3 . In China, if you want to know which social app young people use a lot now, you had better not miss “short videos”. Some users use apps like Tik Tok (抖音) and Kuaishou because they think it is fun to share short videos about their lives, while others have different purposes as well.
A 12-year-old user named Elsa has up to 2.7 million supporters on Tik Tok. The girl has shared videos about her dancing studies since last July. One of the videos won her about one million fans. “I feel really happy to go on sharing happiness with other people by short videos,”said Elsa. As some videos are about the latest news, a group of users depend on them to get information. To some other users, they have a different purpose. “Because I can’t spend many hours watching a long video and I am not a patient person. I don’t like waiting for a programme to end,” said Wang Zhihao.
However, some young Chinese feel bored with some short videos. “Killing time is the main reason for me to watch the videos. But many are almost the same, so I think it is a waste of time,” said Wen Nan, another college student. Recently, something else has happened. Some videos are telling people to buy things. Some users buy them after watching, but they should think twice. If they don’t think carefully, they may regret (后悔) soon. Some short videos even sell fake (假) products, but these sellers won’t let you give them back, or deal with your trouble.

5 . WeChat is a Chinese social media mobile application (应用软件) developed by Tencent. People began to use it in 2011.
It lets us chat, send pictures, make free phone and video calls and look at friends’ photos.
WeChat Pay has become an institution (机构) in China, and it plays a key role in turning China into a largely cashless society. And it’s changing Chinese traditions, too. One example is hongbao.
In the past, people would send friends and families hongbao on Chinese New Year, birthdays or wedding, but now billions of digital red packets are sent and received by people through WeChat instead.
The app is such a must-have, though it is mainly just popular in one country. It is one of the world’s most popular social media applications, with 963 million users.
Now WeChat has offered WeChat Pay functionality (功能) in some other countries around the world. Such functionality is aimed at Chinese users while they travel overseas.

6 . Micro blogs like Weibo are nothing new for the young Chinese. A newspaper in Chengdu did a survey last month. It found that 90 percent of junior high school students use micro blogs.
They give students an outlet (出口) for emotion. “I use micro blogs to record my life. I let everyone ‘see’ my feelings and complaints (抱怨),” said Liu Fangyue, 14, from Xiamen No. 1 Middle School. They have fun with classmates even after school. “I would send a message to praise someone who came first in the exam,” said Liu.
Teachers also join in the fun. “When I sit down to talk to my students, they may not tell me their real thoughts,” said Lu Dongping at Nanning No. 2 Middle School. “But on micro blogs, they are more relaxed. They even make fun of me.”
You would be wrong if you think micro blogs are all about fun. Zhong Yun from Xiamen Haicang Experimental School sees it as a tool (工具) to learn English. The 13-year-old girl follows foreign stars such as Avril Lavigne and Justin Bieber.
“In order to understand their English posts, I have to check the dictionary and learn many new words,” said Zhong.
“Micro blogs widen students’ perspectives (观点), but there are rules to follow,” said Shi Zhongying, a professor from Beijing Normal University. He shares some of them with micro bloggers.
“Manage your time, and don’t let micro-blogging affect your studies and health,” said Shi. “Don’t give out your name, family address or phone number on micro blogs. You should also respect (尊重) truth and other people’s privacy (隐私).”

7 . Seventy years ago, Jiang Minci’s parents wanted her to marry a rich man. She was young and wanted to continue her studies. So she left home to study at a school in Hunan Province. Jiang, now 89, who lives in Guangzhou, shared her story on the video sharing website Bilibili earlier this year. To her surprise, the 24-minute video about “how young people changed their lives 70 years ago” got hundreds of thousands of likes.

Jiang said, “Making and posting videos online is great fun, and it made my life more colourful.” In her videos, she usually talks about her childhood and her life stories and experiences.

9 . While most TV stations and video—streaming platforms try to attract people by producing reality shows with many popular stars, Henan TV has become popular by producing seven dance pieces highlighting traditional culture, such as Rhapsody on the Luo River Goddess, a two—minute underwater dance.
Yao Wei, director of the TV station’s Innovation Center, was invited to talk about how the TV station had produced the hit dance pieces at the three—day forum centering on the research of Chinese dance last month. “The seven dance pieces have got nearly 30 billion hits on social media platforms. That’s a huge success for Henan TV,” said Yao.
The pieces made an emotional effect on people, most of whom are members of Gen Z (people born between 1995 and 2009), Yao said.“Young people have grown up with a more open mindset and they accept Chinese culture willingly and are proud of it,” he added. “What we need to do is present Chinese culture in more interesting ways.”
Yao pointed out that they are also changing their shows to attract younger people. One of the keys is to produce content with strong visual creativity, such as the latest technology and stage settings, like underwater scenes, which have become the new ways of telling stories about traditional Chinese culture. Another key to successfully reaching younger people is using social media platforms to move up the shows.
“Social media is being shaped and driven by young people. It’s a powerful form of communication. When they take a quick scroll through their phones, they easily become interested in an eye—catching video.” Yao said.

Xu Li, a student from Guangzhou, had a week-long trip in Beijing with her parents this summer. She wanted to record some interesting things in her trip, so she made her first vlog (微视频). To make the vlog more interesting, she used a song as the background music (BGM).
