Head of Product

Conversation-first AI video editor.

Create and edit video through natural language. Text, images, scripts go in; publishable video comes out. I own product strategy, roadmap, and the full creation workflow.

Reported 25M+ impressions from one AI film experiment.

I created a Stranger Things finale reimagined entirely with Seedance 2.0. The film went viral across Chinese and international media, becoming one of the most-referenced examples of AI video storytelling in 2026.

Coverage

Methodology

Content scarcity, script information density, fast MVP testing, cross-platform distribution, and an AI-native production pipeline. Reach numbers are reported / estimated public figures.

AI Will

with Xinshixiang

Designed and built an AI-guided reflective writing experience. Through structured conversation, 10,000+ young people explored mortality, relationships, and personal values. AI as medium for self-reflection, not content generation.

AI Short Films

Director, writer, and editor on multiple AI short films: The Creature (Whisk + Kling), Devices (Blender + ComfyUI), Vision (MJ + GPT-4o + Luma/Runway). Each serves as a public workflow breakdown and production-method test.

Long-term Bilibili video creation since college, including Fudan University graduation MV, campus films, vlogs, music videos, annual reflections, and later AI video experiments.
