Chapter 692: Chapter 15: Broadcast of the Promotional Video

It’s rare to have warmth and softness in his arms, so Xie Rongzhao didn’t insist on going to the company early in the morning.

Lately, he hasn’t been prospering in the business world, experiencing quite a few setbacks. The company’s financial statements keep declining, a stark contrast to when the Xie Family was still around!

Thinking about work now, he feels a sense of inexplicable resistance and irritation.

After all, from childhood to adulthood, when has he ever been wronged?

Chen Ningbai put on a silky satin nightdress, the short hem accentuating her alluring curves.

Xie Rongzhao’s eyes lingered on her for a moment before he casually pulled her back into his arms.

He really isn’t a stick-in-the-mud kind of person. His own woman, after all, shouldn’t have to appear in public if it can be helped. But at home, the less she wears, the better.

A 300-square-meter villa is really a small dwelling for him, but fortunately, with an elevator and a car, it’s far more comfortable than before.

Moreover, he is now the master of the house... That feeling is enough to make up for the lack of material possessions.

The two sat on the sofa, and it took some time for the assistant to bring the meal over—after all, the call from the company was last-minute.

As for ordering takeout?

Are you kidding? Without the assistant keeping an eye on it, how can you know if the meal is prepared with care?

The two stuck together and casually turned on the TV—even in this new world, where they had already adapted, TV programs still held some charm.

A huge TV screen lit up in front of them. As the website’s opening page appeared, a weathered face directly caught their eyes.

—It was a man in his 40s, with dark skin and slightly sunken cheeks, making him appear a bit thin and bony.

He stood on an abandoned construction site, wearing a white vest. From his left shoulder down, it was all silver-grey mechanical limbs.

At this moment, he awkwardly tugged at the somewhat yellowed and worn hem of his clothes toward the camera.

The camera clearly captured those slightly thick metal fingers, leaving faint marks on the fabric—just like a real hand would.

And that honest, straightforward, and by no means handsome middle-aged man gave a shy smile before introducing himself:

"I... my name is Liu Changgui. I’m from Ningzhou, and when I was 32, my arm was amputated while working on a construction site."

"With an amputation, no employer wanted me, so I’ve been doing some farming at home. But with two kids who are doing well in school at home, I had to find a way to support their education, which was really tough..."

This was supposed to be a promotion, but it didn’t feel like one at all.

Calling it an advertisement was even less accurate.

It was more like a small snippet of a documentary.

"... With one hand, I couldn’t find work outside. But this year, the village chief said someone like me could get a mechanical hand fitted for free, functioning just like a real one... It’s a provision from the government, free for those who qualify!"

This statement was noticeably raised in volume.

"After getting it fitted, construction sites are now willing to hire me, saying my hand is strong, energetic, and steady."

"I can now earn 400 yuan a day working!"

Even with certain pauses and long shots at the beginning, the entire narrative took only 32 seconds.

Though it spent at least 5 seconds focusing on the connection lines of the mechanical limbs, rural service points, and QR codes.

Chen Ningbai and Xie Rongzhao both looked down on this kind of down-to-earth person.

But as they watched this interview on the large screen, unpolished and straightforward, and caught sight of the bold "National Charity" at the video’s end, a gravity surfaced in their expressions. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Xie Rongzhao realized that unless he found the researchers of Hanqi Intelligence, he would never surpass them!

Clearly, smart home and medical devices are the hottest projects, yet his company only produces some trash that inexplicably activates at midnight!

Those deeply rooted family enterprises are understandable, but as for this rising Hanqi, there’s no reason why he can’t take it down!

Meanwhile, Chen Ningbai thought: Although historically, it’s always been those in power whose words carry more weight, she has spent some time in the entertainment industry and knows the public’s perception of "National Charity."

Even after experiencing numerous deceptions and disappointments, if those two words appear, people naturally become more patient and supportive.

—This, after all, is a strange world, a strange country.

So even though the person in the camera was so ordinary and ugly, she instantly understood the popularity and heat this charity advertisement could generate, along with the various invisible advantages it could bring.
