Financial Figures Chronicles ——A model who has been 'eliminated', using AI to manually create 200 million explosive products ❗ Single business quotation of 280000 yuan ❗ What does she rely on? I'm so shocked! A 37 year old woman who was "eliminated" from the modeling industry, with three grassroots members, used an AI tool to "hand roll" a 200 million view AI short drama within a month. The female protagonist Fang Taotao's freckles, skin texture, and eyelash angle are all generated by AI. But the person in the comment section said, "I saw myself in Peach This is the first truly popular video of this summer. But what interests me more is who the director behind it is and what this story really means for content creators. 1. Being eliminated for seven years. Feifei Fei, 37 years old. She worked as a model for seven years from the age of 20 to 27. Shoot magazines, walk shows, change over 100 sets of clothes a day, and wear over 40 down jackets on the streets of Hong Kong in one afternoon. But she never tells anyone that she is a model. It's hard to say how others see you At the age of 27, the industry eliminated her. No matter how many covers or magazines you have shot, there will always be new faces in the modeling industry. During that time, she couldn't sleep all night, tossing and turning to think about what else she could do. Later, Tiktok just started, no threshold, anyone can make. Her husband said to her, "Give it a try When the first employee of the team arrived, they pushed open the door and saw several old computers with messy scripts pasted on the wall, thinking they had entered a pyramid scheme den. 2. An unhappy content machine. Later on, she served real IP and worked as a director for millions of fan accounts. Writing a script, focusing on filming, editing copy, reviewing data, reviewing, and writing the next one: an advertising script can be completed in one hour with good data and customer satisfaction, like a constantly running machine. But she is not happy. At that time, I was constantly calculating traffic, thinking that I was particularly commercialized, and even mocking myself by saying, 'I really don't have any emotions, I just want to make some money.' The gears bite tightly, but I never ask myself, 'What do I really want to do?'. Until March of this year, she saw an AI short film called "Paper Phone": a child walked into a paper store holding 15 yuan and wanted to buy a paper phone that could call his grandmother. A thought suddenly came to mind: Can I tell the stories I wanted to film but couldn't in a different way? She called her husband and said, 'Go find someone who can do AI.'. ” At first, I didn't even know how to write job postings, and it was only during interviews with every person who came to apply that I pieced together the names of AI tools on the market from their mouths. 3. What does Fangtaozi look like? Before the release of 'The Cut off Girl', she had already 'pinched' Fang Taozi in another short film. When generating her first face, she stared at the screen for a long time and said, "I'll name her Fang Taozi right now The team is most concerned about asset preparation, the three views of the characters, each set of makeup, and the lighting and color tones of each scene, all of which are repeatedly finalized before generating the video. Is she holding an iPhone 15 or 16? What color is nail art? What clothes to wear, what lipstick to apply, what kind of house to live in, and what kind of green plants are there in that house? ” Everyone needs to think carefully. The team had a director who immediately made phone cases and manicures for the characters. Feifeifei said, "Because we are all girls, we like to add details to our characters, so why do people think she looks real She calls this process "casting": casting. It's exactly the same as the live show, except that the actors are virtual. 4. The 'Unexpected Moment' Provided by AI During the filming of 'Ah Huang', there was a scene where a child ran out of their home and shouted 'Huang Yumei'. The first time generated by AI, the child ran out and opened their mouth, but did not shout out the first sound. Technical 'mistakes'. The team looked at it again and again. So real. A child in that environment didn't shout out the first thing In the end, I directly used that one. There is also a 15 second shot of a dog tapping the door in front of it. When the team pulled it out, they cried directly, 'I don't care if it's AI at all, I just feel that what this picture presents is 100% what I want, and it exceeds what I want.'. ” Feifeifei said that many touching moments are not written in prompt words, but are "performed" by AI itself. 5. AI is just a tool, essentially a competition between people. In the past six months, the AI video tool market has undergone a significant shift. Before the beginning of the year, most AI tools still had a simple logic of "inputting a sentence and generating a scene". The technology is novel enough, and the audience is willing to pay for 'seeing AI do this for the first time'. But soon homogenization erupted, with the same face, the same transitions, the same music. The audience is beginning to experience aesthetic fatigue, and the bonus period of showcasing skills has ended. The market no longer applauds for something that looks like it was made by AI, what the audience wants is to forget it was made by AI. LibTV saw this opportunity at the beginning of this year. They found that model capabilities are rapidly improving, but creators lack a workflow that can turn "ideas" into "images". Most tools only address the 'generation' step. And the real creation requires full chain control from script, storyboarding, assets, generation to editing. So, they shifted the product logic from "lowering the threshold" to "empowering excellence", allowing creators with aesthetics and expression to no longer be stuck by the tools themselves. Yacen said, "When technology itself is no longer the threshold, the two things that truly widen the gap are the core of content and whether one is willing to fight to the end for every shot Feifeifei has a detail that left a deep impression on me. In the past, when filming real people, many shots were "made do with", the lighting was not right, the actors were not in the right state, the budget was not enough, and there were too many reasons for her to say "forget it". But AI will not compromise. It is not tired, does not cause emotions, and does not require coaxing. As long as the creator is willing to relentlessly pursue it, it will follow through to the end. In the past, when filming real people, a lot of things were made do. Whether AI will make do or not depends on the people who use AI. ” And she chose not to compromise. 6. Write at the end Currently, over 1300 AI short films are released online every day. The vast majority don't even have a chance of being kicked away. The template of the routine is consuming the audience's already limited trust, and the homogenized content is accelerating its forgetting. But 'The Dismissed Girl' proves another thing: Creators who relentlessly pursue scripts, characters, and expressions will ultimately reap the rewards of traffic. Audiences are not unwilling to pay for AI content, they are just unwilling to pay for things that "look the same". Feifei, with seven years of modeling experience and over a decade of behind the scenes accumulation, wrote the sentence spoken by an AI girl standing in front of a dress priced at 39.9 yuan: If this city is only willing to put me on the side, then I will stand in the middle myself Both Fang Taozi and herself said this sentence. When the technological threshold is lowered, who can stay depends on who is willing to polish every shot to satisfaction. AI is just a tool, essentially a competition between people. Creativity and ideas are the core competitiveness, and another competitiveness is the spirit of persevering to the end with dedication! For example, the AI automated trading system for various stocks and cryptocurrencies in the market, with the decision-making system being the most core and important part. The decision-making system is not something that AI can create freely or arbitrarily, but rather something designed by humans. How to polish a perfect trading decision-making system requires an extreme pursuit and strong ambition from humans! I am also working hard to refine the AI systems for my self created BTC three-dimensional integrated trading system, demonic coin trading system, and six dimensional stock trading system. Currently, I am still in the stage of refining the trading decision-making system. It is not difficult to achieve an AI automated trading system, but what is difficult is to create an excellent trading decision-making system. This requires wisdom and perseverance ❗ ️ The core of the popularity of 'The Girl Who Was Cut Off' among numerous AI short dramas lies in the script and the spirit of perseverance. The script was created by Feifei Fei based on her own personal experience, not by AI; The spirit and actions of persevering to the end were also created by Feifeifei and her team, not AI. Which side are you standing on today The core of AI short dramas and popular content creation is: A: Technical capability and capital B: Creativity and perseverance spirit I choose B. The technical threshold will only get lower and lower, and what always widens the gap is creativity and perseverance. What would you do with AI?
