Actor Wang Xing was rescued from a Myanmar online fraud farm! This setting on your phone can save your life at a critical moment

Actor Wang Xing, who was deceived and lost contact at the Thai-Myanmar border, was successfully rescued on the afternoon of January 7. On January 8, Tachachai, Inspector General of the Thai National Police, said in an interview with Thai media that preliminary investigations confirmed that Chinese actor Wang Xing was a victim of human trafficking, and the follow-up plan was to send him back to China within 1 to 2 days.

Thai police said Wang Xing was deceived into going abroad to participate in a casting, and went to Myanmar via Thailand, but found out he was deceived after arriving in Myanmar. The police clarified that Wang Xing did not suffer any physical harm.

And all this is thanks to the textbook rescue by Wang Xing’s girlfriend Jia Jia.

In the early morning of January 3, after Xingxing landed in Bangkok and got on the contact person's car, Jiajia kept in touch with Xingxing and asked Xingxing to send his location every once in a while. It was because of this that Jiajia noticed the deviation of the position in time and called the police and contacted the Chinese Embassy in Thailand immediately.

It can be seen that mobile phone positioning played a key role in this incident.

"Emergency call" is a basic function that all mobile phones will be equipped with. In China, as long as the mobile phone is connected to the cellular network, regardless of whether your number is in arrears, whether the phone is unlocked, or even without a SIM card inserted, you can quickly dial 110, 119, 120, 122, these police or rescue numbers through emergency calls. But if you are abroad, you need to call the local emergency number for help, so you must know the local emergency number in advance when traveling abroad.

But from this incident, we can see that the positioning of mobile phones is not affected by foreign environments and can be used normally. Let's see how to turn on the function of sending emergency location.

iPhone

For Chinese users, the official version of iOS 16.4 has a very important safety feature, which can be said to be related to the safety of life and property. SOS emergency service, when users encounter danger, crisis, distress or any emergency help, they can call 110/119/120/122 and other four emergency alarm numbers. Through this function, the on-site location can be synchronized with the alarm station in the accident area in real time.
