Shang Wenjie

As winner of the 2006 Super Girl Contest, rated by some Fudan University professors as among the top five best Chinese-French simultaneous interpreters in Shanghai, Shang Wenjie has met jeers and scathing criticism on the internet.

Shang published a poem in French on her blog last month. Unfortunately, netizens found five basic grammatical mistakes in the poem. They suggested this kinds of mistakes "are not supposed to be made even by elementary school pupils," and moreover, in such a short poem -- "nine lines in all!"

"If she could be one of the top five simultaneous interpreters in Shanghai, how could the French hope to communicate with the Chinese? " one of netizens asked on his blog.

Shang, 24, a French language major in the Fudan University, won the Super Girl Contest in September. The contest is said to be a Chinese copy of the star-making American Idol.
