CBS TV station headquartered in New York has the highest coverage in the United States.
Before Fox TV entered the United States, this grandson looked almost carefree.
At this time, not only New York's Chinatown, but San Francisco's Chinatown also saw the food advertisement for "Amazing Nights in the Forbidden City" on TV.
It was just after 7 pm, and the food street that used to be bustling was still a bland scene lacking in oil and salt.
Along with it, the bookstores and video stores on the same street... all stopped with it.
The less business there is, the more reluctant the lights in each shop are to be lit.
Looking at it from a distance, the dim appearance is comparable to Chinatown in later generations during the conservative treatment of COVID-19.
Outside the door of Cuixiangge Tea Restaurant, several chefs were accompanying their boss Fang, standing in front of the door of their restaurant.
Looking at the words "Our dishes do not contain MSG" written in black and white on the glass door, several people's brows never relaxed.
"What should I say? Do you want to tear this paper?"
"How about... take a look at what happens in the next few days?"
"I also think we should watch it first before talking about it. Although the advertisement looks really exciting, no one can guarantee that it will be effective."
In the phone calls they received in advance, colleagues in New York's Chinatown repeatedly persuaded them to remove the signs.
Although the food commercial on TV just now made everyone excited.
But when it was time to take action, he started to grind again.
At this moment, the sound of a car engine approaching from afar at the street intersection made them all look over.
More than ten seconds later, several more cars drove over.
Just like that, while several cooks and Boss Fang were still in a daze.
San Francisco citizens in twos and threes have already excitedly opened the door and entered Cuixiang Pavilion.
Looking at his own restaurant, it suddenly became busy under his nose.
It wasn't until the proprietress excitedly came out to greet the chef that Boss Fang, who was full of surprise, quickly followed in with small steps.
The moment I passed by the store, I pulled down the "No MSG" sign with a hiss.
Sha, Si, Cha...
At the same time, in Chinatowns in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, etc., notices saying "no MSG" were being removed using various techniques.
I don’t know whether it’s because the food advertisements are too tempting, or because Americans who already love Chinese food have been holding back for too long.
Anyway, at this moment, Chinese restaurants of all sizes are experiencing a wave of retaliatory consumption.
At this time, Chen Zichao and Boss Fang did not realize that with the continuous broadcast of two commercials for "MSG Popular Science Animation" and "Wonderful Night in the Forbidden City".
Chinese restaurants in foreign countries will quickly enter a heyday.
The series of expansions that followed not only made them feel the new direction of getting rich by integrating inside and outside.
It will also allow domestic business bureaus to fully see the disruptive potential of a group of advertising campaigns.
…
But at this moment, several people gathered in the small hotel were talking to the TV media of other countries.
"No one is taking charge of this American TV station,"
As soon as he finished watching the advertisement he starred in, Huang Yongyu started to make irresponsible remarks to the TV:
"It's so easy to wait for a movie, but why do several commercials pop up soon after? It's really outrageous."
As soon as this was said, no one responded.
At this moment, except for two old comrades, the others in the guest room were either from TV stations or advertising companies.
When I look at the commercials on the left and right on the TV, I can’t help but envy them, who would open their mouths to criticize them?
That is to say, Wang Shixiang still feels sorry for his old friend: "You can't understand what it broadcasts anyway, so you might as well watch the advertisements and understand the four modernizations of American imperialism!"
After giving the other party a roll of his eyes, Huang Yongyu looked at the TV and began to stop talking.
Maybelline's fragrant red lips, Lux soap rubbing her calves, Brooke Shields' stockings, Apple computers saying "We are 100 times better than IBM"...
Looking around, cars have the most advertisements.
But at this moment, Jiang Shan was looking at Michael Jackson riding a Suzuki scooter on the TV with a smile on his face.
"Are American TV stations bought by the government?"
Looking at the scrolling election subtitles at the top and bottom of the screen, Wang Shixiang was completely convinced: "Why are you doing propaganda 24 hours a day?"
After Jiangshan and his party came to New York, they coincided with the 1980 U.S. election.
Comrades were dazzled by the overwhelming advertisements.
"That's right," Huang Hua said with a smile: "If we charge money, who can afford it?"
Wang Fulin also feels that these candidates who are everywhere are exaggerating to no end: "Don't let the president not be elected by then, and the family fortune will be lost first."
"Don't worry," Yu Sigui said at this time: "These candidates don't have to pay their own money, right Jiangshan?"
"Well," Jiang Shan nodded: "Someone will help them pay."
"Who?" Zhang Lu asked curiously: "Which scapegoat would do this?"
"I'm not being taken advantage of,"
Jiang Shan's eyes finally left the TV: "As for the old master of Anliang Hall that we heard about in Chinatown today, he brought a lot of sponsorship to Roseforia back then."
Wang Fulin: "The one who carried him to Tiananmen Square?"
