There's this undeniable truth that sex sells, but this car wash that has just opened up in the city of Binzhou, Shandong Province, China, is living proof that it also washes cars.
In western societies, the myth of blonde, half-naked girls washing a car with soap and sponges is just a cliche that pops its ugly head every now and again in B-movies, XXX movies, or parodies. And, anyway, it all usually ends with a big foam fight between the "workers" resulting in wet t-shirts and equally wet dreams for those who are watching.
There are the occasional exceptions, like the aptly-named Baywash Bikini Car Wash, but getting your car clean usually means talking to a fully-dressed man and then just sitting as a set of automated brushes and water sprinklers do their thing. No bikinis, no blonde hair and definitely no wet t-shirts or dreams. It's just a dull activity you need to do once in a while to make sure you don't forget the color of your car.
This Chinese car wash, on the other hand, has it all: blonde models from Russia, pink tops (minimal), torn up short jeans, high heels, pink sponges and, very important, pink foam. The car wash has quickly become more popular thanks in no small part to the non-Chinese girls doing the hard work. According to the source (CarNewsChina), using Caucasian models is considered very exotic in those parts, and judging by the cars shown in the images, it's safe to assume that having your vehicle washed there isn't going to come cheap.
Selfies with the two girls, on the other hand, are free, something a man well past his prime is taking full advantage of, as you can see in one of the images below. You don't need to be a feminist to realize there's something horribly wrong with this whole arrangement, but you can't really blame the owner of the shop for trying to grow his business. And it would appear his idea proved to be an inspired one. Not very original, but as long as it works, who cares?
