Given a video topic or script, pick the right hook type by scenario, then draft the first 1-3 sentences using that type's template. This skill answers "用哪种钩子"; dbs-hook answers "这个钩子好不好"。两者配合：先用本 skill 定型，再用 dbs-hook 诊断打磨。
Given a video topic or script, choose the right hook type for the scenario, then draft the first 1–3 sentences using that type’s template. This skill answers “Which hook should I use?”; dbs-hook answers “Is this hook good?” Use them together: first use this skill to determine the type, then use dbs-hook to diagnose and refine it.
元原则（先于一切类型）
Meta-Principles (Ahead of All Types)
- 钩子定带入，不定生死。开头最大的作用是让观众快速代入，真正能影响流量的是内容本身的质量。
- 哗众取宠的钩子本质是欺骗观众。悬念可以留，承诺必须兑现。
- 每种类型都有前提条件，前提不满足时该类型直接作废，换类型，不要硬套。
- A hook establishes how viewers enter the story; it does not determine success or failure. The opening’s biggest job is to immerse viewers quickly. What truly drives traffic is the quality of the content itself.
- A sensational hook is essentially deception. Suspense can be maintained, but promises must be fulfilled.
- Every type has prerequisites. If they are not met, that type is invalid; switch types rather than forcing a fit.
场景归类：按钩子的支点分三大类
Scenario Classification: Three Categories Based on the Hook’s Anchor
| 大类 | 支点 | 类型 | 典型场景 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 挂在内容上 | 内容本身够硬 | ① 内容预告 ② 价值包装 | 干货教程、稀缺体验、实操演示 |
| 挂在观众身上 | 观众自身状态 | ③ 现象前置 ④ 直击痛点 ⑤ 喊话观众 | 共鸣日常、垂类/带货、互动挑战 |
| 挂在事件上 | 一件具体的事 | ⑥ 事件开场 ⑦ 话题开场 | 故事叙事、观点讨论 |
| Major Category | Anchor | Type | Typical Scenarios |
|---|---|---|---|
| Content-anchored | The content itself is compelling | ① Content Preview ② Value Packaging | Knowledge-based tutorials, rare experiences, hands-on demonstrations |
| Audience-anchored | The viewer’s own state | ③ Phenomenon First ④ Pain-Point Strike ⑤ Direct Address | Relatable everyday content, niche/e-commerce content, interactive challenges |
| Event-anchored | A specific incident | ⑥ Event Opening ⑦ Topic Opening | Story-driven narratives, opinion discussions |
决策流程
Decision Flow
问一个问题：这条视频最硬的东西是什么？ 按顺序排除：
- 内容本身稀缺/反差（罕见体验、特殊身份、反常识组合）→ ① 内容预告
- 能一句话说清观众看完能得到什么 → ② 价值包装
- 观众有一个"我也这样"的共性窘境 → ③ 现象前置
- 观众有一个明确、自知、想解决的痛 → ④ 直击痛点
- 需要观众立刻动手/动脑参与 → ⑤ 喊话观众
- 手里有一件带冲突的真事 → ⑥ 事件开场
- 有一个能引战/引讨论的问题 → ⑦ 话题开场
都不满足？先回去补内容，不是补开头。
组合规则：一条钩子只选一个主类型，最多叠加一个辅助（常见：痛点 + 价值包装、事件 + 话题）。三个以上必然稀释。
Ask one question: What is the strongest element of this video? Eliminate options in the following order:
- The content itself is rare or contains a striking contrast (a rare experience, special identity, or counterintuitive combination) → ① Content Preview
- What the viewer will gain can be clearly stated in one sentence → ② Value Packaging
- The viewer has a shared “I experience this too” predicament → ③ Phenomenon First
- The viewer has a clear, self-recognized problem they want to solve → ④ Pain-Point Strike
- The viewer needs to act or think immediately to participate → ⑤ Direct Address
- You have a real incident that involves conflict → ⑥ Event Opening
- You have a question likely to provoke debate or discussion → ⑦ Topic Opening
If none of these apply, go back and strengthen the content—not the opening.
Combination rule: Use only one primary hook type and add at most one supporting type (common combinations: Pain-Point Strike + Value Packaging, Event Opening + Topic Opening). Using three or more types will inevitably dilute the hook.
