Chapter 253 Sprouts
In recent years, new media short videos have emerged, and wheat field videos have set off a craze among young people;
Now the main user group of the platform is the young and middle-aged people in first- and second-tier cities, and it is gradually penetrating into third-, fourth- and fifth-tier cities;
Currently, the platform has over 100 million daily active users; however, it has not yet been extended to the rural market.
Most young people in rural areas have gone out to work, while the middle-aged and elderly people left behind are illiterate and few know how to use smartphones, let alone watch short videos;
Therefore, although there is a big blogger with millions of fans living in the village, the villagers in Qinghe Village do not know much about the field of short videos.
Wang Weidong's wife often saw Shen Qiuqiu taking photos and videos with her mobile phone before. She thought she was taking the photos for fun, but she didn't expect that she could post them online and be seen by more than three million people.
After returning home from work, Wang Weidong went to the fields again with his hoe.
Now is the busy time for farming. After finishing the work for Shen Qiuqiu's family, they still have to do their own farm work in the fields.
Wang Gannian went into the main room to take a drink of water, and was about to follow him to the ground, but was stopped by Li Cunju.
"It's time to catch up with the New Year, Xiaohua and the others just watched that video. You can show it and let me take a look."
Wang Gannian glanced at his mother helplessly, but still obediently took out his mobile phone, opened the Maitian Video APP, clicked on the homepage of [Shen Family Small Courtyard], and then put the mobile phone into her hand.
"Here, you can click on it to read it, and you can view the next one with just a swipe of your finger."
Although Li Cunju only has a primary school education, she still knows a few words and can barely understand them.
She casually clicked on a short video;
A burst of soothing soft music sounded, and a plump orange cat appeared on the screen, with a fluttering bird under its paws;
Then I heard a clear and sweet voice, "Little Orange, you are not allowed to catch birds."
The orange cat quickly retracted its claws, and the bird fluttered a few times and seemed to fly away...
Li Cunju read it with a puzzled look on her face, then slid her finger to continue swiping the next item.
Seeing that his mother was enjoying the movie, Wang Gannian didn't dare to urge her, so he simply sat down on the sofa and turned on the TV to watch.
After browsing for more than half an hour, Li Cunju couldn't help but ask Wang Gannian, "That's it? What's so good about it? I don't think it's as good as the TV."
"You don't like to watch it, but people in the city do." Wang Gannian sat up and pointed at a short video playing on the screen of his mobile phone, "This video of picking up eggs has 90,000 likes, which proves that At least 90,000 people have watched it."
Li Cunju stared at the screen of her phone for a long time, as if trying to decipher it.
She used her elbow to nudge Wang Gannian, who was watching TV, "Tell me, can Xiaohua and the others make money by shooting these things?"
Wang Gannian also knew little about wheat field videos. He thought for a while before replying: "I don't know much about it either. It should be possible, otherwise why would they film it every day?"
Li Cunju rolled her eyes and had an idea in her mind, "How about we take pictures too. I can cook, weed pigs, feed pigs, collect eggs, and work in the fields. I can do these things."
"this……"
Wang Gannian was silent for a while and then said: "Wouldn't this be good? Sister Xiaohua..."
Li Cunju rolled her eyes, "It's not her property. They can take pictures, but we can't? That doesn't make sense."
Worried that her son was too naive and unable to think clearly, Li Cunju added: "It's just like farming and raising livestock. Her family grows corn, and our family also grows corn; her family raises chickens, and our family also raises chickens; it doesn't affect anything. ;
They eat meat, so we can drink some soup too;
Do you think the reason why I am thinking about ways to make money is not for you!
If you hadn't been defrauded of 30,000 yuan, our family would be living as hard as we are now, and still be in debt."
Wang Gannian struggled for a long time, neither saying yes nor saying no.
"I don't quite understand this either. I'll ask Sister Xiaohua later."
But Li Cunju couldn't wait any longer, and urged: "We live next door, we can go there in a few steps. Why don't we turn around? You can go over and ask after dinner later."
Before Wang Gannian could think of how to speak, he excused himself and said, "Why are you so anxious? It will be the same if I ask tomorrow."
Li Cunju reached out and poked him on the forehead, "You are stupid. There will be a lot of people tomorrow. If everyone wants to take pictures together, how can we still drink soup together?"
