photoshop photo/ 批图/ (pītú)  

A: Have you seen today's trending list on Sina Weibo? Chinese actress Qi Wei wrote a post complaining about the photoshop photos her studio did of her at the airport. She is really frank to do something like that.  

你看今天的微博热搜了么？中国女演员戚薇发微博吐槽了自己工作室给自己机场照的批图。她做这件事情,

真是太耿直了。

(nǐ kàn jīntiānde wēibó rèsōuleme? zhōnɡɡuó nǚyǎnyuán qīwēi fāwēibó tǔcáole zìjǐ ɡōnɡzuòshì ɡěi zìjǐ jīchǎnɡzhàode pītú. tāzuò zhèjiànshìqínɡ,

zhēnshì tàiɡěnɡzhíle.) 

B: I saw it. This type of public complaint can be fatal. Her employees explained that they didn't photoshop the photo, but only used a wide lens to take the photo. 

我看到了,这种官方的吐槽最为致命。她的员工还评论解释说并没有批图,只是开了广角拍照。

(wǒ kàndàole, zhèzhǒnɡ ɡuānfānɡde tǔcáo zuìwéi zhìmìnɡ. tāde yuánɡōnɡ hái pínɡlùn jiěshìshuō bìnɡméiyǒu pītú, zhīshì kāile ɡuǎnɡjiǎo pāizhào. )

A: I've learned something. From now on I'll do this when taking pictures. But a lot of photos of stars at the airport or on the street become really beautiful and exquisite after being beautified by their studios or fans. 

学到了,我以后拍照也要这样操作。不过现在很多明星的机场照和街拍经过工作室和粉丝的加工美化后,确实是又美又精致。

(xuédàole, wǒyǐhòu pāizhào yěyào zhèyànɡ cāozuò. bùɡuò xiànzài hěnduōmínɡxīnɡde jīchǎnɡzhào héjiēpāi jīnɡɡuò ɡōnɡzuòshì héfěnsīde jiāɡōnɡ měihuàhòu, quèshíshì yòuměi yòujīnɡzhì.)

B: Releasing these photos really can attract a lot of attention. They can also allow people learn techniques for dressing. 

那些照片晒出来确实能吸引很多目光,也能让大家学习到穿搭的技巧。
