Chapter 14 Advertising

After breakfast, Jiang Danfeng called Du Qiu and made an appointment to meet at Guangming Cinema. Then, after rummaging in the closet full of famous brands for a few minutes, he chose a gorgeous red horn-button coat and paired with slim jeans, and transformed from a plain-faced home girl into a fashionable and dazzling urban beauty.

"Danfeng, your coat is not tightly buttoned, and it's air leaking everywhere, isn't it cold?"

"It's not cold, it's made of cashmere and it's very warm."

Jiang Danfeng chose a pearl pendant from the jewelry box and put it on, then opened another suitcase he brought back last night, took out two exquisite boxes with the same shape from it, stuffed them into his bag, and said, "I won't come back to sleep tonight, don't wait for me."

"Who cares about your return? If you are not at home, your dad and I don't know how safe you sleep." Jiang's mother angrily put the suitcase on her cover and stuffed it into the storage cabinet, and said gossip: "What are the two boxes you just brought with you?"

"The couple's watch, one is mine, and the other is given to Du Qiu as a New Year's gift."

"How much does this watch cost?"

"I specially customized it, more than 20,000 yuan."

"Last time he gave you a bracelet that was so expensive, did you give him a watch that was so cheap?"

"Mom, you are really angry now. You don't think it's more than 20,000 yuan?" Jiang Danfeng teased, bent down and put on high suede boots, and said, "Du Qiu is not short of money. It's not important whether the gift is expensive or not, whether you like it or not."

"That's true."

Du Qiu not only went to the train station to pick up people in the middle of the night last night, but also asked Bai Jie to drive the Porsche over in advance and parked next to the small flower bed downstairs. This is an employee community raised by the Commercial Vehicle Group. There are many car fans. When Jiang Danfeng appeared, there were seven or eight old men around the car, and their cheerful comments were even more excited than watching the dancing girls in some mobile art troupes in the 1990s.

"Danfeng, did Du Qiu personally send you back last night? Tsk tsk, I went to the train station to pick you up at around 1:00 in the middle of the night, so I was really considerate."

"Danfeng, this car was parked here yesterday afternoon. Did Du Qiu give it to you?"

"Jiang Danfeng, we are old classmates, would you please lend me a while?"

The famous British writer, poet and stingy tongue Oscar Wilde once said that a person can always treat people he doesn't care about.

Jiang Danfeng felt that this was a famous saying. In the past, she was particularly concerned about the rumors and rumors of neighbors, so she was reluctant to deal with them. Now she felt that she was not on the same level as these people, and her mentality became calmer. She greeted everyone with a gentle and enthusiastic smile for a few minutes. Then, in her envious and jealous eyes, she calmly opened the car door and sat in gracefully. The moment she held the steering wheel, a melancholy feeling suddenly appeared in her heart and sighed softly.

How great would it be if such a very informed and tactful man could be with him for the rest of his life...

Unfortunately, I tried my best and could only become the one he cared about, and I was still far from my beloved...

After the Porsche was started, the roaring engine and precise control made Jiang Danfeng quickly abandon his meaningless melancholy and began to enjoy the passion and fun brought by the luxury sports car. When the car drove out of the community and sped on the street, she suddenly remembered the scene of driving the old and broken Lada to the airport to pick up Du Qiu in the capital city 9 months ago. She not only sighed at the shabby at the time, but also felt relieved of the scheming at that time. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth and couldn't help but hum the song she was about to perform at the New Year's Day party.

"Let the light refract the tears wet pupils..."

"Reflects the rainbow I want to have the most..."

"Take me to the sky with you..."

"Because you are my dream..."

This song "My Dream" was a song that Du Qiu spent one night "creating" after Jiang Danfeng unlocked several fresh poses in Beijing last month, asking her to sing at the Snapdragon employee New Year's Day party. If she performed well, she would consider the release matter, otherwise she would be allowed to sing to others, so as not to ruin the song.

Jiang Danfeng liked this song very much and vowed to die rather than give it to others. So, compared to his usual laziness, he not only studied as a famous teacher in Beijing, but also did not relax when he went to Tokyo to purchase agents. He studied at Horikoshi University, known as the Japan Star Factory. She has good innate conditions, especially her musical feeling, and has made great progress. After more than a month of professional training, she felt that she had touched the threshold of a professional singer, so she was full of confidence and expectations for her performance at night.

Snapdragon recruited a large scale in the second half of the year, with the number of employees growing from more than 100 in August to more than 300 at the end of December. In order to allow new and old employees to integrate as soon as possible, Yang Fan specially held a team-building New Year's Day party. It started at 8 pm on December 31, 1995 and ended at 1 AM on January 1, 1996. It was located in Guangming Cinema in the city center. It had a product launch conference during the Internet conference, which can accommodate thousands of audiences at the same time, has special stage equipment, and has just been renovated and upgraded the audio system, which is very suitable for partying.

