When they came to the mainland, they witnessed the rapid development and progress of the motherland, made new friends, condensed new emotions, and felt the enthusiasm and warmth of their compatriots. They are the "communicators" of cross-strait integration and development, and the "disseminators" of positive energy. The voices of young people on both sides of the strait should be listened to by you and me. China News Network specially launched the "Youth Listening • Cross-Strait" integrated media column to jointly record the true voices of young people on both sides of the strait.

China News Network, May 5 (Ma Zhuang, Chen Wentao) Urban development, human warmth, street food... These have become important contents of the videos of Taiwanese youth self-media workers. They use the lens to record the real development of the mainland and convey the warmth between people. Many Taiwanese netizens are also paying more and more attention to the mainland, and they learn about the real mainland through the videos of these self-media workers. What parts of the mainland are Taiwanese netizens interested in? Recently, three young Taiwanese engaged in self-media work shared their views on the "Qingting, Cross-Strait" column of China News Network.

In the videos shot by Taiqingqu Xianping, most of the content is mainly to introduce the cuisine of various parts of the mainland. As a self-media practitioner, he found with his long-term observation that in fact, Taiwanese people are curious about each other like mainland people. Whenever he returned to Taiwan, friends in Taiwan would always be concerned to ask where he went to the mainland this time.

In recent years, due to the impact of the epidemic, direct exchanges between Taiwan and the mainland have become less, and it is precisely because of this opportunity that Qu Xianping said that he can enhance the understanding between compatriots on both sides of the strait by making videos, so that more Taiwanese people can understand the mainland and reduce misunderstandings.

"On the Internet, many may be keyboard warriors casually typing a few words, which may make netizens have a misunderstanding of this place." When talking about how to reduce the information error between people on both sides of the strait, Qu Xianping said that many Taiwan people have never been to the mainland, and they can only obtain information from some reports on the Internet. When they had questions about the mainland, Qu Xianping felt that someone needed to stand up and say to them, "You really have to feel it with your eyes and heart to know what the reality is." ”

Similarly, Internet celebrity blogger Yan Yan shared what she saw and heard on social platforms in the form of a video. Her video includes information about poverty alleviation on the mainland and cross-strait exchanges. According to the feedback of netizens, Yan Yan noticed that Taiwanese netizens were actually more concerned about whether the mainland-related videos they posted were real.

Due to the influence of the island's online ecology, it is rare to see positive information from the mainland on Taiwan's social media. However, in the video taken by Yan Yan, there are high-rise buildings and mobile phone mobile payments that reflect the rapid development of the modern mainland; There are also conversations that reflect the true views of students on both sides of the strait... These mainland, which looks "unreal" in the eyes of Taiwanese netizens, are also what they are curious about.

"Through my video, they (Taiwanese netizens) may want to know a little more about the mainland." Yan Yan also specifically mentioned that she hopes that through her own video, Taiwanese netizens are willing to buy a ticket and a Taiwan compatriot certificate to really come to the mainland to take a look, and this takes time to slowly run in and advance.

As more cities in the mainland carry out cross-strait exchange activities, more Taiwanese people have the opportunity to participate in it and get to know more cities on the mainland. According to Chen Haoqun, a Taiwanese youth who has been engaged in self-media work in Dongguan for many years, "I think that as long as I come to live on this mainland for a period of time, I will have some improvement and understanding." ”

Talking about the doubts and misunderstandings of netizens on the island about the mainland content videos he released, Chen Haoqun said that in fact, it is to maintain a normal mind, "We all speak with evidence." (End)
