"Make it clear? Of course I will make it clear."
Lin Yue said: "I remember Xiaohua told me that your business is to open a video studio and install air conditioning for it, right?"
Xu Zhengtai said: "That's right."
He was very proud of this because not every video studio can afford air conditioning.
"Not only that, you also want to expand the scale of the video hall and open it all over Tinglin Town, and even into the city, right?"
"Of course, this is the only way to make big money."
"Then let me ask you, what makes the video room better than the cinema?"
Xu Zhengtai thought for a while and said: "It's cheap. You can watch it for one hour for one dollar, and you can watch it for a whole day for five dollars. And you can watch the movie based on everyone's vote. Unlike the movie theater, you have no choice."
Lin Yue threw the car keys to Jiayi: "Go to my car. There is a yellow satchel on the back seat. Bring it over."
"good."
She agreed and walked outside.
She became more and more curious about the man who said he was a time traveler, and found things more and more interesting. She also wanted to know why he said that Xu Zhengtai was not worthy of Xiaohua.
Less than five minutes later, Jiayi left and returned.
Lin Yue took the satchel she handed him, opened the zipper, took something out and threw it on the chair: "Do you know what this is?"
Xu Tailang knew, but Xu Zhengtai didn't. He turned over the things in his hands and looked at them: "DVD? What is a DVD?"
He didn't know what a DVD was, but he was very familiar with the pictures on the outside of the box. A Chinese Ghost Story, a female ghost named Xiaoqian, a scholar named Ning Caichen, and Yan Chixia who conquered demons. This was a video hall. A very popular movie.
Lin Yue said: "Open it."
Xu Zhengtai opened the box, took out a CD from it, and looked left and right at the light coming from the ceiling, with a curious look on his face.
"Alang, this is the VCD you were talking about."
Xu Tailang said: "This is a DVD."
"Oh, yes, it says it on the box."
He turned to look at Lin Yue again: "So, what do you mean by bringing this thing out?"
"It means that the video hall is out of date. Nowadays, no-name VCDs only cost a few hundred yuan each, and pirated discs cost three to five yuan each. If you want more, you can get the wholesale price. And the DVD in your hand has the ability to correct errors. Stronger, larger capacity, one disc can hold more than 2 hours of movies. Those video tapes in your store are large, expensive, clumsy and inconvenient, and have poor definition. VCDs are beginning to enter ordinary households, so what do you think? In a year and a half, how many people will still go to a smoky video hall to watch movies? I am at home, watching my wife and children on the hot bed, and then showing a favorite movie, which environment is more comfortable? "
Liuyi said: "My eldest brother just installed air conditioning in the video room."
Lin Yue pointed to the top of his head: "How many months has it been?"
Liuyi said: "You are stupid, it's the end of October."
"The Mid-Autumn Festival is over, silly boy, are you installing the air conditioner for next year?"
"this……"
Liuyi asked him. Indeed, it would be a bit silly to install air conditioners in autumn...
Xu Zhengtai said: "It's cheaper to install air conditioners now, isn't it?"
"As long as you're happy." Lin Yue took out another mobile phone from his bag and threw it to Xiaohua.
"What is this?" Xu Zhengtai grabbed it and looked around: "Big Brother? Big Brother is not like this."
Xu Tailang glanced at Lin Yue and wondered where he got this thing.
"If I'm not mistaken, this seems to be called a mobile phone."
Xu Zhengtai said: "What are you doing?"
"Take it with you and make calls anytime, anywhere."
"Is it still Big Brother?"
"This...how should I put it? Big Brother is too bulky, but this one is just right. Look, it can also input pinyin and send text messages. Hey...don't grab it. Let me see what brand it is, Kejian?"
As soon as Xu Tailang finished speaking, Liu Yi snatched his cell phone away. While fiddling with it, he muttered, "Can this little thing make calls? Doesn't it need a phone line?"
Xu Tailang glared at him, looked at Lin Yue and said, "Where did this thing... come from?"
"Does it matter?"
Lin Yue looked at Xu Zhengtai and said: "I heard that you have stocked a lot of BP machines, but now Panda, Kejian, Southern Hi-Tech, Amoi and other factories are working overtime to produce mobile phones. I think... it will only take a year or two at most. Domestic production Mobile phones will be spread all over the country and become the mainstream communication tool in society, so do you think we will lose money by having so many BP machines?"
