Chu An-ping is one of the most famous liberalist in the recent and present epoch of china .As the sponsor of"Observation"which has very high prestige in the liberalism of china. Because of the political reasons, the research on Chu An-ping is limited to the history facts, and there has few writings about Chu An-ping's news cerebration. For this reason, under the macroscopic background of liberalism thought in china, this article researches Chu An-ping's newspapers and periodicals practice and his trajectory all of his life, aimed at making a breakthrough on the research of Chu An-ping's news cerebration.In the end of the 17th century, liberalism turned up in the Europe, and this theory puts into practice, especially on the political structural and the press actions in the end of 18th and early of 19th .This theory is mainly to research the relationship among the Public, Media and the Govermoment, which core spirit and core contents are the independent of media and the freedom of the public. It is thought that the press should be the freedom market of opinion, which is a freedom enterprise of autonomy.The liberalism news cerebration turned up in the end of Qing dynasty, which is under the background of the recent western papers and periodicals came to the eastern. Prior to the Opium War, the missionary who came to china to launch the newspaper, because of the feeling of disabled on observation policy, they recommended this thought to Chinese. From then on, Hong Rengan wrote"Zi Zheng Xin Pian"that mentioned"The news"for special. And after him, Wang Tao, Kang Youwei, Liang Qichao and others person with breadth of vision of Qing dynasty put the theory into the practice.After the"May Movement", with the development of"Xin Wen Hua Movement", a lot of newspaper organizers are appeared. Hu Shi, Zhang Jiluan, Chu An-ping has the most representative. Hu Shi made the liberalism news thoughts as the organization principle and guiding ideology of the recent publication of china, at the same time, ,as the chief editor of Xin Ji"DA GUNG Daily", Zhang Jiluan found the"Four No"principle which make the folk publication of china go further. It signed that the Chinese capitalist class media went mature. Compare with the first generation of the liberalist like Hu Shi, on his own initiative, Chu An-ping inherited the traditions about"literati demonstration"from the predecessor liberalist. Contrast to the predecessor like Hu Shi and Zhang Jiluan, Chu An-ping with others intellectuals had more interest in political. Chu An-ping thought that the public was not only political parties and groups but also all of the people to skilled at, all of the political party and the opposition party should accept the criticizes from the liberalist and the folk.As a steadfast liberalist, the liberalism of Chu An-ping formed step by step. Chu An-ping studied in Guang Hua University from 1928 to 1932, at that time, Guang Hua University was a school with thick liberalism thought. Afterwards, he became to a very famous liberalism intellectuals after Hu Shi, that experiences was very important for him. In 1936, he studied in the political department which belonged to the economy College of London University in UK taught by famous professor named Laski. When he studied there, the Constitutionalism and freedom of human rights gave him deep impression, which made him believe that the liberalism is the root cause to make country prosperous and strong, the character of Chinese people could be reconstructed by good education style, and then, we can found a Democratic country and Freedom society. This experience of studied in UK made him became a thoroughgoing liberalist.From 1931 when he wrote"The Opinion About The Question Between China And Japan"to 1945, he changed a lot from interested in the current situation and politics to respect the opinion of freedom when he wrote"Literature Period"as an chief editor, and at last, he gave up editorial writer of"Center Daily"in order to pursue the news freedom. Chu An-ping's news thoughts of liberalism established step by step. We can get the conclusion from he gave up the position on which he could earn a lot of money that freedom of news is more important than economic condition and society position to Chu An-ping. It is a start for Chu an-ping's news freedom practice when he worked in"Impersonality"as chief editor, his news freedom practice which has most importance started from then. It is emphasized by him, the Objection was not a place just for a few people for expression, but pub iced for all of the people. During the period of Objection, he had become to a thoroughgoing liberalist, liberalism news thought is a mainline of Objection. The freedom which he understood is that expression has influence on government's decision making, and we can have an advanced publications like"The Times in London".After the Sino-Japanese War Victory in 1945, most of liberalism intellectuals hoped that through launched publications to express opinion about country state and then actuate our country go in the prosperous and strong way. The"Observe"was launched under that history background. On the inaugural number, he released an article named our interest and attitude, in fact, it is foreword of"Observe", he established basic position for"Observe"do things,"Democracy, Freedom, Progress, Rational which made people savored". The foreword of Observe was declaration on the freedom to Freedom of Chinese liberalist. Liberalist had an overriding desire to posture to interfere with the conduct of public affairs, including Chu An-ping, almost all of the authors of the Observe thought that, Chinese intellectuals have the power to the criticism and supervision, and hope to force the Government to the comments in the direction of constitutional democracy"Observe"issued two and a half years, the highest number issued is 100, 5,000. The number of"Observe"reader, on the assumption that an average of 10 individuals each reading, it's actually about one million readers or more. "Observe" as a scholar of political publications, full of intellectuals of the era that the future of our country and the worries of vision. They do not participate in politics, but it does not mean they are not interested in politics, compared with the politicians who are truly concerned about the destiny of a group.As offended the ruling Kuomintang authorities, December 24, 1948 Shanghai Guard Command, the Shanghai Bureau of Social and police were sent to the newspaper, announced the seizure "Observe" groups, and issued the arrest warrant for Chu An-ping."Observe"was closed down, marking an era of liberalism in China's end. The author believes that the conflict between the value of instrumental rationality and rational, as well as the conflict between liberal news and China's objective is the main reason that the loss of the Chinese ideal of liberalism news for disillusionment.As a liberal values and ideals, liberalism emphasized the value of the individual and individual freedom, but in modern China liberalism tend to like to take liberal concept of democracy to achieve national prosperity. When the value of liberalism as individuals and as a powerful tool in conflict liberalism, "Liren" and "statehood", "Enlightenment" and the "national salvation" contradictory and not take into account, China's liberals would choose the latter , and liberalism ideas will certainly press together toward extinction. On the other hand, for a long time, China has been under totalitarian rule, a handful of the ruling class in charge of the country's economic lifeline and the right to speak, the state of China's national conditions liberals lack the necessary legal guarantees and independent economic base China's liberalism provide us with the class, and always limited to the part of intellectuals. As a result, China's Liberalism is always only a movement of intellectuals.Chu An-ping's tragedy is the best interpretation about the political environment of China's national conditions. Chu Anping is one of the most representative figures in that era , the study about Chu an-ping's liberalism news thought not only for a once-off brilliance of thought, but also for the spirit of the nation ,which is the direction of development Discussion.
