Hollywood Hunter

United States, New York.

In an ordinary apartment in the Soho district of Midtown Manhattan.

Jack Henderson and Daniela Hawley are an ordinary young couple in this metropolis.

Thursday night.

After taking a bath and putting on a facial mask, Daniela came to the bedroom in her pajamas. Seeing her boyfriend playing the recently popular "Counter-Strike OL" game in front of the computer, she deliberately took off her pajamas and posed to show her boyfriend A gorgeous body wrapped in a set of black Victoria's Secret lace lingerie.

After a while, seeing her boyfriend still staring at the computer screen and turning a blind eye to her, Daniela finally rushed over and squeezed into Jack's arms, interrupting his struggle.

Jack is a very good-tempered person, but he hugged his girlfriend's thin waist helplessly, watched his headshot on the computer screen, and coaxed him softly: "Baby, I will kill 1,000 immediately, and I can get the achievement. How about letting me play for another half an hour?"

Daniela didn't care about this, she grabbed the mouse and said, "Even if you get 10,000 kills, you will be shot in the head on the real battlefield. By the way, I made an appointment with Kate and the others today to watch Titans tomorrow night." "Nick", pay attention to the time and don't be late again."

Jack is obviously not interested: "I heard it's a terrible movie, why don't you wait to see "The Flash 2" next week?"

"Because Kate likes Leon very much, and, where did you hear it was bad? The media gave it a very high evaluation when it was premiered in Venice. And yesterday's Los Angeles premiere, word-of-mouth ban was lifted today, look... "Danila said, and opened the film and television section of Ygritte's portal, which showed the comprehensive media score of "Titanic" as high as 8.9, and then said to her boyfriend: "What's more, it is said that this movie spent a lot of money. 200 million US dollars, I am also curious about where so much money was spent, let’s go and see together.”

Jack had no choice but to nod: "Okay."

Having said that, Daniela has already closed the theme page of "Titanic" and turned to the YouTube website, intending to watch a few videos.

The beauty blogger I often watch hasn’t been updated today. Daniela glanced at the homepage and accidentally noticed a video with Chinese subtitles. She clicked in curiously and muttered, “What is this?”

Entering the video page, there were some more English annotations, and Daniela read it out: "In the winter of leisure, make some snacks."

While speaking, the video has already started playing.

A couple who were not very interested at first were instantly attracted by the misty scenery of Guilin like a fairyland. Jack, who was hugging his girlfriend, couldn't help but sigh: "It's so beautiful."

Daniela nodded and asked her boyfriend, "Is this China?"

"Obviously," Jack pointed to the unknown blogger's name "Lin Youran" at the bottom of the video, but he knew it was in Chinese characters: "Look, also, the scenery just now is obviously different from those small towns in Europe."

The two of them were talking, and the camera had already cut to a quaint farmyard.

Daniela operated the mouse, maximized the playback interface, and adjusted the sound, and the pure natural sound of birdsong came immediately.

In a refreshing atmosphere, a peasant girl with a clear face and plain clothes is carrying a basket on her back, leaving the yard with a little yellow dog jumping happily around her feet, crossing the mountain path, crossing the gurgling clear stream, collecting Various wild fruits.

Back in the small courtyard, various ingredients have been collected on the wooden table under the eaves.

There is also a raccoon cat, lazily shrinking itself into a ball, occupying a bamboo basket on the table by itself, and is sleeping soundly. When it senses that the mistress is returning, it only moves its nimble little ears.

There is no soundtrack at all, and there is no interpretation of human voices. In this purely natural atmosphere of birds singing and dogs barking, the girls began to make a variety of traditional Chinese snacks, such as candied haws, mung bean cakes, ginger slices, and fried chestnuts...

The video is only 10 minutes long, but the day in the small courtyard is gone in a blink of an eye.

In the evening, the raw materials on the wooden table under the eaves have become a few neat boxes of snacks. The last picture shows the girl sitting on the recliner next to the wooden table, enjoying a plate of ginger candy, lying on her lap A lazy raccoon cat, a little yellow dog sticking out its tongue at its feet, green hills next to the small courtyard, the setting sun is setting, it is cozy and warm.

When the picture darkened, the couple embracing each other came back to their senses.

Daniela spoke first, and said: "I really want to live this kind of life. I'm tired of working at Bloomberg. Even ordinary employees like us are forced to find ways to compete with Alia. I only get 35,000. It’s just an annual salary in U.S. dollars.”