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
"You said it will become popular if it becomes popular? Are you a fortune teller?"
"It doesn't matter to me whether you lose money or not. What matters is that with your brain, you can't give Xiaohua a good living condition."
Liuyi didn't think too much and threw the phone on the seat: "Brother, didn't you say that Sister Hua is willing to support you?"
"this……"
It's not like a gang boss to expose his soft-hearted side in front of his love rival.
Lin Yue said: "No wonder you keep losing money and waste money again and again. It turned out that you used Xiaohua as a cash machine, but the current situation is that Huang Zhiqiang has taken a fancy to the land of Beloved Dance Hall and wants Luo Li to follow You negotiate, once the land changes hands, Xiaohua will lose his job, how will your life be at that time? I have seen many people wash their hands for the sake of their wives and children, no longer think about killing, no longer hanging around, work hard to earn money to support their families person, but have you ever thought about it? Even if you are getting married next month, you are still dreaming about Tinglin Du Yuesheng. Xu Zhengtai, you, like this, still have the nerve to say that you like her and give her happiness? I don’t think so A wife would like to see her husband join the underworld."
Xu Zhengtai sneered at his words: "What do you know? A man needs to have his own career and what's wrong with his dream of becoming Du Yuesheng? As you said, Huang Zhiqiang is interested in the land of the Beloved Song and Dance Hall, but as long as I am around, he will There is no chance of succeeding, and Xiaohua’s job will not be lost. Is it possible to be a coward like you?"
Lin Yue smiled and shook his head: "Luo Li is right. He has watched too many Hong Kong movies. Let's put it this way, you can't keep the land at the Beloved Cabaret."
"Who said I can't keep it?" Xu Zhengtai looked contemptuous: "I can't keep it, but you can keep it?"
"Of course." Lin Yue said: "But I won't be like you. I like to use this place..."
He pointed to his head, meaning that he had a brain and Xu Zhengtai had no brain.
"Arrogant." Xu Zhengtai said: "In this case, let's compete to see who can keep the land of the song and dance hall so that Xiaohua will not lose her job. If you lose, get out of Tinglin Town and stay forever. Don’t appear in front of me and Xiaohua.”
Lin Yue said: "What if you lose? Just give me the little flower."
"Okay." After saying that, he said with an arrogant look on his face: "But how could I lose! It's just Luo Li."
"You two!"
Xiaohua was angry because their bets were getting bigger and bigger. Last time it was the president of the Shota Gang, but this time it was her.
"Jiayi, let's go."
She picked up her bag, held her sister's hand and left.
Xu Zhengtai said to her back: "Xiaohua, don't worry, Luo Li has asked me to negotiate at the Beloved Dance Hall. I will definitely take him down so that you sisters can continue to work together and have our marriage... You be good Think about it, I’m waiting for your answer.”
Liuyi looked at Lin Yue with a sneer: "Everyone in Tinglin Town knows that every time Luo Li was beaten by his elder brother when he was a child, he would go home crying to his mother, and you are the same."
Lin Yue was too lazy to pay attention to these two young people with secondary disease who were addicted to Hong Kong movies. He picked up his satchel and walked outside.
"I've given you a mobile phone and a DVD to play with."
"Who cares about this crap?"
Liuyi threw something on the ground.
An hour later, Zhenxi Qiaotou.
Xu Tailang gasped and said, "How was it? Did you do well?"
Before entering the cinema, Lin Yue handed him a note. The general content was that he speculated that Xu Zhengtai would propose to Xiaohua to kill his love rival. Lin Yue asked him to cooperate and mess up Xu Zhengtai's proposal ceremony.
This is of course his duty.
So there was a scene where Xu Zhengtai tripped at a critical moment and knocked over.
"By the way, is Azheng's engagement ring at your place?"
"No."
"Do you think I'll believe you?"
"believe it or not."
"Okay, let's not mention this. Let me ask you, when you caught the thief on Zhongjie Street, you said that I was the rally champion. How did you know that I was the rally champion?" Xu Tailang looked into his eyes.
Lin Yue said: "Does this have anything to do with our cooperation?"
"Yes." Xu Tailang said, "If you don't make it clear, don't expect me to help you in chasing Xiaohua."
Lin Yue sighed heavily: "Well, since you want to know so much, I will tell you the cause and effect of the matter."
