A traditional Chinese toy known as the "bamboo cicada" has attracted widespread attention after netizens noticed its whirring sound closely resembles the "wow" gasps from audiences at Huawei product launches. The spinning toy, designed to mimic a cicada's call, inspired a wave of social media parody videos mimicking those audience reactions. Huawei subsequently filed complaints with major platforms claiming brand reputation damage, leading to the mass removal of the clips. Legal experts noted that the videos went beyond harmless fun by using clever allusions and sound editing to mock the corporation. #hkeye #china #chinanews #huawei #huaweicar #suv #bamboocicada #cicada #toy #traditionaltoys#oldtoy #gasp #wow #productlaunch #huaweiproduct #legal #mimic #brandreputation #audience#mock
