A | 前阵子,美国《国会山报》登出一篇火气特别大的文章,标题就叫"特朗普为何要对美国海军宣战"。写文章的人叫克里斯·特鲁阿克斯,下笔一点没客气,直接怀疑这位总统脑子是不是不太清楚了,甚至用上了"痴呆"这个词。 
Clapping to the beat and humming the famous Chinese folk song "Jasmine Flower," one of the African delegates at the 7th China-Africa Media Cooperation Forum joined Unitree robots in an impromptu joint rendition of the classic Chinese melody, with the robots playing guitar and drums, in Beijing on Thursday.
The lively scene was observed as the 7th China-Africa Media Cooperation Forum officially opened in Beijing on Thursday, with the attendance of 33 minister-level delegates from African countries, marking a record-high level of participation. Participants also released the Joint Declaration of the 7th China-Africa Media Cooperation Forum.
Chinese and African guests held in-depth dialogues on a range of topics, including tech-empowered creative content, trade of audio-visual services, and the application of AI in radio, television and audio-visual sectors.
Gregoire Ndjaka, director general of the African Union of Broadcasting (AUB), said Chinese technology and equipment have made an important contribution to the development and modernization of broadcasting infrastructure in Africa.
He was very happy to confirm that, based on this cooperation, China donated equipment to the AUB Content Exchange Center located in the capital of Albania, and that the AUB has benefited greatly from it, Ndjaka said.
Ndjaka said there are significant opportunities to deepen cooperation, particularly in modern equipment, lightweight production and modern broadcasting systems. The AUB is preparing to establish a training center in Senegal's capital Dakar, which will host a pan-African broadcasting and television station, he noted.
The importance of access to Chinese technology was also highlighted by Mouhamadou El Bachir Diouf, a young participant from Senegal, who tried out Chinese-made VR glasses at the entrance to the forum.
Diouf told the Global Times that his country does not have such equipment and expressed hope that Chinese technologies and equipment could be introduced to Dakar as cooperation between the two sides develops.
Chernor Abduli Bah, Sierra Leone's Minister of Information and Civic Education, said China and Africa, within the framework of South-South cooperation, have a responsibility to ensure that their messages are communicated clearly.
"We are not here in competition with any entity," Bah said, stressing that China and Africa are seeking to foster a multilateral global order based on mutual respect, mutual benefit and the principle that every human being is equal.
He also called for global governance mechanisms to adapt to current realities, saying that the international order cannot simply continue to be defined by a framework established 70 years ago, as it no longer represents the realities and aspirations of many countries.
Whether involving the United Nations, international financial institutions or other global governance mechanisms, the international system should evolve to respond to changing realities, Bah said.
Evelyne Butoyi, Burundi's Minister of Communication and Media, said cooperation with China has brought tangible benefits to the country's broadcasting sector.
She cited a digital terrestrial television project through which Burundi and Chinese firm StarTimes jointly established Burundi Television Company. The project has improved television picture quality and enabled people in Burundi to access a wider range of better-produced programs, she said.
She also highlighted the "Access to Satellite TV for 10,000 African Villages" project carried out with StarTimes, saying that 500 villages in Burundi were included in the project. Set-top boxes were distributed free of charge to rural communities, allowing people in remote areas to watch digital television.
More than 80 Chinese TV series have appeared on African screens over the past two years, including "The Three-Body Problem" and "To the Wonder," according to an introduction at the opening ceremony.
China-Africa mutually beneficial cooperation, however, has drawn criticism from some Western media outlets. A recent New York Times report said that Chinese AI models are widely favored by African developers because they are cheap and freely available, potentially weakening US dominance in the global AI race.
Commenting on the report, Allawi Ssemanda, executive director of Uganda's Development Watch Center, told the Global Times, "The New York Times will always find a way to portray Africa as simply looking for something cheap."
He said African users choose Chinese AI models for reasons beyond cost, including their user-friendliness and the quality of information they provide.
"Personally, I know that if I use an AI model developed in the US, it may be good, but it may not give me the facts I am looking for because of global politics. If you use a Chinese-developed model, you can get what you want."
Ssemanda also rejected the notion that the affordability of Chinese AI should be viewed as a weakness. China, as part of the Global South, understands that making AI prohibitively expensive would limit access for developing countries, he said.
His comments point to a broader concern among African countries: for many developing nations, the question is not which country dominates the global AI race, but whether technological advances can be made accessible and translated into tangible development opportunities.
Thierry Lézin Moungalla, Minister of Communication and Media and government spokesperson of the Republic of the Congo, echoed this point, saying African countries continue to grapple with the digital divide.
"However, we can believe in the friendship, support and practical cooperation offered by China," Moungalla said.

B | 要知道《国会山报》平时报道国会消息很稳当,能骂得这么狠,说明白宫和军方之间的矛盾已经藏不住了。事情的导火索,是2026年8月13日签署的一份国家安全备忘录。 特朗普给国防部下了任务,60天内交方案,从第四艘福特级航母CVN-81开始,把电磁弹射器全拆了,换回老式蒸汽弹射。先进武器升降机也要改回液压那套老东西。 他给出的理由很随意,就说电磁太复杂、不靠谱,还是蒸汽用着省心。听着像家里换燃气灶,可对象是一艘造价一百多亿美元的核动力航母。

C | 麻烦就麻烦在,CVN-81早就开工了,船体分段陆陆续续进坞组装,配套的电磁弹射设备生产进度已经过半。承包商纽波特纽斯造船厂听到这个消息,估计当场就懵了。 换弹射系统可不是拧几颗螺丝那么简单。