It was already past 10 o'clock when Jiang Danfeng arrived at Guangming Cinema. After entering, he was surprised. He seemed to have walked into the rehearsal scene of a large live party on the TV station. There were hundreds of people preparing. Not only were there performers memorizing lines and testing instruments, but also professionals such as makeup, sets, lighting and video. Everything was in order and each performed its own duties. The stage was also arranged magnificently, grand and exquisite, without any copycat or make-up.

At this time, a girl with a ponytail came in from outside with two costume costume costumes. Jiang Danfeng called her and asked, "Xiaomei, didn't you say you would just play around tonight? Why are you so tall and sophisticated?"

"Hey, Sister Danfeng, you're back." He Xiaomei was once a follower of Jiang Danfeng, and now she is on her own. She explained: "President Yang said that Xiaolong's company culture is either not to do it, and to do it as best as you want to do it. Even if you play, you have to play it seriously."

"It costs a lot of money, right?"

"It cost a lot of money." He Xiaomei handed the costumes on her hand to an employee and said: "In addition to finding a professional team to come for the set and video, Mr. Yang also specially invited some teachers from the Provincial Academy of Art to train employees. For example, Zhao Hongfei and others were very troubled. After practicing for more than a month, they were as tired as dead dogs every day, but their level has improved a lot. Look, they danced very well now."

Jiang Danfeng looked at the 12 employees on the stage with uniform steps and was secretly glad that he had not been cheating in the past month and asked, "Have you adjusted your arrangements tonight?"

"No, just like the one posted on the Internet the day before yesterday." He Xiaomei was afraid that she would not watch the program list, so she briefly introduced: "Go to Mingzhu Hotel for dinner at 5:30, come here at 8:00, and Mr. Yang will give an annual summary report. Then the party officially begins at 9:00. During the New Year's Eve at 12:00, Mr. Du and Sister Danfeng will go on stage to perform."

"It's good that there hasn't changed." Jiang Danfeng looked around and didn't see Du Qiu's figure. He asked, "Have Du Qiu been here yet?"

"Mr. Du is here." He Xiaomei pointed to the small door on the right side of the stage and said, "Maybe you're calling outside. I saw Dai Yi holding his cell phone to look for him."

"You're busy, I'll go and take a look."

Jiang Danfeng walked around a row of seats, walked along the shallow steps to the right side of the stage, and pushed open the small door. He saw Du Qiu standing next to a bunch of performance props at the end of the corridor, talking to someone with his cell phone, while Dai Yi was standing at the corner of the corridor, like a guardian.

"I don't care that Anders Helsberg's annual salary is higher than mine. The $2 million plus 10,000 shares of iView options are not outrageous. It is acceptable. You can handle it as soon as possible, and then form our own R&D team as per his requirements..."

"Bill Gates actually agreed to you? Brother Chen, you are really a clear stream among the star-chasing clan. You can even raise such strange conditions..."

"I know, I'll be dealing with it later. When will Microsoft send someone here?"

After listening for a while, Jiang Danfeng saw Du Qiu smiling, and seemed to have reached a very important business cooperation agreement. He asked Dai Yi softly: "The company has a new cooperation with Microsoft?"

Dai Yi is a secretary who knows how to do things but can’t be a human being. She shook her head and said, “Sister Danfeng, this is a company secret, I can’t tell you.”

"When I didn't ask." Jiang Danfeng looked at her with a smile and said, "Looking at how you are now, the official secretary should do it with ease. Are you very busy?"

"I'm quite busy, but I'm quite fulfilling..."

Before Dai Yi finished speaking, Du Qiu threw her cell phone and ordered: "Zhou Yuan's assistant said he was in a meeting and didn't bring his cell phone. You can call him later and ask him to cut out the images of Bill Gates when he came to China last year for a few seconds, put them in the advertisement, play it tomorrow, and change it back to the original the day after tomorrow."

"Bill Gates allows us to use his image?"

"Well, Mr. Chen bought his portrait rights for one dollar for a day, which can only be used on New Year's Day, and is only available in China." Du Qiu thought Chen Dayou really knew how to play, so he also had a bad idea and said, "Let Zhou Yuan put Bill Gates' image behind Steve Jobs."

"OK."

Du Qiu's plagiarized "think-different" advertising sample has been being modified recently, deleting some characters that cannot be played due to copyright or portrait rights issues, and adding some images of computer entrepreneurship pioneers, including Steve Jobs, who authorized Snapdragon to use the video materials of Apple in the 1970s with the help of Jennifer's mother Pam Esjon for $1 million.

At this time, the leader of the Qiao Gang was still running his next computer company in a bleak period, and was in a low period of career. He was neither the popular fan of the 1980s nor the business leader after 2000. The $1 million can be said to be a big talk in the lion. However, Du Qiu paid without hesitation. First, this advertising idea originally belonged to the leader of the Qiao Gang, and second, he asked the leader of the Qiao Gang to advertise for Snapdragon. He would be talked about for decades, and the effect would be far more than $1 million.

Now I have to stuff Bill Gates into the advertisement, even if it only takes one day, it will be enough to become a legend...
