<h4>Chapter 530: Chapter 530 Mayor Dai is Convinced!_1</h4>


    Bai Xiaosheng answered and returned, and Bai Minghang was very relieved.


    In today’s society, many young people use work as an excuse to shirk their duties, neglecting their family members!


    Bai Minghang doesn’t like that.


    Nowadays, he rarely asks his son about his achievements in his career. In his opinion, happiness and good health is a blessing. Constantly talking about high sries and high positions is just a burden for the children andpletely unnecessary.


    Bai Minghang felt this way and said as much to his wife, and Li Qiuyun, Bai Xiaosheng’s mother, agreed with her husband in this regard.


    Therefore, the couple knew very little about Bai Xiaosheng’s achievements.


    Even less than Bai Fei and Bai Ran!


    When Bai Fei and Bai Ran came back to see Li Fengguan, they talked about Bai Xiaosheng with such enthusiasm and admiration that they almost saw their cousin as an idol!


    Only then did Bai Family Members be aware that Bai Xiaosheng had be the deputy general manager of Zhongjing City’s leading enterprise—Zhongjing Media!


    Bai Xiaosheng had returned to Zhongjing not long ago and had sought employment under the guidance of Yang Qian’er at Zhongjing Media. In four months, he had be the deputy general manager at Zhongjing Media!


    What an astonishing speed of promotion!


    Beyond their shock, the Bai Family Members began to see Bai Minghang and his wife differently, with their words full of praise and envy.


    Bai Minghang and his wife were also very proud.


    Unfortunately, the Bai Family Members, including Bai Fei and Bai Ran, didn’t realize that their information was outdated.


    Bai Xiaosheng was no longer the deputy general manager of Zhongjing Media, but the real general manager!


    He was also the chairman of the Zhongjing Media Industry Alliance!


    This pace of promotion was not just unprecedented in Zhongjing, but also in Anjiang Province!


    Upon learning that Bai Xiaosheng had be the deputy general manager of Zhongjing Media, the olddy Li Fengguan issued a strictmand to the family—not to seek Bai Xiaosheng’s help for favors!


    In the eyes of the olddy, Bai Xiaosheng’s sess was a result of his own efforts; while the family did not provide support, they were absolutely not to drag him down!


    So no Bai Family Member went to Bai Xiaosheng to seek a position.


    "You don’t need to worry about anything. Juste back, and we’ll have a full family dinner at your grandmother’s house tonight," Bai Minghang said with a chuckle.


    "Sure, no problem," Bai Xiaosheng replied with a smile, agreeing readily.


    After finishing the call with his father, Bai Xiaosheng re-entered Ji Mingyang’s office.


    Outside Ji Mingyang’s office, Bai Xiaosheng felt reflective.


    Unexpectedly, the ce they were going to visit tomorrow turned out to be Tianqing City and Dai Mingcheng, the Mayor of Tianqing, was sitting right there in the room.


    This was quite a coincidence.


    After entering, Bai Xiaosheng apologized again.


    The three of them chatted for a while, and Bai Xiaosheng suddenly noticed that Ji Mingyang’s demeanor became slightly peculiar when talking with Dai Mingcheng, as if they both had something on their minds.


    What had these two mayors been discussing while I was out?


    Bai Xiaosheng was curious but did not ask.


    It was not his ce to inquire.


    "Sheng, how are the preparations for the third phase of your reporting going?" Ji Mingyang asked, changing the topic.


    Bai Xiaosheng had reported some progress over the phone, including the developments in applying for patents abroad, which were quite promising and had made him very happy at the time.


    But the total call time hadn’t been more than a few minutes, so Ji Mingyang wasn’t fully informed. Now, after having learned from Dai Mingcheng about the gravity of the situation, he naturally wanted to understand more in detail.


    "Would you like to hear it now?" Bai Xiaosheng asked with a smile, ncing at Dai Mingcheng.


    "It’s all right, Dai is an old friend of mine! Trustworthy!" Ji Mingyang said, but he still added, "No need to repeat what you’ve already told me."


    "Still don’t trust me, eh?" Dai Mingchengughed heartily, showing no sign of displeasure.


    Bai Xiaosheng smiled.


