Chapter 60 The City is OK + Chapter 61 Collective Salvation of Beauty
With the domestic patent of the karaoke machine in his hand, he naturally has a bottom in his heart when negotiating.
However, Lao Chen can't do this, he just plays the role of a messenger, and CCTV's attention to this karaoke machine is obviously higher than that of the previous single player.
Due to the hurry, Fan Wuxi did not find a special karaoke video, but CCTV had this thing, and it was brought from Yueben, and it was left idle because it was useless.
After setting up the karaoke machine brought by Fan Wuxi, the song with a strong cherry blossom style began to play, and everyone set up a 24-inch Eastern European standard TV, and the screen lit up, and a progress bar began to appear where there were lyrics, which could make people quickly grasp the rhythm of singing.
If you adjust the sound channel, you can play the original sound again, the eight channels will be the background music, live singing and stereo soundtrack interpretation is very perfect, the technical foundation of the plain factory is still very strong, in the absence of a dedicated karaoke belt, you can make such a high-quality prototype in a week, Fan Wuxi is very satisfied.
"I've seen it abroad before, but I didn't expect us to have it ourselves." A group of CCTV idlers walked around this machine.
Karaoke originated from the first day, because of the custom of the book, if the man goes home too early, it will make the neighbors look down on it, thinking that there is no entertainment at work every day, and going home too early every day has become the handle of other people's jokes, so many men gather in the bar or teahouse after work, chat until late before going home, and then slowly they feel that they should find something new to kill the time, so karaoke came into being.
In this book, some middle-aged and elderly people, nostalgic for the good times of their youth, through singing the old songs, soothing nostalgic feelings, but it is not convenient to sing in front of everyone, especially for them to open up a small karaoke box, so that they can get their wish. This form soon became popular in Yueben, but KTV private rooms became popular in the mainland, but it was 91 years later.
There is no shortage of amateur singers in CCTV, although there is no courage to perform on the top stage of CCTV in China, but when no one is around, there will always be two voices, and now I suddenly saw this easy-to-use karaoke system, and my interest suddenly increased, and I thought that I would have to mobilize the director to add a few sets to the station in the future, and everyone can vent their depression and release their passion after work, which is also a good choice.
The cooperation of the karaoke system was quickly agreed, and the production of the program was not troublesome, and several editors of CCTV found materials, cooperated with the subtitle production staff, and made several karaoke accompaniment tapes of hot songs in one night.
The next day, some idle people who had nothing to do began to go into an empty house and have fun around the karaoke machine, and found some small faults with the machine, and in general, everyone was happy.
Maybe it's because I'm worried about the above opinions, CCTV doesn't have much interest in selling machines, but their enthusiasm for making karaoke accompaniment tapes is very high, and they basically adapt the tracks published in China into karaoke accompaniment tapes, and they have mastered the patent rights, that is, if everyone wants K songs in the future, they will automatically make certain contributions to CCTV.
However, Fan Wuxian scoffed at this, he knew very well about our national conditions, and knew that the piracy problem would not be solved after more than 20 years, and the patent problem was just a sharp weapon against rivals competing in the formal industry, and there was no binding force on the pirates that sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
CCTV holds on to the patent of the karaoke accompaniment tape, and it can only collect some royalties from the regular audio-visual publishing house, which is not too much oil and water, but judging from their current predicament, this is not less.
The release of the accompaniment tape is very fast, but how much should be sent naturally depends on the production and sales of karaoke machines, so the Fan father and son rushed back to Panshi City non-stop after solving the problem of cooperation on CCTV's side.
Pingyuan Factory didn't know that Fan Heng had another big project, but he was surprised that Mr. Fan, who has always been dedicated, would take such a long leave? As a result, the day after Fan Heng arrived at the factory, he brought a sample of the karaoke machine to the office meeting of the party committee of the factory.
