The next day.
The eldest sister, Chen Nan, and her family, along with her two younger sisters, arrived early in the morning.
Xiao Xinyi was the busiest person this morning. She had to urge her family to come home quickly while also cooking.
She only felt satisfied when there was a table full of food, and finally she stopped eating.
Since it's a family dinner, there are no rules; just relax and be casual with your family.
Chen Xuelin specially brought back two bottles of Feitian Moutai liquor, just so he could have a drink with his son and son-in-law at noon.
But Xiao Xinyi was unhappy. Chen Dong came home drunk last night, and he wants to drink again at noon today?
"Drinking alcohol damages the liver. Why would a family drink alcohol when eating together? Besides, our son is always out socializing. Doesn't he drink enough already? As his father, you should think about his health!"
"It's a rare treat for the whole family to get together, we're all so happy! So it's okay to drink a little, right?"
"What do you mean it's okay? You're not allowed to drink it."
Xiao Xinyi and Chen Xuelin even argued about this matter during dinner.
As one of only three men present, Lin Zhiyuan didn't even need Chen Nan beside him to give him a look; he quickly smoothed things over.
"Mom and Dad, let's enjoy this family reunion dinner together and not argue about these little things! We're happy today, and it's perfectly understandable that Dad wants to have a couple of drinks. How about I drink with you today?"
As he said this, Lin Zhiyuan glanced at Chen Dong, and only relaxed after seeing him nod.
In truth, Lin Zhiyuan was the one who had the most difficult time.
Chen Dong smiled and said, "Dad, let my brother-in-law keep you company at noon. If you still want to drink tonight, the two of us can have another good drink."
Chen Xuelin naturally wouldn't say anything. Xiao Xinyi usually kept a close eye on him, so there weren't many opportunities for him to drink freely.
Soon, the food was served.
Although he had only said he wanted to have a couple of drinks, Chen Xuelin got carried away and inevitably drank too much.
After the meal.
Chen Xuelin and Lin Zhiyuan returned to their rooms to rest.
Chen Dong, on the other hand, watched TV with his mother, eldest sister, and two younger sisters.
While he said he was watching TV, Chen Dong actually enjoyed the opportunity to spend time alone with his family more.
Just like now—
His two younger sisters were glued to the television. He chatted with his older sister and mother, mostly as a listener, listening to them talk about their lives recently, occasionally offering a word or two in response.
Even so, Chen Dong felt very warm and cozy.
Time passed in this leisurely state.
However, just as Chen Nan was talking about a colleague in the office, an advertisement for Longteng VCD suddenly appeared on the TV screen.
Even though the four of them didn't understand business, they were still familiar with Chen Dong's company.
"Dongzi, this VCD player is your business, right? It even got featured on CCTV?"
"Really? Dongzi, I heard from your brother-in-law that your VCD player isn't sold yet, right? And this brand isn't in the stores right now."
"Is this advertisement particularly expensive, considering it airs on CCTV?"
The two women stared intently at Chen Dong, their curiosity driving them to want to hear his answer.
However, Chen Dong was unwilling to discuss business matters at home, and simply mentioned some things about VCD advertising.
Even so, the 20 million yuan advertising fee still left the two of them speechless.
Goodness, so much money has been spent on advertising. What if the VCDs don't sell well later?
The idea had barely formed in their minds when the two of them quickly dismissed it.
Chen Dong and his team understood that if they weren't confident, how could they have invested so much money all at once?
Even so.
20 million!
The two were still worried about whether they could break even.
After all, this is 20 million, not 2,000.
"How effective was the advertisement? Did it get many sales?"
"Dongzi, how much do your Dragon VCDs cost? Can you recoup the advertising costs?"
"Mom, eldest sister, don't worry about me. Since I dare to spend so much money on advertising, I'm sure I can make the money back."
Upon hearing this, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
That's definitely the truth!
......
On the other side.
As advertisements for Longteng VCD were played repeatedly on CCTV channels, viewers began to become familiar with Longteng VCD.
Meanwhile, Wang An began actively distributing the products on the market, and the VCDs that had been stockpiled but not yet shipped suddenly flooded the market like a tidal wave.
This caused quite a stir in the electronics industry.
Within a few days, the advertisements made Longteng VCDs familiar to viewers, and some viewers reacted quickly and rushed to the mall to check them out.
It would have been better if we hadn't looked; once we did, we were immediately stunned.
What?
Dragon's VCD player is only selling for 1888? Are you kidding me?
It's worth noting that the most attention-grabbing VCDs on the market right now are Sony and Gamer VCDs. Even though these two companies are now using discount and promotional tactics to grab market share, their prices are still about twice that of Dragon VCDs.
Is it really true that you can buy a VCD for only 1888?
It's unbelievable no matter how you look at it.
"Madam, I've already explained a lot to you. Our Dragon VCD player offers exceptional value for money and is the perfect choice for you."
When the sales assistant in the mall was explaining the Dragon VCD, she was surrounded by many customers who wanted to buy it.
Dragon VCD players are cheap, and customers feel like they're getting them for free.
The advertisements that appear on CCTV still carry considerable weight in this era.