"That's him," Jiang Shan said. "After his lawyer Roosevelt took the position of president, he immediately started the cancellation of the Chinese Exclusion Act."
"Why does this sound like a deal?" Wang Fulin asked, "Did they agree in advance?"
Jiang Shan affirmed: "Isn't it just a transaction?"
"Then President Luo's courage is really extraordinary!"
"He's not even brave," Jiang Shan said, "There are others who are even more outrageous than him."
Wang Fulin: "Who?"
"Nixon," Jiang Shan said, "Speaking of which, the key figure who helped him ascend to the throne was a female comrade in our country."
"who?"
Now not only Wang Fulin, but also Huang Yongyu and Wang Shixiang began to wonder: "Which woman in our country has this ability?"
Can you actually reach out to the United States?
"Have you all heard of Chennault?" Jiang Shan looked at everyone.
Huang Yongyu: "Who doesn't know him yet?"
Wang Shixiang: "Flying Tigers!"
"Although this man formed the Flying Tigers back then," Wang Fulin said, "our country doesn't have a good word to say about him."
In the eyes of Wang Fulin's generation, Chennault's political outlook has never been better.
In 1950, not long after the founding of New China, a 40-page comic book "Chennault the Snitch" was released.
The next year, Shanghai Film Studio shot another movie called "Chennault the Snitch."
Until the new edition of "Cihai" was released in 1979, you can still clearly see this description of him:
Smuggling and selling drugs, hunting for huge profits, reconnaissance and bombing of liberated areas...
However, Jiangshan knows that with the deepening of reform and opening up, Chennault's image will be re-evaluated next year.
"Chennault did two very awesome things back then," Jiang Shan continued: "One was to take the lead in forming the Flying Tigers, and the other was to marry a Chinese wife."
Several people who also married Chinese wives looked at the country together silently.
"The Chinese woman that Old Chen married is not a fuel-efficient lamp," Jiang Shan:
"Although she became a widow at a young age, she was no less successful in the United States than Lao Chen."
"Is the name of the person you are talking about called Chen Xiangmei?" Huang Yongyu has heard some of her stories: "Isn't she a guest of the old Jiang family?"
"Yes," Jiang Shan nodded: "That's her..."
As the first Chinese to enter the White House, Chen Xiangmei took every step very accurately.
In 1968, the United States, which was mired in the Vietnam War, held anti-war demonstrations almost every day.
This is not bad, seeing that people who work and go to school in their own country have no intention of doing it anymore.
Those who wanted to fuck the president immediately realized a decisive move: the armistice must be completed by themselves!
In order to prevent Johnson, who was seeking re-election, from succeeding in the "Vietnam War Peace Negotiations".
Candidate Nicolson appointed Chen Xiangmei, who had just joined the campaign team, as a special envoy.
Send a message to the South Vietnamese Embassy in Washington: As long as they boycott the peace talks, they can get Nixon's support in the future.
In the end, Chen Xiangmei fulfilled her mission and really convinced the ambassador.
"In this way, Nixon successfully won the election," Jiangshan Bapo said: "It was not until many years later when he resigned as president that this matter came out."
"In order to succeed in the election," Wang Shixiang said loudly: "Let the people of the two countries continue to fight?"
"No," Jiang Shan said, "One is the leader of the United States and the other is the ambassador of Vietnam. They all nodded. As the middleman, what does Chen Xiangmei care about?"
According to American historians, if it were not for Nixon and Chen Xiangmei, the Vietnam War might have ended in 1968.
As a result, with their efforts, the war not only dragged on until 1975, but also cost the lives of 20,000 Americans and millions of Vietnamese.
"Then after Chen Xiangmei helped,"
According to Situ Meitang's purpose of overturning the "Chinese Exclusion Act", Huang Yongyu wanted to know: "What benefits did Nicoson give her?"
"Leave the finances of the Republican Party in her hands."
"My dear, no wonder she works so hard."
"That's it, after Nicolson stepped down," Jiang Shan: "When faced with the interview, Chen Xiangmei still complained that the other party did not fulfill the original promise afterwards."
"This position is not enough," Huang Yongyu said, "Does she still want to go to heaven?"
"Don't tell me that she is really capable of this," Jiang Shan pointed to the picture of Reagan on TV and said, "Now, Chen Xiangmei has joined this comrade's campaign team again."
Wang Shixiang: "Come again?"
Huang Yongyu: "She is ready to take this road to the end!"
"As you see,"
At this time, Huang Hua looked at the TV and smiled: "Who among the two can win?"
Several people in the room were already familiar with the election follow-up report being broadcast on TV.
Zhang Lu: "Carter."
Wang Fulin also: "Carter."
For today's people, Carter's performance is still remarkable.
Wang Shixiang: "I also choose Carter."
"Speak like you can vote,"
Huang Yongyu, who holds a different opinion, believes: "In my opinion, Reagan should be more likely."
"Why?" Jiang Shante turned his head curiously: "Why is he so likely?"
