These days, if you're handsome, even a scavenger won't go unnoticed. Just like the once wildly popular "Style God," who has now faded from the internet but is still fondly remembered by many netizens. Recently, another scavenger was spotted on the streets of Chengdu and exposed again via Weibo. Despite his scruffy appearance, he bears a striking resemblance to Nicholas Tse. This man has been dubbed "Garbage Brother" and has quickly gained popularity online.

From the photos shared by netizens, this man is wearing sunglasses and his profile looks very much like Nicholas Tse. The netizen also captioned the photo: "A fashionable scavenger on the streets of Chengdu, with a striking resemblance to Nicholas Tse. That gray-white hair, those tea-colored sunglasses, that hooded cap, and those half-length gloves - all exuding an overwhelming aura, instantly surpassing Style God." Netizens have crowned him "Garbage Brother."

It is reported that after "Garbage Brother" became famous, many netizens went to the streets of Chengdu in search of him, but none of them encountered him. According to those who have seen him, "Garbage Brother" is about 170 cm tall, around 30 years old, very handsome, and sometimes takes out scraps of cloth to embroider flowers. Some netizens suggested that if "Garbage Brother" is truly as handsome as rumored and resembles Nicholas Tse, then he could participate in impersonation shows, thereby improving his living conditions.

Regarding such incidents, I think there are two possibilities. One is hype; it's a deliberate attempt by a team with a specific goal to create another internet sensation like "Style God." The second possibility is that "Garbage Brother" is indeed a homeless scavenger, and his discovery was purely accidental. If this is the case, I hope that he can eventually find his place, just like "Style God."
