High-definition dress, perfect makeup, gorgeous stage. Everything makes ordinary people feel out of reach.
However, the "country supermodel" Lu subverted everyone's perception of supermodels.
Lu is a short video blogger who became popular on 20 19. He will wear a homemade plastic bag dress, take Shan Ye Lane as the runway, shake his head, turn around, lean on his hips and make a fixed point. His slim figure is cool and steady, and his eyes are firm. He can't see that he is just a self-taught "wild" model.

Lu, whose real name is Lu Kaigang,1was born in the countryside of Hengxian County, Guangxi in June, 1999. His parents are crane drivers and work in other places all the year round. Lu Kaigang lived with his grandparents when he was a child.
In the fifth grade of elementary school, Lu Kaigang saw the models on the catwalk on TV, and watched the models pose on the runway in beautiful clothes. His eyes sparkled with envy. He told himself: "When I grow up, I must step onto the international stage and be a supermodel."
For this dream, while other children are playing, he is teaching himself modeling steps.
Unfortunately, at that time, Lu Kaigang's family was poor and unable to help him realize this dream.
After graduating from junior high school, Lu Kaigang had to go out to work for a living.
Because of his young age and lack of excellent skills, Lu Kaigang worked as a kitchen apprentice, a barber shop apprentice and an assembly line worker in Foshan.
When he was a worker in a factory, Lu Kaigang made no money assembling a product, with a monthly salary of only 2,500 yuan, but the hard life did not destroy his "supermodel dream".
He found that short videos developed rapidly, and he realized that he might be able to realize his supermodel dream with short videos.
At that time, he had no money to buy clothes, so he designed, cut and sewed clothes with discarded plastic sheets in the factory.
In order to walk the catwalk well, he practices in the corridor of the factory dormitory every day, and then practices the female step after practicing the male step. He also recorded a video of his catwalk, and compared with the pace of professional models, he did a little digging.
Then, he asked his workmates to help him shoot videos, but only took dozens of videos and uploaded them to the short video platform without splashing.
And not long after, the workers were reluctant to help him shoot videos, preferring to go out to play during the break.
Fortunately, he met many dream catchers like him through the short video platform, and they gave him a lot of help and advice.
Also at the suggestion of netizens, Lu Kaigang changed his name to "Lu". The meaning he gave the name was: surnamed Lu, and the works he made were very fairy.
After the name change, the road still chooses to stick to it. Watching many ordinary people realize their dreams through short videos, he believes that he also has the possibility of success.
He decided to give himself a year to try. If you still can't get angry after one year, come out to work again.
In this way, in 20 19, he returned to his hometown in Hengxian County, Guangxi, and started shooting videos full-time.

Lu knows that his height is only 178 cm. If he can't be a male model, he will wear women's clothes and walk with women. When he walked in the fields wearing his own skirt and tube top, the whole village thought he was "neither male nor female" and "ugly and strange", and even people from neighboring villages came to see his jokes.
Despite this, he still hasn't given up his dream, thinking about how to design beautiful clothes and shoot videos that netizens like every day.
He ignored the cynicism from the Internet and reality. He said he had a bad memory and couldn't remember those bad things.
At that time, Lu would never have thought that his fate would soon usher in great changes.
2065 438+09. 5. 20 Lu turned out the blanket at home and covered himself. She walked barefoot in her yard and took a video and uploaded it to the Internet.
Many netizens commented on him after watching this video: "You have redefined a blanket." "Self-confident people can wear noble temperament even if they are worn out."
With this video, Lu gained a lot of fans.
After that, he updated the video more diligently. He thinks every day: What will the next video be about? How can we become popular again and make a breakthrough in the order of fans?
This day will come soon.

He began to be invited to shoot the cover of fashion magazines, went to Milan and London Fashion Week to participate in various activities, and met many models he admired. He finally realized his childhood dream and became a "supermodel".
However, after the fire, Ren Xian will also feel anxious. He is always worried that fans watching too many catwalk videos will cause visual fatigue. In order to better attract fans and strengthen their loyalty, he also began to try to shoot short videos of dramas and interact with some online celebrities instead of fans.
However, it is undeniable that behind his fate, it is his efforts over the past few years, and he has turned all the ridicule into his driving force.
As he once said, "I think you have to work hard to be lucky." If you didn't work hard before, you wouldn't know me. "
