## Case Review
This case leverages the appeal of the classic Journey to the West IP and uses AI tools for efficient content creation, solving the problems of high costs and long production cycles in traditional MVs. According to data, one video had over 5 million views, and it gained nearly 300,000 followers in two weeks, showing great potential for traffic monetization. The process is clear, and the tools are easy to access, providing an accessible path for ordinary creators to monetize. However, to maintain popularity, continuous innovation in character selection and emotional resonance of songs is needed to avoid content homogenization, ensuring long-term audience engagement and stable monetization.
