What does it feel like to have an exotic partner?
Cultural differences? language barrier? Cross-border distance? In the presence of loved ones, these are insignificant.
Because of love for him, the fitness cool girl @ pink Feifei gave up the principle of her own unmarriedism, willingly became an American daughter-in-law, and just had her own baby this year.
Because of his love for her, literary writer @Jonny johanne frantically searched for her name on the Internet and chased all the way to Ukraine, just to see her again.
Because of the love for her, the @KatAndSid that began with the campus romance, the most beautiful scenery in the camera is always exclusive to her American sweetheart, and every moment is frozen.
The first heartbeat, the first quarrel, the first hesitation to move on, they recorded every aspect of happiness with words, pictures and videos on Weibo.
In addition to exotic couples, they also have another label - "Weibo Big V".
On the open and inclusive platform of Weibo, they also want to use their stories to encourage more people to live out love and the most beautiful appearance of life.
@Pink Feifei said that although there are many mainstream social platforms at present, Weibo is still one of her favorite platforms.
Because of the precipitation of her every growth here, looking back on the content of that year, she can still remember her original self.
On October 19, Weibo launched the 2020 Super Reds Festival.
The latest data shows that as of August this year, the scale of Weibo head authors has exceeded 1 million, and the scale of big V users is close to 80,000.
Among them, there is no shortage of transnational couple bloggers represented by @Jonny Johnny, @Pink Feifei, @KatAndSid like a beautiful landscape, once again making netizens believe in the beauty of love.
Here are the true stories about these Weibo Big Vs:

The first time I saw Kat was when we were both freshmen.
It was already class that day, and suddenly a late girl, dressed in black, sat directly next to me.
She's an American, but unlike most American girls I know, she's less extroverted and a bit of an Asian girl.2
I wanted to get to know her, immediately, right away.
When I got the list of points handed down by the professor, I immediately counted up two lines and found her name, Kat, which was her.
I immediately searched for her name on Facebook again, but from the homepage, she already had a boyfriend at the time.
We kept our distance one by one, and we both knew that there was still each other in the school.
Two years later, when I was about to forget her, by chance, we met offline.
After learning that Kat was single, I felt that the opportunity had arrived.
On that date, Kat and I had pretty much talked about what we hadn't been able to say in person for two years, and by the end of the conversation, it was early in the morning when I got back to my accommodation.
Later, Kat and I fell in love.
We both love to travel, New York, Washington, Shanghai, Taipei... We couldn't count the cities we've been to, and the longest trip lasted almost a month.

From 2016 to May 2017, when we graduated from college, Weibo updated every trip I made with Kat, Kat's Chinese, and 2 years after graduation, we changed our lives in 3 countries...
On April 22, 2017, our Weibo followers broke the 1 million mark for the first time.
After graduation, I made a decision that surprised everyone and gave up my job in a financial enterprise to become a full-time blogger!
In my opinion, a job that follows the rules is not as challenging as being a full-time Weibo blogger, who can also record everything about my life with Kat.
However, seeing that many Weibo couples like to send "dog food" content, Kat and I are a bit embarrassed - we don't want to be the "perfect lover" in the eyes of the public, that is too unreal.
We set ourselves a small request, only to restore the real life me and Kat, to record each of our trips, the cultural differences we encountered in the trip, and the discussion of certain hot events in China and abroad.
Because of the truth, the video we released" "Challenge to Ignore Your Girlfriend All Day" was played nearly 1.86 million times on Weibo, and it also became the first place in the VLOG day list of the whole site of Weibo.
During our trip to Japan, we filmed "Kat Disclosure of Japan's Right-Wing Hotel", which explained what the "right-wing" books placed at APA Hotels in Japan were, and spoke up for the Chinese people.
Such videos have received attention and reports from the official accounts of @People's Daily, @People's Daily, and @CCTV Finance.
Kat and I have our own knowledge and understanding of love, which is probably one of the reasons why fans like us.
How to come in real life, how to shoot in reality.
I will shoot the usual jokes with Kat, I will also record Kat's angry responses and counterattacks, and we never deliberately greet me in front of the camera...
Although, occasionally, I also have the illusion that the relationship between me and Kat always has to be shown to the outside world, and this relationship seems to not only belong to our two-person world, but with the participation of all netizens.
But Weibo still brings us more positive significance, not only to bring us considerable benefits, but also to build Kat and me into a larger world.
In order to shoot the video, we had to go out and see more, and everything that happened during the trip deepened the relationship between me and Kat.
I think the best couple must be the best friend, tolerant and respectful of each other, very comfortable together, no need to deliberately make changes and compromises for each other.
Say what you have, communication is the most important thing. This is like-mindedness, but also a match, harvesting growth and warmth in getting along.