七种钩子类型详解
Detailed Guide to the Seven Hook Types
① 内容预告
① Content Preview
- 一句话概括本条视频最大看点。
- 前提：内容本身具备稀缺性。没有稀缺性时，把全片最精彩的片段/结论前置，达到同样效果。
- 模板：「（稀缺身份/反差组合）+（要做的事）」或「（最精彩结论前置），这条视频告诉你怎么做到的」
- 例：「47岁女生和小外甥去网吧的一天」「你的大学同学是一个54岁的阿姨，是一种怎样的体验」
- 常见错误：内容平平还硬做预告，观众看完正片觉得被骗 → 掉完播。
- Summarize the video’s biggest highlight in one sentence.
- Prerequisite: The content must itself be distinctive or scarce. If it is not, front-load the most exciting clip or conclusion to achieve the same effect.
- Templates: “(Rare identity/contrast combination) + (thing to be done)” or “(Most exciting conclusion front-loaded)—this video shows you how to do it”
- Examples: “A 47-year-old woman and her nephew’s day at an internet cafe” or “What is it like to find out that your college classmate is a 54-year-old auntie?”
- Common mistake: The content is mediocre, but the creator forces a preview, so viewers feel deceived after watching the main video and the completion rate drops.
② 价值包装
② Value Packaging
- 开头就给足价值感，对抗瀑布流里没耐心的观众。
- 前提：收益必须能一句话说清，且正片兑现。
- 模板：「看完这条视频，你就能（具体收益）」/「为了（普遍目标），我们把（常见事物）爆改成了（意外形态）」
- 例：「看完这条视频，你就能无痛把盐戒掉」「为了让大家多喝水，我们把茶水间爆改成了游戏厅」
- 常见错误：价值承诺模糊（"看完收获很大"）= 没承诺。
- Give viewers a strong sense of value immediately to counter the impatience of viewers scrolling through a feed.
- Prerequisite: The benefit must be expressible in one sentence and delivered on in the main video.
- Templates: “After watching this video, you will be able to (specific benefit)” / “To (common goal), we transformed (everyday thing) into (unexpected form)”
- Examples: “After watching this video, you will be able to cut back on salt without struggle” / “To encourage everyone to drink more water, we transformed the tea room into an arcade”
- Common mistake: A vague value promise (“You’ll gain a lot from watching”) is no promise at all.
③ 现象前置
③ Phenomenon First
- 把一个普遍现象放在开头，提升代入感，降低观众进入视频的成本。
- 前提：现象足够普遍，最好是"人间真实"级别。
- 模板：「不知道大家是不是跟我一样，（共性窘境细节）」
- 例：「每次出差或放假回家，行李箱就一直躺在房间里，根本不愿意收拾」「睡醒就刷短视频，一刷两小时」
- 常见错误：现象不够普遍，变成自说自话。
- Lead with a common phenomenon to increase relatability and lower the cost of getting viewers into the video.
- Prerequisite: The phenomenon must be sufficiently common, ideally universally relatable.
- Template: “Does anyone else feel the same as me when (details of a shared predicament)?”
- Examples: “Every time I go on a business trip or come home for a holiday, my suitcase just stays unpacked in the room, and I always put off packing it” / “I wake up and scroll through short-form videos; once I start, two hours are gone”
- Common mistake: The phenomenon is not common enough, so the opening becomes self-directed monologue.
④ 直击痛点
④ Pain-Point Strike
- 痛点观众观看欲望最强，是最适合做开头的类型之一，尤其适合垂类账号（能直接激发消费需求）。
- 前提：痛点真实、具体、观众自知。
- 模板：「为什么你（努力了）却（得不到结果）」/「（痛点场景的具体尴尬瞬间）」
- 例：「为什么你朋友能力没你强，赚得比你多」「养猫会掉毛、减肥不掉秤，都是痛点」
- 常见错误：痛点是博主以为的，不是观众自认的。
- Pain points create the strongest desire to watch and are among the best opening types, especially for niche accounts, where they can directly stimulate consumer demand.
- Prerequisite: The pain point must be real, specific, and recognized by the audience.
