The next day.
Sunday.
The Korean car brand that Lee Anson was endorsing had once again upgraded their promotions. They were promoting a high-end bulletproof car under their brand. They wanted to use this high-end car model to enter the China market. Lee Anson had been advertising the entire day yesterday to promote this car model. Now, they were even going so far as to announce a 'Smash a car, get a free car' event. Anyone who could shatter the glass of their new bulletproof car would be given a brand new bulletproof car for free.
Publicity.
Build momentum.
Like a raging fire.
…
The netizens watched:
"Such a big gamble?"
"Are they really giving me a free car?"
"Bulletproof car? Lee Anson's vehicle? "
"Is Teacher Zhang really not going to make a move?"
"Sigh, I won't be able to see the fun this time."
"Yeah, that fellow Face-smacking Zhang's mind is no longer here!"
"People who are going to be fathers are different."
"I hereby announce that Face-smacking Zhang has officially retired from the face-smacking stage!"
"Pfft, it's all because of you bunch of people egging him on. Yesterday, Zhang Ye was at home taking care of his wife, but because he didn't manage to slap his face, you guys called the cops on him. I can laugh at this joke for a year!"
"Hahahaha."
"It's mainly because this guy's bad temper is too deeply ingrained in people's hearts!"
…
The other side.
Lee Anson's team.
"Anson-oppa, the advertising was very effective."
"Yeah, most of the people in China don't have much of a reaction."
"Looks like the storm from last year has passed."
"Now, we can calm down and start developing in China again."
"That's right. That Zhang fellow hasn't made a move either!"
The team was very excited.
Ever since they had withdrawn from the China market, their days had not been good. Their popularity had gone through a huge rise and fall, but they had managed to pull through in the end. Just Zhang Ye alone had nearly ruined Lee Anson's career as a celebrity. If this carried on, Lee Anson wouldn't even be able to maintain his current Asian A-list status, so they had to gain a firm foothold in China no matter what.
The first shot was fired and the momentum was good. Lee Anson also revealed a smile.
What's wrong with Zhang Ye again?
So what if he had a bad record in China?
Wasn't he back now?
…
In Japan and Korea.
Many of the celebrities who focused on the China market were also constantly paying attention to Lee Anson's situation.
Seeing that the market is calm?
See that everything is normal in the market?
Quite a few of the Japanese and Korean celebrities who had been intimidated by Zhang Ye earlier were also getting restless!
…
Noon.
In a bustling area.
In a private room upstairs of the restaurant, Zhang Ye was the host and invited everyone in the studio to a banquet. Rao Aimin, the half-baked manager, had also brought Little Chenchen along for a free meal.
Little Wang giggled. "Director Zhang, congratulations!"
Tong Fu asked, "Where's sister-in-law?"
Zhang Ye laughed heartily. "She went back to her parents' place today to have dinner with relatives."
Chenchen looked up. "Zhang Ye, when is your baby due?"
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "In another nine months."
Chenchen: "Oh."
"What's up?"
Chenchen: "When the baby is born, I'll take him out to play."
"You're going to look after the child for me? Sure. "
Rao Aimin said indifferently, "Look at you, brat. Hurry up and order the dishes, I'm hungry."
"Let's order, let's order. It's my treat today, so don't stand on ceremony with me," Zhang Ye said loudly.
Abalone!
Lobster!
Shark fins!
Rao Aimin really did not stand on ceremony.
Zhang Ye was sweating profusely when he heard that. He nudged her and whispered, "That's enough, that's enough. I can't eat anymore, I can't eat anymore."
Everyone laughed.
Rao Aimin's expression remained the same. "Chenchen and I haven't eaten meat in several days. We were just waiting for this meal of yours." She closed the menu and said to the waiter, "Alright, we'll serve it like that."
Chenchen clapped. "Aunt, well done!"
Zhang Ye rolled his eyes.
The other studio staff did not dare to jeer.