Jack was still good-tempered, and said with a smile: "If you don't like it, you can change jobs. I may get a promotion after the New Year. It doesn't matter if you don't work for a while."

Upon hearing this, Daniela turned around and kissed her boyfriend, and said, "Jack, you're so kind, but I still won't resign. I'll wait until the day Bloomberg closes down before leaving. Changing jobs will be troublesome."

Jack nodded with a gentle smile, and said, "Actually, don't you think this is obviously a posing?"

"So what, such a beautiful place, even if I'm followed by the camera all the time, I'd be happy," Daniela said, suddenly regaining her spirits: "Jack, why don't we take the time to travel to China, you this year Isn't it true that I haven't taken a vacation yet, and I'll keep my vacation, how about the New Year?"

"Going to China seems to be very troublesome, and there is no need for a visa there."

"Short-term travel visas shouldn't be too difficult. I'll take the time to find out," Daniela said, seeing her boyfriend nodding, and looking at the computer screen again: "Just go here, by the way, where is this?"

"I do not know."

Daniela sat up a little bit, dragged down the mouse to the comment area, and glanced at the introduction of the video. This video was released on Tuesday night. In about two days, the total number of views has reached 490,000, and there are tens of thousands of comments.

Didn't expect it to be so popular.

However, thinking about it again, it was expected, the two of them were immersed in it just now.

The most popular comment made Daniela feel the same. A netizen from London said: "I don't know why I finished watching this video, and I watched it three times. Anyway, I like it very much."

This message has more than 3400 likes, obviously many people think so.

In the busy fast-paced life, suddenly seeing such a leisurely and comfortable video will make you feel much better.

Daniela casually clicked a like, then remembered, moved the mouse up, and pressed the subscribe button. This blogger is still worth collecting.

Then I pulled down the comments, and quickly found a message where someone asked where the video was shot. The video blogger named "Lin Youran" personally responded, saying that the video was shot in Guilin, Guangxi, China. Everyone is welcome to come and play.

This reply also attracted a series of comments and likes.

Daniela didn’t know where Guilin, Guangxi was. Even though the blogger wrote down the address in both Chinese and English, she still didn’t understand. This did not prevent her from copying the address in a notepad file on the computer.

After doing this, after thinking about it for a while, Daniela also wrote a message of her own: "A salaryman from New York, I really envy bloggers such a peaceful life, and look forward to traveling to China."

Post the comment, and give yourself a thumbs up by the way.

After watching his girlfriend finish commenting, Jack pointed to the similar recommendation on the side of the video: "What else, watch another one?"

Daniela glanced at it, and the titles next to it were all in Chinese. The first two were videos of the same 'Lin Youran'. However, after a little hesitation, Daniela chose another blogger's video, and the page switched. The title is 'Build a Boat'.

Click to enter.

This blogger's name is four words: Jiangnan Time.

Daniela and Daniela didn't know each other, but they just thought it was interesting that the blogger's name was clearly marked in red in the lower right corner of the video.

It is very different from the mountain residence in Guilin where Lin Youran lives, but this time he came to a quaint water town.

The protagonist is a graceful young girl, wearing a beautiful cheongsam printed and dyed in the blue and white porcelain style, and gathers a group of craftsmen with vicissitudes of life but clean clothes to discuss the making of an awning boat that can shuttle in the stream in front of the door.

Compared with the video where Lin Youran didn't say a word just now, this time there are some more English narrations.

Pretty standard American accent.

However, it is still mainly in Chinese, and the English narration is only the occasional kind of eye-catching. As for the conversation of the characters in the video, even if you don’t understand it, you can easily guess it based on the narration and the actions of the characters, without affecting the viewing experience at all.

Jack, who was obsessed with handcrafts when he was a teenager, was quickly attracted by the video, while Daniela noticed the cheongsam on the girl in the video, and the more she watched it, the more she liked it. She has a very good figure, and she should be very beautiful in this traditional Chinese dress, but I don't know where to buy it.

Maybe I can take my boyfriend to visit Chinatown on the weekend.

The video is also not long, 12 minutes, a brand new awning boat was successfully completed.

Then get into the water.

The old boatman is standing at the stern and paddling, and the graceful woman in cheongsam is sitting on the bow, holding a flute in her hand. The song whose name is unknown seems to be soaked in the time of the year before the town, and is played in the camera. The swaying black awning boat went away together.

