A Stolen Phone , an Orange Tree , Fame , and Friendship

It started out as a seemingly ordinary crime story .

Matt Stopera was out on the town with some friends in 2014 . He suddenly noticed his phone was missing . Panicked , he tried calling it . The call went to voicemail . That's when he knew . There was no point in filing a police report . His phone was gone .

A year later , unexpected photos started appearing in Stopera's cloud account : selfies of a man with an orange tree , fireworks , small hands pressed against a window . A friend suggested that Stopera's stolen phone might still be linked to the cloud . He also suggested the phone could be in China , where many stolen phones end up in second - hand shops . Stopera deleted the phone from his cloud account , rendering it useless . This is a step everyone should take if their phone is stolen , to protect their personal information .

Stopera was still curious about the man with the orange tree . He posted the photos on a popular website he worked for , asking for help finding the man . This is where the story really gets wild !

Someone translated Stopera's post and published it on a Chinese social media platform . Stopera's humorous writing and the intrigue of his story endeared him to people in China . He joined the Chinese microblogging site and within two days had 100 , 000 followers . Everyone was looking for Orange Tree Man !

They found him quickly . His name is Li Hongjun . A nephew recognized Li as the man in the photos with oranges , which inspired the nickname " Brother Orange . " The men exchanged messages for a few weeks and decided that Stopera should visit Li in his home city of Meizhou in southern China .

A month after first posting about the orange tree photos , Stopera flew to China . To his surprise , paparazzi were waiting for him at the Shantou airport along with Li . Wherever they went , people wanted selfies with them . Reporters wanted to interview Stopera . Companies wanted him to endorse their products . They were celebrities !

Stopera and Li spent a busy week visiting many places , traveling with translators and reporters in vehicles with pictures of both men's faces on them . They attended conferences , took mud baths , went for hikes and bike rides , sang karaoke , and met a famous soccer player ? all while posing for photos . In the process , they found they truly enjoyed each other's company despite not knowing each other's languages .

Stopera learned that Li's cousin had bought the phone for him at a second - hand shop without knowing it was a stolen good . He also learned that when Stopera had closed his account , the phone stopped working . Li put it away and forgot about it . Then Stopera's post went viral , and the men " met " online .

When they returned to Meizhou , the men felt their last days together become tinged with sadness , knowing that they would have to say goodbye soon . Happily , on Stopera's last day in Meizhou , Li spontaneously bought a ticket to accompany him to Beijing . They didn't have to say goodbye yet ! But two days later , the heaviness settled back on them . Many tears fell as Stopera boarded the plane , Li waving to him until they both vanished from each other's view .

Despite the heart - wrenching goodbye , Stopera was happy to have a new friend , and he was certain he would see Li again .
