Age of Legends

Chapter 31 Mobilizing the Retired Masses

It was quite lively all of a sudden.

When these retired old men and women heard about this good thing, their eyes widened. Some hesitated and asked, "Then, can my granddaughter come?"

"My grandson has also been playing the trumpet since he was a child. Can he perform?"

It turned out that when those who had children at home heard that they could be on TV, their eyes widened and they all started to speak.

"I have a baby at home too..."

"So what can your kid do?"

"I don't know anything..."

"Oh, we missed it!" These old men and women looked very regretful.

This was the last glorious afterglow of the TV station. Nowadays, if you can be in the newspaper, you are a celebrity. If you can be on TV, what is the difference between you and a star?
"Listen to me, listen to me!" Zhang Chen waved his hand again to stop their discussion. It was like a vegetable market where they hadn't even started distributing flyers!
After all, he was the boss who paid them. Although he was very young, everyone was used to it. Who asked Zhang Chen to promote that they were a youth promotion platform? It was common for these platforms to have many young people in the center, and they paid directly. There must be a big organization behind them!

"Everyone has a chance. It doesn't matter if you don't have any talent. There will be interest groups when the time comes. You can choose the talent you want to show. There will be special teachers to train you. Let your grandson sign up for recitation and get some training in advance."

“Can I go on TV even after the training?”

"of course can."

"Oh, okay, I want my child to be on TV too!"

"Okay, that's settled! Today you will receive ten dollars from me, a stack of flyers, a pen, and a notebook each. Remember, keep the notebook safe, as it will be used as a voucher for your payment later. Work today, and come here to receive payment after six o'clock tomorrow! Okay, let's go!"

The group dispersed.

Wang Shuowei stood there in a daze, "What should we do next?"

"Go home!" Zhang Chen said.

"You're going home now? What if these guys take the money but don't do the running?"

"No, they still want tomorrow's errand fee. Besides, these people are everywhere. There are only two of us, so we can't really supervise every school. Save limited energy. Didn't I give them a list of signatures? They get paid based on that. 50 cents per signature. What can they do to earn this money?"

"Then he can sign it himself, or ask someone else to sign it!" said Wang Shuowei.

"Sure. If he can get a hundred different signatures, I'll consider him impressive. Even if he asks his neighbors, he should explain to them why they want to sign. This is similar to what we want to achieve. Didn't you just see that they themselves want to squeeze their grandchildren in? Besides, the final right of interpretation is mine. The money hasn't been paid yet. If cheating in signing is discovered, we'll talk about it then."

"Then are we really going home?" Wang Shuowei felt that today's experience was particularly fresh and exciting.

"Go back to your house and continue surfing the Internet."

The two returned to Wang Shuowei's house, and Zhang Chen opened the Rongcheng local network.

What is the keyword for the Internet in the millennium?
Portals, chat rooms, forums.

At that time, portal websites emerged, and local forum networks featuring each city were also set up, mainly to share local characteristics, yellow pages, news and various information.

Forums are an advanced form of chat rooms, where people from all over the world gather together to share knowledge, intelligence and information. Local forums have a strong regional timeliness and a lot of traffic.

Of course, oicq is now slowly being shortlisted, and the chat software is about to become the C-position star.

When Zhang Chen finished making the poster, he also posted a copy on the local forum.

At this time, the local forum had no shortage of traffic, but lacked high-quality topic guidance. Seeing such a "well-made" poster, the moderator quickly added it to the featured list and replied to Zhang Chen who sent a private message asking for it: "Thank you friends from Rongcheng TV station for posting this. I am honored. The post has been added to the featured list and pinned. I hope the program goes well. I wonder when this Spring Festival special program will be broadcast so that I can notify my family to watch it. Please let me know!"

Zhang Chen's private message asking for essence simply starts by explaining that he is a TV station staff member, and that there is a TV program that he hopes the local network section will cooperate in promoting. The post link is ＊＊＊, and finally he thanks the moderator and rolls on the ground in the snow to ask for essence.

The moderator nicknamed "知书达理" is a doctor in a Class-A hospital. His real name is Wang Hong. He usually treats patients. When he is free at noon or when he gets home, he uses his work computer to log into the local network backend to manage the layout.

At this time, everyone on the Internet is polite and courteous. When adding strangers as friends through chat software, they still use the traditional pen pal communication format. They are cautious and have high expectations.

Hello. Hello. Where are you from? Oh, I'm from such and such. What are the good attractions and delicious food in your place? People from all over the world basically start chatting like this.

Wang Hong had never seen such a pursuit of essence. He thought that the comrades of this TV station were also wonderful people. Then he looked at the content and was surprised! Our Rongcheng local TV station is also going to create a little star? Great, this is a good thing, we must support it greatly!

So he logged in during his lunch break to mark this post as a featured post and pin it to the top. Not only that, he also contacted moderators he knew to help repost it, so that they could jointly promote this great thing in their respective forums.

When Zhang Chen logged in in the afternoon, he saw that the post had been posted on several major sections of the local website, including food, drink, entertainment, chatting, poetry, sports and leisure.

The chat below was also quite lively.

"Huo! Future star! Rongcheng TV is going to make it big this time!"

"That's great. My child has been practicing dance at the Children's Palace since he was young. This time he can be on TV, a special Spring Festival program. I will sign up for it as soon as I get back!"

"My family is learning Go at the Children's Palace. Can they sign up? Can the TV station broadcast the Go game?"

Wang Hong was watching all this excitement and felt more and more excited. He thought to himself, doesn't he have a niece who is also a singer and dancer? So he quickly called to inform her about this. Sure enough, her family was very excited to hear about this and asked Wang Hong for the specific information on the post and were waiting to sign up in a few days.

Wang Hong contacted the TV station's press release staff and asked about the specific start time of the program, because the post contained comprehensive information, but the start time was still uncertain.

"The specific time is still being discussed and coordinated within the station. It will be announced at the time of registration. I will contact you, Mr. Moderator, at that time. Please spread the word!" Zhang Chen replied in a private message.

"Okay, okay, it's my honor! It's my honor!"

There is an old saying that journalists are the uncrowned kings, and TV stations have a special pass. These days, just saying you want to be on TV will immediately generate enthusiasm.

After all, it is such an honor to be promoted on TV.

Even being able to help out and do some insignificant work is a pride.

Work hard at your career and pursue updates with great enthusiasm.

Go write some code.
