After much hesitation, Director Fu finally said he would refuse.
Playing the role of a witch is too difficult; he felt deep down that he couldn't do it.
It's not about saving face, but the main reason is still about saving face...
Anyway, Director Fu just didn't want to play the role of a witch, and didn't want to become one of the leaders on Qin Zi'an's list of troublemakers.
Director Fu can confidently guarantee that he would gladly go to any project Qin Zi'an chooses.
Even if it's just leading everyone to dance at a folk festival...
Director Fu gritted his teeth and managed to pull through.
After all, so many of my colleagues have already done it, so it won't seem too out of place for me to do it too.
But this witch has definitely opened up a new track for Qin Zian to create mischief.
From makeup and attire to behavior, even if Director Fu were just an ordinary citizen, the psychological burden of playing this role would be considerable.
Therefore, considering the long-term implications, Director Fu decided to postpone the matter.
For Qin Zi'an, the deputy director's refusal was already part of his plan.
If Director Fu doesn't refuse, then there must be something fishy going on behind the scenes.
Since Qin Zi'an had considered the possibility that Director Fu might refuse, he must have already come up with a way to deal with it.
As early as when Qin Zi'an proposed to carry out the "Second Invitation to Shehuo" activity, he had already thought of having Director Fu play the role of the witch.
However, Qin Zian did not express his complete thoughts at that time, but waited for the online public opinion to ferment.
Although Qin Zian has only been working in cultural and tourism promotion for a little over three months, he has come into contact with far too many local cultural and tourism promotion workers during this time.
It can be said that these people have a strong desire to promote their hometown and local culture and tourism, and almost nothing can stop them.
It is precisely because of this that those people disregarded everything and went all out to enter the public eye.
Those people were like that, and so was Director Fu.
In Qin Zian's view, the reason why Director Fu is refusing to play the witch is simply because he hasn't mentally prepared himself for it.
After Director Fu saw the reality clearly and understood the stakes involved...
Qin Zian was certain that Director Fu would dedicate himself to this folk performance with 200% enthusiasm.
Therefore, Qin Zian was not in a hurry at all, and even adopted a strategy of retreating to advance.
“Director Fu, details reveal people’s true character and are what truly move people. However, I understand your refusal; if you don’t want to play the role, then so be it.” Qin Zi’an paused, then said feigning difficulty, “But if the publicity effect is poor, then don’t blame me.”
Hearing Qin Zian's words, Director Fu felt extremely distressed.
He was now being held back by Qin Zian, completely caught in a pincer movement.
Let's move forward. Director Fu really doesn't want to play the role of a witch.
Let's step back; Director Fu needs to consider the cultural and tourism development of the Tianshui Culture and Tourism Bureau.
Just as Director Fu was extremely anxious, Qin Zi'an had already stood up first.
"Director Fu, it's getting late, so I'll be going now. Let's continue our discussions on the follow-up publicity matters tomorrow."
Director Fu nodded and let Qin Zi'an leave.
Compared to Director Fu's inner anxiety, Qin Zi'an appeared very calm.
Even now, everything is still under Qin Zian's control.
As early as when Qin Zi'an proposed the "Second Invitation to Shehuo" event, the timing of the event had already been set.
This year's Shehuo (a traditional folk performance) event will be held in three sessions, with two days in between each session.
Qin Zian also gave a very simple timeframe: the three events would be held within a week.
This will give Tianshui more time to transition to its most beautiful season.
But more importantly, the two days in between will bring about a lot of changes.
Qin Zian had predicted long ago that with the unprecedented surge in traditional folk activities this year, it would be very easy for Tianshui Shehuo to stand out from the crowd.
Without innovation, or by making some adjustments and changes, Tianshui Shehuo (a traditional folk performance) would never have brought huge cultural and tourism benefits to Tianshui.
But what if Director Fu personally joined the folk performance and played the outstanding role of the witch?
The mere presence of the deputy director alone will undoubtedly attract public attention and truly drive offline traffic to Tianshui's cultural tourism sector.
The biggest difficulty in implementing this plan is getting Director Fu's approval.
If the first Shehuo event doesn't live up to expectations, then Director Fu will definitely be restless.
At that point, it would be a piece of cake to have Director Fu personally play the role of the witch.
As a cultural and tourism worker, Qin Zi'an would certainly not intentionally disrupt the normal conduct of cultural and tourism activities.
Therefore, Qin Zian put some clever ideas into the design of the event.
The three Shehuo (a traditional folk performance) events will take almost a week to complete, leaving a long gap in between.
Furthermore, the next Shehuo (a traditional folk performance) event will take place the day after tomorrow.
Given the tight schedule, only impatient tourists would come to Tianshui.
Many of the target audience members will choose to wait and see how the first Shehuo performance goes before deciding whether to go to Tianshui to watch the Shehuo event.
Under such circumstances, the first Shehuo event in Tianshui would certainly not be as popular as it had ever been, which greatly increased the possibility that Director Fu would step in and play the role of a witch.
Thinking of this, Qin Zian's lips curled up slightly.
He doesn't need to do anything now, he just needs to wait quietly.
...
As time passed, the first Shehuo (a traditional folk performance) event arrived as scheduled.
Because of the popularity of Tianshui Malatang and the sincerity of the Tianshui Culture and Tourism Bureau, many tourists still come to participate in Tianshui's Shehuo activities.
Rather than saying they came to participate in the Tianshui Shehuo (a traditional folk performance), it would be more accurate to say they came to watch the Shehuo performance while enjoying Tianshui spicy hot pot.
Did the second attempt to invite the Shehuo (a traditional folk performance) fail?
That's not quite it, it just didn't meet the public's expectations.
After all, this time the Tianshui Shehuo only made it to a minor trending topic, barely making it into the top fifty of the trending topics list.
If Qin Zian performs as usual, he'll definitely be in the top ten, if not the number one on the trending topics list.
Director Fu looked at the comprehensive data of the folk performance activities, frowned, and looked at Qin Zi'an across from him, feeling quite uncomfortable.
