Chapter 197 National Propaganda (Part 2)

Ke Zhan Chi was signing autographs.

His hands were shaking.

His autographs were naturally ugly.

His fans...

The so-called fans, if you really observe them, you will find that they are actually a bunch of extras.

Except that the clothes they wore were different from those of the reporters before, even Ke Zhan Chi suspected that they were the same group of people.

This false feeling did not give Ke Zhan Chi any sense of vanity, but made him look anxious.

He glanced at Zhang Sheng from the corner of his eye.

Zhang Sheng was still chatting with Nie Xiaoping, the boss of [Hongwei Electric Vehicle].

When Zhang Sheng saw Nie Xiaoping, he chatted with Nie Xiaoping about the "joint" publicity. The two seemed to have planned something, and vaguely heard some county, some city, some district...

Not far away, a group of staff pushed out a battery car, dismantling it while assembling something.

Because there were many "fake fans" around, asking him to sign autographs and asking him questions about the movie "That Summer", Ke Zhan Chi could not see clearly what they were pretending to be.

But he was sure!

It was definitely not a good thing.

In the distance...

Many reporters came over again. Ke Zhanchi thought these reporters were "actors" at first glance, but then he felt that they were not "actors" and seemed to be real reporters invited by Zhang Sheng?

More than ten minutes later.

Waves of more lively sounds came over.

Ke Zhanchi subconsciously looked over there...

He saw Ah K with a guitar on his back coming!

After seeing Ah K, the reporters swarmed over there.

As the songs sold better and better and his popularity increased, Ah K, a former wandering singer, became one of the hottest singers at the moment...

After Ah K briefly chatted with the reporters, he took off the guitar on his back, sat at the door of the store, and began to sing songs affectionately.

As the singing sounded...

More and more people were watching along the way.

Ke Zhanchi couldn't tell which were the "actors" invited by Zhang Sheng and which were the real fans who came here because of his reputation...

"In the next month, I will go on a nationwide tour with the movie "That Summer". Oh, right! A nationwide free tour. Everyone is enthusiastic and I will keep singing! Next stop, Tianjin!"

Ah K's words instantly attracted screams and cheers!

The reporters hurriedly held the microphone to Ah K's face.

It seemed that the words "national free tour" were very attractive to them!

The noisy voices made Ke Zhanchi particularly irritating.

"By the way, Director Ke has some big news to reveal!"

"Everyone, hurry up and find him!"

Then, he saw Ah K walked into the [Hongwei Electric Vehicle] store surrounded by reporters, but before walking in, he suddenly turned his head and smiled at Ke Zhanchi very strangely.

Ke Zhanchi was completely stunned!

Big news?

What news?

Why don't I know!

After hearing this, a group of reporters suddenly surrounded Ke Zhanchi excitedly.

The light was so bright that Ke Zhanchi was blinded.

He took a deep breath.

Facing the expectant eyes of the reporters, he couldn't say anything for a long time.

He felt that his brain was getting more and more rigid, and he couldn't keep up with the rhythm of these people at all.

This state of frustration didn't last long.

He heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from the side.

Then, he and the reporters turned their heads subconsciously.

Then, he saw a new sign hanging next to the sign of [Hongwei Electric Vehicle].

On the new sign, there was a portrait of singer Ah K, who stretched out his hands and waved to the front in a very handsome manner.

[Hongwei Electric Vehicle] seemed to have signed Ah K as the image spokesperson...

Then, next to the new sign, a huge banner was pulled open, and the banner read "Home Appliances Going to the Countryside with Full Discounts"!

Next to these big words, another banner was pulled open, and the banner read [International Movies Going to the Countryside]!

After Ke Zhan Chi read these words, his head buzzed again. He felt like thousands of horses were running through his heart. He couldn't even curse!

He took a deep breath!

What the hell are these people doing!

How can you promote a movie like this? This is down-to-earth, right?

More than ten minutes later...

Amidst the clamor, Ke Zhan Chi finally found a chance to hide in the store of [Hongwei Electric Vehicle] to rest.

He saw Ah K, Zhang Sheng, and Nie Xiaoping were all there.

Then...

He saw Nie Xiaoping signing a contract with Ah K and Zhang Sheng.

Are these people here to promote the movie, or are they here to do business?

After signing the contract, Nie Xiaoping and Ah K were talking about the content of the national tour.

But Zhang Sheng put away the contract and walked towards Ke Zhan Chi with a smile.

Ke Zhan Chi drank a glass of water, and after seeing Zhang Sheng coming over, he instinctively stood up.

At this moment, somehow, he was a little scared when he saw Zhang Sheng. He always felt that Zhang Sheng was going to lead him into a pit, and once he was in the pit, he couldn't climb out!

"Mr. Zhang, I don't think I can adapt to this rhythm. I'm not anxious at all now!" He looked at Zhang Sheng.

"Director Ke, this is just the first step of the Long March. We have to go to the high-speed rail station."

"Why go to the high-speed rail station?"

"For national publicity! I can't take a plane now, so I can only ask you to take the high-speed rail with me..."

"Mr. Zhang, can I... can I not take that broken van?" Ke Zhanchi was silent for a moment, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying.

"We won't take it this time, we'll take a convertible..." Zhang Sheng pushed his glasses and began to look serious.

"Really?"

