Chapter 714 - Feel Sorry for the Advertisers!

Chapter 714 Feel Sorry for the Advertisers!

In the morning.

After the practice, close it!

Everyone looked at the video and found that eight minutes had passed in this ten-minute CG animation.

“It’s almost over. Why did the advertisement pop up?”

“Oh, is this the end?”

“The animation is pretty good and can be called a textbook-style of video. It’s impossible to understand it if you watch it only once.”

“Where are the other nine ads?”

Everyone became confused.

However, just when everyone was still puzzled, the video was still playing.

There was no ending tune.

In the video, when the practice of Kung Fu ended, the protagonist put on his clothes and returned to the city by the same route.

But when he returned to the city, he passed by the 24-hour open supermarket again.

Right at this moment, “Dee-dee-dee-dee…” A cell phone rang all of a sudden.

The protagonist stopped in his tracks.

He took out his phone.

On the phone, there were two eye-catching words: Hua Qiang!

“It’s coming. It’s coming.”

“There is nothing artificial about the advertisement at all. Haw-haw.”

“Hua Qiang’s mobile phone is cool!”

“Huang Qiang is truly the general title sponsor and made such an awesome advertisement.”

“Terrific. This is the first time I’ve seen such a conspicuous advertisement.”

Everyone made a lot of sarcastic comments.

This was because the characters “Huang Qiang” were so big that they took up almost all of the screen space on the protagonist’s mobile phone.

The video continued to play.

“Hello?” The protagonist answered the phone.

“Hello?” A woman’s nasally voice came from the other end of the phone. It seemed as if she had caught a cold.

“On the way back.” The protagonist answered.

“My period is coming, help me buy something.” The woman said.

“Okay,” The protagonist nodded and hung up.

Then, he turned around and walked into the 24/7 supermarket.

In the supermarket, the protagonist went straight to the feminine supplies area and took a light blue bag containing sanitary napkins, on which the words “Free feel” were printed.

The viewers looking at this scene burst out laughing.

“Oh dear! How can the advertisement be planted like this?”

“Sure enough, the period is really coming. Haha.”

“The words Free feel are really big.”

“Feeling free is rather good!”

The viewers laughed boisterously.

The way the product placement was done was truly amazing.

In fact, everyone knew that the meridian animation was over, and the rest of the time would be taken up by the advertisements. But even so, they showed no signs of wanting to shut off the video. Instead, they watched it with great interest, waiting for the next advertisement.

After selecting the sanitary napkins, the protagonist went to the pharmaceutical area.

He took out a cold medicine named “Cure Cold” from the shelf.

Another advertisement.

“This plot is quite fluid.”

“That’s good. The leading actor has a high level of EQ, since he can tell that the leading actress has caught a cold.”

“I do admire this advertisement!”

“Cure Cold? This medicine is quite good.”

Two seconds flashed by.

After taking the cold medicine, the protagonist continued to walk to the other shelves.

When he passed by the beverage area, he took a bottle of mineral water.

The bottle of mineral water flashed by in a second.

“It’s Bamboo Forest.”

“Bamboo Forest’s mineral water.”

“Is this also an advertisement?”

“An advertisement lasting one second can be called an advertisement?”

“Why didn’t I see it? Is it really Bamboo Forest mineral water? I’ll replay it and look at it again.”

The moment the viewers saw it, they all burst into laughter.

The top mineral water company in the country had spent tens of millions of yuan purchasing the advertisement, but unexpectedly, it just lasted only one second. Even the brand was hard to spot if they did not look carefully at it. It was too funny.

However, the advertisement flashed so fast that many people would replay just to check it, which made a deep impression on the people about Bamboo Forest mineral water.

The video continued.

After taking the mineral water, the protagonist kept moving forward.

At this time, the camera was at his side.

With every step he took, the viewers could clearly see a product on every shelf where he passed.

On the shelf, Northern River’s Hericium biscuits came into view first, then Treasure pure milk and Aunt Liu’s sauce.

And each product appeared for exactly one second!

All the viewers were stunned by this.

“Wow, awesome. Really awesome.”

“I can tell wholeheartedly that this is the most awesome advertisement I’ve ever seen.”

“I feel sorry for the advertisers.”

“Is this also an advertisement?”

“Is it still considered as an advertisement if it just flashes by in the blink of an eye?”

“Haha, the product placement is not stiff at all and looks like it is a part of the plot.”

The audience laughed wildly.

These goods were all products from the top domestic enterprises.

Not to mention on the Internet, even on TV, those advertisements would last at least 15 seconds. But now, those top enterprises fought so hard to purchase a slot for their advertisements from Fang Qiu, and it appeared for only one second?

This way of advertising was really for advertising.

As the audience discussed heatedly,

The video continued.

After walking by three products, one after another, the protagonist walked to the supermarket counter to check out his items.

After handing the items to the cashier, he turned his head and looked out of the door, only to find an air conditioner printed with two words “Qingxin”!

“Qingxin air conditioner’s ad is also being shown.”

“Qingxin air conditioner gives you a fresher life!”

“No trace of advertising placement at all.”

“The location of this air conditioner is very good.”

