It is now the end of '94, and the production technology of the DVD player is no longer unique to Wanyan Company, which is very regrettable.

The DVD player plays "The End of the World", which is the first Hollywood blockbuster introduced in China. Welfare also began to be known to the Chinese people from this movie. The film is showing the murder of the wife of the doctor Jin Bao, Jin Bao is suspected of murder and sentenced to death, and on the way to the prison, the prisoners in the same car try to hijack the car and escape......

When Xie Wanqing, Xu Si, and Zhitong saw this, they even breathed thinly, which attracted the gripping plot. Zhang Ke's eyes were staring at the screen, but his mind was trying his best to recall the details of the relevant disc player industry.

Domestic theaters began to introduce foreign commercial films in 95 years, and "The End of the World" caused by 94 years was the first blockbuster to be released, which greatly enriched the domestic film source, but the genuine disc at that time should be more expensive, right?

Zhang Ke picked up the disc box of "The End of the World" and asked Wanqing: "Sister Wanqing, this disc is quite expensive, right?" ”

"It's not too expensive, it's only over fifty, it's more convenient than going to the cinema......" Xie Wanqing felt very strange when she saw that Zhang Ke cared about this at this time, glanced at him, and quickly shifted her eyes to the screen again.

Fifty yuan a disc, only Xie Wanqing has never suffered money and people will not feel expensive, Zhang Ke asked again: "How much did you buy a disc player?" ”

"Sent by a friend, I don't know the specifics, it's probably more than four thousand," Xie Wanqing turned her head sideways and stared at Zhang Ke, "If you have time to spare, you will focus on studying, your last exam made everyone very embarrassed, I don't know how to face your parents, don't think about playing." ”

It is not surprising that the disc player will be so expensive when it first comes on the market, and in 94 years, laser CD players, video recorders, and combined stereos are all household appliances that wealthy families can afford, and digital mobile phones are the same as luxury products. However, as long as a large amount of capital is invested, the selling price will drop sharply, but unlike the mobile phone manufacturing industry, because Wanyan Group has not applied for a patent, the disc player industry has no technical threshold to enter.

In ninety-four years, there was only one disc player launched by Wanyan Group in the disc machine market, and the sales volume in ninety-four years was only tens of thousands of units, as if there were only 20,000 units. In addition to the expensive factor of disc players, the price of discs is the biggest limiting factor, 50 yuan a disc is extremely expensive for ordinary families, and it cannot promote the development of the disc rental industry.

But after the piracy industry was rampant in the southeastern coastal cities, the spring of the disc player market suddenly came.

Zhang Ke did not know whether the disc piracy industry would be rampant next year or the year after, but judging from the current situation, in particular, there is no difficulty in the technology of pirating disc production, and the cost is extremely low, and the disc piracy industry may explode at any time.

Pirated discs sell for less than one-tenth of the price of genuine discs, which has led to the development of the disc rental industry. In the mid-90s, most of the Chinese people did not have the concept of intellectual copyright, and small rental shops began to appear outside the streets and alleys, inside and outside the community.

After that, the spring of the disc player industry will be ushered in, and it will be a new industry that suddenly broke out!

"What are you thinking?" Xu Si asked Zhang Ke sideways. The film has been broadcast, Zhang Ke's eyes are still fixed on the screen, and his mind is not a film at all.

"Ah, I'm done." Zhang Ke came back to his senses, "What other good-looking discs?" ”

"It's all old films, and there are videotapes at home, but the discs look clearer, and I bought them all back, you go and see them, they're all in the drawer below......" Xie Wanqing said in a calm manner, just listening to her tone, you could hear that she was not interested in those old films.

Zhang Ke opened the drawer under the TV cabinet and saw the words "Albania", and he was very discouraged. It was not until 95 years that China began to introduce foreign commercial films on a large scale, and at that time, the Chinese people suddenly discovered that in addition to Hong Kong films, there was also such a wonderful and exciting commercial film world.

The upper right corner of the disc is pasted with the logo of Wanyan Group, and Zhang Ke remembered that the earliest disc was also developed by Wanyan. With a disc player without a disc, just like a gun without bullets, Wan Yan formed a complete set of forming technology at the beginning of 94, at least in 94 years or dominated the VCD disc player market, but unfortunately ruined in the perception of intellectual property rights. The general manager of Wanyan Group is described in the industry as a "revolutionary martyr" on the road to the development of China's digital disc technology, which is somewhat regrettable.

It's a pity that it's someone else's business, Zhang Ke put his fingers on his forehead, but the corners of his mouth are smiling, one thing is certain, no one can realize that it only takes two or three years, and the demand for disc players will increase hundreds of times and thousands of times.

