Sandy Wu (吴姗儒) on the show "Miss Not Xidi" stepped on the photo of Chinese actor Liu Yuning for comedic effect, which enraged his fans. Even after the show issued an apology statement, the anger did not subside. She also personally posted a formal apology: "I have absolutely no ill intentions towards Liu Yuning, but I misjudged the presentation style in the variety show setting. This is a mistake that I am responsible for." However, the controversy only intensified, with the footage spreading wildly online, pushing the keywords "Sandy Wu apologizes to Liu Yuning" to the top searches on Weibo. Even Jacky Wu (吴宗宪) who tried to smooth things over, made it to the trending list and likewise sparked outrage among Chinese fans!
Liu Yuning started his career as a singer and is talented in both singing and acting. In recent years, his film and TV works have become very popular, including: "A Journey to Love (一念关山)", "Bending Waist (折腰)", "A Dream of Books (书卷一梦)", "Beaded Curtains (珠帘玉幕)" and others. He has over 20 million fans on Weibo. However, the clip of Sandy Wu stepping on Liu Yuning's photo went viral online, and the backlash extended to Weibo, with keywords once topping Weibo's number one and two trending searches. Over ten thousand netizens discussed it, harshly criticizing: "What kind of person is this? No manners at all.", "I've never even heard of this show. Liu Yuning is so popular that he gets randomly mentioned on any program.", "Is Xiao S about to take her own show back?", "Is this the way the Wu family raises their children?", "Trampling and insulting another artist's photo—this is your upbringing?".
