Chapter 632 CCTV News! (3rd Update!)
After shooting the video and uploading it to the Internet using the communication network on the cargo ship, the leader led the team to start checking the cargo ship.
Before deciding to officially become pirates, in order to better obtain the ransom, they spent a huge amount of money to find hackers on the Internet to buy some cargo information.
There is a lot of useful information in these materials.
Including which goods are urgently needed and cannot be replaced, so they can ask for a high price, and which goods can be replaced, but are of low value, so they can only ask for a low price.
Now, you only need to get the cargo list of the cargo ship to find out the valuable things, and then propose the fees in a targeted manner.
You don’t need to ask for too much, just a steady stream of water.
However, the sky does not follow people’s wishes. In this area of the Red Sea, in addition to this group of pirates who suddenly appeared, there is also a group of pirates who have been around for a long time, or a group.
Just as they were busy checking the cargo list, a hurried shout came from the walkie-talkie. Reminded by the shout, the leader also saw the target with a telescope.
More than a dozen small boats.
More than a dozen small boats full of pirates.
The direction they came from was Somalia.
Seeing these ships, the leader was overwhelmed. Before officially becoming pirates, they had considered how to communicate with Somali pirates if they encountered them.
But the previous operations were smooth and they did not encounter Somali pirates.
As a result, today was not a good day. As soon as they boarded the ship, these guys came.
Moreover, the power of the cargo ship under their feet had been turned off. It was impossible to restart the power again and escape from the pursuit of these pirates.
After rubbing his head hard, he sighed helplessly, pulled the bolt of the AK, loaded the bullet, and then pointed at the clothes on his body to the other teammates: "We are American soldiers now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a teammate next to him pointed at the AK in his hand, and there was only doubt in his eyes:
"But captain, American soldiers will not use such a bad AK."
Being pointed out, the captain stood there awkwardly, his face turned pale, suppressed the anger in his heart, and shouted coldly to the team member who was speaking: "If I say it is, it is!"
"We are regular American soldiers, and we are performing escort missions."
"I will take the others to deal with the pirates, you stay here and let the shipowners behind them pay."
"If they don't pay, we will hand the people over to the Somali pirates, and we will take the goods and leave."
Leaving this sentence, leaving a few more people, the team leader strode out of the bridge, met with other team members, and then changed the formation at the fastest speed, becoming an elite "American soldier".
Seeing these people by the lights on the ship, Captain Ed's bloodless face flushed red in an instant.
These bastards are definitely elite soldiers!
And they are soldiers who have undergone rigorous training, have been on the battlefield, seen blood, and killed people.
Maybe, they are really a few damn American retired veterans who have no money, so they choose to be pirates.
Thinking of this possibility, he felt a sense of fear for no reason.
Because such people have a bottom line, but not many.
If they get the money, everything will be happy, but if they don't get the money, they are likely to be crazy.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but take the initiative.
At the same time, on the other side, the people brought by the leader also collided with the pirates from Somalia.
The container ship is very high, and it is not easy to get on board.
But the black uncles who came by ship are strong and strong. They threw the rope ladder onto the deck in the surging waves, fixed it, and began to climb forcibly.
Some people climbed along the rope, and some stood in the boat, holding guns and on guard.
Cargo ships running on the sea will hire bodyguards in some unsafe places, but these bodyguards will not fight desperately.
They will only use guns to drive away and warn pirates when they appear.
If the other party wants to board the ship by force, they will also fight back appropriately, but it will not be fatal.
Because they are all out there, this is a society of human relations.
If a few pirates are killed today, then next time, other ships of the same shipowner may suffer a devastating blow.
Looking at the black people who were happily climbing the rope ladder, the leader of the Yemeni team came up with a genius idea.
He gently pressed the intercom and called the person at the command desk:
"Tell the captain that if they don't pay, I will kill all the pirates from Somalia now."
"If these dozens of people die, these pirates will definitely find ways to retaliate with all their strength."
"The respected shipowner behind them probably doesn't want his ship to be targeted by pirates at sea, right?"
