Manhattan Reborn 1978

New York, Manhattan, Madison Avenue.

David got out of the car with four bodyguards and prepared to take a look at the advertising company.

while on the road.

David asked Giovanni where he had been yesterday.

Speaking of Giovanni's experience yesterday, it was really a typical case of an unlucky boy.

yesterday morning.

Giovanni and his wife took their daughter, who had a fever of over 39 degrees, to a doctor to treat the child.

After they hurried back home before the heavy rain, the rain poured down. .

Giovanni's home is in an old residential area in the southwest of Brooklyn.

His house is on a very low ground.

After watching the news on TV, Giovanni also thought about driving away from home with his wife and children.

But after he saw many cars broken down in the water on the street at the door, he gave up the idea and turned around and took his wife to find a way to fight the flood at home. .

He turned off the electric switch, packed up the important things at home, and then hugged his wife and children, staring at the heavy rain outside in a daze on the bed in the bedroom, waiting for the rain to stop.

As a result, it rained for nearly four hours.

The floodwaters gathered near his low-lying home, overwhelming all the efforts made by the couple and flooding all the rooms in his home. .

By this time, Giovanni began to regret why he had not left home earlier and sought shelter in the tall buildings not far away.

But it's too late to regret it now.

He had no choice but to pack up everything in the house, and together with his wife, he protected his daughter, who still had a high fever, and walked out of the house in the stagnant water.

The couple took advantage of the rain to subside and the sky not to darken. They walked carefully, slowly and with difficulty out of the two streets, arrived at a higher-lying hotel, and got a room to stay.

Giovanni settled down with his family, rested, hesitated for a while, and smoked less than half a pack of cigarettes.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, I gritted my teeth and picked up the phone and called the company to see who was there and to seek some help.

But at this time, David had already left the company with Polly to attend the party.

Ludy also left the company and went to Malkin Sr.'s house.

Giovanni had no choice but to call the New Jersey training base and ask for help.

The Jackal, who returned to the training base, learned about what happened to Giovanni today, but did not tell him about David's situation because the matter had already been resolved and there was no use telling him.

Jackal put down Giovanni's phone, put together some things, and sent a car to deliver 2000 meters of knife to Giovanni to help him tide over the difficulties.

After getting the money, Giovanni stood in front of the hotel, watching the military jeep going away, and did not go upstairs for a long time.

Nowadays.

David asked him about these things.

After Giovanni finished his story, he made a request to David.

He wanted to withdraw some salary in advance, rent an apartment for his wife and children in Manhattan, and then move here.

The house over in Brooklyn, his old home.

He was going to get rid of it cheaply and get out of there completely.

David was in the elevator with several people. Hearing Giovanni's request, he thought for a moment, smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"I will pay you back the money you borrowed from Jackal."

"You take the money and find a place for your family to stay temporarily."

"After the apartments above Wildfire are renovated, you can move here with your family and I won't charge you rent."

David looked at the four bodyguards and said with a smile, "You will all live in the apartment in that building in the future. It's enough for me to live on the top floor."

"When we live together and want to drink and party, it will be more convenient, right~haha~"

Mike and Ravis, the three bachelors, all shrugged and smiled and said no problem.

Giovanni looked at David, unsure of what to say.

His second brother, Lavis, put his arm around his shoulders and interrupted: "When the time comes, we will ask Ben Whitcott's family to come and live together, and then ask his wife to be friends with your wife, and talk about other things besides you two. Apart from having the same faces, what other aspects are similar..."

Several people in the elevator looked at Lavis's winking expression and knew that he had another bad idea.

It was rare for Mike Bai to keep up with the brain circuitry of his neurotic second brother, Lavis.

He approached David with a naughty smile: "You said that the wives of the three brothers who collided with each other sat together and discussed which of the three brothers was doing better in life. It was more satisfying..."

"This picture... is fun to think about... Hehehe~"

David rolled his eyes and gave Mike Bai an elbow: "This guy was in the elevator, where did you think he was?"

"Stop talking nonsense! You damn bastard!"

Giovanni pressed his fingers with both hands and relaxed his wrists: "Are you feeling itchy again? I'll help you relax later~"

Lavis, his third brother on the platform, also rubbed his palms, ready to teach Mike Bai, the bastard who talked nonsense, a lesson.

