A slightly awkward “African Blessing Video”

“Dear xxx beautiful woman, African old irons wish you and your family a happy New Year, everything comes true and everything goes well!”

“Happy birthday to xxx, always smiling!”

“Xxx, we all love you, we are all yours!”

The above blessing text is written on a blackboard, with one or more black friends holding the blackboard and mechanically shouting the key information in Chinese while looking at the camera… This scene is occasionally posted by some creators on short video platforms.

Although the text is plain and the pronunciation is awkward, such videos often generate considerable traffic.
