It’d be nice if Story Teller Tian figures out who Zhongli is eventually but keeps it secret. He seems to always appreciate Zhongli being there for criticism.
Zhongli is a type of person who likes to troll his citizens through many forms and stories. Mf really told the shop owner that her story is all made up…by him in Rex Incognito.
I would imagine every time they do some collab like this, they have to open the book of lore to see if it fits 😂 *Edit*: damn guys, thanks for the like. But to clarify (for some ppl who take this comment too seriously) I said *IMAGINE*, it's just a funny little visual inside my head. They do collaborate a lot and I just think it funny to think some of the employees are like “Oh shoot, lemme check again the lore book”. A simple sentence and a simple concept ✨ *Edit 2*: ‘sometimes’ go in the trash
Wait! Ya'll dont realise how big of a deal this is! 1:51 He has a face!! In every cutscene in this style he is always faceless or has his face covered! This is the first time we see animated Zhongli face!
Zhongli is the original traveler before the Traveler. My guy has been going to places even thru literal dreams like the Sandman. I think us seeing his face in a cinematic like this for the first time during his time as an Archon in that getup basically confirms that the storyteller was telling mostly the truth despite it being a coincidence since the storyteller definitely made that up based on his hesitation towards Zhongli's criticism.
The only reason they show his face in this is because this is a non canon scene that is just an advertisement for a collab,which makes it all the more interesting thar he's the only archon whose face is hidden
Honestly Zhongli deserves another story, he has done so many in the past, there are other areas of Liyue that hasn't been released and he's the oldest character we've met. I would love to listen more of this kind of story, the visuals and art style is amazing.
@@citoyenneteavanttout7273 nope, I'm just tired to her in every story how perfect and flawless he is. I literally fall asleep in his second story quest. There is a reason why people doesn't like Rey from star wars.
I just want there to be a quest where Zhongli gets up from his chair while the dude tells his story and Zhongli’s gonna be like “I didn’t do that. Where did you get these stories from?”
Thank you Hoyoverse for keeping the Legend and mystery around Zhongli alive and well. If that makes Rex Lapis want to go visit, it sure really makes me wanna go visit too.
I've been to this museum (三星堆) and the relics are indeed very beautiful and intriguing. I admit Genshin Impact does the best at representing Chinese culture, and I am so proud to see my culture represented so well in popular video game. I am so proud to be Chinese. I find it very touching that Genshin has collabed with a museum I went to personally. It really gives me a feeling of beig connected and woven into the tapestry of the greater world!
As much as idolise Zhongli with practically my soul, I can say that the event teaser has made me even more interested in Genshin Impact as well as wanting to visit the same museum that just happened to be that exact same museum I visited when I was younger. Genshin Impact and the Sanxingdui Museum never fails to put a smile on my face.
I love that Zhongli loves to listen to stories about himself 😂 like he internally checks the facts with the people in his nation and then offers his two cents (if he had any mora-)
zhongli is the perfect character to represent a collab with a museum! the mix of the real-life artifacts and the liyue-style visuals was such eye-candy. excited to learn more!
haha, welcome Sanxingdui Museum located in Guanghan, Sichuan. Having been there this summer, I'd like to say it's such an interesting museum in Sichuan❤
I haven't gone to a museum in years but I would love to go to this one! I find it funny that Hoyo is using their game to introduce culture and history to their player base, however its also really nice. Not a lot of people stop to appreciate these things.
the way they choose the two bgm that we do not usually hear..... treasury from the northland, and the realm within... is just perfect and a little bit of nostalgia for me
I just saw the Sanxingdui exhibit at the Hong Kong Palace Museum less than a week ago. It's amazing to see all the artifacts I saw in person in this video ❤❤❤ To any Genshin fans in Hong Kong at the moment, I highly recommend going to the exhibit 😊
Ah, I’m excited for this event! Zhongli/Rex Lapis and his story has always fascinated me, as he has watched eons pass and still has that collected demeanor. Liyue is also my favorite nation, all things considered. It’s beautiful, and I always manage to find something new every time I wander there
This collaboration is so amazing. No wonder Genshin reached out a lot of communities.The game changed the way communities look at video game. Genshin incorporates a lot of cultural stuff in and out of the game.
wow this is such a fantastic way to incorporate the history of how these statues were used irl with genshin lore and make it easy to understand through storytelling and visuals, I can imagine it's a really great way to make it interesting and educational for a younger audience especially. bravo!
I just realized this is the only animated cutscene Rex Lapis ever portrayed with his eyes shown, although Zhongli seems to imply this story probably wasn’t real. Anyway, the museum looks interesting
I love how the setting echoes Zhongli's character demo as well. The camera angles, the lines at the beginning... And then we are pulled into the story, like in the Azhdaha cutscene where we saw as well as in the Yaksha lore video, Zhongli's archon form. Story of the video itself is very nice as well, showcasing many of the Sanxingdui museum's artifacts but not forcing them into the setting. Very heartwarming! Zhongli's quip at the end is amusing too.
The museum, a place with history, and the character concept of Zhongli go so well together! Hoyobus collaborates with various cultural heritages really well lol
favorite character from existing ones, favorite music from Li Yue, wonderful visual range, favorite region..... What could be better? A wonderful morning awakening. The morning did not start with coffee, but with a beautiful Rex Lapis
Beauty of the artwork aside, I feel as if Iron Tongue Tian knows who Zhongli really is, as Tian always gets flustered when Zhongli asks about his Rex Lapis stories
monumentally wise and meaningful of genshin to use their influence to promote a museum exhibit, especially in this day and age, and especially with zhongli as the 'mascot'. absolutely incredible. i wish i could go see it for myself
I love visiting museums, ruins, historical places, it is inexplicable how these relics of the past attract my curiosity, since I was a child I would like to be an archaeologist and study all these ancient things that are often practically lost to us in the present, unfortunately I never had the opportunity to do this. I have faith that someday I will be able to delve deeper into this area, and I will be able to visit many places, China will certainly be one of them, it is a very ancient land rich in history and culture, there are many excavation sites and many things to find out, people have no idea how places outside the “ordinary” (Egypt, Greece, etc.) can overflow with opportunities and mysteries.
Choosing Zhongli as the character for promoting this collab is simply perfect. Could not have chosen a more fitting character.
SO REAL
Cause he an old man
Bro Zhongli belongs in a museum at this point
He's a relic from bygone era, way passed his prime, which is perfect for museum collaboration.
He is the musuem
Zhongli listening to his own story from someone else is a vibe in itself. Love him ❤
LOVE HIM TOO
What would you feel if it's your story being told by others?
@@johnsimonalmario482definitely the urge to correct them if false lol