    Although he hadn’t known Mayor Dai for long, relying on the observation skills honed by the Micro Expression Analysis System, Bai Xiaosheng was certain that he was undoubtedly an upright and proper person.


    Moreover, Mr. Ji is only willing to be friends with trustworthy individuals."


    Even if we take a huge step back, let’s assume for a moment that Dai Mingcheng has ulterior motives, what Zhongjing risks losing is just a provincial enterprise benchmarking position. Painful as it is, such a loss is bearable.


    Conversely, if Dai Mingcheng offends Ji Mingyang for such a position, provoking the mayor of Anjiang Province’s future economic center, that would be a true loss far too great to justify!


    After all, considering Ji Mingyang’s achievements, his promotion to the Provincial Party Standing Committee is almost without doubt.


    Bai Xiaosheng inadvertently came to know about these matters through Red Lotus and online sources.


    "Okay, then I will report back to both mayors," Bai Xiaosheng stated calmly.


    ording to Bai Xiaosheng, the project’s third phase is progressing extremely rapidly, and could be preliminarilypleted within the week.


    At the same time, the first batch of patents will pass primary examination within ten days! Such is the power of Kelson Corporation in Europe!


    "Which means, in ten days, we would be able to apply for the third stage!" Bai Xiaosheng continued, "Focusing on the achievements in patent development and application for the report, I believe it will gain the provincial leaders’ approval! However, I think it’s best to extend the timeline to two weeks, to ensure that weplete other aspects more securely and meticulously!"


    "After the second stage, you can, in such a short time,plete the work of the third stage and even apply for a batch of patents abroad?!" Dai Mingcheng looked at Bai Xiaosheng incredulously, even his voice changing.


    Difference is always a matter ofparison!


    He had just returned from the province today, managing to finish the second-stage application amidst the rush, and he thought he wasn’t slow!


    But across from him, the third stage was already more than halfway done.


    One week to wrap up, two weeks to perfect!


    The enterprise in Tianqing couldn’t catch up even if riding a rocket!


    In Dai Mingcheng’s eyes, Bai Xiaosheng had suddenly be something like a demon!


    This young man was moving way too fast!


    Dai Mingcheng sighed deeply, conceding defeat.


    Ji Mingyang’s expression softened and he nodded slightly. He had been overly anxious before, hoping that Bai Xiaosheng would elerate the pace. But now it seemed that Bai Xiaosheng’s progress was much, much faster than he had expected!


    Moreover, they were using the prehensive and steady, focus on breakthroughs" method simr to the second stage!


    This was good!


    "Once your patents are approved, the city can provide funding to promote them first within the Media Industry Alliance!" Ji Mingyang said with a smile.


    It was, indeed, hitting two birds with one stone!


    "But Mr. Ji, I came today to discuss the fourth stage with you," Bai Xiaosheng added.


    What, they’re already considering the fourth stage?!


    Dai Mingcheng was stunned to the point of disbelief.


    Even Ji Mingyang wasn’t without surprise, staring at Bai Xiaosheng. He was thinking of asking Bai Xiaosheng to speed up, but now it seemed that if he didn’t hold him back a bit, Bai Xiaosheng might just leave the...


    "Isn’t that too fast?" Even Ji Mingyang couldn’t help but ask.


    "Actually, there’s something I would like to discuss with you," Bai Xiaosheng said.


    He talked about the news he saw today and his spections concerning Tianzheng Media.


    Ji Mingyang and Dai Mingcheng were both taken aback.


    Tianzheng Media was moving frighteningly fast too.


    They’re all demons, way beyond our reach! Dai Mingcheng felt a bitter taste in his heart.


    The discussion on this topic went on for a while, and then the three of them talked about other aspects, even exploring cooperation between the two cities. Many of Bai Xiaosheng’s views even impressed Dai Mingcheng.


    The conversation went on for two hours.


    Finally, when the secretary came to remind him, Dai Mingcheng still felt the discussion was iplete.


    It was time for him to leave.


    Before departing, Dai Mingcheng shook hands firmly with Bai Xiaosheng, his eyes full of admiration and sincerity, "Bai Xiaosheng, Mr. Bai, I hope you can visit Tianqing when you have time! When that timees, allow me to y the host!"
