According to a report on the website of the New York Times on October 13, Eric Chen, the director of a museum, said: "When you think of Hong Kong and visual culture, the first thing is the neon sign."
Since the mid-20th century, endless neon-lit high-rises have become as iconic as the Victoria Harbour and skyline of dense skyscrapers. However, Hong Kong's neon signboards, which have recently been hotly discussed by foreign media, may face the fate of being replaced by LED lights. The US media said that the iconic scenery has disappeared. And LED landscape lights are developing rapidly.
Today, as neon signs dwindle, they have become a classic handicraft and nostalgic. Collectors and museums buy old neon signs and keep them as folk art, while modern artists incorporate neon signs into their work.
Many neon signs in Hong Kong are now revoked every year because they do not meet the standards. Lights are withdrawn for safety and structural reasons. Neon sign makers and some experts say neon signs have been declining rapidly since the 1990s, as building controls in Hong Kong have tightened and many new signs have been made using light-emitting diodes (LEDs). LED lights lack the warmth of neon, but are brighter and less expensive to maintain.
Therefore, it is regrettable that neon lights are replaced, but it is also inevitable. With the continuous demonstration of the characteristics of green, environmental protection, energy saving, and affordable LED lights, more and more people have begun to pay attention to it. Nowadays, walking on the street is not difficult to find that many advertising signs have been decorated with guardrail tubes, LED line lights, and LED point light sources. These LED lights have become an indispensable part of landscape lighting. The billboards of Zhongchao are also built with our own LED line lights and street lights, which become a unique scenery at night.