Not only the artwork and animations are amazing, but the cultural significance is ever-present which makes everything even more beautiful.

This is a really cool way to show an exhibit of an museum, Zhongli fits perfectly with it too! Genshin out did themselves again!
Imagine being a visitor of the museum, see one of the Statue of the Seven and thinking that Rex Lapis had been here before...
this was such a creative and fitting way to promote a collaborative, you can really see the care put into it 🤧
Zhongli is just so majestic I love him so much
SO REAL
GOD I LOVE ZHONGLI SO MUCH. He really fits the concept of this collab!

Yea Same here.
Me too!
I just want there to be a quest where Zhongli gets up from his chair while the dude tells his story and Zhongli’s gonna be like “I didn’t do that. Where did you get these stories from?”
This would be hilarious
I love how genshin has a passion for sharing culture as one of their goals, you can see this both in-game and their videos
Yesss! I just love the cultural elements of the game and the events.
^^^^ THIS
Zhongli just sipping tea and listening to his own stories always cracks me up , genshin has to be the only game to collaborate with a museum
I'm so glad they chose Zhongli for this, it's perfect and hoping that will be his skin in the future. Always wanted to see his Archon outfit in game
As someone who took a few art history classes, I’m happy to see Genshin promoting this sort of stuff and helping out museums.
Damn, the way they animated it are absolutely majestic. This collaboration is really great. Can't wait to see more of this in future.
Thank you Hoyoverse for keeping the Legend and mystery around Zhongli alive and well.
