I was reborn without dreams

Chapter 70 is terrifyingly sinister.
While recording the latest episode of "Top Scholar Talk," Zhang Dangyang took a break to tell Zhang Da'an some good news.

"Boss, Deng Xiaoling has suffered a great loss. These past two days, news has been circulating in the station that Beijing TV came over for an exchange, saying that Deng Xiaoling has ruined several of her superiors."

"It's nothing, just a beggar. Don't take it to heart."

"But she seemed unconvinced and still wanted to turn the tables."

"Make a comeback? Ha."

Zhang Da'an sneered. He was too lazy to explain to Zhang Dangyang, but he wanted to make sure the guy used his brain and wouldn't get confused later. So he said, "Do you know I knew a bitch like Deng Xiaoling would try to scam me?"

"what?"

"However, I don't know who this person is. They might be from the province or from outside the province. I just didn't expect it to be someone from a unit like Beijing TV. The world is truly full of wonders. But to me, it's all the same. Whoever comes, I'll just be a chicken. A prop to kill the chicken to scare the monkey."

"..."

Upon hearing Zhang Da'an's words, Zhang Dangyang's heart inexplicably leaped into his throat, and he couldn't help but feel nervous.

He knew Zhang Da'an was a top scorer in both academics and martial arts in the college entrance examination, so he must be a very clever person, but this was so cunning... This guy was just a real schemer.

However, Zhang Da'an's treachery still exceeded Zhang Dangyang's imagination.

"Do you even know what the biggest pitfall that bitch Deng Xiaoling fell into was?"

"What kind of pitfall?"

"On the 6th and 7th, the Journalists Association actually held a 'Symposium on Strengthening and Improving Ideological and Political Work and Publicity Reporting' in Beijing."

"..."

"If you pay attention to the news every day, you'll remember the news on the 7th about the seminar held by the Journalists Association. The report included this description: 'In accordance with the new situation and new requirements, we will further improve the publicity and reporting of ideological and political work, carefully organize, plan, and arrange, adapting to local conditions, the times, and the newspaper, striving to enhance the timeliness, relevance, and effectiveness of publicity and reporting…'"

The rhythmic cadence, just like reciting a text, left Zhang Dangyang speechless.

no……

And this thing?
This was reported in the news?
Everyone's surname is Zhang, how come you can repeat it?

And so... expressive and moving?
Having spent a long time in Jiangning, Zhang Dangyang now has four words to say: "Completely panicked."

"I won't explain what the new situation and new requirements are. But you should understand 'adapting to local conditions and adapting to the times,' right?"

"Mmmmmmm..."

The chicks nodded incessantly, like pecking at rice.

Zhang Da'an was very satisfied with his performance and said with a smile, "What is a sense of the times? What is relevance? What is effectiveness? Think about it, after this seminar, that bitch Deng Xiaoling came to Jiangkou Province to stage such an extremely sensitive and troublesome surprise interview, especially since we had her under our control and she had to bite the bullet and conduct a real interview. What is she up to? If she doesn't die, who will? If she doesn't suffer a bloody defeat, plenty of others will suffer for her."

As he spoke, Zhang Da'an crossed his legs and sipped white tea, looking just like a villain in a movie who had just succeeded in his evil scheme. "I'm only eighteen years old, the rising sun at seven or eight in the morning, and one of the few young entrepreneurs in the countryside. I am a representative of the healthy development of the market economy. If you want to launch a surprise attack on me, wait until I'm thirty-eight, forty-eight, or fifty-eight, but not when I'm eighteen."

"..." That's fucking insidious.

Zhang Dangyang, who hadn't understood anything before, now realized that Deng Xiaoling from Beijing TV hadn't just stepped into a pit, she had clearly stepped on a landmine.

It's a small matter if you try to scam Zhang Da'an, but it's a big deal if you slap the face of the person above you.

Now it's clear why Shazhou City dared to directly confront them, even having its "Beijing Liaison Office" beat the drum to appeal to the emperor, and even resorting to the farce of filing a lawsuit against the emperor.

It's a sure win.

I'm such an idiot!
Zhang Dangyang wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was indeed not suited to dealing with shrewd people. His father was absolutely right. He shouldn't think about anything else and should just stick with Zhang Zhengdong and Zhang Da'an, uncle and nephew.

If one can be discerning and clear-headed, and also be content with a modest life, that would be quite good.

Zhang Dangyang almost kowtowed to Zhang Da'an at this moment. If he was like this at eighteen, what would he be like at twenty-eight?
Others are like dogs that bite without barking, but Chairman Zhang Da'an, who supported me, is a man-eating tiger that doesn't make a sound.

He couldn't predict whether Deng Xiaoling could make a comeback, but even if that woman who staged accidents for money made a comeback, she would probably have to make another one.

Package.

"You did well in the last episode, but you weren't quite relaxed enough. The persona we've created for you is that of an approachable, modern host—someone who's up-to-date, kind, and energetic. Don't try too hard to please me; it'll just make you seem like a sycophant. Be confident, show that you have principles, ideals, and convictions. Keep your eyes firm, understand?"

"I understand, I understand, but boss, I really am your lackey, right? It's a bit difficult for me to pretend it's not true."

"Very good, now that you can say such shameless things, you're starting to get the hang of it. Keep it up."

"Please rest assured, boss!"

I want to improve so much.

Zhang Da'an had previously promised to secure a batch of business deals for Zhang Dangyang, and sure enough, they came true. When Mazhou City was organizing the "Me and the World Trade Organization" event, they invited Zhang Dangyang to host it.

The hard-earned fee is not much, only a few thousand yuan, but the travel expenses, accommodation fees, and other miscellaneous costs add up to a considerable sum.

Most importantly, he secured a business deal with the most upscale hotel in Mazhou City. This year, during the National Day holiday, the "richest man" in a township was getting married and invited him to officiate the wedding. The red envelope was 18,888 yuan, and the hotel and transportation were all covered.

This demonstrates the unwavering local influence of the "Top Scholar's Talk" host.

This was just the beginning. In order to create a persona for Zhang Dangyang, Zhang Da'an established a "Dangyang Studio" under "Zhang An Media" and would put the newly planned "Dangyang Says" program on the provincial TV station.

It was also a talk show, and they used three tactics in their public relations efforts with the provincial TV station. The first, of course, was to provide financial support, with advertising and sponsorship fees totaling 3.8 million yuan. The second was for the Shazhou City publicity department to pull strings and help Zhang Da'an with this, with the publicity departments of Jianggao City and Mazhou City also joining in. The third was the Jiangning City Education Bureau, with "Zhang An Education" promising not to conduct middle and high school entrance examination retake programs in the provincial capital for the next three years.

With a three-pronged approach, the results are outstanding. The copywriting for "Dangyang Says" has already begun to accumulate. After the summer talk show "Top Scholar Says" ends, "Dangyang Says" will take over and continuously create topics and output opinions on hot issues.

The main purpose of "Dangyang Says" is to advertise "Zhang An Health". By August, various "Zhang An Health" gummies and vitamin C candies will start to be distributed.

Currently, there are various advertisements for "Little Champion QQ Candy", "Little Champion Vitamin C Candy" and "Little Champion Smart Candy". The provincial TV station will broadcast a fun advertisement with a simple tagline: Little Champion QQ Candy, let's Q~~ together.
