Tiktok, Xiaohongshu, etc., which are derived from mainland China, are welcomed by young ethnic groups in Taiwan in recent years; at the same time, doubts such as strong cultural invasion and fake information intervention in the mainland have also caused prohibitsDiscussion set off social opposition.However, private groups or communication scholars who are concerned about security security believe that it is not realistic to prohibit people from using mainland community platforms, and I am afraid it will further tear the society.
Although the Taipei evening in late January was cold and cold due to the cold current, the "Three Dance Competitions" held by the well -known sightseeing attraction Ningxia Night Market still attracted a large number of people and squeezed the narrow roadside streets.The "Divine Comedy" on the mainland short video platform Douyin (overseas version is TIKTOK) is popular in Taiwan at an amazing speed.
"Subject III" is one of the subjects of Chinese driving licenses. As for the origin of the three dances, there are divergent opinions.The most widely circulated version is derived from a wedding performance in Guangxi. Because of the dancing of everyone at the wedding, some netizens played "Guangxi people will go through three exams in their lives.It is to eat rice noodles. The three subjects are dancing. "The dance that praised Guangxi people was very dancing. The dance, known as the" subject three ", was also circulated on the Internet.
In June last year, Douyin live broadcast the owner "God is not in Handan", adapted the original three dances of the original subject, took a smile on the DJ version of the rivers and lakes, and made a new version of the new version of the three dance steps with strong rhythm.Red, netizens scrambled to imitate.
In the second half of last year, the three trends of subjects began to sweep the young people in Taiwan. Many people actively showed the three techniques of subjects on social media platforms.On this wave of topics, when Ningxia Night Market announced on January 16th that when the three dance competitions for subjects were announced, more than 40 groups of participants signed up within two hours, more than twice as much as expected 20 groups.
However, there are also many people in Taiwan society who hold a negative sense of the subject three of the subjects from the mainland, questioning that this is the strong cultural invasion of the mainland, and some people even describe it as "dance Taiwan".
After the Ningxia Night Market announced the holding of the dance competition, about 18,000 people responded to the call of the game at the scene of the competition, "the subject should be grasped".Although no one was in trouble in the end, the relevant scolding continued. On the eve of the Lunar New Year, some people also launched a "prohibiting relatives and children's jumping subject three" activities on Facebook, attracting more than 20,000 people to participate.
In fact, this kind of dislike of Douyin culture is not only aimed at subject three. Before that, my surnamed Shi vowed that the Douyin dance music that became popular in Taiwan was also criticized.Taiwan ’s Internet is also rumored to be ridiculed by“ Douyin, Parents Bai Yang ”, which shows that the social opposition is serious.
Hu Hanbin is one of the participants of the three dance competitions of the Ningxia Night Market. At the age of 20, he was studying at the performance department in high school and currently devoted himself to the performance.He has only had more than two or three months with Douyin. He already has more than 38,000 fans, and the international version of the Tiktok account has also gained nearly 300,000 praises.
He said in an interview with Lianhe Morning Post that at first he used Douyin, but just shot it fun. He did not expect to receive tens of thousands of people as soon as he woke up, so that he could invest in operation. Sometimes he could earn a small amount of advertisements.Insurance, there are no small supplements.
Facing the criticism of criticism in Taiwanese society, Hu Hanbin disagreed.He believes that this is the reason for some people to magnify Douyin from mainland China.In fact, most users only use Douyin for entertainment, and they don't care and don't want to see the political content of Douyin.
Tiktok has become Taiwan's third largest social platform
Taiwan Network (Taiwan Language, the Network) Information Center released the 2023 Taiwan Internet Report in August last year. The international version of Douyin "TIKTOK" has become the third largest social platform used by the people in Taiwan.The first two are Facebook (55.83%) and Instagram (20.79%).Tiktok accounts for 2.65%.In addition, 22.31%of the 2153 people over the age of 22 and cities in Taiwan will use TIKTOK, most of them are students, young people aged 18 to 29, and middle -aged people 40 to 49. They are mainly living in the central region.
Lin Qiaoling, who uses Tiktok and Douyin at the same time, is a college graduate who has only entered the workplace last year. It has two or three years using Douyin.She started to use Tiktok and Douyin because she first saw many funny videos transferred to Facebook.As for the difference between the two, Lin Qiaoling said that she often uses vibrato because there are more short videos of Chinese content compared to.
In addition, she also uses Xiaohongshu, but it is more browse clothing and shopping.
Lin Qiaoling admits that because of the use of these mainland social platforms, she will be affected by mainland trends in terms of language, diet, and popular culture.For example, in recent years, she has also bought snail powder, chasing mainland film and television dramas, and so on.
Wu Yixuan, who is also a freshman in the workplace, is also a user of Tiktok and Xiaohongshu, but she has been in contact with the mainland social platform about the mainland since high school. The use time is longer than Lin Qiaoling.The purpose of using these two social platforms, like Lin Qiaoling, is also for daily entertainment.
Both of them mentioned that many colleagues around them will use Tiktok and Xiaohongshu, but they will not discuss special discussions, nor will they take the initiative to mention the use of mainland social platforms.But they don't think this is due to political sensitivity, but in their lives, it is normal to use these platforms.
Dai Yuhui, an associate professor of the Department of Communication and Science and Technology of Taiwan Yangming University of Communications, analyzed the Morning Post that Taiwanese people watched mainland film and television works, used mainland social platforms, and used mainland terms. It is a very common phenomenon in the process of cross -cultural communication.Just as Taiwanese use Korean dramas, they will use South Korea's words in large quantities, it does not mean that it will affect the national identity of the people.
