Simon: Adsense was not available in Asia for two years and we were making videos. So we were just making videos

西蒙：Adsense在亞洲有兩年時間沒有使用，我們在做視頻。所以我們只是在做視頻

Because we enjoyed making videos. It was fun

因為我們喜歡做視頻。這很有趣

We didn't go into YouTube to think that we're gonna make a career out of this.

我們進入YouTube並不是想以此為職業的。

We just had a quirky little hobby

我們只是有一個古怪的小愛好。

We were doing this to connect with our families

我們這樣做是為了和家人聯繫

and we were doing this also to connect with a lot of the community of people that were moving to Korea as

我們這樣做也是為了與很多社區的人聯繫起來，是移動到韓國作為。

Teachers a lot of our first videos are about like how to use your washing machine

老師們，我們的第一個視頻很多都是關於如何使用你的洗衣機之類的

How to make lesson plans

如何製作教案

How to, like, throw out your recycling

如何，像，扔掉你的回收

So, you might remember a couple of videos ago, we showed you our brand new super cool cellphones

所以，你可能還記得幾個視頻前，我們向你展示了我們全新的超酷手機。

Hi guys, I'm a T-money card

小夥伴們，你們好，我是T-money卡。

So, this acts as a re-loadable card for the subway, or the bus

所以，這就像一張地鐵或公車的儲值卡

And people have told us that it also works for a few taxis

而且人們告訴我們，它對一些計程車也是有效的

So, this box is going to be right here, and right here

所以，這個盒子要在這裡，就在這裡。

So back then it wasn't like a business idea was just for fun

所以那時候的創業想法也不是說說而已，只是為了好玩而已

What I was gonna say was not only was it not a business idea

我想說的是，這不僅不是一個商業想法。

It wasn't like a "hmm maybe in the future we could make money" because it wasn't even like an inkling of possibility.

這不像是 "嗯也許未來我們可以賺錢"，因為這根本不像是一絲可能。

So like nowadays, I think a lot of people that will join YouTube will go "this could be a career"

所以就像現在一樣，我想很多人會加入YouTube，會說 "這可能是一個職業"

Like, "maybe if I try hard enough or I work hard enough this could be a career"

就像，"也許如果我足夠努力，或者我努力工作，這可能是一個職業"

and then as things start getting rolling for them

然後，當他們的事情開始滾動

it's kind of like starting a part-time job and then maybe one day ad-pocalypse happens and then you're like

這有點像開始一個兼職工作，然後 也許有一天廣告啟示發生，然後你就像

Furious because what you've been paid has suddenly changed but for us we're like, "is it better than getting paid nothing for two years?"

憤怒是因為你的工資突然變了，但對我們來說，"這比兩年什麼都沒有好嗎？"

For real, anyone that's complaining about demonetization. You haven't gone two years with zero dollars

說真的，任何一個抱怨貨幣化的人。你還沒有走了兩年零美元。

So yes

所以是的

Demonetization is an issue for a lot of people but for us we will always remember those

非貨幣化對很多人來說是一個問題，但對我們來說，我們將永遠記住那些。

Hungry, hungry 2 years that we had. Nothing will feel as bad as that time

餓，餓了2年，我們有。沒有什麼會比那時候更糟糕的感覺了

Simon & Martina: Fun fact!

西蒙和瑪蒂娜：有趣的事實!

Did you know that we used to make our own music from scratch because there were no YouTube library

你知道嗎，我們曾經從頭開始做我們自己的音樂，因為沒有YouTube的資料庫。

Yup

是啊

Currently we pay for academic sound which is why our music library has changed a lot because we're actually paying for like incredible artists

目前我們為學術聲音付費，這也是為什麼我們的音樂庫發生了很大的變化，因為我們實際上是在為像不可思議的藝術家付費。

Yes, the music's a lot better quality than what we used to make on our own. So we started using GarageBand Martina had a little keyboard, as she would

是的，音樂的品質比我們以前自己做的要好很多。所以我們開始使用GarageBand Martina有一個小鍵盤，因為她會... ...

從2012年2月到去日本之前，我們也很少或沒有引進韓國獨立音樂。

During the Korean indie playlist and then later on during Martinez mixtapes
