Some have been quarantined at home for more than a month.<\/p>\n<p>In the past week, a new fad where people pay to receive video well-wishes has become popular among residents. The videos feature foreigners \u2014 most of whom are Africans \u2014 sending messages in \u201cpoor Chinese\u201d while performing simple dances and saying they hope that Shanghai\u2019s lockdown will end soon and residents\u2019 lives will return to normal.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the videos feature African men, who are often topless and show off their muscles by flexing, as well as children, while some feature Caucasian women, believed to be from Russia or Ukraine.The dancers in the videos hold up a blackboard with Chinese characters for specific residential complexes\u2019 names and messages of support. The actors will follow a Chinese man who reads the blessing messages aloud in Mandarin.<\/p>\n<p>It costs dozens of yuan to make a video that lasts for around 30 seconds. The foreign actors will also sing or dance if the customers pay an extra fee of 100 to 200 yuan (US$15.70 to $31.40).Some African men are seen holding guns in the videos, posing like mercenary soldiers. Others are dressed in the traditional clothing of various regions of Africa.<\/p>\n<p>Video clips of blessings from foreigners targeting Chinese customers have been increasingly popular on the mainland in recent years. The videos are produced by overseas-based Chinese agents who promote their products on social media apps like Douyin and WeChat directly to Chinese consumers.Mainland customers favour these videos as they are seen as exotic and amusing. The short video clips are often widely shared on social media, where many in China dedicate significant time and energy to following new trends and trying to emulate them.<\/p>\n<p>In the past, these videos were ordered for birthdays. Recently Shanghai\u2019s residents have found a new use for the videos, creating tailor-made messages as a way to boost their morale and vent their frustrations about lockdown life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe desperately need comfort and encouragement,\u201d wrote a user at Douyin.The sudden surge in demand from Shanghai has left some overseas video message agents struggling to keep up with orders. Some have been working on up to 200 videos a day, agents have said on WeChat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
