芦笛: 历史岂容任意塑造？--驳封从德等人对《天安门》的指控

历史岂容任意塑造？ ——驳封从德等人对《天安门》的指控 芦笛 刚才看见封从德先生等人的《請簽名——致〈天安門〉製片人的公開信》，指责“該影片有選擇地引用了一些句語，同時又遺漏了一些重要的史實，創作了一些不真實的歷史記錄，尤其是關係到天安門廣場總指揮柴玲的部分很不真實”。唯一能举出的证据只有两条。 第一条是： “顯然，柴玲的用語‘期待流血’被《天安門》製片人卡瑪•韓丁Carma Hinton 錯誤地翻譯並斷章取義。“期待”應譯為“預期或等待”(anticipate or wait)，而非影片中所謂的“期望”(hope for)。我們在現場的都知道，柴玲那句話是指我們預期可能會發生鎮壓，並希望一旦發生鎮壓是在公共場所和媒體面前，而不是在陰暗的角落、不會從世人的視野中消失，就像其他1989年之前和之後眾多的民眾運動那樣。而且，重要的是我們預期的是鎮壓，而非大屠殺。另外還應注意，學運組織者已作了最大努力，以確保選擇留在天安門廣場的學生和民眾明白風險並自願留下。” 可惜柴女士的那个讲话录音稿就放在网上，由不得封先生20年后（或1995年后）任意作整容手术。 先看“期待流血”是否误译。根据《汉典》的解释： 期待 期望；等待。 南朝 梁 沈约 《还园宅奉酬华阳先生》诗：“早欲寻名山，期待婚嫁毕。” 唐 韩愈 《答渝州李使君书》：“是以负所期待，窃窃转语於人，不见成效，此 愈 之罪也。” 明 方孝孺 《与郑叔度书》之七：“但媿学术荒陋，无所建明，孤负期待，以损知人之哲。” 袁鹰 《十月长安街》：“亿万人民衷心期待的胜利，在我们最焦急、最愤懑的时刻成为钢浇铁铸的现实了。” 所举的例句，无论是古语还是现代语，全都有hope for的意思。 再来看柴玲原话： “政府这方面已经逐渐的稳固了。我们唯一能做的就是我们在天安门广场坚持，等待看一看人民能不能真正团结起来，因为到最后只有是人民跟这个与人民作对的政府来较量了。 同学们老在问，我们下一步要干什么，我们能达到什么要求，我心里觉得很悲哀，我没办法告诉他们，其实我们期待的就是，就是流血。就是让政府最后，无赖至极的时候它用屠刀来对着它的，它的公民。我想，也只有广场血流成河的时候，全中国的人才能真正擦亮眼 睛。（哭）他们真正才能团结起来。 ” 她说的清清楚楚：她期望等待的就是广场血流成河，因为只有这样，才能擦亮全国人民眼睛，起来推翻政府（“我想最终的就是推翻这个没有人性的，不再代表人民利益的反动的政府，而建立一个人民自由的政府，而让中华人民真正地站起来，让一个人民的共和国真正地诞生。” ） 这难道不是“希望”的意思？请问译为hope for 究竟有何失真之处？顶多就是该改为“hope and wait for”，少了个wait而已，但加上wait其实更糟糕，有了“迫不及待”的意思，虽然柴玲的原话确实透出了这种意味，但若真是如此翻译，封先生能同意么？ 柴玲在谈话中反复用了“流血”一语，甚至具体说明那是“广场上血流成河”，证明封先生所谓“重要的是我們預期的是鎮壓，而非大屠殺”完全是谎言。实际发生的大屠杀，也没到“血流成河”的地步，哪怕是在最严重的木樨地也如此。所以，严格说来，匪党兽军的努力其实还没能满足柴玲的期待值。 该信作出的第二个指控是： “尤為重要的是，柴玲那句‘……我要求生’也被斷章取義，從而給出一個虛假的印象，讓人以為她自己逃跑了。而事實上，她和天安門學生和民眾示威者一直留在廣場，直到最後一刻，並在‘六四’清晨帶領大家撤離廣場，一道走回校園。正是這樣的不實印象，誤導了香港大學學生會會長陳一諤，導致他最近作了一個錯誤的公開演講，從而被暸解真相的香港大學的學生們罷免。像陳一諤這樣受誤導的觀眾很多，這從互聯網上因貴片引起的對柴玲的大量惡評就可明顯看出。 柴玲5月28日的錄像談話提到求生的愿望，這是我們共同的愿望。當時的11億中國人無一沒有強烈的求生愿望。事實上，面臨屠殺和監禁，我們和廣場上的同伴中的許多人都作出了艱難的抉擇，用犧牲求生的愿望來維護我們的責任與尊嚴。實際上，在‘六四’屠殺後被迫轉入地下的過程中，在躲藏、囚禁和流亡海外的經歷中，正是這種求生的愿望，給我們以勇氣和力量生存下來。正如柴玲在《絕食書》中所說的那樣：‘我們以死的氣概，為了生而戰’。” 这又是罔顾事实的文过饰非，请看柴玲自己是怎么说的： “问：下一步呢？ 下一步作为我个人，我愿意求生下去。广场上的同学，我想只能是坚持到底，等待政府狗急跳墙的时候血洗。” “问：你自己会继续在广场坚持吗？ 　我想我不会的。 　问：为什么呢？ 因为我跟大家不一样。我是上了黑名单的人。被这样的政府残害，不甘心。我要求生。我就这样想。我不知道会不会有人说自私什么的，但是我觉得，我的这些工作，应该有人来接着干下去，因为这种民主运动不是一个人能干成的。这段话先不要披露，好吗？” Once again, 柴玲自己说得清清楚楚，告诉大家她个人准备求生，同学们则只能坚持到底，等待政府血洗。在此，她把自己与“广场上的同学”、“大家”的命运分得判若泾渭，毫无暧昧不明之处。求生是她个人的愿望，不是封先生所谓“這是我們共同的愿望”。她还怕人家说她自私，若是共同愿望，何来“自私”一说？若求生真是她与同学们的共同愿望，她为何还要坚决反对30号撤出广场，要“想告诉大家，现在广场是我们唯一的阵地了，我们再失守这个阵地话，那么中国就要复辟了”，号召“保卫天安门”，赖在广场上不走？在戒严令下达后、或哪怕是紧急通告下达后撤出广场，不就能轻而易举实现共同求生的愿望了么？ 最不能原谅的是，柴玲一面期望等待流血，准备个人求生，一面又欺骗比她小得多的孩子们坚持在广场上送死： “我想，也只有广场血流成河的时候，全中国的人才能真正擦亮眼 睛。（哭）他们真正才能团结起来。但是这种话怎么能跟同学们说？” “所以我觉得很悲哀。