[To Save My Family's Traditional Fish Lantern Workshop, I'm Forced to Become a Livestreaming Influencer!] Zhao Qingyu is the only young inheritor of the endangered intangible cultural heritage art of fish lantern dancing. With her family's workshop on the verge of collapse, she makes up her mind, grabs the ancestral fish lantern, and storms into a livestream. While other sellers shout, “Three, two, one, click the link,” she puts on a traditional exorcism-style blessing dance. The goofy, mysterious performance unexpectedly goes viral, and her livestream traffic explodes! [Top Supporter Splashes Out on a Custom “Ghost Wedding Fish Lantern”] A mysterious top supporter spends a fortune to commission a forbidden fish lantern, one only ever seen in ancient texts: the “Ghost Wedding Fish Lantern.” The order is bizarre and the demands are exacting. Qingyu steels herself and accepts, but while following the clues, she is shocked to discover that the generous top supporter is none other than Sun Yanzhou, a refined folklore professor who shows great concern for her intangible cultural heritage project by day! [You Shifty Professor, Trying to Steal My Trade Secrets?] Did Sun Yanzhou approach her and pay for a forbidden fish lantern because he wanted to plagiarize her research, or does he have another motive? While using her goofy exorcism-style dances to popularize traditional fish lanterns in her livestream, Qingyu also turns into an “intangible cultural heritage detective,” matching wits with this “thieving expert” in a professor's disguise. He throws money at her; she turns the tables. He tries to steal her secrets; she lays traps. When an ancient art on the verge of being lost meets the flood of modern online traffic, and sincere efforts to pass down a tradition meet carefully spun lies... who is the real hunter in this battle over fish lanterns?
