In the bustling Jinrongjie area of Beijing, a popular public square has long been a nighttime hotspot for amateur dancers. Their energetic routines bring life to the community, but the loud music has been a source of frustration for local residents.
Unable to find peace in their own homes, families and schoolchildren struggled with the constant noise, making it difficult to rest and study. Many turned to the Beijing 12345 Citizen Hotline to voice their concerns and seek a solution.
Responding to the community’s needs, local officials collaborated with scientists to devise an innovative answer. They introduced directional sound wave technology, which allows the music to be heard clearly by the dancers without projecting it loudly into the surrounding residential areas.
This technological breakthrough restored harmony in the neighborhood. Dancers continue to enjoy their evening gatherings, while residents experience the tranquility they longed for. The inspiring story is featured in the CGTN documentary “Hotline Beijing,” highlighting how cooperation and innovation can resolve community challenges.
