Chapter 210: Dare to act
Except for Director Wang, everyone who accompanied me looked at me with trepidation, but the cigarette in my hand was about to burn to the cigarette butt, leaving me with less and less time to think. I still couldn't find any words and became more and more panicked, so that sweat began to seep out of my palms.
The smoke finally burned out unstoppably. An idea suddenly popped up in my mind, but suddenly became timid, because this idea was too exaggerated and too deviant.
In the moment of subtlety, I suddenly calmed down, pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray, then looked at a glass cup next to the ashtray, grabbed it with one hand, raised my hand and smashed the glass cup to the ground.
After the "bang" burst, the scene was silent. The accompanying planner and designer were frightened by my sudden actions, and Jian Wei had already stood up from the sofa and stared at me in a daze.
In the deadly silence, I smiled and said, "We have boldness that other advertising companies do not have."
Director Wang took out a tissue to wipe the sweat from his forehead, waved his hand and asked the security guard who came to hear the sound to leave, then said to me: "Explain it to me, explain, the so-called boldness, if I can't satisfy me, you have to double the compensation for this smashed teacup."
I calmed down my emotions again, and still smiled, saying: "Of the three projects under construction of Jinding Real Estate, two are apartment-type properties. The main consumer groups I face are those white-collar workers with great work pressure. They are busy with work and socializing, but their personal life is long-term suppressed. They need a crack-like venting, such as the pleasure I get when I break a cup... I believe that my behavior just now is enough to be bold and arbitrary. Only our bold and reckless advertising company, which is a newborn calf, is not afraid of tigers, can plan a publicity theme that best caters to the consumer needs of urban white-collar workers."
"If you were asked to plan, what kind of promotional theme would you give me?"
My thinking is like the flood discharge at this moment. Without a trace of consideration, I said, "Life is broken, the pleasure of explosion."
"Life breaking, exploding pleasure!"
Director Wang repeated the topic I proposed, then applauded and said, "The advertiser is either a lunatic or a genius. I hope you are a genius... In the recently bidding advertising companies, we always provide a bunch of emotionally unsexual data and company qualifications. I have long disliked this same-sized model. Today, I saw in you the boldness and the crazyness that an advertiser should be. The two youth apartment projects we are building require such breakthrough publicity.
Jian Wei looked happy and asked, "Director Wang, are you willing to cooperate with our company?"
"I personally have a great intention to cooperate with your Simei Advertising, but I still need to submit it to the top executives for them to study and decide. You can leave the company's information and the real estate planning cases you have done before, and wait for the notice."
Jian Wei nodded and handed over the information to Director Wang, and my palms were completely wet with sweat.
...
After communicating with Director Wang some planning ideas, we left Jinding Real Estate. On the way back, Jian Wei looked very excited. She said to me, "Zhaoyang, although your performance just now is bold, it is a manifestation of your personality, which is great!"
I smiled, without saying anything. I thought that I, who was about to be smoothed out by life, have rarely become so arrogant.
Jian Wei responded to my smile and asked, "Can you tell me what you were thinking when you threw the glass?"
"It's just a broken can. Don't he hate sticking to the rules? I'll give him some excitement!"
Jian Wei nodded: "If you can win the annual advertising agency of Jinding Real Estate this time, you will be the first-class merit."
"I haven't confirmed to work with us yet, so you should be calm and be careful that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment."
Jian Wei shook her head: "I know Director Wang very well. He will definitely fight for it from the superiors. With his position in Jinding Real Estate, it is not a big problem for us to obtain the agency."
I asked in confusion: "You know him very well? Haven't you just had a few meals?"
Jian Wei was stunned for a moment before replying: "My understanding of him is based on hearsay. In this industry, there will always be some gossip!"
I didn't think much and smiled: "If I could help the company win this business, it would be like a blind cat hitting a dead mouse."
Jian Wei's face was serious and rejected it, saying, "You are wrong. I think it was your bold advertising spirit that convinced Director Wang!"
...
This evening, I refused Jian Wei's request for dinner together, and returned to the old house early, and then called Mi Cai to ask her if she would come back to dinner tonight. Mi Cai gave me a positive answer, so I fell into the busyness of making dinner.
At seven o'clock in the evening, I finally made a sumptuous dinner and then started waiting for Mi Cai to return.
I just sat on the sofa, watching the second hand on the wall clock walk round after round, lay down again in tiredness, and then watched the minute hand walk around again.
I finally couldn't help but lit a cigarette for myself, but still couldn't extricate myself from the waiting for trouble.
After extinguishing the cigarette in my hand, I tore open another can of beer, then pinched the empty can, looked at the wall clock, and walked around the original track.
Time suddenly became extremely long for me, and Mi Cai seemed to be getting farther and farther away from me, but the scenes of her returning home on time became clearer and clearer. I couldn't help but wonder: Why did we always feel that she would go home on time every day before we fell in love, but after we were in love, we were delayed in all kinds of ways?
After thinking about it, I realized that before I fell in love, I was always worried that she would go back to the old house to drive me out, so all I could remember was the scene where she appeared on time.
After falling in love, I always longed to spend more time with her, so I care more about her procrastination at work.
In fact, she used to be very busy, and now she also has time to go home on time, but the point I care about has changed. Thinking about it like this, love will really set aside the two of them because they miss too much and spend too little time together!
The minute hand turned around again, and I finally fell asleep while waiting. In fact, I was also very tired today. If I accepted Jian Wei's invitation, I would be even more tired to have dinner with a group of people.
...
I don’t know how long I slept, but finally felt someone pushing me. I opened my eyes hazy and saw Mi Cai’s beautiful but tired face. She said to me with apologies: “I could have come back before 8 o’clock, but there was a safety accident in the mall and I organized a meeting temporarily, so I delayed it… Have you been waiting for a long time, right?”
I smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll go and warm up the food, hurry up and sit and rest for a while."
Mi Cai still nodded with apology, and I picked up the cold food and walked towards the kitchen. This was the fourth time it was hot.
During the hot food process, I couldn't help but wonder, if I could help Jian Wei win that business, get a reward, and then let myself enter the entrepreneurial state, would I have less time to spend with Micai?