David and Black Mike calmly approached the elevator door. After it opened, they took a long step out, ignoring the three people messing around in the elevator.

The front desk of an advertising company.

A beautiful woman wearing glasses and with long golden brown hair saw David and the two approaching and politely stood up and asked them a few questions.

After she found out that the young boy in front of her was the legendary young boss in the company.

She led David and David into the advertising company more politely.

David looked at the decoration and layout here as he walked.

It's really like what David said the time he came before.

The entire floor is divided into two large office areas with unclear boundaries.

One side is the team area led by Peggy, and the other side is the office area of ​​Norris's staff.

After the beauty at the front desk led David to the door of Peggy's office, she shook hands with David with a smile, politely said goodbye and went back to work.

David looked back at the beauty at the front desk who was leaving, and then looked at his palms.

When this girl shook hands just now, she lightly scratched his palm with her nails.

Is this teasing the boss in front of him?

tsk~

Interesting~!

Hey~

Black Mike glanced at David who was flirted with, rolled his eyes speechlessly, and pushed David aside to tell him to do serious business quickly.

David smiled and gave Black Mike a kick, then knocked on the door and walked into Peggy's office.

Inside the office.

Peggy, who was receiving guests, saw David walking in at the door. She smiled and introduced her friends to David.

"David, this is my friend, Joan Harris, head of the Harris Advertising Studio."

"Joan, this is what I said, my boss, Mr. David Coleman."

Joan took a few steps forward generously, walked up to David and stretched out her hand to shake his hand.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Coleman, I'm Joan."

David looked up and down at the middle-aged beauty in front of him.

Joan was wearing a red dress and a pair of black high heels.

Her long red hair was tied up high on the back of her head, making her face look small, and her delicate makeup made her face appear delicate.

Obviously, time has also left some traces on her face.

However, what attracts men's attention the most is her oversized S figure curves that contrast greatly with her delicate little face. .

David didn't know until now that a woman's body size can actually explode to such an extent? ?

Joan's figure can be said to be an upgraded version of Susan's figure that is enlarged by [-] times. .

Do you want to be so exaggerated~?

David thought for a while, and in his mind could only describe Joan's proud figure as "over-fermented bread." .

Can she buy underwear that fits her size?Will she not suffer from cervical or lumbar spondylosis?

He believed that as long as this middle-aged beauty appeared on any occasion, no man would be able to ignore Joan's appearance. .

Because her plump figure is so attractive to men~

Of course, except for those men who don’t like women~!

Peggy raised her eyebrows at Joan in amusement.

David, a young boy, was also shocked by Joan's proud figure. .

Joan also saw David's scanner-like eyes, looking up and down her figure.

In response, she puffed up her chest very confidently and coughed lightly.

"Ahem~ David, can I call you that?"

When David came back to his senses, he scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled at Joan: "Sorry, I was distracted."

"That's because your figure is really... amazing!"

"It blew me away, Joan!"

"Sorry, I didn't mean to offend~ It's just that, you know, you are so attractive~ Haha~"

Joan smiled and winked at Peggy, and then said to David: "Thank you! Maybe we can sit down and talk?"

"Ok!"

David readily agreed, went to the office sofa and sat down, calmed down, adjusted his sitting posture, and put himself into working mode. .

"Peggy, Polly told me you had something to talk to us about?"

Peggy took a document from the desk and sat next to David: "Boss, this is why I want to see you."

"This year, both Pepsi and Coca-Cola are launching tenders for next year's television and newspaper print ads."

"In our company, because Norris and I have done advertising planning for these two Coke companies, we also received invitations to participate in this bidding activity."

"After discussing it with Norris, we both think that Boss David, you should have some good ideas to help our company win the advertising planning of these two Coke companies."

David looked at the document handed over by Peggy in his hand, and he felt a little proud of Peggy's rainbow fart~

He has seen not one hundred advertisements from the two Coke companies, but also dozens of different versions.

After reading the bidding document in his hand, he took another document handed over by Peggy, a document integrating the advertising slogans of the two Coke companies over the years.

In 1886, Coca-Cola was born in Atlanta, USA.

In 1898, its archrival Pepsi-Cola was born.

In 1923, Pepsi-Cola declared bankruptcy due to a misjudgment by the experimenter Pudu Lahan.

It was not until 1931 that Pepsi-Cola was acquired by the Loft Candy Company, allowing it to reappear on the market.

