Reborn since 1993

Chapter 571: The breeze blows over the hills, the bright moon shines on the river

When the TV commercial ended, the last sentence of the advertisement made Zhu Yingling, who lives in a residential area in Yanjing, and countless viewers who were watching the CCTV-1 program at the moment, turn their eyes to their own daughters.

Zhu Yingling didn't look closely at the content of the advertisement, but she heard the last slogan clearly.

East Asian families have attached the same importance to education for thousands of years. The same is true for the elites in America and old Europe.

Even the elite education in America is more rigorous than that in China. The American elite does not engage in happy education. The private schools they attend are very strict, with homework, exams, and rankings being full, and there are tutors waiting for them when they return home.

The sentence, "Mom doesn't have to worry about my studies anymore," touched Zhu Yingling's heart directly.

Zhu Yingling and her husband also graduated from prestigious universities. Growing up, their parents never gave them any extra lessons or tutoring, and they had to rely entirely on their own initiative and self-study.

But when it comes to her daughter's generation, the two of them have been tutoring their daughters with homework since the first grade of elementary school, but what's the effect... Anyway, she would rather buy groceries, cook, wash dishes, and mop the floor three times than tutor her leaky little girl with homework. She is afraid that she will be angry to death!
But no matter how angry they are, they have to counsel him, after all, he is their biological child. No matter how angry they are, they have to raise him.

Zhu Yingling had no idea whether the Shenzhou electronic dictionary was useful or not, but she couldn't help but wonder, what if it was really useful?

In addition to studying, the advertisement also aroused Zhu Yingling's maternal love. No matter how bad her little daughter was, she was the one she gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy. If other families bought electronic dictionaries but she didn't buy one for her daughter, and if she missed the opportunity, she would probably regret it for the rest of her life.

Central Media One is not like other local TV stations which would broadcast advertisements for a whole day and night. However, Central Media One only broadcast the electronic dictionary advertisement once.

At this time, Zhu Yingling was not in the mood to watch the "Thunderstorm" TV series. She picked up the remote control, started changing channels, and looked for the TV commercial for Shenzhou Electronic Dictionary.

After flipping through several TV stations, Zhu Yingling saw another advertisement for an electronic dictionary, but it was a different commercial.

This time, the commercial featured a young-looking boy who walked out of the TOEFL examination room as if he had lost his mind. There was no doubt that he had failed the test again.

The boy was walking on the street in a daze, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the background of the commercial was also dark. It was obvious that the boy in the commercial was at the lowest point in his life.

In the background of the ad, some boys' reminiscences can be heard. The boys once vowed that they would study abroad at Stanford, Princeton, and MIT, but their voices became smaller and smaller, and then a cold voice was heard, "I failed the TOEFL test!"

The rain began to fall, and the boy in the picture became a drowned rat. The atmosphere was reaching its peak.

As he turned the corner, the boy stumbled and fell to the ground. When he looked up, an advertising slogan appeared in front of him, "Shenzhou Electronic Dictionary, Helps You with IELTS and TOEFL!"

When the boy saw the advertisement, he got up from the ground and rushed into the store that sold Shenzhou electronic dictionaries.

The camera turned and showed a boy in a white laboratory coat explaining something to several students around him. He looked like a man who had returned from studying abroad and had become a scientific research talent.

The boy then turned toward the camera, took out an electronic dictionary from his pocket, and said the slogan, "Shenzhou electronic dictionary, help dreams come true!"

The content of the advertisements is not complicated at all. The first advertisement is for the Shenzhou electronic dictionary, which helps parents reduce the pressure of tutoring and improve English scores. As for the second advertisement, Zhu Yingling can clearly see that it is shot for the students who stay at home.

This advertisement hits directly into the hearts of another large group in China: people in China who want to study abroad, or parents who want to send their children to study abroad, who hope that studying abroad can change the fate of their family and their children. What do they think when they see this advertisement?

After watching these two advertisements, Zhu Yingling was itching to go abroad. Although she knew her daughter was not cut out for studying abroad, what if, after using this thing, her academic performance improved, and she could study abroad in the future... Zhu Yingling didn't dare to think further.

Later, Zhu Yingling saw the third advertisement of Shenzhou Electronic Dictionary during the Focus Media TV shopping commercial time on a TV station.

Compared with the first two advertisements, the character in the third advertisement is a college graduate who wears a pair of black-framed glasses and joins a small company. He works day and night and is scolded by his boss from time to time.

One year after the commercial appeared, in a rental house, the college student in the commercial was eating instant noodles with a tired look on his face while flipping through recruitment information in the newspaper, obviously wanting to get a new job.

But after flipping through a few pages, it was obvious that I was not suitable. The academic qualifications, work experience, and ability requirements were not in place. Finally, with a look of disappointment, I stopped my gaze on a position in a foreign trade company. The salary for this position was very high, but the position required proficiency in English or Japanese, German and other languages, and it was obvious that college students did not have that level.

I don’t know what the person in the commercial remembered at the end, but he gritted his teeth, picked up his Xiaolingtong cell phone and made a call.

Then a moment later, there was a knock on the door of the rental house. The man in the advertisement opened the door and it turned out to be a courier from Oriental Express, who brought him a Shenzhou electronic dictionary.

At the end of the advertisement, of course, the people inside enter the foreign trade company, get promoted and get a raise, and enter a new stage of life. The slogan is from Shenzhou Dictionary: Give life a chance!
Zhu Yingling watched all three commercials. With her education level, she could certainly see that all three commercials contained some exaggeration, but they were not completely out of touch with the current domestic situation.

