Well, Zhou Xiaoxuan didn’t. The 25-year-old Chinese screenwriter has spoken out saying this is what happened to her at China’s state broadcaster CCTV.
She accused this man, iconic anchor Zhu Jun of sexual assault. Since her allegation last year, Zhou has been slapped with a lawsuit and has been targeted on social media.
But she’s also become a symbol for china’s fledgling #MeToo movement. Our correspondent Mathias Bölinger met Zhou Xiaoxuan in Beijing.
