Our Glamorous Time

Chapter 42: Stifling Intelligence

The light in the meeting room had been dimmed and the people inside crowded together, everyone holding their breaths. The lively, animated sound effects from the big screen attracted everyone's attention.

These were several television advertisements. There was the logo of a certain television channel imprinted on the upper right corner, and the commercial had already started broadcasting on the station today. At this moment, all the people in the meeting room were reviewing the advertisement together.

The first frame was of a tall and refined young man. He wore a simple shirt with a suit and carried a bag onto the subway. The subway was crowded with people—an everyday scenario that made people feel tired just looking at. However, the scene was done up beautifully and the sound effects were soothing, overall having an effect of a calm within the chaos. It was very artistic. The young man was also soothing to the eyes. Despite not being a star, he was refreshingly handsome and quiet, his gaze bright and gentle.

When the crowd started to push around, he held the support pole with one hand but the bag he carried was knocked around. As he was getting off, the bag scraped against the door of the carriage as he had to squeeze past. At this moment, the camera lens featured the bag and revealed the Aito logo.

Then, following the flow of people, he got off the subway and arrived at the place he worked, which was an IT company. The scene of the office building flashed by quickly, a busy but youthful atmosphere. From the bag, he removed a heavy notebook laptop, then a thick file holder, and several books. He also took out a set of exercise clothes and a badminton racket, placing it in the lowest drawer of his work desk. While he did this, he invited his colleague to play a game of badminton after work.

Although there was no special feature of the bag in this advertisement, after a moment's thought people would notice what had happened. His bag didn't look bulky at all, but it had actually been able to store many things.

In the next frame, he had already finished his game of badminton and was going home after work. At that moment, rain started pouring down. Since his companion had brought an umbrella, the two big men went under it together. His Aito bag poked out from under the umbrella, and his companion asked, "Is your bag all drenched?"

The man smiled and replied, "It's alright."

Then, he was home. A young and beautiful woman welcomed him, taking his hand and they entered the house together. He casually tossed the bag onto the sofa beside her women's edition Aito bag. At this moment, a quick shot revealed that the water stains on the bag had quickly evaporated, leaving it dry. After a while, the young man walked over and retrieved a cheesecake from the bag that was completely unharmed and dry. He passed it to the woman, his girlfriend. "Your favorite flavor."

"Thank you," the woman said in a happy, surprised voice. "I love you."

In the last frame, the two were lying on a large bed in each other's embrace. The young man asked the woman, "Should we go mountain-climbing this weekend?"

She smiled and answered, "Alright." A gentle light shined on their bodies as well as the two Aito bags propped against each other on the sofa.

The voiceover suddenly started: "Carry on the journeys you love, and travel in the city."

The frame changed and a large Aito logo appeared. "Aito City Traveler" was also written on the screen.

Right below there was a line of fine print:

"Making use of Taiwan's Mind technology fabric.

"Water-resistant, fast-drying, light and convenient, hardy, large capacity."
