Chương 1315: GGS-CHAPTER 1092 THE SENSATION CAUSED BY A LIGHT
They were amazed that the fire wouldn't go out, yet thrilled that they still had a chance. Of course, many people were puzzled. If water couldn't extinguish it and flour couldn't smother it, then how could they put out the fire?
"What's going on? The flour completely covered it. How can it still burn?"
"Did I get my knowledge of physics and chemistry wrong? One of the conditions for a flame to burn is to come into contact with oxygen. If it's completely covered by flour, it shouldn't have access to any oxygen. Why does it continue to burn? This is so unscientific, this is completely illogical."
"This is truly mind-boggling."
Inside the second-floor private room, Lin Hao, Xiao Rui, Shi Lei, Qian Yingzhu, Wang Yan, and the others were also dumbfounded.
Not only could water not extinguish the flame, but even the flour couldn't smother it. Obviously, what they had discussed earlier about water decomposing into hydrogen and oxygen didn't hit the mark.
They continued to discuss among themselves, but this time they were astonished and recalling their knowledge of physics. They had no further guesses because it was too contrary to common sense, and their brains couldn't handle it.
Several students who were eager to go down earlier now lost their impetus. The problem they faced wasn't just the long queue but also how to extinguish the seemingly inextinguishable flame. Besides water and flour, what other methods could they use?
The activity continued, and people poured soil on it, blew it with a fan, and sprayed it with a fire extinguisher, but the flame kept burning. Some thought that the simplest method might be the most effective, so they tried blowing it with their mouths, but it didn't extinguish the flame either.
Some used a water hose, others poured a bucket of icy water, some used mud, while others tried the opposite approach and sprayed gas on it, perhaps hoping to rapidly burn up the oil lamp and then extinguish it. But in the end, all attempts failed.
Various firefighting methods emerged at this moment, ranging from scientific and reliable methods to completely absurd methods. Many people earnestly searched on Baidu, studying the conditions for flame combustion and firefighting methods.
This activity turned out to be more useful than a fire prevention and safety education session.
Some people wanted to poke it with a stick, but that was not allowed as it violated the rules of the activity. Even if they pressed it with a stick, it wouldn't extinguish.
However, if they dug out the wick, separating it from the lamp oil, then the flame's lifespan would certainly be significantly reduced, as the lamp's magic truly lay in the lamp oil.
Failure, failure, and more failure. Many people had a lot of confidence before attempting to extinguish the flame but after trying, they felt helpless. However, only a few people left.
Some gathered around to watch the spectacle, while others continued to wait in line. It even attracted more curious onlookers, and the entire Times Square was packed with people.
"It's so lively here. What's going on?"
"I heard that the Galactic Corporation Group is showcasing their latest research. The rule is that you can't directly touch or use a solid object to extinguish the oil lamp, other than that, you can use any method to extinguish the flame and if you are successful then you can win One Million Yuan."
"Is this true or fake? Can such a good opportunity really exist?"
"It's true. The Galactic Corporation Group wouldn't tarnish its reputation over a mere One Million Yuan. But I heard that many people had already used water or even a fire extinguisher, yet no one has managed to put it out."
"Wow, what are those people doing? They can't even extinguish an oil lamp with water. Are they that useless? I'm going to join the line. Here I come, One Million Yuan."
More people joined the queue to try their luck. Those who arrived later thought the people in front must be fools or losers since they couldn't even put out a simple oil lamp.
However, when it was finally their turn, they confidently stepped forward to try, only to end up with the same result as their predecessors— Failure.
Additionally, some onlookers who temporarily gave up joined the crowd and couldn't help but take videos and share them online, causing even greater reactions from people all over the country.
"Wow, is this video true or fake? A simple oil lamp that can't be extinguished by water, covered with flour, or even a fire extinguisher."
"The video should be real. The Galactic Corporation Group is hosting an event, and they say that the lamp is their latest research achievement. But I have no idea what the principle behind it is. It's just too incredible."
"The Longteng International Times Square in Zhongyun City. It's not far from where I am. I should go and give it a try. Maybe that One Million Yuan will be mine."
"Don't be too presumptuous. If so many people have failed, it means it's definitely not that easy. Let's study it first before going."
A wave of public interest in learning firefighting skills gradually surged. The Longteng International Times Square became more lively than ever before.
Even the surrounding shops saw an increase in their business. It was an unprecedented grand scene that had never happened before on normal days.
Inside the private room on the second floor of the Longteng International Hotel, Su Jing's classmates were dumbfounded as they witnessed the growing spectacle and increasing enthusiasm.
They had originally thought it was just a small activity, but now it seemed that the event needed to be even bigger. If it continued like this, it would become a phenomenon. The longer the flame lasted, the greater the impact will it causes.
It was evident that Su Jing took advantage of public participation. With a One Million Yuan reward and the premises that anyone could participate in, and without any conditions or requirements, it naturally caught the attention of the public.
After all, only a minority of people would disregard such a large sum of money.
"This wave of publicity, if it can last for a day, the advertising benefits would be amazing. The One Million Yuan Reward would be well worth it," Shi Lei remarked.
"Look at A'Jing's expression. I think he wants it to last more than just a day," Lin Hao glanced at Su Jing, who seemed calm and composed, and smiled.
"Third Brother, how many days do you think it can last? I just saw online that the fire department is also interested in this event, and some researchers have raised some doubts, suspecting that there must be a trick behind it and are coming to expose it," Xiao Rui said.
In their view, although an ordinary person might not be able to extinguish the fire, there must be a way to put it out. The fire department and professional researchers were not comparable to ordinary individuals.
