Chapter 34. Typhoon

 Li Yaolin is not sure whether the system will allow her to cooperate with Fang Xinhua to develop a diving base, but judging from the fact that she invested in Qianlai Tourism in the name of the company and gained actual control, the system will not prevent her from expanding her business.

     However, the boundaries of this cooperation must be clear. The most important point is that there cannot be any business cooperation that exposes the existence of the system. At the same time, the initiative to carry out diving activities must also be in her hands.

     Although it is still not sure how Fang Xinhua wants to cooperate with her, it is clear that Fang Xinhua cannot be allowed to open a diving shop on the island. At most, he can join by investing in the diving shop, and only get dividends every year without participating in the actual operation. in operation.

     This is mainly to reduce differences in cooperation. For example, the development of entertainment projects will inevitably cause damage to the marine ecological environment. Li Yaolin has a system in place and can control this at any time. However, if Fang Xinhua is allowed to participate in the operation, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not indulge in environmentally damaging behaviors for the sake of profit. When the two parties disagree on this matter, a series of conflicts will inevitably occur.

     Early the next morning, Li Yaolin ended her trip to Semporna, flew to Kota Kinabalu first, and then returned home from Kota Kinabalu. After passing the customs, she took the train back to Yangshi.

     She stayed in Yangshi for one more day, visiting her roommate’s rented apartment and picking up all her things. She left Yangshi back to Yóushì the next day.

     Coincidentally, after she returned from Malaysia, the weather forecast said that a tropical cyclone was forming in the Pacific Ocean and gradually upgraded to a typhoon.

     Now, not only countries in Southeast Asia are busy preparing for typhoons, but Lingnan Province also frequently sends weather forecasts to remind everyone to pay attention to the path of typhoons.

     After the typhoon made landfall in the Philippines and gradually approached Lingnan Province, the province issued a typhoon warning for the entire province and launched an emergency response.

     This means that Xingzhou Island will also be closed for a period of time.

     The typhoon is expected to land in Lingnan Province the day after tomorrow, and it has been raining continuously since today. When the typhoon passes, it will rain heavily for at least a few days…

     Li Yaolin pinched her eyebrows and called the employees for a meeting.

     At the meeting, Li Yaolin arranged tasks for everyone. Issue announcements about island closures when necessary, close ticket sales channels when necessary, and arrange maintenance of buildings and equipment on the island when necessary.

     The city has not issued a notice to suspend work and classes, so although employees on the island do not have to receive tourists, it is not considered a holiday. Li Yaolin arranged for several people to take turns. If a typhoon hits Yóushì directly, all activities will be suspended. 

     After the meeting, Li Yaolin went to find Long Feng and the two of them: “Would you like to go back to the other side for shelter first? If a typhoon lands near Yóushì, I’m afraid there will be no ships to pick you up.”

     Long Feng waved his hand: “This typhoon is not expected to exceed level 13. It cannot lift the roof of the staff dormitory. We can just stay here. It will also facilitate us to monitor the situation of the turtle eggs at any time.”

     Li Yaolin was in awe, and in order to lighten the atmosphere, she joked: “Then we will have to let you accompany us to survive on an isolated island.”

     Her humor amused Long Feng and the two of them, and they laughed.

……

     In the past two days, people all over Lingnan have been paying attention to the movements of the typhoon. As a result, everyone found that the movement of this typhoon was a bit coquettish.

     After attacking the Philippines, it originally headed towards Lingnan, but as it went along, it slowly turned a corner, forming a C shape, bypassing Lingnan and heading towards Taiwan.

     Lingnan netizen: “?”

     Ah, that’s it?

     What’s wrong with you, Lingnan, do you need to avoid me like a snake and a scorpion?

