bloody middle east.

in recent days, the explosions of pagers, walkie-talkies and other communication equipment in lebanon have shocked the world. according to xinhua news agency, informed sources in lebanon, the united states and other countries said that pager explosions occurred simultaneously across lebanon on the afternoon of the 17th, causing a large number of casualties. this was because israeli intelligence agencies planted a small amount of explosives in pagers ordered by hezbollah from an overseas company a few months ago.

the pager became a grenade, and some believed that the attack set a "terrible precedent."

surprisingly, after the explosion attracted global attention, shenzhen huaqiangbei, a "global electronics market center", was actually involved in rumors of "explosive orders" for communications equipment.

securities times reporter learned that there have been market rumors these days that due to the impact of the explosion of telecommunications equipment in lebanon, "huaqiangbei is now suddenly experiencing a surge in orders, with many products requiring full production in china, and no third-country components are allowed."

according to cctv news, on september 19, local time, the lebanese ministry of public health said that the explosion of communication equipment in the country has caused 37 deaths and 2,931 injuries. many people said they were afraid and dared not use mobile phones and batteries; some electronic product store owners said that for the sake of caution, some communication equipment was temporarily removed from the shelves.

in a letter sent to the un security council on the same day, the lebanese permanent mission to the united nations stated that the lebanese government's preliminary investigation found that explosives had been implanted in the communications equipment before it arrived in the country, and someone sent electronic information to the equipment to detonate it.

are the explosions of these electronic products really leading to an explosion in sales of communication equipment such as pagers and walkie-talkies in huaqiangbei?

on the morning of september 20, a securities times reporter visited several markets in huaqiangbei and found few pager sales counters. on some third-party e-commerce platforms, there were currently no new pagers for sale.

in huaqiangbei market, all the merchants selling walkie-talkies said that they were not experiencing a surge in orders. the reporter also saw that the few walkie-talkie sales counters were extremely deserted.

a walkie-talkie salesman told the reporter: "the possibility of a walkie-talkie exploding is extremely small. i have been in the walkie-talkie business for so many years and have never heard of an explosion. for example, the lithium battery of this walkie-talkie is nominally 1500 mah, but in fact it is only about 800 mah. it will definitely not explode for no reason."

the merchant also said that it has not received any so-called emergency orders from the middle east and everything is going according to plan. the situation faced by several other walkie-talkie merchants interviewed by the reporter is basically similar, but some merchants also said that it may still be in the early stages of the incident and the possibility of "explosion of orders" in the future cannot be ruled out.

in addition, when the reporter visited the huaqiangbei market, he also found that many merchants were indeed discussing the possible impact of the explosion of telecommunications equipment in lebanon.
