Do you still remember the "Miss Picasso" that hit the net overnight last winter?
And Ding Zhen in Litang the same, she is also a person with a fire a city.
At the time, there was an online joke that went something like this: All the people who traveled to Xi'an were either looking at her or on their way to see her.
Even the security guards at Datang Night City spat out, "Now the barrier in the performance area has to be broken several times a day!"
Recently, all over the tourist attractions are fancy rubbing Ding really hot, Gigi saw a nickname for @ Tang Monk netizen, but also left a message Let Picard Chen for Xi'an to go on a journey, the war Ding really.
The young lady's reply was also particularly interesting: "Then please also borrow the White Dragon Horse of the Holy Monk for a while, before you can compare with Pearl."
Then, a roundup of recent developments in the year since Pika Chen burst onto the scene.
Gigi suddenly realized that the original Ding Zhen is not the first "handed over to the state", the choice of state-owned enterprises "iron rice bowl" of the net red , and not the first time the local cultural and tourism sector successfully borrowed flow The first time I saw this, I had to go back to the office and get a new one.
At the end of last year, "the girl who does not fall down" video hit, immediately there are many brokers, net red company to find door to door, want to sign the Picard Chen as an artist, there is a well-known talent show also looking for her to participate.
But they were all rejected by her, because for the overnight success, this 96-year-old girl thought very thoroughly:
"I'm just an ordinary dancer, and I still need to settle down and learn to carve myself better, so that I can bring better performances and works for the audience like me." "I'm just an ordinary dancer, and I still need to settle down and learn to carve myself better. " At the time, most people were praising her for her "three views are more correct than the five senses", but there were also many netizens who questioned that she was talking pretty words and scenes. After all, how can anyone resist the temptation of money and fame? According to past examples, after the overnight success of the vegetarian is usually a two-way street: Either sign the company into the entertainment circle, or use the flow of live broadcasting to sell goods. And no matter what kind of choice you make, in the end it's all a flash in the pan, and none of them avoids going down the old road of "hotness, money, cartwheeling, disappearing". But Picard Chen is different, time is the best proof, after the explosion of popularity, although she has a lot of fans, but the work and life did not happen particularly huge changes. Still as usual, the clock went to work, doing the work of the dancers in the wind and sun , and continue to bring more wonderful performance for the scenic tourists. The only difference is that she was also officially awarded the title of "Shaanxi Cultural and Tourism Recommendation Ambassador" as was Ding Zhen, adding the identity of a local tourism brand. So, although she is popular by the traffic, but her position is never a "netizen", but a dancer in the city of the Great Tang Dynasty, is an employee of the Department of Culture and Tourism of the Qujiang New District of Xi'an. In addition to the promotion of tourism, she will also use their own traffic and influence, actively participate in a variety of poverty alleviation and agricultural public welfare activities , the results are very good. She said: "I want to do something that might be praised and make some contribution to my hometown Xi'an." From this point of view, Ding Zhen is actually not the first Netflix session of the positive energy stream, Ganzi is not the first place to use the flow to drive the tourism economy. In the 1970s, Andy Warhol said: "Everyone has 15 minutes of fame." This quote has become the golden rule of the internet age, when vegetarians burst into the limelight. However, few people care about the long hibernation and accumulation of 15 minutes, and the longer life after 15 minutes.
Datang City of the Night, as Xi'an's local spending huge amounts of money to build key tourism projects, scenic spots inside a very large number of dancers, just "Miss Tumbler" before and after there are more than a dozen.
Why is it that Picasso is the only one to break through the internet?
Gigi feels that in addition to being beautiful, having a good temperament, and having a foundation in dance, the most important thing is dedication.
For example, this tumbler's performance props weigh 500 pounds, a semi-circular, semi-solid base, plus a T-shaped supporting iron frame, requiring the combined efforts of several adult males to carry.
Before the show starts, the actor needs to stand on the prop with the help of the crew, fix the lower half of his body completely in the frame, and then fasten the safety rope and cover the ?àêàêàêàêàêàêàêàêàêàêàêàêàêàêàêàêàêàêàêà.
