In many years to come, when historians began to narrate the twenty-first century, they tended to use September 11, 2001, as a starting point.

911 completely changed people, especially Americans, in their basic judgment of the world, and Newsweek saw 911 as a sign of the end of an age of innocence.

In the past decade, with the collapse of the Soviet Union and the discoloration of Eastern European countries, people have emerged from the Iron Curtain of the Cold War, and a new international order with global commercialism at its core and economic development as its main theme has begun to take shape. Every country is adapting to this new reality, with countries that used to be proud of their ancient civilizations now vying to become emerging markets, and the glamorous grandholds of superpower summits and even the United Nations General Assembly have given way to the World Economic Forum in Davos, which takes place every year in Switzerland.

The forces that drive history no longer seem to be wars, ideologies, and power politics, but economics, capital, and technology.

However, the onset of 911 abruptly interrupted all of this, heralding in an extreme way the birth of a new form of warfare – the war of terror, in which terrorist organizations became a non-state force with significant implications for international security. The global political landscape has fallen back into chaos and remains unresolved to this day.

The World Bank said in its annual World Development Report that when the ideological war has just ended, the East and the West have once again engaged in a confrontation based on differences of religious opinion, which will have a more far-reaching impact on the global economy.

During this period of time, Fan Wuxian has been closely following the reactions of the domestic and foreign media, as well as the reactions of the people.

Whether it is in newspapers and magazines or on Internet forums, Chinese people have made many comments on the 911 incident, and their views are-for-tat and do not give in to each other. One is applauding 911 and gloating over the Americans who died in 911. The other sharply condemned the crimes of the terrorists and expressed sympathy for the Americans who were tragically killed in the incident.

Since then, with the development of the United States to combat terrorism, the views of the Chinese people on ** and its al-Qaeda and the Taliban have been completely divided into two factions, one faction has tried their best to support ** and the Taliban, and some people even call ** comrades, and they angrily denounce the United States for invading Afghanistan. The other group of people firmly supports the United States to overthrow the Taliban regime and arrest **.

However, Fan Wuxian also noticed another point, that is, after the 911 incident, the attitude of the governments of the world was not different, including many Arab countries, no government dared to publicly applaud the 911 incident, and there was no government that did not severely condemn the crimes of terrorists.

This fact in itself is enough to show that applauding 911 is untenable and will not be brought to the table.

First of all, the hijacking of a civilian airliner by terrorists and the ramming of the World Trade Center Tower is itself a criminal act against international law. It is undeniably simple that no responsible government can support such criminal acts. The events of 911 have resulted in the deaths of innocent civilians, and no responsible government can fail to condemn such horrific crimes. If such criminal acts are openly encouraged and supported, there will be no peace in the world, and this will inevitably bring extremely serious consequences to the peoples of the world.

The argument held by those who applauded 911 was that the United States was too arrogant and had done so many bad things, and that it should be punished.

Yes, the U.S. government has done a lot of bad things.

Especially after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the world moved towards unipolarity, and the United States became the sole superpower. It seems to regard itself as the world's policeman, and it has reached out everywhere to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. Originally, after the collapse of the Warsaw Pact, NATO would have no reason to exist. However, instead of disbanding, NATO continued its eastward expansion, especially the US-led NATO's bombing of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and the bombing of the Chinese embassy in Yugoslavia, aroused the strong hatred of the Chinese people.

The United States was attacked by terrorists, and many Chinese felt a bad breath, which is understandable. However, the bad things done by the US government should not be blamed on the American people, nor should all Americans be regarded as enemies. Just as the Japanese right-wing has repeatedly visited the Yasukuni Shrine, many people hate the Japanese to the core, and some netizens have made many fierce remarks on the Internet, clamoring for a Tokyo massacre, and so on. This view is one-sided, and it is even more harmful.

The fundamental mistake of terrorists is to target ordinary Americans.

Their hijacking of civilian airliners, treating the lives of innocent passengers as child's play, and forcing innocent passengers to be their victims, should clearly not be supported.

In our attitude toward the 911 incident, we should not just rely on personal feelings, likes and dislikes, and ignore the moral standards that human beings should have.

