00:09The power outage happened to coincide with the evening rush hour.
00:12Traffic lights on several major roads also malfunctioned.
00:15The already congested traffic became even more chaotic.
00:19You can take a look at the photos.
00:20At an intersection, there were no traffic lights to direct traffic.
00:24The vehicles were all moving independently, squeezed together in the middle, creating a chaotic mess.
00:27The entire intersection was almost paralyzed.
00:30Some netizens uploaded road condition maps to the internet.
00:35Many roads were covered in red and yellow paint, causing severe traffic disruptions.
00:40With traffic still unable to return to normal.
00:43Some enthusiastic citizens and food delivery workers
00:45They stepped forward and voluntarily stood in the middle of the road to direct traffic.
00:49To ensure orderly traffic flow from different directions.
00:52Many netizens gave them a thumbs up.
00:54Besides the traffic chaos caused by malfunctioning traffic lights,
00:58The power outage also affected many businesses that were open for business.

01:11When a power outage occurs
01:12There were still 6 to 7 customers inside the store.
01:15The result was a serious disruption to the hairdressing service that was in progress.
01:19So the shop assistants simply let customers lend out their electric bikes.
01:23Only a hairdresser can perform hair-curling work.
01:26Moved to the corridor outside the store
01:28However, later on, the store became too dark.
01:31Everyone simply moved to the outdoor corridor to get their hair cut.
01:34The barbershop was unexpectedly transformed into an outdoor hair salon.
01:37This became an interesting scene during yesterday's power outage.
01:40Well, if a power outage catches businesses off guard...
01:43What if someone happens to be in the elevator when the power goes out?
01:46That would probably be a terrifying experience.

01:55He was about to take the elevator upstairs to the massage parlor
01:57I didn't expect that I had just entered the elevator
02:00Suddenly there was a power outage.
02:02They couldn't even open the door.
02:03They can only be trapped inside.
02:05Mr. Qiu said
02:06At that time, besides him, there was no one else in the elevator.
02:07There were also three young people from Singapore.
02:10At first
02:11Everyone thought it was just an elevator malfunction.
02:13Until I heard the staff knocking on the door

02:17That's when everyone realized things weren't so simple.
02:20They were trapped for about 50 minutes.