In 1940, Pepsi-Cola launched a national advertisement. Its advertising theme "NickelNickel" was quite popular and led to explosive growth in sales.

In order to transform its own image, PepsiCo sold advertising in the 50s and recruited many celebrities to be product spokespersons, making its sales closely match that of Coca-Cola, but in the end it did not surpass it.

By the 60s, Pepsi began to change its strategy.

With young people as its main consumer group, it launched a sugar-free light version of Pepsi-Cola in 1964.

After entering the 70s.

The advertising war between the two Coke companies has become more intense.

Pepsi launched a series of ads with the theme that young people should face challenges bravely, causing sales of rival Coca-Cola to begin to decline.

Not to be outdone, Coca-Cola launched a series of ads with the theme of "New Coke".

David looked through the information in his hand and sighed inwardly at the advertising war between the two companies that had been going on for decades.

In the last few pages, Page also compiled a comparison chart of Pepsi-Cola’s brand font style changes over the past 70 years.

Since the birth of Pepsi-Cola in 1898, Pepsi's brand font style has been constantly changing.

From the original artistic cursive text, the font shape was gradually changed.

Until 1950, Pepsi-Cola combined its brand font with red, white and blue ribbons, plus the word pepsi, as the brand logo.

David looked at the latest Pepsi-Cola logo from 1973 and was thinking about which classic version of the Coke advertisement he should come up with to participate in this bidding event.

Um. .

"Peggy, can you get the archive of all the TV and print ads for the two Cokes over the years?"

"No problem, we should have these in our data room. Wait a minute and I'll find someone to get them!"

Peggy walked out of the office quickly and asked her secretary to get the information.

Joan had been sitting there quietly, not disturbing the two of them in their work conversation.

After a few minutes.

The secretary walked into Peggy's office with a large pile of materials.

Peggy smiled and helped put them in front of David.

She patted the large pile of information: "The plans for TV commercials and the deposits for print ads are all here."

"Perhaps, if you want to read them all, one afternoon may not be enough."

David smiled and waved his hand to her: "I'm just looking at the advertising copy of the past ten years, and I want you to help find someone to buy a few more bottles of these two colas. I'll drink them and have a taste."

Peggy looked at David strangely: "You don't...have you ever drank?"

"How is that possible?~"

"When I'm thinking about the Pepsi commercial, I drink Pepsi. It gives me more inspiration~ Do you understand?"

"okok~!"

Peggy raised her hand, indicating that it was okay, walked behind her desk and took out a few bottles of Coke. .

David looked at the smiling Peggy speechlessly: "You have everything here, and you still ask me..."

"I just want to see if you think in the same way as me, boss!"

Gee!

David smacked his lips, took the Cokes, and opened them: "Are you testing the boss? Peggy!"

"I didn't, it's impossible!"

Peggy denied sincerely.

David drank Coca-Cola, ignored Peggy's words, and began to sort the information in front of him. He first looked at Coca-Cola advertising materials over the years.

David has gone into work mode.

Peggy and Joan looked at each other, then they got up and walked out of the office, and sat down at the small table in the tea room.

Peggy squinted her eyes and looked at Joan: "Do you have any thoughts about David? He is an outstanding representative who is young, rich, and honest."

Qiong drank the coffee in her hand, not paying attention to her friend's teasing.

"The same thing goes, if I could be 20 years younger... No, if I could be ten years younger, I would find a way to hold it in my hand, Peggy."

"Now...I am already old and my children are about to go to college~!"

"Time, what a bastard!"

Peggy sneered, and she leaned completely on the chair: "I just saw in David's eyes the kind of look that would appear in the eyes of some of those damn men."

"The kind that wants to invade your clothes and want to find out..."

"Okay, let's not talk about this!"

"He's too young for me, Peggy!"

Joan rolled her eyes and interrupted her friend's teasing.

"okok, if you change your mind one day, you must tell me and I will find a way to help you! Haha~"

"fxxx! Get out of here!"

"Haha~"

Peggy's laughter spread out of the small tea room and echoed in the corridor. .

Black Mike, who was waiting not far away, heard the laughter and recalled the proud figure of Joan Harris he had just seen.

Tsk~

If only they could have met ten years earlier.

Black Mike will definitely pursue this oversized beauty with an explosive figure~!

fxxx!

Time, the damn bastard!
