Chapter 39: TV Shows in the Eighties

The brown shell is inlaid with a raised glass screen in front of it, and there are two rotating knobs on one side of the glass screen, the upper knob is for the adjustment table, the lower knob is for toning, and there is a push button below the two knobs for controlling the sound.

Two antennas can be connected to the top of the shell, and the antennas can be rotated at 360 degrees to receive the signal.

With the sound of "Gada", the TV was turned on, and everyone in the room stared at the screen with their eyes open.

"Rustle......... rustle!"

There are no images on the screen, only a "snowflake".

"There's a show, there's a show!"

Liu Lang's uncle also ran over at this time, and immediately screamed when he saw this piece of "snowflake".

"There's a fart!"

The second uncle glared.

"Isn't this the show?"

The uncle, who had never watched TV, pointed to "snowflakes" and said.

"This is the show, the show is a voice!"

The second uncle said solemnly.

"What's going on?"

The second uncle began to knock on the TV to get someone out of the voice.

"Don't knock, what should I do if I knock it down? There is a manual, take a look at it first!"

Liu Lang's father reprimanded.

The manual of this TV is very interesting,There is a circuit diagram drawn on it,It should tell you how to repair,After all, there is no department to repair TV in this era。

"What is this?"

Liu Lang's father scratched his head and couldn't understand it at all.

"Dad, that button can be turned, you can turn it and try it!"

Liu Lang finally couldn't stand everyone's "sluggish" reminders.

"Button?"

Liu Donglai reached out and turned the top button according to Liu Lang's prompt.

"Smack... Syllable... Smack!"

As it kept turning, sure enough, images appeared on TV very soon.

"It's coming, it's coming.........!"

The room burst into cheers.

"This ...... How can such a big box fit a person in?"

The grandmother sitting on the kang almost jumped up.

"Too grandma, this is TV, it's through ......... Well, I can pretend to be a person anyway!"

She couldn't understand it when I explained it to my grandmother.

"I know that the coffin can hold people, but the coffin is much larger than this, so when I die, put it in this box, you see, the people inside can still move!"

The grandmother came to a cold humor and made the whole family laugh again.

"Uncle Zhou, sit down, let's watch TV together!"

Liu Dong came to greet him, and everyone immediately found a place to sit down and watched it with relish.

The image was very unclear, and it was covered with "snowflakes", but everyone didn't care.

"Okay, you guys can't figure out the image?"

Liu Lang couldn't stop complaining in his heart.

"Dad, the image is not clear, you should get an antenna!"

Liu Lang reminded again.

"Antennas, what are you doing with antennas? That's good!"

Liu Donglai didn't know what his son meant, but he still fiddled with the antenna according to Liu Lang's request.

"Whew!"

All of a sudden, the image became clearer, almost like looking in a mirror.

"Wow!"

Everyone let out another exclamation.

"yes, that's TV!"

In this era, the TV signal is very unstable,Only by adjusting the antenna to the correct position can you receive a clear image,Every time you turn on the TV in the previous life,As long as the image is not clear, Liu Lang will hold the antenna and swing left and right,Sometimes the position is accurate and clear,As a result, it becomes blurry again,You can only put your hand on it,He still remembers one time in order to watch cartoons,He put his hand on the antenna for a full twenty minutes,And if the TV fails, it will leak,Although the voltage is not big,But it is also numb and crispy and uncomfortable,It's just painful and happy。

In this era, TV can only receive two programs, one is the central program, and the other is the program of Liaobei Province, and the program is also very simple.

What TV shows are there in this era?

Of course, there are very few, and the first thing is that for decades, the earth does not explode, we do not take holidays, the universe does not restart, we do not rest, every night at seven o'clock, the power outage cannot stop the country's news broadcast.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the national rooster territory slowly lifted from the ground, a bright spot turned around on it, and then drew a five-pointed star pattern, in which there were two English letters of TV, and at this moment the four big characters of the news network appeared.

In fact, more than ten years later, Liu Lang has hardly watched the news broadcast since he went to college, but now, when he saw this scene for the first time, he was almost excited and couldn't help himself, it was full of memories!

No one has been able to compete with the news network for decades, but the memories left behind are only vague, and what Liu Lang remembers most is those classic advertisements, every time I see it, it is like a world away.

Three suspected Chinese men and women got together after many years, a woman took out a bottle of beloved treasures, a delicate spoon took out countless small particles from the bottle and put them into the cup, the hot water melted these particles, and the rising water vapor brought warmth, several people sat together and tasted the fragrant breath in the cup, recalling the beauty of many years ago, and finally, a man looked outside and said sincerely: Bird's Nest coffee, it tastes great......!

A simple story and a simple sentence make people listen to infinite aftertaste, it can be said that this advertisement made Chinese people feel the taste of Westerners for the first time.

This advertisement is one of the first advertisements to enter the domestic Western products, which has extraordinary significance and also brings a great impact to the Chinese people, the story and artistic conception are shocking to the Chinese people at that time, on the other hand, it will be naïve to look at the contemporaries of their own advertising.

A group of big white cats produced by animation are jumping around together, holding a rare microphone in their hands and shouting the word white cat, the figure of laundry detergent keeps appearing in the picture, and after jumping for more than ten seconds, they finally typed a few big words: white cat laundry detergent, help your hands.

In addition, there were "Feiyue" televisions, Chunlei radios, radar watches, etc., and there were so many advertisements on television in 1982, which were broadcast over and over again, but Liu Lang's family always saw them with relish, and even his grandfather watched them intently.

In addition to advertising, there is also the animal world, tigers, lions, etc. appear in turn, this show Liu Lang's uncle is the most favorite, and his parents are also very happy to see it, but Liu Lang is not concerned about animals, but the deep and soothing voice of Mr. Zhao behind him, I don't know how many animals have been accompanied by this voice, if it is counted, it will undoubtedly win the highest honor in the world's animal dubbing industry.

In this era of extreme lack of entertainment, no matter what the program is, the family will sit together, such as the cartoon "The Story of the Mole" that Liu Lang still has some memories of more than 30 years later, and "Astro Boy", which just aired this year and influenced a generation.

In addition, the cartoons of SH Art Film Studio, such as "Cricket", "Ding Ding vs. Monkey King", "Red Army Bridge", "Crossing the Monkey Mountain", "Black Cat Sheriff", "Hulu Brothers", these have just appeared this year.

Adults also love to watch cartoons, but this year they were completely crazy with the appearance of a TV series, and that was the first American film, "Garrison's Expendables".

A group of handsome blonde guys and big beauties are fearlessly rampage with submachine guns in their hands, and the enemies who hit them are holding their heads and running around, both handsome guys and beauties and thrilling, such a film is simply a full range of men, women, old and young, adults and children, and children are all killed without dead ends, even Liu Lang's grandfather is very addicted to it, not to mention Liu Lang's uncle and second uncle and other such young people, as a result, within a few days, the uncle carved a rough "submachine gun" with wood, and no matter who he held in his hand, it was a "sudden burst".

Every night after dinner, the family gets together, sometimes with a few people from the neighbor Zhou family, and nearly a dozen people of all sizes gather in front of the TV to watch happily, as for other neighbors, it is only greedy.

Watching TV has become the most important thing for the Liu family, Liu Lang's second uncle, third uncle and aunt ran over to sit in front of the TV as soon as they got off work, as long as there was a movie inside, they watched it happily, until Liu Lang's grandfather came over and shouted loudly, they would be reluctant to leave.
