After listening to He Yinghong's explanation, Lin Xiangyu's brain began to think rapidly.
He has seen all the types of videos that He Yinghong mentioned. Too many foreigners have made money in the East by using the short video platform, and the content they produce is generally meaningless.
Most of the videos are basically focused on first-hand cultural and food identification, or various shocks, such as the beautiful scenery and the speed of development of the East Country.
In short, it's all about praising, to put it bluntly, it's just flattery. After turning off the video, no one knows what others are thinking.
It's just a persona created to make money, but some people are willing to provide traffic to this group of people.
"Since others can make this money, why can't I?"
"Which foreigner can speak Mandarin as well as I do?"
"Which foreigner can understand the East Country better than me?"
Lin Xiangyu was extremely excited at this moment because he had seen a perfect way to make money.
It is not difficult for him to shoot this kind of video. He can shoot almost any subject that foreigners shoot.
Especially in Country H, there is a natural advantage. He can film to belittle Country H food and praise Country East food.
This is not against my will.
Besides, even if it's against my will, so what?
Making money is not shameful.
A smile gradually appeared on Lin Xiangyu's face. He was already imagining the days when he could make a fortune just by shooting short videos every day.
“Is this the benefit of being a foreigner?”
He Yinghong, who was standing by, saw that Lin Xiangyu hadn't spoken for a long time, and then he started laughing for no reason. She couldn't help but ask, "What are you laughing at? I want to be a short video blogger and make money by shooting short videos myself. What's so funny about that?"
"I'm sorry, I'm not laughing at you. I've been strictly trained. No matter how funny it is, I won't laugh unless I can't help it."
When Lin Xiangyu said this, he still couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.
"Do you agree or not? If you don't agree, I'll find someone else. Don't think I can't find other handsome guys from Country H besides you."
He Yinghong was a little unhappy because of Lin Xiangyu's repeated teasing.
Seeing this, Lin Xiangyu immediately put away his smile and stopped joking. He said very seriously: "I agree, but I want to maintain a long-term cooperative relationship with you."
"Long-term partnership?"
He Yinghong was a little confused when she heard Lin Xiangyu say that. She didn't think as much as Lin Xiangyu did. She just wanted to shoot a video first to see the effect. She hadn't thought about what would happen next.
However, after hearing what Lin Xiangyu said, and considering that Lin Xiangyu had always shown a quick mind, she felt that they could cooperate, so she immediately asked, "How do we cooperate? Tell me."
"We'll use your account to shoot, but the content will change from shooting you to shooting me. I'll provide the shooting script, and you'll be my photographer. I may need you to appear in the camera occasionally. We'll split the money earned from the account in half. How about that?"
Lin Xiangyu outlined the cooperation model that he had in mind.
After hearing this, He Yinghong became a little hesitant. Now Lin Xiangyu wanted her to move behind the scenes, but deep down she still wanted to appear on camera and become an internet celebrity.
However, after a brief thought, she agreed. After all, she had been shooting for this account for a long time and it just wouldn't become popular.
If she becomes famous by filming Lin Xiangyu, then she can appear in Lin Xiangyu's video and create a small account of her own, and still attract fans.
There are countless examples of this. Many women are obviously not that pretty, but in other people’s drama accounts, they appear particularly beautiful and can attract many fans.
But once she left the original team and turned to be a beauty on her own, she became nothing.
In this age where people can put on makeup, beautify their faces, and even edit videos, there is no shortage of beauties on the Internet. Without some inner beauty, it will be difficult to carve out a niche for yourself unless you are incredibly beautiful.
He Yinghong thought about this and said, "I agree. Tell me what you plan to shoot today. I'll be your photographer."
Lin Xiangyu smiled and said, "Don't be so impatient. Let's find a printing shop to print a contract first, and then start working after signing the contract. Since we have decided to shoot, we must use the contract to constrain each other, so as not to give up after shooting one or two shots and not seeing any results."
"I didn't expect you to be so rigorous in doing things." He Yinghong began to become more and more interested in Lin Xiangyu.
Lin Xiangyu didn't answer, just smiled.
The two then found a printing shop nearby, and Lin Xiangyu modified the content of a template contract himself.
After the modification was completed, two copies were printed, signed by both parties, and their fingerprints were pressed.
After doing all this, the two walked out of the print shop and prepared to start shooting the first video.
"Handsome Lin, have you decided what to shoot?" He Yinghong asked.
After thinking for a while, Lin Xiangyu said, "Well, the title of our first video is: The disgusted look on my H country friend's face when he eats H country food after having eaten Chinese food."
"Fuck." He Yinghong was immediately excited after hearing this: "I've wanted to read it since I heard your title. I didn't expect you to be so good at it."
Lin Xiangyu smiled and said, "Well, if you are interested, then there is no problem. Let's just find a random H restaurant and order some kimchi or something. Dongguo people like to see this, and it can arouse their sense of pride."
The two found a nearby bibimbap restaurant and ordered some kimchi and a bibimbap.
While the store was preparing the food, Lin Xiangyu told He Yinghong, "When we start filming, don't just film. Chat with me like a friend. Treat me as a Chinese who just had a delicious Chinese meal. Got it?"
He Yinghong made an OK gesture to Lin Xiangyu: "Don't worry, I'm not stupid."
"Well, let's just chat as naturally as possible. The less traces of filming there are, the closer it will be to the audience, and the less sense of distance.
"When chatting, show a little excitement. Just imagine me as your best male friend and provide sufficient emotional value to the audience."
After Lin Xiangyu finished speaking, he looked at He Yinghong and asked, "You should understand what I'm saying, right?"
"I understand." He Yinghong nodded heavily at Lin Xiangyu. She had now begun to agree with everything Lin Xiangyu said without thinking.
Soon, the store owner brought out the stone pot bibimbap, and the two were ready to officially start filming.
