Chapter 525 Chinese tea culture and Brokeback Mountain?
This world is indeed similar to the original world, but some things are different.
For example, the Chinese Spring Festival in this world in 2008 is February 23rd.
The New Year time is different from the original world...
For example, the original world experienced a severe winter and snow disaster in 2008. Although this world was a bit colder and chilling in 2008, there were no snow disasters or widespread power outages.
But there are indeed many places that are the same.
For example, this year's Spring Festival Gala has made netizens complain more and more that the Spring Festival Gala is getting boring.
The performances are always the same, and the endless cross talk gradually leans towards traditional culture. Listening to the whole process, there is not much that can make people laugh, and basically everything is preaching.
The elderly feel speechless, and they still have to be taught at their age, and the young people are even more speechless. The boring things make people unable to sit still for the whole process. In the end, they can only turn on the computer and watch the complaints about the Spring Festival Gala on major video websites.
The boring feeling is slightly better now.
The relevant departments waited until this year's Spring Festival Gala was over and calculated the ratings. In the end, the director Zhang Shuren didn't even bother to look at the ratings. He couldn't even stay in the Central Government Building and ran straight home.
Although the 2007 Spring Festival Gala was criticized, it still managed to stay within the passing mark. However, the ratings of the 2008 Spring Festival Gala dropped to a disastrous level.
On the first day of the new year, when the Spring Festival Gala's ratings topped the Weibo charts, Zhang Shuren instantly felt like he was being dragged to various public places and publicly executed.
But no one would have thought...
The TV Spring Festival Gala has suffered miserably, but several video websites that have broadcast the Spring Festival Gala live on the entire network are making a lot of money.
The once unknown Soku video website was instantly overwhelmed by the influx of traffic and the server was almost paralyzed. Fortunately, the technical department was prepared and added a temporary server, which allowed the video website to operate normally.
[Soku website opens a live broadcast channel, which will shorten the distance between the audience and the anchor]
[Soku video website’s unique barrage system!]
[The barrage system has received rave reviews, allowing you to watch movies in real time and complain!]
[The real transformation of video websites, in this area, Soku website has become the real leader...]
[…]
When the traffic of major video websites exploded, especially the Soku website, which took advantage of the momentum of the Spring Festival Gala to develop its own unique and novel live broadcast system and barrage system, people suddenly began to realize the true nature of the Internet era.
has arrived.
"I heard the news... Soku video website was originally a star-chasing website of classmate Miao Miao. It was purchased and built to support Zhou Yang, but no one could have imagined that the website would become popular thanks to Zhou Yang..."
"Your news is out of date. Although Soku Video Player is Miao Miao's own website, Huaxing is actually partially controlled. Let me break the latest news. In fact, when Zhou Yang left Huaxia, he deliberately
I talked with classmate Miao Miao and gave a detailed plan for the future of the video website. Because of this plan, Miao Miao made the technical department work overtime and launched the barrage system..."
"Oh my god, is Zhou Yang's foresight so terrifying?"
"Yes, but Zhou Yang seems to be keeping a low profile recently. Since being banned by Hollywood, Zhou Yang has rarely appeared in major American media..."
"Hey, such a giant is targeting Zhou Yang...has Zhou Yang returned to China?"
"No, I heard that he is still fighting with Hollywood in the United States, but it seems that he left Hollywood and went to another state of Delaware in the United States, and still insists on filming his "Spider-Man"..."
"I can understand that Chen Kai wants to prove that he is the true "Overlord" orthodoxy, but what does Zhou Yang need to prove? Isn't it good to just return to China honestly? We can't bear this anger anymore..."
"I don't know. His situation is indeed very difficult. The box office performance of theater chains in the United States is quite poor. Although they are not losing money, it is difficult to make money. Theater chains that do not make money will go bankrupt sooner or later..."
"Hey, I was old before
The "History of American Gangsters" that caused a stir in the United States suddenly has no news..."
"I heard that this movie was also made by Chinese people!"
"Damn it...no wonder!"
"."
The arrival of an era.
It will always cause controversy among countless people.
The rise of Soku video website inevitably made many netizens talk about Zhou Yang.
After talking about Zhou Yang, more and more revelations appeared on the Internet, many of which were revealed by insiders. Although there are some doubts in it, the general direction is very similar.
Netizens in China suddenly realized that Zhou Yang was in a very difficult situation in Lao America.
But what they couldn't understand was that although Zhou Yang was in a very difficult situation in Lao America, he still refused to return to China and had to stay in Lao America despite being aggrieved.
Not long after...
Some negative news about Zhou Yang has appeared on the Internet.
