微信三件套

Meaning:

Translated literally as “WeChat three-piece,” this Chinese term refers to a user’s WeChat name, profile picture, and Moments cover photo. With the ubiquitous presence of social media, especially the all-in-one platform WeChat, people have adopted the “WeChat three-piece” as a virtual calling card, shaping others’ initial impressions. It is intriguing to observe that some Gen Zers opt for their real name accompanied by a vacant profile picture, signaling a disinterest in social interactions.

Example:

A: 我看到一个人的微信三件套就能猜出他的大概年龄。

Wǒ kàndào yī gè rén de wēixìn sānjiàntào jiù néng cāichū tā de dàgài niánlíng。

By observing a person’s WeChat name, profile, and Moments cover, I can infer their age.

B: 怎么讲？

Zěnmejiǎng？

How?

A: 比如微信头像是山水风景的基本上是中年人。

Bǐrú wēixìn tóuxiàng shì shānshuǐ fēngjǐng de jīběnshàng shì zhōngniánrén。

For instance, if a landscape photo serves as their profile picture, it is likely that the person is of middle age.
