10月17日，法國多地爆發大規模抗議騷亂，巴黎、馬賽、南特等城市出現商店被搶、車輛被焚、公共設施遭破壞等暴力場面。據巴黎警察局通報，共有855人被拘留，創下此次抗議活動的紀錄。抗議起因包括生活成本上漲、燃油價格飆升、公共服務與教育投入不足等社會問題。
在這場混亂中，一段影片在社交媒體上迅速走紅。影片顯示，尼斯市讓·梅德桑大道上一家Micromania遊戲店的店長皮埃爾，獨自衝出去驅趕試圖搶劫店鋪的暴徒。然而當他轉身準備進店時，一名蒙面人從背後一腳將他踹倒在地。皮埃爾爬起來後，撥開額前頭髮、扶正眼鏡，隨後以堅定的姿態站在店門口——而此刻，鏡頭恰好將他框在櫥窗上張貼的龍珠孫悟空巨幅海報正下方。
「西方最後的御宅族堡壘」——網友在社交平台上如此評論這條影片。畫面中皮埃爾的剪影與孫悟空完美重合，梗圖瞬間爆發。
🇫🇷🔥 A MOB CAME FOR HIS ANIME SHOP. ONE MAN REFUSED TO BACK DOWN. In France, a man reportedly stood his ground as a group attacked his anime store. While others might have run, he fought to defend his business, his livelihood, and everything he had worked to build. 🇯🇵 Imagine pouring your heart, money, and years of hard work into your dream, only to watch a mob try to tear it apart. When someone comes for everything you』ve built, do you run or stand your ground? 👀 https://twitter.com/KaptanHindustan/status/2111862199476232557
更暖心的是後續發展。遊戲社區迅速行動，發起「#遊戲圈互助」運動，一名法國主播發起眾籌，為皮埃爾籌集資金、物資以重建店鋪。截至目前，眾籌已籌集2618歐元。
