A local content creator's joke about getting Chinese milk tea chain Chagee to open an outlet at Northpoint City has ended with him getting a life-sized standee of himself outside the store.
Muhammad Rifqi Solihin Muhammad Hairi, 25, first joked about the outlet after craving Chagee while he was in Kuala Lumpur for work, according to Berita Harian (BH) on Wednesday (Oct 7).
The travel content creator, known for his China-related content, said he started making Chagee-related videos in April, as a break from producing more structured and polished content.
His first video received about 9,990 likes, prompting him to make around 16 Chagee-related videos, mostly unpaid collaborations, BH reported.
One recurring joke was his request for Chagee to open an outlet at Northpoint City, so that he can enjoy their BOYA Jasmine Green Tea.
This Singaporean told BH he never expected the request to become a reality, but Chagee began responding to his videos before he learnt that the brand would indeed open an outlet at the mall.
As the opening approached, Rifqi made another joke, asking whether Chagee could place a life-sized standee of him at the Yishun outlet.
To his surprise, Chagee contacted him to say that the idea has been approved.
"I was really surprised and couldn't believe it. Because it all started as a joke," he told BH.
The standee was produced while Rifqi was in China.
The Chagee outlet in Northpoint City finally opened in late September.
The standee was initially meant to be displayed until Sept 29, but after friends and fellow content creators overseas asked for more time to see it, Chagee reportedly agreed to extend the display until Oct 13.
Rifqi said he now hopes to visit Chagee's factory in China, bring the standee to other outlets and create his own drink with the brand.
No new collaboration has been confirmed, but he told BH: "These are all dreams, but I don't think they are impossible. Let's just wait and see."
AsiaOne has reached out to Chagee and Rifqi for more information.

一位本地内容创作者开玩笑说要让中国奶茶连锁店 Chagee 在 Northpoint City 开一家分店，结果他真的在店外得到了一个真人大小的立牌。
据《每日新闻》（Berita Harian，简称BH）周三（10月7日）报道，25岁的穆罕默德·里夫基·索利欣·穆罕默德·海里（Muhammad Rifqi Solihin Muhammad Hairi）在吉隆坡出差时，突然想吃Chagee，于是开玩笑地提出了开店的想法。
这位以中国相关内容而闻名的旅行内容创作者表示，他从四月份开始制作与 Chagee 相关的视频，以此来放松一下，不再制作结构更严谨、更精致的内容。
据 BH 报道，他的第一个视频获得了约 9990 个赞，这促使他制作了大约 16 个与 Chagee 相关的视频，其中大部分是无偿合作。
他经常开玩笑说，希望 Chagee 在 Northpoint City 开一家分店，这样他就可以喝到他们的 BOYA 茉莉花绿茶了。
这位新加坡人告诉BH，他从未想过这个请求会变成现实，但在得知该品牌确实将在商场开设门店之前，Chagee就开始回应他的视频了。
随着开业日期的临近，Rifqi 又开了个玩笑，问 Chagee 是否可以在义顺分店放置一个他的真人大小的立牌。
令他惊讶的是，查吉联系他说这个想法已经获得批准。
“我当时真的非常惊讶，简直不敢相信。因为这一切都是从开玩笑开始的，”他告诉BH。
这个立牌是在里夫基在中国期间制作的。
位于北角城的 Chagee 门店终于在九月下旬开业了。
该立牌最初计划展出至 9 月 29 日，但海外的朋友和内容创作者同行要求延长展出时间后，据报道，Chagee 同意将展出时间延长至 10 月 13 日。
Rifqi表示，他现在希望参观Chagee在中国的工厂，将立牌带到其他门店，并用该品牌打造自己的饮品。
目前尚未确认任何新的合作，但他告诉BH：“这些都是梦想，但我认为并非不可能。让我们拭目以待吧。”
AsiaOne已联系Chagee和Rifqi以获取更多信息。