Especially the second and third commercials, if you can study abroad now and gain a foothold overseas, your income will indeed be much higher than in China.

After returning from studying abroad, their resumes are quite impressive, and it is much easier for them to find jobs, get promotions and salary increases than for those who graduated from domestic universities.

The third commercial, in the commercial, relying on electronic dictionaries to become proficient in English, that's a bit bullshit, this thing can only play an auxiliary role at most, if it can really make a person with no basic knowledge of English translation proficient, then it can't be sold for 699, it should be sold for ... But what is shown in the commercial, that learn English, acquire foreign trade experience, enter foreign trade companies, foreign enterprises, or work as translators, and get high salaries, is true, now there is a shortage of high-end professional talents in China.

Zhu Yingling looked through it for a long time and found only three commercials for the Shenzhou electronic dictionary. Especially at this time, commercials for electronic dictionaries began to appear intensively on TV stations.

The phrase "Mom doesn't have to worry about my studies anymore" was circulated on different TV stations. Just hearing it once can start playing in people's minds...

Without hesitation, Zhu Yingling saw the advertising call on TV and called Focus Media's TV shopping channel.

"I want a Shenzhou electronic dictionary!"

"What color of Shenzhou electronic dictionary do you want? Do you need any accessories such as an SD memory card, spare batteries, or a protective case for the electronic dictionary?"

Zhu Yingling made several phone calls, but the lines were always busy. She didn't know how many people were calling that the customer service line of Focus Media was fully occupied.

After waiting for four or five minutes, the call was finally connected. Then the customer service staff asked Zhu Yingling which version of the electronic dictionary she needed.

After hanging up the phone, Zhu Yingling nodded at the girl who was watching TV with relish, "I have spent a lot of money on you. If your grades don't improve, will you be worthy of me?"

The girl who was pointed at by Zhu Yingling looked at her blankly, not knowing which house rule she had violated. There was no exam this week!
……

"Hurry, load all the goods, they are waiting at the provincial airport!
In Pingyang, western Han, the Dongling High-tech Electronic Industrial Park is brightly lit at this moment. Electronic dictionaries that have just come off the production line and passed the inspection are immediately loaded onto trucks and sent to the provincial capital airport, where cargo planes are waiting for these machines.

It was almost midnight at the Pingyang Dongling Hi-Tech headquarters, but it was still busy. All departments were busy and the phone almost never stopped ringing.

"Please open more customer service seats for me. Now when I call in, I have to wait four and a half minutes to get through. I don't care what time it is now, open new customer service seats for me immediately!"

Li Yan, who had not yet returned to Yanjing, was furious at the Focus Media executive on the other end of the phone.

Focus Media had anticipated that the number of calls would increase after the electronic dictionary advertisement was released, but it did not expect it to reach such a point that the customer service phone number of Focus Media's TV shopping was flooded with calls!
Li Dongling, Ren Yuefeng, Zhang Ao, Hu Zixian and others looked at Li Yan. After they exchanged glances, Zhang Ao said, "It seems that we can't calculate the pre-order sales from Focus Media tonight!"

Focus Media is in chaos right now, and the customer service phone number of its TV shopping service has been flooded with calls. What statistics can be drawn? The sales forecast will definitely be delayed.

"Then we'll see tomorrow, based on the sales figures from various places!"

Li Dongling looked at everyone and said that the customer service phone of Focus Media was flooded with calls, which, to a certain extent, was a glimpse into the level of domestic users' acceptance of the Shenzhou electronic dictionary.

……

At around four o'clock in the morning in Yangcheng, Chen Zuhan personally brought a group of people to the Yangcheng airport to pick up the plane. After the two large cargo boxes came out of the airport, they were moved onto a truck by Chen Zuhan's people, and then a large group of people and more than a dozen vehicles escorted the truck back.

You can't blame Chen Zuhan for making a fuss. These two large cargo boxes can hold 100,000 Shenzhou electronic dictionaries. The first batch of Shenzhou electronic dictionaries will be put on the domestic market, and one-fifth of the goods were delivered to Chen Zuhan.

One hundred thousand machines, with a total value of over seventy million, plus various spare parts and accessories, the total amount exceeds eighty million. This is eighty million. If something goes wrong and they are robbed, it will probably be a major case that will shock the entire Guangdong Province.

As the general agent in Guangdong Province, after receiving the goods, Chen Zuhan distributed the machines to distributors in various cities in Guangdong Province.

By the time the sun rose, the machines had been transported to various cities in Guangdong Province, and the 40,000 machines that remained in Guangzhou were also transported to various shopping malls, electrical appliance stores, and electronic retail stores and placed on the counters.

Although he barely slept all night, Chen Zuhan was very excited. This was his first battle after becoming the general agent of Dongling Hi-Tech in Guangdong Province. Whether he could enjoy good life in the future depended on this time.

He drove directly to Yangcheng Department Store, just like the day when he was the agent for the sale of electronic pet machines. Chen Zuhan was in the car parked opposite Yangcheng Department Store, waiting for the department store to open.

Chen Zuhan glanced at the time. There was still about an hour before Yangcheng Department Store opened. Chen Zuhan thought that no one would come at this time, so he prepared to take a nap.

"Boss Chen!"

Chen Zuhan had just closed his eyes and dozed off for a moment when he was awakened by his assistant. Chen Zuhan looked in the direction of the department store that the assistant pointed to and was frightened.

"Why are there so many people!"
