NSFW: The Naked Truth About Chinese Car Shows

The car show in Haikou on the Chinese island of Hainan is small as far as car shows go. Organizers had to try harder to attract visitors. Or, being small, they had to save money, and they decided to spare the garments of their female product specialists. They appeared covered in not much more than flowers. Caution, the following pictures could be considered as offensive and NSFW in Sharia jurisdictions and parts of America, but have become quite common in officially still communist China.   According to Tycho at Carnewschina, who uncovers these things for TTAC (and who has higher res pictures), "organizers of the show called it 'art', as in body paint, but authorities weren't that stupid and the show received a stern warning." It has become customary (see Chengdu and Beijing) that the stern warning are handed out towards the end of the show, guaranteeing maximum, well, exposure for the show, a kept face for the authorities, and, well, coverage as far as TTAC in the U.S. of A. How did the Chairman says? Let a thousand flowers bloom. He did not specific the location of the blooming. Either that, or the organizers took the "flower street" concept far too literal. from The Truth About Cars http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com
