If you want to know which social app Chinese young people use a lot now, you had better not miss "short videos". Some users use short video apps because they think it is fun to share short videos about their lives, while others have different purposes(目的) as well.
A 12-year-old user named Elsa has up to 2.7 million followers on social media. 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(依靠) them to get information. To some other users, they have a different purpose. "I can't spend many hours watching a complete video and I am a very impatient(不耐烦的) person. I don't like waiting for a programme to end. I choose to watch short videos of wonderful parts in a concert or a TV series," said Wang Zhihao.
However, some young Chinese feel bored with some short videos. "Killing time is the main reason for me to watch the short videos, but many are almost the same, so I think it is a waste of time. Moreover, I really don't like the videos which show strange or even dangerous things," said Wen Nan, another college student.
Recently, something else has happened. Some videos are asking people to buy some expensive products(产品). Some users buy the products after watching, but they may regret(后悔) soon. They should think carefully. Some short videos even sell fake(假的) products, but these sellers won't offer any service(服务) like letting you get your money back, or dealing with your trouble.