The director of the Department of Advertising at the Taiwan Cultural University also believes that the use of mainland Chinese language is the communication logic of the community era."In other words, if I want to advance into this community today, I need to use this community commonly used vocabulary. This is for circle powder, it may not be very heavy and serious about what cultural aggression."
However, Dai Yuhui observed that if the students are publicly asked if students use Douyin and Tiktok, students are often reluctant to express their positions, and they will only disclose when they are chatting in private.She believes that this is the anti -effects caused by criticizing young ethnic groups to use mainland social platforms, which not only causes confrontation, but also difficult to explore the use trend of young people's social platforms.
Taiwan election lifts Tiktok to select the argument
Tiktok has become the third largest social platform used by the people in Taiwan. However, during the election of Taiwan and legislators, TIKTOK is also regarded as one of the main ways to spread fake information.
Following the issues such as fake information and cognitive war, non -governmental organizations in Taiwan Democratic Laboratory,On January 19th, the preliminary results of the influence analysis of Taiwan election overseas information operations were announced on January 19.
From October last year, they recorded on the day of the voting day on January 13 this year. A total of more than 10,000 Internet content. The platform includes Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, DCARD, PTT and other major social platforms.Weibo, Tiktok, Douyin, Bilibili and other mainland platforms.
The results found that, such as imports of imported eggs and the import of imported eggs, there are mainland official media to follow up, and through a large number of coordinated account transmission, it has strengthened and enlarged Taiwan's existing social conflicts and controversial issues.In addition, two short videos of Taiwanese net celebrities have been shot before election and related to votes, and their lines and materials are highly similar.
In addition, the research report released by the Taiwan Artificial Intelligence Laboratory in January also shows that during the election campaign, Tiktok has a clear tendency to political parties and overwhelmingly supports the people's party.The posts are four times that of the blue -green party candidate, and 76%of the discussions are mostly positive.
Zhao Shaokang, who represents the Kuomintang's vice president, also criticized Tiktok's selection seriously and questioned that the Taiwan Central Election Commission, the National Communications Commission and the Digital Development Department did not investigate.
Analysis: Communication information is spread through a living account
For whether there is content related to Taiwan's politics on TIKTOK and Douyin, Wu Yixuan said that when he approaches the election, he will indeed see some content related to elections, but she will feel very disgusted as soon as she sees it.As long as you see it, you will directly cut off, and you don't think these content can affect her political position.
However, Yang Shunqing, the leader of the EQ analysis team of Taiwan Democratic Laboratory, pointed out in an interview with Lianhe Morning Post that on their observations, some of the selected fake information of Tiktok often spread through some humble living accounts, and only in the only inconspicuous living account, and only in the only inAt the critical moment, some political content emerges, and the shape is very like rumors. The traffic of these political content is often particularly high.In this case, it is more difficult for the audience to realize that they are affected.
Scholars: Repeated emphasis on cognitive operations will intensify social division
For how to respond to Tiktok, the Taiwan government is also in a dilemma.
The Taiwan Executive Yuan ordered the subordinate department to disable Douyin in 2022, regarding Douyin as a medium of cognitive operations.Chen Jianren, the president of Taiwan, has also publicly stated that Douyin has become a platform for cognitive operations in some countries. The public sector has banned the use of Douyin and TIKTOK to strengthen publicity and improve people's media reading ability.
The Taiwan Investigation Bureau also set up a "Cognitive War Research Center" after the election of January this year, which will collect and analyze instant reports such as influence of overseas forces influence Taiwan's security, disturbing social stability, and damaging the relationship between the friendly and alliances.Check out abnormal accounts and invite social platform operators to remove the shelves, release news and expose them.
However, these practices have also been criticized by the wild camp to limit freedom of speech. Even the DPP Standing Committee member Xu Shuhua also proposed that there is no need to prohibit vibrato.Young people interact and ignore the impact of new media technology on young people.
In this regard, Niu Zexun pointed out that Douyin has become the main social platform used by young ethnic groups. Behind the huge community flow, the DPP dare not forbid."If you ban this part, offend the young ethnic group, your young votes will worsen even more."
He believes that the DPP will shift to social platforms such as Threads launched by Meta to expand young votes; in the wild camp, although the Kuomintang and the people's party are working on TIKTOK, the former image is aging, and the propaganda methods lack creativity.It is difficult to fight for young voters through Tiktok, and the people's party is more advantageous compared to the people.
Whether there are Hu Hanbin who runs Douyin, Tiktok account, or Lin Qiaoling and Wu Yixuan who is purely watching these social platforms, they all feel that there is no need to prohibit Douyin, and it is agreed that this is just an entertainment platform and will not affect their politics.Agree with the country.
Yang Shunqing also admits that Taiwan's difficulty in promoting the comprehensive banning of Douyin's politics is too high, which is almost impossible.He believes that in the face of possible cognitive war risks, what Taiwan can do at this stage should be to strengthen the government and the people to jointly promote media reading, and further integrate the functions of the competent authority of digital crimes.
Dai Yuhui pointed out that the return of whether to prevent Douyin's discussion is actually the problem of internal society in Taiwan."Taiwan is fundamentally in a state of cautious fear of China, and then based on this grabbing fear, it derives the form that seems to want to prevent it, but in fact, it causes its internal opposition."
She believes that repeatedly emphasizing the cognitive operation of Douyin, but it will cause the problem of "wolf coming". Everyone is paralyzed after a long time, and it will also intensify social division and social disputes.It is better to explain to the society how to do publicity and united fronts in all aspects to promote the understanding of the public, instead of only taking it out during the election.