"How could I, a smart person like you, give birth to a stupid son like you!" Li Cunju shook her head in disgust, picked up her backpack and was about to go out.
"I'll go up the mountain to collect bracken. You cook at home and remember to feed the pigs."
"Hey..." Wang Gannian sighed and went to the kitchen obediently.
After dinner, under Li Cunju's repeated urging, Wang Gannian shamelessly went to Shen Qiuqiu's house.
At this moment, Shen Qiuqiu’s family had just finished dinner;
A family of four was sitting under the grape trellis in the yard enjoying the cool air.
A few green shoots have sprouted from the vines;
Rain moistens new buds and everything grows. Spring is a busy season and the beginning of hope.
Grandpa Shen stared at the buds on the grapevine for a while and said, "In a while, we will start budding the grapes."
To bud is to remove excess buds from the vine;
Grapevines will grow a large number of buds in spring. If the excessive new buds are not removed in time, the newly grown branches and leaves will grow too densely, causing canopy closure, consuming unnecessary nutrients, and affecting flowering, fruiting and yield.
The passionflower cuttings have also begun to take root, and they will be ready to be transplanted to the field in a while;
Strawberry season is almost over, but there are still more things to be busy with.
Shen Qiuqiu thought for a while and asked Grandpa Shen, "Grandpa, what does Uncle Hongxi say about Fang Jianhua's house?"
"I went to his house to look for him in the morning. I said everything I needed to say and gave him a red envelope, but he didn't say anything." Grandpa Shen sighed, "I just came back from the field and I went to his house again. He
They said they couldn’t contact Fang Jianhua and asked us to wait.”
Nowadays, people never leave their mobile phones, so how can they not be contacted?
Shen Qiuqiu frowned slightly, feeling that Li Hongxi's attitude on this matter was a bit strange.
Just as I was lost in thought, Wang Gannian came.
Grandma Shen greeted with a smile: "We are here for the new year. Have you eaten? Come and sit."
"After eating, Grandma Shen, I came to talk to Sister Xiaohua about something." Wang Gannian smiled shyly and sat down on the stone pier given by Grandma Shen.
Shen Qiuqiu poured him a cup of herbal tea and asked curiously: "What do you want from me?"
After making a draft in his mind, Wang Gannian said, "My mother said she wanted to make short videos. You are more experienced in this, so she asked me to come over and ask."
"Auntie, this idea is quite keeping pace with the times." Shen Qiuqiu was slightly surprised.
Wang Gannian thought she was unwilling, so he quickly waved his hand and said, "She just said that casually, sister Xiaohua, if you don't agree, we won't shoot."
Shen Qiuqiu was amused by his logic, "You can take pictures if you want. I don't have anything to disagree with."
This kind of thing cannot be stopped, and there is no need;
Nowadays, short videos are becoming more and more popular. This is a huge cake. In the future, more and more people will join in and divide this cake.
Wang Gannian scratched the back of his head and asked cautiously: "Will it affect you?"
Shen Qiuqiu thought about it and joked: "As long as you don't expose our family's private affairs online and use our family as a gimmick to hype traffic, there will be no impact."
Wang Gannian waved his hand quickly, "Sister Xiaohua, don't worry, we are definitely not that kind of people."
Shen Qiuqiu nodded and said seriously: "There are all kinds of people on the Internet. If you want to be a self-media, you must be mentally prepared to deal with many unknown things, such as strangers' comments, pointing, and mentality. It must be good.
My original intention of making videos for self-media is to record life; although now it is more about making money, my original intention is still there, so now more and more people like my videos;
I also suggest that you mainly record your life, take some daily life photos, and slowly find your own positioning and characteristics; do not try to attract attention by sensationalizing, do not lose your bottom line for the sake of traffic, and wear a mask on the Internet. Not long-term;
Another point is that traffic itself is nothing, and short videos may not necessarily make a lot of money;
You should keep your mind at ease and just treat it as a small side job. It's best if you can make some money, but it's okay if you can't make any money. The main focus should be on real life, and you can't waste your fields just to make videos. , we still have to work hard and live a good life."
"I understand, thank you, Sister Xiaohua." Wang Channian nodded solemnly.
