Chapter 1119: Chapter 605: Two National Treasure Giant Pandas! (Please Subscribe)_2

As long as Governor Li helps, getting a national treasure, the giant panda, over here shouldn’t be a problem, should it?

It can’t be that Shu City wouldn’t give Governor Li some face, can it?

"There’s something else, Governor Li, besides this matter, I would like to ask for your help with."

Ding Yue said somewhat awkwardly to Governor Li.

"Oh? What’s the matter? Let’s hear it."

Governor Li asked with a smile upon hearing this.

"It’s like this, our Mist City Arts and Science University has been continuously building our campus the last two years. Now, we have a campus of 7500 acres, plus tens of thousands of acres of affiliated agricultural and forestry lands. We’ve established a bamboo base, a farm, a forest, and so on in the north to serve as an ecological teaching demonstration area."

Ding Yue started to explain the situation in detail to Governor Li: "Moreover, our university also possesses a professional team and environment for panda breeding. So, we were thinking, could we possibly get a panda over here, to be the jewel of Mist City Arts and Science University."

"Oh?"

Governor Li became quite interested upon hearing this.

Raising a giant panda inside a higher education institution is indeed a novel idea, but of course, this presupposes that the institution has the necessary conditions for it.

And Mist City Arts and Science University seems to indeed have these conditions; their environment is even better than that of Mist City’s zoo.

Mist City’s zoo does have giant pandas, and they’re very popular.

"Governor Li, if it’s inconvenient, that’s okay."

Seeing that Governor Li hadn’t expressed his opinion, Ding Yue said immediately.

"Hahaha, I think there’s nothing inconvenient about it at all. Your Mist City Arts and Science University is now a famous internet high school and is also a banner for our Mist City. Moreover, Mist City and Shu City are already brother cities. Using Gungun to deepen our brother cities’ relationship and to create a new image for your Mist City Arts and Science University, I think it’s no problem at all," Governor Li said after laughing heartily, quickly clarifying his stance.

He was supportive.

Principal Ding just mentioned that Mist City Arts and Science University has the conditions to raise a giant panda. So, if they were to raise one for the university, there could indeed be many benefits.

Such as, for instance, using this occasion to promote the city circle relationship between Mist City and Shu City.

And to increase the popularity of Mist City Arts and Science University as an internet sensation.

Although the term "internet sensation" is almost becoming a pejorative, here, when applied to Mist City Arts and Science University, it’s not derogatory at all.

Because the ’internet sensation’ that Mist City Arts and Science University displays is very positive and very proactive.

For example, the Book Ship Library, Archive, and the sunny big lawn of Mist City Arts and Science University.

"But Governor Li, how can our Mist City Arts and Science University actually acquire a panda?" asked Ding Yue, spreading his hands.

Governor Li clearly understood Principal Ding’s meaning and said right away, "Don’t worry about this, I’ll contact Shu City about it."

"Really? That would be wonderful!"

On hearing this, Ding Yue’s face lit up with joy, and he said to Governor Li, "With Governor Li’s help, our Mist City Arts and Science University can have a giant panda."

"Hahaha, Principal Ding, don’t be so optimistic. I can only mention it to Shu City Government for you; we’ll have to see if there is a suitable panda that can be sent over," Governor Li said, of course not promising too much.

But in reality, Ding Yue was very clear.

Governor Li had said that getting a giant panda for Mist City Arts and Science University would be beneficial to the city circle relationship between Mist City and Shu City, which suggested that there was a high chance of it happening.

"I’ll give Mayor Zhao of Shu City a call and ask."

Governor Li said.

"Thank you, Governor Li."

Ding Yue quickly expressed his gratitude.

With Governor Li taking the initiative to call Mayor Zhao of Shu City directly, the matter of the giant panda was mostly likely not an issue.

At least, that’s what Ding Yue believed.

"Never mind, I’ll just ask now."

Seeing that Longshun Liu hadn’t arrived yet, Governor Li decided to give Mayor Zhao of Shu City a call right then and there.

The phone call between the two city mayors lasted for about five minutes.

"Principal Ding, guess what."

After hanging up the phone, Governor Li returned to the sofa in his office and said to Ding Yue with a smile.

Seeing Governor Li smiling, Ding Yue didn’t need to guess to know that it must be good news. "Governor Li, what did Shu City say?"

"Hahaha, Mayor Zhao said that ever since the establishment of the Shu-Mist City Economic Circle, they have long wanted to gift us giant pandas to represent the friendship between our two cities."

Governor Li continued with a smile, "However, several giant pandas have already come to our Mist City Zoo. This time, Mist City Arts and Science University makes a good excuse."

Seeing Governor Li say this, Ding Yue knew for sure that there was a good chance.

With even Mayor Zhao of Shu City showing such an attitude, it probably wouldn’t be long before the Shu City Panda Base would contact Mist City Arts and Science University, right?

...

Shu City.

Shu City Panda Base.

The person in charge of the base, Gan Jun, received a phone call from the Shu City Government.

It was Mayor Zhao’s secretary.

"Okay, okay, okay, Secretary Jin, I got it, understood, understood. Hmm, alright. We will handle this matter well. Yes, yes, yes, just recently a new group of little ones has been born. Mm-hmm, okay, goodbye, Secretary Jin."

After the call, Gan Jun thought for a moment and then hurriedly went to arrange the tasks given by the Shu City Government.

They need to prepare two giant pandas for Mist City.

Yes, two. According to the phone, it was two pandas.

Governor Li had talked about wanting one giant panda on the phone with Mayor Zhao, but Mayor Zhao had thought it over and decided that since they were sending a giant panda and Mist City was responsible for the promotion, they might as well be generous and give two giant pandas.

And so,

The instruction was passed down to the Shu City Panda Base, and what Gan Jun received was Mayor Zhao’s directive to prepare two giant pandas to gift to Mist City in order to represent the deep friendship between the two cities.

Of course, to send the giant pandas over, as the person in charge, Gan Jun definitely needed to inspect the destination to ensure it had suitable conditions for raising giant pandas.

So,

The first thing Gan Jun did after receiving the instructions was to gather the staff of the Panda Base for a meeting, planning to organize an inspection team to visit Mist City Arts and Science University and inspect the breeding environment and conditions there.

If the breeding environment and conditions were not up to standard, Gan Jun would definitely report back to the Shu City Government; he would not easily agree to send the giant pandas.

But if the breeding environment and conditions met the standards, then for the deep relationship between Shu City and Mist City, Gan Jun naturally understood the decision made by the Shu City Government.

Back in the Mist City Mayor’s Office,

soon enough, Governor Li’s secretary received a call from the Shu City Government.

After a while, the secretary came over to Governor Li and said, "Governor Li, Shu City says they will prepare two giant panda cubs to be gifted to us in Mist City, but before that, the Shu City Panda Base needs to conduct an inspection of the breeding site for environmental and conditions."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yue’s face bloomed with joy.

Good gracious!

I asked for one, but Shu City is giving us two – that’s what brother cities are for!

"Principal Ding, what do you think?"

After hearing this, Governor Li looked at Ding Yue and asked, "Do you think Mist City Arts and Science University can handle two Gunguns?"

"Hehehe, if it’s possible, that would be the best," Ding Yue replied, clearly not minding an extra Gungun.

Two would be even better!

"Then follow up with Shu City Panda Base on behalf of Mist City Arts and Science University. When they come for the inspection, it will be up to your university’s ability to manage two lovely Gunguns."

Governor Li didn’t involve himself too much in this matter, only giving a heads-up to Shu City.

As for whether Mist City Arts and Science University will be able to look after the two giant pandas, that will depend on the university itself.
