Puxi, Tengzhong Communication Company.
Chen Cheng sat in the reception room, looking in the direction of Lujiazui in Pudong, his brows slightly raised.
He knew that Wen Shulin was never a woman lacking material things, and to touch her heart, he could not simply use branded goods and jewelry.
The 200-yard veil tugged at her heartstrings, and tonight, lighting up the Citibank Building was Chen Cheng’s final step to penetrate deep into her heart.
As the largest outdoor LED screen in the city, spanning 6000 square meters of advertising space, it serves as a calling card for the Bund, Pujiang Plate and Lujiazui.
Many international brands such as LV, Dior, Coca Cola, Volkswagen, and even before the premiere of "Transformers 4", have landed on this giant screen.
Today, the largest surprise and nostalgia that Chen Cheng left at the bank of Huangpu River for Wen Shulin was going to be displayed on this giant screen.
Soon after, the door to the reception room opened.
A man in a suit walked in, "Hello, Mr. Chen."
Chen Cheng stood up to shake hands, "Hello, Manager Cai."
After both were seated, Chen Cheng straightforwardly expressed his request:
"Manager Cai, I want to light up the Citibank Building across the river at exactly 9 p.m. tonight."
He spoke casually, "I know your advertising slots are fully booked, but I’d like to cut in line, if you could help me out."
Manager Cai smiled, "Mr. Chen, we generally do not accept such requests for the benefit of our already contracted partners."
"I’m not for profit, nor is it an advertisement," Chen Cheng replied.
Manager Cai’s brows furrowed slightly, "Not for profit? Then what is it?"
"I’m leaving the city tomorrow. I want to send a promise to my friend before I go," Chen Cheng said mildly.
Manager Cai, with a smile, "Mr. Chen, are you going to confess your love?"
Chen Cheng stopped laughing, looking determinedly at Manager Cai, "Sort of, but it’s not just a confession. It’s an important promise to her."
Manager Cai took a moment, seemingly pondering something, then slowly said,
"Mr. Chen, your sentiment truly is moving, but this disrupts our original schedule and causes quite some trouble."
Chen Cheng leaned forward slightly, "Manager Cai, I understand your difficulties, but this opportunity is too important for me."
Manager Cai sighed, "Mr. Chen, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, it’s really..."
At that moment, Chen Cheng interjected, "Manager Cai, what do you think about this?"
Chen Cheng pointed across the river, "Just to display my message on that big screen at 9 tonight, name your price."
Manager Cai was deep in thought; the office quietened, only the ticking of the wall clock clearly audible.
After a while, he said, "Mr. Chen, our standard for ad placement is a 15-second rotation, appearing 60 times from 6 PM to 11 PM."
Chen Cheng said, "So that’s 900 seconds?"
Manager Cai nodded, "The cost is 300,000 for a week."
Chen Cheng, smiling, said, "What about just for tonight?"
"This is where the second scenario I was about to mention comes in."
Manager Cai answered, "For a specific time spot block, it’s 350,000 for one hour."
Chen Cheng, looking at the furrowed brow opposite him, relaxed his own.
"Alright, issue the invoice," he said.
Manager Cai blinked, "Mr. Chen, it’s 350,000 for one hour. Not 3..."
Chen Cheng nodded, "I know, no problem, I’ll pay immediately."
Manager Cai couldn’t help but be surprised by Chen Cheng’s decisiveness, he asked, "What content do you want to display on the screen? We need to review it."
Chen Cheng’s eyes twinkled as he wrote on the review form passed by Manager Cai.
Manager Cai looked at it, "No signature?"
Chen Cheng smiled, "She’ll understand."
Bao Lijia, river view room.
The pure white big bed was covered with bright red rose petals, and there was an ice bucket with a bottle of pink Dom Perignon champagne on the welcome trolley next to it.
Chen Cheng meticulously wiped the champagne glasses he had selected, then walked to the terrace to ensure there was no issue with the view, and quietly waited for Wen Shulin to arrive.
Chen Cheng strode over and gentlemanly opened the door.
Wen Shulin appeared in a deep V mermaid dress, quite eye-catching.
The deep V neckline perfectly showcased her alluring collarbone and slender neck, her skin fair and glowing.
On her feet, strappy silver high heels beautifully arched her feet, each step a rhythm of grace.
Her long hair rested on her left shoulder revealing a diamond earring on her right ear, her lips slightly upturned, almost smiling, like a blooming exquisite flower.
"Shulin, you look absolutely beautiful tonight."
Wen Shulin smiled lightly, walking into the room, "Why are we renting a room, didn’t we say..."
When she saw the rose petals on the bed and the champagne on the trolley, a look of surprise appeared on her face.
"Is all this for me?" Wen Shulin asked.
"Of course, everything here is for you."
Wen Shulin chuckled, "Is my palace making you uncomfortable?"
"Although the palace is nice, what I have here is a unique romance to offer you."
Wen Shulin asked with a laugh, "Is it these petals and champagne?"
She leaned forward, "I’m not a little girl, you know~"
"There’s also a gift!"
Chen Cheng lay down on the big bed, "Right here."
"Ha ha ha." Wen Shulin giggled, "You always know how to amuse me."
Chen Cheng sat up and patted the edge of the bed; Wen Shulin naturally sat down.
"I’m leaving tomorrow, so tonight, I want to give you something special," he said.
