從貴賓通道帶出關,沒有去普通的出口排隊,出機場後直接拉上車就走了,留了另一個人替我等行李。

就這樣,我們一路風馳電掣趕到劇場,在那裡我第一次見到了我的出版社老闆沈怡女士(之前都是在電腦上通話),也見了呂秀蓮副總統。接下來數日,就是到各處去出席發布會、接受媒體採訪等,臨走前還被安排拜會了李登輝。整個的行程非常滿,幾天下來仍然有如在夢中的感覺。

由於入境時我一路都被推拉著跑,記憶中根本就想不起來入境章到底蓋沒蓋,或何時蓋、蓋在了哪裡。由於護照上確實沒有,我只能一口咬定,說入境時海關沒給我蓋章。

這一下問題就大了。入境沒有蓋章?好像對海關就成事故了。於是工作人員又找來上司,把我帶到另一個房間,好幾個人對著電腦忙,還不停的跟不同的人通話。

我不知他們忙些什麼,又到底該怎樣解決這個問題。眼看時間一分一秒的過去,我也開始跟他們一樣急出一頭汗來:誤了飛機可怎麼辦?

印象中,大約足足急了四十分鐘,我才突然福至心靈,想起還有一個什麼跟入境簽證相關的檔(或許也就是簽證本身)沒跟護照放在一起,而是放在另一個地方了。

於是我趕緊找出這張文件交給他們。謝天謝地,入境章赫然蓋在這張紙上!

這時,我沒有大鬆一口氣的感覺,而是不由自主地想:因為我忘了這張紙,害他們緊張這麼久、忙了這麼久,他們得怎樣訓斥我?

那時我剛從中國大陸出來不久,從沒去過臺灣,遇到這種事,第一反應很「自然」就是防禦性的:預想自己會挨訓,然後先把頭皮放硬,以便把這頓訓斥「硬頂」過去。在中國生活許多年之後,身體上似乎已經「自然」形成的這種「應激反應」式的機制和機能了。

出乎意料的是,海關官員們絲毫沒有罵我、怪罪我的意思,臉色也一點都沒有變得更難看,而是溫和溫暖的說:「啊,找到了就好,找到了就好,快走吧,別誤了飛機!」

一晃十二年過去了,當我發現臺灣在我心中留下的種種,已經發酵成一種鄉愁時,這一刻的意外和感動,仍然那麼新鮮,在第一時間就湧上心頭。雖然我現在已經明白,對於臺灣的海關人員,那只是他們的「正常」狀態,而對於我這種提著全身的勁兒準備「對抗」責罵的可憐的大陸人來說,那一種不必提勁、不必提防、不必防禦的輕鬆,是多麼的不習慣,又是多麼的令人感動啊。

種種的感動和意外,還有太多太多。

比如,那天見完呂秀蓮、跟她坐在一起看完新年晚會再回到旅館時,已是深夜了,這時才得知行李未能隨機到,據說被誤送到夏威夷去了,要幾天後才能再送回來,可是第二天一大早就是新書發表會,要見記者的,沒有正式的衣服穿可怎麼辦?

深更半夜的,除了沈怡女士拉著我滿大街跑,試圖找到還開著門的商店外,為我的新書寫序的臺大新聞所教授張錦華也漏夜跑到她母親家,試圖從她母親的衣櫃裏扒出幾件我能穿的衣服。

再比如,當我為了能夠出版全球第一部揭露中共對法輪功學員的迫害和勞教所黑幕的長篇紀實文學而不得不拋家舍業,流亡異國,並為此付出九死一生的代價後,我其實並沒有信心能不能找到一家敢出這本書的出版社。要知道,多少實力雄厚的全球性大公司都為了中國十幾億人的大市場而不得不看著中共的眼色行事。

因此,完成寫作後,我只能上網胡亂搜了幾十家臺灣和香港出版社的電子郵箱地址,然後一古腦把書發出去,心想:就算誰也不敢出,至少我給幾十個出版社老闆看到了。當時最大的期望值,只是在網上發表這本書而已。

