白宮副幕僚長PO影片,白宮在川習二會的晚宴,安排軍樂隊演唱音樂劇《悲慘世界》,並唱出象徵反極權統治的名言「你有聽到人民在唱歌嗎?」(美聯社)

中國國家主席習近平訪美,白宮24日舉辦晚宴,期間安排軍樂隊演唱音樂劇《悲慘世界》(Les Misérables)中的曲目《只待明日》(One Day More),這首歌的歌詞有象徵反極權統治的名言「你有聽到人民在唱歌嗎?」(Do you hear the people sing?),似乎在當面暗酸習近平與中共政權高高在上,對人民苦難充耳不聞。

白宮副幕僚長史卡維諾(Dan Scavino)在X平台PO文及影片表示,川普夫婦在白宮東廳舉辦晚宴,招待習近平與其夫人彭麗媛,影片中可以看到身著軍裝的美國軍樂隊人員演唱《只待明日》,樂聲慷慨激昂,而約在影片50秒處可以清楚聽到「Do you hear the people sing?」

根據維基百科說明,《只待明日》為《悲慘世界》第一幕最後一曲,劇中由青年學生領導的共和黨人,即將發動1832年巴黎共和黨人起義,試圖推翻君主制,而第二幕第一曲的曲目名也是《你有聽到人民在唱歌嗎?》。
