Doubt, clarification and reflection behind an apparently rosy story
The Chinese laid-off cleaner never dreamed of being visited by President Hu Jintao,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], nor did she think the visit would be followed by a public humiliation of her."Now half the population of China think of me as a liar,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," complained 47-year-old Guo Chunping, with tears in her eyes. Guo became famous overnight after President Hu visited her in her low-rent apartment on the Fifth East Ring Road in Beijing just before New Year.
In footage aired by China Central Television (CCTV) on December 30,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 2010, she was asked how much rent she paid. "Seventy-seven yuan (about 11.6 U.S. dollars)," she replied in front of the camera.Netizens soon posted 172 photos of a woman,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], appearing like Guo,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], posing with luggage at a long-distance bus station or sitting in a luxurious restaurant.Guo was described as a "civil servant" by Chaoyang District police, who was too rich to be qualified to have a low-rent house.
Also, with China's skyrocketing house prices and with rent in Beijing generally above 1,000 yuan,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], paying 77 yuan in rent sounded unbelievable to many.To prove Guo right or to refute her, media workers flooded her 50-square-meter apartment."The telephone rang endlessly, and some journalists even climbed onto the building opposite my apartment with cameras," Guo said.
What troubled her most happened after a reporter asked her to pose with her unemployment certificate for a photo to prove her "innocence."The next day,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the photo was everywhere online,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], with her detailed information."I am not a murderer," she protested angrily, "why should I pose like that and let the entire of China know that I was laid off and divorced?"
According to people close to her,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Guo has become hysteric lately. Xinhua reporters had difficulty persuading her to meet with them,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and she would only do so on the condition that the interview be conducted far away from her apartment.Liu Tao, vice director with the Housing Administration Bureau of the Chaoyang District, has done a calculation.
The monthly rent of low-rent houses in the district was 33.6 yuan per square meter. The figure was multiplied by the size of her apartment to get the rent,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 1,545 yuan. According to local policies, the government pays 95 percent of the rent.Therefore,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Guo herself should turn in only 5 percent, 77 yuan in total."In the Lijingyuan Community 487 low-income households signed leases for low-rent houses,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Liu said.Despite the clarification of local officials and Guo herself, doubt still lingers.
Sun Yingchun,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a professor with the School of Foreign Studies of the Communication University of China, believed that people's doubt over Guo' s identity and truth of the news showed their lack of understanding to the low-rent house policy."The TV report didn't make it clear to the people," he said.The report,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], without specifying calculation to the rent,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], just told audiences of the result,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 77 yuan,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which was too low to be true.
Ugg boots (sometimes called uggs) are unisex sheepskin boots,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], made of twin-faced sheepskin with fleece on the inside and with a tanned outer surface, often with a synthetic sole. Ugg boots are believed to have been first developed in New Zealand or Australia,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], although the exact date is uncertain.There has been a dispute between manufacturers of [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as to whether "ugg" is a generic term and thus ineligible for trademark protection, especially in the region of origin. Deckers Outdoor Corporation holds the UGG trademark in more than 100 countries worldwide. Notable exceptions are Australia and New Zealand where the term is considered generic.
