Chinese Official Media Globally Recruit Reporters and KOLs are “The Media Challengers”
The Chinese official media CGTN, who has been fined and revoked license by England during the beginning of the year, recently held a “The Media Challengers” program. It is recruiting English-speaking reporters and KOLs. Those selected will receive a $10,000 bonus and get a full or part-time job in CGTN. Besides the Chinese international students, there are also some from Zimbabwe and Zambia. Some British experts believed that local audiences may think that the international community admired CCP if Western social media KOLs announce official Chinese messages on certain issues.
According to the official Weibo of CGTN, “The Media Challengers” is a “Recruitment of Global Host Reporters and KOLs” and is the first global event. It aims to “inject new power into international communication in a media-converged environment”, to recruit host, reporters, DJ and KOLs for English reports and creation. There are no limits for nationality.

NATO Got It Wrong: China Is a Bigger Threat Than Russia
NATO finally addressed China in a half-serious way. The U.S.-led alliance system described the country as a “challenge” in a communiqué. But NATO continues to plod along, way behind the curve. While NATO rightly recognizes Russia as an aggressive threat (the country did invade Ukraine in 2014, and is still there), history’s most powerful democratic alliance system continues to downplay history’s biggest totalitarian threat: China.

Joe Biden questions whether China is sincere for investigating the source of Wuhan Pneumonia, saying that he and Xi know each other but are not “old friends”
USA President Joe Biden questions whether China is sincere for investigating the source of Wuhan Pneumonia (COVID-19). He shows that although he and President Xi know each other but they are not “old friends”.
Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia attended the press conference after the Summit. He was asked if he contacts Xi Jinping, the president of The People's Republic of China, demanding President Xi to allow WHO to send people to China to do the traceable investigations. Biden replies, “everyone should make clear that we know each other but we are not old friends, just for business”.
Biden shows his suspects for the sincerity of China to co-operate with WHO. “China works hard to shape that he is a responsible and very visionary country, and keeps on saying how they helps the world in anti-pandemic and vaccination. There’s something which doesn’t need to explain to the whole world, and the whole world will see what the result is naturally. The question is: Does China need to investigate till coming to the bottom?”
