Monetization Ideas
Use AI to generate images of mysterious and wise Eastern monks, paired with healing meditation quotes to create short videos on overseas platforms (such as Instagram), attracting users seeking spiritual comfort, and monetizing through traffic sharing, e-books, and paid knowledge.
Target Audience
Entrepreneurs who want to create overseas short videos.
Technology enthusiasts interested in AI image generation and video synthesis.
Content operators skilled in creating emotionally resonant copy.
Difficulty Level
★★★☆☆ (Moderate)
Although the technical aspects have mature tools, some aesthetic ability is needed to create a "Zen" atmosphere, and challenges related to operating overseas accounts must be addressed.
Operational Process
We can imagine this process as **"creating a talking super intelligent puppet":**
Step 1: Draw a portrait of the "monk" (AI image generation)
Just like drawing on paper, we use tools such as Nano Banana Pro.
You tell the computer: "Draw a kind-hearted Eastern old monk wearing a monastic robe, sitting in a peaceful temple, surrounded by candles." The computer will give you a very realistic photo.
Step 2: Find a good voice for the "monk" (AI voice generation)
Use tools like ElevenLabs.
You enter a wise quote (such as "Child, don't cry anymore"), select a gentle and steady old man's voice, and it will read it for you.
Step 3: Make the "monk" speak (lip-syncing)
Put the photo you just created and the recorded voice into a tool like HeyGen.
This tool works like magic, making the old monk in the photo move his mouth according to the voice, giving the illusion that he is really speaking.
Step 4: Publish online and earn money (operation and monetization)
Upload the finished video to Instagram or TikTok.
Once there are enough viewers, you can place a link on your personal profile to sell some "cultivating the mind" e-books, or wait for the platform to reward you.
Case Review
This case is a typical example of **"technology + cultural difference"** success. It cleverly captures Western audiences' fascination with "Eastern mystical wisdom" and modern people's common anxieties.
Core Advantage: The irreplaceability and trustworthiness of the character. Compared to ordinary text-based accounts, a lifelike elder image can more effectively create an emotional connection with users.
Commercial Value: The content creation process has been highly standardized (SOP) and is easy to scale. As long as you master the aesthetic style and writing logic, you can quickly launch multiple matrix accounts.
