"Qin Zian, what do you take the Harbin Culture and Tourism Bureau for? Is it your playground to fulfill your dreams?"
"That's right! He said he was making a promotional video for Harbin, but actually he just wanted to make a music video for his own purposes."
“I’ve said it before, what we need to recruit are publicity talents. Even if you bring in celebrities through special procedures and they generate some buzz, that’s just a temporary fix.”
"Xiao Qin's idea is actually quite good. Shooting promotional videos can indeed showcase the beauty of our Ice City in a comprehensive way."
"It's not like we haven't filmed promotional videos before, but when have they ever been effective? If you ask me, Qin Zi'an should just post a few promotional updates; there's no need to make things so complicated."
The meeting room was filled with lively discussion as attendees shared their thoughts.
However, their discussions all reached a consensus, with each rejecting Qin Zian's idea.
Just as Qin Zian was about to have a go at these old fogies, Wang Jianye coughed lightly.
Instantly, the previously noisy conference room fell silent.
Wang Jianye still wore a kind and friendly smile, but his tone became serious.
"Xiao Qin's idea has some merit, but our Harbin Culture and Tourism Bureau has been losing money for years, and our publicity budget is quite limited."
"Director Wang, even if the publicity budget is limited, you can still come up with a few thousand yuan, right?"
Seeing that Wang Jianye was about to reject the request, Qin Zian interrupted him directly.
If the matter is truly concluded, then such a good opportunity will have been wasted.
Qin Zi'an was confident that the promotional video would go viral online, so he naturally wanted to make a concerted effort to secure it.
"I'm sure everyone here understands the principle that quality is more important than quantity. I haven't updated my social media for almost three years, and in this era of rampant internet traffic, it's hard to make a splash."
"I believe what you all want to see is netizens visiting Harbin, not just becoming a topic of casual conversation. To achieve the former, we must take drastic measures to let the public see Harbin."
"A former popular singer releases a new song and passes the civil service exam to become the director of the Harbin Culture and Tourism Bureau. This is a gimmick, but also a way to attract attention. When netizens come with the intention of just watching the drama unfold, they hear the beautiful music and see the stunning scenery of Harbin, and before they know it, they will want to visit Harbin."
This time, Qin Zian's idea did not elicit ridicule from the crowd, but instead prompted them to ponder it.
Following his line of thought, everyone agreed that the prospects were indeed very promising.
Only Wang Jianye remained somber, seriously considering the feasibility of the matter.
Harbin is like a stagnant pool of lifeless water nowadays, and it really needs new vitality to be injected in order to revitalize itself.
Although Qin Zian's idea seems somewhat reckless, it is still a good approach.
"Based on your promotional plan, how many tourists do you think you can attract?" Wang Jianye asked.
"The Ice and Snow World has seen more than 100,000 visitors in its first week of operation."
Upon hearing Qin Zian's confident words, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
It's worth noting that the average visitor count at the Ice and Snow World is only seven thousand people.
Breaking 50,000 in a week is already a difficult thing, let alone exceeding 100,000.
Wang Jianye already thought Qin Zian's idea was excellent, and seeing his decisiveness, he readily agreed.
"Okay! What budget do you need? I'll approve it."
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have triggered the hidden quest 'Potato Northern Expedition'. Attracting 100,000 tourists from the south to the Ice City will earn you a mysterious reward.]
Wang Jianye's voice and the system's voice sounded almost at the same time, leaving Qin Zi'an completely bewildered.
For no other reason than the system's mission called 'Potato Northern Expedition'.
Attracting tourists is fine, but why the restriction to southerners?
However, it wasn't a big problem; this hidden mission didn't affect Qin Zi'an's overall plan.
After leaving the meeting room, he listened to the songs in the newbie gift pack again.
After careful selection, Qin Zian chose "Snowy Ice City" as the background music for the promotional video.
After all, the system also had a hidden mission: to attract tourists from the south to the Ice City.
The songs in the shouting rap style are indeed too rough and wild; they would be quite interesting in Northeast China.
However, this is somewhat difficult for audiences in the south to accept.
This is just like tofu pudding; people in the north prefer savory versions, while people in the south prefer sweet ones.
After deciding on the direction of the song, Qin Zian redeemed the song "Snowy Ice City" from the system.
He sang a line a cappella, following the melody, and was surprised to find that his singing voice sounded much better than before.
Not only that, the system also provides a music video template to match the song.
This also greatly reduced Qin Zian's workload.
...
Over the past few days, Qin Zian has been shuttling between music production studios and major tourist attractions in Harbin, finally completing the final production the day before the opening of the Ice and Snow World.
He immediately registered a new Douyin account under his own name and posted the video online.
Regardless, Qin Zi'an is still a celebrity, and has some degree of fame.
The video started to go viral in less than half an hour after it was released.
As a result, more and more viewers clicked on the video and watched the promotional video that Qin Zi'an had carefully produced.
