Chapter 384 - The Brain Gold Advertisement that Gets Cursed Badly! (1/2)
The next day.
9 in the morning.
Zhang Ye's ringtone sounded out, waking him up from under the blankets. He had slept late last night and hadn’t gotten enough sleep.
When the first call came in, Zhang Ye turned around, ignoring it.
Only when the second second call came did Zhang Ye stretch out his hand to pick it up impatiently.
”h.e.l.lo, who is this?”
”Teacher Zhang, its me.”
”Who?”
”I'm Wu Mo.”
”Oh, CEO Wu, h.e.l.lo.”
”Are you still resting at home? Sorry for disturbing you.”
”It's fine. Tell me if there's anything.”
”The advertis.e.m.e.nt on Beijing Television Station will play today. The first wave will begin at 11. Then it will also appear in the afternoon and at night. Our company scrimped up some more cash, planning to bet it all on this. We even paid for the advertis.e.m.e.nt to be shown on other provincial television stations. They will all go up today. As for the internet promotions, it began the day before yesterday. Other than a lack of funds preventing us from reaching intensive penetration, everything else is according to your marketing idea.”
”Alright.”
”However, that 'scientific editorial' that goes out twice a day did not seem to have any obvious effects. Our Brain Gold sales did not have any significant increases.”
”Don't worry. Wait for the broadcast of the advertis.e.m.e.nt.”
”Teacher Zhang, are you sure there won't be any problems? All my wealth is on the line. If this really fails, I will really have to go home and be a garbage collector.”
”Don't worry. It won't happen.”
”Then...Alright. Rest well.”
After throwing his phone to the side, Zhang Ye yawned and slapped his face. Only then did he become a bit more awake. He also did not plan on sleeping any longer since this was not his house. He definitely had to be a bit more restricted in President Wu's house. Hence, he pulled the blanket away and got out of bed, and went to bathroom to wash up. As there was no hot water, the moment his face was drenched with cold water, he was immediately much more awake. Zhang Ye was not unaccustomed to this. As the saying went, it was best to use cold water to wash one's face in a winter morning.
Downstairs.
Wu Zeqing was already up.
”Sis Wu, you are already awake?” Zhang Ye went to the first floor of the villa.
She was sitting on the sofa watching television. She looked over upon hearing him speak. ”Hur Hur, I just woke up too. My nephew gave me a call, mentioning the advertis.e.m.e.nt.”
Zhang Ye smiled and said, ”He gave me a call too, saying that it would air at 11.”
Wu Zeqing asked, ”Are you hungry?”
Zhang Ye said, ”I'm fine, I'll eat at home, so there's no need to trouble you.”
She said, ”Aren't your parents at work today? There will be nothing for you to eat at home either, so make do with what I have here. Well, let's eat early and treat it as lunch.”
Zhang Ye did not refuse, ”Then I'll not stand on ceremony. Your cooking skills are right up my alley. Just thinking about your cooking makes me salivate. I'll eat another meal of yours.”
Wu Zeqing smiled and said, ”That's all that matters if you like it. If you aren't satisfied with anything, you can give me suggestions so that I can improve. You sometimes don't mean what you say.”
Zhang Ye said exasperatedly, ”No, it's really delicious. I'm not trying to curry favor with you.”
Wu Zeqing chuckled. ”Alright. Take a seat. I'll prepare lunch. If you want some tea, pour it yourself. If you want to watch TV, go ahead and change the channel. Make yourself at home.”
Zhang Ye wanted to help out, but was rejected by Wu Zeqing. She was adamant about not letting him do anything. Zhang Ye could only sit on the sofa watching TV. From time to time, he would glance at the beautiful figure busying herself in the open kitchen. Wu Zeqing was wearing a white sweater. It had a wide and plump style and was not furry. It had a lot of leeway. Her pants were an ordinary whitish-gray pair of slacks. She was very suitable for such pale, light colored clothes, as it made her have an endearing temperament. She looked very gentle with her flowing hair. Hey, let's stop talking about it!
Was.h.i.+ng the vegetables.
Cutting the vegetables.
This scene was like a piece of art.
Be it her work or cooking, Wu Zeqing did thinks very calmly. She was the kind that did things neither too fast nor too slow. She was never fl.u.s.tered and did things prim and proper.
She was done cooking.
The two of them began eating.
”Oh! Delicious!”
”The fire was a bit too big for the potatoes. It wasn't done well.”
”Not at all, this level of heat is perfect. It wouldn't be nice if it’s too crumbly.”
The television was always on Beijing Television Station. Suddenly, a familiar jingle was heard.
Zhang Ye's ears perked up when he heard it. He cleared his throat and put down his chopsticks, immediately looking at the TV screen. ”Sis Wu, it has begun. This is the commercial.”
Wu Zeqing also turned her head to look at it.
The commercial was aired right after a Beijing Television Station entertainment program which had pretty good ratings. The time slot was also not bad. Immediately, there were two characters Zhang Ye was familiar with on the screen. One was an old man, and another an old woman. This was designed by a professional according to Zhang Ye's requirements. It was nearly produced in the exact same fas.h.i.+on as his world's ”Brain Platinum” television commercial.
