After a long while, Wang Jianye spoke softly to offer his advice.
“Zi’an! Our Ice City already has many unique tourist attractions, we don’t need another one. Besides, the Oroqen people are a brave and warlike ethnic group that has made great contributions to the country. Asking them to come down from the mountain to greet guests is really a bit outrageous.”
"What do you mean, 'coming down the mountain to pick up guests'? Director Wang, that's a really harsh thing to say," Qin Zi'an retorted with a laugh.
"If you're going to let them take photos with tourists, what is that if not entertaining customers?"
Qin Zian raised an eyebrow and explained with a smile, "They are Oroqen people, and their clothing and appearance are very particular. They are all good at singing and dancing. Do you think they are like us Han Chinese? Their greatest talent is drinking and bragging?"
"Even if we take a step back, are you completely without fault? Little Potato has already marched north to Harbin, so hurry up and invite the Oroqen people down the mountain to 'fight Little Potato'."
After Qin Zian said that, Wang Jianye was truly speechless.
However, what he said wasn't entirely unreasonable.
The main purpose of the Oroqen people's parade is to allow more people to understand this ethnic group, rather than to satisfy tourists' simple need to take photos.
The Oroqen people have their own unique costumes, which are sure to attract everyone's attention.
Taking this opportunity, I would like to introduce the heroic deeds of the Oroqen people in the past and their current situation...
Before long, more and more people will be able to learn about this endangered ethnic culture.
Culture needs to be inherited and promoted, and Qin Zian's proposed project can play a positive role in this regard.
This will not only allow more people to learn about the Oroqen people, but also enable the Oroqen people to become more prosperous.
Qin Zian explained his complete thoughts, and Wang Jianye gave them high praise.
But from beginning to end, Wang Jianye did not take any action.
Not only that, he kept dodging the issue and his work was nowhere near as efficient and decisive as before.
Seeing this, Qin Zian spoke frankly.
"Director Wang, stop with the nonsense. To be honest, you...you can't possibly be incapable of persuading the Oroqen people to come out of the mountains, can you?"
"Ha, ha, ha! How could that be? I'm sure I can get them here, you can rest assured."
Having his secret exposed, Wang Jianye could only manage an awkward laugh to ease his embarrassment.
Even so, Wang Jianye still insisted on sticking to his stubbornness to the end.
After all, Qin Zi'an's contributions to the tourism industry in Harbin have completely overshadowed his role as the director of the Harbin Culture and Tourism Bureau.
Wang Jianye was not the kind of person who was petty or calculating. He not only did not envy Qin Zi'an, but he also appreciated this talent even more.
Wang Jianye was well aware of Qin Zian's capabilities.
If they had just rejected Qin Zi'an and explained how difficult it was to invite the Oroqen people...
Qin Zi'an then invited the Oroqen people to perform on Central Street...
In that case, Wang Jianye has completely lost face.
For the sake of his so-called face and dignity, Wang Jianye decided to go all out.
"Zi'an, it's getting late, you should go back and rest. I should also go and chat with my old friends and let the Oroqen people parade on Central Street."
"A parade tomorrow?" Qin Zian chuckled and praised loudly, "Director Wang, as expected of you! You are truly capable."
Wang Jianye chuckled twice, wishing he could sew Qin Zian's mouth shut.
The Oroqen people, they are the Oroqen people!!!
Let alone the Oroqen people, even if you just randomly invite someone to go on a tour, there are still many things to discuss.
But Qin Zian, the sixth brother, completely blocked Wang Jianye's escape route.
They've already made that boast, so if they say now that a parade tomorrow isn't realistic... wouldn't that be a huge slap in the face?
Wang Jianye took a deep breath, agreed to the matter, and sent Qin Zian, the sixth brother, away.
...
The following evening, Central Avenue.
This time, Wang Jianye really went all out, pulling strings through several layers of connections to invite the Oroqen people over.
Qin Zian looked at the young man dressed in Oroqen ethnic clothing and couldn't help but look behind him again.
It was obvious that there was no one there.
Seeing this, Qin Zian took a step toward Wang Jianye and muttered a complaint in a low voice.
"Director Wang, you... after all this time, you only managed to invite one person? Where are all your old drinking buddies? Don't just focus on drinking, call them out and have some fun!"
"What do you know, kid?" Wang Jianye snorted and explained irritably, "Time is too tight, some people are still on their way. You keep patrolling, I'll go and urge them on."
After saying that, Wang Jianye fled from Central Street as if he were escaping.
It took Wang Jianye a lot of effort to find this young man from the Oroqen region.
Although half of the Oroqen people live in Harbin, the population is still very small.
Inviting a large number of Oroqen people to come over in such a short time is really not an easy task.
Is there such a way?
This boast has already been made, so we definitely can't let Qin Zian see it and laugh at us.
Wang Jianye sighed and immediately went to call for reinforcements.
Meanwhile, Qin Zian also gained a preliminary understanding of the Oroqen youth.
"Little Tiger, look at you! You've already come all this way, why did you bring any gifts?"
