The National Security Department of the police recently arrested 7 former directors and senior officials of "Stance News". In addition to Di Zhiyuan, 89 legislators-elects jointly issued a statement in support of police enforcement and questioned how "Stance" holds 61 million yuan in assets.
Tian Beichen explained that his participation in the co-signing was based on independent thinking, not blind support. "I have finished watching this part. I asked myself if I have a reason to support it and why I should not sign." After examining it word by word, "All I can't see why I don't sign."
Tian revealed that the co-
signing
was initiated by someone in a communication group of all 90 parliamentarians, and there is no pressure to participate.
He also said that he did not believe that the arrest would harm the freedom of the press, but would have a positive effect on clarifying the boundaries of the freedom of the press under the "Hong Kong National Security Act."

Tian Beichen accepted an interview with Emily Liu, former chairman of the Democratic Party today (31st), and claimed that he cherishes press freedom most, "because press freedom puts me at the top." He said that because of his rational political line, he received media support and gained exposure. "I got the most votes today because I have never been wrong with the media all the way." But he himself doesn't know the boundary of the press freedom under the "Hong Kong National Security Act". The "Stance" case is now in judicial proceedings. The court will have an opinion on whether its reports and articles constitute "inciting hatred to the government." "From now on, everyone will know what the bottom line is. There are precedents that should be positive for other media to exercise their freedom!"
Regarding the government's intention to legislate on "fake news," Tian Beichen agrees that it is necessary, "To ignore fake news at all, it is because Hong Kong is torn apart today." He emphasized that attention should be paid to how the legislative provisions can be made. To protect the freedom of the press, he also pointed out that a predecessor once told him that "there will never be the same in this world, one is black and the other is white, and most of them are gray." At best, it is only a difference in degree.
Tian Beichen stated that Chief Executive Carrie Lam once named him at a closed-door dinner for criticizing the government the most. "No matter how I look at the government, I feel that I am the most criticized establishment member."

Xia Baolong "mixed one color" on the field: I thought I was tight
I was asked if there are no democrats in the parliament under the new electoral system. Are the 90 members of the council sufficiently representative?
Tian Beichen stated that Xia Baolong, director of the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office, once said, "Don't mix all colors, but mix all colors." "When I heard about mixing colors, I thought I was tight." The government has the most.
Tian Beichen believes that he is still "a few dozen years old" and still serves as an elected member of the Council. The purpose is to monitor the government. "If you are a representative of speculation, the representative must be nominated by citizens to elect the chief executive, so I can't represent you. If you are not, please explain. Can I represent you?" He emphasized that he had proposed in the Legislative Council the "Privilege Act" to invite government officials, MTR and various contractors to respond to the quality problems of the MTR Shazhong Line and To Kwa Wan Station.
Tian Beichen believes that if there is a credible investigative agency to investigate social disputes, he will welcome it at any time. He also pointed out that if it does not do it, it will only make the two sides more torn, and it will not be beneficial in the long run.

Zhang Xiaoming stated that he would not conduct an independent investigation during the period of recollecting the amendment
As for his public request for the government to set up an independent investigation committee on the anti-revision case, Tian Beichen believes that there is a credible investigative agency to investigate social controversies and he will welcome it at any time. There is no benefit.
Tian Beichen emphasized that no matter what the outcome of the investigation is, one cannot criticize the judge's decision.
When asked about Lam Cheng’s criticism of making relevant suggestions that day, the MPs should apologize. Tian Beichen pointed out that in August the previous year, Zhang Xiaoming, the current deputy director of the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office, met with them and emphasized that a committee would not be set up at the moment. To deal with it, it will be difficult to repair the tear.
