China tells the US,

中國警告美國

you kids get off my territorial waters!

你們這群小鬼滾出我的領海

Nothing like a little public humiliation

一點點公然羞辱

to encourage people to pay their debts.

最能鼓勵大家還債

And finally Hong Kong just went Hong Wrong...again

最後，香港又出代誌了

This is China Uncensored.

我們是《中國解密》：

Hi, welcome to China Uncensored,

歡迎收看《中國解密》

I'm your host Chris Chappell.

我是主持人 Chris Chappell

In our top story,

今天的頭條新聞

yes China and the US are both concerned

是的，中國跟美國

about North Korea.

都對朝鮮問題感到擔憂

But they're still also maybe slightly worried

不過他們可能也仍然有那麼一點

about each other.

顧忌著彼此

Kind of like when the X-Men

有點像是 X 戰警

have to team up with Magneto

得跟萬磁王合作

to save mutantkind.

拯救變種人

That ends perfectly well, right?

結局很完美不是嗎？

On Tuesday,

本週二

a US warship sailed through the South China Sea,

美國一艘軍艦穿越南海

close to a string of reefs and shoals

通過稱為西沙群島

called the Paracel Islands.

的島礁和沙洲

Now China says those reefs

現在中國聲稱那些島礁

are Chinese territory.

是他們的領土

Vietnam says they're Vietnamese territory.

越南也說那是越南的領土

The US says they're in international waters—

美國說它們位於國際水域

and if you have a problem with that,

如果你對這個說法有什麼問題

come argue with our warship.

過來和我們軍艦談談

The Chinese Communist Party was not pleased.

中國共產黨對此行為感到不悅

And this is a particularly sensitive time.

而現在是特別敏感的時間點

Next week is the 19th Party Congress,

下星期就是中共十九大

a once every five year meeting

這是高階中共領導人

of top Communist Party leaders.

每五年一次的會議

It's a huge propaganda event,

這是場龐大的政治宣傳活動

and the Party likes to look strong.

而且共產黨想表現得很強大

Rise and shine, Xi Jinping!

起床囉，習近平！

I would not want to be the cameraman who filmed that

我絕對不想當錄下這段畫面

and released it to the world.

然後播給全世界看的攝影師

But you know what else

但你知道有什麼可以比

makes the CCP look even weaker

中國核心領導人打瞌睡

than the core leader asleep on the job?

還要來得讓共產黨丟臉嗎？

A US warship challenging their territorial claims.

美國軍艦一如往常地

Like it does on a regular basis.

挑戰中國領土主張

The Chinese regime may not be happy about it.

中國當局對此可能不是很開心

But they'd better play nice,

但他們最好裝得和顏悅色一點

because Donald Trump is coming to town next month.

因為川普下個月就要造訪中國了

Trump is planning to make his first presidential visit there in November.

川普計劃於11月 展開他首次的亞洲行

I'm sure by then the whole sailing a warship

我相信到時候開軍艦

through Chinese-slash-international waters thing

通過中國或國際水域

will have blown over.

事件就會被一筆帶過

That US warship isn't coming back…

美國軍艦暫時不會回來

until probably a month or two after Trump's visit.

大概要等川普拜訪結束後 一到兩個月吧

And on to lighter issues:

來點輕鬆的議題

North Korea's nuclear weapons.

北韓的核子武器

Trump has been trying to pressure the Chinese regime

川普一直試圖向中國當局施壓 [北韓在找碴。如果中國決定要幫忙那當然很好，如果沒有，我們就自己解決！]

to help stop North Korea.

要他們幫忙阻止北韓

Meanwhile, Chinese state-run media is asking

同時，中國官媒則要求

the US and North Korea to just “cool it, ok?”

美國與北韓「冷靜，好嗎？」 [朝鮮半島局勢緊張，中國要美朝冷靜]

But the reason they're asking everyone to calm down

中國要大家冷靜的原因

could be more about the Chinese regime's embarrassment.

