After combing his hair, Zhang Zian felt refreshed. He tidied up his collar and sleeves as if he was going to be on TV.
Zhao Qi was embarrassed. If there were not only three people in the room, she would have said that she didn't know this person.
Song Bai untied a shoulder bag from his back and took out a weird thing from it. It looked like a selfie stick, but much shorter and more high-end than a selfie stick. Zhang Zian had never seen such a thing before.
"What's this?" Zhang Zian asked curiously.
"A handheld PTZ," Song Bai explained, "It's used to enhance the stability of video shooting."
"Oh." Zhang Zian asked Zhao Qi, "Have you seen it before?"
"No." Zhao Qi also shook her head.
"Dude, you're so professional," Zhang Zian said with sincere admiration.
He only knew one streamer, Snowy, but Snowy usually just held a mobile phone and a selfie stick. Compared with Song Bai's digital camera and handheld PTZ, Snowy was too amateur. However, the amount of gifts in Snowy's live broadcast room... Gee, it was really enviable!
"You flatter me," Song Bai said in a low-key manner, "It's very common among vlog players."
Song Bai skillfully assembled the digital camera and the handheld PTZ together, raised the camera to himself, smiled and said, "Hello, everyone!"
"Cut!" Zhang Zian made a pause gesture, "Why do you have to speak in English?"
"Because I'm going to upload it to YouTube for the world's audience to watch, so of course I can only use English," Song Bai explained.
"Well... Can I not speak in English?" Zhang Zian clearly showed that he was a poor student of English.
"That's okay, I'll add English subtitles to our conversation before rendering," Song Bai said. He paused for a second and said with some embarrassment, "But don't expect too much, because the number of views of my vlog is very low."
This was one of the advantages of vlog over live broadcast. Subtitles could be added in the post-production to break the language barrier, so that people all over the world could see and understand it.
Zhang Zian took a black baby Dragon-Li from the kittens and brought it to Song Bai, "Please, just don't turn on the flash."
The Dragon-Li cat was very active. It kept struggling and twisting in Zhang Zian's arms. Its four little paws moved as if they were swimming, and its body was bent like a bow, showing that it had good waist and abdominal strength. It widened its yellow-green eyes, full of curiosity about Song Bai's camera lens, and even stretched out a small front paw, trying to scratch it.
Zhang Zian reacted quickly and quickly held it back, its little paw almost touching the lens.
"Is your camera okay?" Zhang Zian asked. He had heard that camera lenses were very expensive and could cost thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars. If a few scratches were left, how many Dragon-Li cats would he have to sell to pay for it?
Song looked at the LCD screen, and didn't answer.
"You?" Did I really scratch it? "Zhang Zian's heart tightened, and he wanted to take a closer look.
"No, no, it's okay. I didn't scratch it." Song Bai came back to himself. The scene of the kitten peeking at the camera just now was very distressing for Zhang Zian, who was standing at the side. But when the camera captured it, it was very cute, as if the kitten wanted to press the shutter to take a selfie. He decided to save this Dragon-Li and even use it as the cover of this vlog.
"That's good." Zhang Zian was relieved, "What do you think of this Dragon-Li?"
As a vlogger, Song Bai was used to observing the world through the camera lens and the LCD screen. The Dragon-Li in the camera lens was black, except for its chest, abdomen and four paws, which were white.
"Is this a Dragon-Li? Don't lie to me. Although this cat looks good, it's obviously a cheap cat! "Zhao Qi said in surprise.
Zhang Zian said disdainfully, "Open your eyes and look at its fur color. Is this the color of your cheap cat? Look carefully! "
Hearing his words, Zhao Qi and Song Bai took a closer look and found that the fur of this cat was not pure black, but there were imperceptible mackerel patterns in the black fur — the base color was black, and the patterns were also black, but the color was slightly different. These mackerel patterns were too dark. If the lighting in the shop hadn't been greatly improved by Guo Dongyue, they might not have been able to distinguish these patterns indoors.
"This is a black Dragon-Li, which is rare among Dragon-Li cats." Zhang Zian told them.
Indeed, compared with Zhao Qi's pure-colored British Shorthair, this Dragon-Li looked a bit rustic. But to be honest, Song Bai was a restless young man, so he didn't like Zhao Qi's British Shorthair. He always thought that Zhao Qi's British Shorthair was too lazy. Especially the scene where the little Dragon-Li clawed at the camera lens, he didn't know why it kept appearing in his mind. If he wasn't shooting, he really wanted to go back and watch that scene several times.
"Well... I don't quite understand. What's the condition of this cat?" Song Bai asked.
Zhao Qi came over and answered, "All the cats in his shop are in good condition. He picked them out from the pet breeding base himself. My Lan Lan is..."
"Stop! Why are you always talking about your British Shorthair? " Zhang Zian stared at her and said to Song Bai, "Dragon-Li doesn't need to be too particular about its condition. It's fine as long as it's healthy and lively."
"What? Aren't all cats particular about their condition? "Song Bai asked confusedly.
Zhang Zian sighed, "You're right, but Dragon-Li is not in the list of purebred cats of the CFA, so there's no need to talk about its condition."
"That's not right, right?" Zhao Qi questioned, "I remember reading similar news that Dragon-Li was recognized by the CFA, and a purebred Dragon-Li can be sold for thousands of dollars in the United States..."
"That's not true." Zhang Zian answered mercilessly, "CFA did recognize Dragon-Li, but after that, it quarreled with China and finally removed Dragon-Li from the list. So, if you like this Dragon-Li, you can buy it, but don't talk about its condition. "
Speaking of which, this matter was another good show of a catfight.
Around 2012, there was a Great Wall Club in Beijing, which specialized in breeding Dragon-Li cats. The Great Wall Club had the technology, manpower, and passion. After a period of hard work, the Dragon-Li cats they bred finally reached a relatively stable condition, and then they sent them to the United States for CFA certification.
As they wished, CFA recognized Dragon-Li cats, which should have been a happy thing for everyone. However, some unexpected disputes happened between the Great Wall Club and CFA, which strained the relationship between them. As for the cause of the dispute, there were different opinions. The more reliable version was that CFA detained the Dragon-Li cats that were sent for certification and refused to return them to the Great Wall Club, and the Great Wall Club didn't want to suffer this loss...
In short, the final outcome of the quarrel was that the Great Wall Club was disbanded, and CFA removed Dragon-Li from the list. Three losses!
The best opportunity for China's Dragon-Li to enter the world market was lost.
