This is the first in a three-part video series about Li Ziqi that examines what makes her so popular.
She has some 50 million fans in China and nearly 8 million followers overseas. Yet this online celebrity is still a mystery to many.
Li Ziqi is known for her videos where she makes seemingly everything from scratch using items foraged in the countryside. Some of her fans call her a real-life princess.
In this video, she chops down bamboo to make a sofa set.
