The man agreed to allow the company to use his face for perpetuity in 2009. In 2021 China Daily criticized the usage of his face to suggest a non-Chinese origin for the company. The author of the article, Zhang Zhouxiang, stated "But such blind worship is uncalled for in China now that it has become the world's second-largest economy." David Fickling of Bloomberg News argued that the usage of the man of European origin and European-inspired branding reflected an internalized inferiority felt in China, similar to that felt by people in Japan in the mid-20th century, before the rise of the Japanese economy.
