On the TikTok short video platform, the buzz around West Rainbow Zoo hasn't died down yet.
The previous series of events still remain on the trending list.
What netizens care about most is when West Rainbow Zoo will reopen, leading to numerous new comments under the official account.
"It's been five days since closure, when will it reopen?"
"Five days - you don't know how I've spent these five days, I miss my Qiuqiu and Yuanyuan."
"Haven't had West Rainbow Zoo's free-range chicken for five days, other chicken just doesn't taste as good anymore."
"My kid keeps asking to see Big Axe, when can we see Big Axe again?"
"Came all the way from Shanghai only to find out it's closed - my poor heart!"
"Really want to pet Big Axe and Big Xiji!"
"I wonder how my gorilla bro is doing these past five days, if he has cigarettes to smoke. I've already prepared your favorite Huazi cigarettes for you."
.......
Just as netizens were eagerly waiting, a new video was uploaded to West Rainbow Zoo's official account.
As soon as the video was published, it immediately attracted numerous fans.
When they saw the video's description, their reactions were quite varied.
"Finally, is it finally reopening?"
"My goodness, waited five days for this!"
"Quick, book your tickets, brothers!"
"Park renovations and new animals arriving - is this for real?"
"The following changes will be made in this update: optimization of some area map models, hero skill adjustments, Mr. Poop's ultimate move 'Impending Doom' changed to randomly targeting the nearest object with an 'Oli-yeah', new heroes including Little Raccoon, Giraffe..."
"Nice, finally some new animals joining. Hope these new ones are a bit more normal..."
......
Just when everyone thought the video was merely announcing the reopening, the subsequent promotional footage was revealed.
Just like when Chen Kexin first saw the promotional video, these netizens were equally amazed by its content.
Although they had seen all these animals in the zoo before,
This was their first time seeing them up close like this in the video.
Some shots were taken so close to the animals' faces that you could clearly see their fur texture.
In almost no time, the video's view count kept climbing, and the number of shares reached an astonishing figure.
"This is absolutely mind-blowing, feels like watching a big-budget animal movie."
"Now this is what a zoo promotional video should be like!"
"Got stunned by a bunch of animals, especially that lion king's side profile in the sunlight - damn cool!"
"I'm team Sister Hua, Sister Hua's tiger roar is the real deal."
"Stop arguing, I think the shots of the two lynx cubs were the best - that's what real men should like."
"Our boy Mr. Poop is still so trendy, next time we gotta get him a big gold chain."
"That's nothing, I think Father Kong the parrot is more elegant, called out 'papa' three times in one shot."
"Isn't my mid-lane crocodile fierce? That bite almost took out the cameraman."
"Wonder what they used to film this, surely not drones?"
"Definitely not drones, so maybe, just maybe, it was filmed by the golden eagle?"
"Everyone's so talented here, I'm actually worried about the newcomer animals - will they face zoo bullying?"
.......
With netizens' heated discussions, the news of West Rainbow Zoo's reopening went viral again.
This led to all 10,000 reservation spots for opening day being claimed almost instantly.
Scalpers were even reselling reservation spots for 200 yuan each, yet there were still many eager visitors willing to buy them.
In this atmosphere of great anticipation, time quickly moved to the next day.
The clock had barely struck 7 AM when large crowds of visitors had already gathered outside West Rainbow Zoo.
These early arrivals immediately noticed West Rainbow Zoo's complete transformation.
Not only was the entrance more grand, but many new facilities had been added.
Just as visitors were marveling at these new changes, the next moment, the smartly uniformed Paw Patrol emerged from the park in formation.
Visitors thought they would begin their usual daily training as before.
However, their next actions left people somewhat puzzled.
Under Li Goudan's leadership, the Paw Patrol dogs lined up in two rows.
Seeing this, visitors thoughtfully cleared a path.
At this moment, music began playing from inside the park.
The next second, to visitors' amazement, two rows of small figures emerged from the park.
These figures were carrying various instruments - some with trumpets, some with drums, and even some with pipe organs.
Each one was playing enthusiastically.
Listening carefully, one could make out it was the currently popular "Ace of Spades."
They played while walking toward the park entrance.
At first, visitors thought they were children carrying instruments.
Only when they came closer did they realize these small figures were actually monkeys wearing human clothes.
The monkeys seemed professionally trained, not only maintaining neat formations but also keeping perfect rhythm.
The conductor monkey at the lead appeared particularly special.
Its dark golden fur gleamed in the morning sunlight, and it twirled its conductor's baton with flourish.
Seeing such an amazing sight, visitors broke into smiles.
They never imagined that in just a few days, West Rainbow Zoo would come up with something new again.
"Never knew monkeys could be this cute."
"These monkeys are all so adorable and well-behaved."
"What breed is that lead one? It looks so different."
"Seeing these monkeys reminds me of when my bag was stolen by monkeys at the City Zoo. The monkeys there were really ugly and aggressive."
"I was also beaten up by the City Zoo monkeys, haven't been back there since."
"Look at these ones, then look at the City Zoo monkeys - they're worlds apart."
"Exactly, these monkeys are all so polite, completely different from the City Zoo ones."
"And they understand music - they're artistic monkeys!"
"Where did Director Yang find these magical little monkeys?"
"Uh... I heard they actually took in the monkeys from the City Zoo."
"So these monkeys are the ones from the City Zoo?"
"This is awkward...."
......
As visitors were immersed in the little monkeys' performance, uniquely designed trucks began slowly arriving on the animal boulevard outside West Rainbow Zoo.