I don’t know who led the way, but Zhou Yang was gradually branded with some negative news such as “a foreigner ***”, “a soft-hearted person”, and “a shameless person”.
Zhou Yang's fans were naturally extremely angry. They once quarreled with these trolls on the Internet and suppressed them forcefully. However, these trolls seemed to come in an endless stream, one after another, which once made fans
They were furious.
……………………
Shaannan City.
Qingshui Village.
The once-famous backcountry was fortunate enough to become the filming location for the movie "The Crow", and this small town began to slowly become lively.
Lotus leaf chicken has become a famous delicacy in this village. After the movie "The Crow" was screened and Zhou Yang became popular, a group of tourists come every month to see the filming location of "The Crow"
, come and visit the scenes inside, especially after arriving at a local hotel, tourists will always take a photo with the statue of Zhou Yang outside the hotel.
[It was here that Mr. Zhou Yang got the inspiration for music, so he created such world-famous music...]
As Zhou Yang became more and more famous, and his "composed" piano music went global and was praised by countless musicians around the world, similar rumors began to appear one after another.
Even the old adobe house used as the location for "The Crow" has a piano hung on it. When tourists come to play, they will touch the piano with their hands and feel the artistic atmosphere contained in it.
Many primary and secondary school students traveled thousands of miles to visit, and even deliberately touched the "inspiration stone" at the door under the guidance of local people.
The "Inspiration Stone" itself is a very ordinary stone, but it could not withstand Zhou Yang's sudden and incredible rise, and he unreasonably created one shocking record after another. In the end, some things that cannot be explained clearly became
The so-called superstition, this kind of superstition has become so popular under the exaggeration of some old people.
The new village chief of Qingshui Village is named Liu Gang. He is 32 years old and is the youngest village chief of Qingshui Village.
Three years ago, he was an ordinary farmer. Later, he did some work with the crew of "The Crow" and participated in some marginal roles. After realizing the importance of studying, he began to take self-study undergraduate courses and learned computers...
The more I learn, the more I realize that closed places will be eliminated sooner or later. Even some poor areas must learn.
Three years later, the first thing I did after returning from my studies was to find ways to connect the village to the Internet...
"You asked us to grow this thing, is it really useful? Do those foreigners really understand this? Now that we have grown a crop, can these things really be sold? Everyone is clamoring to lose money!"
"Don't worry if it can be sold! There are some reasons I can't say, but you must be right to listen to me..."
"I asked the village next door to plant it too, can you really do that?"
"Dad, I want to be in line with international standards. I'll tell you later tonight..."
"Okay, I'll tell the folks again, but if there is no more sales in a few months, the folks will have to plant all the tea gardens to plant other things. In addition to the lotus leaf chicken we are famous for, Chinese cabbage is also famous here.
It’s very famous, and many people have made a lot of money growing Chinese cabbage!”
"We can't catch all the benefit of the doubt and make the same thing. After internal competition, no one will make any money..."
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you again!"
After Liu Gang faced his father's doubts and the doubts of the villagers not far away, his expression was tangled, but he was unwilling to reveal a word.
Half a year ago...
When Liu Gang returned to his hometown, in addition to helping plan the Internet connection, he also began to ask fellow villagers to take care of all the previous tea trees and plant new tea.
Based on their trust in Liu Gang, the villagers took care of a large number of abandoned tea fields and turned them into tea gardens. When the tea trees were harvested in the second half of 2007, the villagers found that these tea trees seemed to have been piled up, and it was impossible to find them in China.
Not a huge sales volume...
Qingshui Village is not a place with a great tea culture, nor does it have any famous tea products.
Many fellow villagers think Liu Gang is crazy and doing these things is a waste of money, time and energy.
Why not follow the other group of people in Qingshui Village and get some peripheral ingredients for lotus leaf chicken...
The reputation of pure natural and pollution-free products is so loud now!
You don’t have to worry about sales at all, okay?
After his father left, Liu Gang sat alone in front of the newly installed computer, carefully sorted out the photos of tea gardens and tea leaves he had taken during the day, and uploaded them to the Internet.
After finishing these things, Liu Gang looked at the time...
The current time is 11 o'clock in the evening on the 25th, Chinese time.
The time over there in the United States is eight o'clock in the morning, which is the day "Brokeback Mountain" is released.
He hesitated for a moment, then stared at the stills of "Brokeback Mountain".
"Brokeback Mountain" starring Zhao Zhen!
half year ago……
Zhao Zhen met him by chance, and then mysteriously revealed a piece of news to him.
"If "Brokeback Mountain" is popular, some of China's tea culture can also be popular! This is not just a GA* movie... at the same time, it is a movie that promotes Chinese tea ceremony culture..."