     #A typhoon that doesn’t take a holiday is not a good typhoon#

     #This typhoon is a bit timid#

     #Typhoon perfectly bypasses Lingnan#

     The Internet is ridiculing the location of this typhoon, but for the government, this is good news. After all, even if it is fully prepared, the typhoon attack will still bring a lot of economic losses. Except for netizens, no one really Like the arrival of typhoon.

     Li Yaolin also breathed a sigh of relief. This meant that the island no longer needed to be closed. She notified her employees to come back to work and issued an announcement to resume normal business.

     However, although the typhoon did not hit Yóushì, it did bring a few days of rainy weather to Yóushì. Except for the fishermen who took sea fishing as a class, there were not many tourists visiting the island.

     People who landed on the island thought that the climate on the island was the same as that on the other side. Although it was not too bad, it was definitely not much better. Unexpectedly, when they were at the pier, the sky was still gloomy, but after landing on the island, they unexpectedly saw Tyndall Phenomenon^[1]The Tyndall effect is a phenomenon that occurs when light scatters off of particles in a medium, making the path of the light visible. This effect can be observed at beaches when light rays pass … Continue reading

     They saw dark clouds covering the sky above Xingzhou Island, as gloomy as cotton soaked in ink, ready to fall from the sky at any time.

     At this time, a beam of light passed through the clouds and squeezed out from the gap. The golden light fell on the sea. In an instant, it was like a drop of golden liquid dripping into the blue sea. Not only did the sea fail to swallow it up, but it let the entire The sea surface is radiating brilliant colors.

     Immediately afterwards, beams of light broke through the clouds, like a golden knife, cutting through the thick clouds sharply and gently, pushing aside all the darkness, giving light to the earth and the ocean.

     The sea seems to have calmed down, the waves have become smaller, and the buoys on the sea surface no longer float up and down, left and right. The white-bellied sea eagle spread its wings under the beam of light, and three green sea turtles emerged from the water and stretched their necks, seeming to be watching this beautiful scene.

     Even the tourists who saw this scene couldn’t help but hold their breath, for fear that the noisy sound would destroy this moment of peace.

     “Click”

     The sound of the shutter sounded. It turned out that a tourist who had come to his senses took out his camera and started the crazy photo mode.

      Long Feng, who saw this scene for the first time on the island, also sighed: “It’s so beautiful.”

     He has been to Xingzhou Island for several days. He has seen the white sand beach and admired the water quality here, but he is focused on studying green sea turtles. To him, all the scenery is just a ruler to measure whether it is suitable for the survival of marine life. .

     But this time he rarely raised his head, and he was stunned for a moment by the beauty of the Tyndall phenomenon. It seemed as if there was a voice in his heart reminding him that no matter how busy he is, he should rest, and no matter how obsessed with work, he should relax appropriately.

     Long Feng was touched in his heart. He returned to the office, took out his work diary and started writing.

     He also has a say in whether the Xingzhoudao protected area can be approved for project establishment.

     He had no intention of commenting before, but now, he felt that he should give a few good words to Xingzhou Island. After all, this was a place chosen by the green sea turtles on their own. In other words, it was not Li Yaolin who established the reserve, but this group of creatures closely related to the marine environment.

     Everyone thought that the Tyndall phenomenon could also be seen on the other side. However, when they posted the photos online, a netizen from the same city sent them photos taken at the same time on the other side. There was no golden light, no Tyndall phenomenon, and even the sky. It’s still raining!

     Originally, some people wanted to know if this picture was from P, but when they saw that the source of the photo was Xingzhou Island, they were relieved: “Xingzhou Island, that’s fine. There’s nothing surprising, after all, that island is magical. It’s not just this place.”

     Some netizens from the same city curiously asked them what was going on, and they reported the “special” features of Xingzhou Island in detail:

   1L: “Haizi, you know, right? It’s rare to see it anywhere else for a hundred years, but you can see it every now and then on Xingzhou Island.”

