According to Henan Business Daily, 10 photography enthusiasts and three young women arrived in Shenxiandong Forest Park, Xinmi City in Central China's Henan Province and prepared for artistic nude photography the morning of June 9.
拍照引来越来越多的当地村民围观，不少人还掏出自己的手机拍照。
During the photo shoot, more and more local villagers and visitors gathered around and many photographed the naked models with their mobile phones.
约2小时后，几个人突然冲向拍摄场地。其中一人还用树枝驱赶模特，大喊：“滚出去”。
About two hours later, several men suddenly rushed toward the shooting area, and one lashed at the models with tree branches as he shouted, "Get out of here."
"Since the 1990s, Chinese people have started to accept different kinds of art forms, including artistic nude photography," Mr. Wang, a photography lover from Zhengzhou, said. "As early as 2001, Xi'an (a Chinese inland city) had already held several human body photography exhibitions."
According to Wang, at that time there was one specific incident that impressed him most. A man said to his wife after visiting the exhibition that those photos were obscene. His wife replied, "You don't know anything about arts. You should read the implied meaning of these photos, rather than only look at them."
“看来，这个封闭小山村的传统村民们还无法理解和接受这种艺术形式，”王先生补充道。
"It seems that the traditional villagers in this closed place cannot understand and accept this kind of art form," Wang added.
人体模特：我不是随便让人拍、让人看的“玩偶”
Nude model: "I am not a 'doll' played by everyone."
据该模特的经纪人张女士介绍，她是一名在校大学生，今年20岁，在一家模特公司做兼职人体模特已有3年。
According to Mrs. Zhang, the agent of the nude model, her 20-year-old client is a college student and has been a part-time nude model for three years.
"My client had been chosen to model by photography lovers several times. The pay we get each time is different, varying on the shooting content and spots for photography," Mrs. Zhang said. "This time we earned 2,000 yuan (US$292)."
该模特说：“我是被摄影师邀请来拍照的，不是随便让人拍、让人看的玩偶。”
The model said, "I'm the model invited by the photographers, rather than the doll that has photos taken freely or to be watched by the crowd."
Wu Guangwei, the manager of Shenxiandong Forest Park, said, "The photographers and their models bought tickets to get into our scenic spots, and it is legal to take photos here. So we have no right to prevent them from entering into the park."
游客：绝不允许自己的女儿去做人体模特
Visitors: "I would never allow my daughter to be a nude model."
Visitors seeing the shoot hold two quite different views. Some appreciated the display as art. Others said that they could not accept it. A female visitor surnamed Ma said that young people should first know how to respect themselves and then learn to respect the so-called arts.
Another visitor from Zhengzhou who is surnamed Zhang passed the nude model with hands over her eyes. She said, "In the current open era, I can appreciate this kind of art. However, I would never allow my daughter to be a nude model."
