Dear Lei: Thank You once again for your excellent video and points throughout. May I actually bring a few more points to this wonderful topic:
1. The story of Teresa Deng: When she was referred to as "Little Deng", she was victimized by both the CCP and KMT from their own style of propaganda. On the CCP front, what you mentioned was obvious, Deng's sweet voice and personalities truly melted the hearts of the brainwashed PRC citizens. Fearing losing control of their own people through brainwashing, of course, Deng and his minions did not like it. In fact, many of Deng's music records and cassette tapes were smuggled through Hong Kong, where Deng transformed into the truly mega Global Star sensation during the 1970s. In fact, her fluency in Japanese did much the same affection in Japan. Of course, the Japanese government never shut her down like those in the PRC.
The KMT in Taiwan, on the other hand, thought that the popularity of Deng in the PRC was probably the use of the CCP's own Propaganda campaign to make her famous. Gaining majority of her riches there. Therefore, they banned her ROC passport and citizenship, leaving poor Teresa an outcast ironically in opposite political ideologies to unseat each other. It was much, much later that KMT rescinded that ban for Teresa, whom by then settled in Hong Kong before her tragic and untimely death during her vacation in Chiang Mai, Thailand, on suspected overdose of medication treatment for her asthma.
2. The mentioning of the movie, "Mao's Last Dancer", were similar to the complete twisted narratives used by the CCP for Bruce Lee's epic and iconic Martial Arts themed movies. What Bruce was trying to do through his films was explaining that you must fight the oppressors to once again regain your freedom as his Universal Theme. This resonated well with the worldwide audience who truly understand this global message as he explained expertly from his famous 1971's television interview in Hong Kong with Canadian author and personality Pierre Berton, in the "Pierre Berton show". The link for the entire September 12th, 1971 recording can be viewed here:

3. There is a growing misleading perception about the CCP/PRC and the Chinese Civilization and culture itself. Not only they came from the obvious lies and fabrication by the CCP, as explained expertly by Lei in this video. Outside the PRC, in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, Europe and North America, some of the so-called online KOLs, were making up their own half-truths and lies with their own twisted views on the CCP/PRC. Why? Just like supermarkets selling entertainment tabloids, the more salacious and unreal the dirt regarding the CCP/PRC, the more people wants to pay and subscribe to update on their cravings of those dirt. In Hong Kong, we called them with the term "eating peanuts" - A pure form of wasting valuable time to watch or listen to these absolute non-sense. All to the benefits of the KOLs who are fattening their wallets spreading false rumours and lies.
This is not helping the causes of truly understanding the real issues of the CCP/PRC. In fact, they are no different than being brainwashed at false information regarding this truly horrible regime. In other words, it is just another form of mass-conversion and brainwashing exactly in the forms of the Soviets. Now being used by the CCP worldwide, to change these easily influenced people into Marxist-Leninist fundamentalists, with Chinese Characteristics of course.
Yes, people like Lei and I would like people to be Anti-CCP itself, but not the PRC Mainlander citizens because they are all victims with CCP's brainwashing techniques since 1950. Albeit they just don't know it at all. In order to fight them back, we have to do it with true "Wisdom" and "Courage". Wisdom must be derived from proven facts and truths, so you can establish your own foundation of knowledge with your own ideologies built on the solid ground. Then you can formulate ideas and using your own convictions and courage to derive plans for positive, constructive and affirmative actions to overcome this 21st Century Evil Monster intended to destroy our planet - Holding our entire human race as hostages.
I hope that Lei gives you the understand that you need, in order to go deeper to search for more. Don't just taken these video as informational tidbits about the PRC and the CCP. Find something more. Like peeling off the skins of the onion to get into the usable layers. This is all we as humans need to strive for. All of us have a wonderful brain that is woefully underused based on our own ignorance and stupidity. Let's open up ourselves to dig deeper and find out the real beauty of the ancient Chinese Civilization along with their drawbacks. So we can learn. Also to boldly uncover the hideous evil intentions of the CCP from their layers of deceptions, lies, charades and various way of camouflages from their publications, press conferences, official speeches and reports.
Just like the famous tagline of "X-Files": "THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE." We just have to look for it!
