So everyone began to consciously boycott Japanese products, wanting to use this way to make Japan pay, and reflected in the entertainment industry, many foreign artists have been accused by online violence and Chinese people.
Among them, the first to be blamed is Japanese actor Koji Yano, and this is not only because he has a Japanese nationality, but also because netizens have picked up the fact that he once insulted China.

On August 24, Japan began to discharge nuclear-contaminated water into the sea on its own, which triggered strong criticism from the Chinese people, so everyone began to consciously boycott Japanese products in order to express anger and resistance.
And some Japanese artists in China are also unable to escape this disaster, including Japanese actors who can often be seen in various film and television dramas, Koji Yano, and many netizens have questioned their views on this incident under his social account.
Even some netizens transferred their anger at the discharge of sewage to Koji Yano, accusing him of why he chose to be silent at this time, wondering if Koji Yano's position is the same as the Japanese government, supporting the discharge of pollution into the sea?
Public opinion intensified, many netizens said that after this incident, it is difficult to look at Koji Yano with a normal heart, after all, people's hearts are made of meat, and Koji Yano as a Japanese, the position he represents is naturally different from the countrymen.
But some netizens said that I hope everyone can be rational, those countries' decisions and policies are not Yano Koji alone, some netizens paranoid to attribute all the national actions to him, which is very wrong, just like after the island incident, some people smashed their compatriots Nissan cars on the street.
There is also some truth in these people's statements, before this, Koji Yano did present a very good image in public, although he was originally from Japan, but he did not hide his liking for China in the slightest.
Not only can he speak fluent Chinese, but even his wife is an authentic Chinese Sichuan girl, and even after giving birth to his daughter, Koji Yano transferred her to Chinese nationality, which shows that his attitude towards China is very friendly.
And even after returning to his own country, Koji Yano did not hide his love for China, and openly expressed his appreciation for China to his native people in the program, which was very touching to the Chinese people.
Although Koji Yano received a lot of white eyes in domestic entertainment in the early years because of his identity as a Japanese, relying on the respect he showed for Chinese culture, the wind criticism was still reversed.
For this reason, Koji Yano was also boycotted by Japanese netizens, who felt that Koji Yano was holding Chinese stinky feet, not hesitating to slander his motherland, and even his personal website in Japan was not spared and was deliberately destroyed.
However, for these criticisms and abuses, Koji Yano did not pay attention to it and continued to develop his career in China, but unfortunately, with the development and changes of the international situation, Koji Yano can no longer appear in the public eye as frequently as before, and can only occasionally publish his daily life in some media.
But it is such a representative figure who symbolizes the friendship between the two countries, in this nuclear sewage incident, some of Koji Yano's previous scandals were inevitably involved, so netizens could no longer bear it and attacked him.

As early as before coming to China, Koji Yano had been running in the Japanese entertainment industry for several years, but because there was no progress, he set his sights on China.
However, leaving home to develop in a new place is a big challenge for anyone, and Koji Yano has also made a long time of mental preparation before he made up his mind to come to China to become an actor.
While studying in Beijing, he was looking for a job, probably by God's mercy, when the crew of a war drama was looking for actors to play the emperor of Japan.
Koji Yano went to the interview with the mentality of giving it a try, but he didn't expect to be favored by the director, thinking that he was a good-looking Japanese who could just play the role of the emperor, and since then Koji Yano has become a "ghost professional".
But the road to success is always bumpy, Koji Yano can get the role because of his Japanese identity, but because of this reason is not favored by many people, after all, the feud between China and Japan can not be resolved with a fluttering sentence.
When on the set, as long as Koji Yano tells others that he is Japanese, those with a bad temper will leave on the spot, and a little better is just a nod of the head, such an awkward atmosphere Koji Yano himself can naturally feel.
Just when he was very distressed by this, a friend told Koji Yano that he should learn to face up to his identity, and although there are rumors from time to time now, his performance in film and television dramas can play a role in reversing people's stereotypes.
Koji Yano was suddenly cheerful after listening to it, and began to face his work positively, and also won the opportunity to host the popular variety show "Every Day Up", which was liked by more people.
But I don't know if it was the pursuit of fans, or the pressure to return to Japan, Koji Yano's speech on a Japanese variety show almost ruined the good reputation he had accumulated in China over the years.
It happened in the Sino-Japanese difference he talked about in the show, Koji Yano believes that Chinese is not worthy of a dog, saying that he often sees some people who take dogs for walks in Beijing who don't care about dogs defecating in the open, and by the way, this is definitely not the case in Japan.
In the last sentence, it was also said that some people in China still defecate in the open, and after the program was broadcast, this remark was unexpectedly known by the Chinese people, and Yano Koji was pushed to the forefront for a while.
Many netizens said that they did not expect that Koji Yano, who has always claimed to love China, would say such ignorant words, and the meaning of the words is not that Chinese does not pay attention to hygiene.
There are also people who say that Koji Yano is duplicitous, saying that China is good in China, and pandering to the bad things that the Japanese say Chinese when he returns to Japan, this person's mind is really tricky.
And when he spoke, didn't he think that as a public figure, he should be cautious in his words and actions, but if there is a little inappropriate, he will be caught, but Koji Yano still did such a thing, which is really unacceptable.
Although Koji Yano also came forward to explain what happened and his own apologies, the heartbroken people still said that they could not understand and did not accept it.
Now, sharp-eyed netizens have found that on the day Japan discharged nuclear sewage, Koji Yano also posted a funny video on social media, seemingly not taking this major event related to the fate of mankind to heart.
Even the IP address of his published video is in Japan, which has caused public anger, no wonder netizens feel that Koji Yano's position has changed, and the previous position on the Chinese side no longer exists.
But thinking about it, although Koji Yano once said that China is his second hometown, doesn't there still be a necessary premise in front of him, that is, he was born in Japan.
Although no matter how much he likes China, the education he received since childhood is still instilled in him by Japan, and there are naturally inevitable contradictions between him and the Chinese people, but in any case, Koji Yano's remarks of "insulting China" by taking up his rice bowl do exist, and this has also caused him to suffer from his current situation.
And this kind of foreign artist while earning high remuneration in China, while returning to China to make insulting remarks, has really happened many times, and it is no wonder that netizens are particularly sensitive to this aspect.
«○●—[Write at the end]—●○»
In the face of Japan's shameful act of discharging nuclear sewage, Koji Yano did not speak out as soon as netizens and fans expected, but responded in a silent way, which is really chilling.
And the "insulting China" remarks he was picked up before really did not want Koji Yano to love China as he used to show, and he couldn't complain that he was now being eaten back.