   2L: “The climate on the island is like two different worlds from that outside the island. When the weather is good, standing on the pier can melt away the heat. However, although the sunshine on the island is bright, it will not cause people to faint from heat stroke. You can wear a swimsuit and play on the beach in the middle of the day, and you won’t get sunburned even if you don’t wear sunscreen.”

   3L: “There are a lot of vegetation on the island, and the amazing thing is that there are very few mosquitoes! I was lucky enough to stay on the island for one night, and I didn’t get bitten even without using mosquito repellent or mosquito coils!”

   4L: “If the weather in Lingnan is like my mother’s face, then the weather in Xingzhou Island is like my strong heart. No matter how stormy and hysterical you are, I will be calm and peaceful.”

  5L: “Isn’t it the peaceful place upstairs? It’s funny.jpg”

   4L: “Go away! I’m not joking with you, just ask the fishing guys on the island. Whenever it’s windy or rainy, they still do it regardless of the weather. It’s not because they like fishing so much that they forget life and death, but because they know the fishing on the island. The weather is not affected much and the safety factor is high. ”

   6L: “I know there is a sea fishing UP owner who often broadcasts live fishing on Xingzhou Island. His name is ‘Brother Hai’, and his live broadcast number is Dou 09****26. You can follow him.”

   7L: “Am I the only one who wants to know why you can stay on the island?”

  3L: “Hey, we are lucky and met the island owner. If you land on the island, you can try your luck at the convenience store. If the island owner is soft-hearted, maybe he will allow you to stay overnight.”

   8L: “From what you said, does this Xingzhou Island look like a paradise on earth?”

   4L: “It can be said that sometimes before landing on the island, I was still in the human world, but after landing on the island, I seemed to be in a fairyland. It felt like Xingzhou Island and the shore were not in the same plane.”

   3L: “What’s even more strange is that since the development of Xingzhou Island, fishermen have been able to catch dozens of kilograms of fish every day, but fishing boats can’t catch a single fish. There is a saying in the local fishing village that there is a spirit on that island. Bless you. The weather station originally predicted that this typhoon would land in Biwan New District, but it turned out to be frightened and rolled away. “

     Regarding this typhoon, a netizen posted an anthropomorphic video based on its path. The gist of the video is that after the typhoon hit the Philippines, it came towards Lingnan with great momentum. As a result, it encountered a tough opponent 200 kilometers away from Yóushì, it got beaten up, and then cried and detoured to Taiwan.

     This video was only ten seconds long, but it was lively and interesting and made many netizens laugh. After being forwarded by major self-media, the number of views reached tens of millions.

     After seeing what netizens in Yóushì said, everyone realized that this seemed to be the case, so they not only became familiar with Xingzhou Island, but also left a very deep impression on Xingzhou Island. They were preparing to travel to Yóushì during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xingzhou Island has also been added to the itinerary.

     Even the next day, the official media of the Yóushì City used a photo of the Tyndall phenomenon on Xingzhou Island as its cover, followed up on the establishment of the protected area, specifically mentioned Xingzhou Island, and praised its pollution control actions.

     When Li Yaolin saw the push news and the reminder on her mobile phone, he remembered that tomorrow was the city government’s theme meeting on “Developing Rural Tourism.”

     “It turns out it’s already the end of July!” Li Yaolin found that after getting busy, she became less and less aware of the passage of time, and she became more and more comfortable in handling matters related to the development and management of the island.

     In the past, she always stared at the Poseidon Holiday APP, worrying about the few tourists and worrying about spending less and less money. Now, although she still has very little funds in hand and has a “million-dollar turnover” task on her mind, she is not as anxious as she used to be.

……

     Fang Xinhua probably saw the news, so he hurriedly called Li Yaolin and asked her to meet to discuss cooperation in the diving project.

     As Xingzhou Island frequently appears on the Internet and official media, more and more cultural and tourism companies are eyeing the big cake of Xingzhou Island. Fang Xinhua is worried that he will not be able to drink soup if he is too late.

