Central Park.
In front of the stage.
After exchanging a few words and grumbling, Director Sun still did not get the answer he wanted. He left in frustration. Even the cleverest housewife can't cook without rice. Without actors, he can only vent his frustration on other aspects. But Director Sun is still one of the top stage directors in the industry. These two days, under his direction, there were no problems with the stage. Everyone saw this and understood why Party Secretary Dong asked Director Sun to help. An expert is an expert and cannot be compared to them. That's why some leaders felt there was no need to invite a director over. But after seeing Director Sun's stage setup, they kept quiet. This was also why the County's leaders ignored Director Sun's scolding. Director Sun is really capable, and this is his field of expertise. Laymen like them should not add to his troubles.
The stage setup is done in an orderly manner.
All that's left is the actors and the audience.
"Old Meng." Dong Xuebing turned around.
Meng Hanmei, who was still instructing her staff, heard Dong Xuebing and walked over. "Secretary, I am here."
Dong Xuebing asked. "How are the guests? Have you confirmed the number of people? Count the number of people and reserve the tickets. We need to prepare in advance. After all, there are only so many chairs, and we must reserve seats for the investors and guests. " Since it's a gala, and it's the largest gala in Jiaolin County, how can there be no audience? It can't be a performance for the investors. Furthermore, many stalls in the park had been rented out. Some are selling accessories, local products, food, and snacks. Dong Xuebing's goal is to create the atmosphere of a cultural festival and must let the residents participate. If the residents are all here to watch the gala, it's not right. They must open up some ticket sales as a token of appreciation. That's why the number of tickets will depend on the number of guests.
Meng Hanmei replied. "The County Government is in charge of contacting the investors. Because we have not confirmed the number of people, I also do not know the exact number."
A County Government staff replied. "Secretary Dong, we are not sure yet. Many investors had accepted the invitation, but we still do not know if they will turn up. We will only know when they arrive. But based on past experiences, more than half of the investors will turn up. It should be around 90 to 120 people."
Around 100 people?
Jiaolin County is considered one of the bigger counties in the province, and it is still attractive compared to the other counties Dong Xuebing was in. Even without Dong Xuebing's connections and the Investment Promotion Agency, only a dozen investors are willing to invest. Compared to Jiaolin County, Jiaolin County's overall strength is obvious. Also, Dong Xuebing believes there will be more than a hundred investors, and he is confident the Cultural Festival will attract more than double the number of investors. If this doesn't work, Dong Xuebing will not organize this event. Last year, Jiaolin County's investments were around 200 million RMB. That's why Dong Xuebing felt he must attract at least 1 billion RMB for this Cultural Festival.
"Where are the guests from the leaders' side?" Dong Xuebing asked.
Meng Hanmei smiled bitterly when she heard that. "Our Merchants' Cultural Festival has been reported to the city for approval, but there was no response. I took the initiative to invite a few city leaders, but they were not available. Some of them did not give a clear answer, and the province …"
Zhang Dongfang frowned. "None of the leaders are available?"
Meng Hanmei sighed. "Yes. None of them are available."
The City Government staff replied. "We had contacted the City's leaders, but they are the same as Director Meng. Although they did not say they will not be attending, they only said it depends on the timing. Anyway, they are …"
Everyone's face changed after hearing what Dong Xuebing said.
This is the first time Jiaolin County had organized such a grand event, and the City Government should at least give them some support. Even if they do not give them any real support, they should at least invite a few leaders from the Provincial Government or the City Government to support them and give the investors confidence. But … none of them? Not even a single leader is coming? This is too much of a blow to their enthusiasm. Also, it is normal for the leaders to attend such a large-scale investment fair, but they did not give Jiaolin County any face? It's impossible for them to look good. Everyone knows the City Government's relationship with Jiaolin County is strained after the Commission for Discipline Inspection investigated Dong Xuebing. Governor Fang had suppressed the investigation, but Bao Hong City's City Leaders had not agreed to it. Many people from the Provincial Government and City Government are unhappy with Jiaolin County's leaders. If not, they would have given them some support and encouragement.
"Secretary Dong, Mayor Zhang?" Meng Hanmei looks at them.
Zhang Dongfang thought for a while and said. "Let me try. Without the leaders as guests, this will not work. What will the investors think if they know about this? It will surely affect our investment fair. " Zhang Dongfang had placed a lot of importance on this year's Cultural Festival. It will be a win-win situation for both of them, and Zhang Dongfang can't help but do his best.
But Dong Xuebing's attitude is the opposite. "Old Zhang, forget it. You don't need to go and beg them personally. We will not force them. We will welcome the leaders if they come. If they don't come, so be it! We will do what we should do! We don't need to care about anything else! " Only Dong Xuebing, the County's Party Secretary, dares to say something so sensitive and controversial. No one else dares to say this.
Everyone looked at each other and did not say anything.
It's not because everyone thinks Dong Xuebing is right, but … they are used to Dong Xuebing's way of speaking.
Dong Xuebing also knows it will affect their investment fair if they do not invite the leaders as guests. But Dong Xuebing knows what he is doing.
Don't come?
It's up to you!
When the celebrity team that will be supporting this bro arrives, I won't be the one begging you. You'll be the one begging Jiaolin County for the tickets!