After a few half-old guys sang wolf howls around the karaoke machine all morning, they unanimously decided to take over this cooperation project, and the cooperation method is still modeled on the contract signed last time, but the overall profit this time is much higher, the price of a set of equipment is about 2,000 yuan, and there is about 1,000 yuan in profits.
After being improved and finalized, the size of this machine has been reduced a lot, probably not much larger than a video recorder, and you can sing to your heart's content with a TV.
So, the advertising on CCTV also began to invest, the screen is full of handsome guys and beautiful girls holding the microphone in front of the TV ghost crying wolf howling images, "Thunder" karaoke machine and "Thunder" single player, quickly became popular all over the country, the orders in big cities are endless, although the number is far less than the sales of the single player, but the profit is relatively high, and if you want to increase tens of millions of profits during the year, it is quite no problem.
Of course, what greeted Fan Wuxian was not only the summer that was getting hotter, nor was it just the high returns brought by the single player and karaoke machine, and at the same time, there was also a unified examination for primary school to junior high school, but this was really not interesting for him, and after being the first in several papers in a row, he ushered in a comfortable summer vacation.
And Fan Ting and Fan Kang sisters and brothers also passed the college entrance examination and high school entrance examination that had a profound impact on their personal lives, and the two of them were naturally not as chic as Fan Wuxi, and the whole person was almost exhausted and collapsed.
In the evening, Fan Wuxian invited them to sing on the street together.
"Why do you want to run out on the street when you sing?" Both siblings were a little puzzled.
When they got to the streets, they found that after a semester of busyness, the streets of Rock City had changed drastically.
On a street, there are more than 20 stalls, surrounded by hundreds of people, all singing karaoke!
"I didn't expect it to be so spectacular!" Fan Wuxian did not expect that the era of mass entertainment would be so fierce.
Chapter 61 The three sisters and brothers collectively rescued Mei for a walk on the street, and also yelled at the karaoke place twice, and then slowly walked home at ten o'clock in the evening.
"I was really happy to play today, and I wasted a lot of time for the college entrance examination." Sister Fan Ting said to her two younger brothers.
"Come on!" Fan Kang pouted and said, "Sister, you have survived, and I still have to suffer for another three years." β
Fan Ting felt good about taking the college entrance examination this time, and her wish was to apply for the Department of Journalism of Yenching University, which is estimated to be not a big problem. Fan Kang, on the other hand, has just finished the high school entrance examination and went directly to high school, so there is nothing to say, and he has to stay in school for another three years before he can get ahead.
As for Fan Wuxi, he is still far away from going to college, but he has recently felt a lack of spiritual life, and he is ready to go to school for a while, which makes Zhang Mei and Fan Heng feel very excited.
After walking for a while, I found a group of small oily skins on the opposite side, about a dozen people, all of whom were not very old, about twenty years old, and a little younger one was sixteen or seventeen.
It just so happened that Fan Wuxian and there were two little girls behind them who came over on bicycles, and they met the little oily skins in front of them.
"Ha, the little girl is good, come down and play together." The little oilskins drank too much, and because there were too many people, they surrounded the two little girls, laughed and grabbed the bicycles to prevent them from leaving, and a few of them had already begun to move their hands and feet.
"Hey! What are you guys doing! Fan Ting saw clearly the two little girls in front of her, one of whom was their classmate of the first year, and her grades were very good, so she scolded loudly.
"Hah! There's another one here, I'm worried that it's not enough, so don't go-" Four or five people suddenly came over from that side, blocking the three sisters and brothers of Fan Wuxi.
What Fan Wuxian hates is these little oily skins with no quality, one has no money, two has no power, three has no knowledge, and four has no mood, they are simply garbage among hooligans, the bottom of the ruffians, and when they see it, they don't scold angrily, "If you don't want to die, go away, don't affect the mood of the uncle!" β
"Damn!" A little oily skin was suddenly annoyed, and rushed up to give Fan Wuzhi a look.
Seeing that someone wanted to beat his younger brother, Fan Kang naturally quit, his body has always been very strong, who was afraid of being 1.7 meters tall? Go up and grab the other party's collar directly and throw it out.
