Before “the humble literature” became “the humble literature”, the more widely known “identity” was the “dog licking” quotation.

As early as the beginning of 2020, “Lick Dog Diary” became popular on the Internet. Now I can search for it, and I can find a collection of “Lick Dog Diaries” summarized by many netizens.

Like this:

Bao, how long will I not take a bath before I can become your stinky treasure? Is one year okay?

However, it wasn’t until March 29 that “Zhang Zhuyu”‘s “dog licking” video carried the hashtag “Humble Literature” for the first time. This video has been praised 130,000 times and is also one of the earliest works of “Humble Literature”.

In the video, “Chezi” still put the emoji bag and said:

Bao, today I carried cement, and once I carried a sack, the worker praised me for being strong, and I cried in an instant. I can carry everything, but I can’t help thinking of you, my treasure.

Immediately afterwards, “Chezi” posted another “Mixed Cement” version of “Humble Literature”:

The worker said that I mixed the mixture too thinly, and I dare not refute it. What he didn’t know was that I didn’t put more water. He just missed you very much when mixing the cement, and tears fell into the cement.

This video has reached 524,000 likes. Because the original soundtrack has been quoted too many times but many people don’t know the source, “Chezi” released this video again on May 4th, which was praised 959,000 times, which was also his last 2 months The most popular work.

After several “Humble Literature” videos received good enthusiasm and response, “Chezi” began serializing the “Humble Dog Licking Diary” video series starting on April 20. Each video is a section of “Humble Literature”. “.
