I made a Chinese-style picture last night, and some friends like it. It’s not really a tutorial. I just wrote down the steps I took to make this picture (while I can still remember it, haha) for your friends’ reference.
Original picture (from "Squid Ashore" next door, thank you very much. If there is anything wrong, please tell me and I will delete it immediately):
Effect:
What follows are the steps in as much detail as possible
1) Open the original image, copy one layer, and use PS’s built-in “Extract” filter to extract the people in the image for later use (I won’t go into detail about cutting out the image).
Note: This method doesn’t matter. It depends on personal preference. In short, just dig out people.

2) Create a new file of any size. At that time, I had a width of 450 x a height of 800 pixels, 72dpi, and a white background (I was criticized by Lao Ma, so I wrote it in more detail)
3) Duplicate the background twice so there are three layers.
4) Set the foreground color to black, the background color to dark red, and pull up the gradient on the background layer (the bottom layer).
Note: Basically, you can do whatever you want. I used the picture below. The first gradient mode is "normal", and the second and third mode is "overlay".
5) On the background layer copy, execute "Render--Fiber", set the data as you like, and then change the blending mode of this layer to "Overlay"
