July 7 marks the 89th anniversary of the 'July 7 Incident'. A number of Chinese celebrities have reposted CCTV News’s commemorative message. Taiwanese singer Pets Tseng, who just won the championship on “Sisters Who Make Waves 2026”, also joined the ranks for this “homework assignment.” Perhaps unfamiliar with how to use Weibo, she first left a comment in the comment section of CCTV News’s post. After realizing that it did not show up on her own homepage, she then used the repost feature and added a comment, resulting in her message appearing twice under the CCTV News post. Both messages were liked by a large number of fans and pushed to the top, clearly showcasing her popularity.
CCTV News’s message read: “The 89th anniversary of the July 7 Incident, let’s repost this together and remember!” On July 7, 1937, the July 7 Incident broke out. Countless sons and daughters of China fought bravely, launching the full-scale War of Resistance. Eighty-nine years have passed, and today’s China is no longer the China of 1937, yet the sorrow for our fallen compatriots and the pain of a shattered land shall never be forgotten. Never forget national humiliation, let our generation strive for self-improvement! July 7, 1937 must never be forgotten.
Pets Tseng left two messages: “Remember history! Cherish peace!” Senior 'Sisters Who Make Waves' contestant Cyndi Wang also reposted and wrote: “Remember history, honor our fallen heroes, our generation must strive for self-improvement.” Michelle Chen followed up shortly after: “Remember history, our generation must strive for self-improvement!”#