"As for the bitch you just mentioned," Huang Yongyu said sharply: "It sounds like she is a powerful person. How could she not find out clearly before placing a bet? She will never choose a side easily without a 70% certainty."
"It makes sense," Jiang Shan nodded: "I also think Reagan will win, but it's not because of Chen Xiangmei."
Although this woman is powerful, it's not the time for her to be completely cheating yet.
"Then what's your reason?"
"Because of him," at this time, Yu Sigui slapped a newspaper on the table:
"It's because of him that Jiangshan chose to publish his bicycle advertisement in the New York Post."
"It's not just for this reason," Huang Hua said with a smile: "Jiang Shan and I wanted to place an advertisement in the New York Times, but the other party's price was too high."
"The tall ones are all over the place," Jiang Shan continued, "I feel like they are deliberately making things difficult."
"But compared to the circulation of The New York Times,"
Although he did not participate in the Pujiang Light Industry Bureau's mission, Wang Fulin still gave his own opinion: "The effect of publishing it in the New York Post is probably much worse."
Huang Hua: "There's nothing we can do about it, the total budget is only so much."
Wang Fulin: "Why do they want to temporarily increase prices?"
Huang Hua looked at Jiang Shan: "The advertisement designed by Jiang Shan is indeed a bit difficult to type. The other party will definitely not miss this opportunity to increase the price."
Zhang Lu: “Then why didn’t the New York Post increase its price?”
"Didn't Manager Huang just say that?" Jiang Shan glanced at the other party: "The circulation of the New York Post is not good."
"Aren't you worried that a newspaper with low circulation will not be effective?"
"Don't worry, its owner is no ordinary person,"
Jiang Shan pointed to a copy of the New York Post on the table: "In the ten days since we came to New York, the circulation of the New York Post has skyrocketed like a rocket."
Faced with the sky-high asking price from the New York Times, Jiangshan turned around and sent the bicycle advertisement to the New York Post.
After getting the reply that it can be published, but it is difficult to schedule.
Jiangshan simply pushed the release date of the advertisement to one day after the news of "announcement of test launch of the launch vehicle" was released.
"Why is this?" Huang Yongyu was surprised: "What has this newspaper done recently to increase its circulation in more than ten days?"
"The owner of this newspaper is named Rupert Murdoch," Jiang Shan clicked on the New York Post:
"Currently, he is using his own newspaper to build momentum for candidate Ronald Reagan. Do you know who Murdoch has promoted to leadership positions before this?"
"who?"
"Thatcher."
"..." Wang Fulin: "So you think Reagan may win?"
"Well," Jiang Shan became excited when he mentioned running a newspaper: "This Mr. Murdoch from Australia bought the British "Sun" in the early 1970s..."
Relying on bizarre criminal cases, explosive pornographic news, political scandals...
Murdoch quickly turned the light and watery "Sun" into a small pornographic newspaper.
"At that time, if any editor published a serious piece of news in The Sun, he would immediately be scolded by Murdoch," Jiang Shan:
"Last year, in order to help Thatcher, Murdoch published a full-page editorial in The Sun.
The content is half-true, half-false, suspenseful, and full of explosive stories about members of the opponent's campaign team.
Because it followed the actual facts, the circulation volume increased in a very short period of time. I don’t need to talk about the final result.”
There was no one in the room who didn't know what Thatcher's current job position was.
"In return," Jiang Shan said what everyone wanted to know most:
"Thatcher helped Murdoch complete the acquisition of The Times, which is currently the most influential newspaper in the UK."
"..."
This is the first time I heard about Wang Fulin, the bullshit person in foreign countries, and the more I heard about it, the more he became more and more confused: "Can a newspaper help a person reach the top?"
Jiang Shan smiled: "When our CCTV catches up with the American and British TV stations, you will understand how influential the media is."
Several people in the room looked at each other.
Only today did they understand that this is the democracy that capitalism talks about all day long?
"Let's take a look at the recent "New York Post"," Jiang Shan opened the newspaper on the table: "Is it exactly the same as last year's "The Sun"?"
I watched the newspapers praising Reagan and slandering Carter for a full page, especially those eye-catching pictures...
As long as the comrades who could understand English all nodded silently.
"So," Jiang Shan said firmly, "even if we publish the advertisement in the New York Post, the effect will not be much worse."
As long as the other party can layout according to their own design, Jiangshan's advertisement will be popular wherever it is published.
…
The next day, with the publication of the New York Post, advertisements for Phoenix and Forever bicycles also appeared in front of some New Yorkers.
It was not long after 8 o'clock in the morning, and the group still didn't know how effective the advertisement was.
I was about to go to a warehouse supermarket on Eighth Avenue in Manhattan under the leadership of Jiang Shan.
But when they walked out of the door of the small hotel, they were stunned by the crowd of people outside.
"this……?"
Just when several comrades were confused about the situation, former Detective O Detective Chen Zichao walked out of the crowd with a smile:
