Hua Chunying is a name that has attracted much attention in China and the world. Since 2012, as the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of our country, Hua Chunying has always been active on the podium of the press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and left a deep impression on the people of the world. In the face of many prejudices and attacks on China, Hua Chunying can always give "domineering" and "sharp" counterattacks, and in equal and friendly exchanges, she can release the sincerity and goodwill of China as a big country.
In December 2017, the Chinese giant panda "Xiangxiang" visited the Ueno Zoo in Japan. At a regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a Japanese reporter asked Hua Chunying in English how he would evaluate "Xiangxiang" in Japan Unexpectedly, Hua Chunying replied with a serious expression: "We hope that Japan and China can meet each other halfway, and properly handle related issues in accordance with the four-point principled consensus between China and Japan and the four joint documents.

Hua Chunying's answer is not what I asked, it sounds strange. It turned out that because the Japanese reporter's English pronunciation was very substandard, Hua Chunying mistakenly heard "Xiangxiang" as "Sugiyama", the undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan, and then answered the question in a serious manner. Under the reminder of other reporters, Hua Chunying quickly realized this oolong, so she laughed heartily and explained that she had misheard, and the tension was suddenly relieved by her. Hua Chunying’s smile even made a lot of fans in Japan, saying “Hua Chunying is super cute”, “Even I don’t know about Shanshan from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but this person knows that it’s great”, similar to praise like this Hua Chunying's messages have appeared on Japanese online forums.
Hua Chunying
In January 2021, in Washington, U.S., demonstrators occupied Congress and attempted to violently interfere with the results of the presidential election, causing 4 deaths and more injuries. At the time, US Secretary of State Pompeo Regardless of a fire in his backyard, he still talks to himself, just gesticulating about China. In this regard, Hua Chunying quoted the popular "Kuankou" on the Internet at the press conference. She pointedly pointed out: "If the United States sees what the United States is doing to the United States, the United States will definitely condemn the United States and encourage other people from the United States. Liberation of the United States in hand.I think Mr. Pompeo should think about it, how to declare sanctions on himself? "Hua Chunying's pungent irony has exposed the hypocrisy and double standards of "American values."
and other famous scenes, in the years when Hua Chunying served as the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, there are countless. Hua Chun With her aura of strength and softness, Ying shines on the diplomatic stage, sending a diplomatic signal that China is benevolent with its neighbors and is awe-inspiring.
It is hard to imagine that such a person makes foreign media say "no". A woman who is so annoying, she was a quiet and shy girl when she was a child. Hua Chunying was born in a cadre family in Huaizhou, Jiangsu. Her father was the former secretary of the Huaiyin County Commission for Discipline Inspection and her mother was the former vice chairman of the Political Consultative Conference of Qinghe District, Huai'an City. Hua Chunying followed her mother's surname Hua, while her sister had her father's surname Qian. According to Gao Congping, the head teacher of Hua Chunying's middle school, Hua Chunying used to live in the county committee family compound, separated from Huaiyin County by a wall. At that time, the students in Huaiyin County Middle School were all top students selected from the whole county. Many of them came from the countryside. Although Hua Chunying came from a family of cadres, she was dressed plainly and decently, with short hair, and her speech and demeanor were easy and generous. There is no "superiority" of cadres and children. Although Hua Chunying is usually very simple, she can often see an atmosphere that is rare in ordinary girls. Hua Chunying has been calm and considerate since she was a child. She is a very sunny girl.
In high school, Hua Chunying served as the secretary of the school, the secretary of the class league branch and the chairman of the school student union, and she also has the ability to plan and host large-scale activities. During her time at school, she organized many speeches Teachers and classmates are most impressed by campus activities such as meetings and recitation competitions. What impressed the teachers and classmates most was that Hua Chunying, who likes to play football, advocated holding a football match between boys and girls in the sprint stage before the college entrance examination to relieve the tension before the exam. But it was opposed by the teacher. In the end, Hua Chunying secretly organized the competition without telling the teacher.

His love for sports and being a student cadre did not affect Hua Chunying's academic performance. In the 1988 college entrance examination, Hua Chunying was admitted to the Department of Foreign Languages of Nanjing University with the first place in the county. After entering the university, Hua Chunying felt unprecedented pressure. Hua Chunying’s intensive reading teacher, Jin Zhuyun, recalled from Nanjing University. “In my impression, Hua Chunying’s studies at that time were not among the best, that is, the upper-middle class, but she was very independent and independent. Strong, study harder," Mr. Jin said here and was very emotional, "Many successful people were not the best in school at the time, but they had potential and perseverance. Like Hua Chunying, such a quiet one. The little girl has now become a witty, quick and calm spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.” For Hua Chunying, who has just entered Nantah, the biggest problem she faces is her poor oral English. Although she has been studying hard, In the northern county of Jiangsu in the 1980s, educational resources were limited after all. At Nantah, Hua Chunying, who refused to admit defeat, practiced hard to make up for her shortcomings. In the end, her oral English was greatly improved at a speed visible to the naked eye. In her sophomore year, she was already able to speak fluent and standard English.
