"..." Yan Fei was a bit speechless. "Why submit so many applications? There are only ten spots, and seventeen places are competing. Our region doesn't have a clear advantage. Submitting too much might actually not be too good, right?"
"What do you mean we don't have much of an advantage? Our region has a large population, and our GDP is always among the top in the province…" Director Niu quickly cited several 'advantages,' non-stop, as if securing three spots out of the top ten would be a piece of cake.
"We're too far away!" Yan Fei interrupted him. "Our region is far from the Provincial City. No matter how well we develop, we definitely have a disadvantage compared to the places closer to the Provincial City. Their cherries and lotus roots, New City's jujubes, Middle City's watermelons... When the harvest comes, they can all sell directly to the Provincial City, and the people there can actually taste them. What about our local specialties' reputation in the Provincial City?"
