A lot of people in China didn't feel that Marvel shang chi movie either for a similar reason. They felt the actor was too Asian looking.

They prefer they look like they could pass for some western admixture instead of their aunty and uncle back in their rural hometowns.

There seems to be a lot of self hate over asian features in China and in generally east asia right now. A lot of women are getting double eyelid surgeries to look more western.

You have to look at these stories as China tightening it’s grip on every aspect of it’s peoples lives.

But this is the CPP flexing it’s muscle, see how quickly these companies folded and removed ads. shyt is wild.

But overall from talking to a lot of chinese women the beauty standards over there are maddening for them.

This comes amid increasing outrage on social media in China over the depiction of its nationals, even in the domestic industry.

Three Squirrels Inc, a Chinese firm, had recently tendered an apology for the same make-up of slanted eyes on its model Cai Niang Niang. The controversy continued this week, even as the model defended the portrayal, calling the outrage “morbid”.

“Does that mean I should not be a Chinese because I was born with small eyes?” the model asked. “I was born with eyes like that. They are even smaller in real life. Does that mean I should not be a model because I was born with small eyes? I am all for patriotism… but this is kind of morbid.”

Several other foreign players from the west have faced heat from China over their depictions of east Asian physical attributes in their advertisements.

Luxury clothing and beauty brand Christian Dior SE was slammed for “smearing Asian women” in one of its ads last month, after which the photo was discontinued from circulation. Other companies like Dolce & Gabbana, and H&M have also faced anger for their portrayal of Chinese nationals in ads.