Because of being kind to others, Hua Chunying was still in the university and gained the nickname "Winter Jasmine". The three words "Hua Chunying" are read upside down, which means "Ying Chunhua", which is a homophonic "welcoming spring flower". The students think it matches her image and temperament very well. Moreover, Hua Chunying’s birthday is in April, which is the season when winter jasmine blooms. Hua Chunying’s teacher recalled: "Hua Chunying impressed me very much. She has a quiet, gentle and polite personality. Whenever she sees Hua Chunying, she is always quiet and dressed in plain clothes. She was very peaceful when she laughed.” Zhou Dandan, who had been a roommate with Hua Chunying for 4 years, also recalled: “There are many beautiful girls in the foreign language department. Hua Chunying is not the kind of dazzling and shiny, but the temperament is very good, very quiet. Mature and generous in dealing with others.” In the past 20 years, Zhou Dandan felt that Hua Chunying had not changed much, except that she didn’t wear glasses, and her eyes looked more beautiful and enlightened.
Zhou Dandan also revealed a little "secret" in the girls' dormitory: college girls are at their youthful age, and they often hold sleep parties after turning off the lights to communicate with each other about emotional problems, life troubles, etc. Hua Chunying always Help analyze, come up with ideas, speak well,The roommates all agreed. However, in terms of feelings, Hua Chunying is a "purely theoretical school". She is the only one among the eight people in the dormitory who has not been in a relationship for four years in college. The classmates all said that she was ambitious, "She spent all her time studying, she was very serious in her study, and remembered her notes very carefully." And Hua Chunying did not disappoint her classmates. When she graduated from university, Hua Chunying was volunteering "Ministry of Foreign Affairs" is written in the book, which means that there will be fierce competition waiting for her. At that time, only four students were recruited into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs among the last NTU graduates, and they were all boys. In Hua Chunying's current term, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs recruited only one of her.
Hua Chunying was recruited to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Since entering the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 1993, Hua Chunying started as a staff member of the Department of Western Europe and served as the Third Secretary, Deputy Director, and European Department Counselor, he was sent out twice during the period, stationed in Singapore for 5 years, and stationed in the European Union for 8 years. Since 2012, Hua Chunying has served as the Deputy Director of the Information Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and became the fifth female spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is busy with heavy responsibilities. Hua Chunying’s teacher said: “Since she went to work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, she seldom goes back to her hometown and her alma mater.” During the Spring Festival of 2003, Hua Chunying returned to Huaiyin for the New Year. Her classmates once held a party for a total of 20 years. Several teachers and classmates, Hua Chunying brought two bottles of wine, which was a good wine issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Whenever a classmate talked about a classmate or teacher's family having difficulties, Hua Chunying couldn't help crying as she listened. In 2008, the 20th anniversary of Hua Chunying's graduation, the students held a 20th anniversary party in Huai'an. Hua Chunying, who was far away in Europe at the time, could not attend, so she could only send a fax to congratulate teachers and classmates. Hua Chunying's mother also said that her daughter did not go home very often in recent years. She also learned that her daughter had become the new spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs through news reports.
In 2019, Hua Chunying "disappeared" after Valentine's Day. This incident attracted wide attention from domestic and foreign media and netizens. On February 14th, Hua Chunying presided over the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Within half a year after that, Hua Chunying disappeared from public view. The "Diplomatic Mission" originally composed of three diplomats ,Only two people, Lu Kai and Geng Shuang, "worked hard overtime". So, where did Hua Chunying go? In July, a sharp-eyed reporter found an article signed by Hua Chunying in the "Study Times"-"Occupy the Moral Commanding Heights, Enhance International Discourse Power". The author's information is marked at the end of the article: "Central Party School, the first class of junior high school students". It turned out that Hua Chunying had participated in the training course for young cadres since March 2019. After completing her studies in July, Hua Chunying was promoted to the Director of the Information Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and became the leader of the "Diplomatic Mission".
