Li Yaolin's plan for the "sea cable car" project is to first build three cable car stations on the ridges of the sea, on the reef islands in the reserve, and next to the Xingzhou Island lighthouse. When she has raised 100 million yuan, she will first build the cableway from the sea to the reef islands.
However, she has already raised the expectations of tourists just by building the station: "If we start construction now, can we take the cable car tomorrow?"
Many people do not have high expectations for this: "You are overthinking. According to the previous construction period of the sea cable car, it may take three to five years to build."
Li Yaolin did not respond. After all, she did not know when she could save enough money.
Even so, there are constant discussions on the Internet, but in addition to discussing the sea cable car, they are more discussing "advection fog".
As the security guard said, after the sun came out, the fog in the east didn't seem so thick, but the tourists' sense of wonder did not disappear, because the sun shone through the clouds, and the orange light fell on the sea. The diffused light dyed the fog under the feet of the tourists golden.
The golden fog flowed to the low places like water. Tourists couldn't describe the shock brought by this visual feast in words.
Soon, the fog dissipated.
Many tourists who slept in didn't realize what they missed until they woke up and checked their phones. They also wanted to see the "golden advection fog", but this was a wonder that could only be encountered by chance, so they could only secretly reflect on themselves that they shouldn't have stayed in bed.
Not only this group of tourists, but also many employees of Xingzhou Island did not meet. Lin Qitong and Zheng Xuan wailed in the group for a long time. Lin Qitong said, "I shouldn't have rented a house outside just for the convenience of going to work!"
Yes, after Zheng Xuan, Lin Qitong also moved to live outside the island, and only Li Yaolin still lived in the employee dormitory above the convenience store.
The offices of many departments have moved to the industrial park. Li Yaolin also has an office there, but she usually works on the island and only goes to the industrial park under special circumstances.
As for the office building on the island, it is still in use, but only the operation department and the marketing department are left, and the office of the reserve management station has also moved in.
Taking into account the increase in staff in hotels, restaurants and management stations, more people would need to work night shifts on the island. Li Yaolin built a three-story staff dormitory building next to the convenience store. She moved to the new dormitory, and the dormitories above the convenience store were given to some staff members of the reserve management station who stayed on the island for a long time, such as Long Feng.
Li Yaolin sent an emoticon and replied to Lin Qitong: "Maybe we will have a chance to see it next time when the weather is right!"
Lin Qitong said: "Advection fog mostly appears in winter and spring. When the temperature rises, there will be no chance to see it!"
Zheng Xuan said: "You used to worry about not being able to see 'sea fire' and 'sea dampness', but didn't you get tired of seeing them later?"
"No, you are wrong, I am not tired of seeing them! Now that the office has moved off the island, I have no chance to see them!" Lin Qitong even regretted moving the office.
Zheng Xuan couldn't say whether she regretted it or not, but she did have some regrets.
Li Yaolin thought, then next time she will wait until they return to the island and then release the "advection fog" in advance to satisfy the curiosity of the little sisters!
Suddenly, Zheng Xuan privately chatted with Li Yaolin: "By the way, are you going to the May Day dormitory party?"
The last time they gathered in dormitory 301 was the night before the graduation party in 2021. After the party, they basically went their separate ways. Although they had small gatherings in the past two years, there was no gathering of four people.
Zheng Xuan thought that everyone's work was stable, so he proposed a gathering. The other two roommates "Huang Xiaoya" and "Qiong Ma" agreed, leaving only Li Yaolin.
Zheng Xuan also knew that Li Yaolin was busy, so she said, "I chose the venue for the gathering in the oil market, right here in the industrial park. It just so happens that they both have a May Day holiday, so they can come here for vacation. Let me know if you have any plans."
Li Yaolin sent an OK emoji and said, "If you have plans, I will make time for you. I can't ignore my sisters no matter what I'm busy with!"
"You are such a sweet-mouthed scumbag who is playing with the feelings of a little girl."
Li Yaolin: "..."
Zheng Xuan made a winking expression: "Then let's put it this way, on the night of May 1st, you are ours."
Li Yaolin: "Your words are much more unrestrained than my words. It's really like the officials are allowed to set fires while the people are not allowed to light lamps!"
After chatting about personal matters, it was time to go to work. Zheng Xuan simply called in and talked about business: "This morning, there was good news from the post office. The postage postcards and special postage maps with the theme of Xingzhou Island that we applied for the year before last have passed the review and officially entered the issuance process..."
It has been a year and a half since the application was submitted, but this speed is considered fast. Some scenic spots have applied for special postage maps for five years before they were approved, and it will take more than a year to be issued.
The reason why the scenery postage postcards and special postage pictures applied by Xingzhou Island were approved so quickly was that the oil market and the province strongly recommended and supported it;
secondly, Xingzhou Island developed a deserted island into a popular scenic spot that is well-known in China and abroad in just two years, and the country is also very optimistic about its development;
thirdly, the public’s voice is too high. Many photography exhibitions have featured photography works with the scenery and animals of Xingzhou Island as the protagonists, and many of them have won awards. Many people have developed an interest in collecting special postage pictures. If Zheng Xuan
hadn’t taken the initiative to bring up this news, Li Yaolin might not have known it, because it has been too long, and she only mentioned it at the time, and Zheng Xuan has been following up for the past year and a half.