After saying this genius idea, perhaps to verify it, he directly stuck his head out from the deck and fired a volley at the small boat below at the fastest speed.
The gunshot rang out, and then fell again.
Amid the sound of the waves, a few shrill howls were faintly heard.
The howls were transmitted to the command desk through the intercom.
Listening to the miserable howls, Captain Ed didn't care about his image and hurriedly called the shipowner with a satellite phone, asking the shipowner to transfer money to the designated account.
And the shipowner on the other side of the satellite phone did not dare to neglect it after hearing this outrageous news.
He has a lot of ships under his control, and the sailing tracks and names of these ships are public information in the international market.
If someone wants to check, they can find it without much effort.
Even if the pirates can't find it, their opponents will definitely not miss this good opportunity.
At that time, all ships can't leave and can only stay in the port.
Then the ship owner will be really useless.
The ship owner is very efficient. In just half an hour, the ransom of the cargo ship of 1 million US dollars has arrived in the designated account.
After confirming the arrival of the funds, the leader's eyes turned and he led the people to retreat, and at the same time called out his teammates on the bridge.
Each of them found a good position and prepared to snipe.
They withdrew from the deck, and the pirates who were still hanging on the rope immediately became energetic and went up to the deck as quickly as possible.
However, what greeted them was not the cowardly crew, but the dark windows and RPG rockets.
Just a face-to-face time, the pirates who climbed up were damaged.
Listening to the fierce battle on the deck, the pirates, who were bullying the weak and afraid of the strong, immediately lost their temper. Those who were still climbing up immediately got off the boat, returned to the boat, and then sailed away.
After confirming safety, the leader led people to shoot at the people on the ground, and then took some videos and photos, and then left with satisfaction.
After a long time, Captain Ed brought a few people and carefully appeared on the battlefield.
Looking at the mess on the ground, he vomited directly.
It's over, everything is over.
………… Yanjing, CCTV.
Following the memory of the previous few times he came to participate in the program, Lin Yu happily carried the information and went into the CCTV building.
He did not go to the office area of the industrial channel, but went upstairs directly to the office area of CCTV.
The industrial channel, agricultural channel, and movie channel are just hanging the CCTV sign on the surface, but secretly, they are under the jurisdiction of a separate department.
To advertise, the traffic of the industrial channel, agricultural channel, and movie channel is not enough.
And the first choice channel is naturally Channel 1.
With a clear ding, the elevator arrived at the target floor.
Walking out of the elevator, Lin Yu walked past the people going out and came to the director's office.
He reached out and knocked, then took out his mobile phone, found the number he had contacted once before, and dialed:
"Director Ke, are you in the office?"
As soon as the voice fell, the office door was opened from the inside, and a middle-aged man with a bookish look on his face and wearing frameless myopic glasses appeared at the door.
With a slight glance, the originally indifferent face immediately had a smile, and then he extended his right hand, with a little bit of flattery:
"Director Lin, the magpie outside my window has been calling for a long time, and you are finally here."
While Ke Ming was talking, Lin Yu glanced at the window in the corridor with the corner of his eye.
The big pants of CCTV were only started in October 2004, and the current CCTV is still in the old office area.
The building is not high, but there are no magpies.
Retracting his gaze and putting on a kind smile, Lin Yu also naturally extended his hands and shook hands with Ke Ming:
"Director Ke, your words are too formal. According to age, I have to call you uncle. There is no need to be so formal when two uncles and nephews talk."
"Yes, yes, yes! There is no need to be so formal when two uncles and nephews talk." Ke Ming seemed to have just woken up from a dream. He slapped his forehead hard, made way, and let Lin Yu into the room.
After arranging people to sit on the sofa and serving tea, Ke Ming smiled and asked:
"I heard from the person in charge of the industrial channel that Mr. Lin is going to run an advertisement?"
Faced with his inquiry, Lin Yu calmly raised his left hand, spread his five fingers, and said calmly:
"500 million advertising fees."
"Hiss——" A very clear gasp sounded in the room, and the person who made the sound was naturally Ke Ming.
