I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

How can one survive on 1800 yuan?

Ye Xian pondered for a long time but couldn't come up with a good solution.

The convenience store has been closed for a long time. Many of the goods were purchased when Ye Xian's father was still alive, and many of them are probably expired.

If you spend it frugally, this 1800 yuan can last for a month or two, but what about after that?

Open source and reduce expenditure.

Making money is the key!

However, Ye Xian has one advantage!

Ye Xian in this world is extremely handsome!

With a handsome and gentle face, fair and smooth skin, a tall and slender figure, a natural clothes hanger, long and slender fingers, and excellent maintenance, he exudes a unique refined temperament from his vocal training since childhood.

When Ye Xian first saw his face in the mirror, he was almost stunned by his own handsomeness.

No wonder Ye Xian from Blue Star didn't attend classes properly for seven or eight months, yet he was still remembered by countless senior and junior students.

With such great looks, it's such a waste not to sell... or appear on camera!

If you don't appear on screen in a short video, the conversion rate won't be high.

Kuaiyin has many ways to monetize, such as the mid-length video program, the musician program, and the national task program, but these all have high requirements for the content and shooting level of short videos, or have fixed time periods, and have certain thresholds.

Lan Xingye Xian firmly believed that the filming techniques he learned from the club were excellent. He thought that he didn't need to appear on camera himself; he only needed to film the wine's glaze, color, and transparency. He could easily sell products through short videos, but he never appeared on camera himself to sell products in a live stream.

However, these things don't work in fast music.

Unless you're incredibly creative, like that account that takes amazing photos of various products in a simple dorm room, that girl and her friends are truly amazing.

If you want to sell goods, how can you not sell your looks... or your talent?

If Ye Xian from Lanxing had started his own live-streaming sales, he probably would have outsold media companies and so-called celebrity predecessors.

Kuaiyin is decentralized.

Celebrities aren't necessarily able to monetize their fame, and media companies aren't necessarily professional.

To become famous quickly on Kuaishou, you either need to be cool and beautiful, or novel and unique!

Don't you see that all the successful people on Kuaishou are beautiful women and handsome men?

Regardless of how high the beauty filter is turned up, at least most of the fans are fans of their looks.

There are accounts that become famous by selling ugliness, but not many, so I won't argue about it.

One's values ​​follow one's physical appearance.

Therefore, being handsome is Ye Xian's advantage!

But being handsome isn't everything!

To stand out on Kuaishou, you need to combine being cool with something else to create a perfect embellishment or a contrasting and unexpected effect.

Limited conditions, limited funds, and limited time.

Ye Xian decisively chose to take the simple, old path.

Ye Xian from another world had, after all, worked in live streaming operations for ten years, and his skills in hairdressing, styling, and even shooting, editing, and promoting videos were still as good as ever.

Seven o'clock in the morning.

Ye Tony Xian set up the shooting tripod and his Orange phone, and began preparing to shoot.

The first step to creating a successful Kuaiyin (TikTok) account is to choose a niche, establish a persona, find like-minded individuals, identify benchmarks, and generate traffic.

If you don't have the funds, then start documenting your life.

Combine life, content, and short videos.

Making a living while earning money is not shameful.

……

"Hello everyone, I'm Ye Xian, a man on the verge of bankruptcy!"

"Besides owning a million-yuan bottle of liquor, I only have 1800 yuan left! I can't live on alcohol!"

"Today is Lunar New Year's Eve, so we can't eat anything too fancy. Let's just make something simple, after all, it's the New Year!"

I opened the refrigerator; there weren't many ingredients inside: a few tomatoes, a few eggs, a pack of ham sausages, a bottle of Lao Gan Ma chili sauce, and a bunch of cilantro...

In addition, there are some instant noodles at home.

Ye Xian plans to focus on authenticity, allowing everyone to see his real life, and then subtly connect the short video content with his products in order to achieve the goal of selling goods.

First-person perspective short videos focusing on lifestyle and food still have a significant market.

Of course, this is just the basics.

The golden 357 seconds of a short video, the first 3 seconds are crucial, just like the golden three chapters of a novel.

To increase the completion rate, you must grab people's attention. Some people like to use highlights at the beginning to create an hook before playing the main content. This will increase the completion rate, but it can easily backfire and cause visual fatigue.

Ye Xian chose a different approach from them.

Use language hammer.

Tell others who I am.

He wanted everyone to remember him as a man who owned a million-dollar bottle of liquor but was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Use a visual hammer.

There are different opinions on whether there are more or less visual hammers in a short video, and Ye Xian chose fewer.

Less is more.

Ye Xian found his best white shirt and put it on.

This will be my battle uniform from now on; I'll be wearing a white shirt for all my short videos.

What would a handsome man like him wear to attract attention?

Without a doubt, it's a white shirt!

A man's true luxury!

Men in white shirts are the sexiest!

Not to mention, Ye Xian himself is breathtakingly handsome.

With a white shirt, leaving one or two buttons undone at the collar is an absolute killer move, regardless of gender.

More than just walking hormones.

Of course, a good appearance is the first step.

……

New Year's Eve is an excellent time.

Playing the victim is shameful; Ye Xian plays the truth.

