Chapter 71: Trek



After the cooperation was confirmed, the official website of Xingzhou Island updated the notice that Wenhua Travel Agency is the only travel agency currently cooperating with Xingzhou Island, and also added transportation routes.

The reason for the special update is not only the request of Wenhua Travel Agency, but also because there are travel agencies outside that cheat tourists in the name of Xingzhou Island, using traditional routines such as "ticket cabin reservation", "50% discount fishing", and "Xingzhou Island surrounding product distributors" to deceive tourists. Their nature is similar to that of scalpers, except that they are named as travel agencies. Tourists often cannot distinguish which travel agencies are legally qualified and which are fake.

Wenhua Travel Agency is very famous, and its brand can be seen everywhere in the oil market. Tourists only need to recognize it and will not be easily deceived.

Netizens also discussed this in the forum:

1L: "I just heard that Xingzhou Island wanted the city transportation to operate a tourist line a while ago. I didn't expect it to happen so quickly and there is a through bus!"

2L: "This is not a city transportation bus, this is a travel agency bus!"

3L: "Is there any difference? I checked it out. It only takes 40 minutes from the high-speed rail terminal to Baoren Port Pier, and the ticket price is 20 yuan; it only takes half an hour from Biwan Station to the pier, and the ticket price is 15 yuan. Isn't this price cheaper than taking an online car-hailing service?!"

2L replied to 3L: "Aren't you afraid that you will go shopping before getting on the bus? Dog head.Jpg"

3L replied to 2L: "If the travel agency forces you to spend money, you can call and report it. I believe my mother will make the decision for us!"

4L: "Who is your mother, 3L?"

3L replied to 4L: “Why are you swearing? Get lost!”

[4L has been muted.]

5L: “I think what 4L meant is, why does your mother make the decision for us? Is she some kind of leader?”

3L replied to 5L: “My mother? The island owner! Although she hasn’t acknowledged me as her own, I am her biological son without any blood relationship!”

6L: “Fuck! Get lost! What bastard did you come from? That’s my mother!”

[6L has been muted. 】

7L: "Do you have to quarrel and cause trouble upstairs? This is a major issue concerning the rights of consumers, stop making trouble."

3L replied to 7L: "No, it's an internal message. Travel agencies in various places have received informal notices. If tourists going to Xingzhou Island need through-train services but don't want to be tied to consumption, local travel agencies must not use various methods of coercion or inducement to force the tourists, because if Xingzhou Island receives a complaint call, it is very likely to cancel the cooperation with the travel agency."

8L: "Hearing this, I instantly felt that Xingzhou Island is so awesome that Mandarin Travel Agency treats it so cautiously! And 3L revealed so much, could he be someone from Xingzhou Island?"

9L: "Impossible. Local people know that the first thing to do when joining Xingzhou Island is to sign a confidentiality agreement, so the employees' families there can't pry anything out of them about the identity of the island owner. Ahem, I'm just an employee friend, and I almost broke up with him because of this..."

10L: "Are you kidding me? If that's really the case, then the travel agency's through-train service is still very cost-effective."

11L: "Yeah, nowadays you can't afford to take an online taxi without a coupon. I took a taxi from the high-speed rail station to Xingzhou Island before, and it cost me 78 yuan!" 12L

: "A ride costs more than 40 yuan."

13L: "But after a quick look, it seems that the through bus does not have a fixed departure time."

In response, the travel agency responded that since they do not have a local travel agency at Biwan Station, tourists who need local travel services at Biwan Station need to contact the local travel agency one day in advance, and a special car will be arranged to pick them up.

There are also many types of through buses departing from the high-speed rail terminal with a large passenger flow. One type goes to Yuhai Park and Romantic Sea House first, and then to Baoren Port Pier. This type can often fill up a car in an hour, and even if it does not, it will be dispatched on time.

One type goes directly to Baoren Port Pier, and arranges a passenger car for about 20 people. Considering the current popularity of Xingzhou Island, it is not difficult to get 20 people. The fastest one can depart in half an hour, and the slowest one will not exceed an hour.

Of course, in order to prevent tourists from missing their flights, travel agencies recommend that it is best to contact local tour operators online or by phone so that local tour operators can make arrangements in advance.

Netizens are happy, but real estate developers are a little depressed. The transportation problem of tourists in Xingzhou Island has been solved, so what should we do?

The Former Residence of Lady Xian is also puzzled. It was agreed to form a tourism business circle, so how did Xingzhou Island sneak ahead?

