Chapter 145: An Unexpected Way to Go Viral
Chapter 145: An Unexpected Way to Go Viral
2007 3 Month 11 Day.
Lee Tung Street in Hong Kong is lined with tall buildings on both sides.
This once bustling street, known for its wedding supplies, has now vanished without a trace.
All the buildings on the ground were bulldozed, leaving only a large expanse of green netting covering the soil.
This place has been demolished for several years, and all the residents have already moved away.
But on this morning, forty or fifty old neighbors who used to live here unexpectedly gathered, and their greetings after a long separation broke the silence of Wedding Invitation Street for more than two years.
We haven't seen each other for several years, and we have so much to talk about.
This scene quickly attracted the attention of Hong Kong media, and reporters have already come to interview and report on it, speculating that it is another demolition dispute.
After all, Wedding Invitation Street has repeatedly made the news due to its class-action lawsuit.
Hong Kong is a small place, and there are many newspapers and magazines that make a living in the media industry, so reporters come here for news, big or small.
Meanwhile, police officers patrolling nearby rushed over to maintain order, fearing that the people might cause a disturbance.
The police roughly counted and found that there were several dozen elderly residents of Wedding Invitation Street, most of whom were over 50 years old.
"Inspector Chen, we need backup! We need backup! Those guys from Wedding Invitation Street have regrouped, and they're all older people..."
"OK, we'll try to buy you some time. Please provide support immediately."
After the call ended, the two police officers stood ready, their foreheads beaded with sweat from tension.
A group of older people is not easy to manage...
If someone dies, I'll lose my job and might even end up in jail for a few days.
But gradually, the two policemen began to feel confused.
Something seems off about their conversation...
Shouldn't the discussion be about how much money to ask the Hong Kong government?
Why are we suddenly chatting like old friends?
It wasn't like this before!!!
"Long time no see, old neighbor. How have you been lately?"
Long time no see.
"That's just how my body is."
"Sigh, I listened to that song 'Wedding Invitation Street' last night and couldn't sleep all night. My mind was full of images of the past."
"Me too……"
"So I took the bus here early this morning, and I didn't expect everyone to be here."
"I wonder when 'Wedding Invitation Street' will be released as a CD. I'd like to buy a copy and listen to it..."
"I just asked the owner of the record store, and he said the CDs won't arrive until at least April or May, but he also mentioned that pirated copies might be available online very soon..."
"I want to buy the official version to support the singer. I'm so old, I almost cried while singing..."
soon……
The original inhabitants of Wedding Invitation Street also noticed something was wrong.
Why are there so many police officers?
And they've even put up a police cordon!?
"We're just here to reminisce, why are you making such a big fuss? Don't you think we're causing trouble again?" an old man exclaimed in surprise.
At this moment, a Phoenix TV reporter, accompanied by a cameraman, stepped forward and asked, "Uncle, hasn't the demolition compensation already been paid? What other demands do you have for the Hong Kong government that you've gathered here today?"
A policeman who looked like a leader next to him also said, "Everyone, let's talk things out and not cause trouble. This is a society governed by law!"
The elderly man being interviewed frowned: "We just came to take a look, we didn't say we wanted to cause trouble..."
The reporter and the police were both taken aback.
No, you can come and take a look, but why are there forty or fifty people here?
The old man realized what was happening and laughed, "You didn't think we were here for the demolition compensation again, did you? No, no, we just came here to reminisce about the lost Wedding Invitation Street after hearing a song..."
Reporter: "A song?"
Police officer: "What's going on?!"
Then, several middle-aged men and elderly people gathered around and recounted what had happened. The police and reporters, having understood the situation, were left speechless, both amused and exasperated…
A false alarm.
The police were relieved, but the Phoenix TV reporter's eyes lit up instantly—this story was definitely more reliable than the previous "trouble"!
So the reporters interviewed the old men one by one, recording their feelings about listening to music last night.
