Someone has recently deliberately hyped up Sima Nan 's "immigration to the United States" and suddenly brought out an interview video from 2018, which included a scene of Sima Nan publicly admitting to Tang Lin that he bought a house in the United States. Those who attacked Sima Nan said that Sima Nan is hypocritical because he "swears the United States" every day but buys a house in the United States. Isn't this a "two-faced person"?
Sima Nan
In fact, Sima Nan has been disliked by some people in the field of public opinion for many years. The people who attack Sima Nan are mainly liberal arts intellectuals. Liberal arts students are naturally inclined to the "right", and it is natural to hate "left" people like Sima Nan. Of course, there are also science students who don't like Sima Nan, but they are a minority after all.
Is Sima Nan "Left"? Of course it is. But he is different from extreme leftists like Ai Yuejin . He has never opposed reform and opening up. Of course Sima Nan admires great men, but that is because he believes that the theories of great men are indeed very useful in solving social problems, rather than being superstitious. An extreme leftist like Ai Yuejin would have to clean up his name even in those ten years, which is something Sima Nan does not want. Sima Nan once praised Deng Xiaoping's reform and opening up on some occasions, which is very different from those extreme people. Those extreme people always believe that they have lost interests in history, so they completely deny reform and opening up. But Sima Nan's vision is farther than theirs. He is not standing at a specific historical stage, but looking to the future.
Sima Nan did criticize some unfair phenomena on various public occasions, and especially fiercely opposed certain distribution systems and the disorderly expansion of capital, which offended capital. The workers and peasants basically support Sima Nan, which in turn proves which side Sima Nan is on.
Sima Nan did indeed lash out at the United States. There's nothing wrong with that. Many people simply don't understand why Sima Nan criticizes the United States and what aspect of the United States he criticizes.
He is strongly opposed to the American hegemony and the American ideology as the only truth. I have said before that Sima Nan is not an extreme leftist. He does not oppose reform and opening up, so he cannot "knock down everything" like those extreme leftists. Sima Nan once had a private chat with a friend. He said: The United States and other Western countries also have things worth learning and learning from, such as management systems and science and technology.
In other words, Sima Nan is not against "everything in America", but against the toxic part of American culture and system. Specifically, Sima Nan is opposed to the military and political policies formulated and implemented by the White House to oppress third world countries. He has no resistance to the advanced part of the United States.
Sima Nan once told me on WeChat that he had been to the United States 10 years ago and was invited to attend an academic conference. Another important purpose of going to the United States is to help mainland entrepreneurs choose the location to build factories in the United States. Since Sima Nan is willing to help, it shows that he recognizes that the United States has a good investment environment. This is a good quality of a "rational leftist".
As a rational person, Sima Nan never "overthrows everything", but "absorbs the essence and removes the dross". Sima Nan never regarded the American people as heinous "devils". He once said on the show: What I criticize is the US government, and the American people are our friends.
The people who criticized Sima Nan deliberately distorted the facts. Some overseas anti-China organizations deliberately spread rumors. The so-called "Sima Nan said: Anti-American is a job, and going to the United States is a life" are rumors they fabricated in order to arouse everyone's hatred towards him. They deliberately created the impression that
Sima Nan was anti-American at work, but secretly enjoyed himself in the United States.
When the people heard this, they immediately became disgusted with him.
I would like to say that buying a house in the United States is reasonable and not shameful.
Whether it is in the United States or citizens of other countries around the world, there are also American citizens who criticize the policies of the White House.Can’t these citizens buy houses in the United States because they oppose the White House?
Sima Nan also criticized the White House policies. Can’t he buy a house in the United States?
Whether a person is patriotic depends on what he has done. The bottom line is whether he has harmed the interests of his country. I would like to ask, has Sima Nan done anything that harmed the interests of his country?
does not. Not at all.
Did the money Sima Nan use to buy a house come from fraud and corruption? Was it a crime?
is not. It's all clean money.
Let's assume that there is a war between China and the United States. Then it would definitely be inappropriate for Sima Nan to go to the United States to buy a house during the war. But Sima Nan bought a house in 2010. At that time, Sino-US relations were on good terms and not as tense as they are now. So why not go to the United States to invest in real estate?
So, I never think there is anything wrong with Sima Nan buying a house in the United States. The mistake of the United States lies with its White House policies, not with the American people. The White House policy criticized by Sima Nan is not a denial of the United States as a whole. When he bought a house in the United States, he complied with national laws and ethics. He also frankly admitted the facts and was worthy of being an upright gentleman.
This is how I see it: Sima Nan publicly admitted that buying a house in the United States is a good thing. Great thing.
Sima Nan told me very early on that some dark maggots wanted to talk about his buying a house in the United States and "immigrating his whole family" every day. If you deliberately hide the matter of buying a house for the sake of "personality", once it is exposed, it will be unsightly and even more popular. Just like Liu Mouhua and other artists once did not dare to disclose that they were married. Whether to get married or not is a private matter, which is reasonable and legal, but some celebrities dare not make it public for the sake of popularity. Once caught in the act by the paparazzi, it will only incur even more dissatisfaction from fans. Now that Sima Nan admits it directly and openly, not only will it not affect his image, but it will prevent some people from making trouble about it again. Therefore, Sima Nan admitted that buying a house in the United States is not an "ugly thing" but a good thing, and the sooner he explains it, the better.
