The reporters and cameraman followed Li Shiyou to the Motor Factory's workshop. But the production equipment and products in front of them were different from what they had imagined.
Shouldn't they be producing generators? Even if the technology was confidential, it should be part of the generator's components. Why did the products in this workshop look so familiar? Damn, wasn't this the humidifier they had seen earlier?
"Director Li, is there something wrong with this workshop?" The reporters asked.
"Nothing. This workshop is producing our factory's most profitable product. Oh, there are a few other workshops that are also producing this. Do you want to go to the other workshops?" Li Shiyou asked despite knowing the answer. Feng Yu said that he wanted to showcase this workshop on TV. The technologies of the motor workshop could be leaked easily. This was not a problem. He could also use this opportunity to promote the humidifier. Most importantly, Feng Yu said that this could be included in the advertising fees. He was willing to pay the Motor Factory a large sum of advertising fees for this.
The reporters were speechless. Never mind. You are the director. You can showcase whatever you want.
Standing in the workshop, Li Shiyou answered a few more questions from the reporters. But for some reason, Director Li's answers were getting more and more different from the answers they had prepared. Why did Director Li keep asking about the Wind and rain humidifier?
"This is the second generation humidifier developed by us and the Aviation Factory. It has the most advanced technologies, and we had applied for the national and overseas patents. At this moment, the water mist will appear, which is more efficient and saves the time needed to heat it up. Furthermore, it saves electricity, energy, and water, eliminating the trouble of adding water repeatedly. Moreover, the spray is cold mist, which won't burn you, so it's safer … "
The reporters immediately signaled the cameraman to switch off the camera. This was not an interview. This was more like an advertisement.
"Director Li, we need to follow the prepared script. Why are you always promoting your factory's products?" The reporters had a helpless look on their faces. Their videotapes were also limited.
"Sorry, I always have these things in my mind. I just blurted it out. Ok, I will follow the script. Let's go to the warehouse? "Li Shiyou glanced at Feng Yu and saw Feng Yu secretly giving him a thumbs up.
When they entered the warehouse, not only the reporters and cameraman were stunned. Even Li Shiyou was stunned.
Was this the Motor Factory's warehouse? They had taken a look at the warehouse, and it was not arranged like this. This was … … a picture made of boxes?
Feng Yu signaled Li Shiyou to stand in front of the boxes for the interview. He asked the cameraman to take a long view of the warehouse. He told Li Shiyou that the warehouse was full of products.
The cameraman cursed in his heart. How is this warehouse full? There is a lot of space. Besides, where else would you find storage units that are placed like that? Even an outsider like me would understand that it's a waste of space, and it's not tidy and safe enough.
This time, Li Shiyou's answers were correct, but the reporters and cameraman were still in a dilemma. How the f * ck was he going to explain to the higher-ups when he got back? Which part should they use for tomorrow's news?
In the first part, there was a shot of the humidifier being switched on and off, and there was a wall of humidifier boxes. The second part was the humidifier production scene, and Li Shiyou had said something similar to an advertisement. There was no problem with the third part. But what was the background? Did the people from the Motor Factory like to play with building blocks?
Forget it. Let the leaders worry about this. Seems like Director Li will not cooperate with them to film again. Furthermore, they did not have enough videotapes. There was no time to film again tomorrow. Hopefully, the leaders did not notice this and will not criticize them.
Before they left, Feng Yu gave them a souvenir. It was the Motor Factory's new humidifier. It was not even in the market yet. Even the provincial and city leaders did not have it!
They gave them red packets when they came and gave them souvenirs when they left. The Motor Factory was doing much better than the other leaders they interviewed. So what if they were criticized? They endured it.
When they opened the red envelope, they were even more shocked. Everyone had 500 RMB. They thought there were only a few tens of RMB in the red packets. They did not expect there to be 100 RMB banknotes in the red packets!
500 RMB was equivalent to their salary for a few months. This time, their resentment towards Director Li was even smaller. Even if it was a criticism from the leaders, or even a deduction of their salary, they could accept it. At most, it was just a deduction of half a month.
After the people from the TV station left, Feng Yu made a few phone calls to invite the advertising producers over to make a TV commercial. It must be similar to this interview. There was no need to change the scene!
Li Shiyou worked hard again and became the male lead of the commercial. Of course, the scene in the workshop was changed to the chief engineer of the factory. It was more convincing.
Feng Yu was most satisfied with the arrangement of the goods in the last warehouse. It reminded him of the supermarket aunties from his previous life. It was so photogenic!
The next day, the Provincial TV station's evening news broadcast Li Shiyou's interview. The footage was heavily edited. But what surprised Feng Yu was that the humidifier was switched on in the first shot. It was said that it was more realistic. The third shot was also kept. It was said that it was to show the full view of the warehouse. There were busy workers.
Feng Yu watched the interview in front of the TV and laughed. These two red packets were worth it!
Later on, the entire interview was released. This time, the effect was better. There were almost no edits. Even Feng Yu could not help but pay attention to the humidifier. Not to mention the rest of the audience. It can be said that Li Shiyou's elegance was completely overshadowed by the humidifier. Feng Yu could only apologize for this.
The next day, the same commercial similar to the interview was aired on the Provincial TV station. It was aired 3 times a day. There were exactly 3 1 minute scenes. This time, Feng Yu signed a 1 year advertising contract with the Provincial TV station. It was still under Tai Hua Trading's name. The contract was flexible and could be changed at any time. For example, the humidifier advertisement could be included in the humidifier's sales cost.
Bing City's citizens once again discovered a hot topic. It was the Motor Factory's warehouse's arrangement of goods. The TV was showing it on the Motor Factory's warehouse. The Motor Factory's tallymen were too talented. They actually used different colors of the boxes to display the words Wind and Rain!
Feng Yu heard the discussions in the streets and alleys and laughed. He thought in his heart, this was nothing. The supermarket aunties in his previous life were much more talented. They could even use boxes to display Optimus Prime.
Anyway, the Wind and Rain brand of humidifier was not even in the market yet, but it was already popular in Bing City. Everyone was talking about the humidifier advertisement. Feng Yu believed that once the patent was approved and they launched it into the market, there would be another round of sales!
