郭有才《诺言》火遍全网，粉丝破千万背后的坚持与谦逊！
Recently, a song titled “Promise” has taken the Internet by storm. It’s performed by Guo Youcai, an Internet sensation (网络红人) from Heze, Shandong. This song has not only made Guo Youcai a household name but has also seen his fan base surge past ten million in just one month.
Guo Youcai’s story is a classic case of grassroots success. Born in a small village in Heze, he left school at the age of 13 to make a living and experienced two business failures. However, he never gave up. In 2017, he started creating videos, and in 2019, he began creating funny videos with Su Chang, until he started live streaming online in 2023. In May 2024, Guo Youcai covered Li Yijun’s “Promise,” which quickly became popular online, turning Heze South Station into a hot spot for tourists to check in.
His story, much like his song, conveys a positive and uplifting force, inspiring many to work hard for their dreams. His success did not happen overnight but was the result of years of accumulation and endless effort. During his live streams, he attracted millions of viewers in a short time and received over a hundred million likes — that was the evidence. Moreover, the humility (谦逊) that Guo Youcai possesses is a key reason why he has won over so many supporters. Even after gaining fame, he maintains a down-to-earth attitude and is grateful to every fan who supports him. This humility has not only earned him praise in the online world but has also further expanded his influence.
No matter what situation one is in, as long as one keeps on dreaming and remains humble, it is possible to create one’s own glory. Guo Youcai’s “Promise” is not just a song; it is a symbol of spirit, a firm commitment to never give up on one’s dreams.
