李诞道歉

近日，李诞在微博上为女性内衣品牌Ubras带货，其文案中提到“让女性轻松躺赢职场”引发争议。

今天，李诞发表致歉声明，承认措辞确实不当，感谢大家批评。

Chinese Lingerie Brand Ubras Comes Undone

Jing Daily

Firstly, the practice of men promoting women’s products in China is not unusual and male celebrities endorse everything from tampons to lipstick. Companies use these ambassadors to target their followers who will often purchase the products simply based on the influencers endorsement. Comic talk shows are especially popular in China right now and what should have been a fun, good-spirited initiative has backfired dramatically for the Beijing-based brand. Incensed netizens are not holding back. 

Some choice comments include: “Is this really from a female team? Women will never write such a thing.” It certainly looks like the days of hiring tone-deaf KOLs are numbered, at least for Ubras, which should stick with positive female influencers such as Ouyang Nana — though even she has come under fire in the past.

含注释全文：

Chinese Lingerie Brand Ubras Comes Undone

Jing Daily

What Happened: DTC underwear brand Ubras is the latest Chinese name embroiled in a controversy over the objectification of women. The lingerie brand invited a number of stand-up comedians to create videos for a marketing campaign, including the star Si Wen. However, another comedian, Li Dan, has caused spectacular consternation online with his comments. The Chinese phrasing was ambiguous and clearly made some readers uncomfortable, particularly one comment which, when translated, referenced bras as a weapon that allows women to easily “lie-down-win” (tangying) in the workplace. This, along with Li's claim that there are no products he can't promote or sell — “Just believe it or not!” — has caused particular offense.

DTC也就是Direct-to-consumer（直接面向消费者）的缩写。Direct-to-consumer refers to selling products directly to customers, bypassing any third-party retailers, wholesalers, or any other middlemen.

控方的案子取决于一位证人的证词，而该证人已在审判前死去。

2）表示“（故事或情况）围绕着…展开”，英文解释为“If a story or situation hinges on an idea or subject, it develops from that idea or that is the most important subject in it.”举个🌰：

The film's plot hinges on a case of mistaken identity.

该电影的情节围绕着一宗身份误认案展开。

📍2019政府工作报告中英文对照注释版中提到：绿色发展人人有责，贵在行动、成在坚持。Promoting green development is down to every last one of us; its success hinges on action and commitment.

表示“不太认真地考虑，玩弄”，英文解释为“to consider something or doing something, but not in a very serious way, and without making a decision”举个🌰：

I'm toying with the idea of going to Sichuan this year.

🎬电影《侏罗纪公园》（Jurassic Park）中的台词提到：After careful consideration, I've decided not to endorse your park. 仔细考虑以后 我决定不为你的公园背书。

⚠️这里补充一下，看到上面的「背书」你可能疑惑了，除了在金融上的含义，现在往往被用于政治领域。

📍例如，新华网2020年4月份一则新闻标题就为「奥巴马“背书”拜登」讲的就是奥巴马发声力挺拜登。

表示“事与愿违，（计划或行动）发生意外，产生事与愿违的结果”，英文解释为“if a plan or action backfires, it has the opposite effect to the one you intended”，举个🌰：

He held back, terrified of going into the dark room.

他退缩了，不敢进入黑暗的房间。

常见意思表示“不能辨别音高的”，英文解释为“unable to hear the difference between musical notes”，此处显然不是这个含义，词典中发现还有这个解释：having or showing an obtuse insensitivity or lack of perception particularly in matters of public sentiment, opinion, or taste. 字面解释就是在公众情绪、观点、品味等方面缺乏感知，表现出愚钝、不敏感，中文该怎么形容好呢？

Key Opinion Leader的缩写，一般指关键意见领袖。KOL是营销学上的概念，通常被定义为：拥有更多、更准确的产品信息，且为相关群体所接受或信任，并对该群体的购买行为有较大影响力的人。更通俗的说法，就是文中多次出现的influencer.

📍现在还有另一个说法：KOC，Key Opinion Consumer的缩写，即关键意见消费者，一般指能影响自己的朋友、粉丝，产生消费行为的消费者。相比于KOL，KOC的粉丝更少，影响力更小，优势是更垂直、更便宜。（百度百科）

表示“…的时日不多；…将不久于人世”，英文解释为“If someone or something's days are numbered, they will not exist for much longer.”
