Chapter 107 - The Commotion Caused by the Advertisement! (1/2)

9 P.M.

They finished eating the noodles.

Zhang Yuanqi didn’t bother cleaning up the dishes. She leaned on the bed with a cup of wine in hand, “Little Zhang, TV.”

Zhang Ye snorted. He unwillingly grabbed the remote control beside him to switch on the television for her, “Which channel?”

Zhang Yuanqi answered plainly, “BTV – Arts Channel.”

Zhang Ye exclaimed, “You watch this channel? I work there now.”

Suddenly, the telephone on the table began to vibrate. Zhang Ye was wondering who it was so late at night. He picked it up.

“Teacher Zhang.” It was a man’s voice. “I’m the Little w.a.n.g from the television station’s advertising department. We met about two hours ago. I called you to inform you that the public service advertis.e.m.e.nt that you came up with and supervised will broadcast soon. In at most five minutes, once this segment ends. It was also approved by the higher-ups, after they deemed the effects to be very good. And since the part about switching off the light isn’t very suitable for an afternoon broadcast, they decided to push it forward to tonight.”

“Alright, I got it.”

“We pa.s.sed the verification. Thank you.”

“You worked hard, too. You’re welcome.”

After putting down the cellphone, Zhang Ye quickly increased the television’s volume, “Teacher Zhang, once this music shows ends, I’ll have something to show you.”

Zhang Yuanqi did not ask either. She just kept drinking.

A few seconds later, the program ended. First a cosmetics advertis.e.m.e.nt was broadcast. And the next moment, an animated advertis.e.m.e.nt was aired. It was the scene of a husband and wife quarrelling!

Zhang Ye quickly said, “Look, look!”

Zhang Yuanqi couldn’t tell, “Why an advertis.e.m.e.nt?”

“You’ll know once you watch it. Haha.” Zhang Ye was full of antic.i.p.ation.

Following that, the husband left after being scolded by the wife. Just as the wife was crying in regret, the husband came back. Bada! He switched off the light and left.

The screen went black.

The subt.i.tles appeared – Conserve electricity. Lights off with people gone!

Zhang Ye had interacted and supervised it with the advertis.e.m.e.nt department. It was basically following the original Russian version from his world. There were nearly no changes.

Seeing that, Zhang Yuanqi was stunned. She had probably never expected such an amazing ending, “This is a public service advertis.e.m.e.nt? It can be done this way? The country still has such a good and creative public service advertis.e.m.e.nt?”

“This must be the first time you are seeing it, right? Come over here.” Zhang Ye was very pleased. He switched on his computer and found the television station’s website. After clicking it, he called Zhang Yuanqi over to see the production credits.

Supervisor: Zhang Ye.

Planning: Zhang Ye.

Idea Provider: Zhang Ye.

About half of the seven to eight names on the credits list were Zhang Ye’s name.

“This is your production?” Zhang Yuanqi looked at him.

“That’s right. I suggested it and it was also supervised by me.” Zhang Ye said, “How was it? Not bad, right?”

“Yes, not bad.” Saying that, Zhang Yuanqi returned to leaning on the bed, ignoring him.

Zhang Ye also did not care about her. He opened the television station’s official discussion board.

“The electricity conservation public service advertis.e.m.e.nt was awesome!”

“Hahaha. I also just saw it. I’m dying of laughter!”

“Divine idea! Divine creativity! Divine twist! Divine ending!”

“Whose idea was it? I never expected public service advertis.e.m.e.nts could be made this way!”

“Heavens, Zhang Ye? The idea provider, the supervisor and several other roles in the credits list are all Zhang Ye? It can’t be the Zhang Ye I know, can it?”

“Who is Zhang Ye?”