Be it at the studio or anywhere else, the only person who dared to speak to Zhang Ye like that was Rao Aimin. No one else had the guts to do so. Even if there were some who joked with Zhang Ye, they couldn't beat Director Zhang in an argument. It was always them who got trampled on by Zhang Ye. Only Rao Aimin was different. She was always the one trampling on Zhang Ye, while Zhang Ye usually did not talk back. Those who understood Zhang Ye's temper all felt that this was impossible. But those who really knew him would know that during the most difficult times when Director Zhang had just debuted, it was all thanks to Rao Aimin's financial support. Otherwise, Director Zhang would have starved to death a long time ago and wouldn't have gotten to where he was today. Of course, those who knew the inside story would know that all of that was nonsense. The real reason why Zhang Ye did not pick a fight with Rao Aimin was because of — fight! No! Pass! Ah!
The dishes were served one by one.
It was so sumptuous that Zhang Ye felt his heart ache just by looking at it.
Zhang Ye said, "This meal will be everyone's bonus for this month. Eat more, everyone."
When everyone heard that, they all cheered.
"Yi!"
"Yi!"
"Director Zhang is too stingy!"
"Hahaha!"
Zhang Ye said dejectedly, "I was just joking. I'll still give you the bonus. Come, let's eat!"
As they were eating, the sound of a microphone came from afar. It was quite loud.
"The event has officially begun!"
"Smash the car, send the car!"
"Everyone can participate. Who's next?"
"Alright, this kid."
Bang!
Bang!
There was even the sound of something being smashed!
Zhang Zuo looked out the window. "What's going on?"
Ha Qiqi said, "It's over at the plaza, right?"
"I know." Wu Yi said, "It's that Korean car brand's event. They're holding it over there and have been promoting it for the entire day. They're talking about some bulletproof car or something."
Little Wang curled her lips. "That Lee Anson commercial?"
Tong Fu clearly knew about cars. "That brand has always had a bad reputation. It's a big car manufacturer in Korea who tried to break into the China market many years ago. At that time, it wasn't known by its current name. At that time, a batch of cars had some problems with their gearboxes, so they were recalled unconditionally in Korea, Japan, and the United States. However, there was no recall in China, so China's car buyers could only request for repairs themselves. They were treated differently, which caused a lot of people to scold them. In the end, they withdrew from the China market due to poor sales. In recent years, the manufacturer has changed their brand and returned again. They're trying to clear their name, so it's no wonder they invited Lee Anson to be their spokesperson.
Bang!
Bang!
The sound of cars being smashed was incessant!
"Hahaha."
"Does anyone else want to give it a try?"
"We'll provide props. As long as you smash the glass, we'll give you a free car!"
Zhang Ye said impatiently, "Close the windows, it's too noisy."
Little Wang immediately went to close the windows.
Ha Qiqi said, "Come, let's eat our food."
Zhang Zuo said, "Right, don't let those people spoil our fun."
Wu Yi raised his glass. "Director Zhang, let me toast you again."
As they ate, they chatted. It was all about adults and work.
Chenchen didn't like it either. She stood up and said, "Aunt, I want to go shopping."
Rao Aimin said, "I haven't finished eating yet."
Chenchen looked at Zhang Ye. "Zhang Ye, bring me there."
Zhang Ye waved it off. "Aiya, we're just chatting."
Chenchen got angry.
Little Wang smiled and said, "Little Leader, let Big Sis bring you there. I'm just full."
Little Zhou also stood up. "I'll go too."
Chenchen nodded.
Rao Aimin instructed, "Don't let her run around."
Zhang Ye also said, "She'll be back in a while. Let her buy whatever she wants. You guys can use your credit cards and get her aunt to reimburse you."
Little Wang and Little Zhou were amused. "Understood."
The three of them went out to shop.
The remaining group of people continued eating, drinking, and chatting.
Ten minutes.
Half an hour.
As they were chatting happily, the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open.
They saw Little Zhou rushing back. The moment she entered the room, she shouted, "Something's happened! Something's happened! Chenchen smashed someone's car! They won't let her leave! "
When everyone at the table heard that, they all stood up!
"What?"
"She smashed someone's car?"
"Where is she?"
"Is she alright?"
"Let's go! Let's go and have a look! "
"Why did something happen so soon after we went out!"
All of a sudden, the group of people all rushed over!