The more the reporter listened, the brighter his eyes became.
With his keen intuition honed from over a decade as a reporter for Phoenix TV, Richard Li was certain that today's news would make the headlines.
Because this news story contains many eye-catching elements such as "wedding invitation street," "trouble," "false alarm," "new song," "good-sounding," "Shen Qing," "Zhang Liangying," and Hong Kong girl "Deng Ziqi"...
It would be hard not to become a viral news story.
After spending half an hour conducting the interview and copying pirated audio files from the online store owner, Li Zekai rushed back to the TV station without stopping.
Immediately write articles and edit videos.
……
noon.
Whether it's elderly people at home or white-collar and blue-collar workers eating out, they all have the habit of watching the news.
Hong Kong only has a few local TV stations, so each station has a high viewership rating.
Liu Dehua, who has been suffering from insomnia due to Yang Lijuan's recent annoyances, has just woken up and is having lunch at home with his girlfriend. Phoenix TV is playing on the television.
Carol Chu: "Don't worry, they may return to the mainland soon."
Andy Lau: "I wish I could too! Dealing with fans like this is such a headache. His father even threatened suicide to force me to meet his daughter..."
Carol Chu: "It's okay, let's eat first, and we'll talk after we eat."
After taking a few bites, Andy Lau saw the footage of Wedding Invitation Street on TV and laughed, "Wasn't this street demolished a long time ago? Why are people still making a fuss..."
now.
Voiceover sermon:
"Deng Ziqi, an artist under the management of renowned musical talent Shen Qing, debuted yesterday. Her first album, 'Bubble,' features the hit song 'Wedding Invitation Street,' which has sparked heated discussions. Many original residents of Lee Tung Street have returned to reminisce about the past... This has startled the police, who are on high alert. It's both funny and unexpected. What magic does this song possess?"
"Now, please enjoy this song with us."
When they heard the chorus, both Andy Lau and Carol Chu nodded slightly. Andy Lau smiled and said, "I know Shen Qing. He's a very talented music producer from mainland China. I didn't expect him to be so fluent in Cantonese..."
Carol Chu: "Ah, I know, is it Shen Qing who beat 'Protégé' in the Lunar New Year season? I heard his movie grossed over 500 million."
Andy Lau was both amused and exasperated: "Let's not talk about movies, okay? Let's talk about music. What do you think of 'Wedding Invitation Street'?"
Carol Chu: "It's very good. It has a faint sense of nostalgia and sadness. Anyway, it's quite nice to listen to. The little girl singing has a very special voice."
Andy Lau: "I also think it's good. What do you think about me asking him to write a song? I'll submit it to the 7th Olympic Song Submission Campaign... The deadline for this campaign is at the end of July. I'm not very satisfied with the songs written by the producers I've contacted..."
Carol Chu: "Sure, let's try contacting them..."
……
When Phoenix TV in Hong Kong broadcast its news...
The response was indeed very strong.
The TV station received many calls, with many people asking if the CD of "Wedding Invitation Street" was available for sale.
That evening, major television stations such as TVB, ATV, and Hong Kong Satellite TV reported on the farce that took place on "Wedding Invitation Street".
Moreover, print media such as Ming Pao, Sin Pao, and Wen Wei Po also began to follow up with reports.
[Residents of Wedding Invitation Street causing trouble? It turns out to be a false alarm; the real reason was a song!]
[A case sparked by a song!]
[Musical prodigy Shen Qing and his protégé challenge Hong Kong – who among the new generation can stand up to them?]
Deng Ziqi's new song became a hit in Hong Kong in this unexpected way, something Shen Qing hadn't anticipated.
This was followed by a flood of calls from Hong Kong to Taihe Wheatfield's headquarters, inquiring about when the CD would be available for sale.
Zhang Lu from Taihe Wheatfield was grinning from ear to ear, "Am I going to make another small fortune this time?"
