ABSTRACT: The 7.20 Zhengzhou rainstorm was a serious rainstorm disaster event that
caused severe flooding and significant damage to infrastructure, homes, and
vehicles, and issues such as the event itself and the emergency response of
related departments have triggered continuous and extensive discussions. In
this study, we collected live videos from the incident period of Bilibili, and
analyzed the video data using text analysis and social network analysis to
explore the reflections, concerns and needs of people in the situation of major
natural disasters. In recent years, various natural disasters have occurred
frequently, and recreating the scenes and analyzing people’s demands from the
perspective of self-media is of practical significance to remind people of the
lessons learned and improve urban planning strategies.