- Templates: “Why do you (make an effort) but still (fail to get the result)?” / “(The specific awkward moment in a painful scenario)”
- Examples: “Why is your friend less capable than you but earns more?” / “Shedding from cats and no weight loss while dieting are both pain points”
- Common mistake: The pain point is assumed by the creator, not recognized by the audience.
⑤ 喊话观众
⑤ Direct Address
- 99% 的人刷短视频时不会主动思考，开头要主动发起互动，既拉探索欲也养粉丝粘性。
- 前提：指令具体、动作成本低、3 秒内能做。
- 模板：「如果你今年（身份/状态），（动作指令）」/「给你3秒钟想一下（具体问题），3、2、1」
- 例：「给你3秒钟想一下怎么在抖音上卖鸡」「接受粉丝的挑战」
- 常见错误：指令空泛（"评论区告诉我你的想法"），观众无感。
- When scrolling through short-form videos, 99% of people do not think proactively, so the opening must initiate interaction, sparking curiosity while building audience loyalty.
- Prerequisite: The instruction must be specific, require little effort, and be doable within 3 seconds.
- Templates: “If you are (identity/status) this year, (action instruction)” / “I’ll give you 3 seconds to think about (specific question). 3, 2, 1”
- Examples: “I’ll give you 3 seconds to think about how to sell chicken on Douyin” / “Taking on a challenge from your fans”
- Common mistake: The instruction is vague (“Tell me your thoughts in the comments”), so the audience feels nothing.
⑥ 事件开场
⑥ Event Opening
- 开头直接交代发生了一件事。
- 前提：事件必须带冲突。平铺直叙的事 = 流水账。
- 模板：「那天我（突发事件）」
- 例：「那天我出了车祸」「那天我偷拿了别人的东西，被抓个正着」
- 常见错误：事件无冲突，观众等不到张力就划走。
- State right away that something happened.
- Prerequisite: The incident must involve conflict. A straightforward event is just a chronological account.
- Template: “That day, I (unexpected event)”
- Examples: “That day, I got into a car accident” / “That day, I stole someone else’s belongings and was caught red-handed”
- Common mistake: The incident contains no conflict, so viewers swipe away before any tension develops.
⑦ 话题开场
⑦ Topic Opening
- 开头抛出一个能让更多网友参与表达的话题。绝大多数视频拍成流水账，本质是自说自话、没给观众参与空间。
- 前提：话题人人有立场、有话说。
- 模板：「（一个普通人/某类人）怎样才能（争议性目标）」/「你（某种隐秘心理）过吗」
- 例：「一个普通人怎样才能从零做到年入30万」「你嫉妒过自己的朋友吗」
- 常见错误：话题有标准答案，讨论空间为零。
- Open with a topic that gives more viewers a chance to express an opinion. Most videos become run-on accounts with no space for audience participation—essentially self-talk.
- Prerequisite: Everyone should have a stance or something to say about the topic.
- Templates: “How can (an ordinary person/a particular group) (controversial goal)?” / “Have you ever felt (a hidden emotion)?”
- Examples: “How can an ordinary person go from zero to earning 300,000 a year?” / “Have you ever envied your own friends?”
- Common mistake: The topic has a standard answer, leaving no room for discussion.

- 洗稿（ra-洗稿）时：先按决策流程为改写稿选定主开头类型，再进 dbs-hook 诊断前 5 秒。
- 选题深化时：可在选题卡上标注候选钩子类型，作为立项时形态判断的参考（强痛点题材更适合垂类短视频，强话题题材更适合观点口播）。
- 本账号主力赛道（AI 实操教程）：默认优先 ② 价值包装 和 ④ 直击痛点；纯观点口播优先 ⑦ 话题开场 和 ③ 现象前置。
- When rewriting with ra-洗稿: first choose the primary opening type for the rewritten draft using the decision flow, then use dbs-hook to diagnose the first 5 seconds.
- When developing a topic: you can mark candidate hook types on the topic card as a reference for evaluating the format at project kickoff (topics with strong pain points work better for niche short-form videos; topics with strong debate potential work better for opinion-based spoken commentary).
- This account’s main niche (AI hands-on tutorials): default to ② Value Packaging and ④ Pain-Point Strike; for pure opinion commentary, prioritize ⑦ Topic Opening and ③ Phenomenon First.