Their scenic spot also cooperates with travel agencies, but there are not many tourists who travel independently. Many of them are tourists who travel in groups. Their scenic spot is often one of the many attractions that the group wants to visit. The tour guide brings them here to check in, burn incense, read about the life of Lady Xian, and then leave.

The popularity and popularity of Xingzhou Island cannot be compared.

...

Li Yaolin has no time to care whether the real estate developers are depressed or not. After the transportation convenience improved, she started to think about the "postal service".

Although there are commemorative stamps on Xingzhou Island, they are not issued by the post office, and there are no postcards commonly seen on the market.

There are two types of postcards in general scenic spots. One is self-printed by merchants, which requires buying stamps at the post office before mailing; the other is postage postcards issued in cooperation with the post office.

Now is the Internet age, all landscapes and messages can be sent to people who want to share through mobile phone software. Postcards are gradually being ignored from "carriers of cultural inheritance and emotional communication". Even if many people receive postcards, they will just put them in the corner to gather dust, so Li Yaolin is a little uncertain about whether to issue postcards.

Zheng Xuan and Lin Qitong were in favor of launching postcards. The former thought it was also a way to promote the cultural brand of Xingzhou Island, while the latter had a more lively idea.

Lin Qitong said, "Isn't there a ring whose marketing strategy is 'You can only customize one in your lifetime'? We can do the same. You can only buy one in your lifetime. In this way, the value of the postcard will be reflected!"

Li Yaolin: "..."

Zheng Xuan: "..."

Are you sure you want to copy homework so blatantly?

When talking about how to make postcards more valuable, Lin Qitong said with some resentment: "By the way, the first edition tickets for our Xingzhou Island are now being sold for more than 300 yuan each. It's a pity that I didn't have a ticket when I first came here, and I didn't get the first edition tickets later!"

Zheng Xuan said: "I know that Liang Ying, a part-time worker in our department, has a lot of first edition tickets. She said that everyone threw the tickets away as garbage at the time, and she collected dozens of them. She didn't expect them to be so valuable now."

The purpose of issuing the first edition tickets was just to leave them for tourists as souvenirs. It was not like now that the identity of tourists can be determined by numbering at the backstage, so they have a high collection value.

Only one in ten tickets of this edition remains today, and Liang Ying alone has collected dozens of them. If word gets out, I'm afraid many people will come to her to buy them.

Lin Qitong was about to call Liang Ying: "Before the price goes too high, I'll go buy one from her!"

Zheng Xuan ignored Lin Qitong. She said to Li Yaolin: "The cost of making postcards is low and it's not easy to lose money. You can give it a try. In addition, I think what Qitong said is not completely unreasonable. There can be no purchase limit on postcards, but some special commemorative stamps can be designed and limited in purchase..."

Li Yaolin nodded: "Okay, I'll let Vice President Qi talk to the post office about cooperation in this area."

She paused, looked through the window at the newly repaired lighthouse on the top of the mountain, and asked: "What do you think the first floor of the lighthouse should be used for?"

"What can it be used for, to store miscellaneous items?" Lin Qitong said.

Zheng Xuan said: "The layout should be opened up a bit. Although not everyone can go up to the lighthouse, the lobby on the first floor can still be open to tourists! I think it would be a good place to make an exhibition room. At present, we don't have an exhibition hall dedicated to promoting and displaying our culture of Xingzhou Island. We can make a cultural wall of the development of Xingzhou Island and display it in the exhibition room."

Lin Qitong asked: "Shouldn't the exhibition room be placed in a place like the reception hall where there are more tourists coming in and out and it is convenient for tourists to see it?"

"How many tourists will stop to look when passing by those places? And there are more people there. If everyone stops to look, won't it cause congestion? The room on the first floor of the lighthouse is very suitable. There is no need to put any display cabinets. Just design four cultural walls to display the development process of Xingzhou Island.

"Aren't many people very interested in the development history of Xingzhou Island? They can see it in the exhibition room. And we can contact the photographers who took pictures of rare animals, buy photos from them, hang them on the wall, and enhance the cultural brand image of Xingzhou Island. Also, ask the travel magazines if they have any stock, and send a few here, so that tourists can take a look..."

Li Yaolin and Lin Qitong were dumbfounded and applauded: "Brother Xuan, awesome! "

I have to say, after Zheng Xuan focused on his career, his mind worked really quickly!

"Brother Xuan, what about the display room..." Li Yaolin started.

Zheng Xuan waved his hands: "The display room must be under the jurisdiction of the publicity department. "

Lin Qitong: "..."