可能與他們自身的尷尬很有關係

Because it turns out,

因為原來

they don't have as much power over North Korea

他們對北韓的影響力

as they'd like the world to think they do.

並不如他們希望全世界所想的

But they also don't want the US to invade of North Korea.

但他們也不想要美國侵略北韓

Then China would have the US military

因為這樣一來美軍就會

right up against the Chinese border.

直接開到中國邊界

Plus in the South China Sea.

還有南海上

That's why the Chinese military has been getting...

這就是為什麼最近中國軍隊

a facelift, ahead of the Party Congress.

在十九大以前進行了大改造

I hope it's better than Joan Rivers' facelift.

我希望改造的效果比 瓊·瑞佛斯的整容效果好

Seriously, though -

不過說真的

Chinese leader Xi Jinping has spent the past several years

中國領導人習近平在過去幾年

purging political rivals in the military.

整肅了許多軍中敵對勢力

In fact,

事實上

there's been a huge turnover of top military officials.

軍中高層人員已經有了大變動

Xi's also attempting to transform the PLA

習近平也打算把解放軍改造成

into a streamlined modern military.

精簡的現代化軍隊

This includes becoming a global arms dealer.

這包含成為全球軍武販售商

We'll have more on that later.

這件事我們待會再詳談

But at least when it comes to military drones,

至少談到軍用無人偵察機時

President Trump is looking to counter China.

川普打算對抗中國

China wants to dominate the 10-billion-dollar

中國想要主宰全球產值一百億美元的

global drone market,

無人機市場

but Trump wants to put America first…

但川普在出口無人殺人機方面

in the exporting of killer drones.

想要讓美國優先

“Washington will also seek to renegotiate

「華府也會試圖重新協商 [川普開啟與中國、以色列的無人機出口競賽]

a 1987 missile-control pact

1987 年的飛彈技術管制協定

with the aim of loosening international restrictions

希望放寬國際對美國

on U.S. exports of unmanned aircraft.”

出口無人機的限制」

Whether China is going to be successful

我們還很難看出

at truly transforming their military

中國是否真的能

is hard to tell.

成功改造他們的軍隊

But one thing is clear:

但有一件事情很清楚

It's Taiwan's military that the rest of the world

那就是台灣的軍隊

needs to look out for.

才是全世界其他國家需要關注的

The Chinese Communist Party is no stranger

中國共產黨利用閱兵典禮

to using parades to showcase its military.

展現武力早已司空見慣

But nothing can compare to the parade

但沒有什麼比得上台灣在國慶日

Taiwan just held for its National Day.

舉行的閱兵儀式

I think we all might need a second

我想我們都需要一點時間

to absorb that more fully.

來完整消化一下這段影像

Yes, if ever you wanted more proof

如果你需要更多證據來證明

that Taiwan and China are very different countries,

台灣和中國是截然不同的國家

just think about whether their soldiers

只要想想他們的士兵

look like they want to kill you

是看起來想幹掉你

or choreograph dances with you.

還是想跟你一起跳舞

Speaking of things under threat in China:

說到在中國受到生存威脅的東西

cash.

現金

Gone are the days of paying with paper money,

像死老人一樣

like some old fogey.

用紙鈔付現的日子已經過去了

Or credit cards,

使用信用卡付費

like some loser from the 2000s.

像個活在 2000 年的魯蛇也落伍了

In China,

在中國

it's all the rage now to pay with your mobile phone.

用手機支付正是火紅

“Mobile payment volume in the country

「2016 年中國手機支付總額 [現金在中國名存實亡，中國活在未來使用手機付款]

more than doubled to $5 trillion in 2016.”

翻倍達到五兆之多」

Yes, apparently China found a use for QR codes.

是的，看來中國明顯 替 QR code 找到用途

Why has paying with your phone

為什麼用手機支付

become so popular in China?

在中國會這麼受歡迎？

It could be convenience.

可能是很方便

It could also be

也可能是

that it gives Chinese companies like Tencent,

騰訊之類的中國公司

“access to hordes of personal data.

