In the video, four men in suits stood respectfully in front of a desk.
On the desk was a simple tea set.
The first man stepped forward and demonstrated his skills in skimming the foam, rubbing the tea leaves, and shaking the tea leaves to release the aroma.
To project an elegant image, he even used one hand to make a gentlemanly gesture.
However, his tea-making skills were truly terrible.
Especially when shaking the teacup, the waste water inside was shaken out, and my hand was badly burned.
The first man was burned and took two steps back, while the second man quickly ran forward to take over.
If you think this second person has good tea skills, then you are very wrong.
All I could hear was the man shouting "Let's go out to sea!" and then frantically pouring the tea from his teacup into the teapot.
However, because the teacup was too hot, the tea and water were poured directly into the teapot.
Not only that, even the tea lid had fallen into the teapot, and the teacup had fallen back onto the table.
That wasn't the end of it. Without thinking, the second man reached into the teapot, trying to scoop out the tea leaves.
As expected, he was scalded by the steam and had to retreat back to where he started.
Immediately afterwards, a third man rushed over and reached into the teapot with his hands, enduring the heat to retrieve the tea lid.
Then, while chanting "Zhanming," he used his hand to grab the remaining tea leaves from the teacup and place them on the lid.
Throughout this process, there was a constant hissing sound, which burned him quite badly.
The fourth man followed the actions of the first three, rushing quickly to the desk and then using his hand to grab the tea leaves from the lid and put them back into the teacup.
Compared to his companions, he was burned much less.
Just when Qin Zi'an and Minister Zhang thought that this absurd viral video was over...
The video's progress bar told them that things weren't that simple.
Then, the fourth man lifted the teapot and was about to pour water into the teacup.
The man sitting in the boss's chair waved his hand repeatedly, forcing him to stop pouring tea.
Just then, a girl in a suit walked in hurriedly, carrying a large bucket of iced tea.
Without thinking, she poured the iced tea into the teacup, but because her hand was shaking, a lot of it spilled out.
The owner didn't pay attention to these small details, but picked up the teacup and drank the iced tea in one gulp.
"Mmm, good tea, good tea!"
This concludes the absurd prank video.
Qin Zi'an and Minister Zhang exchanged a glance, both looking incredibly embarrassed.
Simply because the caption of the video included them all, and even tagged them.
"Director Qin, the assignment is ready! Please review it! @Qin Zian Fujian tea art is excellent, Fujian tea is fragrant, thank you for this gift from Fujian. @Fujian Culture and Tourism Bureau"
Minister Zhang looked at the text below the video, a look of mixed emotions on his face.
While the technical skill required for tea ceremony in Fujian is indeed quite high, it shouldn't be this difficult.
It's obvious that this person is just messing around.
Minister Zhang sighed and asked softly, "Zi'an, what... what are we going to do about this?!"
Look at this video, it's forced Minister Zhang to start speaking Northeastern dialect.
Compared to Minister Zhang's utterly humiliated performance, Qin Zi'an was in much better shape.
He opened the comments section directly and left a comment below.
"A beginner-level Fujian tea ceremony tutorial, friends from all over the country are welcome to come and learn and appreciate it."
Qin Zian did not say things like "You did a good job soaking it, don't do it again next time," but instead adopted an encouraging approach to education.
After commenting, Qin Zian did not immediately scroll down the video, but continued to read the comments below.
Although the video content was outrageous, it's easy to see that netizens quickly responded.
After all, they could have burned only one person at a time, but now they burned four people at once.
Double the fun!
Just as Qin Zian was about to quit Douyin, he saw many netizens commenting on his posts.
Some people were excited that the real person had appeared, while others were asking Qin Zi'an why he called this video a beginner-level Fujian tea ceremony tutorial.
Qin Zi'an did not shy away from this and gave a direct answer.
"It's like entering the gates of hell."
This reply caused netizens to burst into laughter, all amused by Qin Zi'an's humor.
Meanwhile, thanks to Qin Zian's popularity, the video went viral across the internet.
As a result, more and more netizens joined this competition of Fujian tea art.
Some people are creating fun content, some are explaining things, and some are studying hard...
In addition, many netizens bought tea and teaware from Fujian overnight, wanting to experience tea culture more deeply.
In any case, the tea culture of Fujian has entered the public eye and played an excellent role in promotion.
Meanwhile, Qin Zian had finished his busy work and was heading to his lodgings with Minister Zhang.
Minister Zhang himself is from Fujian, and his home is only an hour's drive from the site of the Fudi Parade.
Therefore, Minister Zhang did not arrange a hotel for Qin Zi'an, but instead took him directly back to his hometown.
Although Minister Zhang's hometown is in the countryside, the surrounding environment is completely different from the mud-brick houses in the countryside that I had in mind.
As far as the eye can see, there are rows and rows of small rural villas.
Not only are all the villas three stories high, but the exterior decoration is also quite nice.
Reliefs, Roman columns, large French windows...
The main decoration style is Western, and each one is magnificent.
This is not an isolated case; it's the case on the entire street.
If Minister Zhang hadn't mentioned going to his rural hometown, Qin Zi'an would have almost thought he had entered a wealthy neighborhood.
However, Qin Zian's first thought was not to shock the rural areas of Fujian with his villas, but rather that it was a great publicity stunt.
Therefore, Qin Zian also took out his phone and casually took a picture of the villa building outside the window.
"Minister Zhang, we were supposed to go to your rural hometown, but here we're all villas!"
