Zhang Wen's name

The "Loving and Caring People of Handong" work group.

"Comrades, based on the reports submitted below, I have discovered that a large amount of our agricultural products are unsold this year. I would like to hold an agricultural product trade fair."

"Governor Zhang's suggestion is excellent; we in Lüzhou strongly support it."

"We in Jingzhou also support it."

"We in Lincheng also support it."

"………………".

Zhang Wen was very pleased to see that everyone recognized his abilities.

"Since everyone supports this, I'll just state a few requirements."

"1. From now on, all rice and noodles for our government canteens will be sourced from the province."

"2. From now on, all the drinks served at our receptions in Handong will be local beverages."

"3. We need to increase subsidies for agricultural products."

"Comrades, the purpose of our economic development is to enable everyone to live a better life."

"Governor Zhang's words are insightful. We in Luzhou have a question."

"Lu Zhou, ask me whatever questions you have."

"Governor Zhang, since this is an agricultural product fair, shouldn't we have some flagship products? Otherwise, people won't come."

"Luzhou truly lives up to its reputation as an economically strong city. That's a great question. I've decided to use hairy crabs to break the deadlock."

"Governor Zhang, I propose that we use our Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs as our flagship product."

"Governor Zhang, I propose using the hairy crabs from Guhu Lake in Jingzhou."

"Jingzhou, you're overestimating yourself. Everyone knows that your Guhu hairy crabs aren't very well-known these days."

"Luzhou, ours are all natural. If it weren't for people impersonating us, we wouldn't have any trouble selling them this year."

"Oh, oh, oh, how can you blame others when you're not good enough yourself? How come our Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs are being impersonated and yet have a bigger reputation?"

Upon hearing this, the Jingzhou side fell silent. Yes, how come they were alright?

"Comrades, let me explain this to you. Only things that are widely known get counterfeited. Since Xiang Guhu has been counterfeited, we should promote it extensively. After all, even negative publicity is still publicity. As long as we ensure the quality, there shouldn't be any problems."

"Governor Zhang, we in Jingzhou admit that our understanding was insufficient."

"You Jingzhou should learn more from Luzhou. Look how much you've expanded this year, and your strawberry farm has expanded just as much. Now Jingzhou has the biggest problem."

Lu Zhou was very pleased to see Jingzhou being criticized.

"Yes, yes, yes, Jingzhou should come to our Luzhou to learn sometime. Look how famous and delicious our Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs are! Why don't you also call your Guhu hairy crabs Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs? After all, yours are of good quality too."

"Luzhou, we would rather starve to death than learn from you. Besides, what kind of talk is it for our provincial capital to learn from a prefecture-level city like yours?"

"Alright, Jingzhou, if you make a mistake, admit it; if you're going to be punished, stand up straight. Now let's discuss what to do with your hairy crabs."

"Governor Zhang, we from Lüzhou have something to say. We've almost finished ordering our hairy crabs for this year. Could we purchase a batch of Guhu hairy crabs and sell them as Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs? The quality seems about the same."

"Lu Zhou, your thinking is wrong. Why can't we build another brand? Besides, how can we, as state cadres, do something deceptive?"

"Governor Zhang, we apologize. I just thought their products were quite good. How about this, I'll talk to the wholesalers and ask them to let us order another batch of Guhu crabs at a slightly lower price for those who have already ordered our Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs. They definitely won't have any objections."

Zhang Wen was quite satisfied after hearing this; he thought it was a good idea.

"Luzhou, we sent them all invitations to our trade fair for the hairy crabs they ordered."

"Yes, Governor Zhang, I will make sure to arrange it properly."

"Comrades, each city can submit a few of its best products to participate in the meeting. From now on, we will arrange for people to collect all the grain in the Hanbei area. I have set a red line for them; the price will not be lower than the market price."

The cities in northern Hanbei were very excited.

"Governor Zhang, Mayor Xu is very grateful for your suggestion."

“………….”

"Comrades, I am the governor of Handong Province. This is what we should do. Our development cannot be separated from the support of agriculture."

"Comrades, if you have any good local specialties, you can report them to Vice Governor Zhao, and he will coordinate things for you."
