"Redundant and Mao MaoJie" is just a character

Yu Zhaohe was born in 1992 in Guiyang, Guizhou, a standard science and engineering male majoring in architecture at a university in southwest China.

The reputation of "Redundant and Mao MaoJie" overshadowed Yu Zhao and this real name. If he is not in the era of online short video popularity, he should become a good construction industry or media practitioner.

On October 22, 2018, a short video called "The Difference Between People in the City and Our Bundy" suddenly exploded on the Internet, with slightly exaggerated content, full of jokes, and laughter but not embarrassing at all.

In the video, a female figure wearing an orange-red wig in the vernacular dialect of the southwest region uses an almost crazy way to deduce a certain section in the urban-rural difference sequence pattern, which vividly reflects the difference between culture and concept.

Soon, the video about "Redundant and Mao MaoJie" was frantically forwarded, and on major social platforms, "Good hi, I feel that life has reached a climax, and I feel that life has reached its peak." "It quickly became the talk of netizens, and the memes flew all over the sky, and attracted various remakes and entertainment stars to imitate."

Yu Zhaohe's "Mao Mao Sister" is an ordinary woman wearing a wig and bright lipstick, using "Guipu" mixed with dialect vernacular, using exaggerated techniques to reproduce life scenes such as love, shopping, weight loss to friends party, etc., and reproducing the normal life of women who are mixed with traditional and modern cutting-edge fashion in laughter and anger.

On the crowded subway, in the depressed office building, a trademark red wig and exaggerated laughter, "Mao MaoJie" soothes the young people who are working hard in the city with laughter.

The image of Mao Maojie comes from the women in life and the observation of life, and the female figures such as "Three Sisters" and "Xiao An" that appear in the video can find similar life archetypes. In Yu Zhaohe's view, he is starting from a female perspective and speaking for women in the form of Mao Maojie's dictation or spitting.

Yu Zhaohe, who grew up with his mother, has loved to observe and perform since he was a child. In a video about shopping malls to buy clothes to bargain, the idea comes from the scene of the mother selling clothes in her early years, including "ktv Mai Ba", "girlfriend eating hot pot when losing weight", "mother-in-law and daughter-in-law meet" and many other popular short videos, many of which come from shopping or chatting with friends.

In his fan base, the proportion of female fans is not small, many netizens will smile after watching the video, kind, small vanity, inner drama of Mao Mao sister is not herself?
