As we all know, Zibo City had already become a hot topic around this time last year.
Zibo City attracts tourists from all over the country to enjoy barbecue thanks to its affordable prices and sincere hospitality.
Besides the famous barbecue restaurants, the Badaju Convenience Market is another must-visit spot in Zibo City.
Before this, no one had imagined that a vegetable market would become a famous tourist attraction, drawing visitors from all over.
Local specialties of Zibo City, such as fried pancakes, purple rice cakes, and longevity cakes, were all snapped up by tourists.
Naturally, the Shandong Provincial Bureau of Culture and Tourism also regarded the eight major bureaus as one of the important places for exchange and inspection, and invited Qin Zian and Wang Jianye to take a look.
Having learned from Grandpa Zhao's experience, the Lu Di Culture and Tourism Bureau made thorough preparations before embarking on its inspection.
Immediately, staff from the Culture and Tourism Bureau contacted the businesses in the eight major bureaus, urging them to make sure to put on a smile.
Therefore, Qin Zian and his group saw the smiling service of the merchants as soon as they arrived.
Their smiles weren't forced; they were genuine.
It was clear that they were laughing very happily and relaxedly.
"The merchants are in high spirits; it's rare to see an entire street of shopkeepers smiling so happily. They completely lack the 'work ethic' that young people talk about these days. It's clear the Shandong Provincial Bureau of Culture and Tourism has done a great job..."
Wang Jianye delivered a long speech demonstrating high emotional intelligence, and the Shandong Provincial Bureau of Culture and Tourism echoed his praise.
This exchange of compliments between the two sides really piqued Qin Zi'an's interest.
Undeniably, Qin Zi'an initially implemented the "smiling service" policy with the tourists' best interests in mind, hoping to provide them with better service.
But aside from that factor, there is another very important reason: to create a spectacle.
Whether it's the toothless old man in Harbin who doesn't like to smile, or the spicy hot pot owner in Tianshui who manages a forced smile, their essence is that they don't like to smile.
After Qin Zi'an promoted their service with a smile, they went from not liking to smile to providing smiling service, and this contrast was quite charming.
In contrast, the merchants from the eight bureaus of Zibo City were all very happy, and their smiles were genuine.
Given Qin Zi'an's perverse sense of humor, if he wanted to create a contrast, he wanted to make them unable to laugh.
Therefore, Qin Zian took pictures of the thriving scene of the Eighth Bureau and posted them on his social media platform.
"Look how happy the merchants in the Eighth Bureau are! Can't we send some tourists over so they can see what the world is really like?"
As soon as Qin Zian posted his social media update, he was bombarded with notifications of people following him.
The actions of the leaders and cadres beside him were also exceptionally synchronized; they all took out their phones and checked Qin Zi'an's social media status.
Faced with this situation, Qin Zian silently looked down at the wording of his post.
I mean, this update seems pretty normal, right...?
Right?
It's pretty normal.
Compared to the questions Qin Zian was asking, Wang Jianye felt like he had thorns in his back.
Ever since they arrived in Lu, Qin Zian has never had a moment of rest.
First, they climbed Mount Tai on the night of Qingming Festival, and the legs of these people from the Shandong Provincial Bureau of Culture and Tourism are still sore.
Then last night, he drove his tricycle out to pick up passengers, which once again refreshed everyone's understanding of Qin Zi'an.
Now that the Eighth Bureau has arrived, Wang Jianye thought Qin Zi'an would conduct this trip in a well-behaved manner, but instead, he immediately showed him the "wickedness of society".
Faced with this situation, Wang Jianye couldn't help but sigh.
It wasn't that Wang Jianye thought Qin Zi'an's behavior was particularly despicable, but rather that he worried others wouldn't accept Qin Zi'an's publicity tactics.
After all, not everyone can accept such a novel approach; it's better to be more cautious.
Therefore, Wang Jianye gave an awkward laugh, intending to use his high emotional intelligence to steer the conversation away from the issue.
Before Wang Jianye could even speak, Director Zhang began to speak confidently.
"Director Qin, please feel free to promote our products. Our Lu Di Culture and Tourism Bureau has done an excellent job. No matter how many tourists come, they will not show any signs of distress and will continue to serve every guest with a smile."
"Director Zhang, Zi'an didn't mean to question you. He just can't sit still and wants to stir things up. Please don't take it to heart," Wang Jianye said with a smile.
Director Zhang waved his hand, his face still beaming with a bright smile: "I understand! Young people like this kind of publicity, they say it's down-to-earth. Before the New Year, we even released a special cultural tourism promotion song in Shandong, I don't know if you've heard it."
Upon hearing Director Zhang's words, Wang Jianye wore an awkward yet polite smile.
What kind of cultural tourism promotional song is this?
How come he doesn't seem to have heard it?
If I don't respond, wouldn't it be too awkward?
Compared to Wang Jianye's unease, Qin Zian seemed much more relaxed and didn't find the situation particularly terrifying.
Everyone here is involved in cultural and tourism promotion, and our main goal is to sell local products and services.
As for the method, as long as it's effective, that's fine.
And so, without any psychological burden, Qin Zi'an accepted Director Zhang's words and even sang the cultural tourism promotion song.
“My surname is Dong, from Da Dongshan.” Qin Zi’an smiled and looked at Director Zhang. “Director Zhang, you’re talking about this cultural tourism promotion song, right?”
"Yes, yes, yes! That's the song. It was a popular cultural and tourism promotion song all over the country back then."
Director Zhang said this with a smile, and even gave a live performance on the street.
Everyone was laughing heartily, but Wang Jianye's face showed a conflicted expression...
He's in a state where he doesn't know whether to cry or laugh.
It's not that Wang Jianye had any problem with Director Zhang's rendition of "My Surname is Dong," but rather that he genuinely couldn't accept everyone's acceptance of Qin Zi'an's antics.
Although this is a good thing, if everyone accepts and agrees with it, Wang Jianye's superiority will not be demonstrated.
Wang Jianye sighed inwardly, silently deciding that he would treat Qin Zian even better and make him realize that he was the best boss.
Only in this way can Qin Zi'an avoid running away to other cultural and tourism bureaus.
With the release of the song "My Surname is Dong", the cultural and tourism cooperation between Harbin and Shandong has been strengthened once again.
Amidst this joyous and peaceful atmosphere, a figure embodying the spirit of collaboration between the two regions emerged.
