A few days ago, when the powerful male actor Wu Jing saw his idol Andy Lau on stage at the Golden Rooster Awards ceremony, he couldn't hide his excitement. He immediately took out his iPhone from his pocket, and then took a crazy photo at Andy Lau on the stage. He smiled and looked very happy, but it caused huge controversy on the Internet.
In this regard, many people recognized at first glance that Wu Jing was using an iPhone produced by Apple, a popular brand on the market. As for which model it is, there is no clear answer at the moment, but what can be confirmed is that Wu Jing did not use domestic mobile phones, including the ZTE mobile phones he endorsed.
Among them, Liu Huafang, a well-known e-commerce expert, said that he could not understand after seeing it. He thought that Wu Jing, as the spokesperson of ZTE mobile phones, could he use the iPhone? Is it because ZTE did not stipulate the contract protection period, or is it that Wu Jing was too happy and forgot about this matter, that is, there may be a problem with default.
As we all know, celebrities will sign relevant contracts for endorsement of products, especially electronic products like mobile phones. As spokespersons, they will be subject to relevant constraints, that is, they will not be allowed to use mobile phones of other brands in public. Anyone who has been in the mobile phone industry should be very clear.
The biggest controversy now lies in whether there are restrictions on the spokesperson's private use of other brand mobile phones in Wu Jing and ZTE's endorsement contract. If so, then Wu Jing will undoubtedly face termination or claiming for breach of contract, but if not, there will be no big problem. At most, it will be just a few moral kidnapping and scolding.
But there are also a few people with extreme thoughts. For example, director Liu Xinda called on Weibo that he would confiscate Wu Jing's iPhone and disqualify his domestic mobile phone spokesperson, so as to achieve the goal of setting an example for You.
Of course, there is also controversy about the place where Wu Jing took photos when using an iPhone. Whether it was used publicly or privately, this is completely different. However, according to the on-site situation, it is more inclined to be public. After all, it is at the award ceremony of so many people, and it is also on TV news. It is obviously unreasonable to say that it is used privately.
0 The deadline of the post was due, ZTE did not respond to the spokesperson Wu Jing taking photos with iPhone, which means that the two parties did not sign an agreement to restrict the spokesperson from using other brand mobile phones. Otherwise, they would have issued a statement as soon as possible to hold Wu Jing accountable.
Even though Wu Jing did not breach the contract, his reputation and image were greatly degraded because everyone knows that he has starred in many main theme movies, showing his patriotic feelings to the fullest. The veritable patriotic actor has been loved and supported by the majority of movie fans and audiences.
So, in such a big occasion, Wu Jing did not shy away from using foreign brand mobile phones in such a big occasion, which obviously conflicted with his patriotic personality. It is indeed not appropriate for him to do so, and it is understandable that he is criticized and discussed.
Of course, as long as there is no relevant restriction agreement signed, celebrities can use whatever mobile phone they like. This is their freedom, and outsiders have no right to interfere, as long as they are not afraid of causing controversy or being scolded by others, then there is no problem.
