Lebronwon 05/25/21 1:44:52 PM #1:	https://www.scmp.com/sport/martial-arts/wrestling/article/3134752/wwe-superstar-john-cena-very-sorry-chinese-fans WWE superstar John Cena issued an apology to Chinese fans after calling Taiwan a country in a movie promotion interview. The 44-year-old American, who made the comment on Taiwanese broadcasting network TVBS during a promotional tour for the Hollywood blockbuster Fast & Furious 9, posted a video message on Sina Weibo clarifying his comments, though he did not directly mention Taiwan or its relationship with China. Hi China, Im John Cena. Im in the middle of Fast and Furious 9 promotions. Im doing a lot of interviews. I made a mistake in one of my interviews. Everyone was asking me if I could use Chinese [movie] staff gave me a lot of information, so there was a lot of interviews and information, said Cena, who started learning Mandarin to help his wrestling promotions integration in China. He has since gone viral many times for his enthusiastic Mandarin-speaking abilities. I made one mistake. I have to say something very, very, very important now. I love and respect China and Chinese people. Im very, very sorry about my mistake. I apologise, I apologise, Im very sorry. You must understand that I really love, really respect China and the Chinese people. My apologies. See you. There are more than 5,000 comments on Cenas Weibo apology. Please say in Chinese that Taiwan is part of China. Otherwise, we wont accept it, wrote one Weibo user. The message had over 3,200 likes. Then you should say Taiwan is Chinas! wrote another user. What you have said in the video is nonsense. You cant take benefits from China, but in the meantime, do things to harm Chinas interests. Others supported Cena, with one person writing: I like you. I think you truly love China. Dont talk carelessly again about Chinas territory and sovereignty. --- Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7 <cite>Lebronwon posted [p:954285038] in John Cena ...
