Chinese version:

星星是一位中国演员。他拍过一些电影,也拍过一些电视剧。他在中国不是非常有名,所以他没有很多工作机会,他需要更多的工作机会。2024年底,一个中国男人在微信上告诉星星:“我在一个有名的泰国电影公司工作。你可以来泰国拍电影。”星星很高兴,但是星星的女朋友嘉嘉不高兴。她根本不敢相信。她觉得:“太简单了吧?!”但是泰国电影公司帮星星买了两张飞机票,一张从中国去泰国,一张从泰国回中国。所以星星相信了这个泰国电影公司。星星太需要这个工作机会了,所以他愿意相信这个工作机会。他希望这个电影会让他越来越有名。


2025年1月2号晚上,星星飞到了泰国。一开始他有一点害怕,所以他不断地跟嘉嘉发短信,也不断地给嘉嘉他的定位。但是1月3日上午,星星突然不给嘉嘉发短信了。嘉嘉给他打电话也根本没有人回答。星星的最后一个定位在泰国和缅甸的边界。星星不见了。嘉嘉非常害怕。她马上打电话给警察。中国的警察根本不在乎星星。他们不愿意帮助星星。警察对嘉嘉说:“星星不是在中国不见了的,他是在泰国不见了的。我们根本帮不了你。”


嘉嘉哭了,她每天都哭,因为她根本不知道怎么办。突然嘉嘉想到:“我需要在微博告诉大家星星不见了。我需要告诉星星的家人和朋友星星不见了。我需要中国人和泰国人一起帮助我找星星。”嘉嘉马上在微博写了这个故事。她也@了很多中国的明星。中国的明星姚晨、舒淇、秦岚、陈坤、金晨等等都分享了这个故事。因为这些明星都非常有名,中国人看到了明星分享这个故事,所以大家都分享了这个故事。很快,整个中国都知道星星不见了。


星星去了哪里呢?他被几个男人拉着,被带到了缅甸。这个地方在缅甸和泰国的边境,叫做KK Park。这里非常有名,中国人都知道这里,也很害怕这里。因为有很多很多中国人被骗,被拉到这里给KK Park的人工作。如果他们不愿意工作,就会被打。KK Park的人也会打电话给他们的家人要钱。如果家人敢不给钱,这些中国人又会被打。所以这些人不敢不工作。


星星一到这里就被打了。他的头发也被剃光了。所以星星不敢跑,他太害怕了,每天都哭。他希望警察会帮他。嘉嘉也每天都哭,但是嘉嘉没有放弃。她飞到了泰国,请泰国的警察帮忙。泰国的警察也很害怕,因为现在星星很有名。整个中国都知道星星不见了,大家都觉得泰国不安全。所以中国人都不敢去泰国玩了。现在中国的警察也不敢不帮星星了,所以他们和泰国的警察一起找星星,很快找到了星星。


泰国警察告诉星星:“我们希望大家来泰国玩,你能不能告诉大家泰国很安全。”星星看起来太糟糕了。他没有头发,他又瘦又累,而且他的腿是红色的。可是他还是告诉大家:“泰国很安全。希望大家不要害怕,不要不敢来泰国。我还是会来泰国玩的。”现在星星红了。他非常非常有名。整个中国都知道星星了,整个世界都知道星星了。

English version:

Star is a Chinese actor. He has acted in several movies and TV dramas. However, he is not very famous in China, so he doesn’t get many job opportunities. He needs more work. At the end of 2024, a Chinese man contacted Star on WeChat, saying, “I work at a famous Thai film company. You can come to Thailand to make movies.” Star was very excited, but his girlfriend, Jia Jia, was not happy. She couldn’t believe it at all. She thought, “This is too easy, isn’t it?!” However, the Thai film company bought two plane tickets for Star: one from China to Thailand and another from Thailand back to China. Because of this, Star believed in the Thai film company. Star desperately needed this job, so he was willing to believe in the opportunity. He hoped the movie would make him more and more famous.


On the evening of January 2, 2025, Star flew to Thailand. At first, he felt a little scared, so he kept texting Jia Jia and constantly shared his location with her. However, on the morning of January 3, Star suddenly stopped texting Jia Jia. When she tried calling him, no one answered at all. Star’s last known location was at the border between Thailand and Myanmar. Star had disappeared. Jia Jia was terrified. She immediately called the police. But the Chinese police didn’t care about Star. They were unwilling to help him. The police told Jia Jia, “Star didn’t disappear in China. He disappeared in Thailand. There’s nothing we can do to help.”


Jia Jia cried. She cried every day because she had no idea what to do. Suddenly, she thought, “I need to tell everyone on Weibo that Star is missing. I need to tell Star’s family and friends that he’s missing. I need both Chinese and Thai people to help me find Star.” Jia Jia immediately wrote about the situation on Weibo. She also tagged many Chinese celebrities. Famous stars like Yao Chen, Shu Qi, Qin Lan, Chen Kun, Jin Chen, and others shared the story. Because these celebrities are very popular, Chinese people saw their posts and kept sharing the story. Soon, the entire China knew that Star was missing.


Where did Star go? He was dragged by a group of men and taken to Myanmar. The place he was taken to is located at the border of Myanmar and Thailand and is called KK Park. This place is infamous—Chinese people know about it and fear it. Many Chinese people have been scammed and brought there to work for the people at KK Park. If they refuse to work, they are beaten. The people at KK Park also call their families to demand money. If their families dare to refuse, these Chinese victims are beaten again. As a result, these people don’t dare to stop working.


As soon as Star arrived, he was beaten. His hair was shaved off. So, Star didn’t dare to run away. He was too scared and cried every day, hoping the police would help him. Jia Jia cried every day too, but she didn’t give up. She flew to Thailand and asked the Thai police for help. Even the Thai police were afraid because Star was now very famous. The entire China knew about Star’s disappearance, and everyone thought Thailand was unsafe. As a result, Chinese people were afraid to travel to Thailand. Now, the Chinese police also couldn’t refuse to help. They worked with the Thai police to search for Star and soon found him.


The Thai police told Star, “We hope everyone will come to Thailand to visit. Can you tell people that Thailand is safe?” Star looked terrible. He was bald, thin, exhausted, and his legs were red. However, he still told everyone, “Thailand is safe. I hope people won’t be afraid and won’t hesitate to come to Thailand. I’ll still visit Thailand myself.” Now Star is famous. He’s incredibly well-known. The entire China knows about Star, and now the entire world does too.
