After graduating from college, I ran back to the village to sell ducks, and unexpectedly became an "internet celebrity" with 100w fans.

A while ago, I accidentally brushed a video of a girl with a clear eyebrow cutting duck meat in the vegetable market: the appearance of the literary atmosphere, with the vitality of youth, accompanied by the neat and slightly "killing" "duang duang" chopping sound, inexplicably felt decompressed, I was suddenly attracted.

Flipping through the blogger's video, the daily hair is basically the daily life of chopping duck meat and selling duck in the wet market.

For example, when she met a "big customer" who wanted to buy a whole duck, her eyes smiled into a crescent moon, and her happiness overflowed the screen;

For example, if a guest wants to get in place in one step, she is very crisp, and when the knife goes down, the duck splits in two. Remove the internal organs with your hands, catch the duck legs with one hand, handle the knife with the other hand, and "click" a few times, and half of the duck steak will become duck fillet. The whole process is less than 20 seconds...

A little curious, when young people of the same age are still in the big city and experiencing various inner rolls, how is she willing to return to the vegetable market of her hometown to accompany the duck? How did her parents, who had hoped since she was a child, go out of the village to the big city through studying, see her choice?

So I talked to the girl. Perhaps the more we know, the more we will know about our children's generation.

I studied design, put down my paintbrush and made a living

In fact, I didn't go to the market to sell duck meat in the first place.

I like to dress, I studied fashion design in college, and when I went to school, I took various examinations like most people, and I also passed the teaching qualifications. After graduation, I first went to school to become a teacher, but because I had to face many students every day, I was always worried that I would not be able to do it, so I quit my job.

At the suggestion of my classmates, I went to Xiamen for a period of time as a fashion design assistant. But it didn't take long for the epidemic to come, the industry was sluggish, and it was not safe outside, so I thought about it carefully, first went home to accompany my parents, and then looked at the situation.

I had a very good relationship with my parents, and when I went to school, I wanted to video with them every day. After telling my parents that I was going home, of course, they were very happy to see me, but they were also afraid that I would not find a good job in my hometown.

I also know that there are definitely not as many jobs in my hometown as in the city, but the mentality is very good at that time. I think work will not be without, it is nothing more than good or bad. My parents fed me by selling chicken and duck meat, and I didn't want to do it either.

Because I grew up with my parents to go out with the stalls, help them bag chicken and duck meat, find change for guests, do some chores, and later learn to cut meat, I think it will be very fast.

Thinking about it this way, I really chose to sell duck meat in the end. Life is sometimes so "interesting", as if it is a reincarnation in the dark, helpless but not all, because I always feel that I will make a name.

Sell duck meat for video and record the fireworks in the wet market

Having made up my mind and doing what I said, I set up a small table in the open-air wet market, put on an electronic scale, put on a board, and began to operate.

In order to sell more, I rarely rest, and I don't sit on the bench. It is normal to squat for five or six hours, and you can buy thirty or forty in an afternoon. I don't earn much, but I can support myself.

My hometown is not a big place, and people are familiar even if they don't know each other. Seeing that the college students who had a hard time going out returned to the vegetable market, most of them were still quite sighing: "Do you still have to set up a stall after graduating from undergraduate?" ”

I myself sometimes find it funny. College roommates, three became fashion designers, one became a teacher, and only I chopped ducks at the wet market and haggled with clients.

But my mindset has always been positive and not discouraged at all.

My "fan confidence" may have come from the unconditional respect of my parents. Although they saw that I did not understand my choice, they never said anything about me, but gave me a lot of practical help, such as how to cut more sharply; afraid that I was tired, always wanted me to take a break to change them; when the duck meat was sold out, they trotted home to get fresh.

But after all, it is a young person, can not be disconnected from the Network, for a long time, I thought, while selling duck meat, why don't I take some videos to the Internet, record the fireworks in the market at the same time, but also let others see, feel the feeling.

Of course, my parents don't know how to make videos, but they just think that I sell duck meat during the day, and I am still busy with video editing at night, which is very hard, and has always let me pay attention to my body, and the rest is to trust me. I am so grateful!

I dared to make an unusual decision because of the love of my parents

My family has always been in poor condition and short of money, and when I was a child, my parents' greatest wish was to let me have meat every day and pay for tuition. But my home is never short of love. Mom and Dad have a very good relationship, and they haven't had a fight since they beat me.