Don't add to our workload with just a few words, sisters!

Although Lin Qitong wailed in her heart, the task finally fell on the shoulders of the publicity and promotion project team. As the head of the team, Lin Qitong was assigned by Manager Song to do this.

That night, the lighthouse on Xingzhou Island lit up for the first time.

...

In the vast ocean, on the dark sea, a fishing boat was shaking violently, up and down in the dark night.

The wind was strong, the rain was heavy, the waves were very fast, and occasionally a fierce white light flashed across the night sky. For old fishermen with many years of experience, this is a sign of an approaching storm.

"Isn't it fixed yet? What went wrong? "The captain grabbed the railing of the boat and smashed the window anxiously. The man inside was already sweating.

He said, "There must be something wrong with the signal receiver. "

The captain's face was ashen.

An hour ago, it started to rain and the wind and waves began to get stronger. The captain was used to it and didn't take it seriously. As a result, the AIS anti-collision radar on the ship failed not long after.

Their small fishing boats were not equipped with high-end radars. They only had anti-collision radars to avoid running aground or colliding with other ships. But it broke down when they encountered a storm!

You know, a ship encountering a storm at sea will not necessarily capsize, but it is difficult for the crew to control its sailing direction. Once it is carried to a place with reefs by wind and waves, or encounters other ships, it is possible to be smashed to pieces.

The wind and waves were getting stronger and stronger, and the tilt angle of the hull was getting more and more exaggerated, as if the ship was in danger of capsizing at any time.

The crew said to the captain: "The storm is coming, let's hurry up and return! "

Another crew member said: "It's too late, we have to unload some fish to reduce the weight, otherwise we can't survive the storm!"

The captain made a prompt decision: "Unload!"

Although this unloading will cost money, it is better than losing your life!

The crew quickly unloaded some of the fish, and the captain also increased the speed of the boat to avoid being swept away by the increasingly strong wind.

However, it was night now, and a storm was approaching. The boat was shaking people dizzy and turned around. After the fishing boat got rid of the storm, they encountered fog again...

"Is there still no signal on your phone? "The captain cursed, saying that it was a bad omen for them to encounter all kinds of bad weather!

And just in order to get rid of the storm, they had used up all the fuel, and they didn't know if the remaining supplies would be enough for them to find the direction to return to the other side.

At this time, the crew suddenly shouted excitedly: "Lights, there are lights! "

Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a beam of orange light flickering on the sea shrouded in fog. It was bright but not dazzling, and it guided them in the fog.

The captain was shocked and drove the boat to where the lights were.

They sailed from darkness to dawn, and after more than five hours, they still hadn't seen land.

Just when they began to wonder whether this beam of light was a supernatural phenomenon or a "mirage", their mobile phones finally had a signal!

Dozens of missed calls popped up, and various messages almost crashed the phone. All this seemed to tell them how worrying their situation was on the night they lost contact.

They contacted their families and learned that the storm they encountered was caused by the storm that was forming in the Pacific Ocean.

The family members contacted them immediately after seeing the news, but found that they had lost contact! The

Maritime Department received the call for help and immediately dispatched a rescue team, but they did not expect that they took the initiative to contact before they were rescued.

More than an hour later, the rescue ship of the Maritime Department encountered their fishing boat and brought them back.

The captain and others were scared because when they met the rescue ship, they were still 20 nautical miles from the coast, and the fuel on the ship was just enough for them to sail back to the fishing port. If they had circled a few more times at sea, their ship would have run out of power long ago. When

mentioning the light that guided them back, the search and rescue personnel of the Maritime Department looked at each other and said, "According to the direction you pointed, it was probably the light from the lighthouse on Xingzhou Island. "

The captain and others were a little confused: "The lighthouse on Xingzhou Island? When was the lighthouse built on Xingzhou Island?"

"It was built not long ago and was put into use yesterday."

"But we saw this beam of light at a place of fifty or sixty nautical miles..." The captain calculated that his fishing boat had a speed of 10 knots, which means that if it was going at full speed, it could only sail 10 nautical miles per hour. After sailing for five hours, it was still 20 nautical miles away from the coast, which means that their ship was more than 70 nautical miles away from the coast at that time.

Under very good environmental conditions, the range of a general lighthouse can only be about 20 nautical miles. How can the lighthouse on Xingzhou Island shine so far?

And the magical thing is that when their mobile phones have a signal, the beam of light disappears...

The author has something to say:

The little mermaid with her hands on her hips: Can the landmark issued by the sea god be an ordinary landmark? !
