Japanese actress Noriko Sakai made an apology on Tuesday for her previous microblog post asking Chinese fans to give her money, which received a trending hash tag on Chinese social media。
Noriko Sakai, a 48-year-old Japanese actress, was arrested for taking drugs and faded out of the entertainment circle. This time, it suddenly appeared on the hot search and was "begging online" by the netizen diss. What happened?
Sakai, who used to be a well-known Japanese singer and actress, was sentenced in 2009 to three-year probation for drug abuse。 After her probation ended, she returned to the entertainment world。
Many Chinese netizens calledSakai an “international beggar” after she tweeted on Monday on Sina Weibo to greet Chinese fans a happy New Year with payment links and a picture of her smiling attached。 The links included one for fan club registration, one for Chinese mobile and online payment platform Alipay, and a third for Chinese bank card UnionPay。
On January 7th, Noriko Sakai, a long-lost Japanese actress, took a beautiful photo in Weibo and wrote: "Happy New Year, fans ~ I’m Noriko Sakai. Thank you for your kindness to me last year. Please take care of me this year." However, this Weibo is attached with links to registered fan members and several payment methods.
Clicking on the link will pop up a product display page. The product for sale is "quarterly member of Noriko Sakai official fan website" and the price is RMB in 90 yuan.
The tweet soon became a hot topic on Sina Weibo。 “What the hell are you doing? Begging for money?” wrote user “Xuecha。”
Netizens have diss that she is an "international beggar", and the topic of "online begging in Noriko Sakai" has also quickly reached the hot search. Netizen "Xueyan" left a message under Weibo of Sakai, saying, "What are you doing? Are you begging in China …"
@ Daily Sugar Flavor: Drug abuse is black all my life, and I still come to beg.
@ Only like durian: This is too direct. What a thick skin!
@ 亵亵亵: I don’t even know her.
Power of @: What a shame!
Sakai on Tuesday deleted the tweet and posted a new apology and explanation。
On January 8th, Noriko Sakai deleted Weibo, who was accused of "online begging", and issued an apology and explanation again.
“I deeply apologize for my tweet yesterday which was criticized by Chinese netizens。 NorikoSakai’s Sina Weibo account is run by a Japanese fan company who simply copied a model of a paid fan membership called fanclub…Please continue to support me as usual。 Thank you,” wrote Sakai, explaining the payment links were only for fans to register for a paid fan club。
"The Weibo issued yesterday has been criticized by everyone, and I apologize here. Since the Weibo in Noriko Sakai is currently managed by the Japanese fan network operation company, it has copied and promoted the Japanese membership payment system fanclub model, which has led to misunderstandings and doubts among China friends who originally liked and have been quietly paying attention to Noriko Sakai. In the future, we will definitely refer to your suggestions to strengthen management and gradually improve. Please continue to support and thank you again."
However, many netizens refused to buy it and found thatSakaiin 2018 posted multiple similar articles with payment links。 “Excuse me? Stars who took drugs would be banned in China。 Bye and never see you again,” said user “HaigeV587。”
However, many netizens didn’t buy it, and even found several Weibo who begged for money in this way in 2018, pointing out that she was a "recidivist". Some netizens commented, "Sorry, the stars who take drugs in China are going to be banned. Goodbye. "