这些话没有办法直接跟同学讲，跟同学说，我们就是要在这里流血，用我们的鲜血和生命来唤起民众，同学们肯定会这样做的，但是，他们年轻的孩子们（哭 ）。” 这就是封先生说的：“學運組織者已作了最大努力，以確保選擇留在天安門廣場的學生和民眾明白風險並自願留下”？ 白纸黑字，铁证如山，斧头也砍不掉，纵是封先生利舌如簧，也不能把“期待”曲解为“anticipate”，把个人求生、集体送命的罪恶计划美化为“集体求生”。求生毫不可耻，乃是人类最正当的愿望，最基本的权利，可耻的是欺骗他人去送命，号召市民“保卫天安门”，为自己筑成人盾，一面又准备个人求生。至于柴玲最后没这么做，非不为也，是不能也，突如其来、急转直下的事态发展打破了她的如意算盘，没能来得及逃走而已，这也能当成她的功劳？ 只是因为她的个人逃生计划被打破，而卡玛又没能拍到她最后撤出的镜头，封先生便指责人家歪曲事实，误导观众，这说得过去么？那部电影是报道整个历史事件的，并不是为柴女皇作起居注。提出这种奇怪要求，封先生何以不会觉得过份与僭妄？就算卡玛是柴玲私人雇佣的摄影师，她也不可能做到时时刻刻守在柴玲身边，及时拍下她的每个历史性行动吧？ 就算柴玲有抓S糊脸的狂热爱好，明明不想独自逃生，准备一道与大众死在血流成河的广场上，却要向西方记者撒谎，以便彻底糟蹋自己的形象，那也是她自己的错，不能赖到采访者头上去。封先生为什么不去声讨责备柴玲误导观众？她自己不说那些话，还能有人误会么？ 其实就算观众以为柴玲那晚根本不在，也没怎么冤枉她，盖那不过是50步与百步的差别，按柴玲的逻辑，撤出广场当然是可耻的逃跑，是“投降”，就算是最后一个逃跑，也仍然是逃跑，她为何忘记了自己的誓言“吾以吾血建中华”，不在广场上坚持下去，而要当她反复谴责可耻的“投降派”、“阴谋家”、“特务”，让广场那个“唯一的阵地”沦陷，中国实现了“复辟”涅？ 综上所述，我认为电影《天安门》并无严重失实之处，是一部相当难得的好电影。柴玲因为该片没有美化她，反而为世人如实留下了她的历史性证言，向读者揭示了她阴暗的内心世界，就此恼羞成怒，动用自己公司的雄厚财力，对非盈利组织长弓纪录片摄制组恶意兴讼缠讼，搞到人家快破产的地步。封先生还雪上加霜，呼应柴玲的迫害行动，在网上散发公开信，歪曲事实诋毁《天安门》制片人，企图封杀不利于自己神话形象的客观记录，实非文明人所当为，所屑为！ 希望有识之士起来捍卫神圣的言论自由，捍卫草民对朝野政客们品头评足的神圣权利，抵制毛共余孽在西方开展造神运动、赤化西方世界、压制言论自由、实行舆论一律的反动行为，在声援长弓纪录片摄制组的呼吁书上踊跃签名，使得纯洁的西方不被从东方流来的共毒败坏，让我们可以继续享受自由的多元舆论，谢谢！ -------------------------------------------------- 附录： 呼吁书 纪念六四 兼论言论自由及其倡导者 （长弓纪录片制作组，2009年4月15日） 值此1989天安门抗议运动20周年之际，我们怀着沉痛的心情纪念这一惨遭残酷镇压的民众运动。在这场运动中，数以百万计的中国民众曾走上街头，要求新闻与言论自由。 20年前，长弓制作组着手编导纪录片《天安门》并建立相关的历史资料网站（www.tsquare.tv），旨在以独立的视角和深入浅出的方式表现这一历史事件的复杂动因及过程，并为学者和公众持续提供有关的研究资料。 1995年10月，《天安门》入选纽约电影节。影片尚未公映，就遭到来自中国政府和某些89学运参与者两方面的声讨。随后中国政府要求所有的国际电影节禁 演此片，声称《天安门》“歌颂暴徒，误导观众，伤害了12亿中国人民的感情”。反对此片的学运参与者则一口咬定我们是受中国政府指使，斥我们“是一群苍 蝇，是我们这个时代真正的疾病。” 尽管如此，《天安门》仍在美国和世界各地获得多项电影与学术大奖。影片至今依然受到媒体、有关研究人员以及教育界人士的关注，与其网站一道，已成 为国际上有关中国现代史研究探讨的组成部分。我们深信，此类独立研究与独立影片的制作只有在学术界同仁、公共基金会及私人捐助的鼎力支持下，在言论自由得 到充分保障的情况下才能得以进行。 然而今天，我们作为一个独立制片和历史档案机构的基本生存正在受到严重的威胁。令人深感担忧的是，这种威胁竟来自一个曾在1989年学生运动中声 称支持言论自由和民主的人士。柴玲，原保卫天安门广场指挥部总指挥、尖子班（注：美国一商业软件公司 Jenzabar）现任总裁，与她的丈夫 Robert Maginn（原 Bain Capital的合伙人及director，现任尖子班首席执行官）于2007年在美国麻州波士顿以损害名誉和商标侵权两项罪名对我们提出了控告。 “损害名誉”的指控基于我们的网站链接了美国一些主流媒体发表的文章，其中涉及到有关尖子班、柴玲和Robert Maginn的一些负面消息。关于商标侵权的指控，则仅仅基于我们的网站中引述相关文章时出现了“尖子班”这一名称。对于“损害名誉”的起诉，法院决定不 予受理。对“商标侵权”的指控，法院认为：虽然由于两家公司业务不同，尖子班胜诉的可能性极小，但仍决定给予尖子班一次为其指控提供证据的机会。 我们的长弓制作组是一个非盈利性的纪录片制作公司，而尖子班是一家为高等教育机构提供管理系统软件的商业公司。我们与尖子班的业务毫不相干，亦不 存在任何商业上的竞争。尖子班却指控我们的网站侵犯其商标，误导其潜在用户，从而造成其公司的客户流失。我们并非商业软件公司，也不销售尖子班的客户可能 感到兴趣的一类软件，而且事实上也从未有人就尖子班或其软件与我们进行过联系。 近年来，美国的一些主流媒体，如《波士顿环球报》、《福布斯》、及《高等教育学报》，都曾报道过并在网上存档尖子班及其总裁柴玲的情况。长弓网站 仅止于引用了这些报道。据我们所知，首发报道的这些主流媒体并没有受到尖子班的任何指控。