NBA Star Kobe Bryant arrived at Taiwan on thursday, at night he held a brief private party, [Xiao Zhu] show Luo attended the party, but his attendance made some internet users angry :"He doesn't even know how to speak english, just trying to upstage himself again."(搶什麼風頭-i can't seem to translate this word, so any takers in translating the word for me?) this made xiao zhu who was invited to attend feel rather irritated.

After Xiao Zhu was being criticized that his attendance in Michael Jackson's commemoration activity was too "high profile", he is being criticized again because as he attended Nike's party last thursday, he took a picture with NBA's Bryan, and Japan's fashion king Fujihara Hiroshi and this picture was exposed onto the internet which caused internet users to criticize him even more.
Internet users made up stories while looking at the picture, as they know that Xiao Zhu can't speak english they assumed that he was "kicked to the side", and Bryan only chatted to Fujihara Hiroshi.

Xiao Zhu's manager Xiao Shuang was there that evening. She explained that Xiao Zhu had also designed shoes for Nike, that evening he was invited as a "representative for the entertainment industry" to attend the activity held in Nike's flagship store, and as Bryan had to leave Taiwan at 8 that night, the 3 of them only took one picture, and Bryan had to hurridely leave.

Xiao Shuang also explained that Xiao Zhu never conceals the fact that he doesn't know how to speak english well, but as one of Nike's superior introduced Show as "Taiwan's No.1 idol, and also loves to play basketball" to Bryan, the two of them greeted each other in a "basketball way". After Bryan left, Xiao Zhu chatted with Fujihara Hiroshi.

Xiao Zhu already knows about the criticism that the internet users are giving him, he feels rather put out. Xiao Shuang said :"Recently everything that Xiao Zhu does is being enlarged, he was invited to go, It was the company(nike's) request to take a picture and write about it, the picture was exposed by the company, and he's still being criticized for that, I really don't know what to say anymore." Towards this Nike emphasizes that Show was invited by them, and the party was to celebrate 6453 idea and to release Nike ID Kobe IV to the customers.

poor Xiao Zhu, he must have been really put down. So what if his english isn't that good, internet users don't have to criticize him for that. Don't worry Xiao Zhu they're all just jealous of you.

wth? how is he trying to attract attention like that?he just attends a private party as a guest and takes pictures.everyone does that can?the pople have no brain issit?goshh

ridiculous!
nike invited him.. soo he was polite to come
they are alll jealous! feel sad for him

Hmmm, it looks like another round of misunderstanding to me yeah. Hopefully the internet users would have a change of opinion now that Xiao Shuang has helped to clarify the matter. Show Luo stay strong okay! <3

thanks for posting!

I love Kobe! He's one of my idol too. There was once he came to Singapore, but of course I didn't met him.

Why can't the internet users understand Xiao Zhu and leave him alone. Don't just people by pictures and get the facts right before criticizing anybody.
What's wrong of just taking pictures and going to parties that he was invited too?!
So it's wrong taking pictures and meeting somebody but you can't understand each other. So, this means it's wrong for me to take picture and talk to Xiao Zhu, since I do not know any Chinese.

Sorry, I can't control my anger, therefore I must shout it out. I'm just so angry with the people who criticize him.

me too!! angry angry!! i want to slap those people! leave him alone already!

oh well, they're just sooo jealous of Xiao Zhu, that'all it is...

after all the "attacks" being thrown at him, this should not be new.

jia you Show!

Xiao Shuang said :"[...] I really don't know what to say anymore."

me too
i run out of words .....
no idea what is going on

xiao zhu jia you

yeah, really...
those people just too jealous to xiao zhu,,
b'coz not everyone can attend the party,,
and our xiao zhu soo lucky hihi
its okay, xiao zhu !
dont care whatever they say...
jiayooo!!!

seriously, are you freaking kidding me?!
this is so bullshit. they have no good reason to put him down like that =S
what, just because he doesn't speak fluent english, doesn't mean he can't go to the event?! =S so bullshit.

the ppl online criticizing xiao zhu in this manner should just stfu and get a life.

i dont know what to say...
i my gosh!!
ANGRY!!!!! why all the people always think negatively to show???

I saw this news in the Chinese forum and was just too reluctant to translate it because it is just nonsense. For heaven's sake, just leave Show alone.

even though we all know ist nonsense ...
its serious one -cause his manager react on it

*sigh ... like you said ...can the pls leave him alone

freya1507, are you still in Taiwan? Are you going to go to Show's Honeymoon party on the 30th?

搶什麼風頭 - I think that means 'Why is he stealing the limelight?'

wow, poor Show, all this controversy and nonsense, and all because of Kobe. lame (cant hide the fact that she's a Celtics fan)

yeah, people need to leave him him alone, before he cries again.

Like, I don't even know what to say anymore, it's ridiculous. Why can't they leave him alone? He is honestly the nicest, most generous, caring person I have ever heard of, yet all anyone has to say about him is negative bullshit! He works so hard, and gives so much, and people just don't seem to care. Angry tears are forming right now, I am very upset at how unfairly he is treated. I can only hope that he doesn't take any of these things to heart anymore.

LoL oh, wow. seriously. wtf?

these people seriously need to get a life?

SO WHAT IF he was being high profiled and-slash-or stealing the thunder? it's cuz he can.. holy crap these people.. -_-

but he wasn't. obviously.

I'm sure that Show won't let all this affect him. He's really strong and he knows that he has all of his fans supporting him. There's currently a heated argument on the web about this news. People supporting Show are fighting back.

This story seems a little too convenient...as if they're just trying to build on the Michael Jackson 'Beat It' story...which is pretty lame and stupid

I mean, didn't they learn their lesson making up ridiculous stories and claiming that they're true?

They know that Show's english isn't that good. He's said it himself numerous times. And to try and capitalize off that, to claim that he needs to be so desperate as to crash a party he was invited to, is an egregious and short-sighted mistake. All that this will accomplish is less faith in the integrity of their publications, since most netizens are online and not buying their ridiculous "rag sheets"...Show will overcome this just like he's overcome many other "hei ren"

Phew~~~~ I've said all I've wanted to say

Oh, geez, not again. Okay, since I can't speak Korean, I obviously can't go to Korea if I ever want to. Since I can't speak French, I obviously can't go to France...in fact, I'm pretty much limited to English and Chinese-speaking countries! And obviously, if I ever wanted to go to a party where there were a majority of non-English/Chinese speaking people...I could never, ever do that. That would be just so wrong!!

...-_- Honestly? Well, this actually happens to stars all the time, so Xiao Zhu isn't alone. The media's just really focusing on him because he's so big right now. But it's kind of annoying. I mean, Xiao Zhu's fluent in Japanese...Fujihara Hiroshi is Japanese...thus...he can communicate with others at the party. And since when do you need language to communicate? The party was for Kobe to get more connections, probably--and Xiao Zhu's a pretty good connection to have in Taiwan.

On the other hand, Xiao Zhu's fans have really been fighting back on the net (on Chinese websites). So that's a good thing!

dang it!those nonsense stories are back again..why cant those media people leave SHOW LO alone...it makes me feel so irritated! so what if SHOW is not good in his English speaking skills?!at least our dear SHOW LO is still trying to learn and improve his speaking skills...can you[media people] leave SHOW LO alone!!!

anyways,thanks for translating!
be strong SHOW!!!we're always gonna back you uP!!!

iloveyou SHOW!!!
xiao zhu forever XD

Grrh...That people only jealous to our Show,just talking too much...ohh poor show..They can't take that Show already Big now,then looking for his side that could be criticized..Don't worry Show, we're backing you!
