preface
Recently, some netizens accused foreigners on social platforms of insulting China and Chinese on the Japanese subway, and the young black man in the carriage noticed that there was a Chinese around him, so he turned his head and observed vigilantly, and netizens also looked at him very angrily, and then someone found that the foreign man in the picture was suspected to be Will Smith's son Jaden Smith, causing heated discussions.
However, it is difficult to confirm whether it is the person based on the appearance alone, but compared with the shape, the clothing is much easier.
It just so happened that Jaden Smith had posted photos in Tokyo on social platforms before, and his style was exactly the same as the photos taken by netizens, his hair was a sky-braid, his top was a white printed T-shirt, there was a yellow-blue stitch on his chest, and his pants were black shorts with white prints.
Before talking about Jaden Smith, let's talk about his father, Will Smith, who was born in 1968 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.
In 1985, they formed the rap group "DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince". In 1989, he won the Best Rap Performance Award at the 31st Grammy Awards. In the same year, he starred in the comedy "Fresh Prince Wonderful".
After that, he continued to appear in action movies, science fiction films and biopics, and in 07, he was shortlisted for Best Actor at the 79th Academy Awards for "When Happiness Knocks".
In the following years, he continued to win awards. In 2022, he won the Oscar for the first time with "King Charlie".
Will Smith's son Jaden Smith, who has watched the world-famous "When Happiness Knocks" with a score of 9.1, has noticed that the child in it is starring Jaden and his father, and is also considered to be the second generation of stars with the same superstar temperament.
The most ironic thing is that the theme of the film includes anti-discrimination, expressing how difficult it is for black people to spell out their own careers in the social environment of the time.
And now, the cute little boy has also become a member of the discriminatory race.
Speaking of this father and son, in fact, their "fate" with China is not deep, Will Smith is known for "liking China", and every Spring Festival will send blessings to Chinese fans.
In 10 years, Jaden Smith starred with Jackie Chan in "Kung Fu Dream", the two played masters and apprentices in the movie, and the movie was made in China, and the film won 1.6 billion at the domestic box office that year.
It is reported that after filming this movie, Jackie Chan also recognized Jaden as his godson.
In addition to acting, Jaden is also a singer, and it is reported that he will travel to Shanghai and Shenzhen in China at the end of August to begin his second concert tour.
Fortunately, because of his popularity in Chinese mainland, Jaden also has his own tour in China. Not to mention, he has also created his own trendy brand and opened several pop-up stores in China.
At the opening of the China pop-up store, Jaden also said that he was very excited to come to China for a tour, which is like his second hometown. Obviously, in front of the camera, stars can say anything, but they can't say what they really think.
After that, the netizen wrote some filth about the Chinese in this long article about Jaden Smith and his group, she woke her father from his slumber, but her father had poor English, she asked him to stay calm, and the foreigners also sensed something was wrong and began to walk around them, about seven or eight people.
Soon, several people yelled, the flight attendant warned a few words, but it was still useless, and under the reprimand of a tall man, these people apologized one after another.
During this time, it seems that someone videotaped them, and after getting permission from his father, he videotaped Jaden Smith. The netizen said his experience was limited, but he felt that this low-level humiliation of China should be made public and expose their true identities.
After Jaden Smith's behavior was exposed, some netizens began to doubt the credibility of this sentence, and the netizen even said that if Jaden Smith did not say "FxxK" four times in a row, he was willing to kneel to the other party to admit his mistake, and said that these people's attitude towards China was very unfriendly, and even expressed the hope of calling the subway camera.
Of course, more netizens objected to Jaden Smith's approach, asking him to cancel his performance in China immediately, and said that Americans are less sensitive when they go abroad, and if they were in their own country, they would definitely not say such things.
This double standard has caused public discontent, and many would like to see public figures show more respect and cultural sensitivity of the state in the international arena, rather than exhibiting inconsistent behavior between differences.
Because the official opened the refund channel in advance, many people who did not know the truth complained about who should bear the loss of alcohol on the plane. Now seeing him scolding Chinese on Weibo, they realized this, and I have to say that the platform's reaction was still very fast.