因此我们有理由认为，这次法律诉讼显然是旨在以要挟为手段，迫使 我们从网站上删除与柴玲和尖子班有关的信息。柴玲的律师就曾明确要求我们从网站上删除一切有关尖子班的材料。然而我们认为，这些历史资料不仅有关公众利 益，而且早已通过其它途径进入公众视听领域。为尽早结束这场在我们看来是惩罚性的法律诉讼，我们与对方进行了多次谈判并作出某些和解性让步，然而这场官司 目前依然在继续，已经给我们带来巨大的财务损耗，以至威胁到我们这个机构的生存。 以下是2007年5月对方提出的控告的摘录。 这些严重的指控既是对长弓制作组的威胁，更是对我们一贯所珍视的政治与言论自由等基本原则的威胁： “出于恶意和对共产党政府官员的同情，并一心想诋毁中国天安门民主运动的一名学生领袖柴玲，长弓制作组在其网站传播有关原告的虚假信息，从一些过 时的报道中收集误导性言论，散播半真半假的消息，以期造成对尖子班、柴玲和Maginn的不良印象。为确保这些内容尽可能广泛地传播，以造成最大损害，长 弓在未经授权的情况下使用受法律保护的尖子班商标，将读者引到长弓网站。后果之一是，尖子班的客户及潜在客户被误导到该网站和该网站上的诋毁性内容，由此 造成对尖子班名誉的伤害和商业机遇的损失。” “我们获知并认为长弓的诋毁性言论出自对柴玲本人的恶意，图谋损害柴玲的声誉，以达到他们别有用心的政治目的。” 起诉书同时还要求： “长弓必须申报由前述非法行为所带来的所有赢利，并用此非法获得的赢利对尖子班进行陪偿。” 我们认为，尖子班这一指控，旨在伤害我们这个非盈利性的独立制片和研究团体，这个团体在过去三十年间为世界各地的广大观众与教育界提供了有关中国 历史、人文风貌的各种影片。柴玲和尖子班似乎已下定决心，除非我们顺其要求从网站上删除历史资料并回避尖子班的名称，他们就要通过旷日持久的诉讼过程耗尽 我们这个非盈利机构的有限财力。我们认为，他们的目的和手段不仅对我们具有极其严重的后果，同时在更大的范围内，对言论自由与独立学术探讨也具有深远的负 面影响。 我们认为，在纪念六四20周年的同时，有必要反思与重申如下一些原则在我们自己所处的环境中的重要性。这些原则包括：独立思想、独立于任何政治与商业利益集团的历史研究、收集和保护历史文献、以及言论自由。 为此，我们向各位专家学者、各媒体及教育界的同仁们、以及关注此案的公众提出呼吁，请到我们的网站（www.tsquare.tv）阅读有关这场法律诉讼的详细资料，以期就言论自由等有关问题作出你们自己的判断。 此呼吁书绝非针对尖子班、其产品或其所提供的用户服务。我们无意引起或参与任何抵制尖子班，或有损于尖子班 的营业与雇员的任何活动。我们只要求维护我们的权利，捍卫言论自由，保护我们自己和我们所从事的工作不受这一无理指控的伤害。 如果你愿意助我们一臂之力，请在这份呼吁书上签名，以表示对我们立场的支持。你的签名不具备任何法律义务、责任或承诺，也不表明你一定认同我们在 影片或网站上发表的观点。你的签名只意味着，当一个商业公司企图凭借金钱与权势来压制争论、删除历史资料时，它的这种行为将在学术界以及公众中引起关注。 如果你愿意签名支持我们，请发电子邮件至 info@longbow.org 。请标明你的职务和所属机构。 英文稿件以及签名名单如下： An Appeal In Memoriam- Tiananmen 1989, Free Speech & its Advocates The Long Bow Group, Boston (15 April 2009) We commemorate the twentieth anniversary of the 1989 Protest Movement in China and recall with heavy hearts its brutal suppression. During that movement millions of people in China demonstrated in support of freedom of expression and media openness. In making the documentary film The Gate of Heavenly Peace (天安门 1995), and with the creation of its archival website (www.tsquare.tv), the Long Bow Group attempted to reflect the complex motives and stories behind the events of 1989 in an accessible format, and to provide specialists and the public with an ongoing research resource. The film was attacked sight unseen both by the Chinese government and by several former student activists prior to its première at the New York Film Festival in October 1995. Subsequently, the Chinese authorities demanded it be banned from international film festivals, claiming that showing it would ‘mislead the audience and hurt the feelings of 1.2 billion Chinese people.’ Meanwhile, the student activists who opposed the film accused us of working for the Chinese government and denounced us as ‘a pack of flies, a true disease of our era.’ (他们是一群苍蝇, 是我们这个时代真正的疾病). Despite controversy The Gate of Heavenly Peace went on to win numerous prestigious film and academic awards in the United States and overseas. The film has continued to draw attention in the mass media, among researchers and educators and, together with the related website, it forms part of the international discussion of China’s modern history. We believe that the kind of independent research and cinematic work we produce has only been possible through the support of academic colleagues, public funding agencies, private donations, and under the protective umbrella of free speech. We are now deeply concerned because our very existence as an independent film and archive group is being threatened by a lawsuit launched by one of the people who, during the 1989 Protest Movement in Beijing, professed support for freedom of speech and democracy. Chai Ling (Ling Chai), President of Jenzabar, Inc., and in 1989 Commander-in-Chief of the Defend Tiananmen Square Headquarters, and her husband, Robert Maginn, CEO of Jenzabar and a former Senior Partner and Director at Bain & Company, sued the Long Bow Group in 2007 in Boston, Massachusetts, for defamation and trademark infringement. The lawsuit accused us of defamation because our website links to mainstream media news articles that reported critical information about Jenzabar, Chai Ling, and Robert Maginn. The trademark allegations are based on our use of the name ‘Jenzabar’ in the website. In the early stages of the litigation, the court threw out the defamation claims but not the trademark claims. The court recognized that ‘Jenzabar seems unlikely to prevail on [the trademark claims],’ but nevertheless decided to give Jenzabar a chance to try to prove its claims. As a result, we are facing the accusation that Long Bow – a non-profit documentary film producer – is violating the commercial trademark of Jenzabar, a company that sells administrative and management software systems to large educational institutions. Although we clearly have no connection to Jenzabar and do not compete in any respect with Jenzabar, the lawsuit claims that our site diverts and confuses Jenzabar’s potential customers. In fact, not one person has ever contacted the Long Bow Group about