Tiktoker Viet Anh: Persistently spreading 'clean' values

Lovely "soldier"

Although he is no longer serving in the military, when mentioning Viet Anh, many people immediately think of the image of a witty, lovable and friendly soldier during his meaningful military service.

Passionate about the 7th art, after graduating from the Faculty of Law - Vinh University, Viet Anh spent some time "working" for media companies and created his own TikTok account. However, it was only when he joined the army and created content about the image of soldiers that Viet Anh became truly famous and known to many people.

“When I decided to join the army, many people wondered.join the armyfor two reasons, one is to fulfill my responsibility to the country, two is to challenge and train myself. When I joined the army, I found this environment has many interesting things. Because very few people know about it, I find a way to share it with everyone," Viet Anh confided.

Thus, Viet Anh’s TikTok account “Uncle Doai” was born. In addition to footage of soldiers increasing production, cooking, marching, etc., Viet Anh also performed many other humorous and interesting personal challenges related to his hobby of cooking. The biggest “leap” during his military service was probably when he followed the trend of “transformation” to the music “Made you look”.

While other hot TikTokers follow this music trend with typical outfits of famous fashion brands, Viet Anh follows them with 5 typical military uniforms for the armed forces. Viet Anh's unique creativity not only attracts attention because of its cuteness but also spreads the beauty of the soldier.

Continuing the series of content about the image of soldiers, Viet Anh also made many clips expressing gratitude and appreciation to the generation of fathers who died for the independence and freedom of the nation. In a creative way, this young man expressed traditional messages in a very modern and youthful way.

The accidental fame has given Viet Anh the opportunity to make money from advertising (booking). “Determining to build a long-term channel, I choose positive, healthy content and set high standards for myself with customers and partners. The products I undertake must also be reputable, clean, worthy of the trust and love of my followers. With that mindset, I am completely confident in the path I am taking, even though the development may be slower than some people in the same field,” Viet Anh shared.

More than passion

Viet Anh believes that to go the long way with content creation, one must have passion. But there is another reason for the young man to pursue this path.

“In my opinion, there are three important milestones on the path of content creation: one, when your product goes viral and has the first followers; two, when you have the first booking customers (place your ads) - this stage usually lasts for a few months; three, when you overcome the stagnation stage, without more followers and partners. Only when you overcome stage 3 and still have enough "passion" to maintain a regular creative work can you stick with this job,” Viet Anh shared. Viet Anh himself has been very disciplined, strictly looking at himself to overcome the boredom and inertia of the stagnation stage.

After his military service, Viet Anh expanded his content creation and shared more about his own experiences. In those contents, the young man with a mischievous and intelligent face was especially happy to join his friends in supporting the "Zero-VND Kitchen" program in Vinh City. Viet Anh confided: "Once, when I joined the kitchen members, I visited the aunts and uncles in the dialysis neighborhood and witnessed everyone's very frugal meals. On the tray, there was only white rice, a bunch of figs dipped in salt, a bowl of thin soup and 1 boiled egg, but they were willing to give me the only egg. When I refused, they told me not to worry about them, because tomorrow they would have rice at the "Zero-VND Kitchen". After that time, I realized the pricelessness of volunteer work and was determined to spread more community events like this."

Like a miracle of gravity, Viet Anh's wish has attracted many more events.for the communitycome to me, the latest is the project "Christmas for children", including the event "Cooking milk tea for children" aimed at children in the highlands of Thanh Chuong district.

True to his word, after the school was built, Viet Anh and his friends brought many gifts for poor children in the highlands and ingredients from Hanoi to Thanh Chuong to make milk tea. Looking at the eager, happy faces when drinking milk tea for the first time, listening to the children whispering: "Next year, if we are good, will we be able to drink milk tea again?", Viet Anh understood that what he had been doing was truly meaningful.

Recently, Viet Anh also participated in livestreaming to sell fashion products and sent 100% of the profits to children in difficult circumstances; combined with TikToker Le Anh Nuoi to cook rice for children in the highlands... "Although what I am doing is very small, I will persevere to the end, I will do my best!", Viet Anh said.
