Music Competitions and Politics
yīn yuè音乐bǐ sài比赛yǒu shí hòu有时候huì会hé和zhèng zhì政治yǒu有guān xì关系 。
Music competitions sometimes have connections with politics.
xiàng像ōu zhōu gē chàng bǐ sài欧洲歌唱比赛hé和guó jì gē chàng bǐ sài国际歌唱比赛 ，hěn很duō多guó jiā国家dōu都huì会cān jiā参加 。
Like the Eurovision Song Contest and the International Song Contest, many countries participate.
rén men人们běn lái本来xī wàng希望yòng用yīn yuè音乐ràng让dà jiā大家gèng更yǒu hǎo友好 ，dàn但yǒu shí hòu有时候bǐ sài比赛biàn chéng变成le了guó jiā国家zhī jiān之间de的bǐ sài比赛 。
People originally hoped to use music to make everyone friendlier, but sometimes the competition turns into a contest between countries.
2025nián年 ，é luó sī俄罗斯shuō说yào要chóng xīn重新jǔ bàn举办guó jì国际gē chàng歌唱bǐ sài比赛 。
In 2025, Russia said it would restart the International Song Contest.
é luó sī俄罗斯shuō说zhè ge这个bǐ sài比赛bú shì不是zhèng zhì政治de的 ，zhǐ shì只是xiǎng想ràng让bù tóng不同guó jiā国家de的rén人yòng用yīn yuè音乐jiāo liú交流 。
Russia said this contest is not political, it just wants people from different countries to communicate through music.
qí shí其实 ，zhè ge这个bǐ sài比赛hé和ōu zhōu欧洲gē chàng歌唱bǐ sài比赛hěn很xiàng像 ，bǐ rú比如míng zì名字 、zhǔ chí rén主持人hé和wǔ tái舞台 。
Actually, this contest is very similar to the Eurovision Song Contest, for example in name, hosts, and stage.
yǐ qián以前 ，guó jì国际gē chàng歌唱bǐ sài比赛shì是zài在bō lán波兰jǔ bàn举办de的 ，hěn很duō多dōng ōu东欧guó jiā国家cān jiā参加 。
Previously, the International Song Contest was held in Poland, with many Eastern European countries participating.
xiàn zài现在 ，shì jiè世界shàng上yǒu有hěn很duō多bù tóng不同de的xiǎng fǎ想法 ，yīn yuè音乐bǐ sài比赛yě也huì会shòu dào受到yǐng xiǎng影响 。
Now, there are many different ideas in the world, and music competitions are also affected.
yǒu xiē有些rén人kàn看bǐ sài比赛shí时 ，huì会zhù yì注意biǎo yǎn表演zhě者de的guó jiā国家hé和tā men他们de的xiǎng fǎ想法 ，ér而bú shì不是zhǐ只tīng听yīn yuè音乐 。
Some people, when watching the competition, pay attention to the performers' countries and their ideas, not just the music.
suī rán虽然zhè yàng这样 ，yīn yuè音乐hái shì还是kě yǐ可以ràng让wǒ men我们liǎo jiě了解bù tóng不同de的wén huà文化 ，ràng让dà jiā大家yǒu有jī huì机会jiāo liú交流hé和xué xí学习 。
Even so, music can still help us understand different cultures and give everyone a chance to communicate and learn.
