Since the identity of Director Fu was revealed, the Shehuo (a traditional folk performance) activities have reached an unprecedented climax.
Tourists visiting Tianshui especially rushed to take photos with Director Fu and then posted the photos on various social media platforms.
In an instant, the "witch bureau chief" entered the public eye and became a hit across the internet with her "down-to-earth" personality.
As the popularity of Shehuo (a traditional folk performance) continues to grow, other projects and activities have also attracted public attention.
Among them, the most popular is Guan Yu on stilts.
Like the witch played by Director Fu, Lord Guan is also a deity who prays for the world.
However, the appearance of the Drunken Guan Gong in the Northwest intangible cultural heritage is more valiant and majestic.
The drunken Guan Yu, standing on three-meter-high stilts, drank three catties of baijiu (Chinese liquor) and then paced back and forth with a large knife in his hand.
Some tourists come from far and wide to pray for their seriously ill family members.
They knelt and bowed devoutly before Guan Gong, allowing him to step over them.
Once you've passed under Guan Yu's robe, every obstacle seems insurmountable.
The broadsword spun around on their bodies, severing the pain and disaster.
The robes swirled around them, driving away their bitterness and resentment.
When all else fails, faith becomes the last line of defense.
The sacrificial activities of the people of Longmin have never been feudal superstition, much less something worthless.
This is simply the faith in the hearts of ordinary people, their last spiritual support.
They had done everything they could, and praying to the gods was nothing more than a way to give themselves some psychological comfort.
In the folk performances in Tianshui, stories of fighting evil and upholding justice from traditional folk tales are presented to the public, symbolizing the punishment of evil and the removal of malevolent spirits.
Shehuo (a traditional folk performance) embodies the local people's hopes for a peaceful and prosperous year, favorable weather, and abundant harvests.
But when people stand on the streets of Tianshui and watch the folk performance troupe pass by, a certain feeling arises in their hearts.
Today, the bustling scene of traffic and people is a sign of national prosperity and peace, and the atmosphere of gongs and drums is a true reflection of everyday life.
Qin Zi'an attracted a large number of netizens by having Director Fu play the role of a witch, allowing them to see a complete folk performance.
Besides the gods from those folk tales, the Tianshui Culture and Tourism Bureau also showed their utmost sincerity.
The Tianshui Culture and Tourism Bureau invited the "Drum King of Lotus War Drums" to the Shehuo (a traditional folk performance) event to perform for tourists from other places.
After receiving the call, Drum King drove thousands of miles overnight to Tianshui to cheer on Tianshui Malatang.
This time, the Drum King beat the lotus war drum with all his might, welcoming guests from all directions with the highest honors.
When the drumbeats of "Phoenix Three Nods" resounded throughout the venue and were transmitted to every corner of the internet through Qin Zian's live broadcast room, it once again stirred up a huge wave of discussion.
"Do you know what the 'Phoenix Three Nods' means? It's our highest form of etiquette!!! The phoenix represents male, the phoenix female, three represents heaven, earth, and humanity, and the nods represent respect. We use the highest etiquette of traditional culture to express our welcome and respect to our guests from Tianshui. Coming to Tianshui for spicy hot pot will definitely not disappoint you."
"Why do other people's drumming sound so good? Our drumming here is just so-so. The rhythm is basically just poking it, poking it, it doesn't poke it, it pokes it, poking it, poking it, poking it..."
"As a resident of Tianshui, I was so excited watching it that I even banged on the table a couple of times to keep up with the rhythm, only to be reported by my neighbor for disturbing the peace... Fine, fine! My heart is dead."
"Excuse me, could you please provide a link to this drum king? His drumming exudes the spirit of men from Northwest China, and it's also made my heart flutter. I feel like I want to be beaten by him... ah, no, I want to see him play the drums up close."
"Seeing how popular the Drum King is, I know that everyone should learn a musical instrument in their lifetime. Don't be fooled by how well the Drum King plays; you should know that I'm also quite good at playing the Retreat Drum. And that's nothing compared to my other skills. I'm also incredibly good at playing various instruments and singing. I dare say that when it comes to boasting, chatting, flicking cigarette ash, and being a contrarian, few people can rival me."
"I'm really speechless. People from Tianshui work in other places, and people from other places go to Tianshui for the Spring Festival. Right now, my desire to go home has reached its peak. But I'm afraid that when I get home, my mom will put away my toys."
Amidst the great discussion, the second Tianshui Shehuo event was also a complete success.
Throughout the performance, it wasn't just Director Fu's portrayal of the witch who became a hit; the Drunken Guan Gong and the King of Lotus War Drums also gained public attention.
Not only did the tourists on site feel Tianshui's sincerity, but netizens from all over the world were also infected by Tianshui's enthusiasm.
They all expressed their desire to travel to Tianshui, to see the local folk performances, and to try the local spicy hot pot.
When Director Fu saw this encouraging data, he was almost moved to tears.
Previously, Director Fu would still hold a grudge about playing the witch.
After all, this is an exchange made in exchange for one's personal image.
If the results are not good, Director Fu really won't know what to do.
But now, looking at the latest data, Director Fu's smile has never stopped.
Director Fu has already put all those burdens aside.
Now, let Director Fu put on another show like a witch...
Director Fu confidently stated that he still has room for improvement and will do his utmost to do even better.
As Director Fu mentally rehearsed the next performance of the witch, he inwardly praised Qin Zi'an extensively.
If it weren't for this kid coming up with such a brilliant idea, Tianshui's cultural tourism might still be lukewarm at best.
As soon as Director Fu removed his makeup and changed into his regular clothes, he rushed to Qin Zi'an's side.
"Little Qin, you're really something... I don't even know how to praise you enough."
Qin Zi'an's lips curled up slightly, and he patted Director Fu's shoulder steadily: "Old Fu, I didn't lie to you, did I?"
"No, no, absolutely not! You are an indispensable contributor to the current success of Tianshui's cultural tourism." Director Fu excitedly grasped Qin Zi'an's hand and said thoughtfully, "I feel that I still haven't shown my full strength today, but don't worry, I will definitely show my 100% sincerity when the Shehuo event comes to a close."
