Lin Nan is a young and promising advertising strategist who works in an advertising agency with unlimited creativity and ambition. He gradually felt that his career was at a bottleneck. While he has a lot of ideas, most clients care about only one thing: sales. He began to feel that the advertising industry seemed to have lost its creativity and authenticity, and became full of falsehood and deception.

One day, a customer from a small company approached Lin Nan and asked him to help them promote a product that wasn't great. Lin Nan was faced with a difficult decision: either stick to ethics and only show the true characteristics of the product, which could lead them to lose this customer, or choose to promote the product in a fake way to cater to the customer's needs.

In the end, Lin Nan decided to choose the latter. He devised an elaborate advertising plan that included exaggerating the product's features, using fake statistics, and hiring a famous actor to endorse the product. After the ad was played on the media, it was an amazing success. The sales of the product soared, and the customers were also very satisfied with Lin Nan's work. However, this decision made Lin Nan feel guilty in his heart.

Over the next few months, Lin Nan continued to create false advertisements, each more exaggerated and untrue than the last. He began to feel more and more depressed, but also more and more addicted. He began to lose himself and no longer cared about morality and authenticity, only about customer payments and the company's profits.

One day, however, a young journalist contacted Lin Nan, claiming she had evidence that he had produced a series of false advertisements. Lin Nan felt panicked, he knew that if this matter was exposed, his career would be completely ruined. He decided to meet with reporters to try to persuade her not to go public. However, during the meeting with reporters, Lin Nan began to reflect on his actions, realizing that everything he did was wrong.

Lin Nan decided to change himself and started creating real ads for his clients, no longer using false information. However, this decision caused a series of challenges and difficulties, including the loss of some customers and facing the company's dissatisfaction. But Lin Nan firmly walked on the path of truth and morality, and no longer pursued false success.

Lin's decision sparked a fierce controversy within the company. His superior, a senior manager named Li Wen, was very unhappy with his change because she believed that false advertising was the company's gold medal way to make money. At the company's meeting, Li Wen and Lin Nan had a fierce quarrel.

Li Wen: (Angry) Lin Nan, you have simply betrayed our team! We have established a successful model, and our customers have been very satisfied. Lin

Nan: (Firmly) Li Wen, I can't continue to make false advertisements. I felt guilty and hypocritical, this was not the career I wanted. We should provide real value to our customers, not deceive them.

As divisions within the company intensified, Lin began to struggle to find a balance that would meet the needs of his customers while maintaining authenticity. He spends a lot of time researching various products, trying to tap into their true value and advantages, and incorporating this information into advertising, not exaggerating.

One day, he was approached by a new client, the founder of a startup that was launching an innovative health food. Lin Nan accepted this challenge and had in-depth discussions with the customer.

Customer: (Excited) Mr. Linnan, I believe that my products can really improve people's health. But there are too many false ads in the market, and I don't want us to be one of them too.

Nan Lin: (smiles) I fully understand your concerns, and I will create a real advertisement that highlights the merits of your product without exaggerating. We want to provide real value to our customers.

Over time, Linnan's advertising strategy has been highly praised by customers. Their products began to be successful and word of mouth spread quickly. Lin Nan has also gradually won the respect of some colleagues within the company, especially those who are dissatisfied with false advertising.

Lin Nan is not alone in the moral struggle within the company. He found a group of like-minded colleagues who also felt the pressure of dissatisfaction with false advertising. One of the colleagues, named Wang Lei, is a senior designer of the company and has become close friends with Lin Nan.

Wang Lei: (whispered) Lin Nan, I appreciate your decision. I've also been unhappy with the company's false advertising, but I've never found a way to change it.

Lin Nan: (smiling) Wang Lei, we can work together to change the company's culture. We can prove that real advertising can also be successful.

They decided to collaborate and start working on more real-world advertising cases to prove the viability of this approach. They found a small company that had achieved remarkable success with real advertising. Lin Nan and Wang Lei decided to get in touch with the company to learn more about the details of real advertising.

After meeting the founders of this company, they got some valuable experience and advice.

Founder: (Encourage) Lin Nan, Wang Lei, don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone. While false advertising may lead to short-term success, authentic advertising can build long-term trust and customer loyalty. As long as you persevere, you will succeed.

Lin Nan and Wang Lei returned to the company and began to change their advertising strategy. They had honest conversations with some clients, explained the importance of real ads, and created real ads for them. While some customers left the company because of this, there were others who chose to stick with it and believe in their approach.

However, this change has not been smooth sailing. Some people within the company still strongly opposed their decision, especially Li Wen. At a company meeting, Li Wen questioned Lin Nan again.

Li Wen: (Angry at Lin Nan) Lin Nan, your and Wang Lei's changes have caused the company's sales to decline!

We are building long-term customer trust, which is more important than short-term sales.

The efforts of Lin Nan and Wang Lei have gradually attracted the attention of the industry. A media company decided to interview them about their changes and how to combat false advertising.

Reporter: (tape recorder turned on) Lin Nan, Wang Lei, thank you for taking the time to interview us.

Nan Lin: When we realized that false advertising was having a negative impact on consumers and the market, we decided to take action. We believe that authentic advertising can better meet the needs of our customers while building long-term trust.

Wang Lei: Yes, we also believe that false advertising has damaged the reputation of the advertising industry to some extent. We want to change that to prove the value of real advertising.

Reporter: Do you face a lot of resistance within the company?

Some colleagues and superiors were skeptical of our change, but we were convinced that our approach was the right one. We are also fortunate to have the support of some of our supportive colleagues.

Wang Lei: Our goal is not only to change the company, but also the entire industry. We hope to combat false advertising and improve the reputation of the advertising industry.

After the interview, Lin Nan and Wang Lei continued to work hard to promote the concept of real advertising. They started working with other advertising agencies to share their experiences and success stories in an attempt to drive change across the industry. They have also actively participated in the campaign to combat false advertising, working with government agencies to call for greater regulation of false advertising.

Lin Nan and Wang Lei's persistence began to attract widespread media attention. A well-known domestic news organization decided to produce a special report on their changes and the problem of false advertising.

Reporter: Lin Nan and Wang Lei, your changes to false advertising have attracted widespread attention in the industry.

Lin Nan: We are very honored because this attention is not only about us personally, but also about an issue in the advertising industry. False advertising has affected the rights and interests of consumers, and we hope to attract more people's attention and solve this problem together.

Wang Lei: We believe that the media has a huge influence and can help spread our ideas and also drive change in the advertising industry. That's one of the reasons we're interviewing, and we hope to resonate with more people.

Lin Nan: Yes, false advertising is a global problem. It doesn't just exist in our country, it happens all over the world. We hope that our experience will inspire more countries and regions to take steps to combat false advertising.

Wang Lei: False advertising not only hurts consumers, but also hurts the credibility of the advertising industry. We must take action to restore public trust in advertising.

With the broadcast of this special report, Lin Nan and Wang Lei's voices became louder. They began to be invited to various industry seminars and lectures to share their experiences and perspectives. Media attention has also prompted governments and regulators to pay more attention to the issue of false advertising and strengthen the regulation of the advertising industry.

The story of Lin Nan and Wang Lei began to spread on social media, sparking a campaign about anti-false advertising. People began to share the false advertising they themselves encountered in their lives, and many joined the movement calling for a more honest and transparent advertising industry.

One day, Lin Nan was contacted by a young consumer named Sophie, who was tricked into buying a non-existent product in a false advertisement. She hopes that Lin Nan can help her and also bring more attention to her case.