Once my father wanted to give my mother a necklace, but because he couldn't afford it, he personally hit one. Later, my mother lost it, and every time I read it, I was very sad.

They also loved me very much, and once my father drove a motorcycle to take me to the county town to run an errand, and the wind was hot that day. My father saw that I wanted to eat ice cream, and without saying a word, he went to the commissary to buy the best one, and when he checked out, he knew that he wanted five dollars, although this was all in his pocket at that time, but he bought it without the slightest hesitation.

Growing up, my parents and I didn't have much disagreement, including when I applied for a fashion design major, my parents saw that I really liked it and supported my choice.

Although my parents are not highly educated, they are very willing to spend money on my education, and my mother often says to me: "Don't be like me, you don't know words, you have to fight." ”

It is precisely because of them behind me that I dare to make some choices that seem bold to outsiders.

I didn't expect that selling duck meat can also become a "net red"

The wet market is like a small river. Some people are particularly picky, some people bargain very fiercely, and some people always want to take advantage of a little. Facing so many customers every day, sometimes I feel a little numb.

But whether in reality or video, I want to pass on my passion for life to everyone and make every day have a temperature.

Shout out to passing guests, mouth dessert, the oldest is called aunt, uncle, young brother, sister; ask customers how to eat, if you want to fry, cut a little smaller; try to clean the duck meat, the offal, duck head, duck butt these "scraps" to remove; encounter the "big customer" who buys the whole duck, the part can be wiped ...

The most important thing is emotions, emotions are contagious, and when you are enthusiastic, customers can also feel it. There was an uncle who was a fan of me on the spot.

Maybe the audience also received this enthusiasm.

One day, my video didn't know how to catch fire, all of a sudden a lot of people paid attention to me, I became a million Internet celebrities, and even some fans came to the market from far away to find me.

One of the farthest fans came from Tianjin and brought me bags of marijuana flowers. After knowing his identity, I was moved and a little embarrassed. Thousands of miles away, the fare is more expensive than the duck.

I also received private messages from a lot of people. The students who were studying for the examination for the examination watched my video and felt very relieved and had the motivation to persevere; some people said that they listened to the accent on our side and felt particularly kind, thinking of the deceased grandfather.

Seeing so many people leave messages for me, I am more convinced that I am doing the right thing, and gradually develop a sense of responsibility for insisting on updating.

Mom and Dad were so happy to see me being noticed by so many people.

Every time I see a message that says "Mom is also very cute" and "Dad is very hardworking", I will relay it to them unchanged. They were also happy to hear about it.

Live your life first, then realize your dreams

Now every day is very busy, of course, the economy has also improved a lot.

In the morning, I help the villagers bring agricultural and sideline products with goods , if any ; in the afternoon, I go to the wet market to sell duck meat and live broadcast my vegetable farm life; and in the evening, I pick some clips that I find interesting and cut them into videos.

It takes 4-6 hours to cut a video, and sometimes it stays up all night, but I think it's very happy. Nesting in the duvet to cut videos for me, both empty and decompressed.

Some of the videos were made by my girlfriend for me, but all the videos were cut by myself, after all, only I know myself best. Because of my childhood experience, I always had a sense of crisis, and even if I had some savings, I didn't want to spend it. I think it's better to save up and accumulate thick hair.

I used to yearn for big cities, and now I often say that I am a "native of the countryside", and in the next 4-6 years, I should not change places.

In addition, in the context of the epidemic, I accidentally led three college students to return to their hometowns to re-employment, and we wrote on the wall of the studio:

"There is only one kind of heroism in the world, that is, after recognizing the truth of life, you still choose to love life.

If there is no poetry and far away in life, then try to turn chai rice oil and salt into poetry.

Without a superior family background, we can only work harder than others.

Write at the end:

After talking with Cabbage, what impressed me the most was her saying, "Our family is very poor, but I never felt bitter", because she was surrounded by the love of her parents since she was a child. Although cabbage's parents have no culture, they have given cabbage the most valuable respect and support, they trust their daughter at all times, and because of this, cabbage can let go of their hands and feet to live their own lives!

At the same time, this era is also undergoing great changes, the choice of career and personal direction has long been no longer confined to a certain framework system, and the evaluation standards of society are more diverse. So at present, should we also let go of some anxiety, don't just stare at the score, the world is so big, life is so rich, children can experience ~ ~