After taking a deep breath, he raised his hand to hold his little heart.
Forcing his little heart not to jump out.
CCTV ads are calculated by the second.
Each ad is at least 5 seconds long, and each second costs from a few thousand to hundreds of thousands.
Even if the ad time is calculated based on the longest 30 seconds, and then calculated based on the prime time before and after the news broadcast, which costs hundreds of thousands per second, the 500 million yuan advertising fee can be used to run ads for two consecutive months.
Moreover, this is a separate large order.
With this large order in hand, more time and energy can be freed up to do other work, and the people in the advertising department can also take on better and more exquisite ads.
Moreover, with such a large amount of money, the new pair of pants can also have more and better designs.
Forcibly suppressing the throbbing in his heart, Ke Ming came to Lin Yu and squatted down, and asked carefully:
"Then I dare to ask what product Mr. Lin is going to advertise, and what is the time requirement for the advertisement."
"This!" As he spoke, Lin Yu took out two mobile phone boxes and two USB flash drives from his handbag.
He unpacked a mobile phone, turned it on, handed it to the person opposite him, and then explained:
"This is a smart phone produced by our electronic technology company under Rheinsteel."
"It looks a little worse than the Apple phone in America, but its performance is definitely not bad."
"And the price is right."
"As for the advertising time, the 20 seconds before and after the news broadcast, and..."
Under Ke Ming's gaze, Lin Yu calmly highlighted two words: "Spring Festival Gala!"
After a slight pause, he quickly said: "There will be some goods in the Spring Festival Gala performances and in the camera."
"The program of the Spring Festival Gala has been fixed and cannot be modified temporarily."
"So all I ask is to put my mobile phone products under the camera."
"Give me more shots."
"I wonder what Director Ke thinks?"
After listening to Lin Yu's request, Ke Ming fell into silence. After a long time, he slowly raised his head and explained: "If you go to the Spring Festival Gala, the cost may be..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Lin Yu's left hand raised again: "These 500 million yuan are advertising fees. I will give you the money and you will give me a plan. If it works, we will sign it now." contract."
"The time is quite tight, everyone is very busy."
Hearing the meaning of Lin Yu's words, Ke Ming did not dare to neglect. He called for the Spring Festival Gala's props, show notes, director, finance, and legal affairs as quickly as possible.
The director is responsible for adjusting the program, and they are responsible for the on-site props arrangements and the shots given.
After a round of deliberations, the final plan was finalized.
Of the 500 million yuan, 400 million yuan is used for daily advertising.
And the remaining 100 million was thrown at the Spring Festival Gala.
A group of people beat their chests vigorously and promised Lin Yu to the death that they would have enough footage for the Spring Festival Gala.
After finalizing the plan and completing the follow-up procedures, Lin Yu left the advertisement made by Lu Lin and left CCTV.
It wasn't until his back disappeared that the legal officer timidly raised his head and asked Ke Ming: "Director, have you stepped on shit? Such a big deal was settled so easily."
Ke Ming calmly glanced back at the legal affairs department: "Your meal allowance, transportation and accommodation allowance for today are all gone."
After threatening the legal affairs, he turned back to look at a few other people: "Send me the advertisement today. We must let our sponsor know that his money was well spent."
…………
"Quoting AFP news, the English cargo ship Lady Windsor was attacked by pirates while passing through the Red Sea last night."
"But a group of brave American soldiers stepped forward, killed most of the pirates, and bravely protected the cargo ship."
It was already evening at Lu Lin's house. Lin Yu was sitting on the sofa, preparing to watch the advertisement after the news broadcast. However, he never expected that he heard the last news on the news broadcast.
After running through the news in his mind, he was filled with questions.
Private America saves England's cargo ship from pirates.
He can recognize these words individually, but the problem is, how come these words become so unfamiliar when they are put together?
How could Private America go to save England's cargo ship from pirates?
Then, he saw an outrageous scene.
Under the dim light, soldiers wearing American desert camouflage were fighting with the pirates on the deck.
Completely self-sacrificing.
