Information released by @中PoliceAnhui on Weibo

Hainan’s slogan to persuade people to fight has become popular: Don’t fight, lose in hospital, win in jail: “If you lose in hospital, win in jail”, Hainan Public Security Bureau "Golden sayings" extracted from long-term mass work. It is not only an exploration of discourse system and expression, but also an upgrade of social governance ideas, reflecting the values ??and humanistic care of the public security law enforcement department.

“Don’t fight and lose, and win and be hospitalized and go to jail.” This is a slogan retweeted by Anhui police’s official Weibo not long ago. As soon as this "slang" came out, it quickly became popular, attracting police officers and many media outlets across the country to forward it on their official accounts and comment on it from netizens.

It turns out that the slogan came from the Furongtian Police Station of the Public Security Bureau of Baisha Li Autonomous County, Hainan Province. Since the slogan was posted, "No fights or fights occurred during the Spring Festival."

Why did the police's "anti-fighting slogans" become popular on the Internet? Is it really "effective"? Recently, through interviews and investigations, reporters found that "losing in hospital, winning in jail" is a lesson learned from the long-term mass work of the local public security agency. "Golden Sentences" are crude but rational. It is not only an exploration of a discourse system and expression, but also an upgrade of social governance ideas, embodying the values ??and humanistic care of the Hainan Public Security Law Enforcement Department.

Use "Fa" in a dialect that people can understand

Before the Spring Festival in 2017, two young men from the state-owned Furongtian Farm had a drunken conflict over trivial matters, which turned into a big fight. A young man was injured. As a result, the one who lost the fight was hospitalized, and the one who won the fight was taken to the detention center.

“Considering that young people who go out to work will return to their hometowns during the Chinese New Year, and the people in the jurisdiction have the habit of drinking during the Chinese New Year, I am worried that villagers will cause conflicts again after drinking, so I thought of hanging this slogan, hoping to inspire It serves as a warning," said Xu Yingyu, director of Furongtian Police Station.

The picture shows two slogans hung by Hainan police.

On February 28, the reporter learned from the Baisha County Public Security Bureau that this slogan had actually been hung as early as last year. This was not the first initiative of Furongtian Police Station. It was first investigated by Hainan Qifang Town. Written by Hu Xiaodong, director of the Miao Police Station, the original text is "Don't fight. If you lose, you will be hospitalized. If you win, you will be jailed." This slogan has also been published in the internal working group of the county's public security organs, and everyone thinks it is good.

“Actually, the birth of this slogan did not happen overnight, but came from long-term mass work.” Hu Xiaodong told reporters on March 1. In the usual publicity and education work on the rule of law, due to the generally low cultural level of local residents, the villagers simply cannot understand the legal provisions and have achieved little success. Therefore, the police tried to use "dialect" that ordinary people can understand to explain "the law", which is simple, straightforward and effective.

In the opinion of Cai Hong, the instructor of Furongtian Police Station, the best effect in spreading the law is to lean down and be grounded. In this slogan, they did not quote scriptures or emphasize any preaching, but used the simplest language to analyze the consequences of the fight. Sure enough, since this banner was put up, no fights occurred in the Furongtian Police Station area during the Spring Festival.

“Although the obvious improvement in public security is inseparable from the work done by the police before and after the Spring Festival, hanging slogans can indeed serve as a warning.” Xu Yingyu said. Before the Spring Festival, the local police carried out various publicity on the rule of law to villagers by hanging warning slogans and visiting households in villages. At the same time, they also strengthened security patrols and prevention before and after the Spring Festival.

Bozhou Public Security Online: There is nothing wrong with this! Just remember it all.

After the Anhui police posted the “anti-fighting slogan” on their official WeChat account, many police official WeChat accounts expressed their approval by liking it.

It is understood that the Spring Festival is a period when people’s leisure and entertainment activities are concentrated, and it is also a period when social security cases and mass conflicts occur frequently. It is not uncommon for quarrels between people to escalate to the level of fights. Only after the impulsiveness caused trouble did the parties involved regret their mistakes.

“It is written in the vernacular of our people, which is closer to life. You can know what it means at a glance, and at the same time it is profound.

"On March 1, at the state-owned Furongtian Farm, when a reporter asked if he could remember this "anti-fighting slogan" at once, resident Xiao Wang said this.

A good slogan is not only concise and concise, but also concise and concise. It can also make people understand at a glance and provide ideological guidance. From the perspective of the principle of effective communication, the simpler the truth and the more vivid the language, the better. This will have the lowest communication cost and the best effect. "The popularity of the slogan is not accidental.

During the interview, the reporter also learned that behind the "anti-fight slogan", there is also the unremitting efforts of the local police in ideological and cultural construction. "Do management work , we must first make people's ideological work practical, detailed and in place. Only when the ideological understanding is unified can the subsequent work be neat and uniform. " Ma Qiongcai, member of the Standing Committee of the Baisha County Party Committee and director of the County Public Security Bureau, said. They have grasped the fundamentals of ideology and culture. In recent years, the county's public security agencies have vigorously promoted ideological and cultural construction, enhanced cohesion and centripetal force, and assisted the upgrading of public security work. < /p>

It is difficult to find a market for authoritarian dialogue and communication

With the changes in society, propaganda slogans are becoming more and more down-to-earth and people-friendly. Propaganda has become an irreversible trend of the times.

Sociology believes that fighting, as a kind of social conflict, is an external expression of people's inner dissatisfaction in society's atomization, interest fragmentation and interpersonal relationships. At a time when relations are drying up, "friction can easily break out." Many times, fights do not originate from conflicts of interest in the core areas, but from trivial disputes of temper.

" tells people directly and vividly: "There is no winner in a fight", which invisibly enhances the public's value recognition of "fighting is not advisable".

On the one hand, "anti-fight slogans" have a strong purpose and On the other hand, it also has distinct industry characteristics and characteristics of the times. Some experts pointed out that with the advent of the self-media era, the trend of decentralization has become more and more obvious, and authoritarian dialogue and communication will have less and less market. The "prevention slogan" that incorporates "empathy" and "empathy" shortens the distance between different social roles by changing from "looking down" to "looking down".

In fact, it is similar to "preventing confrontation". There are many warning slogans on the Internet: "If you win, you will lose everything; if you lose, you will be paralyzed." "The police will not close during the Chinese New Year: if you participate in a fight from now until the sixth day of the new year, you will receive a pair of exquisite platinum bracelets and a chance to win 10 days in detention." Tour, you will enjoy a 15-day luxury tour package if you fight in groups. The more you spend, the more discounts you will get, and there will also be a "detention center New Year gift package"...

The warning effect of these simple and humorous slogans is often far better than traditional banners. However, no matter what kind of slogans are used to persuade people to fight, the ultimate goal is to raise the awareness of the rules in the whole society and let people understand: since fighting will inevitably lead to losers, why "hurt each other"?
