Walking into 'double-speed' world: Mainland influencer shares experience in HK
A mainland Chinese influencer recently shared his experiences of living in Hong Kong, describing it as a "double-speed world."
In his video, the influencer highlighted four main aspects of HK's fast-paced lifestyle, including the speed of walking, escalators, restaurant service, and taxis, which he compared to the drift racing scenes in the movie "Initial D".
The influencer, who goes by the name "Call Me Teacher Zheng" on the social platform Xiaohongshu, posted a video titled "Studying in HK: Everyone is living at double speed".
In the video, he listed four striking features to present HK as a "double-speed" world. First, he noted that people walk at "double speed." If you walk even a little slower in a crowd, you'll feel as though you're committing a crime, he said.
Next, he recalled his first time on an escalator in HK, saying his flip-flops almost flew off due to the speed.
The third observation was about dining in HK restaurants, where the waitstaff takes orders at lightning speed. The influencer humorously acted out a scene in which a restaurant server stares down a customer the moment the customer hesitates, clicking a pen impatiently, with eyes that seemingly say, "Hurry up!"
Finally, he likened the speed of HK taxis to the drift racing scenes in "Initial D", claiming that the taxis practically "drift" around corners like race cars.
The video sparked widespread discussion among viewers, many of whom shared their own experiences of HK's fast-paced life.