This year, Mr. Ann and I had our own baby.
Friends said that our marriage was a big "true fragrance overturning" scene, because I was an independent woman who preached unmarriedism everywhere.
When I was 16 years old, my parents divorced, and I was not surprised at all, but I felt fortunate that they finally recognized the fact that marriages were unhappy.
Since then, I've become a complete unmarried:
Why stay tied to another stranger for the rest of your life? Why give that birth child?
I can't figure it out, I think it's good to be alone.
I devote all the time that girls my age spend in love with at work.
First became the first girl to make equipment in the gym, then the group exercise coach, the founder of the fitness studio, the editor of the fashion and health men's magazine, the editor-in-chief of the Sina fitness channel...

On June 18, 2016, I competed in my first bodybuilding competition, in which I won the title of "Bikini Champion".
Since that day, the trajectory of my life has also changed dramatically.
One of my articles was reported by multiple platforms, and as a result, I gained a large number of female fans and became a Weibo celebrity, integrating multiple identities such as champion, media person, Internet celebrity, editor-in-chief, athlete and so on.

All of this has nothing to do with love — I want to prove to myself, to all the fans on Weibo, that my life options don't need love.
It wasn't until 2018 that I met Mr. An, a foreigner who had lived in Shanghai for many years.
At that time, I was too busy to see him, and every WeChat greeting from Mr. An, I was a short reply of only 1-2 words.
Even the first time we met, it was temporarily arranged because I stopped by to Go to Shanghai for a business trip.
Later, Mr. An defined our first meeting as "being interviewed", and I kept grabbing him to talk and ask questions throughout the date.
However, since then, whether it is my Weibo, Ins or Circle of Friends, I will always see Mr. An's likes and comments under every update.
I'm a surfer and go surfing in Bali several times a year. During the Spring Festival of 2019, Mr. An suddenly told me that he was also going to go there for a vacation.
Perhaps the environment in Bali is more relaxed than in China, and I did not "interview" him again this time, and he also let go of his guard against me.
On my last day in Bali, I spent an afternoon chatting at Mr. Ann's residence and suddenly realized that we were actually in tune with each other.
Bali has thus become a blessed place where our love begins.
Since then, my Weibo is no longer just a sharing of fitness content, but also the figure of Mr. An, of which the topic of #Me and Mr. An has been read by 2339.1w and the amount of discussion has reached 3206.
In the Spring Festival of 2020, I followed Mr. An back to his birthplace of Seattle.
I remember that day he mysteriously said that he would eat with me at night, and he also specifically stressed that he wanted me to "look better", and even personally helped me choose clothes, cosmetics and accessories.
It was a typical Michelin restaurant where every dish was served very slowly.
At that time, I was still in jet lag, and I wanted to eat early and go back to bed, so Mr. An proposed to go upstairs to take pictures and check out.

I learned on the second floor that the restaurant is best known for having large floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the night view of Seattle.
It was pitch black in the room, and Mr. Ann suddenly turned his back on the night view of Seattle and proposed to me on one knee, all of which was photographed by the waiter.
I went from being an unmarried independent woman to an "old mother."