Hua Chunying's article
Open Hua Chunying's article, we can read her insights in the course of years of diplomatic work and the results of her studies in the party school. The article focuses on the structural weakness of China's international discourse power. The West has been creating international public opinion to suppress and discredit China, but our own voice is far from loud enough. In some foreign online forums, foreigners often ask questions about whether there are cars, high-speed rail, computers, and the Internet in China? This is obviously a one-sided influence of Western discourse and a lack of understanding of the true situation in China. Hua Chunying pointed out that the weakness of our country’s discourse power cannot be changed overnight. “The increase in economic power is a necessary condition for the promotion of discourse power, but it cannot be converted immediately and naturally.” Therefore, we must continue to work hard to narrow the discourse power of the West. This is also the goal that Hua Chunying and Chinese diplomats have been struggling with.
In the face of some countries that habitually slander China, but do not allow China to speak up on the international stage, a group of Chinese diplomats such as Hua Chunying responded sharply and happily to their double standards. In November 2020, the rumors of the massacre and abuse of civilians by the Australian military in Afghanistan could not be covered. The Australian Ministry of Defence issued an investigation report, acknowledging that the atrocities of massacre and abuse of civilians did exist. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian posted a tweet citing the satirical work "The Division of Peace" by the young Chinese painter Wuhe Qilin, expressing his shock and condemnation of the atrocities committed by Australian soldiers. "The Division of Peace" depicts an Australian soldier holding a bloody sharp knife against a child's throat. The Australian soldier has a grin on his face and the Australian flag is spread on the ground.Covering the body of the victim, the picture also says: "Don't be afraid, we will bring you peace." Zhao Lijian’s tweet immediately triggered an attack by Australian Prime Minister Morrison. He said that the content posted by Zhao Lijian was "fake photos" and was "outrageous", asking Twitter to delete the relevant content, and even threatened "the Chinese government." Should be ashamed of the publication of this post, which devalued their image in the eyes of the world" and also demanded an apology from China.
"The Teacher of Peace"
When Hua Chunying hosted a regular press conference, the reporter asked her any comments on this matter. Hua Chunying said: "The facts and truths of this matter It is so clear that there are people who claimed to be "fake photos" and were shocked. I was shocked by their words and deeds. Some Australian soldiers committed serious crimes in Afghanistan. This has been confirmed by the Australian Department of Defense report." After using facts to smash the contradictory lies of Australian politicians, Hua Chunying further exposed the hypocrisy of Western countries' long-standing claims of "human rights", "fairness" and "justice." Hua Chunying emphasized: "Any crime that kills innocent lives and tramples on the conscience of mankind, no matter who committed it or which country committed it, should be resolutely opposed and condemned by people with conscience in the international community. This is human rights. This is fairness, and this is justice."
At the press conference, an Australian journalist from the British Broadcasting Corporation BBC repeatedly asked questions about China’s condemnation of the Australian army’s atrocities, and set a trap in the question. . The BBC reporter first asks: According to Australian media reports, the soldiers involved have been removed from their duties, investigated, and some will go to jail. What measures does China want to see the Australian government take? On the surface, this reporter is asking about China's attitude, but in fact this question is sinister, hoping to use China's answer to accuse China of "interfering in other countries' internal affairs." But Hua Chunying was not fooled. She replied: "The Australian government should be a mature government, and they should know how to properly handle this terrible incident." Seeing that Hua Chunying did not fall into the pre-designed trap. The reporter did not give up. Sure enough, in the next question, the BBC reporter asked: "China has always stated that it will not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.I also hope that other countries will not interfere in China's internal affairs. The Australian military incident does not involve China, but Australia and Afghanistan. Does China's response represent a change in the attitude of the Chinese government? Can we deny that China will also express its views on other issues that do not directly involve China in the future? "_Span2span
Hua Chunying answered the reporter's question
Facing the reporter's pressing step by step, Hua Chunying cleverly leveraged her strength, she replied: "Your question is not like the BBC's usual practice. Style, are you so concerned about this issue because you are Australian? Prior to this, many of the so-called human rights cases in China that were fabricated and did not exist, the unnecessarily "criminal", Australia and the United Kingdom, where the BBC headquarters are located, have not hesitated to stand up and make various accusations against China. This time, some Australian soldiers committed brutal crimes in Afghanistan. There is hard evidence that even the Australian Ministry of Defence's investigation report has clearly admitted. This issue is no longer an internal affair of any country. It should be strongly condemned by all conscientious people all over the world. Don't you feel this way? Do you think the crimes committed by these Australian soldiers should not be condemned? Don't you think that Prime Minister Morrison and the Australian government should be questioned whether there is no right or wrong on this issue? Do you think China condemns some Australian soldiers for committing brutal crimes in Afghanistan? This issue is related to human rights, but does it have anything to do with internal affairs? "Hua Chunying's series of rhetorical questions, telling facts and presenting evidence, forced BBC reporters to change their tone and repeatedly emphasized that "everyone hates" the atrocities of the Australian army, and she does not defend this matter. The title of Hua Chunying's article reads, "Occupy the moral commanding heights." Hua Chunying's speech stood from the standpoint of human civilization's right and wrong. People with ulterior motives should not use the excuses of "international relations" and "national internal affairs" to divert their attention. _Span2span
In the next answer, Hua Chunying said: “I hope that the media, including the BBC, will not only point their cameras at China when talking about human rights issues in the future, and “pull the bones in the egg”. Turn a blind eye to, turn a blind eye, remain silent, or selectively silence the violations of human rights in Western countries. Hua Chunying’s words reveal that Western countries are disregarding the facts,The real purpose of attacking China: They want to draw the attention of international public opinion to China, so as to cover up their crimes as much as possible.
