Running individual official accounts on social-networking app WeChat has become a new channel for Chinese people to express themselves, according to a survey.
At present, many media organizations, companies and individuals in China have launched official accounts on WeChat, making efforts to attract more subscribers to expand their reach. Over 66 percent of 2,001 respondents said they were willing to set up individual official accounts while 27.2 percent said they had already started such accounts.
The survey, published by the China Youth Daily, also said expressing feelings and views, as well as gaining popularity, was the top reasons why people wanted individual official accounts. More than half of individual official accounts offered content concerning personal views and feelings, as well as entertainment and recreation information, the survey said.
Of more than 540 respondents that have individual official accounts on WeChat, 5 percent claimed that they had built popular 'self-media' brands using the accounts, while 12.2 percent said they had made money from the accounts through advertising. Meanwhile, 42 percent said their accounts had limited influence with only a few subscribers.

【答案】Possible version 1:
An increasing number of Chinese people are setting up individual official WeChat accounts with the aim of expressing themselves and gaining popularity. So far, only a minority of them have successfully built popular 'self-media' brands.
From my perspective, I’m in strong favor of setting up an individual official account on WeChat. To begin with, as a way to sell ideas to others, there is no denying that it’s an excellent tool for self-promotion, by which we can increase our personal impact on social life. Additionally, such an account offers a good chance to make friends with many like-minded people, with whom we can share opinions and enjoy cooperation. Without effective cooperation, we could not achieve real success in current society.
To summarize, only when we take advantage of an individual official account appropriately can we make it a great helper in our social life.
Possible version 2:
An increasing number of Chinese people are setting up individual official WeChat accounts with the aim of expressing themselves and gaining popularity. So far, only a minority of them have successfully built popular 'self-media' brands.
Evident as the advantages of setting up personal WeChat account are, I opt for an objection to such practice. First and foremost, WeChat account is designed as a platform for individuals to voice their personal opinions and express their emotions. However, with the intention of expanding their popularity and earning money, some people post remarks encouraging hatred and violence, depressing outlook and even vicious videos, which will tremendously exert negative impact on its subscribers and social stability. What's worse, in order to maintain his account's popularity, one must set aside much time and energy, thus inevitably affecting one's work and life.
In short, to limit the drawbacks of setting up WeChat account to a minimum, we should take cautious attitude.
