Chapter 1697: A Stroke of Genius!

~3 min read 537 words

In the advance promotional video of "Huizhou · Rhinoceros Hide Lacquerware" released on CNTV-9. In the final segment.

The frame shows a leaf from a lacquer tree.

Drifting down with the wind.

That leaf drifts past the mist-shrouded mountains of Huizhou.

Flies through forests across the changing of the seasons.

In the end

It lands on the hand of Master Li, whose hand is covered in calluses.

The years have left their marks on his face. His palms have left color upon the lacquerware.

That withered yellow lacquer-tree leaf was clasped in Master Li's hand.

And the final lyric of "The Wind Rises" echoes:

"Where the heart moves, it goes with the wind—"

"In the name of love, would you still be willing?"

When viewers reached the final segment of this short film.

Everyone thought.

That the video released by CNTV-9.

Should have already ended. But!

After "In the name of love, would you still be willing?" finished singing.

Master Li in the short film's frame.

Slowly opened his hand.

That withered yellow lacquer-tree leaf that had been drifting in his grasp. As if time had been reversed.

Transformed from withered yellow to emerald green!

For all the viewers watching this short film. Qin Feng's handling of this detail.

Was simply a stroke of genius!

And at the very end of the frame, in the frozen landscape of Huizhou's mountains and waters. The final caption was only eight characters:

【Enduring and Ever-Fresh · Rhinoceros Hide Lacquerware】.

A stunning reversal that amazed tens of millions~

Undoubtedly.

The handling of the final video's details.

That one tiny leaf gave everyone an immense visual shock.

—【Oh my god~ When I saw the leaf in Master Li's hand turn green, I just burst into tears!】

—【I believe that lacquer-tree leaf, just like the little-known rhinoceros hide lacquerware, will bloom anew!】

—【Feng-ge's stroke of genius left me completely stunned!】

—【This "The Wind Rises" sounds really good, especially paired with the documentary short film, the effect is even better~】

—【It feels like watching a moving, sigh-worthy film.】

—【I agree with what the previous brother said~】

—【Strongly suggest Feng-ge invest in filming a movie about Huaxia's intangible cultural heritage~】

It is precisely because of the ending of this documentary's advance promotional video.

That the few-minute excerpt of "Huizhou · Rhinoceros Hide Lacquerware," paired with Qin Feng's "The Wind Rises."

Garnered much praise and heated discussion online~

Of course!

Regarding what the livestream viewers mentioned.

Investing in a film about Huaxia's intangible cultural heritage. Actually?

Qin Feng had thought about it before.

But, well, he's rather lazy.

If he were to invest in producing a film on the theme of Huaxia's cultural crafts. For Qin Feng, the investment itself didn't matter.

But to ensure quality.

It would definitely take a lot of time.

Without a year or two, it simply couldn't be done~ Therefore, this kind of thing, Qin Feng might do in the future. But not now.

The evening glow fades into the mist-shrouded mountains of Huizhou.

The last wisp of light also vanishes within the Huizhou-style courtyard~

What Qin Feng hadn't expected even more was.

When Reba and Yang Mi finished listening to the entire "The Wind Rises." The two women actually....
