Do you remember the fable of the town mouse and the country mouse? The town mouse lived in luxury but was constantly in fear, while the country mouse lived a simple but peaceful life. The recent story of a “blue plate supercar” that caused a stir online reflects a similar paradox.
The online “hunt” for the person who posted the picture of the blue plate supercar goes beyond a mere luxury vehicle. It touches upon several societal issues, from mob mentality to the culture of information transparency.
According to psychologist Robert B. Cialdini, author of “Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion,” people tend to follow the actions of the crowd. The image of the “blue plate supercar” on social media triggered a “sheep effect,” leading many to criticize and judge without accurate information.
The incident also highlights the power of the Internet in disseminating information. In a short time, the image of the car spread across social media platforms, attracting the attention of a vast online community.

In reality, seeing is not always believing. According to authorities, the car in the picture had been sold to a private individual long ago. The blue license plate was old and had not yet been replaced. The online “hunt” for the person who posted the picture was a spontaneous act by individuals lacking information.
The “blue plate supercar” incident exemplifies the culture of online “witch hunts.” Instead of verifying information, many people quickly share and comment based on emotions, leading to the spread of misinformation.

In East Asian culture, license plates are not just random numbers but hold feng shui significance. Many believe that a license plate with good feng shui will bring luck and prosperity to the owner. However, according to feng shui expert Li Lianhua, author of “The Mystery of Feng Shui,” “luck is created by people, not by license plates.”
The “blue plate supercar” story is a lesson for every social media user. Instead of blindly following the crowd, we need to be discerning and verify information before sharing.
