Chapter 41 Don't use the hidden dragon

Two years ago, I had to start with Sun Yao's return to Yaoxuan.

Sun Yao returned to Yaoxuan around October, after four years of university study in the UK, and after graduation, he was put into the advertising department of the local daily newspaper to work as an advertising space sales in the recruitment section. Over the past year, it is said that Sun Yao's sales performance is very gratifying, and he has successfully won some media channels in colleges and universities for Yaoxuan in his spare time. Mr. Jiang, who was very pleased, immediately recalled Sun Yao, and Yaoxuan, a young vice president in his early twenties, took office like this.

At that time, it was the tenth year of Vice President Li Hongkun's dedication to Yaoxuan.

Perhaps it was because of the lack of training and handover, or perhaps because the information streaming media was just emerging at that time, and the speed of iterative updates was overwhelming, in short, when Sun Yao took over the client media, the business development was not satisfactory. Then he entered a vicious disease of advertising sales that we call "sending ideas to sell media", and then Sun Yao always held a bunch of unclear briefs (sometimes no briefs at all), which made the creative department passively fall into a state of temporary overtime work to "wipe the ass".

After a long time, the creative department was filled with a rebellious mood that was physically and mentally exhausted.

Unfortunately, the management of the creative department is divided under Li Hongkun.

One day, Jiang Bailing called me into her office and asked me to take out all the briefs under Sun Yao.

You know, only at the Rehearsal stage when the manuscript or big case needs to be presented, Jiang Bailing will ask me to go to her office to smoke a few cigarettes with her and talk about things outside of work.

I put the sorted out brief (which must have eliminated some that were too miserable) on Mr. Jiang's desk, and she motioned for me to sit down first, and looked at the stack of 4A paper with considerable thickness to herself.

Jiang Bailing's last words that day made me really puzzled at that time.

"Don't use the hidden dragon." She sighed and said.

Ah, it seems a bit far away, let's go back to the source of the accident - Zhonghai Real Estate.

Zhonghai Real Estate is a real estate company with strong strength in the 80s of the last century riding the wave of economic reform in the local area, in addition to commercial office buildings, luxury residential areas, in the 90s, it has been involved in the entertainment fields such as movies, theme parks, music, games and so on.

After Sun Yao returned to Yaoxuan, Mr. Jiang handed over Zhonghai to him for service and maintenance. The first big case after taking over is the national square dance activity program sponsored by Zhonghai in China, which will last for the entire summer of the second year and is an important campaign to land in the city.

In order to do a good job in this campaign, I naturally contributed to the backbone of the creative team - the copywriting work was handled by me, and the art design work was completed by two designers with excellent skills led by Xiao Hei.

It was a dark all-night period that I don't know what year it was, until one day when I noticed that Xiao Hei had grown a beard for some time, and the office exuded a subtle smell of hair oil, sweat, and foot odor (even the powerful deodorant that Sister Luo bought from Korea could not be eliminated), and the department's work was adjusted to a morning and evening shift system.

Just when I was secretly glad that there were enough people and could barely cope with the work during the special period, hidden dangers lurked in it.

One day before the accident, I was making up for my missing sleep at home, and Xiao Hei, who stayed at the workstation, received instructions from Sun Yao to urgently add a suspense poster with the city's well-known landmarks.

Later, at the proposal meeting, when the poster without a brief appeared on the projection screen, I felt like I was standing at the bottom of the mountain and saw Sisyphus - the boulder that had rolled down from the top of the mountain had hit me squarely!

The poster shows a landmark that shouldn't have been demolished in 2015 due to illegal construction and building materials.

Unexpectedly, a layout that appeared in a meeting that was still in the discussion stage turned out to be a serious and unforgivable failure for Zhonghai, who has always been tolerant. The customer representative who took the case directly announced the termination of the cooperation on the spot.

Due to the lack of brief, a long-suppressed quarrel broke out between the creative department and the customer department. After everything could not end, Jiang Bailing privately asked Li Hongkun and me to issue the result of expelling Xiao Hei.

Indignant, I immediately submitted my resignation report, and attributed the problem of illegal buildings in the picture to the list of landmark buildings I compiled, but everyone knew that the list was directly typed out by Sun Yao on QQ at that time.

Before leaving, I told Li Hongkun and Jiang Bailing that I hoped that my resignation would quell the riots within the company and keep Xiao Hei.

Within half a month, Xiao Hei asked me out for tea on a steeply cooled afternoon, and informed me of the news that he had left his job.

That day, Xiao Hei's eyes revealed an indelible resentment towards Yao Propaganda Media.
