The TikTok short video platform, as the leader of the short video industry in Dragon Country, has an incredibly large user base, with millions of creators uploading their videos every day.
However, only a very small number of these videos manage to gain significant traffic.
And these videos that do gain high traffic all have one thing in common - they need to be eye-catching enough.
The two videos uploaded by Yang Lin happened to fit this criteria perfectly.
As a result, within half an hour of uploading, the videos had already gained millions of views, with likes skyrocketing and comments section exploding with activity.
"Whoa, is this real or fake? How can this chimpanzee smoke?"
"That posture, that expression, it's exactly like my dad who's been smoking for decades."
"Damn, it can even blow smoke rings. I can't even do that myself."
"The way it taps off the ash is the real essence here."
"Those two deep drags remind me of Brother Qian."
"Holy crap, it's even smoking Double Happiness cigarettes. As expected of a chimp from Ningnan."
"This has to be fake, right? Are we sure this isn't just a zoo employee in a costume?"
"It can even use a lighter. This must be a genius among chimps."
"Genius? It's a good thing we evolved earlier, otherwise we'd be the ones sitting in there smoking."
Just as everyone was shocked by this smoking chimpanzee, someone quickly dug up Yang Lin's follow-up video of a gibbon.
This video also went viral shortly after.
"I just saw a chimpanzee that could smoke, and now I'm seeing a gibbon drinking cola. Have the animals collectively evolved or something?"
"Looks like it's from the same zoo. What a strange coincidence."
"This gibbon can even twist off the bottle cap and burp after drinking. Who the hell taught it that?"
"Look at its expression, it seems to be really enjoying it. It must have drunk this stuff before."
"Lol, this gibbon looks a lot like my high school homeroom teacher."
"West Rainbow Zoo? Isn't that the crappy zoo in Ningnan? Since when did the animals there learn to do these things? How come we never noticed before?"
"Can any locals from Ningnan help us check it out? See if these animals are really that special."
"Yeah, I'm a bit suspicious that these two animals might be zoo employees in disguise. Can nearby friends help verify?"
"If someone goes, I can help reimburse the ticket cost. I just want to know if this chimpanzee really smokes."
"I'll provide a pack of cigarettes. I want to see the chimp smoke."
"I'll provide a bottle of cola. Can nearby friends bring it in?"
"Haha, I happen to be a local in Ningnan. I'll go check it out later and verify for you guys."
"The zoo's official account has ticket packages in their Shopee store. You guys can buy one and take a look."
.......
As the number of views on these two videos kept increasing, they soon topped the trending list.
By the time Yang Lin noticed, he had already sold over two thousand ticket packages from his Shopee store.
Looking at the still-growing sales figures, he was completely stunned.
He never imagined that casually posted videos could have such a strong marketing effect.
"We've hit the jackpot! Now the animals won't have to go hungry, and I can improve my life a bit too."
While marveling at this, Yang Lin quickly began preparing for the upcoming influx of visitors.
Although all two thousand visitors wouldn't come at once, even a small portion of them would be quite a pressure for him.
Just as he was busy preparing, some of the early birds who lived nearby had already driven to the zoo's entrance.
Among the first batch to arrive were a group of local micro-influencers carrying various recording equipment.
After discovering that Yang Lin's videos had gone viral, they immediately seized this opportunity.
However, when they arrived at the entrance of West Rainbow Zoo, they all frowned.
A heavily made-up young woman was the first to ask:
"Is this really a zoo? Why is it so run-down?"
"It's normal. This zoo has reportedly been operating for decades. Even my dad came here to see animals when he was little."
"Whatever, we're not really here to see animals anyway. Let's hurry in and film those two monkeys."
"What two monkeys? One's a chimpanzee and the other's a gibbon."
"Whatever, let's hurry. We can't let others steal the spotlight."
With that, they were about to enter the zoo.
At this moment, Yang Lin also walked up to the ticket window.
"Welcome to West Rainbow Zoo. Please show your verification code."
