บท 109: Chapter 675: Praise from Foreign Fans
As National Day approached, Linhai Zoo began making relevant preparations.
The two red panda cubs were expected to be officially exhibited during the National Day holiday!
Since red pandas are not social animals, even though they are relatively docile and adult red pandas can stay together, having cubs around would be unsuitable.
Otherwise, Hong Dou might get very anxious, carrying the cubs around and being on edge.
So recently, Ling Ling, Shuai Shuai, and Ming Ming, the other red pandas, were moved to an exhibit next to the raccoon exhibit.
The red panda exhibit was planned to be expanded after the National Day holiday when there would be fewer visitors, creating a separate section for the cubs.
In his office, Fang Ye reviewed the materials submitted by the staff.
Recently, he had attended a meeting in the city, where the city officials wanted the zoo to apply for a 4A-level tourist attraction status.
Applying for a tourist attraction status had many benefits, such as increased support from various resources, more subsidies, greater media exposure, and a significant increase in the number of visitors, which would naturally boost the zoo's income.
However, it was a double-edged sword!
An increase in visitors would inevitably affect the overall experience.
Fang Ye had previously not considered applying because the current number of visitors was just right, providing a comfortable experience, with only a slight crowd during holidays.
Since the construction was funded by Green Leaf Coins, it saved a significant amount of money.
There had been no motivation to pursue this before, but with Linhai Zoo gaining some popularity on foreign social media, even Mayor Bai personally suggested it, aiming to boost Linhai's tourism industry. It was hard to refuse.
After reviewing the application materials, he looked at the design proposals submitted by the cultural and creative department.
Zhao Chan, who had collaborated with the zoo on several cultural and creative products and had a keen interest in this field, joined Linhai Zoo after graduating this year.
The new design submitted was a series of phone cases featuring cute animals such as giant pandas, red pandas, sika deer, foxes, Pallas's cats, and the recently added penguins and otters.
The designs had a cartoonish style, with lively colors and a fresh, clean aesthetic.
Otters swimming in the water, sika deer grazing—these adorable designs were likely to be popular among young artists and girls.
There were also couple versions.
For example, two red pandas chasing each other on tree branches, with each phone case usable separately or forming a complete picture when combined.
Fang Ye found the designs appealing and immediately approved them.
He called out to Lan Li, who was sitting across from his desk, "Check this out!"
Lan Li leaned over and exclaimed, "Wow, these phone cases are so cute! And they come in couple versions."
"When they're produced, how about we get a pair?"
"Sure! I like the Pallas's cat one, with its silly big face."
After handling these tasks, Fang Ye stretched, "Let's go live for a while."
Starting the live stream!
"They're here, they're here!"
"I missed you, Director!"
"Hello, Director! I've been watching your streams for so long, and I'm finally planning to visit your zoo during National Day."
"+1! I've already booked a hot spring room and am ready to enjoy!"
"I'm not planning to go out; I'll just watch the live stream from home! Last time I climbed Mount Tai, I regretted it. Got up early for the sunrise, but I was exhausted halfway up, and it was freezing at the top!"
"I'm so jealous! I wanted to visit the zoo too, but my girlfriend insists on finding some pink beach."
"Nowadays, many online scenic spots are filtered! Those so-called Instagram-worthy spots look nothing like the photos in real life."
"I got scammed last time. Saw a beautiful rainbow staircase in photos, but when I got there, the paint was peeling, and it looked awful. Can we get some real experiences?"
"Hehe, I've recommended Linhai Zoo to many friends. Director, how about a prize? Maybe a panda plushie?"
"Speaking of which, President Fei visited your zoo last time and loved the claw machine. Will there be similar activities during National Day?"
Though it had been a while since the last live stream, the chat quickly filled up!
With National Day approaching, everyone's minds were wandering, making it hard to focus on work or study.
The live stream chat was lively with discussions about National Day travel plans.
Fang Ye smiled, "Welcome to Linhai Zoo! We have many exciting activities planned for National Day. But remember to book your tickets in advance. You can follow our zoo's official account for more details!"
"What's today's stream about?"
"Take us to see the penguins!"
"Wait, does the zoo have penguins now?"
"Yes, and they sound just like donkeys! It's so funny!"
"Are the red panda cubs on display yet? I can't wait to see them!"
"Ugh, I want to see the foxes! It's been so long since we saw Xiao Qiao."
Fang Ye said, "Yes, the zoo has recently opened some new exhibits: the Golden Pheasant Forest, the Native Exhibit, and the Penguin Exhibit. The red foxes now live in the Native Exhibit! There are also otters there; we can check them out later.
Speaking of which, we recently introduced a batch of roe deer. They're still in quarantine, but you should be able to see them by National Day.
Let's start with the red panda cubs! We can take them out to the outdoor activity area to get them familiar with the environment."
As they walked towards the red panda exhibit, a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl spotted Fang Ye, her face lighting up with excitement. She waved, "Hello!"
In somewhat broken Chinese, she asked, "Hello, are you Director Fang?"
Fang Ye nodded kindly, "Yes, I am! Where are you from?"
The girl smiled, "I'm from the UK! I saw your video of petting lions on Twitter. It was amazing! So, I came here to visit."
"How do you like our zoo?"
"Haha, it's beautiful! I was just feeding pigeons in the plaza, and it feels like being in nature, not a zoo at all."
"Thank you for the compliment. I hope you enjoy your visit."
"Thank you!"
After taking a photo with Fang Ye, she happily left.
Viewers in the live stream chat were amazed, "Wow, Director, you have foreign fans now!"
"Linhai Zoo recently went viral on Twitter. Director Fang's nickname, 'The Great Druid,' has spread abroad."
"Nice, going international! Let foreigners see how beautiful our Chinese zoo is."
"This girl's compliment is rare. British zoos are highly regarded internationally!"
