30 minutes ago, the entire city of Shanghai was shocked by a horrific explosion at a luxury hotel located right in the center of Pudong. The fire raged fiercely, black smoke billowed into the sky. And amidst the scorched ruins, the name that made millions of people speechless was called: Alan Yu’s – a rising icon of the Asian entertainment industry – was trapped in a luxury room on the 12th floor and did not survive.

Witnesses recounted that tragic moment like a nightmare. “We were having dinner when a terrible explosion rang out, all the glass windows shook, and then smoke and fire came out from the upper floors,” a Korean tourist trembled as he shared. The fire alarm blared, hotel staff screamed and led guests to flee. In the chaos, paparazzi flashes flashed, capturing the scene of panicked fans jostling, some people collapsed and cried out when they heard that Alan Yu’s was in the hotel at that time.

Shanghai firefighters immediately deployed dozens of fire trucks and ambulances. Police blocked off the entire neighborhood, blocking thousands of curious onlookers who tried to get close to the scene. Firefighters rushed into the sea of ​​fire, pulling out many injured people in a state of panic. When they found Alan Yu, his body was scorched by the heat, and he was almost out of breath. Paramedics tried to perform CPR on the sidewalk, put on an oxygen mask, and used an electric shock machine multiple times. But all ended in a desperate shake of the head. A doctor burst into tears and said: “We did everything, but the injury was too severe, there was no way to save him.”

The news spread like lightning across the globe. Weibo crashed due to millions of searches for the keyword #GoodbyeAlanYu, Twitter and Instagram were submerged in a sea of ​​hashtags #PrayForAlan, #ShanghaiExplosion. Fans flocked to the hotel, carrying white flowers, candles, and portraits. The double incident occurred when the crowd pushed so hard that part of the protective fence collapsed, causing many fans to faint, leaving blood on the marble floor.

In a nearby hospital, the ICU was lit all night, but only for forensic procedures. The report confirmed that Alan Yu’s death was due to severe trauma and smoke inhalation in the gas explosion. His family from the US immediately flew to Shanghai, crying in despair outside the morgue. “He was not only a son, a husband, a father, but also the light of the whole family,” Alan’s mother choked up before the press.

The global entertainment industry was shaken. A Hong Kong movie star shared: “A flame of talent was taken away by the explosion.” A Chinese politician spoke out: “This is not just the loss of a family, but the loss of an entire culture.” In New York, Paris, and Tokyo, fans simultaneously held candlelight vigils.

The tragic climax ended when Alan Yu’s white flower-covered coffin was carried out of the hospital. The funeral procession slowly rolled through the streets of Shanghai, thousands of fans kneeling, holding candles in the drizzle. The sky was gloomy, smoke still lingered on the burning building, as if nature was also mourning the sudden departure.

Alan Yu’s – who inspired millions of audiences with his talent and sincerity – ended his life in a terrible explosion. But his smile, voice and works will forever resonate, immortal in the hearts of the world.
