Just these three shots have already maxed out the attention and anticipation.
Li Younan couldn’t help but admire: "As expected of my Brother Long... no, now I should call her Sister Long."
Although JK Long still didn’t know her gender had been uncovered, she seed to start gradually forgetting the "Brother Long" persona during communication, occasionally speaking in a feminine tone, and once realizing it, she’d frantically patch it up, and Li Younan of course continued to play dumb.
Continuing to watch the video, after the bloopers, it began to seriously explain what she had been doing during these days of disappearance.
Then, from a first-person perspective, she unfolded this experience chronologically.
Li Younan has a photography background; he instinctively uses photo-taking techniques when operating the cara, mainly in framing and lighting, making even his first-person videos appear quite textured.
The whole process, under JK Long’s editing, was full of ups and downs, also inserting many professional explanations on the Gongga Mountain loop trek and climbing, allowing people unfamiliar with the sport to understand what Li Younan was doing.
Seeing this, Li Younan felt sowhat moved.
He knew JK Long hadn’t understood the climbing sport before, aning she spent a lot of ti last night finding information and integrating it into the video elents.
After watching, Li Younan put down the phone—this was an incredibly high-quality video.
However, he didn’t imdiately publish it, because JK Long quickly sent a ssage: "By the way, Li Younan, you haven’t uploaded the video, right? Don’t release it yet, my brother said he wants to contact sponsors, this video should have a good spot for an ad."
Although Li Younan was sowhat reluctant—the video was so high-quality, inserting ads would reduce its fluidity—but no one would say no to money, and he now has a collaborative relationship with the Long siblings, he can’t have them doing unpaid work, so he agreed.
While he was waiting for Liu Yu’s reply, sothing unexpected happened...
Old Xu who had been constantly mocking him was confronted by soone.
...
While lying in the hospital, Ding Rui naturally searched for information about Li Younan at the first opportunity.
Because Li Younan had said during their chat that his video platform ID was his own na.
Yet unexpectedly, the first result wasn’t Li Younan’s video or his hopage, but rather a strear’s analysis, brazenly claiming Li Younan was faking it, nad "Old Xu."
The first video analyzing his fakery was a long-uploaded video of Li Younan shooting arrows.
This video, due to later traffic, actually sparked so interest.
And the second video was that old guy seriously analyzing that Li Younan surely wouldn’t dare to cross and trek truthfully, just did a show, disappeared for a few days to earn a wave of traffic.
This baseless nonsense actually had so many people liking and believing, making Ding Rui on the hospital bed grind his teeth in anger.
He also has a bit of a following on the short-video platform, because he doesn’t manage his account much, only a few thousand followers.
But he has many friends in the circle.
If Old Xu were harassing soone else, he’d be indifferent. However, he was discrediting Li Younan!
Who is Li Younan? Li Younan is his lifesaver! Without Li Younan, he couldn’t possibly see today’s sun!
People ought to have conscience, when his lifesaver is being slandered, how could he sit and do nothing?
Even putting that aside, he also t Li Younan during climbing Gongga Mountain.
If Li Younan were staging a show, then he saw a ghost?
Even from a fair and objective bystander’s point of view, he had to clear Li Younan’s na.
Anger rose as he watched that so-called Old Xu’s smug face, followers dumbly echoing nonsense, his mind went hot, and he started filming himself.
His first video was filled with foul language, and got flagged after upload.
After a while, he cald his expression and recorded a new segnt.
This ti, obviously more restrained, but the first sentence again fiercely attacked Old Xu.
At that mont he passionately vented, classic lines springing in his mind, he said: "That Old Xu always says in his videos ’playing with traffic for traffic will inevitably be bitten back by traffic,’ what a quote! I’ll send it back to him! Isn’t he always gaining traffic by debunking others? Well, responsibly I can say today—Old Xu, you’re in trouble! You’re discrediting my lifesaver! Without Li Younan, I might’ve just died on Gongga Mountain! We barely had signal on the mountain, only to co down and see his laughable bold claims!"
Then he restored in first-person the story of eting Li Younan at the foot of Gongga Mountain, continually encountering him during the climb, and how Li Younan saved his life at last.
In the end, he was entirely imrsed in his emotion, teary-eyed, moving others.
After finishing this video, Ding Rui uploaded it again, and this ti it got through.
In fact, video platform officials greatly encourage videos with controversial nature, as controversy ans traffic, engagent, even actively boosting such provocative videos.
He defiantly put a thousand yuan on Dou Plus, ready to invest more if needed.
Not satisfied, Ding Rui ssaged Zhao Liang and Gao Yonghui, urging them to produce videos too.
These buddies naturally obliged.
To broaden the impact, they kept contacting others in the circle.
They have decent connections in the community.
Indeed, they know so influential strears, though this niche limits fan count, even top climbing strears have only tens of thousands.
But numbers bring strength.
Among them, Gao Yonghui even addressed the accusation from Xu Yusheng regarding Li Younan’s archery video being faked.
He had a sports cara at the ti, for docunting the climbing journey.
And happened to capture Li Younan’s shot blowing a rock apart.
Upon releasing this video, views and likes, comnts surged almost instantly.
Through Ding Rui’s relentless efforts, dozens of strears with substantial followers helped by liking, forwarding, or speaking for him. Virtually overnight, online opinion of Li Younan reversed.
At this ti, Li Younan was unaware of it all, after assuring family of his safety, he lay down to continue sleeping.
Climbing is quite energy-draining.
Coincidentally, while he was sleeping, in so city, Xu Yusheng was also sleeping in a rental apartnt.
But Xu Yusheng woke earlier than Li Younan.
He woke up, as usual, checking platform information first.
Once opened the platform’s ssages, it felt like the sky had fallen.
