However, it was this post that embroiled him in controversy, with many people criticizing him for donating to car companies with ulterior motives, and other bloggers even saying that he was always trying to gain attention.
This incident also became a trending topic on Weibo, with many bloggers and netizens participating and offering a wide range of opinions.
That afternoon, Chen Zhen posted on Weibo to explain why he said the above sentence: Although there seem to be some issues related to "contractual spirit" that have not been properly resolved, such "generosity" may not be easy for people to understand, but from the perspective of the matter itself, it is still worthy of praise.
He also said that Xiaomi and Tesla are both popular cars, and he is also an internet celebrity. What's wrong with an internet celebrity talking about popular cars?
Shortly after, he posted another Weibo post apologizing for his previous statement, saying, "My first Weibo post was unclear, I apologize."
