Hong Kong media: "China Connect" in the United States is becoming more and more scarce
Author:Global Times Time:2022.08.02
Hong Kong's "South China Morning Post" August 1 article, original title: For the next generation of Chinese experts in the United States, challenging is not just a language and a 22 -year -old Patrick Belle, a graduate of Chinese research in Ivye University in the United States. All conditions that meet China's career, such as language skills, experience in China, etc. It is not easy to find someone like him. Today, there are more demands about China's professional knowledge than before, but fewer and fewer foreigners want to engage in Chinese research. Belle also faces a challenge: unable to enter China. Belle said: "No face -to -face interaction, understanding China has become a challenge." He visited China in 2016 and 2019, and each time he participated in the weeks of the U.S. State Department for several weeks.
Belle has studied Chinese in the United States since middle school. He wanted to deepen his professional knowledge in Chinese research through a master's degree in a top university in Beijing. The strict entry policy during the epidemic affects almost all foreigners who want to enter China, but due to the nervousness of Washington and Beijing, Americans have been hit particularly great. According to data released by the US International Education Association, only 2,481 American citizens went to China to study in the 2019-2020 school year. This means decreased by 78.7%compared to the previous year, a new low in 10 years.
Debella Seligson, who had served as an environmental technology counselor in the United States Embassy in China, believes that Washington is also responsible. During the Trump administration, many Chinese researchers worried that their relationships with China might make people have an opinion. Public attention is increasingly increasing to China how to endanger US national security. During the Trump era, some well -known American professors were charged with connection with China.
Americans have the opportunity to accumulate extensive and in -depth experience through learning, work or life in China, which helps to cultivate "China Connect" in the US government, private sector and academic circles. US policy makers believe that China is the "most severe competitor" in the United States in the 21st century. Therefore, the Biden government clearly stated that Chinese experts in diplomacy, military and intelligence must grow. But at present young American people have not established their own networks and accumulate experience in China like their predecessors.
Belle, who wants to be a Chinese expert, believes that as long as the language ability is strong, the first -hand life experience in China does not have to be a prerequisite for Chinese affairs experts. However, he also admits that when others are in the United States, the way of viewing to China will change. "When in the United States, attention will turn more sensitive and complex topics. When you study in China, you have more opportunities to focus on Cooperation and development. " (Author Kinling Lo, translated by Chen Junan)
