藏在胶带里的“长沙邀请函”

A roll of packing tape carries a Changsha local’s tender love letter to his hometown. A short video featuring Paopao, a little boy from Xi’an begging his mom to take him to Changsha, recently went viral across Chinese social media platforms. In the clip, Paopao shows his mother the printed line on the tape: “I’m from Changsha. It’s a lovely city. Do come visit whenever you get a chance.”

一卷胶带藏着长沙人的温柔告白。近日，一段西安小朋友“跑跑”向妈妈请求前往长沙的视频走红中国网络。视频中，跑跑展示给母亲的胶带上写着一句：“我来自长沙，长沙很美，有时间你一定要来看看。”

It is far more than a simple invitation — it is Peng Zhiwei, the tape maker’s sincere ode to his hometown. Peng later said he would invite Paopao and his whole family to tour Changsha.

这不仅是一封“邀请函”，也是胶带生产商彭志威对家乡的告白。后续，彭志威表示将邀请跑跑及其家人一同来长游玩。