However, it can be seen from the official and Jaden Smith's Weibo that neither party has any intention of canceling the concert, and Jaden Smith even issued a notice to Chinese fans and friends on Weibo, saying that due to some unforeseen reasons, he had to make a difficult choice to reschedule the concert with his friends, and it would be announced in the shortest possible time.
However, in this article, he did not mention the harm caused to the Chinese people, let alone apologize. Instead, he turned off his circle of friends. It can be seen from this that he does not intend to reflect or apologize at all, but still wants to make money from Chinese fans.
And many netizens have protested against this behavior of "taking up the bowl to eat, putting down the bowl and scolding the mother".
Therefore, the matter affected his father, Will Smith. Will Smith announced the news two weeks ago, indicating that he and his team are very focused on the Chinese market. However, after Jaden Smith insulted China, many netizens flocked to Will Smith's message and asked him for explanations.
In the comment area, many people expressed dissatisfaction with Jaden Smith, and most of them expressed their meaning in English, perhaps to be understood by Will Smith.
But a small number of netizens Chinese angrily insults. His remarks were originally intended to accuse Jaden Smith of lack of family education and call for a boycott of Will Smith's film.
Some people say that the children's remarks are more or less influenced by the father, perhaps this is the case for their entire family.
The reason is because at the Oscars, Will Smith slapped Chris in public. As a result, Will Smith was banned from attending the Oscars for 10 years.
This is because, the famous comedy star Chris joked about the baldness of Will Smith's wife Jada on the show. The last sentence was: "Jada, I'm looking forward to your performance in Devil Girl 2." Everyone laughed at this joke, even Will Smith himself. But Jada seemed very unhappy and even rolled her eyes, in fact, the short hair was not his intention, it was caused by her "hair loss".
Next, Will Smith was on stage, slapped Chris to "avenge" his wife, saying, "Don't call my wife by your dirty mouth!" Offstage, Will Smith was still arguing with Chris.
Some people may think that the Smiths are a little unfunny, but Chris is certainly not innocent in this matter. After all, there must be a degree to joke, and Chris clearly exceeded that boundary. At first glance, Will Smith seems to love his wife, but in fact, there is an incredible "agreement" between the two: an open marriage.
In 2020, Will Smith's 27-year-old friend August, revealed that he had a relationship with Jada. Everyone thought that Will Smith was "cuckolded" behind his back.
But according to August, Will knew about it, and he gave us good wishes. The news was so explosive that the Will Smiths were still denying it at first, but as public opinion fermented, they finally admitted: "Yes, I admit it, and Will knows about it." And, Will also said, he also had an affair!
In 1990, Will had become popular with the American drama "Fresh Prince Wonderful". At that time, Jada was just an unknown little person, and Jada and his best friend Shirley met Will, and the two met Will to go to a drinking party, and Jada was the protagonist of that drinking party.
Unexpectedly, Jada missed the party due to personal affairs, and at the party, Will fell in love with Jada's best friend Shirley at first sight, and then Will and Shirley quickly developed into lovers. Then in 1992, Will married Shirley, but Will and Jada will still see each other often after marriage, and over time Will finds that he still likes Jada more! So Will told Shirley about it, and Shirley became angry when she found out, and finally the two agreed to divorce.
It may be stimulated by the "emotional mode" of parents, and their children are also very "different".
Jaden has had a very bad relationship since he was a child, and he was first with Kim Xiaomei of the Kardashian family. Later, Jaden suddenly came out publicly at the music festival and introduced his boyfriend. It's just that this feeling, the wind and fire, go quietly.
The Jaden Smith incident has aroused widespread attention and introspection in China. We also hope that the foreign artists who make money in China will genuinely love the Chinese fans and love China, without any prejudice.
summary
As a public figure, especially around the world, if he denigrates China in China and also wants to extract more business benefits from China, then he will definitely cause public outrage. It is also another reminder of the need to speak and act responsibly, especially for those who have a great impact.
