Remote event not firing for some reason?

So I was making my own chat and bubble chat system and I tried to use remote event to fire when the player talks. However, the remote event did not fire and it didn't show anything on the server and client. I did try to search on how to fix it but none of these answers seemed to work for me. Feel free to ask any questions.

ServerScriptService script:

view source
01game.ReplicatedFirst.ChatMessage.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(p, msg)
02    local ChatGUI = p.Character:WaitForChild("BubbleChatUI")
03    spawn(function()
04        while wait(1) do
05            Timer = Timer - 1
06            if Timer < 0  then
07                Timer = 0
08                ChatGUI.Enabled = false
09            end
10        end
11    end)
12    print("Chat message detected.")
13    msg = game:GetService("Chat"):FilterStringForBroadcast(msg, p)
14    ChatGUI.Enabled = true
15    local val = Instance.new("StringValue", workspace.chatMessages)
16    val.Name = p.Name
17    val.Value = msg
18    ChatGUI.MessageLabel.TextLabel.Text = msg
19    Timer = 4
20end)

TextBox localscript:

view source
1script.Parent.FocusLost:Connect(function(EnterPressed)
2    if EnterPressed then
3        game.ReplicatedFirst:WaitForChild("Events").ChatMessage:FireServer(script.Parent.Text)
4        script.Parent.Text = ""
5    end
6end)

Don't use ReplicatedFirst, put your remote event in ReplicatedStorage, and switch your code to define ReplicatedStorage instead of ReplicatedFirst and it will work, this is because ReplicatedStorage is used to communicate between client and server since it's on both
