Wang Jianye was incredibly excited when he heard that the novel-themed tourist attractions in Harbin could be developed without attracting investment.
But Wang Jianye's first thought wasn't about the tourist attractions in the novel, but rather about the strength of the Harbin Culture and Tourism Bureau.
After all, Qin Zian had already made it very clear that the Harbin Culture and Tourism Bureau could develop it on its own.
In Wang Jianye's view, this was Qin Zi'an's greatest recognition of him as the director and of the Harbin Culture and Tourism Bureau.
Although Wang Jianye was very happy and proud, he still tried to remain calm and used a humble tone to teach Qin Zi'an.
“Zi’an, I know that our Harbin Culture and Tourism Bureau is now the most well-known culture and tourism bureau in the country, but we still need to keep a low profile. Director Liu hasn’t gone far yet. If he hears this, he won’t be happy.”
"Old Wang, what are you saying?" Qin Zian scratched his head in surprise and said without thinking, "In our Ice City, Ningguta is the only one that's really well-known. This thing... what's so uncomfortable about Director Liu?"
"You're still too young."
Director Wang shook his head and earnestly reasoned with Qin Zi'an.
“Zi’an, think about it, even building a Heavenly Palace on the Clouds in Jidi is a struggle. But it’s different for our Bingcheng Culture and Tourism Bureau to build Jianning Ancient Pagoda. We can do it ourselves.”
When Qin Zi'an heard Director Wang's words, he couldn't help but fall silent.
To be fair, the Heavenly Palace in the Clouds and Ningguta are simply incomparable.
But this can't be blamed on Wang Jianye. After all, he really doesn't understand those novels and TV dramas, and he actually thought that the construction of tourist attractions in novels was as grand as the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds.
Qin Zian didn't argue with Wang Jianye much. Instead, he took Wang Jianye's phone and searched for the keyword 'Ningguta'.
"Old Wang, take a good look at this yourself. I'm going to get busy now; I still need to find some time to think about the Spring Festival plans."
After saying this, Qin Zian shoved the phone back into Wang Jianye's hand and strode away.
Wang Jianye shook his head helplessly as Qin Zian walked away with such a carefree air.
Who told them to be the top salesperson? They certainly have the confidence to be arrogant.
"That kid is really something, not even helping Bingcheng think of a proper way to develop Ningguta. I think Lao Liu's design is pretty good, our Bingcheng Ningguta is worthy of it..."
As Wang Jianye was speaking, he suddenly froze, as if he had lost his voice.
For no other reason than that he saw the introduction to Ningguta.
"Ningguta is bitterly cold. My parents are already old; how could they endure such suffering?"
It wasn't until he saw this passage that Wang Jianye realized that Ningguta, which Qin Zian was referring to, was a place of exile during the Qing Dynasty, a neighboring city of Harbin, and not a fictional location from a novel.
Subconsciously, a sentence popped into Wang Jianye's mind.
I'd rather go to the Yellow Springs than go to Ningguta.
This shows that Ningguta is a living hell, and no one wants to set foot there.
So it goes without saying that tourists would be encouraged to visit Ningguta.
Just as Wang Jianye was thinking about this, he immediately refuted his own idea.
"Why not? Zian's recent promotional plans have all taken an unconventional approach, focusing on surprising tourists. I think the Ningguta project is quite good. So many people go to Yuzhou to experience a time-travel journey, which shows that there is still a market for ancient-style replicas."
"Putting everything else aside, who in the entire country has ever experienced the feeling of exile? When tourists come to Ningguta, each person is given a steamed bun and a bowl of cold water, and they stay there overnight."
"Tsk tsk tsk!" Wang Jianye clapped his hands, unable to suppress his smile. "Old Wang, you're simply a genius! No wonder you're the director of the Ice City Culture and Tourism Bureau, the most famous culture and tourism bureau director in the country."
Without hesitation, Wang Jianye immediately contacted the Culture and Tourism Bureau of Mudan City, where Ningguta is located.
With such a good publicity plan, it will definitely drive the development of surrounding cities.
And so Wang Jianye got to work with great enthusiasm, determined to make Ningguta a famous tourist attraction.
...
Three hours later, a video suddenly appeared on the trending topics list of major social media platforms and climbed rapidly.
The topic's entry is also very simple and clear, directly pointing out the main content.
Are you kidding me?! Ningguta has applied to fight too?!
For most netizens, the name Ningguta is not unfamiliar; in fact, it is a place they are very familiar with.
Especially those "experts on Zhen", they can talk about Ningguta with great expertise.
The recent heavy snowfall in Northeast China completely redeemed Prince Guo, allowing netizens to see his genuine affection for Zhen Huan.
Ningguta is bitterly cold, but my Yunli said it was on the way from Yanjing to Ningguta.
Therefore, one netizen after another clicked in out of curiosity.
But soon, one by one they came out with surprised expressions, as if they had been greatly frightened.
Everyone thought Ningguta would give them a unique surprise for publicity purposes, but instead they were given the same shock as before.
The video shows two elderly men, nearing fifty, standing next to the stone tablet of "Ningguta".
These two old men are not ordinary people either. One is Wang Jianye from the Harbin Culture and Tourism Bureau, and the other is Director Zhou from the Mudancheng Culture and Tourism Bureau.
Wang Jianye was the first to extend a hand, pointing to the Ningguta stele next to him.
"Dear little golden beans."
No sooner had Wang Jianye finished his resounding recitation than Director Zhou immediately raised his hand in agreement.
"Ningguta requests to participate in the competition."
The two of them just started by exchanging words and phrases, which had already scared netizens half to death.
No one could have imagined that the two bureau chiefs would team up and pull off such a prank.
The video is only just beginning.
Wang Jianye cleared his throat and continued reciting aloud.
"Six hundred li east of Harbin, a 1.5-hour drive, we will be exiled together to Ningguta."
Director Zhou clenched his fist and passionately echoed, "This is the place where Zhen Huan's family was exiled, the place where the first seed in the Great Northern Wilderness sprouted, and the snowy forest of the Battle of Tiger Mountain. This is the Snow City of Peony in the Dragon Kingdom."
"A steamed bun and a bowl of cold water will give you the ultimate exile experience," Wang Jianye said.
"Taking on ten Siberian tigers at once goes viral online, but don't forget that there are also black bears in Ningguta waiting for your call."
And so, Wang Jianye and Director Zhou each delivered one line of these simple and unadorned promotional slogans.
At the end of the video, the two looked at each other and spoke passionately and freely.
"We sincerely invite all the little golden beans from all over the country to visit Ningguta and experience the unique Ningguta."
