Era: Beginning from the Modu Translation Studio

Chapter 399 Self-defeating
L'Oréal's headquarters in New York, facing the big screen in the middle.

6 or 7 senior executives, with their hands behind their backs or with their arms folded, commented on the hollowed-out advertising renderings on the screen with great satisfaction.

In their eyes, L'Oréal will definitely have a seat at the next advertising festival.

Likewise, in Ogilvy's office.

With his hands crossed on his knees, Ogilvy looked expressionlessly at the pictures that kept switching on the TV.

"According to our investigation, in addition to the double-sided bicycle advertisements in New York,

Ogilvy's female secretary, holding a folder of documents, stood by and reported:

"The White Rabbit Milk Candy, White Cat Washing Powder, China Pencils, and the recently released Uni-President Matches series of commercials that were broadcast in Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, and other regions recently all showed the shadow of Chunfengdu..."

Watching the advertising cases that our company had discussed and studied on TV.

Ogilvy raised his hands from his knees and began to pull his chin.

"Not only that, according to colleagues at Ogilvy Hong Kong, in order to win the McDonald's pitch, the two CEOs of the Hong Kong-based company, Huang & Lin, even went to mainland China to seek help."

"What do you mean?"

Ogilvy couldn't sit still: "You mean to say that McDonald's outdoor advertising is also the work of Chunfengdu?"

"The possibility is very high."

"Ha~"

Ogilvy smiled bitterly: "After all this time, the two case shows I carefully selected at the advertising festival turned out to be Chunfengdu's works..."

After shaking his head with a wry smile, he suddenly looked stunned and pointed at the TV: "I actually invited an advertising team of this level to compete with my own company?"

"What did you think at first?"

"I... God knows what I was thinking at the time."

I thought the other party was cheating, but I ended up making things worse.

If he had known that his opponent was so strong, Ogilvy would never have given him the chance to become his opponent:
“The Chinese are cunning,” he concluded. “Remember, never play tricks on the Chinese in the future.”

The female secretary nodded seriously: "What are we going to play?"

"Play..." Ogilvy thought seriously for a while, and then said: "Play with your head!"

In 1980, the price of a Mercedes-Benz 450 in the U.S. market was $16000.

In other words, Jiangshan won three Mercedes-Benz 450s in three days.

……

Just as Jiangshan said before, the international flight route from New York to Tokyo to Pujiang to Yanjing was almost like it was specially opened for the group of seven.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, when Jiang Shan returned to the No. 51 courtyard with a lot of bags, everyone in front and behind him shouted: "Mom, Mom... I'm back!"

Jiang's mother, who was about to go out in the backyard, was immediately overjoyed.

Since childhood, only the third son would bother her with everything, but Jiang's mother liked this youngest son: "Little Third Son, Mom is here..."

Next door, the old couple from Li Ruocheng's family, one opened the window and the other opened the door.

"The third one is back."

"You are finally back."

Although they had only been separated for about 20 days, the three old people felt as if they had not seen each other for years.

They chatted with Jiang Shan for a long time, and even after the third child fell asleep on the bed, Jiang's mother stayed by the bed and was reluctant to leave:

"Look at how thin the child is," Jiang's mother looked at him carefully, "Doesn't the United States not have a planned economy? Is it so difficult for him to eat something good?"

"Where is he thin? He is thin, but he is thin just to show you."

Li Huaiying waited at the door and waved to Jiang Ma: "Come out quickly and let the child have a good sleep."

……

In the afternoon, Jiangshan, who had a good sleep, sat in the house and worked diligently on making balloons.

crunch, crunch...

Li Ruocheng, who was sitting next to him, was also helping to inflate the balloon.

Watching the colorful balloons turn into apples, eggplants, puppies, giraffes in Jiangshan's hands...

Jiang Ma and Li Huaiying were staring with wide eyes.

"Third brother, can you do magic?" Jiang's mother grabbed a puppy and asked, "Is this considered magic?"

"I don't know," Li Huaiying kept staring at the third brother's hand, "but it looks very complicated."

"I just learned this craft in New York,"

Jiangshan recalled the days when he worked part-time in a children's interest class in his previous life:

"They like to decorate the venue during festivals. A set with a pump and balloons is $5, which is quite a good deal."

"It looks pretty good," Jiang's mother looked at the piles of balloons on the table, "But third brother, aren't you putting too much?"

"not much,"

After twisting the balloons into about 20 animal shapes, Jiang Shan took the air pump from Uncle Li and said, "It's still early."

“Isn’t that enough?”

Mother Jiang continued to tie the string to the balloon: "Okay, let's do it quickly."

"Yes, Mom,"

Jiang Shan suddenly suggested: "Why don't we use the new rice cooker to cook tonight?"

"You're using it now?" Looking at Jiang's mother's expression, she was a little reluctant: "I wanted to wait until the New Year to take it out."

"Can we not wait until the New Year to do everything? Things are bought to be used," Jiang Shan advised in a different way:
"Mom, let me tell you, if it weren't for the help from the embassy colleagues, I wouldn't have been able to bring back these electrical appliances so easily.

