Photographer Chen Man issued an apology, claiming to be deeply aware of his mistake, but why didn’t netizens buy it?

Because her apology was not sincere and very perfunctory. One of Chen Man's works has recently aroused heated discussion

When Dior held a global tour exhibition in Shanghai, Chen Man's promotional photos for Dior were displayed. However, this photo is difficult for many Chinese people to accept. The model in the photo has no beauty at all. The makeup and expression on her face are a bit gloomy. She is also wearing Qing Dynasty nail polish, and her appearance is very ugly and weird. Some netizens even complained that this photo seemed to be "merchandise" from the Japanese Olympic Games. This promotional video quickly caused a lot of controversy on the Internet. Not only were netizens very dissatisfied, but even the official media came out and accused the photo of vilifying Asian women. Why did Chen Man do this?

I deliberately read Chen Man’s previous works. I found that Chen Man’s style of painting is very normal when he takes pictures of our domestic stars, but when he takes pictures of Western countries, the works with Chinese elements are ugly. Many foreigners think that we Chinese have squinty eyes, flat noses, and high cheekbones. In order to gain greater popularity and recognition in the Western fashion circle, Chen Man deliberately took these ugly photos to cater to Western aesthetic concepts. Chen Man issued an apology, but netizens did not buy it.

At the beginning of the apology statement, Chen Man wrote: "I'm sorry that I only came forward now." ?This undoubtedly made the majority of netizens even more angry, because she knew that she had made a mistake, but she did not apologize for her problem at the first time, but closed her comments. Although Chen Man issued an apology statement, it was just a few simple words, using her childish ignorance as an excuse, which meant that she did not realize where her real problem lay. She emphasized that her early artistic perception had not yet been formed, but we can also see from Chen Man's previous portraits of major celebrities and herself that her aesthetics are normal and the people she photographed are all beautiful. However, in her photography for the international brand Dior, only the ugly and gloomy side is shown, which is unacceptable.
