Chapter 60: The whole city is OK + Chapter 61: Collectively saving the beauty
I hold the domestic patent of the karaoke machine in my hand, and I naturally have a clear idea when negotiating.
However, Old Chen couldn't make this decision. He just acted as a messenger. CCTV's attention to this karaoke machine is obviously higher than that of previous single-player machines.
Because of the rush, Fan Wubing did not find a dedicated karaoke video, but there was this thing in CCTV, brought from Japan, and was idle because it was useless.
After getting on the karaoke machine brought by Fan Wubing, the song with a strong cherry blossom style began to play. Everyone got on a 24-inch Eastern European standard TV. The screen lit up, and a progress bar began to appear where there were lyrics, which allowed people to quickly grasp the rhythm of singing.
If you adjust the channel, the original sound can appear and then play it. The eight channels interpret the background music, live singing and stereo soundtracks perfectly. The Plain Factory's technical foundation is still very strong. Without a dedicated karaoke belt, you can make such a high-quality prototype within a week. Fan Wubing is very satisfied.
"I have seen it abroad before, but I didn't expect we have it ourselves." A group of idle people from CCTV were wandering around the machine.
Karaoke originated in Japan. Due to Japanese customs, if men go home too early, they will look down on their neighbors. They think that they don’t even have a social engagement every day. Going home too early every day has become a joke for others. Therefore, many Japanese men gather in bars or teahouses after get off work, chatting until very late before returning home. Later, they gradually felt that they should find some new projects to kill time, so Karaoke came into being.
In Japan, some middle-aged and elderly people miss their good times in their youth. By singing old songs, they feel nostalgic emotions, but it is not convenient to sing in front of everyone. They specially opened small karaoke boxes for them to make them come true. This form quickly became popular in Japan, but KTV private rooms became popular in the mainland, but it was ninety-year later.
There are also many amateur singers in CCTV. Although they do not have the courage to show their performance on a top domestic stage like CCTV, they always yell at the same time when no one is present. Now, when I suddenly see this easy-to-use karaoke system, my interest suddenly increases. I think that I will mobilize the director to buy a few sets of them in the future. Everyone can vent their depression and release their passion after work, which is also a good choice.
The cooperation of the karaoke system was soon reached, and the program production was not troublesome. Several editors from CCTV found materials and cooperated with the subtitle production staff to create several karaoke accompaniment belts for hot songs in one night.
The next day, some idle people started to get into an empty house and enjoyed the fun of this karaoke machine, and found some minor problems with the machine. Overall, everyone was very happy.
Perhaps because of the above opinions, CCTV is not very interested in selling machines, but their enthusiasm for making karaoke accompaniment belts is very high. Basically, all the songs published in China have been adapted into karaoke accompaniment belts and have obtained patent rights. In other words, if everyone wants karaoke accompaniment belts in the future, they will automatically make certain contributions to CCTV.
But Fan Wubing scoffed at this. He is very familiar with our national conditions. He knows that the piracy problem will not be solved in more than 20 years. The patent problem is just a weapon to crack down on competitors in the formal industry. It has no binding force on pirates who are rising like mushrooms after a rain.
CCTV holds the patents of the Karaoke accompaniment belt and can only collect some royalties from regular audio-visual publishing houses. There is not much fuel, but judging from their current embarrassment, this is not a small amount.
The accompaniment belt is released very quickly, but how much it should be distributed depends on the production and sales of the karaoke machine. Therefore, after solving the cooperation problem of CCTV, the Fan family rushed back to Panshi City without stopping.
Pingyuan Factory didn't know that Fan Heng had another big project, but was surprised that Mr. Fan, who had always been dedicated, asked for such a long leave? As a result, the day after Fan Heng arrived at the factory, he brought the sample of the karaoke machine to the factory party committee office meeting.
After a few half-old guys sang around the Karaoke machine for a morning, they unanimously decided to take over the cooperation project. The cooperation method was still modeled after the contract signed last time, but the overall profit this time was much higher. The price of a set of equipment was about 2,000 yuan, which could make a profit of about 1,000 yuan.