Ren Sisi can say that for these small appliances, the ones sold in Japan are not as cheap as those sold in the United States. "

“Just these few pots have alarmed the government?”

"hold head high!"

"Yes," Jiang Ma decided immediately, "We'll use it tonight. Aunt Li, you can also use the rice cooker to cook tonight."

"Okay," Li Huaiying nodded, "We can use it together, so we can have someone to look after us when we don't have any help."

"You don't have to worry about anything,"

Jiang Shan: "Just put the rice in, measure the water, press the switch, and then you can do other things."

Before leaving, Jiangshan thought about it over and over again.

Finally, I decided to bring back two rice cookers for Jiang Ma and Li Aunt.

Jiang Shan felt like he had asked the same question last year: "How are our two college entrance exam candidates doing recently?"

"Ah," Jiang's mother raised her head suddenly, "I would have forgotten about it if you hadn't mentioned it."

"what happened?"

"Tomorrow is the day when Xiaochuan will attend the interview at the drama academy," Jiang's mother said, "I wonder how she is preparing?"

"The date is tomorrow?"

Jiang Shan was stunned for a few seconds: "I haven't had time to find someone for her yet."

"Don't worry about this,"

Jiang Ma waved her hand and said, "Director Hu from the dubbing studio and Director Gu from the TV station have both hired people to help Chuan Chuan rehearse."

"How did they know this?"

"Who else could it be?" Jiang's mother thought kindly, "It must be your second sister-in-law who arranged it!"

"Don't worry, Third Brother," Li Ruocheng could see through it: "Although your second sister-in-law doesn't talk much, she is definitely more capable than you guys."

"That's fine," Jiang Shan said, "I'll go with Xiaochuan tomorrow."

"Are you going too?"

"Is there anyone else coming over?"

"It is said that Pan Hong will go with us tomorrow."

"She really came?" "More than that." If there weren't so many people, Li Ruocheng would have wanted to go over and take a look: "Hu Xiao said that he and his friend from the TV station would go together."

"No way," Jiang Shan stopped what he was doing.

"When did Daoba become so grand? He was just going to an audition for a play, why did he alarm the two top leaders?"

……

3:30 pm, in front of Anhe Street Primary School.

From a distance, Jiangshan saw his little niece among a group of elementary school students.

In May, I sweat as soon as I move.

Jiang Xiaoyu, carrying a small schoolbag, was wearing a white shirt with a small round collar and a sky blue overalls skirt with two white stripes.

I don’t know what she played at school, but the little girl’s bangs were stuck to her forehead due to sweat.

The rosy little face with the red scarf flying on the side makes her look like a pillar of the motherland.

"Jiang Xiaoyu,"

Outside the gate of Anhe Street Primary School, Jiang Shan, holding a bunch of balloons, waved to his children: "Here, Xiaoyu!"

"Third uncle?"

Jiang Xiaoyu, who was talking to his classmates, suddenly heard a familiar voice.

When he looked up, he immediately jumped up happily: "It's my third uncle, my third uncle is here."

Several good classmates of Jiang Xiaoyu had already dealt with this third uncle.

When they saw each other, they rushed over together.

"Come on, come on,"

Jiang Shan handed out small gifts one by one: "Everyone has one. This is specially prepared for you by uncle."

"Wow~"

“I’m a little rabbit.”

“This balloon is really fun.”

"Thank you, uncle."

"Thank you, Uncle San."

Several happy children shouted along with Jiang Xiaoyu.

Under the envious gaze of other children at the school gate, her little mouth chattered even sweeter.

……

"Uncle San, are you back from the United States?"

"came back,"

Jiang Shan, carrying a small schoolbag, walked on the road holding his jumping niece's hand: "I'll pick you up as soon as I get home."

"That's great," Jiang Xiaoyu is closest to his uncle: "Is America fun, Uncle?"

"Just like that," Jiang Shan: "It's a bit noisy, what about you guys, have you done anything fun recently?"

"Uncle San, I lost a tooth."

"Uncle San, Grandpa said Xiaobai has gained weight again."

"Uncle San, Aunt Er has started teaching me English."

"Uncle Three..."

When we were almost reaching Courtyard No. 51, a cream-colored van appeared on the roadside.

"Jiang Xiaoyu,"

Jiang Shan walked over and grabbed the back door handle of the van: "Happy Children's Day!"

After saying that, he lifted up the rear hood.

Then, a van full of colorful balloons appeared in front of Jiang Xiaoyu, swaying.

"Wow~"

It was the first time in her life that the little girl saw such a dreamlike scene: "Oh my God!"

The mischievous uncle not only prepared a car full of colorful balloons for his little niece, but also placed a pink Barbie house with lights on in the middle of the balloons.

Not to mention, these fancy ideas from the previous life will work well in any life.

At this moment, a rainbow has already appeared in Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes.

The next second, the usually quiet little girl pounced on him...
