Paul Wong pays tribute to rock classics
Return to Beyonds rock era
For many people who grew up with Beyond music, seeing Paul Wong pick up his guitar again under the soft lights of Zuma is not only a nostalgic journey, but also a firm affirmation of the spirit of rock and roll - rock and roll can still inspire people and gather strength. Beyond band profoundly influenced Hong Kong culture in the 1980s and 1990s. They used free and thoughtful lyrics combined with passionate rhythms to sing the voices of young people in that era when they faced drastic changes.
When Paul Wong played the first note, the whole audience was immediately excited. Fans sang along with the classic melodies that accompanied their youth, and the audience who listened for the first time were quickly infected. He skillfully integrated modern arrangements into traditional melodies, showing the resilience and tolerance of rock music, and proving that even in todays world that emphasizes digital collections and decentralization, classics can still transcend time and continue to move peoples hearts.
Emotions, memories and collective resonance
Nostalgia is a powerful connecting force, and Paul Wong uses music to closely connect the past and the present. Every time he plays a passionate guitar solo, it is not only a tribute to the golden age of rock, but also a symbol of the blockchain culture wave that is promoting new values. After the performance, many audiences described the night as both intimate and shocking, which fully demonstrated that shared memories can transcend the boundaries of age and industry, and even participants who have just come into contact with new technologies can find belonging and resonance in it.
The intersection of music and blockchain
The true power of Web3 innovation
Before Paul Wong took the stage, the venue was already full of sparks of communication and collision. Guests from Web3, venture capital circles and creative industries had a lively discussion in a relaxed atmosphere. As the sound of clinking glasses and exchanging business cards rang out, the topic naturally turned to blockchain technology - this tool, which was once considered only for cryptocurrency transactions, is now gradually changing the landscape of the entire creative economy.
Guests shared their observations and practices on the application scenarios of NFT (non-fungible tokens) and DeFi (decentralized finance), as well as how these technologies empower artists and promote closer connections between communities. The atmosphere of communication was relaxed but full of tension, more like a cultural salon than an ordinary roundtable forum.
You can think of blockchain as a new backdoor pass, one guest described it this way. It allows artists and fans to establish a more direct and transparent relationship. There are no middlemen, no black box operations, only a music journey that is participated in and owned together.
Zuma Hong Kong: A fusion of tradition and future
High-end restaurants transformed overnight
Zuma Hong Kong, which originally featured modern Japanese cuisine, was remodeled into a futuristic space full of technology that night. As soon as the guests walked into the venue, they were attracted by the visual and layout of the blockchain concept. The restaurants original elegant and refined style has been transformed into a cutting-edge social venue, and the signature Japanese snacks and creative cocktails are the icing on the cake for this multi-sensory experience.
XT.COM’s seven-year journey: from a startup team to a community-driven force
Going through bull and bear markets, sticking to the original intention
Since its establishment, XT.COM has experienced several rounds of ups and downs in the crypto market. Amid the ups and downs of the industry, XT.COM has always adhered to the two cores of technological innovation and community building, and gradually gained a firm foothold in the blockchain ecosystem. Brand representatives said that their criteria for measuring the value of the platform are not only based on transaction data, but also focus on whether they can truly establish a long-term and meaningful cooperative relationship.
We have always believed that the value of blockchain lies not only in asset transactions, but also in building bridges that connect people and cultures, said a spokesperson for XT.COM. Whether it is a bull market or a bear market, our original intention remains unchanged: to promote collaboration, support talents, and create sustainable ecological value.
#BeyondTrade Action Concept
This is also the core of the #BeyondTrade project launched by XT.COM. Through cultural carriers such as music, life and the Web3 world are integrated together. This VIP night in Hong Kong is a bold attempt. Music has become a language of resonance, and blockchain technology has become a tool to break the barriers of the traditional entertainment industry. #BeyondTrade not only focuses on technological breakthroughs, but also emphasizes real-life applications and emotional connections, establishing a new paradigm for crypto platforms that transcend finance and are close to life.
Highlights of the event
Red Carpet Stars and Media Focus
The event kicked off with a warm red carpet ceremony. Many media, bloggers and social media influencers gathered at the scene to record the wonderful scenes. Paul Wong appeared in a minimalist suit, hiding his stage style; while guests from the blockchain circle exchanged pleasantries while discussing the development trend of the creative economy. The intersection of rock spirit and Web3 energy set a passionate and trendy tone for the whole night.
Really valuable conversations
As a concurrent event of the Hong Kong Web3 Festival, the biggest feature of XT and You, the Sky is Big is the atmosphere of free communication. There were no formal forum speeches, but there were sincere conversations around NFT and DeFi. Artists, entrepreneurs and investors spoke freely and discussed how blockchain can help creators achieve more efficient content monetization and user interaction.
Paul Wongs rock comeback moment
The most anticipated segment of the night was Paul Wongs performance. His continuous guitar solos seemed to take people back to the golden age of Beyond, which drew applause and moved the audience. It felt like I had traveled to an era that I had never experienced, said a young audience member, expressing the cross-generational shock brought by the performance.
Socialize with ease and collaborate naturally
Zumas Lounge atmosphere catalyzed countless real connections. NFT creators and producers interacted enthusiastically, developers and investors exchanged projects, and many cooperation opportunities emerged. I originally just came to listen to Paul Wongs performance, but I ended up with three potential collaborations, a musician shared.
Blockchain’s growing influence in the creative industries
Empowering creative freedom and breaking down industry barriers
That night, the guests had an in-depth discussion on how blockchain can inspire artists creative freedom. It is generally believed that decentralized platforms allow musicians, visual artists and technology workers to break through the barriers in traditional industries and collaborate more freely across industries. Some participants shared how they used blockchain tools to jointly create music videos, interactive digital art, and even immersive experiences that combine reality and virtuality, and organized, stored and disseminated works through on-chain systems.
Create a community-centric creative model
A point that has been mentioned repeatedly is that blockchain is promoting more community-based creative ecosystems. Decentralized networks allow fans around the world to not only support creators, but also participate in content direction decisions, such as voting to decide themes, submitting ideas and materials. A guest said that they are preparing a decentralized creative community jointly operated by artists and fans to jointly plan exhibitions, digital performances and other art projects to truly achieve co-creation, co-construction, and sharing.
Building a creative community for the future
Inspiration flows, connection comes from the heart
Throughout the evening, naturally flowing conversations continued between musicians, artists, technology developers, and cultural and creative enthusiasts. Paul Wongs performance inspired many attendees to review their own creative paths and to imagine potential collaborations and artistic visions. From planning cross-border performances to conceiving new immersive works, these exchanges were far more than just small talk, but also a deep resonance of inspiration.
The resonant value behind #BeyondTrade
This VIP night is not only a collision of art and blockchain, but also reflects the spirit advocated by XT.COM #BeyondTrade - connecting different communities with culture and technology to inspire mutual resonance.
