Zhou Zhenglong's decision to shoot a tiger has long been conclusive. Will it be re-evaluated because of MIT's conclusion?

I think so, too. After all, this is a great opportunity to clear Zhou Zhenglong's name.

First of all, from the social point of view, the previous misjudgment must be corrected now. In fact, as early as 2007, Zhou Zhenglong's case of shooting the South China Tiger was conclusive, saying that Zhou Zhenglong's photo of the South China Tiger claiming to be an endangered animal was false and forged, so that he was convicted of fraud and sentenced to two years' imprisonment. It turns out that the Animal Protection Association gave him an award for photographing the South China Tiger. Later, the photos were questioned by netizens, which led to a decline in the credibility of relevant personnel. Finally, Zhou Zhenglong was convicted of fraud. Now it is said that a report from MIT says that the photos are true, so we should put the previous injustice aside.

Secondly, it is also an answer and comfort to Zhou Zhenglong. It took 13 years, and MIT gave the final appraisal result: the tiger's head and legs in the photo have obvious movements, so the photo is true. This news undoubtedly gave a loud slap in the face to the people who were opposed at that time. If you don't re-evaluate the results, you don't respect natural animal photographers like Zhou, or you don't pay attention to the protection of endangered animals. In fact, after so many years, the parties have long since put it down. Is it true or not, but how can we be willing to part with it? Because many people don't think it's fake, it's hard to photograph the South China Tiger, so this grievance must have stayed in his heart for a long time.

Finally, I think we should have our own opinions on everything. It is impossible to say that it is false just because it is unlikely. We should respect artists and give them a chance to speak. We should not refute blindly. I hope that similar incidents in Zhou Zhenglong will not happen again in the future, and appraisers should be careful. Don't wronged a great artist because of your own small mistakes.

In a word, I think since there have been different voices about this matter, let's investigate it clearly.
