padding-bottom: 56.29%;">中國戰地旅遊真人秀遭停播

A popular online extreme travel show has been banned in China after a run-in with Isis in a case of war tourism gone badly wrong.

一檔在中國網絡熱播的極限冒險旅遊節目在內容涉及“伊斯蘭國”(ISIS)的視頻播出後遭禁播,這是戰地旅遊嚴重出錯的案例之一。

The Lu Xing — “On the Road” — show stars Zhang Xinyu, a tofu machine mogul and Liang Hong, his patient wife, who quit the rat race to tour world hotspots, camera crew in tow, since 2013.

這檔名爲《侶行》(On the Road)的真人秀節目,由商人張昕宇和他耐心的妻子樑紅自2013年起帶着攝製組奔赴世界熱點地區拍攝製作。張昕宇靠販賣即食豆腐機起家,樑紅退出職場和丈夫一起旅行。

From wandering the arms bazaars of Mogadishu to the Buddhas of Bamiyan, the show tapped into a new wanderlust among Chinese professionals, picked high viewing numbers on Youku Tudou, China’s version of YouTube, and a sponsorship by Mercedes.

從流連於摩加迪沙(Mogadishu)的武器集貿市場到巴米揚大佛(Buddhas of Bamiyan),該節目利用了中國職業人羣一波新的旅遊熱,在中國版的YouTube——優酷土豆視頻網絡播出,觀衆人數較高,並得到梅賽德斯(Mercedes)贊助。

But last month the couple appear to have pushed their luck too far. During a visit to Kurdish fighters in northern Iraq they flew a camera-equipped drone over Isis military positions in neighbouring Syria and claimed on camera that the footage was used to identify jihadist targets.

然而上個月,這對夫婦似乎冒險過了頭。在訪問伊拉克北部的庫爾德戰鬥人員時,他們放飛一架裝有攝影裝備的無人機,飛過了ISIS在鄰近的敘利亞的軍事陣地,並在節目中聲稱,視頻內容曾被用於識別聖戰分子目標。

Mr Zhang also said the Kurdish YPG fighters gave the footage to the French air force for three bombing raids. The French embassy in Beijing declined to comment on the claims, as did a representative for the Kurdish YPG militia in Germany.

張昕宇還說,庫爾德人民保衛軍(YPG)將視頻內容交給法國空軍,由其實施了三次空襲。駐北京的法國大使館以及德國的YPG代表都拒絕對此置評。

After the episodes depicting the drone reconnaissance were aired last month, the show was suspended and the couple returned to China. The homepage of the show has been removed by host Youku Tudou, and none of the final four episodes, which deal with IS, has been viewable on the Chinese internet. Social media postings and search terms about these episodes have been blocked, a sure sign of China’s “great firewall” at work.

在記錄無人機偵察的畫面上月播出後,該節目被暫停播放,張昕宇夫婦也返回了中國。節目主頁已從優酷土豆網站上移除,而涉及伊斯蘭國的最後四集節目在中國的互聯網上都找不到。關於這幾集的社交網絡發帖和搜索內容都被屏蔽,顯然受到中國“長城防火牆”的干預。

Youku Tudou declined to comment on why the popular show was abruptly halted.

優酷土豆對於該熱播節目爲何突然停播拒絕置評。

In their last post on Weibo, China’s version of Twitter, on December 3, the couple said: “We are all well, recently the show has been suspended, there are a lot of theories out there. Thank you for your concern, don’t worry about us! If all goes smoothly, the show will make a comeback soon!”

張昕宇夫婦在12月3日發出的最後一條微博(相當於中國版的Twitter)上說:“我們都很好!最近片子下線,各種各樣的聲音都有,謝謝大家的惦記,請大家不用擔心!如果一切順利的話片子會在不久之後重新上線!”

Beijing does not disclose its reasons for censoring online content but two people familiar with the matter said the show was suspended amid fears of a backlash by Isis, which killed its first Chinese hostage on November 19.

中國當局不公開在線內容審查的具體原因,但熟悉此事的兩名人士透露,該節目停播是出於對遭ISIS報復的擔憂,該組織已於11月19日處決了第一名中國人質。

The two most provocative episodes appear to have been aired on November 4 and 11, before Fan Jinghui was executed, according to the weekly broadcast schedule, though as they have been removed the air date could not be confirmed.

根據每週播出時間表,最具煽動性的兩集節目似乎分別在11月4日和11日播出,正好在樊京輝被處決之前。然而因節目已被移除,具體播出時間無法證實。

The November 4 episode, viewable on US-based YouTube, showed Mr Zhang and Ms Liang giving Kurdish fighters body armour, helping them load a machine gun and piloting the drone. The November 11 episode showed Mr Zhang telling the camera: “The Kurds turned in the footage from our drones over to the French, and the French military made three air strikes using the material from our footage near the Kurdish frontline. It had a great effect. This is quite consoling for us.”

從服務器位於美國的YouTube上可以看到,在11月4日播出的節目中,張、樑夫婦向庫爾德戰鬥人員發放防彈衣,幫助他們爲機槍裝彈,並操縱航拍無人機。11月11日播出的節目則可看到張昕宇在鏡頭前說:“庫爾德人將我們航拍飛機獲得的視像交給了法國,法國軍方使用我們從庫爾德前線獲得的視頻資料實施了三次空襲。效果很好,對我們來說是很大的安慰。”

Military experts interviewed questioned the claim, saying French forces have drones of their own, though it is possible the footage was shared with the French along with other intelligence about Isis positions.

受訪的軍事專家質疑了這一說法,稱法軍有自己的無人機,儘管這段視頻有可能跟其他有關ISIS陣地的情報一起與法國方面分享。