沒想到,書發出後幾小時內,就收到來自臺灣智慧出版社沈怡女士的回信,她說我郵件中關於書的簡介(coverletter)寫得不錯,但她要看完書後才能判斷這書到底怎樣、值不值得出。

她用一個週末的時間加班加點看完了二十多萬字的書,週一就聯繫我,週二我們就基本達成了出版意向。當時我並不知道她的出版社有多大的實力,只想:她是第一個回覆的,我就給她出,早一分鐘揭露勞教所的黑幕,對我、對上億的還在中國遭受迫害的法輪功學員,都是極其重要的。

後來我才慢慢瞭解到,智慧出版社並不大,而且也有在中國做生意的計畫。但沈怡女士說,身為出版人,身為前記者,遇到用生命寫就、為弱者和正義發聲的書,她不會放棄自己的立場。為此,我深深佩服和感激。

不過,正當我與她商量出書合同細節時,在此之前接到我投稿的《看中國》網站也開始連載我的書了。我立刻將此事告訴她,她的第一反應是:你讓網站把書拿下來。是啊,於她,這是再正常不過的反應:如果網上已經有了,書還怎麼賣?

我說:對不起,我已經答應給人家刊登,君子一言,駟馬難追,不能拿下來,您要是覺得不妥,那書我就不出了,有網絡版就行了。

我當時真是這樣想的,我想書能第一時間從網上傳入中國最重要,有沒有印刷版,我不是最介意,因此心中做好了放棄印刷版的準備。

沒想到,我這樣的「任性」,沈怡女士在沉默一會兒後居然也接受了。她只是說:你能否讓他們連載得慢一點,三個月內,不要超過一半的內容?我保證三個月就把書推上市。

這樣的結果,當然讓我喜出望外,不僅網絡和印刷版都有了,而且還加快了印刷版的出版速度。我沒想到,身軀那樣瘦弱的沈怡女士,能這樣果敢,這樣包容。

關於臺灣的美好記憶,還有許許多多。比如,住在法輪功功友家時,受到的種種無微不至的照顧,包括早上眼一睜開,就已在床邊的美味早餐;比如,在國父紀念館看到的一堆無人照看、卻沒有人怕它們會丟的書包;比如,在人來人往的高鐵站,功友敢於把嶄新的蘋果手機、錢包、鑰匙串都一古腦掏出來放地上,然後閉著眼睛煉功,絲毫不擔心東西會被偷走或搶走……

當然還有各種地方的秩序井然、各種聲調的溫柔臺灣話、夜市裡各種美味的小吃、故宮博物院中的珍寶、服務良好、而便宜得令人吃驚的出租車,以及誤差不超過數秒的便捷的高鐵,還有那些電影院裏排著大隊等著我和《自由中國》的宣傳大使、「老外」郝毅博簽字,讓我非常不適應的當了一把「名人」的單純而熱情的大學生……
本傑明.富蘭克林有句名言:「哪裡有自由,哪裡就是祖國(Wherelibertydwells,thereismycountry)。」曾經,我非常敬佩這種「徹底看透」的境界。曾經,我也認為,為了真理、自由、尊嚴和信念,我願追隨這種境界,我也能超越人所劃分的國籍、民族和種族的界線,天地間四海為家。

因此,當我為揭露迫害、追尋自由,不得不拋棄家園、拋棄國籍時,當中領館趁我父親病危以當特務為條件將回國簽證作為誘餌讓我出賣良心之時,我曾毫不猶豫一次次決絕的斬斷鄉愁。

也因此,在經歷過太多的試圖將鄉愁變為脅迫工具的醜惡、當我以為自己再也不會為鄉愁流淚之時,十二年間未曾留意、但已不自覺間珍藏於心的臺灣和臺灣人民的良善,才能如此意外地逆襲,讓我流下如此滾燙、如此甜蜜、如此清心,卻又慢慢變得如此酸楚、如此令人心痛心悸的鄉愁淚。

但不管怎樣,我想說:

謝謝你,臺灣;謝謝你,我美麗的臺灣鄉愁。