software or Jenzabar. Over the years, mainstream US media publications (in particular, The Boston Globe, Forbes and The Chronicle of Higher Education) have produced and archived materials related to Jenzabar and its President, Chai Ling. The Long Bow website merely quotes from these materials, yet we are not aware of any action against these larger publications. In our opinion, this lawsuit is clearly intended to intimidate us into removing these news accounts and other information about Chai Ling and Jenzabar from our website. Indeed, Chai Ling’s lawyers have demanded that we remove any reference to the company from our website. We believe that this material is of public interest and it is already in the public domain through other sources. Despite long months of discussion and conciliatory action on our part, undertaken in the hope of bringing an end to what we believe is malicious litigation, the case continues at great expense and risk to us. The following excerpts from the Complaint filed against Long Bow in May 2007 demonstrate the seriousness of this lawsuit, as a threat to Long Bow and to the principles of political and expressive freedom that we hold so dearly: —‘Motivated by ill-will, their sympathy for officials in the Communist government of China, and a desire to discredit Chai, a former student leader in the pro-democracy movement in China’s Tiananmen Square, Long Bow Group, Inc. (“Long Bow”) has published false content concerning the Plaintiffs on the website it maintains (the “Site”) and has collected a misleading sample of statements from outdated articles to circulate half-truths and falsehoods, and to create false impressions about Jenzabar, Chai, and Maginn. To ensure that this content is widely viewed and as damaging as possible, Long Bow makes unauthorized use of Jenzabar’s protected trademarks to direct traffic to the Site. As a consequence, Jenzabar’s clients and prospective clients are diverted to the Site and its defamatory content, causing reputational injury and loss of business opportunities.’ —‘Upon information and belief, Long Bow’s defamatory statements are motivated by malice toward Chai, as well as Long Bow’s desire to discredit Chai and advance Long Bow’s divergent political agenda.’ The Complaint also makes a demand: —‘For an accounting of the gains and profits realized by Long Bow from its aforesaid wrongful acts, and restitution and/or disgorgement to Jenzabar of Long Bow’s ill-gotten gains.’ We believe this is a concerted attempt to undermine a nonprofit film and research organization that has for nearly thirty years presented audiences and educators throughout the world with work on Chinese life and history. Chai and Jenzabar appear determined to drain the limited resources of the Long Bow Group for not complying with their demands that we remove historical materials and data, as well as all references to Jenzabar, from our website. We are of the view that such demands and tactics have dire implications not only for us, but more widely for free speech and independent scholarship. We believe that in commemorating the events of 1989 twenty years on, it is important to reflect also on the value of independent thought, unfettered historical research, the collection and protection of archival materials and the freedom of speech in our own environment. It is for this reason that we appeal to you—fellow researchers, colleagues in the media, educators and members of the interested public—to visit our website (www.tsquare.tv) to read the materials that have prompted this lawsuit and the legal filings from the case. We ask you to draw your own conclusions about the issues and freedoms at stake. Please do not take this appeal as an attack on Jenzabar’s business or the products and services it provides to its customers. We have no interest in prompting or participating in a boycott and no interest whatsoever in causing harm to Jenzabar’s business or its employees. We seek only to preserve our rights, to stand up for the principle of free speech, and to defend ourselves and our work from this unjustified challenge. If you would like to help, please sign this appeal as a modest gesture of your support for our stand. Please know that your signature carries no legal obligations, responsibilities, or commitments of any kind, nor does it mean that you necessarily agree with opinions expressed in either the Long Bow Group's films or its websites. Rather, it indicates that any instance of a corporation using its money and its power to stifle debate and suppress the historical record is cause for concern, in the academic community and beyond. If you are interested in lending your support, please email us at info@longbow.org, and we will add your name to the list of signatories posted on our website. Please be sure to include your name, title, and affiliation (if any) in your email.
