I'm an American, don't call me a Chinese girl
Pick up the bowl to eat, put down the bowl and scold the mother! With Asian skin color, Asian eyes, but do not admit that they are Chinese!
Obviously he has Chinese blood, but he still emphasizes that he is an American everywhere.
However, holding high the American flag, she wants to make money in China, and now she shares her daily life on Chinese social platforms.
Who is this girl? Why does she dare to be so arrogant, and what happens to her when she makes money in China?
Okay, I'm American
This incident happened in 2016 on a variety show about supermodels, which invited supermodel beauties from all over the country, and their bare faces and figures made netizens excited.
Asking these supermodels to participate in the competition is the way for this variety show to increase ratings, but I didn't expect that it was a Chinese girl named Qian Kaili who pushed this show to the forefront, what is going on?
Before the supermodel selection began, an international photographer named Cai Yu was about to shoot a set of promotional images about strength and beauty, focusing on the theme of sports, so he also invited many American football players to complete the shoot on the spot.
In order to better show the beauty of strength, he also invited two Asian girls, one of whom is the heroine Qian Kaili who will be mentioned this time.
Before he started shooting, he told the two supermodels that he needed them to show their energetic side to take more sensory photos, in fact, to put it bluntly, they needed to be able to jump as high as they could during the shooting.
The photographer spoke more tactfully, mainly because the girl was wearing a dozen centimeters of hate.
When Qian Kaili heard that she needed to be energetic, she was very interested, because she had been a very athletic girl since she was a child, so it was not difficult for her at all.
But she seems to be a little overconfident, even a little conceited.
During the filming, she realized the difficulty of this shooting, and she was filming this girl with her and jumping non-stop, but she stood aside, not wanting to move at all, even if she bounced slightly, her body began to shake from side to side, and even fell to the ground accidentally a few times.
The photographer also felt the difficulty of shooting, so he began to change his mind and asked the rugby player next to him to lift the two girls up, and inadvertently said that these two girls were Asian girls, a little weaker than the American girl's body, according to his original intention, he hoped that the rugby player next to him would also try not to hurt the two girls when lifting.
But it is unintentional to say, and it is intentional to listen.
The whole process is black-faced just because of an Asian girl
Although this is just photographer Cai Yu, a casual reminder, I didn't expect to usher in Qian Kaili's black face.
Because Qian Kaili can see from her appearance alone that she is a girl who is not easy to mess with, I thought that she didn't like others to say that she was thin, so she would keep blackface to complete the next shooting.
But unexpectedly, when the shooting was about to end, she walked directly to the photographer Cai Yu, and even put her arm around his shoulder and said that he was from Florida in the United States, not a Chinese girl he said, and finally emphasized that she didn't like others to call her a Chinese girl.
Qian Kaili's words directly ignited the anger in the photographer's heart on the spot.
Because the weather was very hot that day, and those rugby players were hired by photographers for a lot of money, and the photographers were basically soaking wet behind them when they only wore a short sleeve, not to mention the players in olive suits.
If it weren't for Qian Kaili's refusal to cooperate with the photographer's shooting, they would not have been exposed to the sun for a few hours, and even spoke wildly after the shooting, which directly made the photographer Cai Yu angry on the spot.
The extremely refuted response on the spot said that Qian Kaili is Asian, and her eyes are also in the shape of Asians, and she doesn't understand why she is not proud of her cultural background? It seems that in Qian Kaili's eyes, China is a very insulting word, otherwise why would she end up black-faced on the spot?
Later, Cai Yu photographer said in an interview that he had grown up in the United States like Qian Kaili, but he still knew his nationality very well and understood that he was Chinese, because he knew that he could not forget his roots.
Obviously, the photographers involved in the photographer look more like Americans, but he never says that he is American, but is proud of his ethnic heritage, but Qian Kaili does not think so.
In the face of Cai Yu's explanation, Qian Kaili did not take his words seriously, and proudly said that from the perspective of painting, he could only be regarded as half a Chinese.
Because the two had been arguing about their ancestry, which seriously affected the filming process, the photographer finally saw the players in olive suits, so he decisively stopped the argument and focused all his attention on the shooting.
But after the release of this variety show, it was precisely because of Qian Kaili's sentence Don't Call Me a Chinese Girl that it caused an uproar as soon as it was posted on the Internet, and overwhelming scolding followed, and on the contrary, the photographer aroused praise from countless audiences.
But the two of them are really close to each other, and they still meet in the final tryouts.
The tryouts suddenly changed their attitude
This time, Qian Kaili changed her previous posture as a player, and suddenly became a lot more restrained, not only saying that she was of mixed Chinese and French descent, but also said a lot of good things about China.
Her face made Cai Yu, who was sitting on the judges' seat, stunned, and directly interrupted her speech without saying a word, but said that Qian Kaili in his eyes was not the "begging" gesture she is now, and returned to the topic of blood, because he couldn't figure out why he would definitely say that he was an American.
In the face of his doubts, Kelly also explained, saying that because she has been living in the United States since she can remember, but because of her Asian appearance, she has been discriminated against in the United States, so this is the real reason why she calls herself an American.
But this sentence made the black judge next to her unable to sit still, because when it comes to discrimination, she understands this feeling better, but she has never denied her black identity, that is, because of this sentence, Qian Kaili was silent, and finally left the show in disgrace.
Originally, she thought that as long as she left this variety show, she would overwhelm all those doubts, but she didn't expect the audience to let her go, and many people posted his early performance on other variety shows, which was even more embarrassing.
Really think of yourself as an American
Because she has lived in the United States since she was a child, her personality is relatively straightforward, and her Asian appearance gives people a strong sense of contrast, so she quickly became popular in some variety shows, and many people like her unbeaten personality very much.
But she is the kind of person who guards against arrogance and rashness, because there are more and more people who like her, she gradually began to play all kinds of big names in the program group, and even some staff members hate her very much, and many people feel that she really has a beautiful skin, without the slightest emotional intelligence, and she has lost all her good popularity.
Her fame has plummeted, and her career has also ushered in a low period, and she used to be able to receive endorsements from some big names, but now many brands avoid her, so she has the idea of going back to China to make money.
Delusional desire to make money in China
Qian Kaili often posts some of her daily life on Chinese social platforms, basically using Chinese, even the mobile phone is also using Huawei, I don't know what she is doing with such a commotion?
But it seems that the audience doesn't eat this, that is, there are still many netizens sneering in her comment area, and now no matter what she says, she can't save the hearts of the Chinese people, which is completely her own fault.
What do you think of Qian Kaili saying that she doesn't like people calling her a Chinese girl?