Hua Chunying answered questions from reporters
After Australian Prime Minister Morrison attacked Ughe Kirin’s paintings as "fake photos," the young painter was pushed to the forefront of the storm in response. , He created a new work "To Morrison". In the picture, the thin young man in Red Riding Hood stands in front of the canvas, solitary facing the spears of various media. On the right, a man resembling Morrison desperately accused the artist, and the caption at the bottom of the picture read: "Apologize!" However, apart from the Red Riding Hood painter, neither the man shouting "apology" nor the reporter holding a long or short video camera, no one paid attention to the battlefield filled with smoke behind him. Some netizens said: "Hua Chunying's sentence", should not just aim the camera at China" This sentence gave Wuhe Qilin the inspiration for his creation. "In fact, whether it's Hua Chunying's speech or the paintings of the black unicorns, they are yelling and aiming their cameras at the places they should pay attention to.
"To Morrison"
last year In December, the U.S. threatened to impose sanctions on the system of public officials swearing loyalty to the country. A reporter from Reuters asked Hua Chunying for her comments on this matter. Whether it is the BBC or Reuters, Hua Chunying knows nothing about the mouthpiece media of these Western countries. After solemnly declaring China's principles and positions, she said: "I also want to take this opportunity to say a few more words, and hope Reuters can also fully report it. It is an international practice for public officials to swear allegiance to the national system. According to statistics, among the 193 member states of the United Nations, 177 countries have clearly stipulated the oath system for national public officials in their constitutions. In the United States, members of Congress must be loyal to the US Constitution; in the United Kingdom, anyone who refuses to be loyal to the Queen will not be able to serve as a member. No country will turn a blind eye to the violation of oaths and betrayal of the country by public officials, including parliamentarians. In fact, as far as I know, in the history of the U.S. Congress and the British House of Commons, more than 20 and more than 50 members were disqualified because they violated parliamentary rules, held dual nationality, or treason.The unwarranted accusations made by the United States and other countries against China on this issue have fully exposed their double standards. "After the press conference, Reuters reported on China’s response, but only mentioned that China will take resolute countermeasures. Neither the English version nor the Chinese version of Reuters’ news cited Hua Chunying. Hua Chunying’s remarks made people with the concept of right and wrong in the world see some countries and the media’s abuse of their right to speak and the hegemonic implementation of double standards. At the same time, Western media has nowhere to hide the arbitrarily tailored news, selective reporting, and selective silence.
As Li Zhaoxing, the former Chinese Minister of Foreign Affairs, said: "The Ministry of Foreign Affairs speaks. People are both people and not people. This is because the speaker represents a mechanism. The spokesperson is a spokesperson. What he says does not represent himself, but represents the government. In this sense, the spokesperson is not a "person" in the general sense. "A good spokesperson needs quick thinking, eloquent eloquence, rich knowledge, and good affinity. It also needs to fully understand the country’s foreign policy, grasp the trends in international relations, and have enough courage and wisdom to resolve the oncoming The slander and trap. Hua Chunying, she used to be a polite and quiet girl on campus, a school girl who studied hard at Nanjing University, a capable and assertive class leader, and a good listener and friend The “Welcome Spring Flower” to solve problems. Today, she is a diplomat representing China on the world stage. In the face of kindness, she is gentle and hearty, which is like a spring breeze; in the face of malice, Her words are loud and loud, highlighting the inviolable majesty of China. This is the Chinese diplomats. They speak for China and are the people’s microphone. They defend the dignity of the motherland with faith and wisdom.
