  很多人都表示不明白为什么《速度与激情7》这部影片能火成这样,并且误以为是电影的营销手段做得好。事实上因为保罗·沃克的原因,让不少人自发地在各种社交平台上转发《速7》的消息。有一个经典的段子可以说明这一切——“你看了《速度与激情7》没有?” “看了。” “在哪里看的?” “朋友圈。”

  尽管影片的片方一再表示不愿意拿保罗·沃克来消费,但是因为他的离去,还是让不少中国影迷希望在电影院里缅怀他。加上《速7》在处理保罗结局的部分做得比较人性化,很多看完电影的观众都自发地在朋友圈转发影片的片尾曲《See you again》。这首歌在片尾响起的时候,配合之前六部电影的闪回片段,确实让很多粉丝泪崩。

  而这首热门单曲更是破了多项记录,传唱度之高。
