A posting on Tesla China’s Sina Weibo account on Tuesday said Xi’an of Northwest China’s Shaanxi Province is the capital of six ancient dynasties of China, which was mocked by Chinese netizens for failing to correctly note that, in fact, 13 dynasties had chosen Xi’an as their capital city in history.
The official Sina Weibo account of Tesla China posted an introduction video of Xi’an and said the ancient city is the capital of six dynasties which gathers modern technologies and is rich in traditional culture.
A netizen form Sina Weibo named SpidermanO_o noted that the Tesla China might get it wrong because Nanjing in East China’s Jiangsu Province was the capital of six ancient dynasties. “That was too amateurish, it is not enough even multiply the number by two,” joked a netizen Sidi kuri.
Tesla China re-edited the post and changed the “six” to “thirteen”, and closed the comment area below the post. And later a new and correct post had replaced the old one.
