Chapter 1009: Chapter 550: The City Government Connections Are Still Useful (Please Subscribe) _2

This time, Ding Yue planned to reach out to Guoxing Technology and also needed to contact Mist City Government building, so he made a call to Secretary Chang, the secretary of Governor Li.

"Hello, Principal Ding."

By now, Secretary Xiao Chang had become quite familiar with Principal Ding of Mist City Arts and Science University.

After all, Governor Li had already interacted with Principal Ding from Mist City Arts and Science University three times.

"Secretary Chang, hello, is Governor Li available today?"

Ding Yue asked immediately.

This matter could only be discussed with Governor Li when he was available, considering Governor Li’s position and his usually busy schedule.

"Governor Li is currently inspecting the high-tech park we’re planning. After the inspection, he will have a 20-minute break. Is there something important you need to discuss with Governor Li, Principal Ding?"

Secretary Xiao Chang asked.

"Yes, it’s about the graphite industry. I must discuss it further with Governor Li."

Ding Yue affirmed confidently.

When Secretary Chang heard it concerned the graphite industry, he knew this project was one of the very important ones for the management and future development of Mist City under Governor Li’s leadership, so he did not dare to delay.

"Alright, Principal Ding, I will speak to Governor Li, and after confirming, I will notify you about the time and place."

"That’s great, thank you, Secretary Chang."

"There’s no need for formalities, Principal Ding. Please wait for my message."

After finishing the conversation, Secretary Chang hung up the phone.

Ding Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

Things seemed quite promising; he should be able to meet Governor Li today without any issues.

When he met Governor Li, Ding Yue would share the current situation faced by Mist City Arts and Science University and Feiyue Group with him.

He believed Governor Li would certainly lend a hand.

After all,

the graphite industry of Feiyue Group was a major achievement for Governor Li in Mist City.

Moreover, this was initially an initiative led by Governor Li.

"Miss An, prepare the feasibility material for our graphite application in the military and aerospace fields; we may have to meet Governor Li this afternoon."

Ding Yue immediately instructed An Yujia.

"Okay, Principal Ding."

After receiving her orders, An Yujia immediately got up and went back to start preparing the materials.

This visit to Governor Li was mainly to facilitate connections, allowing Ding Yue’s Feiyue Group to officially engage with the aerospace and even the military sectors.

Thus, having the necessary materials ready was indispensable.

Otherwise, would he just go there with nothing but his words?

That would definitely not work!

If everything went smoothly this time, Ding Yue should be able to connect successfully with the domestic military and aerospace sectors.

It must be said, having connections within the City Government turned out to be quite useful.

At three-thirty in the afternoon,

Secretary Chang called Ding Yue, stating that from five forty to six ten in the evening, Governor Li could make time during his dinner break to meet with Ding Yue.

As for other times, Governor Li’s schedule was already very full.

Ding Yue could understand that, given that Governor Li was the head of the city, his daily schedule was packed, with hardly any time to spare aside from rest and meals.

Taking up Governor Li’s dinner time for this discussion made Ding Yue feel somewhat guilty.

"Okay, thank you, Secretary Chang. Five forty in the afternoon, at the cafeteria in the East District of the High-Tech Industrial Park, right?"

"Yes, Principal Ding."

"Alright."

...

Meanwhile, in Europe.

In Europe, the competition surrounding new energy battery technology has always been intense.

But ultimately,

Mantech Group from Europe took the lead in announcing a major breakthrough in their new energy batteries and would hold a press conference within a week, with the first batch of new energy batteries ready to leave the factory within a month.

This news, without a doubt, was very heartening for many enterprises around the globe.

Even companies in the United States were somewhat shaken.

For example, large international corporations like Fruit Phone and Tesla New Energy Car, although still maintaining cooperation with Ike Technology Group, had to consider changing their approach if Mantech Group was indeed as formidable as it appeared.

After all, if they didn’t keep up with the battery technology revolution, they were very likely to be phased out in the end.

However,

Ike Technology Group wasn’t exactly inactive.

They had reached an agreement on a fuel cell technology project in cooperation with a laboratory at California Institute of Technology.

The fuel cell project at California Institute of Technology had been nearly completed two years ago.

However, at that time, it had not yet attracted the favor of technology companies.

But now the situation was different; Ike Technology Group, lagging in graphene technology, could only collaborate with the laboratory at California Institute of Technology on their expensive fuel cell to work on new energy batteries.

Since the fuel cell from California Institute of Technology was already very mature, commercializing it in the fields of electronic products and new energy vehicles wasn’t too difficult, a problem Ike Technology Group was able to solve in a short time.

This was precisely why companies like Fruit Phone and Tesla didn’t leave Ike Technology Group.

Indeed,

The situation in America bore some similarity to that in Xia Country.

However, America’s Fruit Phone and Tesla didn’t leave Ike Technology Group to join Mantech Group as happened in Europe.

But domestically, Huawei Technology Group and Dami Technology Group abandoned Feiyue Group and switched to Mantech Group in Europe.

Throughout this period,

Global optimism regarding the development of new energy was very high.

Both domestically and internationally, whether it was stocks or funds, the new energy sector was flourishing.

Previously, some foreign netizens believed that institutions like Mist City Arts and Science University and Feiyue Group, with major breakthroughs in graphene, were impressive.

But now, as both Mantech Group and Ike Technology Group also announced their new energy battery technology, those foreign netizens, including some from within the country, started to praise Mantech Group and Ike Technology Group again.

They thought the graphene battery technology claimed by Feiyue Group, supposedly able to extend phone battery life by hundreds or even thousands of times, was simply bluster.

Whereas the new energy batteries from Mantech Group and Ike Technology Group, able to multiply battery life several times up to ten times, were deemed more normal and feasible.

Gradually,

On foreign networks, the battery longevity claimed by Feiyue Group and Mist City Arts and Science University prior was now seen by international netizens as an exaggeration by Xia Country.

Just as it was said long, long, long, long ago that the bolder the people, the greater the production!

They were utterly unaware.

That the technology developed by Mist City Arts and Science University and the success of graphene had already placed them at the forefront of the world!

...

Five o’clock in the afternoon.

Ding Yue had already arrived at the high-tech industrial park planned in the west of Mist City, which was part of the high-tech park area and currently in the preliminary stage of construction.

Governor Li often visited here during this phase, which showed how much he valued the development of the high-tech park in the western part.

Indeed.

This was an initiative led by Governor Li to drive robust development in Mist City, which obviously required serious attention.

Having arrived early, Ding Yue reached the East District of the high-tech industrial park and waited for Governor Li at the cafeteria.

According to the schedule, Governor Li would arrive at this cafeteria at around 5:40 PM to have dinner.

It’s worth mentioning that the cafeteria, which looked ordinary and served the workers of the high-tech park, was where Governor Li would dine today, reflecting his commendable down-to-earth character.

Soon,

The time quickly reached 5:42 PM.

At this moment, Ding Yue saw a city government’s designated minibus approach from a distance, which was most likely Governor Li and his entourage.
