Why?!

Zero sympathies. Excellent unison actions by the various Chinese companies.

This is how you commit career suicide as a celebrity in China.

And claiming ignorance in such context is only a further insult to himself which no one will buy.

"Chinese actor Zhang Zhehan sparked outrage among the Chinese public on Friday, after photos were spread on social media in which he was seen posing at Japan's notorious #Yasukuni Shrine, which honors some of Japan's worst #WarCriminals.

There were also photos of Zhang attending a wedding at #Nogi Shrine, another infamous shrine that honors imperial Japanese #military officers who invaded China during World War II.

The Chinese media criticized Zhang for being ignorant of history and national suffering.

"One shall pay a heavy price for it if he or she knowingly challenges national dignity," read a comment from People's Daily that was posted on China's twitter-like Weibo on Friday evening.

As of 10 pm on Friday, all the more than 20 companies with commercial cooperation with Zhang, including drink brand Wahaha, have announced they would end their partnership with Zhang, the public found.

"National dignity is something that can't be disturbed," Wahaha said in a statement it published on Weibo. The company said that its products will terminate their partnership with Zhang immediately. Zhang was brand advocate for Wahaha's vanilla ice cream products.

Food company Hsu Fu Chi said on Weibo it would terminate cooperation with Zhang, saying that his deeds had hurt Chinese people's feelings, which the company is opposed to firmly. "The national dignity, image and respect can't be encroached upon," the company wrote.

Jewel brand Pandora and fabrics brand Shanghai Mercury Home Textile also made similar statements.

The producers of Formed Police Unit, a film starring Zhang, also said he would be removed from the production."

How ignorant you must be?

Zhang Zhehan should be considered as one of the most stupid individuals in the world in 2021. What a way to destroy years of career in the entertainment industry.

Apparently he was attending a friend's wedding. At the Yasukuni Shrine!

This is just insanity or stupidity on a whole new level. Zhang Zhehan knows he is Chinese, he knows he has Chinese fans, and he knows the current political climate in China. Yet he doesn't know what the Yasukuni Shrine is about? Or maybe he is a closet fan of Japanese Imperialism? Either way, its the most stupid thing any Chinese celebrity could do. Imagine any Israeli star posing for a photo while attending some sick wedding ceremony at Auschwitz. That's how stupid this looks. No Israelis or American Jews are stupid enough to do that.

His friend who had a wedding was Chinese too? Well, if that was the case, it goes to show how some of these f.. Kers that are financially well off i.e. Entertainers, financial monkeys, etc. loses touch with their sense of humanity, dignity, and love of country. It seems that for some, success breeds arrogance and mental retardation which explains the level of wilful ignorance being displayed by yet another Chinese celebrity proving yet again that these people must never be given any type of power or influence within the Chinese government ever.

I know this should be in the Japanese military news. But it's also news in general. And I wanted to concentrate on their headline:​

"China's growing threats". Now tell me when was the last time China ever invaded Japan, and when was the last time Japan invade China? Isn't it this typical of the MSM.

Japan Developing An ‘Invincible’ Fighter Jet By Merging Capabilities Of Both F-22 Raptor & F-35 Lightning II​

Japan is one of the biggest buyers of Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II stealth fighter jets. However, the world’s “most advanced” combat jet has a major shortcoming, prompting Tokyo to expedite its next-generation F-3 or F-X fighter program in the face of growing threats from China.

The more I think about this the more suspicious I get. Taliban are taking over far too easily. Almost too easy. The US withdrawing troops suddenly just when the Taliban offensive started is suspicious. US might do a deal with the Taliban to do their dirty work to spread terrorism against China. Make problems for China using terrorism. Create a quagmire for China.
If you revisit the history of Vietnam war you will find nothing strange. North Vietnam never stopped pushing to the south after signing the cease fire deal with the U.S. The faster the North advanced to the South, the faster U.S. pulled out.

Why Taliban are taking over "far too easily"? Because the government forces are defecting or deserting more and more. Nobody want to be on the loosing side at the end. Fighting to the end on the loosing side, one will be severely punished, joining the winning side, one get pardoned or even rewarded.

If true that the friend getting married was Chinese, then that's madness. Sometimes people who obtained too much wealth too soon can get carried away. Zhang Zhehan is probably one of those terrible examples.

The thing about many of the rich and elite people. They tend to create and mingle within an exclusive class of their own. Their circle of friends tend to be from the same society. They tend to marry amongst each other. This can breed arrogance, and a lack of empathy for the common folk. This happens to any elite societies around the world. Though not all rich and elite people are like that, many tend to fall into that same trap.

It is a good thing that China has a government and society that will not allow the rich and elites to do what ever the want. I just wish we had at least 10% of that here in Malaysia. Because here in Malaysia, the rich and elites can get away with murder. I mean it literally.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Personally I don’t think that India is behind this. If they were Twitter would be flooded with posts by Indian officials boasting that they scored the big one against th Chinese.
My immediate response to the claim was suspicion. It seemed an amateurish attempt to draw China more deeply into the Indo/Pak conflict. Not the behavior of a true ally, at all!

I am also suspicious of the conclusion. Firstly, the Pakistani Foreign minister called it an accident within a few days, that was too easy too soon. He then retracted after China disagreed. Now after capturing only one suspect, with two more on the run, they concluded it is India and Afghanistan behind it, it is too convenient. It is also strange that the announcement has no Chinese consent even though China has investigators in the team. It looks like somebody in Pakistan is trying to force Chinese hands.

Stupidity on a whole different level. Surly someone from his management team should have advise him on this. So I'm not sure it just pure stupidity. Or it could be more to this sorry saga.

I actually do have a friend iin Kabul and did tell me his government was selling out. Plus he has a stash of anime and video games which he thinks he will lose.

I think his video games would be last of his worries judging by what happened last time the Taliban was in town.
