ccp still promote hou's song, but removed his "not so harmonius" part of lyrics (about opium war). rumored hou is singing at bars in Guangzhou area.

and we should give patriots like hou some excuses, at that time many share simple pure patriotism sincerely wishing china strong and better. samething about another popular patriotic song 'my Chinese heart", the last part of lyrics was surely "racism":

"even if born out side of china, you still are chinese"
