Walking through the inexpensive snack street, we arrived at the ancient shopping plaza of Tianya Datang City. Looking at the dazzling and diverse shops, and watching the waiters dressed in various clothes like a scenery attracting customers.
...Director Zhou took a deep breath!
What a brilliant business approach!
I wondered why he didn't make money in the snack street, but it turns out that the snack street is only responsible for attracting traffic. Behind the snack street, there is a pedestrian shopping plaza... They actually thought of moving the modern shopping plaza to ancient times!
What a brilliant way to make money!
Director Zhou directly asked the marketing manager: "Can I copy this?"
"Of course you can copy this!"
The marketing manager was also very jealous. The modern gift shop in the scenic area was outdated. In order to keep up with the development of the times, he had to let the waiters wear Hanfu and sell fake ancient goods - copy! It must be possible to copy!
Everyone else couldn't help but roll their eyes.
Good fellows, —you guys just don’t want to act anymore, right?
Director Zhou seemed to realize that the wording was not good and explained:
"I declare that although I just said 'copy', the 'copy' I mentioned is not the copying of plagiarism, but the copying of 'transcription'. For example, the literati in ancient times would copy down the literary classics by transcribing. That's right! That's what I mean! We are not plagiarizing! We are transcribing!
"Think about it, ancient architecture, clay sculptures, masks, ancient fans, gold, silver and jade wares...are these intangible cultural heritages unique to any family? If they can sell them, of course we can too!"
Everyone nodded quickly: "The director is right!"
"After listening to the director's words, I suddenly understood something!"
"Borrowing is not copying... How can cultural things be called copying? We are also promoting intangible cultural heritage!"
Everyone was having a great time, and the program crew continued to copy... ahem, draw lessons from the cameraman's footage.
Director Zhou's eyes lit up when he saw the specialty shops. How much money can one make from selling snacks? How much money can one make from a starch sausage?
Look at these, clay sculptures, masks, and fans labeled as "intangible cultural heritage", each of which is sold at a price. Although there are cheaper ones at a few yuan or tens of yuan, the expensive ones can cost hundreds or even thousands!
What made Director Zhou secretly admire her even more was that people actually opened cosmetics and gold and silver jewelry stores in the scenic area!
Why didn’t I think of that!
Cosmetics and gold and silver jewelry make a lot of money... Pretending to be an ancient jewelry store, the taste and style will be improved in no time!
After leaving the shopping street, the program crew came to the academy in Tianya Datang City.
Generally speaking, ancient academies are just for fun, but the academy in Tianya Datang City has no historical background at all. It is impossible for it to display the study supplies and draft notes of ancient literati like other academies do and then openly charge dozens of dollars for admission.
Therefore, the academy in Tianya Datang City can only create some characteristics of its own.
The six arts of a gentleman!
With a ticket to the academy, you can experience all the six arts programs.
Practice writing on gravel and learn "books"; challenge math quiz with bamboo sticks and learn "numbers"; knock on the chimes twice and you will think you have learned "music".
You can drive a chariot for an extra 20 yuan, or drive a donkey cart for free to experience the style of the Gaoliang River God of Chariots, as if you have learned "driving". In a room, you can learn basic "etiquette" from an etiquette teacher. The most popular activity is "shooting", and tourists have shown their shooting skills.
No matter how much you experience, you can learn all the six arts of a gentleman with one ticket. If you are willing to spend 20 yuan more, you can also go to the nearby martial arts examination. If you pass, not only will the registration fee be refunded, but you will also receive prizes and an imperial edict of favor from the martial arts examination winner.
The audience watched with eager eyes as the undercover reporter had so much fun that he picked up the big sack of paper carrying the military exam candidate, and then nearly got hit by the drummer during the archery segment and was ruthlessly kicked out of the training ground.
I also want to go and play it myself!
Director Zhou was secretly shocked. Damn it... Do you know how much trouble it will cause to the ancient city? Everyone makes money by relying on history and culture. Isn't it enough to find some antiques and put them in the old houses for tourists to see? You have to make it so colorful. Isn't it difficult for others to make money by relying on history and culture?
Director Zhou gritted his teeth and asked the design manager: "Can we copy this?"
"This is a bit troublesome. If you really want to copy it... you can copy it!"
The manager of the design department nodded and said, in fact, this academy is not difficult to set up. All you need to do is build a bunch of houses and add a lot of activities. The Six Arts of a Gentleman are just enough to fool people, and tourists can just play around with them.
Taking the martial arts exam is just a joke. You just need to set up some props on an open space and collect money. It’s not difficult!
Director Zhou nodded secretly and continued watching.
After the undercover reporter came out of the academy, he came to the glamorous and decadent Fengyue Street. Director Zhou was the director after all, and he saw the most crucial place at a glance...
The fees at this red-light district are so high, yet there are still so many tourists?
After watching carefully for a while, Director Zhou and countless other viewers were attracted by the music and the beautiful women dancing in the brothel. Although the dance was just so-so, this kind of enjoyment was really, really...
You really know how to have fun!
The worst thing is that it gives people a strange feeling that rich people in ancient times also played this way!
Director Zhou immediately said: "This..."
"Director... this is not easy to copy. It's very difficult!"
"What's so difficult?" Director Zhou asked with a straight face, "Don't we have a performance troupe? Don't we have an open-air stage for performances? Wouldn't it be good to build a high-end hotel in the scenic area and let them make money?"
