Night fell slowly like a giant black ribbon, and the stars in the sky began to twinkle, adding a touch of mystery to this ancient land. The campfire leaped in the open space, its orange-red flames illuminating everything around it, including Qin Zian's resolute and wise face.
Standing on the stage, Qin Zian looked at the expectant eyes below the audience and felt a warm current surge in his heart.
He engaged in numerous Q&A sessions with the audience and shared a great deal of knowledge about the culture of northern Xinjiang.
In this ancient and exotic land of northern Xinjiang, a rich culture and tradition have been nurtured.
The moon festival is only the most mysterious part of it. Qin Zian did not delve into this topic, but instead tried to showcase more of the charm of the northern frontier culture.
He described the boldness and passion of folk dances, vividly depicting the scene of people in northern Xinjiang dancing on the grasslands.
He showcased the exquisite artworks of Northern Xinjiang felt embroidery, whose vibrant colors and rich patterns silently testify to the diligence and wisdom of the people of Northern Xinjiang.
He spoke of camels, the "ships of the desert," which are not only a means of transportation for the people of northern Xinjiang, but also their loyal companions.
Even after Qin Zian finished his narration, the audience remained captivated by the charm of the northern frontier.
Even when faced with those infatuated faces, Qin Zian did not change his original plan.
He consistently chose to stop there and did not go any further in his popular science explanations.
After all, a bonfire party is not only a platform for popularizing science and culture, but also a place for people to relax and enjoy themselves.
Tourists travel thousands of miles to northern Xinjiang, hoping for an unforgettable experience and a moment of relaxation.
While simple cultural and scientific popularization can satisfy some people's thirst for knowledge, more interaction and participation are needed to make everyone feel happy.
Therefore, Qin Zian clapped his hands lightly, sending out the pre-arranged signal.
Upon receiving the instructions, the staff of the Beijiang Culture and Tourism Bureau acted swiftly.
Food carts loaded with delicious food were pushed to the center of the venue, leaving the audience stunned.
Fruits, milk tea, nuts and other snacks were also laid out on the food cart, looking particularly tempting under the glow of the campfire, exuding the unique aroma of northern Xinjiang food.
Especially the fat lamb that wasn't fully roasted yet, with glistening fat dripping from its golden skin, made one's mouth water.
Who could possibly resist this?
Many audience members stood up, eagerly anticipating the arrival of the delicacies from northern Xinjiang.
Seeing everyone's impatient expressions, Qin Zian smiled slightly and spoke calmly and generously.
"Tonight is a bonfire party, a time for us all to relax and enjoy ourselves. The Northern Xinjiang Culture and Tourism Bureau has prepared some local delicacies for everyone to enjoy."
No sooner had Qin Zian finished speaking than the tourists at the bonfire party couldn't contain themselves and rushed toward the food truck.
As the viewers in the live stream watched them devour the delicacies of northern Xinjiang and their satisfied expressions, they couldn't help but feel incredibly envious.
As a result, the live broadcast room of the Northern Xinjiang Culture and Tourism Bureau was once again flooded with comments, filled with all sorts of voices from netizens.
"Holy crap! I can smell the aroma even through the screen. I'm so envious of the tourists here, getting to taste authentic Xinjiang cuisine for free! Especially the whole roasted lamb, even though it's not done yet, my mouth is already watering like crazy. If it's not good, I'll do a handstand and wash my hair."
"Northern Xinjiang Culture and Tourism Bureau, aren't you supposed to be a fan-favorite? How come you're feeding our guys this stuff? That's really unfair. Take my advice: what tourists want is to experience the authentic flavors of Northern Xinjiang. You can just feed them grass. Don't waste the rest of the food either. Pack it all up and take it to my house. I'll reluctantly help you out."
"I'm so jealous! There were so many tourists at the bonfire party, why couldn't I be one more??? From the very beginning of the trivia quiz, I was blinded by jealousy. When all this food came out, I couldn't resist anymore, I wished I could grow wings and fly in to eat for free."
"My dear Northern Xinjiang, promise me you'll invite me next time there's a great event like this, okay? Heavens above, I never said a bad word about Northern Xinjiang before. Seeing how sincere I am, please take me with you next time, okay?"
"Damn it! Just watching a live stream made my mouth water. I'm so envious! I hate that I can't go and taste it in person, I can only stare at it from the live stream. There won't be a next time, I'm booking tickets to Northern Xinjiang right now, I can't let anyone else suffer but my mouth suffer!"
"I really envy these tourists who can eat authentic Xinjiang cuisine, unlike me who was born and raised in Xinjiang. I'm so tired of naan bread, roasted whole lamb, and hand-pulled rice that these things don't appeal to me at all... Waaaaaaah!!! Mom, am I not your little treasure? Why am I in Xinjiang but not even allowed to enter?"
At this moment, whether they are netizens from other places or locals in northern Xinjiang, they are all very interested in the bonfire party organized by the Northern Xinjiang Culture and Tourism Bureau.
Unfortunately, there were too many monks and not enough porridge.
Most people can only watch quietly, unable to experience it firsthand.
Just when everyone thought that the cuisine of Northern Xinjiang was the ultimate weapon, Qin Zian unexpectedly proposed another fun activity.
Because roasting a whole lamb takes a long time, it takes another one or two hours to fully enjoy its deliciousness.
Therefore, in order to make the waiting time more interesting, Qin Zian put the 'dance relay' activity on the agenda.
Thanks to this series of bonfire party activities, the audience's enthusiasm has been growing ever higher.
The moment Qin Zian proposed the 'dance relay' activity, the audience members all stood up, ready to participate.
They held hands, forming a large circle, their faces beaming with anticipation and excitement.
"To better conduct this 'dance relay' segment, our Northern Xinjiang Culture and Tourism Bureau prepared some simple dance moves in advance and invited several dance experts to lead the dance. There are no fixed rules for this dance relay; as long as you are willing, you can dance to your heart's content!"
As Qin Zian finished speaking, a lively and infectious melody suddenly rang out.
Several lead dancers walked onto the stage, dressed in bright ethnic costumes, their postures exceptionally upright.
They began demonstrating dance moves, each one full of power and rhythm.
The tourists were captivated by the lead dancer's moves and began to imitate them...
