Chinese singer apologizes for giving wrong number at concert
Chinese mainland singer Zhang Jie's studio issued an apology late Monday for an incident in which Zhang shared what he claimed to be his personal phone number with fans. This led to the actual owner receiving a large number of unfamiliar calls and having to shut down the phone.
On Monday, Zhang's studio posted a statement on its official Weibo account, stating that during the interactive segment of Zhang's concert in Fuzhou, Fujian province, on Friday, Zhang mentioned a number without prior verification, causing trouble and distress to the owner of the number.
Since that day, the studio has been actively trying to contact the number's owner in hopes of offering a direct apology. Progress was made on Monday night, and they are currently negotiating a solution, it said.
The number's owner is from Shanghai, and the local telecom operator said the phone number is currently in normal status but switched off, not disconnected. The owner has not sought help from the operator either.