The rest of the little oilskins gathered around, ready to fight in groups.
Fan Wuxian was in a good mood, but he was all disturbed by these things that were not long-sighted, and when he saw that the other party actually dared to be presumptuous, he yelled at the moment, punched and kicked three times, put down five people, and all lay on the ground and shouted.
There were seven or eight people who were molesting the little girl over there, and they didn't care about anything when they saw this, some took out daggers from their bodies, and some pulled off the belt of the metal head directly from their waists, and rushed over with a strange scream.
"A group of SBs, they dare to come and look for death without seeing the situation clearly-" Fan Wuxi despised them fiercely, and then concocted them according to the law, and directly put them down, and finally Fan Kang came over and made up for two feet.
The two little girls were frightened just now, and then they saw that the little oilskins were all put down, so they ran over, looked at Fan Ting and found that they knew, and the older one said, "Fan Ting, thanks to your help, we were all frightened just now." β
"Wu Siyu, there have been a lot of little oily skins at night recently, why did you come home so late?" Fan Ting asked.
"I was going to her house with my cousin, and who knew it would happen." Wu Siyu explained.
"This is your cousin? Wow, that's so pretty! Fan Ting glanced at the little girl who was with Wu Siyu and was suddenly surprised.
Fan Wuxian also took a look when he heard this, and found that this little girl was really beautiful, no wonder those little oily skins would surround them, their quality was not high, but they had some vision. When he looked back, he found that his brother Fan Kang's gaze was a little unnatural, he looked at Wu Siyu's cousin, and then took it back.
There are quirks! Fan Wuzhi said secretly in his heart.
"Fan Kang, thank you." Sure enough, the little girl seemed to recognize Fan Kang, and said to Fan Kang after hesitating.
"Nothing, as it should be." Fan Kang replied sullenly.
The two of them didn't take it any longer, and suddenly fell into silence.
The two groups happened to be on the same road and lived close to each other, so they traveled together.
Fan Ting and Wu Siyu chatted a lot along the way, Fan Kang and the little girl didn't talk much, and Fan Wuxian didn't find any common language with them, and he didn't bother to speak. However, the two little girls were a little curious about Fan Ting's little brother, and they were surprised that he alone actually put down more than a dozen little oily skins in an instant.
"It's nothing, it's martial arts!" Fan Wuxian hit the void twice, and then put on a pose and said to the two little girls, "Chinese kung fu!" Hmph, hey, heyβ"
After returning home, Fan Wuxi slipped to Fan Kang's room and asked in a low voice, "Hehe, brother, you seem to know that little girl!" I think there's something wrong with you two! Tell me about it! β
Fan Kang's young mind was when his feelings were hazy, and when he asked, he was really a little entangled with the little girl.
"You mean, she's the girl in red who lives across the street from our house?! Could it be that you've been secretly crushing on her for a long time?! Fan Wuxian was surprised.
Fan Kang nodded, acquiescing to Fan Wuxian's statement.
"Damn, I knew I would have changed the room with you, and you still need to pay for it?!" Fan Wuxian said.
Fan Kang pursed his lips, saying that he didn't believe he would be so kind.
"And you and her? To what extent? Fan Wuxian asked.
"To what extent? We're just classmates. Fan Kang's face was slightly red.
"Just classmates? I don't believe it, has there ever been a small note? Fan Wuxian didn't want to believe it, at night, he obviously saw that the expressions of the two people were unnatural, there must be something greasy in this.
Further down, Fan Kang refused to say more, Fan Wuxian 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 Wuxian feel bored.
Alas! Looking at my brother's depressed face, he must be frustrated in love! Brother, I have to reluctantly plan for him, anyway, that little girl looks like a disaster to the country and the people, and it is a crime to cheapen others! Fan Wuxi had been thinking about it boringly all night, and he didn't know when he fell asleep.
When I woke up the next day, I found that it was already past ten o'clock in the morning.