     Li Yaolin originally wanted to hand it over to the Little Mermaid, but suddenly changed her mind and decided to interview Fang Xinhua in person. She said: “I have to attend a meeting with the city government tomorrow morning. Can I do it in the afternoon?”

     “Of course. Then I can book a private room at the International Hotel and have lunch together?”

     Li Yaolin said: “There is no tea in the International Hotel, so why not go to Minghui Tea House?”

     “You want to drink tea? That’s fine. Let’s go to Minghui Tea House. I know their boss well and put a few cans of tea there.” Fang Xinhua said proudly.

     After hanging up the phone, Li Yaolin asked the little mermaid: “Can you come with me tomorrow to discuss project cooperation?”

     The little mermaid showed a shy expression: “Does the island owner want to see me?”

     Li Yaolin: “You’re overthinking this. I just want to practice my negotiation skills, but I’m afraid I won’t be good at dealing with this kind of situation.”

     Little Mermaid: “How could it be possible? Didn’t the island owner do very well last time he invested in Qianlai Tourism?”

     Li Yaolin said: “After all, you still don’t want to go with me.”

     “After all, the island owner just wants to see me. Why not to admit it? The island owner is just interested in me, right? Yes, after all, I’m a beautiful mermaid! Beauty is also a kind of worry~”

     Li Yaolin: “…”

     The garlic paste is strong.

     The little mermaid said: “Although I can’t show up to help the island owner, I will always be there! As long as the island owner opens the APP, I can provide help to the island owner at any time!”

     “When you get off work on time every day, who are you kidding by saying nonsense like ‘always here’? And you keep looking down at your phone when talking to others. That’s so rude.”

     “Island owner, please put on your headphones!”

     “You have so many tricks up your sleeve.” Li Yaolin complained, but she honestly took out the Bluetooth headset from her backpack and put it on.

     I thought there would be human voices coming from the earphones, but it turned out that there was only the sound effect of the wave. But what made Li Yaolin feel weird was that she actually understood it.

     The wave seemed to say: “Hello, island owner!”

     Li Yaolin took off her headphones, and the sound of the waves faded from her mind. When she put her headphones back on, those voices appeared in her mind again.

     Li Yaolin: “…”

     Although it’s a bit supernatural, this style of painting is quite in line with the style of Poseidon Holiday APP, isn’t it?

     Just get used to it.

     Li Yaolin accepted it well and attended the theme meeting in high spirits the next morning.

     At the meeting, the mayor who presided over the meeting conveyed the concept of ecological civilization that “lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets” and initiated a vote to select three “ecological restoration and management demonstration areas” to represent Yóushì in the national competition. Selection of ecological civilization construction demonstration areas.

     There are many scenic spots that have been selected. In addition to the coastline of Yuhai Park, there is also the original oil shale mine. After oil shale mining stopped here, it was transformed into an open-pit mine park. It took eight years and a lot of investment. As the infrastructure was gradually improved, it became the favorite scenic spot for weekend outings by residents of the oil city.

     In addition to these old scenic spots that have been developed and managed for many years, Xingzhou Island is also on the list as a newly developed scenic spot.

     The inclusion of Xingzhou Island on the list surprised many people. It was not that they felt that Xingzhou Island was not qualified, but that they were surprised by its “youngness”. Which other scenic spots did not take several years to achieve some results? However, Xingzhou Island has only been developed for two months, and the surrounding water quality is so good that it is amazing. How on earth is this achieved?

     This voting will not be done onsite. The government will initiate voting online at that time. 

     In order to let the citizens of Yóushì know as much as possible about these scenic spots, official media will be arranged to shoot videos and conduct interviews.

     The official communicated with Li Yaolin, who said she would cooperate with the official in carrying out relevant work.

     At the end of the meeting, Li Yaolin exchanged business cards with several representatives from cultural tourism companies before taking a taxi to Minghui Teahouse.
