Beachcombing: The beach is full of amazing seafood, but my wife won't let me get out of bed!

Wu Sui's words were incisive and hit the nail on the head.

Everyone in the courtyard realized this problem.

But you also need to have a selling point that makes people want to come.

Dongyuan County is located at the easternmost part of Fujian Province, and it can be said that half of the county is located by the sea.

But there are many coastal areas across the country.

Even the South China Sea islands are still a bunch of unfinished buildings, let alone this place.

The town leaders looked at each other, cold sweat beading on their foreheads.

They were so focused on the exciting scenes in the plan that they completely overlooked these practical issues.

Chen Changgui's shoulders slumped, and he looked completely dejected.

Secretary Liang frowned deeply and fell into deep thought.

He had to admit that Wu Sui's perspective on issues was even more astute than that of the leaders.

Dongyuan County really can't retain its people.

"Ah Sui." Secretary Liang raised his head and stared straight at Wu Sui.

"Since you see the problem so clearly, you must have a way to break the deadlock, right?"

Wu Sui's lips twitched, thinking to himself that this leader really thought highly of him.

He only had a few decades more experience than others, so how could he possibly come up with a solution?

Besides seafood, Dongyuan County has no other memorable features in later generations.

However, this influence is limited to a few nearby cities and is not enough to support the tourism industry.

"Speak your mind freely, whatever you think, and let's discuss it together. It's okay if you say something wrong."

Seeing that Wu Sui was silent, Secretary Liang assumed that Wu Sui had some concerns.

But Wu Sui knew in his heart that there was nothing he could do.

Could they possibly build a tourist attraction out of it?

and many more……

Building a tourist attraction... doesn't seem like a bad idea.

If the opening of the fishing season can truly transform Dongyuan County into a tourist destination, then...

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he drove up land and commodity prices in Dongyuan County, making the shops he had hoarded worth a fortune.

"There are solutions, but when it comes to tourism, we can't rely solely on natural resources; we need to rely on culture."

"Culture?" Secretary Liang paused for a moment.

"Yes, it combines culture and tourism."

Wu Sui put forward this concept, which was extremely ahead of its time in 2000.

"Tourists come to see the sea, but they get tired of it after a while. What if we give this sea a story?"

Wu Sui stood up, walked to the center of the courtyard, and gestured with his hands to indicate his name.

"Our Dongyuan County has relied on the sea for generations. The heroic deeds of fighting pirates hundreds of years ago, the water life of the Tanka people, and the legend of Mazu protecting fishermen are all ready-made stories."

"We won't do a dry parade; we'll combine tourism and culture to put on a large-scale performance..."

Wu Sui put forward the live-action performance plans that would become popular in various places in later generations, and he spoke with great enthusiasm.

After listening, the leaders were clearly somewhat tempted.

"Yes, it's a performance."

"Find a bay nestled between mountains and water, and build a stage on the water."

"After dark, the lights shone on the sea."

"Tourists sit in the stands, with real waves and sailboats in front of them."

"Act One: Pirates attack, flames soar into the sky, water jets explode, and the fishermen rise up in resistance!"

"Act Two: A violent storm rages, a shipwreck occurs, and the golden statue of Mazu rises from the sea, its golden light illuminating the scene and calming the storm!"

"Act Three: Amidst the twinkling lights of homes, fishing boats return laden with their catch, and actors dressed in our local costumes sing and dance on a floating stage!"

Wu Sui spoke faster and faster, her voice extremely infectious.

"We don't just want tourists to watch a show; we want them to feel like they're actually there!"

"Once they see it, they'll go back and brag about it to everyone they meet. That's the best free publicity."

"With this nighttime performance, tourists are compelled to stay overnight."

"They need to stay in hotels, have late-night snacks, and buy souvenirs."

"We will also organize recreational activities such as beachcombing, fishing, and deep-sea fishing."

"With this combined approach, Dongyuan County not only gained fame but also made money. Isn't that much better than a dry, uninspired fishing festival?"

Wu Sui's blueprint swept across the entire courtyard.

The town leaders were stunned, their mouths agape, and they even forgot to breathe.

"This...this really works?" a town leader stammered.

"Why not? The initial costs are higher, but the later returns will be even greater," Wu Sui replied casually.

"Once the brand is established, this approach to cultural export can be used not only during the fishing festival but throughout the year."

Chen Changgui was trembling all over, his mind filled with the images Wu Sui had described.

Secretary Liang's hand, holding a cigarette, paused in mid-air as he also thought about these tourism projects.

Everyone was completely shocked.

This is no ordinary fishing festival; it's a super project that will completely transform Dongyuan County!

"Great! What a fantastic large-scale live performance!"

Secretary Liang suddenly stood up and paced back and forth excitedly.

"Tourism with stories, cultural heritage, and the ability to retain visitors—that's the kind of tourism we want to develop."

He turned to look at the town leaders, his tone urgent.

"Immediately notify the other members of the county leadership to hold a meeting tomorrow specifically to discuss this project!"

"If we can get this project approved, we'll sell everything we own to get it started!"

Just when everyone was excited and ready to make a big splash.

Wu Sui sighed at the opportune moment and spread his hands.

"Secretary Liang, please don't get agitated. There's a critical hurdle in this matter."

Secretary Liang stopped and turned to look at him.

"What are the requirements?"

"Money," Wu Sui uttered a single word.

"This isn't some makeshift stage performance."

"We need to build a stage at sea, top-notch lighting and sound equipment, hire a professional directing team, and train the actors."

Wu Sui looked at Secretary Liang, his tone calm yet extremely authoritative.

"The initial investment alone is an astronomical figure; I conservatively estimate it to be at least hundreds of millions."

"Can the county afford this money?"

The leaders, who were just moments before extremely excited, were suddenly doused with a bucket of ice water, and their expressions changed completely.

"Hundreds of millions?" Chen Changgui was so shocked that his legs went weak and he almost collapsed to the ground.

"Ah Sui, this...this..."

Several town leaders shook their heads repeatedly and let out a wry smile.

"Ah Sui, how much is our county's annual fiscal revenue? You..."

Secretary Liang frowned deeply, sat back down on the stool, and began to smoke one cigarette after another, caught in a fierce internal struggle.

This is an extremely tempting project that could completely change the fate of Dongyuan County.

However, the high investment threshold stands in the way of everyone.

Damn, I don't have the money.

If we don't take action, who can bear to watch such a great opportunity to turn things around slip away?

"Furthermore, we can also turn the legend of Mazu into a TV series to promote our culture and let more people know about the traditions of Fujian Province."

The bait has been cast.

Next, we'll see how the county responds.

If I could get involved in this project, I'd have a steady stream of orders for Golden Rooster.