"Today I only have some eggs, instant noodles, and tomatoes left in my fridge, so I'll make you a stir-fried instant noodle dish that's a common item at barbecue stalls!"

Bring water to a boil, add instant noodles, and cook until soft. Then remove the noodles and rinse them with cold water.

Pour two beaten eggs into a pan, scramble them until cooked, and set aside.

Cut the ham sausage into pieces and stir-fry until the surface is slightly browned.

Sauté diced tomatoes until they release their juices, then add cooked instant noodles, eggs, and ham to the pot. Next, add the seasoning packet that comes with the instant noodles, a spoonful of Lao Gan Ma chili sauce, stir-fry until flavorful, and finally sprinkle with a handful of cilantro.

A perfect plate of cilantro stir-fried instant noodles is ready.

"At the barbecue stall, this bowl of noodles costs at least 18 yuan!"

Making noodles is easy, but shooting short videos is difficult.

This bowl of noodles is actually quite ordinary; anyone with a bit of cooking skill can make it look decent.

The challenge is to film in a way that makes people's mouths water.

For food-related short videos, the most crucial element is lighting, not your cooking skills.

Natural light is best.

If there's not enough natural light, then use as many fill lights as possible.

Taking these photos by yourself is very tiring and even tedious, because you have to constantly find the right angles to make the food look appealing.

If the shot isn't good, we have to do it again.

In just a few minutes, the noodles are made and the short video is filmed. If you're not an expert, you'd probably have to do it two, three, four, five, or six times, or pretend that it tastes delicious.

What's even more challenging is how to provide viewers with emotional value.

Emotional value outweighs everything else.

If an account cannot generate emotional value, it lacks the ability to monetize and convert that value.

An account that cannot be monetized is just an account for self-indulgence.

"Brothers, the New Year's Eve dinner is ready, let's eat!"

Filming only the production process and condensing it to 10-15 seconds already meets the standard of a good short video, but it's difficult for such a video to stand out.

Ye Xian wanted more.

Facing the lens of the orange camera, Ye Xian filmed himself eating the entire plate of fried instant noodles, and then let out a full burp.

"Brothers, having a good meal before going bankrupt feels so good!"

After the short video ended, Ye Xian wiped his mouth, then searched through some previously filmed footage and quickly edited it using silhouettes.

"We still need to add some outdoor scenes, let's do it tonight."

A good short video is 30% shooting and 70% editing.

Whether the effect is good or not depends entirely on the skill of Teacher Ye Tony Xian.

The entire video is 5 minutes long, which is considered a medium-length video. Ye Xian searched for suitable background music, and after searching for a while, Ye Xian frowned.

"The music in this world is completely different from the music in my other world!"

Ye Xian hadn't paid much attention before, but now he realized that the history of Earth was quite different from that of the other world. It could be said that it had been completely different since the Tang Dynasty.

On this blue planet, the Tang Dynasty did not experience the An Lushan Rebellion. Successive emperors expanded the territory, occupying half of the planet, while the other half was occupied by an eagle nation. The Tang and eagle nations fought for supremacy for nearly a thousand years, with neither able to defeat the other. In recent years, they have lived in peace, with only some conflicts occurring in certain areas.

Therefore, the culture Ye Xian was familiar with was very different from the culture of this world after the Three Hundred Tang Poems. In fact, the famous works, songs and movies that were well-known in the other world could not be found in this world at all.

"I'm not used to this kind of music!"

The technology and cultural development of this world are similar to those of the other world, but Ye Xian listened to dozens of popular songs on the charts and still couldn't find a music style that he was familiar with and liked.

It's so unfamiliar.

It's not that the music on Earth is bad, but Ye Xian, who is used to music from other worlds, has an instinctive aversion to the music of this world.

"If I don't like it, I won't settle for it!"

……

Newman microphones, Apollo sound cards, Nifl preamps, LA2A, control consoles, Canon monitors, recording displays, teleprompters, music production software, sound libraries, recording software, mixing plugins, instrument microphones, drum microphones, ear microphones...

Ye Xian looked at his personal recording studio at home and clicked his tongue in admiration.

Although it's an entry-level set, this whole set, plus instruments like the guzheng, flute, pipa, erhu, piano, guitar, drum kit, bass, saxophone, etc., would probably cost at least two or three hundred thousand yuan.

For an average family, the cost is considerable.

It seems that Ye Xian's mother from Lanxing also enjoys recording songs in her spare time, after all, she is a professional music teacher.

However, Ye Xian felt that this recording studio was more of a gift from his mother, who was perhaps waiting for him to graduate so that he could officially enter the music industry.

After all, Ye Xian from Lanxing grew up playing in this recording studio.

"I'm actually a little envious of you!"

Relying on his memory, Ye Xian skillfully turned on the power to each machine, tested the equipment, and nodded in satisfaction.

Ye Xian is a perfectionist. He hasn't decided what he will do in this life yet, but he needs to solve his own basic needs first.

This wine is worth a million dollars, so you'll have to show some real skill!

Start from scratch, starting with what you do best.

First, create good short videos to sell your products.

With Ye Xian's musical expertise from Earth, combined with Ye Xian's musical resources and management skills from another world, it's bound to bring a unique wave... a surge of excitement to Earth.

"New Year's Eve is a special occasion that cannot be missed!"

"Time is limited, let's get started!"
