Zhang Chaoyang Completes 4.15km Swim Across Weihai Bay to Promote Sohu Video Broadcaster Conference

This newspaper reported that on September 15, Sohu founder, chairman and CEO, and doctor of physics Zhang Chaoyang successfully breaststroked across the Weihai Bay, starting from Liugong Island, covering the entire 4.15 kilometers, and finally arrived at Xingfumen Square, taking 2 hours and 36 minutes to complete the challenge.

Zhang Chaoyang chose swimming to promote the 2024 Autumn Sohu Video Broadcaster Conference, scheduled to take place on September 22. He aims to attract more people to Sohu Video’s “Follow Stream” to experience the fun of video social networking.

At the event, Zhang Chaoyang compared the Broadcaster Conference to an important product launch conference of Sohu, strongly recommending Sohu Video’s “Follow Stream”. He emphasized that “Follow Stream” is a strategic product of Sohu, serving as both a content consumption platform and a platform for social interaction with content creators. Currently, “Follow Stream” has formed a rich and diverse content ecosystem, with popular tracks including knowledge live broadcast, medicine, technology, and life comedy.

One notable example is “Zhang Chaoyang’s Physics Class”, a representative IP of knowledge live broadcast, which has attracted professional science knowledge broadcasters to join in and share knowledge. Zhang Chaoyang attributes the success of the physics class to its combination of new media with basic science, adopting the form of “short video + live broadcast” to make hard-core physics knowledge accessible.

Zhang Chaoyang revealed that the broadcaster conference will be an interactive market and a unique carnival. Talented broadcasters from various fields, including science, health, KPOP, integrated media, Chinese style, photography, and pan-life, will gather in Qinhuangdao, along with notable figures such as Sun Yang, Liu Yan, Huang Ling, and host Li Siyu, to create a social wave of “making friends through video”. Sohu Video will broadcast the entire event live.