I recorded every important moment in my life on Weibo.
It can be said that fans have witnessed my popularity, love, and childbirth at every step of growth.
At this point, I especially appreciate Weibo.
While I've tried other platforms, there's no better place to record and spread the flashes of ideas that make up a person's growth picture than Weibo.
I'm not the kind of fitness blogger who earns fans by wearing less and showing off my body.
On Weibo, I prefer to pass on dry goods with a kernel: for example, women should dominate their own lives, can not be lazy, whether it is relying on men, relying on parents, will make your life into passivity.
After my own "punching the face" experience, I am also more positive and optimistic about marriage, love and fertility - believing in the existence of true love, but also rationally analyzing: What kind of person is suitable for you? What kind of life is right for you?
I'm happy to admit to my fans that I eventually "surrendered" when love came, after all, the happiness and security that a good marriage brings is something that nothing else can give.

Her first encounter with her was on the beach in Xiamen.
It was her 15th and final day in China from Ukraine. The sun was shining outside that day, and she was still hesitating whether to go out.
But she thought that it was the last day of staying in China anyway, so she left something behind, so she sat on the beach with a paintbrush and a drawing board, trying to paint the sunset on the last day in China.
That dusk, I just stumbled into her field of vision.
I was drunk that day, and I don't remember the specifics of the conversation, but I remember that we talked for a long time, and there were endless topics.
Figure | @Jonny Johnny and Karina
The next day I woke up drunk and I was in a trance, I remembered the particular girl, but I couldn't remember her name, and we didn't leave our respective contact details.
I remember someone telling me that if you really want to recall something, do it all over again.
So, every day after that, whenever I had time, I would go back to the beach, face the sunset, and raise the bottle again.
After several rehearsals and memories, I finally remembered the girl's name, Karina...
One night in the middle of the summer of 2014, I typed this name into a search engine and filtered it with information such as age, gender, nationality, etc...
My heart boiled when her picture finally appeared on the screen, she was a Ukrainian oil painter who studied at the Ukrainian State Academy of Arts.
I invited her to meet, and at about the same time, I booked a ticket to Ukraine. I wasn't sure she would come, and I was mentally prepared: if she didn't show up, I would play for a week and go home.
As a result, she really came.
Then we started an online relationship for more than three years — she was still in college, and I would fly over to stay with her whenever I had time.
Karina and I were not only in love at first sight, she was more transparent about the world than I had imagined, and she always gave me space and trust.
For example, when I wanted to write a book, no one around me thought it would work, only Karina kept encouraging me to try, and later the storybook "Thank You For Coming to My World" came out.
Without her, I wouldn't be a writer or a director, and I probably would be an ordinary corporate employee right now, mostly a manager in an advertising agency or something like that.
Karina had always felt that her image was not enough to be presented to the public (although I thought she was perfect enough), until she finally had the confidence to be announced, and our daughters were born.
So, although I started doing Weibo in 2010, most of the time I shared some of my daily understanding and learning experience of various industries.
My Weibo followers are a very cute bunch of people.
Although I don't know exactly what aspect of their lives can affect them, there are always hundreds of private messages in the background of each update, and it is fans who share their feelings with me.
I read every private message carefully. Through their advice, I will reflect on myself and help me grow personally and in my life.
In January 2018, I introduced @Karina and Ruby with a video that told the story of our encounter. The Weibo video was viewed in 1945W – which shows that fans are also very enthusiastic about Karina.
On February 4, 2019, I also released my first VLOG, documenting the Chinese New Year's Eve and Chinese New Year's Eve meals that our family and Karina had together.
This table of dishes is a combination of Chinese and Western, and the table is prepared with knives and forks and chopsticks at the same time, and the collision of different cultural backgrounds is reflected through the Chinese New Year's Eve rice on this table.
I used to be a man of great personality, as can be seen in the hormones that pervaded my early works.
But since I was with Karina, everyone has felt that my work has become gentler and more intimate.
It was she who made me find the calmest version of myself.
Now, we have a new character in our VLOG – Ruby, my little daughter.
As a father, my feelings for her are more complicated.
In the video, I like to follow The West's perspective and explore the world from scratch, which can also help me re-examine my existing cognitions and obsessions.
Unlike most couple bloggers, Karina and I now have a warmer video, and I often talk about life philosophies while cooking.
If you ask me what I expect from my blogger career, I think the most important thing is to warn myself and keep my original intention.
Time never belongs to us, one day will come to the moment of parting, which also makes me cherish the people in front of me and cherish every minute and second together.
