Lin Yu’an smiled, "It’s great, no worries, feeling light. In the future, my videos won’t be limited to wilderness survival. I want to shoot something else."

"For example, how our family spends winter in Alaska, how we build a chicken coop, how we take care of the kids... just as a way to record life."

"People will definitely watch!" Old Mao’s professional sensitivity was immediately triggered, and his spirits lifted, "Honestly, Brother An, your fans are almost missing you to death, you haven’t updated for nearly six months. This content direction is great, more relatable and engaging."

"That’s why I found you." Lin Yu’an glanced at the time in the bottom right corner of the screen.

"Is ’Life Below Zero’ halfway through airing now? Have you edited all the materials I sent you earlier about building the cabin?"

"It’s been edited long ago! Just waiting for your signal to release!" Old Mao’s voice grew excited again, the kind of excitement content operators feel when they see top-notch material.

"A full-length, ultra-long edited version of over two hours, from the first foundation piling to the final cabin roof, including the background music you specifically requested—all the essence is in there!"

"I dare say this is definitely the most hardcore construction video on Bilibili this year, without exception! The data will definitely explode!"

Lin Yu’an glanced at the world clock, "Okay, it’s late night on the 24th in Wiseman, and Berlin’s time is also almost morning on the 25th; European users should be waking up soon."

"We’ll launch this video on all platforms at Wiseman’s 00:00 on December 25th, as my Christmas gift to all fans."

"Received!" Old Mao replied decisively from the other end.

"I’ll go set up the scheduled release in the backend right now! Bilibili, YouTube, Xigua, TikTok, none can be missed!"

Germany, Berlin, December 25th, 10:00 AM.

On the quiet afternoon of Christmas, the city feels tranquil.

A woodworking enthusiast named Klaus is munching on Christmas cookies made by his wife while absentmindedly refreshing his YouTube subscription list.

Suddenly, a familiar channel with an avatar showing a campfire lit in the snow popped up with an update notice, nearly choking Klaus with the cookie in his mouth. He couldn’t believe his eyes!

That man who hadn’t updated in six months actually released an update on Christmas!

China, Beijing, December 25th, 5:00 PM.

Outside, the lights of the city started to glow, filled with the festive atmosphere. College student Li Lei just finished a nap that felt like recovery from a Christmas Eve hangover, exhausted as he sprawled on his dorm’s gaming chair.

He habitually clicked open Bilibili, ready to find a video to watch while eating.

At that moment, the avatar "Lin Yu’an in the Wilderness," which had been gathering dust for half a year, suddenly lit up with a little red dot on the right bottom corner—indicating new content!

A video titled "My Complete Record of Building a Cabin in Alaska!" was uploaded simultaneously on major video platforms worldwide as a special "Christmas gift."

After the video was released on Bilibili, it didn’t instantly explode online; at first, it only caused small waves within specific circles, but soon these waves converged into a massive tidal wave!

Li Lei clicked on the video, and the reassuring length of the progress bar (2:15:37) elicited a contented sigh from him! He skillfully set the video quality to the highest 4K and then full-screened the video.

The footage began with a serene image of Alaskan coniferous forest bathed in the sunlight of the polar day. The drone slowly zoomed closer, finally freezing on the patch of land that would soon become home.

Without even a single unnecessary sentence, Lin Yu’an’s figure appeared in the camera as he checked the large capacity Stihl MS 881 chainsaw in his hands, an orange-white steel beast.

"Buzz—buzz—"

He yanked the starter cord, accompanied by an explosive engine roar that made one’s blood pulse, and the long saw chain began rotating rapidly.

The bullet comments were sparse at first, but you could already sense the excitement of old fans:

"Front row!"

"Sofa!"

"Here we go! Opening lightning! Apocalypse tool MS 881!"

Lin Yu’an walked up to a marked spruce tree with a diameter of over half a meter. Without hesitation, he expertly positioned the rapidly spinning saw chain into the trunk.

"Hiss—"

Sawdust sprayed backward like a fountain; in front of this mechanical beast, the thick trunk seemed fragile and easily defeated.

As Lin Yu’an pulled back the chainsaw, the massive trunk let out a teeth-clenching "creak" before collapsing, stirring up a swirl of dust and broken branches.

At this moment, as if it was pre-planned, a uniform flood of bullet comments instantly covered the entire screen.

"Everyone stand up!!!"

"Everyone stand up!!!"

"Everyone stand up!!!"

And then, various bullet comments filled with longing and banter poured out like a bursting dam, completely submerging the frame:

"A sight to behold! Grandpa! The creator you follow finally updated!"

"Missing population returns! I thought a bear had eaten him..."

"Tearing up, waited from summer to winter, finally restocked my electronic pickled mustard!"

"Quiet in front of me! When I heard God An updated, I immediately backed down from the air combat in the 91st battle zone!"

Li Lei laughed, closed the bullet comments, and began to focus on appreciating this hardcore visual feast.

After watching the video for a while, Li Lei opened the bullet comments again.

"Wow, it’s over two hours of pure enjoyment right off the bat? Even the mule in the production team wouldn’t dare to rest for half a year and then work nonstop for hours!"

"Comfortable, extremely comfortable! This cutting is smoother than Dove chocolate!"
