1. Unveiling the opening ceremony in reverse order of Qian Kaili's current situation: she withdrew from the public eye due to controversy, and her statement of returning to China has attracted public criticism
Back then, Qian Kaili's experience on the Chinese reality show "Falling in Love with a Supermodel" caused an uproar. This Chinese-French mixed-race girl with a graceful oriental charm and bright Western-style appearance could have carved out a world of her own in the modeling industry with her unique temperament, however, because of her denial and avoidance of her Asian ancestry, countless people sighed.
Recently, Qian Kaili made it clear through social platforms that she hopes to return to China for development. She fondly reminisces about the good times she spent in China and looks forward to recording the show here as she used to.
However, what is unexpected is that this remark has set off a new wave in the online world and attracted strong criticism from many netizens.
Many netizens expressed their indignation at this and left messages accusing her: "You belittled and ridiculed Chinese culture at the beginning, but now you want to return to China to reap benefits?" Should you reflect on your actions? The Internet is full of all kinds of abuse, re-excavating Qian Kaili's words and deeds in the show many years ago, revealing and criticizing mercilessly.
Some netizens even pointed out directly: "Since you claim to be an American and choose to give up your Chinese ancestry, why did you come to China?" It is better to stay in the United States and keep to yourself. Some netizens angrily denounced her as "a liar who betrayed the motherland" and "a speculator who sees the wind and rudders".
In this way, Qian Kaili once again became the focus of netizens' criticism. She was once controversial for her disrespect for Chinese culture, and now she is undoubtedly asking for trouble when she tries to return to this vibrant land.
This beauty, who once relied on her beauty to make a name for herself in the modeling industry, is now no longer glamorous and has gradually faded out of people's sight.
2. Introduce Qian Kaili's background: Chinese-French mixed-race, drifting overseas, guilty and evasive of her Asian ancestry
As a Chinese-French mixed-race Qian Kaili, she grew up in the United States since she was a child. Her unmistakable Eastern face is often met with surprising and unfriendly stares on American soil.
During her childhood, she was often ridiculed and insulted by her peers, such as "Chinese freak" and "bastard".
As she grew older, Qian Kaili gradually developed deep doubts about the genes in the blood of her Asian ethnic group, and even evolved into a kind of escape and guilt! Caught in the whirlpool, she chose to embrace her mother's French background, deliberately avoiding and staying away from the atmosphere of belonging to Asian culture, and even carefully buried her Oriental characteristics deeply.
Former analysts pointed out that perhaps it was because of the discrimination and ridicule she suffered in American society during her childhood that Qian Kaili had a deep resistance to Asian identity, and even hesitated because of it.
Her escape from Chinese ancestry undoubtedly foreshadows a series of gaffes in the vast land of China in the future.
Qian Kaili's inner contradictions and struggles seem to have fallen into an unsolvable circle. On the one hand, she longs to be accepted by Western society; On the other hand, the Asian face made her feel extremely anxious.
This distress of self-identity, like a sharp double-edged sword, pierced her heart deeply.
Because of this, when she was fortunate enough to show her skills on the stage where she grew up in China, Qian Kaili openly denied and belittled her Eastern heritage in various ways, in order to prove her "pure" Western identity.
This practice undoubtedly reveals her deep inner shame and avoidance of Asian identity.
3. Participating in "Falling in Love with a Supermodel": Qian Kaili showed extreme discomfort with Chinese elements and had an argument with the photographer
It was a few years ago. At that time, Qian Kaili, as a newcomer to the modeling industry, participated in the Chinese reality TV talent show "Falling in Love with a Supermodel". From the very beginning, she has demonstrated her American citizenship to the world in a variety of ways, always appearing arrogant and disrespectful to other Asian American staff.
Whether it is in clothing styling or daily life, as long as there is a slight presence of Chinese elements, Qian Kaili will criticize it mercilessly. Whenever she saw the Chinese delicacies on the table, she always showed a look of disgust and pushed away all the fragrant delicacies.