When the video was over, seeing his girlfriend turn around immediately, Jack immediately said, "I still don't know where it is, but this time I want to see it too."

Daniela laughed, and suddenly seemed to find something, and said to her boyfriend: "This is not a Chinese tourism promotional video, is it?"

"Who knows, anyway, it's really good."

As Jack said, he reached out and pressed his girlfriend's little hand to cover the mouse. He didn't forget to click subscribe after being reminded by Daniela, and then he selected another blogger with a Chinese name.

This time it was a small island in the middle of a very large lake.

The same young woman, but with a different style, personally drove a fishing boat to fish in the lake, and then skillfully made a dish named "Squirrel Mandarin Fish" that made the couple in front of the computer a little confused.

I don't understand why it is called squirrel mandarin fish.

Fortunately, in the video, the woman didn't serve food with such a cute little thing as a 'squirrel', otherwise Jack and Daniela would definitely report it.

Cruel!

In any case, the last dish served on a white porcelain plate can feel delicious across the screen.

Gluttonous!

It seems that I really want to go to Chinatown on the weekend.

Cheongsam, squirrel mandarin fish.

There are also candied haws and ginger slices in the first video just now.

As for the awning boat, this one is too big, so we can only forget it.

In addition, we also need to inquire about traveling to China.

Daniela simply pulled over the keyboard and typed, listing a memo.

After the third video, the two became more and more interested, and once again selected in the recommendation column next to it, Jack found the two Chinese characters for "Kung Fu" that he happened to know, and pointed to it. Daniela wanted to watch another Chinese video. However, she is also interested in Chinese Kung Fu, so she obeyed her boyfriend once.

And then there's the wonder.

A person's hands can be practiced to the point where they can scratch deep marks on a brick wall. Are you sure it's not a special effect?

A wooden stick thicker than Daniela's calf was hit on the person. Daniela screamed and covered her eyes and dared not look. But the person was fine, and the wooden stick broke in two. Is this true?

The childish five-year-old boy easily smashed walnuts with his bare hands. Doesn't his hand hurt?

Some people can actually climb a four or five meter high wall with bare hands. Isn't the light work in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" all nonsense?

so many

This column called "Visiting Chinese Kung Fu" released three videos in total, each about 10 minutes long, and the young Western couples sitting in front of the computer watched them all in one go.

A total of 30 minutes, not only a series of kung fu unique skills that can only be seen in movies, but also a gray-haired but hale and hearty Chinese old man discussed and shared various principles and implications of Chinese kung fu with the host.

It turns out that real kung fu is very 'ugly'. According to the old man, it is a technique for killing people, not for people to watch, and many of the kung fu that appear in movies are beautiful moves specially practiced by actors. Pretty, but impractical.

It turns out that there really are such things as internal strength, luck, and so on. Generally speaking, it is the method of accumulating strength and exerting strength formed through years of repeated practice to release the potential of the human body to the greatest extent.

It turns out that a true martial artist needs to have integrity, and one must be very cautious when teaching martial arts to younger generations, depending on one's moral character.

The old man also brought out a younger generation to testify that a strong man over 1.8 meters tall is rare in the village who knows kung fu, because the man was too impulsive and liked to fight when he was young, and the elders unanimously decided not to let him learn kung fu. Kung fu, I worry that a man with too good aptitude will easily die if he learns kung fu again.

After watching three videos about Chinese Kung Fu, the couple was no longer satisfied with just sharing the fun together. Daniela simply picked up her mobile phone and called her friend, recommending it wholeheartedly.

then continue.

It was already late at night when Jack and Daniela recovered from a series of China-related videos that popped up out of nowhere. Before falling asleep, the two decided to start planning their trip to China as soon as possible, and they could bring friends along the way.

at the same time.

With Simon personally explaining the large-scale official YouTube recommendation, countless users have noticed such a batch of interesting videos from China wherever the YouTube website covers.

Some people have seen the landscapes of mountains and rivers all over China and yearned for them.

Some people learned about the real Chinese Kung Fu and their eyes were wide open.

Some housewives tried to cook Chinese food following the video.

There are also Chinese elderly who have been away from home for a long time, and they burst into tears when they accidentally saw the traditional paper-cutting of window grilles in their hometown on their grandson's computer.

With the elaborate production of Jin Shu and the official recommendation personally intervened by Simon, this Chinese style quickly spread in the Western world.
