Several chief editors in the office looked at each other and then looked down at Jiang Shan's drawings.
Afterwards, they all laughed together.
It turns out that this is what Jiang Shan calls "attacking the heart."
Jiang Hai stared at Lao San's drawing and thought over and over:
Since business-to-business communication and discussion have not yielded any results, it would be better to try Lao San’s trick.
Even if this "air-tight flattery" has no effect after being photographed, there is no shame in it.
Anyway, it is the postmen who are being praised. Their daily work is indeed very hard, so it is normal to praise them.
"Then let's settle it," Jiang Hai looked at Cai Wensheng: "Leave the comics column to Section Chief Jiang for three days, and then do whatever you want."
"Okay," Cai Wensheng nodded immediately: "Tomorrow's cartoon will be published first with this one."
"Happiness Coke has made a lot of money these days," Jiang Shan reported the results: "Have you reserved the advertising space you reserved two days ago?"
Jiang Hai's first point: "One-fifth of the banners on tomorrow's fourth page will be theirs."
"Okay," Jiang Shan took out the advertising design: "This is the advertising display designed by our department. In addition to tomorrow, we have to arrange three days for them next week."
"The frequency is so high," Rong Bin said in surprise: "It seems that Happy Coke has made a lot of money."
Editor-in-Chief Jiang picked up the design drawing: "The profit their factory made this summer is enough to keep others busy for a year."
As soon as I finished speaking, I saw the photos in the design drawings.
Next to the rows of eye-catching promotional slogans, the photos of Liu Xiaoqing and Nakano Ryoko are particularly eye-catching.
"It's finally going to be published," Jiang Hai couldn't help but laugh: "It seems that Happy Coke will continue to be popular."
Cai Wensheng had seen this photo a long time ago: "Now it's good, not only Liu Xiaoqing is included, but Mayumi is also involved."
Jiang Shan said with a matter-of-fact expression: "That's right, whoever is popular will be the winner. It has always been a fast track for advertising."
Rong Bin took the design drawing over and said: "Liu Xiaoqing is very popular recently, both for "Little Flower" and for advertising."
"Jiangshan," Cai Wensheng asked curiously: "I heard that Liu Xiaoqing has another movie to be released. Is this the case?"
"Yes," Jiang Shan nodded: "It's a movie from Yan Film Studio. You can see it next month. It's called "Look at This Family."
"If you put it this way," Jiang Hai suddenly realized a problem: "Comrade Liu Xiaoqing should be the most popular actress this year."
The subsequent finalization meeting went as smoothly as ever.
The whole newspaper has one goal, which is to reflect the joyful atmosphere of Mid-Autumn Festival reunion in tomorrow's "Oriental Metropolis Daily".
After the meeting, Yu Sigui, who had always been a transparent person, immediately got up and walked towards the country.
But she watched helplessly as he chased after Cai Wensheng.
"Editor Cai," Jiang Shan asked next to him: "How did the things I asked you to do a few days ago go? Have you heard anything about me?"
"If you don't ask, I will come find you later," Cai Wensheng said with a mysterious smile:
"Lao Bi has been keeping an eye on you. I just received a call this morning. All the clothes I bought from Xiangjiang have been put into the group."
"Really?" Jiang Shan's eyes lit up.
"This can still be false," Cai Wensheng then frowned: "But, the thing you asked him to do... probably can't be done."
"difficult?"
"He is a screenwriter and usually timid," Cai Wensheng shook his head: "I asked him to help take some costume photos, and he was so scared just hearing about it."
"I didn't think it through," Jiang Shan said in self-examination: "I shouldn't put a burden on your screenwriter friend."
"What should we do?" Cai Wensheng seemed to be particularly concerned about this matter: "How about letting him bring you into the team?"
"When will the crew of "Romance in Lushan" depart?"
"I heard I'm leaving next week," Cai Wensheng kindly reminded: "My friend said that if you want to go, tomorrow is the best chance."
"Okay," Jiang Shan nodded: "As long as the clothes are in place, I will take care of the rest!"
"Then be careful yourself!"
Before leaving, Cai Wensheng patted Jiang Shan on the shoulder.
"Hey," Yu Sigui caught up behind him: "What are you talking about? What costumes are in place?"
"I saw an opportunity to make a fortune,"
Jiang Shan led Yu Sigui and walked quickly in the corridor: "There is a movie going to be released next year, and it is expected to be very popular."
"What does this have to do with you?"
"The heroine of that movie will change 43 costumes during the film."
