In addition to wearing masks, passengers must also hold a green health code, a negative nucleic acid certificate within 48 hours, and a normal body temperature. In addition, passengers need to scan the “place code” when getting on the bus.
The official media followed up with propaganda, filming and interviewing citizens’ rides to show the picture of Shanghai’s unblocking and traffic recovery.
State media reporters interviewed several passengers, according to Shanghai Radio.subwayOne of the citizens of Line 3, one of whom was a lady surnamed Xu, said, “I am very happy today because it has been closed for nearly two months.”

Ms. Xu said, “I am very happy today because I have been locked for nearly two months. Since I was born, I have never experienced such a day. Being locked at home and unable to go out is a big joke.”
In the video, while Ms. Xu was speaking, the official media reporter had quietly moved the microphone away. In the end, the “dissonance” content in this interview was excluded from the “main theme” of the official media.
The Epoch Times reporter noticed that the phrase “light is ahead” only appeared in the official media’s text version of the report, but not in the video. The video of the interview with Ms. Xu shot by the state media was composed of at least five shots.
The leaked video has aroused widespread concern and heated discussion among netizens. Some netizens said: “Shanghai’s inter-district public transportation is gradually recovering. The reporter interviewed a Shanghai aunt and asked her to talk about how she felt about taking the subway. As the aunt spoke, the reporter’s microphone became farther and farther away, and the camera became more and more biased. ”
Some netizens mocked the reporter’s tone and sneered, “Reporter: Why didn’t the leaders in the stage arrange actors today, and they were doing live broadcasts, so that I couldn’t hide from the microphone.”
“The one who was popular all over the Internet was Aunt Xu who was lucky enough to take the subway line 3. She accidentally told the truth during a live interview with a TV station, and watched the microphone and camera gradually move away. However, the follow-up deeds were still reported. The positive energy of the sun, Aunt Xu became an actress without care, and the producer even prepared the script and lines.”
At the same time, The Paper, headquartered in Shanghai, interviewed a woman in a subway car. The official media reporter encountered the same embarrassing voice. The interviewed woman told the reporter, “It’s really hard for us here.” As soon as it fell, the reporter quietly moved the microphone away.
The lady continued: “I have been here for more than 50 days, and the (government) materials have not been distributed.” The official media reporter hurriedly interrupted the conversation: “Okay, okay, I wish you a smooth journey” and ended the interview .
According to multiple videos taken by Shanghai citizens, despite the authorities’ announcement to resume local public transportation, many citizens’ travel is still restricted; even if there are no passengers at the bus stop, the bus is still running step by step.
A Shanghai citizen went out to purchase daily necessities with a permit. When he filmed a video, he found that the government had set up isolation facilities at some key intersections, prohibiting the passage of people and vehicles. In many public places, citizens need different documents issued by the official to be allowed to enter. On both sides of the road, people lined up in long lines to prepare for shopping, and many shops have not yet opened, and the market seems deserted.
Due to the limited time of the official pass, the citizen was worried that the pass would be “invalid” if he queued for a long time, so he hurried back to the community without buying supplies.