Then up to an hour of the performance process, fixed waist is a 6-7 cm wide "iron belt", all seemingly beautiful and flowing action, are dependent on the actor waist force to complete, very test of basic skills , never the average person can do well.
A performance down, actor's waist and abdomen, thighs and hips, often iron bracket grinding to the bruises , in case of encountered the kind of raw drag, no quality of the tourists, and will even be injured.
And the hottest time last year, Xi'an's night temperature has been very low, tourists are wearing thick down jacket to see the show.
But in order to get the best out of their performances, the performers usually only put a warm coat under their thin costumes, leaving their necks and arms exposed.
But even with cold hands and feet, Picasso is still facing the audience with the brightest smile, making many netizens feel heartbroken.
So this year, in the netizens of the strong suggestion, not fall down Miss sister finally have new clothes, a few days ago has also been officially with the new winter clothes on duty!
There is also a particularly small detail, Picard Chen red went to participate in the TV program, the host noticed that she even take the microphone has been crossing the fingers, at all times to maintain the best posture , they quickly praise her dedication.
Just like the cast members at Disneyland, as long as they're in costume, they're always in character, which is both a sign of respect for the profession and a responsibility to the audience.
It's been said that details make the difference, and I think that's one of the reasons why Picasso can stand out!
For the life after the popularity, Ding Zhen said he would like to stay in his own world, Picard Chen is the same.
Initially chose to do the scenic Tang costume dancers, because she studied dance since childhood, and privately is a Hanbok enthusiast, which is why she did not hesitate to choose this job after graduation.
Both to be able to dance, but also to wear a variety of beautiful performance clothes every day, it is a dream come true!

After bursting into the limelight, Pikachan is still living the same life.
In addition to her performance photos at work, her Twitter feed is full of beautiful photos of her in various kinds of ancient performance costumes.
Sometimes it's a beautiful Tang Dynasty woman with a fluttering dress and a wry smile.
Sometimes it's the heroic, black-robed chivalrous woman.
A sword, a pot of wine, free to wander the world.
By the Mid-Autumn Festival, they will even cosplay a Chang'e sister.
I can see that Picard Chen is enjoying his life and work very much.
Yes, it's a good idea to stay focused on your job and not get carried away by the momentary success of the show, which is the only way to be responsible for your own life.
After all, the entertainment circle, the net red circle is not so good to mix, to be able to freely do their own favorite things, only the most happy, is not it?
In November of this year, Ms. Pika Chen was dressed in a beautiful Chinese wedding dress, announced on Weibo that she got married!
The man's name is Sun Yu, nicknamed "Fourth Brother", and he is also an employee of Datang Night City, and it is said that it was love at first sight with Picard Chen.
And the two are Chinese costume lovers, "Four brothers" mother is also the Chinese opera plum blossom award winner, one of the four famous Qinqiao Qi Aiyun teacher.
And for Picard Chen's fans, "Fourth Brother" is actually no stranger at all.
Attack on Chang'an City, beat up the four-eyed boy, and capture Picard Chen alive," the slogan goes!
The four brothers are the "public enemy", but we have always been very blessed, because in the Picard Chen performances or live broadcasts, boyfriends are often at the side of the protection of her.
And because it looks tall and thin, always wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, so people called "four brother".
All in all, they are a perfect match, and they are envious of each other!

In this era of netroots idols and traffic stars, there are too many beautiful and fleeting faces, but too few sincere and positive energy smiles.
And looking at the entire netroots culture, all kinds of ugly and strange netroots are endless, and for the sake of money, there are not a few people without a bottom line.
The only thing that's really rare is a netizen like Picard, Ding Zhen, or even Li Ziqi, who makes a business card for the humanities, tourism, and other local customs and traditions!
Pikka Chen may not be the first, but Ding Zhen, the "sweet wild boy", will definitely not be the last.
Gigi truly hopes that every city will have such teenage girls to advocate for their hometowns and fulfill their own dreams!
