In addition to the impact of the rampant short videos on young people, there is also a huge group that cannot be ignored, and that iselderly. I believe many people have had this experience. When they return to their hometown during the Chinese New Year, the elderly at home, as long as they can use smartphones, almost all watch short videos and live broadcasts. Due to their attention, the video platform has also given birth to special big Vs with tens of millions of fans. The "xiucai" who was banned recently is one of the typical examples.

It’s okay if you just watch it, but many elderly people will easily believe in virtual content and fall into it or even be deceived. No, citizens in Chengdu, Sichuan reported that their father Feng was crazy about a certain female anchor.In 2022 alone, she was rewarded with more than 60,000 yuan, and the female anchor’s method is nothing more than directly asking for gifts from her father, or inducing her father to reward her through live PK.

A similar thing happened to Mr. Liu, a resident of Beijing. His father was also addicted to live streaming rewards.30,000 yuan was thrown into the pension in half a year.

There are also many ways for female anchors to ask for rewards. Some directly ask for gifts, some are induced through live broadcast PK, and some create their own suffering personas, such as being divorced and raising a child alone, to arouse the sympathy of the audience.

In order to prevent the elderly at home from continuing to indulge in it,The children had to activate the youth mode, but this kind of symptomatic treatment does not cure the root cause, and the elderly also have ways to deal with it, such as reopening their accounts.

After the report was released, it resonated with netizens. Many people said that they had similar situations around them, and called for the establishment of a recharge and refund application area for the elderly to specifically solve the problem of reward refunds for the elderly with cognitive decline.

However, in the opinion of experts, under the prior legal framework of this proposal, the platform is not obliged to do so.Because most elderly people have full capacity for civil conduct, the rewards they carry out are not yet to be determined, and they do not need to be ratified by a guardian like minors..
