China’s stock market regulator began its most recent press briefing with a telling instruction for the mostly local journalists in attendance. “We have a requirement concerning speculative reports,” said the China Securities Regulatory Commission. “They must first be confirmed by the CSRC in order to prevent the spread of false information and market disturbance.”
中国证监会在开始举行最新一次新闻发布会时,向多数为国内记者参加的媒体发出明确指示。“我们对推测性报道是有规定的,”证监会表示,为了防止不实信息的扩散和市场动荡,它们首先必须要与证监会核实。
The warning was a reminder that as a “national team” comprised of largely state-owned entities struggles to shore up China’s slumping stock market, the government is orchestrating an equally important cheerleading campaign involving a broad array of state media outlets.
这番警告提醒人们,在基本上由国有实体组成的“国家队”正努力提振中国不断下跌的股市之际,中国政府正组织同样重要的包括大量国有媒体机构的“拉拉队”。