"Really... Director Ke, I won't lie to anyone, let alone my own people. What good will it do for me if I lie to you?"

"Oh."

Ke Zhanchi nodded.

Rented a convertible sports car and swaggered through the streets?

Although it was a bit exaggerated, it seemed...

There was still some publicity!

Perhaps Zhang Sheng's eyes were very serious and sincere, Ke Zhanchi believed it after all, and then, thinking about how he looked like sitting in a sports car.

The complex feeling in his heart was slightly better.

He stood up and followed Zhang Sheng out.

Outside the house.

The sun was shining.

There was no broken van, nor the so-called sports car.

When he walked to the door, when he saw the parked electric bikes with horns installed and the staff debugging them, his face suddenly changed!

Convertible!

What the hell!

Tell me, convertible is this thing?

A bad premonition rose in his heart again.

Then, he suppressed the emotion in his heart and looked at Zhang Sheng as if holding the last bit of hope: "Mr. Zhang, it won't be..."

"Get in the car, you can ride an electric bike, right?"

"I... I can..."

"Then get in the car, this one is for you to ride, you will miss the train if you are late!"

Ke Zhanchi saw Zhang Sheng sitting on the electric bike, and then put a flag behind the electric bike, on which hung the movie poster of "That Summer"!

The poster read the eye-catching words "National Tour".

He saw a group of actors sitting on the electric bike one after another, forming a long line.

This time...

"Good news, good news, buy [Hongwei electric car] and watch the "Midsummer" movie!"

"Good news, good news, our store has a new batch of [Bosch] batteries, first come first served, and there are movie tickets, director's autographs, photos with superstar singers and other gifts!"

"Good news, good news..."

The wind is blowing.

The rain has stopped!

"Get in the car, follow behind, don't fall behind! The photographers behind are ready!"

Ke Zhanzhi's facial muscles twitched slightly.

It was a feeling of social death.

He looked at the brand new [Hongwei electric car] parked next to him, and then...

He looked at Zhang Sheng who continued to look at him with that serious and serious expression.

"I want to sit in the camera car..."

"This will not have the effect of publicity, Director Ke, you are the protagonist, you have to show your face more..."

"But..."

"Take the car!"

In Zhang Sheng's eyes, Ke Zhanzhi made a bitter face, and finally followed the mighty team in front and drove towards the high-speed rail station.

When the car started, the pre-installed horn sounded.

Shouting "Good news, good news"...

Along the way, a group of people looked at the electric car team and looked sideways...

The background music was Ah K's "In the Rain", singing and driving, with some slightly explosive melodies.

Ke Zhan Chi was in the crowd, with a droopy face, and he really couldn't describe his emotions at the moment.

Damn it!

This electric car can only go 25 mph, and it can't accelerate even if you want to!

Fortunately!

There are some areas in Yanjing where you can't make loud noises.

These areas finally gave Ke Zhan Chi some quietness, and the annoying horn stopped ringing, but when he saw everyone's pointing eyes and the traffic police staring at them...

Ke Zhan Chi felt that he had lost all his face in this life.

The road to the high-speed railway station was a torture for Ke Zhan Chi every minute and every second.

National publicity!

Damn it!

You won't ride an electric car to promote it every day, right?

Damn it, am I going to embarrass myself nationwide?

Is this down-to-earth?

It's so embarrassing, okay?

………………………………

After getting on the train, Ke Zhanchi finally felt a moment of peace.

He closed his eyes.

He tried to have a good rest.

But he couldn't fall asleep.

As soon as he closed his eyes, he heard the annoying advertisements and the melody of "In the Rain" sung by Ah K in the background music.

Then, he finally opened his eyes again.

This is simply mental pollution.

Unable to sleep, he finally picked up his phone and prepared to call the company to ask if the company knew about Zhang Sheng's mess in the promotion of the movie "That Summer".

The call was quickly connected.

"Director Ke, don't you know?"

"What do I know?"

"We have already paid the 200,000 yuan publicity fee to Zhang Sheng..."

"All of it?"

"Yes, all of it. When [NC Studio] signed the contract with us, did you forget that [NC Studio] was responsible for publicity? We were just providing assistance?"

"But their nationwide publicity is... too outrageous! How can you drive an electric car and promote a movie on the streets?"

"You are famous because you don't follow the ordinary path."

"Then..."

"I have to be busy, Director Ke, you should cooperate with Zhang Sheng in the publicity."

"Hello, hello?"

Ke Zhanchi hung up the phone.

Not long after hanging up the phone, he saw Zhang Sheng sitting next to him while talking on the phone.

"Hello? Is this a Green Power electric car?"

"..."

"Oh, if Ah K appears, he can theoretically earn 10,000 yuan for singing a day..."

"..."

"Mr. Shen, actually, let's put it this way, the Green Horse electric car is not part of our tour route this time. We are mainly promoting the movie..."

"..."

"This...hey, it's really not about money. Our schedule is full..."

"..."

"You put ads for our movie on your store?"

"..."

"Okay, then I'll think about it..."

Zhang Sheng finished the call.

Ke Zhanyi stared at Zhang Sheng: "Mr. Zhang, tell me honestly, are you promoting the movie or making money?"

"Director Ke, didn't I tell you that we are going to pick up money now?"

"But, this..."

"Okay, Director Ke, please relax, I won't harm you..."

"..."
