He appears in commercials and on billboards, has a popular Web site and had a reality show on Chinese television. He sells more NBA jerseys there than Yao Ming.

The apology accepts that she did not see the encounter as consensual although he believed that it was. Without a court judgment, it is wrong for others to judge the event as rape although by his own admission, his actions were wrong.