可以「取得大筆個人資料」

That data can then be shared with the Chinese government.”

然後就可以跟 中國政府共用這些資料

Or maybe it's a little of both.

或許跟這兩點都有些關係

Who says you can't have oppression and convenience?

誰說你不能受到迫害又享有便利

But when talking about convenient payments,

但提到方便付款

you have to talk about the most convenient payment method of all—

一定要提到所有付款方式中 最方便的一種…

not paying.

乾脆別付了

China is plagued by big companies

中國正深受其害

with connections to local governments

許多和地方政府有關係的大公司

running up huge debts and then never paying them back.

大興舉債後就再也不還錢

Well, that's about to change.

不過，當局將做出改變

Haha, not really.

哈哈，開玩笑的啦

But what is changing is how the Chinese regime

不過中國當局正在改變

will go after small time debtors.

如何追討小額欠債人的方式

Down with the underdog!

打死這群落水狗！

Punish the poor!

懲罰窮人！

Prepare to be publically shamed!

準備好被公開羞辱吧！

The CCP has told local authorities

中國共產黨要地方政府

“to establish online platforms to expose debtors

「設立網路平台公開那些

who fail to honor their credit obligations.”

無法履行償還義務的債務人」

For quite some time now,

長久以來

there's been a trend in China of using public humiliation

中國就流行用公開羞辱的方式

to go after individuals who can't pay their debts.

追殺那些還不出錢的人

Billboards that name names.

用廣告看板登出人名

Local officials who will bombard debtors

地方官員電話不斷

with phone messages telling them to pay up.

要欠債人還錢

禁止他們搭飛機

and high speed trains.

還有高速鐵路

Public humiliation, really,

公開羞辱真的是

is a proud tradition of the Chinese Communist Party,

中國共產黨值得驕傲的一項傳統

dating back to the dunce caps

可以追溯至文化大革命

of the Cultural Revolution.

扣帽子的時代

But the days of being humiliated

不過在人群面前被羞辱的日子

in front of a crowd are gone.

已不復存在

Now, you can be humiliated

現在，你可以體驗在整個國家面前

in front of the entire country!

被羞辱的滋味

Because authorities said the online shaming platforms

因為當局說線上羞辱平台

should be “maintained by local news organizations.”

需要「由當地新聞機構管理」

And who needs rule of law

有了媒體審判

when you've got trial by media.

誰還需要法治

In other news,

香港的情勢正在改變

The Chinese regime recently rejected

中國當局最近拒絕承認 [中國稱有關香港的《中英聯合聲明》不再具有意義]

the joint declaration that is the basis for Hong Kong freedoms

建立香港自由基礎 的聯合聲明

denied in the Mainland.

正是此聲明讓香港享有 中國本土所沒有的自由

And of course expelling democratically elected lawmakers

當然民選議員也遭取消資格 [香港高等法院剝奪議員資格]

because the Communist Party doesn't like them.

被香港拒絕入境

Which like many heavy-handed things

就像中共許多

done by the CCP,

高壓手段一樣

will totally not backfire on them.

這種行為絕對不會 回過頭來反咬他們一口

Like by causing huge amounts of negative publicity.

比如引起嚴重負面觀感

Or inspiring Rogers to set up a new NGO

或是促使羅哲思 成立新的非政府組織

that will monitor Hong Kong's human rights situation.

監督香港人權情況

Is it a coincidence that Rogers,

羅哲思，一位「敢於批評中國

在香港提倡民主」的人

and advocating for democracy in Hong Kong”,

在中共十九大前一週

…was stopped at the Hong Kong airport

被拒絕入境香港

just a week before the CCP's 19th Party Congress?

這單純只是巧合嗎？

Not sure,

我不敢肯定

but I have a feeling I won't be able to do any

但我覺得我應該沒辦法在香港

on the ground reporting about it in Hong Kong.

做關於這件事的實地報導了

No?

不要？
