Baidu 10 Mythical Creatures
The Baidu 10 Mythical Creatures (), alternatively Ten Baidu Deities, was initially a humorous hoax from the interactive encyclopedia Baidu Baike which became a popular and widespread Internet meme in the People's Republic of China in early 2009.〔(【贴图】百度十大神兽_水能载舟亦能煮粥 )〕
These hoaxes, ten in number, originated in response to increasingly pervasive and draconian online censorship in China, and have become an icon of citizens' resistance to censorship.〔〔Bobbie Johnson, (ETech: The truth about China and its filthy puns ), The Guardian, 13 March 2009〕
==Details==
Arising in early 2009,〔(山寨版“动物世界”介绍草泥马走红网络_资讯_凤凰网 ) (Phoenix TV official website)〕 the meme initially began as a series of vandalised contributions to Baidu Baike, through the creation of humorous articles describing a series of fictional creatures, with each animal with names vaguely referring to Chinese profanities (utilizing homophones and characters using different tones).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=CCTV.com )〕 Eventually, images, videos (such as faux-documentaries) and even a song regarding aspects of the meme were released. It was thought that the Baidu hoaxes were written in response to recent strict enforcements of keyword filters in China, introduced in 2009, which attempted to eliminate all forms of profanity.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=违法和不良信息举报中心 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=谴责与曝光_违法和不良信息举报中心 )〕 The Baidu Baike "articles" initially began with "Four Mythical Creatures" (The "Grass Mud Horse", "French-Croatian Squid", "Small Elegant Butterfly" and "Chrysanthemum Silkworms"), and were later extended to ten.
The memes became widely discussed on Chinese Internet forums, and most users concluded that the initial aim of the hoaxes were to satirise and ridicule the pointlessness of the new keyword filters. The meme is interpreted by most Chinese online as a form of direct protest rather than motiveless intentional disruption to Baidu services.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Chinese Bloggers' Respond to the Internet Crackdown - China Digital Times (CDT) )〕 After the hoaxes were posted, news of the articles spread quickly online on joke websites, popular web portals and forums〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=福步外贸论坛(FOB Business Forum) -中国第一外贸论坛 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=百度贴吧 )〕 such as Baidu Tieba, while a large number of posts were sent on the Tencent QQ Groups chat service. There have also been various parodies of the meme created (such as the ''"Baidu 10 Legendary Weapons"''〔(百度十大神器 )〕 and ''"Baidu 10 Secret Delicacies"''〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=HugeDomains.com - Leesum.com is for sale (Leesum) )〕〔(卧槽，又来一个！百度十大神秘美食~~ )〕). Meme references can be found throughout Chinese websites.〔Example of meme following: (CCTV Fire: Funny Photoshops By Chinese Netizens ), chinaSMACK (Resulting from manipulated images of the Beijing Television Cultural Center fire)〕