What's even more unbelievable is that Qian Kaili can't accept any oriental charm in makeup and hair styling. Whenever the makeup artist created a hint of oriental beauty for her, she would immediately show a look of disgust, accusing the other party of violating her identity and dignity as an American.
On one occasion, a skilled makeup artist wasted no time in creating a classic Chinese hairstyle for her, but Qian Kaili showed extreme dissatisfaction with this, and even erupted into hysterical anger, which eventually led to an awkward relationship between the two and ended in displeasure.
The most ironic scene takes place in the run-up to a shoot. An Asian photographer reminded several of the male staff members who assisted with the jumping: "You need to give special love and care to these Asian ladies because they are relatively petite.
However, when Qian Kaili heard the term "Miss Asian", she seemed to be greatly insulted and offended. She immediately turned gloomy, her eyes as wide as brass bells, and she began to curse in a sharp voice, insisting that she was not a so-called "Asian girl", but an authentic American citizen.
In the face of Qian Kaili's fierce reaction, the photographer did not flinch, but unceremoniously retorted: "As a fellow Asian compatriot, I don't think there is anything shameful about being Asian, on the contrary, it is exactly the capital that I am proud of."
So, the two started a fierce quarrel on the set, and the atmosphere instantly became tense, and was finally stopped by the staff in time.
Fourth, netizens' criticism of Qian Kaili: Questioning why she came to China to make money since she claimed to be an American?
After the TV show "Falling in Love with a Supermodel" was broadcast, Qian Kaili's series of inappropriate remarks aroused strong disgust from the audience and netizens, which made people stunned and couldn't help laughing. People questioned why she did this, and then they were angered by her escapism about being Chinese.
"If you're so dismissive of Asian ancestry, why bother to come to China to earn yuan?"
"Do you think that by attending a reality show here, you can easily make crazy money and then turn away? Please get your self-esteem back first! ”
"You keep claiming to be American, so why are you participating in a Chinese talent show? Hurry back to your homeland! ”
The comments of netizens were extremely sharp, like a sword poking at Qian Kaili's contradictory behavior. Some people called her "a liar who eats inside and out" and "an opportunist who sees the wind and steers the rudder".
Although Qian Kaili later tried to defend herself, she said that she grew up in the United States and had suffered countless discrimination because of her Asian face, so she was very sensitive to Asian identity. However, in the eyes of netizens, her explanation is just making excuses for her wrong behavior, and there is no sincerity at all.
"If you sincerely want to learn more about Chinese culture, how can you behave in such a way that is clearly disrespectful to Chinese civilization? This is simply contempt and ridicule of Chinese civilization! Certain insightful netizens expressed their opinions on this.
Qian Kaili's "sensitivity" is actually just an excuse, and she can't hide her inner rejection and self-blame for Asian ancestry.
In the fifth part, we will start from five, and trace the cause of the whole incident: Qian Kaili did not perform well in the show, and then encountered a bottleneck in her development in the United States, and tried to return to China but was strongly condemned by the majority of netizens.
Soon after the controversy broke out, Qian Kaili resolutely decided to leave the stage of "Falling in Love with a Supermodel". Her inappropriate remarks in the show have aroused widespread concern and questions from all walks of life.
All of a sudden, people began to wonder why she was so resistant and evasive of her Asian roots.
However, it didn't take long for the public's focus to turn to the follow-up of her departure from the show. Some avid fans found that after returning to the United States, Qian Kaili did not seem to be able to achieve the expected success and breakthrough in the modeling industry.
Some experts believe that Qian Kaili's disregard and insult to Chinese culture in China's "Falling in Love with Supermodel" program is very likely to have had a serious negative impact on her career in the United States.
In this era of globalization, China is actively shaping its positive cultural image, and Qian Kaili's blatant disparaging of Asian cultural ancestry in Chinese television shows has undoubtedly made her path to development in the United States more difficult.
Just when Kelly Qian's modeling career in the United States was in trouble, she even publicly expressed her desire to return to China on social media, claiming that she missed the time she spent filming in China and longed to set foot on Chinese soil again.
This move undoubtedly angered the majority of Chinese netizens, triggering their strong dissatisfaction and anger.