"So many," Yu Sigui said in surprise: "There are none like this in Japan."
The reason why the movie "Romance in Lushan" caused a sensation at that time has a lot to do with the frequency of the heroine wearing a costume every two minutes.
This completely surpasses Maggie Cheung's 23 sets of cheongsam in "In the Mood for Love", and there is still no film and television work that can compare.
"The key is that the director and costume designer personally bought these clothes in Hong Kong,"
Speaking of this, Jiang Shan glanced at the sky blue dress Yu Sigui was wearing: "It's probably more interesting than yours."
"I don't believe it," Yu Sigui puffed up his chest: "My clothes are very eye-catching even in Japan."
"It depends on who you compare with. You can't underestimate Xiangjiang today."
"Jiang Shan," Yu Sigui rolled his eyes at this moment: "You are not thinking about these clothes, are you?"
"What would you do if it were you?"
"If this movie really becomes popular," Yu Sigui is well aware of the charm of celebrity costumes: "then these clothes will definitely be hot sellers next year."
"Shh," Jiang Shan looked around: "Why are you so loud? I can't tell you anything in the future."
"Then please keep your voice down," Yu Sigui hurriedly hummed, "Can I be included in this deal?"
"Am I sick?"
Jiang Shan decisively refused. In fact, doing private work these days is really inseparable from Yu Sigui's identity.
"You have the final say on how much you get," Yu Sigui said anxiously.
Before this, she had only heard that after the movie was released, the celebrity's outfits became popular in the market.
Unexpectedly, I could predict it in advance.
Somehow, Miss Yu really enjoyed the feeling of predicting the market in advance: "Take me to play for a while."
"It's not easy to source this information,"
Before Jiang Shan was ready to let go, he pulled Yu Sigui aside: "The person who provided us with the information is the screenwriter of this movie."
Yu Sigui nodded silently.
Jiang Shan continued in a low voice: "First of all, we have to take photos of these 43 pieces of clothing, select suitable styles, and then go to the clothing factory for processing. However, we must not let the clothing factory know the origin of these styles."
"Understood," Yu Sigui was not stupid: "If we let them know, nothing will happen to us."
"Yes,"
Jiang Shan nodded. In his opinion, Yu Sigui will be his best partner: "So, once this matter is leaked, it will be difficult to deal with money."
"Don't worry about me," Yu Sigui patted her chest and said, "I don't care about anyone in the country, I don't want to say anything."
Jiang Shan was most satisfied with this aspect of her: "Stop patting your breasts, can I still believe you?"
"Haha," Yu Sigui said cheerfully and excitedly: "Then what should we do next?"
"Let's make mooncakes first."
"Huh?" Yu Sigui's mind was immediately stuck.
"My niece and nephew are here," Jiang Shan pointed at the gate and said with a smile, "I'll take them to the bakery opposite to play for a while, and then we'll go do our business."
"Oh, I almost forgot that tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival," Yu Sigui looked at the door: "Take me with you, I haven't made mooncakes yet!"
"Come on, I didn't do it either."
"Third uncle!"
From a distance, Jiang Xiaobai saw Jiang Shan's figure.
He let go of his uncle's hand and ran over.
Jiang Xiaoyu also wanted to run away, but after taking a look at the stranger next to his third uncle, he still walked over obediently.
"Leave it to you, Third Brother."
After seeing Jiang Shan, Jiang He released his hands in time.
This is what they both agreed on last night.
Although I don’t know why the third child took the two children to play in the bakery, I don’t know what fun there is in the bakery.
However, he still sent the two children to Jiang Shan on time.
"My second brother, Jiang He," Jiang Shan briefly introduced: "This is Yu Sigui, the one from Japan."
"oh,"
Jiang He understood immediately and nodded.
Yu Sigui also said hello openly.
Afterwards, the two children followed their third uncle into the fragrant bakery.
"It smells so good, Third Uncle." Jiang Xiaobai kept repeating.
Along the way, even the air was fragrant and sweet.
While standing in the bread factory, Jiang Xiaoyu couldn't help but say: "It's great to work in the bread factory."
"The bread you usually eat is produced here," Jiang Shan looked at Director Lin and said with a smile, "Thank you quickly, Director Lin."
"Thank you, Director Lin."
The two children followed their third uncle and called the factory director. Director Lin wanted to laugh: "You are so good. Do you usually like to eat moon cakes?"
"like!"
"That's good," Director Lin said with a smile, "Today, the director's aunt will come and teach you how to make mooncakes, okay?"
