Chapter 271: Specialty
In this year, when getting married, the man must prepare not only the house and furniture, but also household appliances.
Four years ago, families in the Republic were looking for "three turns and one ring" – bicycles, watches, sewing machines, radios.
Now it has developed into four new parts, TV, washing machine, refrigerator, and cassette recorder.
And the gap between the grades of these things is even greater, far more exquisite than the three turns and one sound of the year.
At the very least, a color TV is definitely better than a black and white TV.
Washing machines with a spin-off function are also certainly stronger than single-cylinder ones.
The larger the number of "liters" of the refrigerator, the better, and the more speakers of the tape recorder, the better.
As for the original goods imported from Japan, it is the undisputed supreme trump card, a representative of high quality and high quality.
If it is compared with domestic products, in the term of playing poker, it is completely killed!
But on the contrary, there is a shortage of household appliances.
You must know that since Wen Wei Po published the first foreign advertisement in Rado, although foreign advertisements have come one after another.
Japanese companies even came in groups.
But so far, only Japan's Matsushita Electric has taken the lead in entering the Republic market this year, and has truly become the only large-scale foreign electrical appliance company to carry out economic cooperation with us.
And don't look at this year, my country has introduced three color TV production lines from abroad all at once.
Don't look at the washing machine in China, which has only three years of development history, the annual output has reached more than 2 million units.
However, in the face of the huge population base in China, our self-produced household appliances are still a drop in the bucket, and the supply exceeds demand.
The most obvious evidence is that the monopoly counter of the newly independent household appliances in the Wangfujing Department Store is always full of people, but the color TV is basically out of stock.
Customers who want to buy come here nine out of ten times must not see the spot.
In front of the two television factories in Beijing, scalpers who received color TV tickets from workers have also raised the price to 800 yuan each.
As for the newspapers, 70 percent of the residents in Beijing already own domestic or imported television sets.
I'm afraid it's still dominated by black-and-white TVs, with the majority of nine-inch and twelve-inch TVs.
And this data is also very doubtful about its authenticity.
Because the common people are around, the typical scene after sunset is still after dinner, and the small courtyard of the family with a TV becomes a meeting place for the neighbors.
Even during this period, citizens used their imagination to pursue good viewing results.
For example, they can turn a black-and-white TV into color by using a red, blue, and yellow color chip.
Or you can turn a small TV into a large screen through the "plug-in" device of the magnifying glass.
These clever gadgets constitute the popular memory peculiar to that era.
What else is the reason for this? Isn't it just that there is no money.
At this time, the first batch of college graduates after the resumption of the college entrance examination only earned fifty-eight yuan of anise.
Of course, the general public will sigh at the lack of wages and the household appliances that can cost hundreds of yuan at every turn.
The vast majority of people who are facing marriage can actually afford a TV set with their savings, which is already remarkable.
Most people are afraid that because they want to live with their parents after marriage, they pool the financial resources of the whole family and buy a TV.
If someone's family conditions are good, at most, the man will buy another tape recorder, and it will be the end.
And the woman's family, in most cases, will marry an electric fan, or a bicycle, a watch, a pressure kettle, or something.
If the electric fan for the dowry is floor-mounted, or the cassette recorder is simply bought by the woman, it is already quite good, for the sake of the man.
Therefore, in household appliances, compared with the indispensable TV, the tape recorder is fanatically sought after by young people.
Washing machines, refrigerators, these two things, are still very advanced consumption for ordinary people, and they are rare things that only high-income people can have.
If anyone on the street can hire a tricycle and pull a newly bought Baiju washing machine or a Sulflake refrigerator to their home.
It is equivalent to announcing to everyone that this family has bid farewell to the era of hand-to-hand laundry.
Or ushered in an era that could solve the scorching heat, and life began to move to a new level.
They will make people who have no concept of saving time and energy at all, disdain on the surface, but in fact envy such a voice.
"What kind of washing machine, it's better to wash it by hand? What kind of refrigerator, just to put some leftovers, it takes so much electricity! It's really full! I don't know how to toss it!"
In short, this kind of ostentatious existence is like people driving an open-top luxury car on the street thirty years later.
Then think about it, how proud Zhang Shihui is in this regard, how much advantage does he have to take advantage of, and how much convenience does he have?
In fact, as early as last year, this kid and Liu Weijing purchased all the household appliances of their families from other people who needed to buy appliances.
People regard the four major pieces as dreams, and they are the real "ministers of the seven machines".
And also a minister of foreign countries.
They even gained good popularity because of this.
Not to mention that Zhang Shihui has made a lot of useful "friends", even Liu Weijing's relatives are impressed by Zhang Shihui.
What aunt, uncle, aunt, which family has not touched the light of this Liu family's quasi-son-in-law?
So in fact, Zhang Shihui has long become the sweetheart of the Liu family.
Liu Weijing's relatives all hope that this family business will be completed soon, and they can't wait to climb this family door in their hearts.
So the big family got together during the New Year's holidays.
The big guy inevitably has to rush the progress of this family business.
Like Liu Weijing's second aunt, she often said to Liu Weijing's family.
"Hurry up, what are you waiting for? This son-in-law can do it!"
"Don't look at it as a dry hotel, the level is not as high as ours, but there is a way, in fact, it is more affordable than a director. ”
"Oh, I'm stained with your light too. If it weren't for Xiao Zhang helping me buy a color TV, I wouldn't have known that "Wasted Years" was actually in color......"
In short, others find it most difficult to do, and in many marriages, the reason why the man is prone to conflicts and disputes with the woman.
It's a plus for Zhang Shihui, this is his specialty.
Not only does he not have to worry about it anymore, but even buying good cigarettes and wine, and buying wedding candy are more convenient than others, and they are a step higher.
At least for him personally, it really met the standard of on-demand allocation in advance.
But that's not all, what surprised Liu Weijing the most was that not long after the marriage was confirmed, she actually got a silver ring inlaid with jade and a pearl necklace from Zhang Shihui.
It was Zhang Shihuifei who took her to the jewelry counter on the third floor of the friendship store, and bought it for a small amount of 3,000.
At that time, Liu Weijing was too expensive, and he didn't want to live or die.
But Zhang Shihui insisted that this was the treatment that his daughter-in-law deserved, and said that it would look good when taking pictures with jewelry.
No matter how Liu Weijing excused herself and objected, it was invalid, so she had to accept this kindness.
But if you want to speak from the heart, Liu Weijing has long envied the jewelry of those rich ladies in the movies and movies.
And last year, British Crown Prince Charles married Princess Diana, and the wedding was also broadcast to the world.
Although in our country at that time, television was far from popular, and national television did not join in the excitement.
But then, newspapers and magazines also reported on it extensively, and the wedding photos of the two of them were also used.
Therefore, this "fairytale wedding" also allowed our Chinese people to get the style of a Western-style wedding, and knew the pomp of the British royal family and the demeanor of Princess Diana with her head full of pearls and wearing a wedding dress.
Of course, Liu Weijing will be affected, and will daydream, hoping that one day he can also have one or two, delicate and beautiful small jewelry.
And in this year, the only place in the entire capital where you can buy this is really the Friendship Store.
So the two things that Zhang Shihui gave Liu Weijing are simply too much in line with the girl's mind.
It is equivalent to unexpectedly fulfilling Liu Weijing's dream, of course she feels that she can't be happier anymore.
