So it wasn't long before word spread through the Qinglin Scenic Area group chat that Qinglin Laboratory had developed an urban snowfall technology and was looking for a city to partner with for a trial.
At the You City Tourism Bureau, Li Mingjie picked up his phone as usual and checked WeChat. His girlfriend had sent him a message: "Honey, everyone at the scenic area is saying the lab has some kind of snowfall technology and wants to find a city to partner with for a trial."
His girlfriend was a team leader at the Qinglin Scenic Area.
In You City, a team leader at the Qinglin Scenic Area had a salary and career prospects that made her a suitable match for a civil servant.
Li Mingjie worked at the Tourism Bureau, so he naturally needed to keep up with the scenic area's situation. That was why he had asked his girlfriend to notify him right away whenever anything came up.
After all, the county paid the closest attention to the Qinglin Scenic Area. Opportunities always went to those who were prepared, didn't they?
Reading his girlfriend's WeChat message, he sensed there was more to it. Whenever Qinglin Laboratory had developed new technology before, You City had always been the first to benefit.
But this time, they weren't looking to work with You City. Were they planning to partner with some other city?
That didn't seem like a good sign. The county leaders would surely be very concerned about it.
The moment he heard the news, he picked up his phone and called his supervisor. He had to report it right away.
What Li Mingjie didn't know was that he had simply taken the bait Shen Li had dangled.
And he certainly wasn't the only one who took the bait.
