Xinjiang Movie Worker Association

Recently, before leaving his office, Mike Pompeo, the former US Secretary of State, made up “the lie of the century”, falsely claiming that Xinjiang has committed “crimes against humanity” and “genocide” towards Muslims, including Uygur, and other ethnic minorities. Pompeo’s words and actions severely violate international law and fundamental rules in international relations, severely intervene China’s internal affairs and severely hurting all ethnic groups in Xinjiang. For these, Xinjiang Movie Worker Association and all movie artists and workers in Xinjiang express their strong condemnation and resolute opposition.

Xinjiang Movie Worker Association is an non-official professional group that is under the leadership of the Party and consists of all movie artists and workers from various ethnic groups in Xinjiang. For many years, these workers have worked diligently with their hearts and souls. They made excellent movies for audience to show that Xinjiang is stable and secure, people are living in peace and contentment and economy continues to develop better and better. They also show the great achievements in alleviating poverty and the great care and attention to Xinjiang from the Party. With these real images, Pompeo’s lie could not stand at all. The lie also showed his evil purpose. Facts speak louder than words. No matter how many lies Pompeo chose to speak, they will never cover up the fact that Xinjiang is stable in society and developing fast in economy and the fact that all ethnic groups in Xinjiang are having a happy life.

Movie industry in Xinjiang started from nothing and it grows up gradually and firmly. The numerous movies about the wonderful life of ethnic groups in Xinjiang have been developing rapidly and are warmly welcomed by the world. They show a brilliant picture of plural cultures surviving and prospering together. The business is at its best development stage and the happy life is so well and so realistically expressed. With the ardent love for this wonderful land, and with the profound gratitude to our great country, movie workers in Xinjiang actively plunged themselves into the modern socialist construction. They employ various means in camera technology to show the specially local and ethnic features and to show the bright picture of all Xinjiang people working hard together to achieve prosperity and development and to enjoy the happy life.

Today, Xinjiang movie is a significant part of the classical movie gallery of Chinese movie. All diligent movie workers in Xinjiang are using their outstanding creative intelligence to make their own special contribution to the growing influence of Chinese ethnic movies in the world. The contribution is, in one way, a fruitful result of the national cultivation program from ethnic minority movie talents. These ethnic minority movie workers fully demonstrate Xinjiang’s beutiful image by cameras in their hands, using their real living experience and true emotion of Xinjiang. Recently, the Movie channel of CCTV holds a series of thematic broadcasting and playing of Xinjiang movies, named “Great Beauty in Xinjiang”. Such excellent movies as “True Love”, “Money Is On the Way”, “The Drum Song of Taklimakan Desert”, “Passing Pastoral Songs”, which have all been made by Tianshan Movie Company, play in the channel. They show, in front of the world’s audience, the wonderful images of Xinjiang, the outstanding spiritual image of all ethnic groups in unity and striving forward, and the tremendous achievements accomplished by Xinjiang people in the new era. The stories in these movies are from the real events in our daily life. With these vivid stories, the audience could watch the happy life and the great changes happening in Xinjiang in the past years, with the meticulous care and attention from the Party. The happy life and the real stories are the irrefutable facts to refute Pompeo’s lie, rumor, his wanton smear on Xinjiang and his viciously defaming of Xinjiang people.

Lie will always be disclosed in front of facts. We firmly believe that Pompeo’s lie will surely be seen through by all the world. Xinjiang movies workers are indignant about Pompeo’s shameless lies. Xinjiang movie is one of the best means to show Xinjiang image and to let more and more people in the world to know and understand Xinjiang. We would never allow such clown as Pompeo to sabotage the beautiful blue sky over our head.
