‘Nomadland’ director Chloé Zhao became the first Chinese woman and woman of color to win the Academy’s coveted “Best Director” statue Sunday night, but Chinese government censors made sure, Monday, that Zhao’s win went unheard of across mainland China because of comments Zhao made, blasting China as a country of “lies.”
“‘Nomadland’ director Chloé Zhao made history on Sunday by becoming the first woman of color and first Chinese woman to win the Oscar for best director. Official media, major search engines, and internet censors in her home country are making as if it didn’t happen,” The Wall Street Journal reported Monday.
