"Yellow and blue tearing" is undoubtedly a key word in the 2019 anti-amendment turmoil. This is also the two-time Oscar winner for Best Documentary Short, 16 Emmy Award winners, and international hallmark documentary director Malcolm Clarke. The theme I plan to shoot is to record the changes in friendship, love, and family affection among people from different camps.

But when he visited the scene of the conflict and found that the yellow and blue were full of fear for each other, he realized that the incident was far more complicated than the "cowboy and aboriginal dispute" he had seen from mainstream media reports in Europe and the United States, so he decided to compile what he saw into ten episodes. Documentary Hong Kong: The Covered Up (Hong Kong Returns).

The fifth episode focused on the discussion of "Yellow and Blue Tear", and the "Men in Black Attacked the Liaison Office Incident" and "Men in White Yuen Long Attack" that occurred on the evening of July 21 of that year further prompted "binary opposition" Entering the white-hot stage, there is continuous quarrel between lovers, family members, relatives, and friends.


This is the "political dichotomy of our enemy" since the occupation operation in 2014. Those who support the occupiers call themselves "yellow silks" and those who support police enforcement are called "blue silks".

However, after the 79-day occupation, after just five years of recuperation, the scar that tore apart the group with "color politics" not only did not heal, but even became inflamed and festered during the anti-revision turmoil in 2019, leading to "political politics". Germs" are in the bone marrow - people are keen to use color to politicize themselves and others.

Public opinion has also changed from the revision of the "Fugitive Offenders Ordinance" to the "police enforcement controversy". Ke Wensi described "the police are undoubtedly in trouble", and the "yellow and blue tear" disputes have resumed - "Yellow Camp" is dissatisfied with the use of some police officers Disproportionate force and even abuse of law enforcement power to brutally treat demonstrators. As a result, they abused the police from time to time at the demonstration site, or even exchanged insults with the police. The police’s emotions and pressure also reached a critical point. It was reported that some police officers’ family members and children were bullied, Being intimidated in a disguised form made them face more pressure on the scene of law enforcement and it was more difficult to control their excitement; at the same time, the "Blue Camp" formed by established organizations also frequently acted, launching a "Guard Hong Kong" rally on July 20 of that year to support police.

I believe no one could have predicted at that time that the "Men in Black (Yellow Camp) Attack on the Liaison Office of the Central People's Republic of China" and the "Men in White (Blue Camp) Yuen Long Attack" that occurred on the night of the next day (July 21) would lead to the "Yellow-Blue Attack". The "tear" "binary opposition" has entered a white-hot stage, causing continuous quarrels between lovers, family members, relatives, and friends, turning against each other, and cutting off contacts.

Ye Liu Shuyi, the convener of the Executive Council and the New Democratic Party, believes that the incident of "impacting the Liaison Office" will make Beijing think that the protesters are determined to overthrow the SAR government.

Ke Wensi said that while the police were busy dealing with law enforcement operations outside the Liaison Office of the People's Republic of China and various districts on Hong Kong Island, more anti-amendment demonstrators gathered at the Yuen Long Station of the New Territories MTR, and a large number of people outside the station claimed to "defend the homeland". "Villagers in white clothes"; and then a "menacing and black-and-white" fight broke out between the two sides. "Everyone in the subway station and in the carriages became the target", but when citizens called for help, no one answered until the police When they arrived at the scene, the men in white had already evacuated - the men in white were suspected of having a "underworld background", and the police were also suspected of being "deliberately late" and "ignoring atrocities", becoming the eye of this "storm of hatred", even the media. Also hated it.

"Hong Kong is like being shattered," said Christine Lok, the former deputy director of the Environment Bureau, who described herself as a "centrist". The most uncomfortable thing is seeing the people closest to you feel out of control and can't help you, while your relatives and friends are always quarreling with him. Powerless to dissuade, it can be seen that "politics is really a poison buried deep in society, causing a certain degree of mental breakdown."

Ke Wensi accepted an exclusive interview with "Hong Kong 01" earlier, and bluntly expressed his anger at the European and American media's reduction of the anti-amendment turmoil as "a dispute between cowboys and aborigines". Thinking, I also hope that the Hong Kong people who have been torn apart for many times will let go of their prejudices and resolve conflicts.

"Hong Kong 01" is authorized to broadcast "Hong Kong: The Covered Truth", presenting readers with the "dangerous times" in the eyes of the British director.