After improvement and finalization, the size of this machine has been reduced a lot, probably not much larger than a video recorder. You can sing as much as you add a TV.
Therefore, advertising on CCTV also began to be invested. The screen was full of images of handsome men and beautiful women holding microphones and howling in front of the TV. The "Thunder" karaoke machine, like the "Thunder" single-player, quickly became popular all over the country. Orders in big cities are endless. Although the quantity is far less than the sales of single-player, the price is that the profit is relatively high. If you want to increase the profit by tens of millions of yuan this year, it is quite no problem.
Of course, what welcomed Fan Wubing was not only the hotter summer, nor was it just the high returns brought by single-player and karaoke machines. At the same time, there was also a unified examination for elementary school to junior high school. However, this really couldn't arouse any interest for him. After being the first in the papers in a row, he ushered in a comfortable summer vacation.
The sister and sister Fan Ting and Fan Kang also spent the college entrance examination and the middle school entrance examination, which had a profound impact on their personal lives. Naturally, they were not as casual as Fan Wubing, and they were almost exhausted. After the exam, they stayed at home and slept for two days before they recovered their spirits.
In the evening, Fan Wubing asked them to go to the streets to sing together.
"Why did you run to the street to sing?" Both the siblings were a little puzzled.
After they arrived on the street, they realized that after a semester, the streets of Panshi City had undergone earth-shaking changes.
There are more than twenty stalls on the street, surrounded by hundreds or thousands of people, all of whom are singing karaoke!
"I didn't expect it to be so spectacular!" Fan Wubing did not expect that the era of mass entertainment would be so fierce.
Chapter 61: Collectively Saving Beauty
The three siblings walked around the streets and shouted twice at the Karaoke place. Then they slowly walked home at around 10 o'clock in the evening.
"I was so happy to have fun today. I wasted a lot of time for the college entrance examination." Sister Fan Ting said to her two younger brothers.
"Come on!" Fan Kang curled his lips and said, "Sister, you have to survive. I have to suffer another three years of pain."
Fan Ting felt good about taking the college entrance examination this time. Her choice was to apply to the Journalism Department of Peking University, and it was probably not a big problem. Fan Kang had just finished the high school entrance examination and went directly to high school. There was nothing to say. He had to stay in the school for another three years before he could make a breakthrough.
As for Fan Wubing, his life is still far away from college. However, he has been feeling the lack of spiritual life recently and is ready to study for a while, which makes Zhang Mei and Fan Heng very excited.
After walking for a while, I found a group of small oil-skinned people coming across from the opposite side, about ten people, not old, about twenty years old, and the younger ones were sixteen or seventeen. They were dragging the wine bottles in a scattered manner, and a smell of wine could be smelled from a distance.
Just so happened that two little girls came over behind Fan Wubing and the others on bicycles, and passed by Fan Wubing and the others and met the little oil-skinned people in front.
"Ha, the girl is good, come down and have fun together." The little oil-skinned people drank too much, and because of the crowds, they surrounded the two little girls. They laughed and grabbed the bicycle and refused to let them go. Several people had already started to touch each other.
"Hey! What are you doing?" Fan Ting saw clearly the two girls in front of her. One of them was a classmate of their class. Both of them had good grades, so she shouted loudly.
"Ha! There is another one here. I'm worried that I won't have enough points, so don't leave--" Four or five people suddenly came from there, blocking Fan Wubing's siblings and three others.
What Fan Wubing hates is these little oily skins who have no quality, one has no money, two has no power, three has no knowledge, four has no mood. They are simply garbage among hooligans, and the gangsters are at the bottom. When they see them, they cursed angrily, "If you don't want to die, get away, don't affect the uncle's mood!"
"Damn!" A little oil-pie was immediately annoyed and rushed up to give Fan Wubing a while.
