Excerpt 1
Greek twins make a mark in live streaming
Like most others who break into the industry, Marianna and Sofia stumbled upon live streaming by chance. When they first decided to upload videos of themselves, little did they realize that they would find such a receptive audience in China.
In the beginning, the sisters uploaded short videos in Mandarin about popular spots in Beijing they visited— such as Nanluogu Xiang and Sanlitun—introducing the food they tasted. To their surprise, they received hundreds of positive comments online and more live streaming requests from their fans.
Since then, their regular broadcasts on NetEase platforms are eagerly lapped up by the audience keen to understand the finer nuances that link the two countries. Be it food, fashion, theater, or even aspects that cover their daily lives, the sisters have managed to be a cultural connection point in their own unique way.
They have become known for live streaming themselves strolling among white houses with blue domes on the island of Santorini, surrounded by the Aegean Sea; tasting traditional stuffed Greek pies at Monastiaraki Square in the capital Athens; and riding a tandem bicycle on the ancient city walls of Xi’an in Northwest China’s Shaanxi Province.
Although the attention they receive from Chinese netizens is positive, the sisters maintain that none of it would have been possible but for their excellent command of Mandarin and their in-depth knowledge about Chinese culture.
Excerpt 2
Live streaming is no excuse for life-threatening acts
In December, a male died after drinking a lot of liquor while live streaming. According to a friend of his family, he drank heavily every day for three consecutive months in order to attract lots of fans. A video clip even shows he developed a nervous twitch because he drank too much.
He is not the only one of his kind. On the live streaming platform he served, there are still many who try to attract fans by going to extremes. The more liquor they drink, the more fans they hope to get and the more money they will make.
In other words, the business model of live streaming platforms encourages people to put their health and lives at risk.
That’s illegal. According to a national regulation on online performances that came into effect in 2017, performances on online platforms should not contain any horrific, cruel, violent or vulgar content, or any content that harms the performers’ health. Obviously, drinking excessive amounts of strong liquor is against the regulation.
A similar tragedy happened when a 26-year-old man died while live streaming himself climbing a high building.
Some said the online streamers who died have chosen to do so and it is their right to make profit in this risky way. The problem is their deeds might be emulated by others who do not know how much risk is involved.
In order to curb this behavior, it is necessary to strike at the root of the problem by regulating live streaming platforms. Only when the live streaming platforms give up the business model of encouraging online streamers to attract fans via extreme challenges will such tragedies be prevented in the future.

My View on Live Streaming In recent years, the world has witnessed a rapid rise in the live streaming industry, and we have to admit that live streaming is an effective way to reach the online audience. It has massive appeal to viewers, drawing them in far more than traditional online videos. It has created stars out of ordinary people, helping them not only popularize what they want to show, but also promote the communication between different cultures. However, while looking at the positive influence, the dark side of this burgeoning market can not be ignored as well. It’s not difficult to find that live streaming has also been the breeding ground for dangerous acts and the dissemination of inappropriate contents. In my view, because of the very intimacy and immediacy of live streaming, it’s impossible to ban the medium, but we must take those exposed problems seriously. Otherwise, the disadvantages brought by live streaming would outweigh its benefits. To begin with, as many performers can make easy money by dancing, telling jokes, or simply eating and sleeping, viewers’ outlooks on work and money are easily misled. Secondly, many contents on various live streaming platforms will be considered seedy, and some go far beyond the boundary of good taste, so the spread of these contents will produce a negative social impact. What’s more, for the sake of attracting attention and making money, some broadcasters even do something illegal at all costs, which tends to induce juvenile delinquency. Last but not least, the privacy of users and the public is also hard to be guaranteed. To conclude, live streaming will not only continue to grow but also have new innovation in the future. However, to ensure its healthy, orderly and sustainable development, the supervision on live streaming should be strengthened further. All Internet-based service providers must take legal responsibility for their contents, and violators should be punished severely.
