　　BEIJING, Dec. 16 (Xinhuanet) — Another series of food safety scandals, and this time, it’s China’s high-end liquor industry that’s feeling the heat. It started last month when plasticizer was found in Bai Jiu produced by Jiuguijiu.
　　北京，12月16日（新华网）— 又一食品系列的安全丑闻，这次轮到中国的高端白酒行业处于水深火热之中。上个月开始，酒鬼酒生产的白酒被发现含有有塑化剂。

　　Plasticizers can harm the liver, kidneys and reproductive system. Now, another famous drink – Moutai Jiu – made by Kweichow Moutai – has been accused by an anonymous report of also containing the chemical.
　　塑化剂会伤害肝脏、肾脏和生殖系统。现在，另一个著名酒业—茅台酒—由贵州茅台生产—被匿名举报也含有塑化剂。

　　Kweichow Moutai suspended stock market trading for one day, after the report from Hong Kong was posted online. The report shows 3.3 milligrams of plasticizer — that’s nearly 50 percent above Hong Kong health limits. The Hong Kong report was posted by a person with the nickname “Shui Jinghuang”. He said he sent the sample to Hong Kong because he didn’t get a reply from Moutai in time.
　　香港的报告在网上发布之后，贵州茅台暂停股票市场交易一天。香港报告显示有3.3毫克的塑化剂—这比香港的卫生限制超过将近50%。香港的报告是一个绰号叫“水晶皇”的人发布的。他说因为没有从茅台公司及时得到回复，才把样品送到香港检测的。

　　The following day, the company quoted findings by the national food supervision body and other organizations, which say its liquor meets national standards. Kweichow Moutai responded, saying it doubts the credibility of the test. The company pointed out that there’s no batch identification of the sample and that the layout appears to be faked.
　　第二天，该公司援引由国家食品监管机构和其他组织的调查结果，表示它的酒符合国家标准。贵州茅台表示，他们怀疑香港那份报告的可信度。该公司指出，样品没有批次识别，很明显是伪造的。

　　Yuan Renguo, Board Chairman of Kweichow Moutai, said, “Someone wanted to take advantage of public food safety awareness. They’ve made up this food safety issue. They wanted to create panic, do harm to China’s liquor industry and the interests of investors, in order to make quick money for themselves. ”
　　贵州茅台的董事会主席袁仁国表示，“有人想利用公众食品安全意识。他们编造了这次食品安全问题。他们为了使自己赚快钱，想制造恐慌，危害中国白酒行业和投资者的利益。”

　　Moutai’s chief engineer, Wang Li, says she’s confident about Moutai’s quality.
　　茅台的首席工程师王丽表示，她对茅台的质量有信心。

　　Safe or not safe?
　　安全还是不安全？

　　That remains the simple question puzzling people across the country.
　　这仍然是令全国人民费解的问题。