Hearing Yang Lin's voice, the group finally noticed that there was actually someone standing in the nearby booth.
They immediately showed their verification codes in order.
After the ticket verification was complete, just as the group was about to enter, Yang Lin's voice sounded again.
"I need to warn you, that chimpanzee occasionally throws things outside its cage. You'd better keep your distance."
"If you get hit due to personal reasons, our park is not responsible."
However, they paid no attention to Yang Lin's words.
"Throw things? What could it throw? Besides, how are we supposed to film if we stay far away?"
"Exactly, we need to get close later. By the way, did you guys bring cigarettes?"
"Yeah, we brought some."
.....
Seeing that they weren't heeding his advice, Yang Lin could only shake his head helplessly.
"They won't listen to warnings. Don't blame me when shit hits the fan later."
"Oh right, I need to quickly stock up on tissues to sell to them later. Umbrellas might be a good idea too."
While Yang Lin was making these mental calculations, the group of men and women with recording equipment had already arrived at the chimpanzee enclosure located at the outermost part of the park.
Upon seeing Li Wei sunbathing in the chimpanzee enclosure, these people's faces immediately lit up with excitement.
"It's him, it's him! He's bald, it's the chimpanzee from the internet!"
A male streamer exclaimed loudly.
The others also raised their cameras at this point, but just as they were about to start throwing cigarettes inside, a look of anger suddenly appeared on Li Wei's face in the cage.
His eyes were fixed intently on the male streamer who had just spoken.
Before the male streamer could react, Li Wei quickly grabbed a black lump from nearby.
Bang!
In the next second, witnessed by everyone present and the viewers in their respective livestreams, a sticky glob of ape feces landed squarely on the male streamer's face.
Some fragments even flew into his mouth.
In an instant, everyone at the scene was dumbfounded.
It wasn't until the man with a face full of feces started screaming in shock that everyone else reacted.
However, instead of immediately helping him clean his face, they raised their various devices and started filming frantically.
Meanwhile, the viewers in their respective livestreams seemed to have been injected with a stimulant.
u serious?" Chen Feng watched helplessly as his painstakingly trained disciple, fresh off a championship victory, publicly abandoned him. "You had your chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. Now, face the consequences of your choice!" Chen Feng possessed the "Master System," a treasure trove of supreme martial arts techniques, capable of molding ordinary individuals into peerless prodigies. "Legs like yours? A shame not to train in the Crippling Kick." "Ever heard of a palm strike that descends from the heavens?" "Auntie! I see extraordinary bone structure in you—a martial arts prodigy, one in ten thousand." The once-defiant senior disciple, now watching her juniors rise to fame one after another, dominating the internet, was consumed by endless regret.
Explosive Plot Song Gua crossed over into another world, bringing along a whole crew of his doppelgangers—all of them mischief-makers. This was a world where everyone could choose a class. Song Gua became a "Bondweaver," capable of borrowing power, while his doppelgangers took on a wide variety of classes, covering just about everything. The number of doppelgangers grew day by day, each one a talented individual with a charming way of speaking. Under Song Gua's brilliant leadership, they would "greet" each other daily and engage in friendly "sparring," pulling off one major scheme after another on Earth. Sometimes they were bandits—stealing bosses, plundering mines, snatching resources. Sometimes they were saviors—descending like divine warriors to face world bosses threatening to massacre cities. Sometimes they even went undercover, infiltrating various major factions to stir up trouble from within, keeping their enemies constantly on edge. To prevent their doppelganger abilities from being exposed, Song Gua made them wear masks with mahjong tile patterns and don Taoist robes in various colors. "Remember, in front of outsiders, call me 'The Dice.'" "Got it! Boss!" "Not 'Boss'—it's 'The Dice.' Think about the vibe, pay attention to the vibe." "Yes! Boss!" "For crying out loud..." From then on, whenever they appeared, they would have their own theme song playing: ~Hey~ paying respects at the mountain stronghold at night~ whose arm is draped over whose shoulder~ gather your courage and follow along...
