迪士尼在香港删除《辛普森一家》提及中国劳改营的一集|金融时报

  • 迪士尼在香港的流媒体平台上删除了《辛普森一家》中提到中国 "强制劳动营 "的一集。

  • 这是从该服务中删除的第二集,第一集是提到1989年天安门广场大屠杀的一集。

  • 这一集是由迪士尼拥有的第20电视动画制作的。

  • 北京在2020年对城市实施了一项全面的国家安全法,禁止广泛定义的犯罪。

  • 作为对政治反对派和公民社会的镇压的一部分,该剧集在香港的流媒体平台上被删除。

  • 这是由于中国政府认为内容不合适而被从该服务中删除的第二集。

  • 最新的《辛普森一家》剧集 "愤怒的丽莎 "中,有一个场景提到了中国的人权侵犯行为,包括强迫劳动和拘留营。

  • 中国面临着对新疆地区的维吾尔族和其他主要是穆斯林的少数民族进行虐待的指控,联合国将这些指控称为 “反人类罪”。

  • 香港浸会大学电影学院副教授Kenny Ng认为,迪士尼可能是出于对其在中国大陆业务的考虑而删除了这一情节。

  • 2021年,《辛普森一家》中讽刺北京对1989年天安门大屠杀的镇压的一集被从香港的Disney Plus流媒体平台上删除,迪斯尼被指控自我审查。

  • 这一集的内容是参观天安门广场,广场上有一个牌子,上面写着 “1989年,在这个地方,什么都没有发生”,荷马-辛普森称前中国共产党主席毛泽东为 “小天使”,杀害了数百万人。

  • 此举更多的是与该公司在中国大陆的关系,包括现在和未来的关系有关。

  • 香港政府在回应评论请求时说,2021年推出的电影审查制度禁止电影危害国家安全,“不适用于流媒体服务”。

  • 一位发言人没有对政府是否与迪士尼接触以删除该剧集发表评论。

  • 迪士尼拒绝发表评论。

  • 本月,迪士尼将在中国放映两部漫威电影,这是自2019年以来首次获得在大陆市场发行的批准。

  • 2020年,迪士尼还因在新疆拍摄耗资2亿美元的真人版《花木兰》的场景而招致批评。

  • Disney has removed an episode of The Simpsons from their streaming platform in Hong Kong that referred to “forced labour camps” in China.

  • This is the second episode to be removed from the service, the first being one that made reference to the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre.

  • The episode was produced by Disney-owned 20th Television Animation.

  • Beijing imposed a sweeping national security law on the city in 2020, which bans broadly defined crimes.

  • The episode was removed from the streaming platform in Hong Kong as part of a clampdown on political opposition and civil society.

  • This is the second episode to be removed from the service due to content that is deemed inappropriate by the Chinese government.

  • The latest Simpsons episode, “One Angry Lisa”, featured a scene that made reference to China’s human rights abuses, including forced labour and detention camps.

  • China has faced allegations of abuses against the Uyghur people and other mostly Muslim minorities in the Xinjiang region, which the UN has described as “crimes against humanity”.

  • Kenny Ng, associate professor at the Academy of Film at Hong Kong Baptist University, believes that Disney may have removed the episode out of concern for its business in mainland China.

  • Disney was accused of self-censorship in 2021 when an episode from The Simpsons, which satirized Beijing’s repression of the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre, was removed from its Disney Plus streaming platform in Hong Kong.

  • The episode featured a visit to Tiananmen Square, with a sign saying “On this site, in 1989, nothing happened”, and Homer Simpson calling former Chinese Communist party chair Mao Zedong a “little angel” who killed millions.

  • The move had more to do with the company’s ties, current and future, in mainland China.

  • In response to a request for comment, the Hong Kong government said a film censorship regime introduced in 2021, which forbids films from endangering national security, “does not apply to streaming services”.

  • A spokesperson did not comment on whether the government had approached Disney to remove the episode.

  • Disney declined to comment.

  • This month, Disney will screen two Marvel films in China, the first to receive approval for distribution in the mainland market since 2019.

  • Disney also drew criticism in 2020 for filming scenes of its $200mn live-action remake of Mulan in Xinjiang.
