Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God-Chapter 979 - 978:
A few months ago, when Lin Fan was still a delivery man, he never dared to imagine that he would become a guest invited by the mayor of the provincial capital city.
Hang City is the capital of Jiangnan Province, the largest city in Jiangnan Province, and also the most economically developed city.
When Lin Fan took the college entrance exam, his first choice was to come to Hang City because it had the best universities in Jiangnan Province, the most universities, and a vibrant community of talented people.
Lin Fan's hometown, Tianhai City, is an economically underdeveloped prefecture-level city within Jiangnan Province. The students there yearn to study in big cities. Hang City, being the largest city in the province, became the ideal choice for many, and Lin Fan was no exception at the time.
However, Lin Fan ultimately did not get into the best school in Hang City and instead went to Yun City, which became a regret for him. After graduation, Lin Fan stayed and worked in Yun City, and Hang City gradually became a distant memory.
Lin Fan once thought that there was no need for him to visit Hang City in his lifetime, and even if he did come, it would only be as a tourist.
Coming here to talk business, and with the mayor no less?
This was something unthinkable before, but now it's a living reality.
As soon as Lin Fan arrived at the city government, he received a warm welcome. Secretary Chen personally came to greet him at the entrance, immediately welcoming Lin Fan upon seeing him. This was the mayor's order, apparently afraid that the security guard at the door might inadvertently offend Lin Fan.
Indeed, this was Lin Fan's first visit to the Hang City Government, and the security guard would certainly not recognize him. If Lin Fan were to be stopped, it might cause him displeasure.
It can be said that the mayor considered this thoroughly, showing the importance placed on Lin Fan, who was not just an ordinary guest but a distinguished guest among distinguished guests.
For no other reason, chips are the future. Lin Fan, who owns the Extraordinary Chip Factory, practically holds the future in his hands. It can be said that Lin Fan would receive such treatment wherever he goes.
"Mr. Lin, you've finally arrived. The mayor has been waiting for you all morning, just wondering when you would arrive!" Secretary Chen said with a smile.
Lin Fan smiled and said, "I'm really sorry, I was delayed by something and just got here now. I'm sorry to have kept the mayor waiting. Please, Secretary Chen, lead the way."
"Please, Mr. Lin," Secretary Chen said with a smile and led the way into the city government building.
As an outstanding entrepreneur invited to the Hang City Government, it was unimaginable for the former Lin Fan, but at this moment, Lin Fan's mindset was very calm. It was not his first time dealing with officials of the mayoral level.
In Tianhai City, he received a warm welcome from both the municipal party secretary and the mayor. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
In Yun City, Lin Fan was already a favorite in the mayor's eyes.
Moreover, Lin Fan was always like this, regardless of whether the other party had a high position or status, he would neither grovel to the former nor look down on the latter.
Now, as the richest man in Yun City, Lin Fan was still the same as when he was a delivery man.
Neither servile nor overbearing!
This was Lin Fan's inherent attitude towards life.
"Mr. Lin, please wait a moment, and have a seat. The mayor is on a phone call. Once he's done, you'll be able to meet with him," said Secretary Chen.
Lin Fan acknowledged with a sound and sat down nearby.
Secretary Chen said, "Mr. Lin, please wait for a moment; I'll be right back."
Secretary Chen excused himself for a while, and Lin Fan sat alone in the hall, waiting.
"Lin Fan, is that you? Is it really you?"
Suddenly, a girl with glasses approached, scrutinizing Lin Fan with a look of incredulity and asked.
Lin Fan looked up and recognized the girl; she was actually his high school classmate!
"Ma Xiaoli!" Lin Fan said with a smile, "What are you doing here?"
The girl with glasses said happily, "It really is you, Lin Fan. I almost didn't recognize you. We haven't seen each other in years, and you've changed quite a bit, but you're still as handsome as ever!"
Lin Fan smiled and said, "Are you working here?"
Ma Xiaoli replied, "Yes, I've been taking the civil service exam for two years and finally got in. Now I'm just doing odd jobs."
Lin Fan said, "That's really impressive. I remember you used to say that you wanted to work in Hang City and become an official. Congratulations on taking the first step towards your goal."
The aspiration to live in a big city, become wealthy, or secure a stable job are common dreams for many people from "small places." Lin Fan himself was from such a place and was once the same, but harsh realities of life shattered those illusions, and he settled down to being a regular worker.
Ma Xiaoli said, "Oh, don't praise me. I'm not an official; I'm just a small clerk. I got this position by luck; the person ahead of me withdrew, and that's why I got it."
Even though she was just a clerk, Ma Xiaoli felt lucky to have joined the city government, feeling quite proud.
Back in high school, Ma Xiaoli shared a desk with Lin Fan for some time, and they got along quite well. Ma Xiaoli would talk to Lin Fan about her dreams.
It seemed that Ma Xiaoli's dream had come true, and Lin Fan was genuinely happy for her.
"Don't talk so much about me. Lin Fan, what about you? What kind of work are you doing now? And how did you end up at the city government?" Ma Xiaoli asked curiously.
Lin Fan was about to speak.
"Little Li, what are you doing, have you finished the documents I asked you to organize?" At that moment, a pot-bellied middle-aged man walked over, looking impatient.
Ma Xiaoli stuck out her tongue, gave Lin Fan a look, indicating they'd talk later, and then quickly went over.
"Chief, I've organized the documents as you instructed. Please have a look," Ma Xiaoli handed the document to him.
The pot-bellied middle-aged man took the document, glanced at it, and his face immediately turned sour, "How are you working? I can see the mistake right away!"
Ma Xiaoli jumped in shock and asked, "Chief, where's the mistake?"
The pot-bellied middle-aged man said, "Look at this data, take a good look yourself. I think you need a new pair of glasses if not, you're blind. How could you mess up such simple data!? Can't you use your brain a bit!"
As he scolded, the middle-aged man poked Ma Xiaoli's forehead with his finger.
Seeing this, Lin Fan frowned; this chief had quite a temper!
Ma Xiaoli glanced at the data and said a bit aggrievedly, "You provided this data to me; I didn't even miss a decimal point. If you don't believe me, I can show you the chat records."
While saying this, Ma Xiaoli was about to take out her phone.
The pot-bellied middle-aged man roared, "What are you looking at? If I say you're wrong, you're wrong. Why are you so brainless? Looking for trouble, are you?"
The middle-aged man raised a hand, as if about to hit Ma Xiaoli. This girl was really annoying. If she were to prove that it was his mistake in giving the figures, where would he put his face?
The bureaucratic world is complex, not something just anyone can handle. How could a leader be wrong? Even a leader's mistakes are a subordinate's fault. It seemed that Ma Xiaoli, new to the field, really didn't understand this.
In the eyes of this middle-aged man, Ma Xiaoli was just not smart enough and needed to learn how to behave.
"Hey, if you're going to talk, just talk, no need to get physical."
Suddenly, a voice came from the side.
Lin Fan!
The pot-bellied middle-aged man turned to look at Lin Fan, seemingly noticing him for the first time. He was momentarily stunned, then became furious, "Who the hell are you?"
