The article notes: "In October, Trial & Error decided to test their offline success by holding two live shows at the 3,600-seat Star Halls venue to mark their first anniversary. Tickets sold out in just four days. Sales were done Dutch auction style, with prices set at HK$10,000 on the first day, HK$5,000 the next day, HK$2,000 the day after, with the promise of being just HK$10 on Day 24. Day 1 saw 13 tickets sold for HK$10,000 before four went for HK$5,000 the next day. All were sold by Day 4, when the ticket price was $800."
The article notes: "YouTube頻道《試當真Trial & Error》去年舉行兩場Live騷,以「減價拍賣」方式售票杜絕黃牛黨。開賣第一天已成功售出13張價值一萬元的門票,穩袋6位數字。香港中學文憑考試(DSE)經濟科昨日(3日)開考,卷一共有40條選擇題,其中一條以此Live騷門票價格功能為試題,再次引起網民熱論,"
From Google Translate: "The YouTube channel "Trial & Error" held two live shows last year, and sold tickets through "reduction auctions" to prevent scalpers. On the first day of sales, 13 tickets worth HK$10,000 have been successfully sold, with a stable bag of 6 figures. The Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination (DSE) Economics exam started yesterday (3rd).

QPQ: Done. |
Overall: ALT4, ALT5, ALT6, ALT7, and ALT8 are approved. An even better hook might be to modify ALT2 with the clarification "appeared on a university entrance exam" instead of "was a university entrance exam question" (I think mentioning the prices makes the hook more interesting). Just one sourcing issue that needs to be clarified but otherwise looks good. — Mx. Granger ( talk · contribs) 14:34, 5 April 2023 (UTC)

From Google Translate: "YouTube is a platform that people spend a lot of time browsing on the Internet, and YouTube has reached more than 5.5 million local users aged 18 or above in Hong Kong. Which channels and videos are the most popular this year? Let's talk about the top ten hottest creators of the year first, which was won by Trial & Error, which launched on 26 October 2020. Within one year, the channel released 210 videos and has 353K subscribers. "Don't tell me that she has a boyfriend", "Traffic jam on Tsun Yip Street", and "Channel needs girls" all received more than 1M hits, and they became so popular that they went to the Kowloon Bay International Trade & Exhibition Centre and held "Trial & Error's first anniversary show: the in-person version"."