The two children already knew what they were going to play today. When they heard this, they immediately replied with a smile: "Okay!"
Next, several people who had washed their hands and put on white work clothes were led into the food operation room by Director Lin.
"I really want to thank you today," Jiang Shan, who was following Director Lin, whispered, "I have caused trouble for everyone."
"It's a trivial matter," Director Lin put a white hat on the children, and Jiang Xiaobai's face immediately became rounder.
For a moment, Yu Sigui only felt itchy in her hands, thinking that she would find an opportunity to squeeze them a few times later.
Seeing the children still standing there, Director Lin immediately issued an order: "Xiao Zhang and Xiao Wang, teach the children how to make mooncakes."
"coming!"
Soon, two lesbians came over with smiling faces.
Then, Yu Sigui, who also changed into work clothes, followed behind them.
Jiang Shan did not follow him, he only stood aside with Director Lin and watched silently.
On one side of the long table, the various guys who make moon cakes are arranged in an orderly manner.
In a short time, the two children went from not daring to get started at first to rushing to stuff dough into the mold...
"Is that little fat guy the son of Editor-in-Chief Jiang?" Director Lin asked curiously.
"They are both my eldest brother's children."
"Both?"
"right."
"That's great." Look, Director Lin was envious: "You have a son and a daughter, your eldest brother is a lucky man."
Jiang Shan smiled without saying anything, quietly raised the camera to the two children's little faces covered in flour, and pressed the shutter.
Nowadays, the people would never think that activities such as pulling radishes and making noodles would become entertainment items for children in future generations.
Therefore, when Jiang Shan proposed to take his children to play in the bakery, the whole family looked at him as if he were a fool.
But now looking at the happy smiling faces of the children, Jiang Shan just felt that he was too wise.
Knead the dough, stuff it with bean paste, and then knock out the mooncake mold.
When a mooncake with Chang'e flying to the moon printed on it fell from the mold, the two children were so happy that they almost jumped up and clapped.
"August and fifteenth month are bright...ah"
Jiang Xiaoyu, who never sang in front of outsiders, started singing without even realizing it.
Jiang Xiaobai sang along: "Grandpa is making mooncakes for me..."
Immediately afterwards, cheerful singing sounded throughout the operation room.
Even Yu Sigui on the side also started to hum.
It's quite a festive atmosphere.
"Chief Jiang," Director Lin took the opportunity to say, "I really need to thank you for this incident."
"Thank you for what you are doing," Jiang Shan quickly waved his hand: "It's all small things, don't be polite to me."
"It's no small matter," Director Lin said seriously:
“Everyone who purchased the mooncakes told me that if our mooncake boxes didn’t have the words ‘A happy moon brings a happy reunion’, they wouldn’t buy from a new factory like ours!”
"Really?" Jiang Shan smiled: "Well, in the future, as long as it is a packaging box from your factory, I will definitely think of a few good words for it."
"This is what you said, I will take it to heart."
Director Lin was waiting for Jiang Shan's words.
It wasn't until the closing bell rang that the two children walked out of the bakery satisfied.
Everyone, big and small, had a box of mooncakes in their hands.
"Take these home," Jiang Shan handed the mooncake box to the eldest brother who came to pick up the child.
When Jiang Hai, who was pushing his bicycle, saw so many mooncakes, his eyes widened: "They made these?"
"This is not enough," Jiang Shan rubbed the two children's heads.
"How long can you have fun making mooncakes?" Jiang Hai really didn't expect: "How much did these mooncakes cost?"
Having said that, I was ready to pay.
"It didn't cost any money," Jiang Shan said. "It was all given by Director Lin."
Just these few mooncakes are made, but Director Lin doesn't dare to sell them.
"How about that?"
"There's nothing wrong with it," Jiang Shan explained: "Just think of it as the previous packaging box design fee."
"The door is waiting here," Jiang Hai smiled and shook his head: "Then it's hard work for Third Uncle!"
"Thank you for your hard work, uncle!" the two children shouted happily.
"Go home quickly and don't forget to leave some mooncakes for your third uncle!"
Jiang Hai, who was already on his bicycle, waved his hand: "It's probably impossible!"
"Hey!" Jiang Shan said with a smile.
Then, he led Yu Sigui towards the bus stop.
"Don't worry," Yu Sigui smiled and raised the mooncake box in his hand: "I still have one box here!"
"Don't bother with that box of mooncakes."
"Why?"
"Director Gu is waiting for us at the TV station," Jiang Shan looked at the time and said, "This box of mooncakes was brought to him."