D | 弹射器背后连着供电、蒸汽管路、甲板结构、舰体重心,动一个环节,全船都得跟着改。

E | 前面砸进去的钱多半打水漂,交付日期还得往后推。平心而论,福特级早期确实丢过美国海军的脸。 首舰福特号2017年交付后,电磁弹射器毛病一堆,武器升降机拖了好几年才装齐,五角大楼被国会骂过很多次。这些账都是真的。 可技术早期出问题,跟技术路线走错,根本是两码事。

F | 哪套复杂系统上舰不是磕磕绊绊过来的?当年蒸汽弹射器刚服役那会儿,同样折腾了很久。 再说电磁弹射的好处也很实在。

G | 推力可以精细调节,重达三十多吨的舰载机能弹,几吨重的无人机也能弹得动。 这在未来有人机和无人机混合编队作战的方向下,作用很大。蒸汽弹射虽然成熟,可占地方大、维护累人,还得烧掉一大堆淡水制蒸汽,管路又粗又长。 福特号今年上半年做过舰载机快速出动测试,数据据说比尼米兹级同类科目还漂亮。这时候拆掉电磁换蒸汽,等于开倒车。

H | 假如是海军自己做完完整测试,得出蒸汽方案更合适的结论,那调整设计还说得过去。可这回推动整件事的动力,来自总统一个人的偏好,不是任何一份靠谱的技术评估。 这才是让美国军事记者们真正着急的地方。

I | 航母毕竟不是家里装修,总统看哪个顺眼就换哪个,几十年积累的工业经验说推翻就推翻,放哪个国家都不像话。 《国会山报》那篇檄文就是在这个背景下出炉的。特鲁阿克斯本人还是共和党圈子里的老资格律师,能说出总统"认知能力在下降"这种话,几乎等于隔空指着白宫鼻子骂。 能让共和党自己人都写出这种评论,白宫内部到底乱成什么样,外人多少能猜到几分。

J | 这也不是他一个人的看法,美国主流媒体近半年来对特朗普健康状况的质疑,一直没停过。 美媒的担心也不是无中生有。特朗普这段时间不光盯着弹射器,还嫌弃新型航母的舰岛"不够好看",希望未来舰艇恢复更传统的外形。 舰岛的位置、大小、形状,都是根据雷达反射面积、气流干扰、指挥视野一点点算出来的,不是画图时随手涂上去的花纹。总统对着一艘百亿美元的战舰谈审美,海军工程师们只能干瞪眼。 更让人无语的,是他前不久公开把霍尔木兹海峡叫成"美国领土"。

K | 稍微懂点地理的都知道,这条海峡夹在伊朗和阿曼中间,离美国本土隔着大半个地球。 眼下美伊关系正紧绷,德黑兰对美方在波斯湾的军事存在本来就非常敏感。这种时候抛出这么一句话,等于给对手送把柄。

L | 伊朗外交部当天就发了强硬回应,把这句话当新证据用了起来。比弹射器争议更棘手的,其实是海军眼下的真实处境。 "亚伯拉罕·林肯"号航母长期泡在中东海域,连续海上巡航超过250天,舰上五千多号水兵和陆战队员挤在铁盒子里过日子。有士兵反映,部分补给跟不上,新鲜食物少,不少人瘦了一圈,心理压力也大。 美国海军协会的内刊陆续登过相关采访,家属团体已经开始给国会写联名信。碰到这些报道,特朗普的回应更让基层寒心。 他公开讲,航母部署时长"远远不够长",还拿二战时期的水兵举例,说人家一漂就是好几年。这话一出来,社交媒体上骂声一片。 海军内部有军官匿名跟美媒吐槽,白宫压根儿没心思听水兵们到底遇到什么困难,光顾着摆姿态了。军心这玩意儿一旦散了,靠总统在网上喊口号是收不回来的。 美国海军真正的病根,在造船厂产能萎缩、项目集体延期、成本层层失控,再加上海外任务摊得太多。福特级二号舰肯尼迪号的交付一拖再拖,弗吉尼亚级核潜艇一年造两艘的目标长期完不成,红海方向的护航消耗还让弹药库存吃紧。

M | 白宫要真心疼海军,就该冲这些真问题下刀,而不是把精力花在换弹射器、改舰岛外形这种表面文章上。特鲁阿克斯那篇文章的收尾更狠。 他写道,总统一个人犯糊涂已经够糟糕,更可怕的是共和党上下没人敢站出来公开质疑,反而一个劲儿地配合这场瞎折腾。这句话戳中了华盛顿政治生态的痛点。 国会山上的共和党议员心里未必都同意,可初选压力和党内纪律压着,谁也不愿意先冒头。这种沉默,比总统本人的糊涂更让人担心。 从我们中国的角度看,这场闹剧也留下不少参考价值。武器装备发展有自己的节奏,一届政府的个人意志压过工程论证,代价就是几百亿美元和好几年时间白扔。 美国造船业眼下的困境,靠一份总统备忘录扭转不了。谁能沉下心把工业底子和技术积累做扎实,谁在下一轮大国较量里就能站得更稳。 文章登出去以后,华盛顿舆论场翻腾了好几天。五角大楼一直没正面表态,海军部长办公室只用一句"正在评估相关指示"打发过去。 60天期限到了之后,方案到底能不能真的落地,CVN-81这艘大船最后长什么样,就看接下来这两个月白宫、国防部和国会之间怎么掰扯了。摆在我们面前的,是一个超级大国在内耗中一道道裂开的口子返回,查看更多。
