Chapter 124 Don't Be a Travel Blogger Whatever You Do
While Ye Kai was recording in the room, Dinan found a well-packed, unused surfboard in his collection room.

White background with blue border, the center position is the abbreviation of Dinan's name, and there is a row of words under the two uppercase letters.

Dedicated to Dinan, champion of the first Australian Surfing Championships.

........................

After staying abroad for a long time, Ye Kai also likes to use gestures to match his words. While speaking, he is still thinking about how to make a video after the recording is completed.

"OK, then I will give you a unified answer to the questions you asked me here."

"Maybe everyone sees that I am very happy traveling all over the country or all over the world, and I live in a good place. You may think, oh, the career of a travel blogger is really great, and then hope to become a travel blogger myself host."

"Of course, I'm glad that everyone has such a dream of traveling. It's a good idea, but are you really sure you want to make this your main business?"

"Let me analyze it for you first."

Ye Kai quickly drafted in his mind.

"First of all, you have to figure out why you are a travel blogger? Is it for travel or to make money?
First of all, I would like to talk about travel. I don’t know why I became a travel blogger. In the beginning, I have never traveled far, so I want to go a little further to see the outside world.

The idea of ​​becoming a travel blogger came to me when I started traveling. "

Ye Kai’s original intention certainly cannot be told to the audience, after all, he started traveling in order to get the money he got after punching cards in each city. Later, he wrote two books, and only then did he get rid of the financial pressure and really enjoy traveling.

If you want Ye Kai to have nothing and carry a car loan, let him resign and go out to play?This is simply impossible.

“If you guys just want to travel and become a travel blogger, of course you can, as long as the economy can afford the consumption of travel. It is very likely that at some point in the future, you will get a lot of attention, earn a little money and start traveling for free. "

"Let's talk about the second point, to make money as a travel blogger.

Let me tell you the truth, if you want to make money from travel, this is an impossible thing.You may see that I play well, travel around, Ireland, Paris... But these are very expensive.

From the very beginning until now, I have traveled with my own money.Weibo and Bilibili, the money earned may not be able to live abroad for a week, let alone eat those delicacies.

Then you may have to ask, where does my money come from?

Many people know that I have written two books and a travelogue, and a book is about to be adapted into a TV series.It will be airing soon and I am traveling with the money I earn from this.

You want to say that it is impossible to be a normal travel blogger to make money and get rich.If you have the heart, I suggest you become an anchor. Now live streaming is a very lucrative profession. "

Get rid of the rich and those who cheat.

As an ordinary person, even if there are hundreds of thousands of travel expenses, so what?

Ye Kai prefers to visit Bilibili. Last time he found a travel anchor, he started traveling with very little money and posted his travel notes on Bilibili.Looking at the amount of attention, this is already a relatively popular grandma.

Did he actually make money?

Watching his videos, you can't see famous mountains and rivers, nor can you see the Palace of Versailles or Trinity College.Most of the time, they are publishing something-what can 100 Huaxia coins buy in XX.

Or, what is it like to live in a slum in XX for a week.

Ye Kai never dared to imagine what it would be like to live in a slum for one night. He would bring a lot of equipment with him every time he traveled.The value of these devices has made some people desperate.

Maybe after a certain sleep, he never got up again and was thrown into the water of the Ganges.

Without some economics to keep yourself safe in a foreign country, a good trip can turn into a horrible thing.

Ye Kai continued: "I have said the above, if you still want to be a travel blogger, then let me tell you what skills are needed to be a travel blogger?
The most basic thing is to write travel notes, take pictures, make videos, and do live broadcasts. This is the most basic. If you don’t know any of these things, then you can’t make money by traveling.

You must know one of these four, and you must be very professional and powerful. It is best to win all of them.The first three of my own are okay, and you have seen my live broadcast, which has always been tepid.

What other skills are needed?If you want to go abroad, you'd better know a foreign language. For example, if you can speak Japanese, you can travel to island countries.If you know English, you can travel to many countries where English is the first language.

I am proficient in English, German, and French, and I am also proficient in other languages, but I am not as proficient in these three.

Everyone listened to what I said, maybe someone has already given up their thoughts?If someone still says that I just want to be a travel blogger and my attitude is very firm, then I will talk about how travel bloggers make money. "

"The first type is the bonuses of travel platforms. These websites sometimes send out some solicitations, and you can get some rewards if you win. The second type is that you have some influence. In this way, some merchants will come to you. You can Receive advertisements to make money.

The third is to be an anchor or a grandma and use videos to make money, such as various rewards for live broadcasts.

The fourth is to create your own brand, which is already very high-end. If you reach this point, you can make a lot of money. "

If we compare the four ways of making money together, the first three may still be compared on the same plane, and the fourth one goes directly to the sky by plane.

Ye Kai never thought of becoming a brand.

Ye Kai also said his thoughts on travel, if there are still people who are determined to make money from this, Ye Kai can't help it.

Finally, there was a place where he could communicate with fans without bullet screens. After talking about the trip, Ye Kai chatted a lot before turning off the recording and starting the post-production work.

The current time is three o'clock, and it should be five o'clock after finishing.The alumni group of the Design Department of Communication University has a lot of material, otherwise this video will not be released until tomorrow.

"Dong dong dong."

Someone is knocking on the door.

Is it Dinan?

Ye Kai walked over and opened the door, and it was indeed him.

Holding a very handsome surfboard, Dinan said to Ye Kai with a serious expression, "Are you really determined not to play surfing anymore? There is still such a long time in the future, are you really not going to play?"

"I……"

Before Ye Kai finished speaking, Dinan raised the surfboard in his hand.

"How about the last time? Just stay with me, I have prepared the surfboard for you. If you still feel that surfing is dangerous and the ocean is dangerous after today, then I will not persuade you again.

I know one of the best surf spots. "