Some people also say that the United States has killed so many innocent civilians in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, and several Americans deserve to be killed. This statement is specious. In a word, what the US government has done cannot be counted on the heads of ordinary Americans. It's another matter if terrorists attack the US White House or the Pentagon with human bombers instead of hijacking civilian airliners.

Of course, this is obviously more difficult, although many people want to, but I'm afraid it's hard for anyone to do it.

Moreover, from the point of view of the terrorists, they do not deserve sympathy and support.

As we all know, both the ** and the Taliban were originally supported by the United States, which supported them against the former Soviet Union. The reason why they want to attack the United States is because they are an extreme religious force that has led Islam astray according to their own understanding of Islam. They advocated the restoration of the world of the founding of Islam and the violent eradication of all heresies that were incompatible with Islam.

It is precisely because of this that they regard the United States, which has the highest level of modern civilization, as their first target of attack, so they are in essence a group of extremists who oppose modern civilization and advocate backwardness and retrogression. One only has to look at what the Taliban have done to see their ***, anti-civilizational nature.

Under the extreme rule of the Taliban, the people have been deprived of all freedoms, not even the right to watch television, and it is not difficult to see from the Taliban's crime of destroying the Bamiyan Buddhas how much they hate all pagan religions that are different from Islam.

However, when Fan Wuxian checked the online comments, he found that the guidance of public opinion in China is too bad, many problems lack effective means of channeling, and the attention to some key issues is also very poor, so that many issues that have caused heated discussions on the Internet are nothing more than rough and barbaric abuse battles, which is called online battles, in fact, it seems very naïve and ridiculous.

On this issue, Fan Wuxian raised it again when he met several high-level officials to discuss the impact of the 911 incident in the United States on the international economy.

"It's a real issue that needs attention." Chief One nodded.

In fact, the attitude of the central government towards the new thing of the Internet is not very consistent, and it is obviously a bit of a mistake to treat the rapidly developing Internet with the attitude of taking a look and talking about it, especially in some aspects, it seems that the control is relatively weak, and some unexpected things are prone to occur.

Several executives have commented on this, and all of them have expressed dissatisfaction with the current publicity work.

"So, are there any good candidates?" Someone asked.

It happened suddenly, and for a while, everyone didn't think of any suitable candidate in their hearts, so they all fell silent.

Fan Wuxi sat next to him and said casually, "Actually, with all due respect, it seems that the propaganda work in Shanghai is doing quite well." ”

As soon as his words came out, there was a moment of calculation in the hearts of several people present, after all, Chief No. 1 and Boss Zhu are both leaders from Shanghai, and it is naturally impossible to say that they are not interested in promoting local cadres in Shanghai. Moreover, there is another point, that is, Shanghai's propaganda work has indeed been done well, is flexible and organized, and has not affected the development of normal work, but also embodies its function as the main window of reform and opening up.

"Who is in charge of the propaganda work in Shanghai?" Chief No. 1 asked.

Someone immediately replied, "Tong Yushan, a local cadre in Shanghai, who was promoted from the grassroots level, has served as a district head, and has just been promoted to a deputy ministerial-level cadre for a few years. ”

"Oh-" Chief No. 1 nodded, and then said, "Then my opinion, why don't you transfer him to the central government to take charge of propaganda work for a while?" ”

"That's fine." Boss Zhu glanced at Fan Wuxian and nodded, but there was no too rich expression, in fact, he was clear about the relationship between the Fan family and Tong Yushan's family, but he didn't avoid relatives, Fan Wuxian just casually brought up this matter, and immediately someone thought of Tong Yushan, but it can't be said that Fan Wuxian interfered with the political decision at the highest level.

Besides, even if Fan Wuxian is selfish on this issue, it is human nature, as long as Tong Yushan can really do a good job in propaganda work, then there is no problem, everything else is very simple.

In any case, Tong Yushan's promotion to the Central Committee is a decision, but considering that he has not been promoted to the deputy ministerial level for a long time, the No. 1 leader suggested that he be transferred to the Propaganda Department as a deputy minister first, but he can enjoy the treatment of a full minister.

After Fan Wuxian heard the news, he had an indifferent expression, but he was happy in his heart, after all, his father's power in the central government was inferior, and this time he pulled Tong Yushan over, which can be regarded as a small supplement, if Tong Yushan really took charge of the propaganda work in the future, it would still be of great help to Fan Heng.
