Traveling Between the Modern World and Journey to the West, Becoming a Sage Through Incense Offerings

Comedy + no female lead

[Ding! You exchanged the incense offerings at the local shrine for hybrid rice seeds!]

> Unemployed young man Xu Que gets the most outrageous golden finger: the richer his hometown gets, the stronger he becomes!

> From then on, a small village in Guangxi undergoes a dramatic transformation

> The village dog, Er Gouzi, steals an elixir and gets chased for three blocks? That’s our scenic area’s mascot!

> A rooster slicks its feathers into a middle part and plays basketball? Ever heard of intangible cultural heritage performances?

> Tourists pray to the statue for love? No, they’re scanning a code to buy “the organic rice favored by the sages”!

> When gods and Buddhas descend upon the village, Xu Que pulls out an official document with a cold smile. “This is my contracted five-A scenic site. Tickets are five hundred, and incense offerings cost extra!”

> Becoming a sage through incense offerings? No, this is the ultimate form of rural revitalization!
