The website of The Times reported in February 1 Sunday that she was ridiculed by many parliamentarians, attacked by voters and isolated in Europe. But Theresa May finally won people's love-from social media users in China.
This is her second visit to China since she became prime minister. She came to China to attend the G20 Summit in Hangzhou on 20 16. She had never been to China before entering Downing Street.
British media said that in China, such nicknames are expressions of affection.
On February 1 day, the second day of her three-day business trip, China CCTV asked her if she knew she had a nickname in China. Theresa May replied, "I don't know."
The reporter said: "Many people in China will affectionately call you' Yimei' in Chinese. This is actually a kind of address for China people-you are a member of this big family. Do you like it? "
The Prime Minister replied, "Oh, thank you. Thank you very much. This makes me feel honored. "
However, it is reported that users in Weibo may complain that their feelings are not rewarded.
Former British Prime Minister David Cameron opened a high-profile Weibo account on 20 13. However, as disclosed in The Times 1, Theresa May used the account only once a year ago after becoming prime minister. Just a few hours before she arrived in Wuhan, a city in central China, British officials updated the Weibo page.
Recently, users from Weibo, China posted messages on Weibo, including welcoming Theresa May to visit China, complaining about the complicated visa application procedures in Britain, and asking when the next James Bond film will be released.