“I didn’t expect that the last advertisement would appear like this. Haha.”

Everyone guffawed.

In the video, the protagonist finished paying the bill, then took out his mobile phone and made a call. He said, “I’ve bought everything and will come back right now.”

After that, he strode out of the supermarket and disappeared in the light of the morning sun.

There were clamors of comments among the viewers.

“Hua Qiang again!”

“Haha, Hua Qiang’s mobile phone is really awesome.”

“Hua Qiang’s mobile phone, the fighter jet among the mobile phones!”

The video ended.

After watching the whole video, the audience was amazed by the appearance of the meridians and the number of acupuncture points, and also laughed merrily.

The comment areas of the CG meridians on the three major video websites were crammed with various comments in just 10 minutes.

Feel sorry for the advertisers!

The words, like a catchphrase, appeared in the comment area under the video and last dozens of pages in a neat sequence.

“This is not a product placement at all. Fang Qiu just advertised directly for you!”

“Haha, I am going to die of laughter.”

“The funniest thing is that the scene of this advertisement is set in the supermarket. Whose idea is this? So ingenious!”

“Can I say Fang Qiu is so lazy that he dares to treat the advertisers in this way?”

When the video ended, everyone logged in to Weibo.

A few minutes later, a new topic appeared on Weibo: Feel Sorry for the Advertisers. Not long after this topic appeared, it rapidly entered Weibo’s trending topic list.

Besides this, another topic skyrocketed to the first place of the list more rapidly.

This topic was “Meridian”!

From these two topics, it was clearly seen how influential Fang Qiu’s meridian CG video was this time, as there were 2 trending topics about it just after the video had been online for less than half an hour.

If the heated discussion continued, the topics about the meridian CG video would make it to the top three on the list of Weibo’s topics.

Some advertisers decided to ride along with this wave of success.

“Thank you, Mr. Fang Qiu.” This post appeared simultaneously on the official Weibo of Bamboo Forest Spring, Treasure Milk, Aunt Liu’s Sauce and Northern River’s Hericium biscuits.

They also added the tag “Feel Sorry for the Advertisers”.

When the netizens saw it, they couldn’t stop laughing.

“Haha, why do their thank-yous look a little strange?”

“They don’t mean it. Though they are supposedly expressing their thanks, it looks as if they want to kill Fang Qiu instead, don’t they?”

“Fang Qiu specially had these advertisements shot for you. You should thank him, haha.”

“Rich people, please give me your membership numbers.”

“Me too. Could any rich man give his membership number?”

Following these four enterprises, the other companies’ official Weibo also posted new Weibo posts to express their gratitude to Fang Qiu and also added the tag “Feel Sorry for the Advertisers”.

The Feeling Free sanitary napkins’ official Weibo was the first to be packed with comments.

“This advertisement is really good.”

“Compared with the other companies’ advertisements, your company’s advertisement is the best.”

“Could it be that you’ve given Fang Qiu some advantages? Your advertisement is the best out of the ten.”

“What kind of the advertisement is that? Is there any talent who has the resource of the meridian CG video, or willing to share the member’s number? Please let me have a look.”

“Talents, give me a chance. Whoever gives me the membership number, I will follow him in the future!”

The official Weibo of the other countries were also filled with comments.

All kinds of heated discussions carried on unceasingly.

Among them, what drew the most attention from the netizens was the self-reliant enterprise–Huang Qiang’s mobile phone.

However, it was different from the other companies.

The official Weibo of Hua Qiang’s mobile phone did not add the tag “Feel Sorry for the Advertisers”. Instead, it posted a very formal Weibo of appreciation and reposted the playing address of the meridian CG video on the three major video websites.

The reaction immediately aroused the ridicule of all the netizens.

“Haha, why do I feel that the post is contrary to your thoughts?”

“We don’t feel sorry for you, but for the mobile phone in the video. The words ‘Hua Qing’ are too big. In order to highlight it, the mobile phone has a really ugly design!”

“Hua Qiang’s mobile phone, the one with the big characters in the mobile phones!”

“What big character mobile phone? It’s obviously a mobile phone for the elderly. A normal mobile phone does not have such big characters. Haha.”

“Hua Qiang, don’t cry. Stand up!”

Instantly, the Internet was full of hot topics about the meridian CG video.

There were also a large number of people looking for membership numbers, causing excitement and jollification in Weibo, major Tiebas, forums and theme websites. It was as if it was the New Year in the Internet world.

At the same time, after the meridian CG video was released formally, the meridians in it were also the subject of a huge discussion.

Especially those in the Chinese medicine circle. They had always recognized the existence of meridians and used the characteristics of meridians to cure diseases and save lives, but they had never seen what meridians looked like.

And now, through the meridian CG video, they finally saw the details of meridians and thus had a deeper understanding of traditional Chinese medicine.

On the Wulin online forum. someone posted, “go and see the meridian video released by Fang Qiu. I have found that this video seems to be helpful for cultivation!”

This sentence made those who originally didn’t pay attention to Wulin watch it again!

When they saw the video, they found that this video was truly instrumental for making a breakthrough in each level of Martial Superior.

This made the Wulin people rather surprised.

So they told more and more people to watch and learn.
