Yooupi is a Chinese outdoor video creator born in Luzhou, Sichuan, and currently residing in France. She is active on platforms like Bilibili (2.3M subscribers) and YouTube (420k subscribers). Her videos cover beachcombing, dumpster diving, local markets, and food. Known for her stunning looks, humorous language, and lively personality, she has gained a massive following ranging from the elderly to children.

According to the Bilibili documentary "Go to Your House for Dinner" Season 3, her real name is Ge Xingchen. She moved to France for studies in 2013. The unfortunate passing of her father became a lifelong pain, and she started creating content in 2020 to distract herself from the grief. Her mother, who is caring but strict, describes her as "comparatively introverted" and someone who doesn't easily reveal her inner world. However, to outsiders, Yooupi appears forthright, quirky, and naturally social. She identifies as an ENTP personality, is very talkative, and can stream for over 7 hours straight. Yooupi has strong copywriting skills and camera sense, and as a perfectionist, she constantly strives for excellence in her work.

After graduating in 2021, Yooupi worked in curation. With the income from her videos increasing, she is now a full-time content creator. She speaks fluent French, though her English is average. Influenced by her circle of friends, her Mandarin carries a slight Dongbei (Northeast Chinese) accent. Besides work, she loves gaming. She used to play MMOs but now mainly plays Steam games due to time constraints. Long screen time during her student days led to high myopia; she wears glasses daily but switches to contact lenses (sometimes colored) for filming.
In addition to uploading videos, she occasionally livestreams on Bilibili about 3-4 times a year.

"Yooupi" is derived from the French interjection "Youppie" or "Youpi", used to express joy, excitement, or cheerfulness. It is also used when taking photos to help adjust the mouth shape and posture, similar to saying "Cheese" in English. The word itself has no specific meaning, but as a nickname, it fits Yooupi's lively personality perfectly.

Meaning of Real Name "Ge Xingchen"
Ge (葛): An ancient Chinese surname, originating from the descendants of the nobles of the State of Ge during the Zhou Dynasty.
Xingchen (星晨): Derived from the idiom "Liáo Rú Chén Xīng" (Sparse as morning stars), referring to the stars at dawn. It symbolizes rarity, excellence, and being outstanding.

In 2021, she reached 100,000 followers on Bilibili. In January 2024, she was selected as one of Bilibili's "Top 100 Uploaders of 2023".

Yooupi appears wearing a hat in many videos. Initially, this was to keep her hair in place and for on-camera effect. A failed perm experience when she first arrived in France led her to distrust French barbers, so she cuts her own hair. She prefers large wavy curls, but if not managed properly, the fluffy hair can affect filming and movement. Over time, the bucket hat and twin braids became her signature look, a style she has maintained for a long time.

Yooupi has worked with 3 cameramen in France:
1. The first cameraman quit halfway.
2. The second cameraman was Chinese and returned to China during the pandemic (after she hit 100k fans on Bilibili).
3. The third cameraman has collaborated the longest (since at least 2021). He is a long-time friend, born in 1998, a French-born Chinese. He is bilingual in French and Chinese (native level) and is introverted. He has a full-time job and films part-time.

Additionally, Yooupi hires cameramen in China for pure employment relationships. Videos in China, Indonesia, etc., are filmed by these crews.
Livestream Assistant: The companion who appeared in Yooupi's first livestream in 2021 was a male classmate. Since the cameraman didn't go to Brittany, the classmate acted as a helper. He had a girlfriend at the time, but some fans mistakenly thought he was the cameraman.

"Brittany" is the region in northwestern France where Yooupi filmed her earliest and most frequent beachcombing videos. "Air Force" (空军) is Chinese fishing slang for returning empty-handed. Because Yooupi often catches nothing in her hunting videos, fans jokingly call her the "Queen of the Empty Catch in Brittany." Although her skills may need improvement, her authentic style is widely loved.

Meaning "Leader of the Beggars' Sect," this nickname relates to her dumpster diving series. In these videos, Yooupi finds discarded but safe-to-eat food or reusable items in French dumpsters. She shares practical tips to help people understand how someone in financial difficulty can improve their life through these discarded items.

ENTP is one of the 16 MBTI personality types, and Yooupi has this personality. ENTPs usually possess a brilliant mind and agile thinking. They never hide these advantages, enjoy debating with others, and love tossing out novel and shocking viewpoints, often becoming the center of attention in social situations. As extraverts (E), social activities leave them energized and vibrant. Female ENTPs are extremely rare, making up only about 1-2% of the general population, making it one of the most highly favored personality types. ENTPs always instinctively and subtly exert influence on others to control the situation. At the same time, ENTPs are characterized by being warm on the outside but cool on the inside, and they are often unbound by secular morality, showing little concern for things that ordinary people value.

Yooupi's videos need to cater to the broadest audience, including children and the elderly, and convey positive values. Therefore, her image in the videos is the result of careful planning, screening, and editing. What is presented in the videos is only a part of Yooupi, or the "Yooupi in the audience's imagination". In her livestreams, the audience can see a more multi-dimensional and real Yooupi. Generally speaking, the temperament and image presented in the videos and livestreams are basically consistent, just a bit less "well-behaved" and a bit more "casual". She will occasionally roast her fans, making the livestream feel more like a chat between friends, where the audience can still feel her "frankness", "agility", and "stunning beauty". In reality, she is "a bit crazier" and "more sharp-tongued" than in the livestreams, and will crack "dark jokes" with friends. Therefore, although she has many friends, there are not many close ones.
