2025 Nobel Prize in Literature leaving Chinese audiences greatly disappointed

[gxnn]

Chinese readers have waited for several nights, and some enthusiasts have even drafted acceptance speeches in advance for a Chinese writer who they believed must be the winner, yet they did not end up winning the Nobel Prize in Literature that they were so eager for.

Chinese people have a special complex about the Nobel Prize. They yearn for recognition from the world, especially the Western world, but on the other hand, they are unwilling to acknowledge some universal values, which makes them very conflicted. Especially after Japanese people have won various Nobel Prizes one after another year after year, Chinese people have been deeply stimulated and find it hard to accept compared with a small country.

However, when Nobel laureates actually belong to mainland China, they have not really received acceptance from the relevant mainstream circles. For example, Mo Yan, the Nobel Literature Prize winner in 2012, did not receive personal commendation from the official authorities, nor was there a grand ceremony to welcome this record-breaking writer. Another Nobel laureate, Tu Youyou, who has been awarded the highest honor in the world of science, was not eligible for membership in China's domestic academicians selection, which has become an even bigger joke.

Shit can the CCP, establish a true functioning government responsible to the people and things will change.

Hello, I think you'd better stick to the point.

To start by negating a political party and everything it has done without conducting any investigation or analysis is not scientific, and the statements made in this way are hard to convince others.

I suppose much of the information you have comes from television and the internet in your country, not first-hand news. How do you verify that every statement made by those media outlets is true and objective?

Didn't your country's president Donald Trump criticize a group of TV stations dominated by the Democratic Party yesterday? It shows that every media outlet has its financial backers; once they take money from someone, they have to do things for that person.

As the Chinese saying goes, 'When you receive money from others, you help them eliminate disasters.' 'One's mouth is short when one eats from another's hand, and one's hands are short when one takes from another.'

I should have more authority to speak about the situation in my country China. Look at your country the United States of America—can it be considered in a normal state as a nation should be now? Government agencies have all shut down, and so many flights have been canceled. How dare you lecture others? Do you want to be the Emma Watson who tries to teach a lesson to JK Rowling?

If your government were really given the responsibility to manage 1.4 billion people, who knows what kind of chaos would ensue?

The liberal Western tradition doesn't view it as the role of government to 'manage' the populace. Key difference there.
