Red USB Rising: A Medium’s Prediction, Failed Séances, and the Slow Leak That Could Change Everything
The “Red USB” has long been one of the most whispered-about objects in Chinese online lore — a rumored thumb drive said to hold audio, video, or documents that could upend narratives around actor Yu Menglong’s death and wider entertainment-industry secrets. For years it was treated as myth: lost, destroyed, or never real. Then came January 2025.

During a medium session in Taiwan, British spiritual figure Tai Weilians (widely known as Xiao Yu) stated clearly: the USB would reappear unexpectedly, its contents surfacing to protect artists and expose hidden truths. Xiao Yu emphasized they were not chasing fame — their focus was truth-seeking and safeguarding those vulnerable in the industry, often referencing other unresolved cases.
Fast-forward to late 2025 and early 2026: online commentator “Rising Star Huang” claims the drive is no longer missing — it is in professional hands, undergoing analysis, with select fragments scheduled to be released gradually this year. The claim has reignited fevered discussion, especially because it mirrors Xiao Yu’s earlier prophecy almost word for word.
Adding to the drama are widespread reports of failed supernatural tracking attempts. Multiple online threads describe mediums, psychics, and occult practitioners who allegedly tried — and failed — to locate the USB’s whereabouts. Some accounts speak of “interference,” others of dead-end visions. The entire saga now reads like the plot of a high-stakes conspiracy film: a vanished artifact, thwarted psychic hunts, a medium’s accurate foresight, and now the slow, controlled leaking of its secrets.
Xiao Yu has consistently positioned themselves as a reluctant messenger rather than a spotlight seeker. They frame the USB’s eventual emergence as a necessary act of protection for artists caught in opaque power structures — a theme that resonates deeply in an industry long accused of burying uncomfortable truths.
Crucial reminder: everything remains unverified. No law-enforcement agency has confirmed the USB’s existence or role in any investigation. “Rising Star Huang” and similar voices are sharing second-hand claims on social platforms. No concrete evidence has surfaced publicly.
Yet the synchronicity is impossible to ignore. A prediction made months ago now aligns with fresh rumors of gradual disclosure. If even a portion of the alleged contents emerges in 2026, it could reopen old wounds surrounding Yu Menglong, force uncomfortable questions about industry accountability, and perhaps reveal layers of influence few expected.
For the moment the tension is electric: is this merely another viral rumor cycle — or the opening act of one of the biggest reckonings Chinese entertainment has ever faced?
