Just as the "heroic deeds" of local cultural and tourism bureau chiefs were being widely circulated, major official media outlets also jumped in to comment.

The first to respond was the official account of the Yuzhou Culture and Tourism Bureau, whose editor admitted to accidentally forwarding the video to their own director.

Completing 100 college entrance exam papers in one night, or aiming for a score of 700 on the college entrance exam—those are all within reach.

But in any case, this was just an official account's prank, and none of the directors of the cultural and tourism bureaus actually stepped forward to challenge them.

Only Director Li of the Ganzhou Culture and Tourism Bureau was truly honest. That very evening, he took on the challenge of "eating ten bowls of Ganzhou rice noodles in one go" and posted the challenge video on the official account of the Ganzhou Culture and Tourism Bureau.

As soon as the video starts, you can see ten bowls of Ganzhou rice noodles lined up in front of Director Li.

It is well known that people from Ganzhou are the most tolerant of spicy food, and Ganzhou rice noodles are also quite spicy.

The background music in the video is also quite intense, featuring the catchy, repetitive jingle "Give me some spicy food, give me some spicy food."

Accompanied by rousing music, Director Li pulled out a large washbasin and showed it off.

Each bowl of rice noodles looks small, but when piled up in a basin, it becomes an extremely large portion.

Encouraged by the catchy tune of "Give Me Some Spicy Food," Director Li kept stuffing rice noodles into his mouth.

However, the amount of rice noodles was simply too much.

Even though Director Li had eaten a lot, the rice noodles in the bowl still looked unchanged.

Seeing this, Director Li could only cover his face and surrender.

"Challenge failed." Director Li looked at the camera with a look of utter despair and said helplessly, "Let's try another project."

As the video was released, netizens were shocked by Director Li's swift action.

Everyone knew this was just a prank, and no one expected the bureau chief to take on the challenge.

After all, they are not Qin Zi'an, and the chances of them successfully pulling off a stunt are almost zero.

It's just a lie he made up to boost his hometown's ranking.

Faced with the honesty of the director of the Ganzhou Culture and Tourism Bureau, netizens responded with impressive data.

"Are the people of Ganzhou really this honest? They let the bureau chief show off his rice noodles and he really did. The key point is... these rice noodles look so delicious, I'm even thinking of going to Ganzhou for tourism."

"Some netizens reminded our director to drink water to relieve the spiciness, but you should know that he might die from overeating before he dies from the spiciness. Don't eat too much rice noodles in Ganzhou, and if you do, don't chug water, or your stomach will explode. Welcome everyone to visit Ganzhou, where we have beautiful mountains, clear water, and delicious chili peppers."

"I've already bought my ticket to Ganzhou. I'm also going to try Xuanmifen (a type of rice noodle). The rice noodles that the bureau chief uses must be especially delicious!!! What other good food is there in Ganzhou? Could a local friend please give me a guide?"

"This bureau chief is really capable; he really takes on challenges! And he's a really good person; even after failing, he wanted to try a different project. I heard people from Ganzhou can fly on swords; I want to see that!!!"

“@Xiangdi Culture and Tourism Bureau Official Account Bao, look at the director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau, how down-to-earth and genuine he is! Quickly invite our director out to perform a Xiangxi corpse-driving demonstration for everyone.”

Before long, the video went viral and became a trending topic, making the battle between the bureau chiefs even more intense.

Netizens from all over the country couldn't contain their wild ideas, completely disregarding the fate of their own bureau chiefs.

Looking at their crazy appearance, they seemed to be saying, "My bureau chief dares to eat shit, would your bureau chief dare to?" Their mental state was truly beautiful to the extreme.

Compared to the domestic public opinion environment, the international public opinion environment is much more normal.

Within China, the focus was more on the approachable behavior of the director of the Culture and Tourism Bureau performing a lively dance, while internationally, people were thoroughly shocked by the "Katyusha" disco performance.

Not only netizens from former Soviet countries, but also from Europe and the United States, were quite envious, praising themselves for experiencing the lively atmosphere of Harbin.

"Oh my god! The atmosphere here was so amazing! Thank you for bringing me to the warm and welcoming Ice City. Once I've saved up enough money, I'm definitely going to Ice City to have a good time. My fellow countrymen, wait for me!"

"I knew about the Ice and Snow Festival in Harbin when the July 3rd Evidence Exhibition Hall became a hit, but I never expected it to be so big. Ten thousand people dancing, that's amazing."

"Hurrah! Ice City is a winter wonderland. I can't even imagine how happy I would be if I were invited to dance on stage. Participating in the 'Katyusha' dance party in Ice City will become my dream, and I hope it can come true soon."

"I heard that Qin Zi'an is the host of this clubbing event, and he even invited high-ranking officials from China to join in. Given my love for Qin Zi'an, I'll go no matter how expensive the plane ticket is."

"My DNA is pounding wildly, and I'm already singing along to the music. I think this must be the national cohesion that Qin Zi'an has been talking about. Enough said, I'm going to buy tickets to Harbin right now. I want to go to the 10,000-person rave, I want to see the beautiful scenery of Harbin, and I want to visit the July 3rd Crime Evidence Exhibition Hall."

The sudden popularity of Harbin is not only open to China, but also visible to the whole world.

After the long lines outside the July 3rd Crime Evidence Exhibition Hall went viral online, foreign netizens began to see the city of Harbin.

However, many people's understanding of Harbin is limited to the July 3rd Crime Museum, and they only focus on the crimes committed by Japan.

It wasn't until the massive rave scene at the Ice and Snow World, where thousands danced to "Katyusha," that foreign netizens got a glimpse of the lively side of Harbin.

The event was so large, and the atmosphere was incredibly exciting.

The friendliness of the people of the Dragon Kingdom, the various beautiful ice sculptures, and their understanding and respect for foreign cultures...

These events have left a deep impression on foreign netizens and inspired them to visit Harbin.

Just as everyone's desire to travel to the Dragon Kingdom reached its peak, an unusual picture of the Ice City suddenly appeared on the trending searches and was seen by foreign netizens.
