The Douyin short video platform was still buzzing about the Xihong Zoo.
A series of previous events remained on the trending list.
However, the one thing most netizens were eager to know was when the Xihong Zoo would reopen, leading to a flood of new comments on the official account's comment section.
"It's the fifth day of the closure, when will it reopen?"
"Five days, do you know how I've spent these five days, I miss my Qiuqiu and Yuanyuan."
"It's been five days since I ate Xihong Zoo's free-range chicken, the chicken outside just doesn't taste as good anymore."
"The little one at home keeps asking to see the big tiger, when will we be able to see it again?"
"I finally made a trip from Modu, only to be told it was closed, my poor heart."
"I really want to go pet the big tiger and the big Xiji."
"I wonder if my Brother Xing is doing well these past five days, if he has any cigarettes, I've already prepared your favorite Huazi for you."
.......
Just as the netizens were eagerly awaiting news, a brand new video was uploaded to the official Xihong Zoo account.
As soon as the video was posted, it immediately attracted a large number of fans.
And when they saw the video's caption, their expressions varied.
"Finally, is it finally going to reopen?"
"My God, I've waited for five days, and I've finally got it."
"Quickly buy tickets and make a reservation, everyone."
"The park is being renovated, and new animals are appearing, is this true?"
"This version update will make the following changes: optimization of some area map models, adjustment of hero skills, Shi Difu's ultimate move 'Shidaolin Tou' changed to randomly fire 'Oligee' at the nearest target, new hero Little Raccoon, Giraffe..."
"Okay, okay, new animals are finally joining, I hope these new animals can be a little more normal."
......
Just when everyone thought this video was only to announce the reopening, the subsequent promotional film was also revealed.
Just like when Chen Kexin first saw the promotional film, these netizens were equally amazed by the content of the promotional film.
Although the animals that appeared in the video had all been seen in the zoo before.
This was the first time they had seen them so up close.
Some shots were even taken right up to the animals' faces, detailing even the fine hairs on their faces.
In just a moment, the video's play count soared, and the number of shares reached an astonishing figure.
"This is too explosive, it feels like watching an animal blockbuster."
"This is the kind of promotional film a zoo should have."
"I was charmed by a group of animals, especially the lion king's profile in the sun, it's so damn handsome."
"I'm rooting for Sister Hua, Sister Hua's fierce tiger roar is truly handsome."
"Stop arguing, I think the shots of the two little pallas' cats are the best, real men should like these."
"Social Shi Difu is still so cool, next time I'll get him a big gold chain."
"That's nothing, I think Mr. Golden Macaw is more elegant, he called out 'Daddy' three times in one shot."
"Isn't my Midlane Crocodile fierce? With that bite just now, he almost took down the photographer."
"I want to know what this was filmed with, drones probably can't achieve this effect, right?"
"Definitely not drones, so is there a possibility it was filmed by a golden eagle?"
"Truly talented individuals, I'm a bit worried for the new animals, will they be bullied by the other animals in the zoo?"
.......
As the netizens' heated discussions continued, the news of the Xihong Zoo's impending reopening once again went viral online.
This led to the instant sell-out of all ten thousand reservation slots for the reopening day.
Some scalpers were even selling the reservation slots for that day at two hundred yuan each, yet still, a large number of eager tourists chose to purchase them.
And amidst this atmosphere of anticipation, time swiftly moved to the next day.
As the clock struck 7 AM, a large crowd of tourists had already gathered outside the Xihong Zoo.
These early visitors immediately noticed the new changes to the Xihong Zoo.
Not only was the entrance grander, but many new facilities that were not present before had been added.
As the tourists marveled at these new changes, the next moment, the Paw Patrol, clad in smart uniforms, emerged from the park in a steady stream.
The tourists initially expected them to begin their usual training.
However, their subsequent actions were rather perplexing.
Under the leadership of Li Goudan, the dogs of the Paw Patrol formed two rows.
Seeing this, the tourists wisely made way, creating a clear path.
It was at this moment that music began to play from within the park.
The next second, to the stunned eyes of the tourists, a group of small figures emerged from the park.
These figures were holding long horns, drums, and even an organ.
Each one was playing with all their might.
Upon closer listening, one could discern that it was the recently popular song "Ace of Spades."
They played and walked towards the park entrance.
At first, the tourists thought it was a group of children holding musical instruments.
It was only when they got closer that they realized these small figures were actually a group of little monkeys dressed in human clothes.
The little monkeys seemed to have undergone professional training; not only were their formations neat, but each one kept pace with the rhythm.
The leading monkey conductor was particularly distinctive.
Its dark golden fur shimmered in the nascent sunlight, and it skillfully wielded its conductor's baton.
Witnessing such a magical scene, the tourists burst into laughter.
They never imagined that in just a few days, the Xihong Zoo would come up with yet another novel act.
"This is the first time I've known monkeys could be this cute."
"These monkeys are all so cute and well-behaved."
"What breed is the leader, why does it seem so different?"
"Seeing these monkeys reminds me of when a group of monkeys snatched my bag at the city zoo, the monkeys at the city zoo are truly ugly and aggressive."
"I was also beaten by monkeys at the city zoo, and I haven't been back since."
"Look at this place, and then look at the monkeys at the city zoo, it's a world of difference."
"Exactly, these monkeys are all polite, completely different from the monkeys at the city zoo."
"They even understand music, it seems they are a group of artistic monkeys."
"Where did Director Yang find these divine little monkeys?"
"Uh... it seems they said they recruited the monkeys from the city zoo."
"So these monkeys are the ones from the city zoo?"
"How awkward..."
......
As the tourists were engrossed in the performance of the little monkeys, various large trucks with distinctive designs were slowly arriving on the Animal Avenue outside the Xihong Zoo.