"Manager Zheng." Li Yaolin suddenly called Zheng Xuan in a serious tone.
Zheng Xuan on the other end of the phone was a little confused, holding his breath and waiting for Li Yaolin to say the next sentence. As a result, after waiting for a long time, Li Yaolin just smiled and said, "You are really nice!"
"Huh?" Zheng Xuan was a little confused by this incoherent talk.
Li Yaolin said, "You work so hard, I would feel bad if I don't give you a promotion and a raise." It would be unreasonable
not to give Manager Zheng a "Best Worker Award" at the end of the year!
Zheng Xuan did not modestly say that she was not qualified for a higher-level job. She just sighed and said, "Other people don't want to work hard because they can't see the day of success. With a boss like you who is so conscientious, if I don't work hard, it would be irresponsible to me."
After all, she is not tied down by other things now, so of course she has to fight while she can!
After getting rid of the past, she has a very clear plan for her future. If nothing unexpected happens, she should continue to work in the oil market, and maybe she will settle down and retire here, so she can consider buying a house nearby.
The house doesn't need to be too big, a two-bedroom one will do. With her current salary and the salary, year-end bonus and housing fund she has saved over the past year or so, she can still afford the down payment.
And after buying the house, she can occasionally bring her parents here to live in retirement or go on vacation.
If her parents don't want to come, she can demolish the old house in her hometown and build a safer and more comfortable house for her parents to live in.
As for her love life, she thinks she can put it aside for the time being.
…
A few days later, the position of the product department changed. Zheng Xuan took over the vacant position of deputy manager of the product department. Although she had always been a supervisor before, she actually did the work of a deputy manager. Now she was officially promoted to deputy manager, and her colleagues and subordinates were not dissatisfied.
The first task Zheng Xuan arranged after taking office was to follow up on postage postcards and special postage pictures, and then discuss the design and production of "film and television joint derivative products" with the copyright holder of the second part of "The Mermaid Love Song".
This drama has been filming for two weeks, and the shooting cycle is expected to be two months, plus post-editing, special effects, dubbing and submission for review, and then broadcasting. Their department has a year and a half to carry out related work.
Xingzhou Island’s cultural and creative products are introduced very quickly, which is one of the reasons why the sales of cultural and creative products are rising steadily. Seeing too many products without any innovation, tourists will be aesthetically fatigued and will not have the desire to consume.
Take postcards as an example. Xingzhou Island has printed and issued five types of postcards so far, namely "Xingzhou Island Scenic Postcards", "Hand-painted Postcards", "Transparent Commemorative Postcards", "Hand-painted Tour Albums", and the later added "Customized Postcards".
I won’t mention the scenic postcards. Basically, every time a new project or attraction is developed, it will be printed and produced in line with the times. So far, there are hundreds of scenic postcards. For
the remaining postcards, there are more than fifty styles of each type designed and issued.
The hand-drawn tourist atlas has two editions, "Xingzhou Island" and "Cultural and Creative Industrial Park", and each edition has three types of "food, accommodation, and travel", and recently a "cultural exhibition hall" will be released. When the "sea cable car" is completed, it is estimated that the "sea cable car type" will be added.
Zheng Xuan dare not ask the factory to print more for each type of atlas, for fear that the island owner will have a sudden inspiration to plan a new project one day, and these atlases will have to be updated, and the old versions of the atlases will inevitably be eliminated. Printing too many and not being able to sell them will only be a waste.
For tourists with a collecting habit, each postcard and atlas represents the development process of Xingzhou Island, so they are particularly keen on collecting postcards and atlases.
But ordinary tourists will only choose postcards and picture albums that they find interesting and novel, so if some postcards are too old or the picture albums have not been updated, ordinary tourists will lose interest in spending.
These things are very challenging for the ability of designers, so the employees of the product department dare to say that their work pressure is the second largest, and other departments dare not say that their pressure is the largest.
Relatively speaking, the average salary of their department is also the highest except for the legal department.
...
Zheng Xuan, the organizer of the dormitory party, forgot about the May Day dinner after she got busy, and Li Yaolin had to remind her before she reacted.
Arriving at the silver beach, Zheng Xuan found Li Yaolin sitting under a parasol and drinking coconut juice, and asked: "Where are the two of them?"
Li Yaolin pointed to the two girls who were having fun at the beach: "Look, over there!"
Zheng Xuan: "..."
She simply sat down too, and waited for a while. Their roommates finally ran back tired from playing, and just wanted to give her a hug when they saw her, but she ruthlessly blocked them with her hands.
"You are wet, don't get close to me."
The two roommates: "Why do you feel that you have become ruthless, Brother Xuan?"
Despite this, they still went to take a shower first, and then reunited with them.
"Poor Mom" said: "I've always wanted to go to Xingzhou Island, but I didn't get a ticket. I didn't expect the beach here is so beautiful."
"Little Yellow Duck" asked Li Yaolin: "Does Sanniang also work here? Your boss's name is the same as yours, will you be mistaken for someone else?"
Li Yaolin: "..."
Zheng Xuan: "..."
The question is, should I tell my roommates that this "boss" is Li Yaolin himself?