Seeing someone trying to beat his younger brother, Fan Kang naturally stopped doing it. His body has always been very strong. Who is afraid of whom who is 1.7 meters tall? Go up and grab the other person's collar and throw it out.
The remaining little oily men gathered around and prepared to fight together.
Fan Wubing was in a good mood and was disturbed by these blind things. When he saw that the other party dared to be arrogant, he shouted loudly, knocked down five people with three punches and two kicks, and all lay on the ground and shouted.
There were seven or eight people teasing the girl there, and they didn't care about anything when they saw this. Some took out daggers from their bodies, and some directly pulled off the metal-headed belt from their waists, and rushed over with a strange cry.
"A group of SBs, who dared to come and seek death without seeing the situation clearly-" Fan Wubing despised them fiercely, then conspired to do so according to the law and directly knocked them down. In the end, Fan Kang came over and made up his feet.
The two little girls were quite frightened just now. Now they saw that the little oily skins were all knocked down, so they ran over. After looking at Fan Ting, they found out that they knew each other. The older one said, "Fan Ting, thanks to your help, we were all scared just now."
"Wu Siyu, I've had a lot of oil skin in the evening recently. Why did you go home so late?" Fan Ting asked.
"I was about to go to her house with my cousin, but who knew that I would encounter this incident?" Wu Siyu explained.
"Is this your cousin? Wow, he is so beautiful!" Fan Ting glanced at the little girl with Wu Siyu and was immediately surprised.
Fan Wubing also looked at him and found that the little girl was indeed very beautiful. No wonder the little oily skins surrounded her. They were not of high quality and had some eyes. When she looked back, she found that her brother Fan Kang's gaze was a little unnatural. She looked at Wu Siyu's cousin, and then took it back.
Something strange! Fan Wubing said in his heart.
"Fan Kang, thank you." Sure enough, the little girl seemed to recognize Fan Kang, and said to Fan Kang after hesitating for a while.
"Nothing, it should be." Fan Kang replied depressedly.
The two of them never went on and suddenly fell into silence.
The two groups happened to be on the same road and lived very close to each other, so they walked together.
Along the way, Fan Ting and Wu Siyu talked a lot. Fan Kang and the little girl didn't talk much, while Fan Wubing didn't find any common language with them and was too lazy to say more. However, both girls were a little curious about Fan Ting's little brother, and were surprised that he had knocked down more than a dozen little oil-skins in an instant.
"Nothing, this is martial arts!" Fan Wubing hit the void twice, and then put on a styling to the two girls and said, "Chinese Kung Fu! Hum hey ha--"
After returning home, Fan Wubing slipped to Fan Kang's room and asked in a low voice, "Hehe, brother, you seem to know that little girl! I think you two seem to be a little wrong! Let's hear it!"
The young man Fan Kang was thinking about it when his feelings were hazy. After asking, he was indeed a little entangled with the little girl.
"You mean, she is the girl in red living opposite our house?! Could it be that you have started to have a crush on her for a long time?!" Fan Wubing said in surprise.
Fan Kang nodded and agreed to Fan Wubing's statement.
"Damn, if I had known, I would have changed the room with you. What would you do if you were too busy with quarrel?!" Fan Wubing said.
Fan Kang curled his lips and expressed his disbelief that he would have such kindness.
"Then what degree are you with her?" Fan Wubing asked.
"What level? We are just classmates." Fan Kang's face turned slightly red.
"Just classmate? I don't believe it. Have you ever passed a small note?" Fan Wubing was beaten to death and refused to believe it. At night, it was obvious that the expressions of the two people were unnatural. There must be something tricky about it.
Further down, Fan Kang refused to say more. Fan Wubing died and begged for a long time, but Fan Kang's tone was very tight and he refused to reveal it at all, which made Fan Wubing feel very bored.
Alas! Seeing my brother's depressed look, he must be frustrated in love! I have to plan for him for help. Anyway, that little girl looks like a disaster for the country and the people. It would be a crime for others to take advantage of it! Fan Wubing was thinking bored all night, and I don't know when he fell in dreams.