Zhang Ke's expression was too strange, Xu Si and Xie Wanqing looked at each other, unable to guess what he was thinking, obviously going to rummage through the disc, his fingers stopped on a disc, but his eyes didn't know where to go.

"You're okay?" Xu Si stretched out his hand and shook his eyes, seeing that he didn't react, he turned sideways and said to Xie Wanqing, "Let's ignore him, he is always used to wandering." ”

When he walked out of the Xixia District Procuratorate, the sadness in Xu Si's heart could not be suppressed, and after more than half a day, he was able to clean up his mood.

Xie Wanqing smiled, got up and stretched, and wanted to go over to help Zhang Ke choose a disc, so that he would not be distracted, and everyone would be bored with him.

Xie Wanqing walked over, but Zhang Ke stood up, walked to the telephone next to the glass corner cabinet, put his finger on his forehead, quickly dialed a string of numbers, and waited for a while before the other end of the phone was connected: "Jiang Wei is not there?" ”

Kumho accepted that Haitai's employees were no longer a simple shell company, and the previously slightly open office could no longer arrange so many people, and rented a large office on the same floor of the Xinhaitong Building for the use of the project planning department and the restaurant plaza operating company to be established in the near future.

There was no response on the other end of the phone for a long time, so Zhang Ke stood on the phone and waited.

"Why are you still looking for Jiang Wei at this time, haven't you asked her about the situation of the paper mill today?" Xie Wanqing pushed the disc into the disc compartment, and the TV showed the words "reading the disk", Xie Wanqing saw that Zhang Ke was distracted for a long time, and suddenly wanted to call Jiang Wei, feeling very strange. You must know that Jiang Wei often complains that Zhang Ke gives too few decisive opinions, and those of them who are used to sitting in the administrative organs want to get clear instructions, so that they feel that they can carry out their work with peace of mind.

Zhang Ke nodded, smiled, and felt that he shouldn't laugh, and said, "There is something to find her." ”

After a while, the phone on the other end was picked up again, and Jiang Wei's voice appeared on the other end of the phone: "Ke Shao, what do you have to tell me?" ”

This "Ke Shao" or Wu Tianbao shouted out first, and people who knew Zhang Ke's details followed suit, and when it came to his status, Jiang Wei, Zhou Fu, Zhou You, and Zhou Wenbin were all under him, but he was young, and calling him "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang" in a serious manner always made people feel awkward, but "Ke Shao" made people sound like a gentleman. Zhang Ke's biggest dream is to be a gentleman and take it well.

"You borrowed two people from Liu Minghui to collect as much information as possible about the DVD player, yes, it is the kind of DVD player produced by Anhui Wanyan Group, which ordinary people don't see much, and your family bought one from the provincial capital? This kind of DVD player may only be sold in the International Plaza in Haizhou City at present, and I will bring two from the provincial capital back to Haizhou. It's best if you know, I don't need to explain anything. The manufacturing technology of the DVD player is not exclusive to Wanyan Group, you should prepare first, I will go back to Haizhou tomorrow, and I may let you go out for a trip recently. Three people, one person goes to Anhui, you go to Shenzhen with another person, if possible, go to Hong Kong, how long does it take to go to Hong Kong at the earliest...... Okay, you go through the border formalities first, I need a complete set of technical information and market analysis......"

Zhang Ke thought to himself that at this time, the production technology cracked out by Hong Kong might be one step ahead of Wanyan Company itself.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Jiang Wei asked on the phone.

Xu Si and Xie Wanqing also startled Zhang Ke's words, and they watched a disc at home in the afternoon, so they rushed to send someone out to investigate the industry background of the DVD player? They couldn't help but stand up and looked at Zhang Ke in confusion.

Zhang Ke smiled at Xu Si and Xie Wanqing, and said to Jiang Wei on the other end of the phone: "You should familiarize yourself with the information as much as possible...... "There are no extra words, and he hung up the phone.

Seeing the doubts on Xu Si and Xie Wanqing's faces, she smiled and said, "Why don't you watch the disc?" ”

"Can we not be curious about your surprise?" Xie Wanqing said with a smile.

"It's nothing," Zhang Ke smiled disguisedly and asked Wanqing, "Can you buy this kind of DVD player at Oriental Plaza at this time?" ”

"I also plan to keep all of us in the dark at the beginning," Xie Wanqing smiled, her trust in Zhang Ke was almost instinctive, and she couldn't imagine why he gave such a mature and steady impression at such a young age? "I could have had the DVD player delivered to my door, but it was still early for dinner, so it was a good idea for four people to go to the Oriental Mall."

This time, Xie Wanqing did not drive herself, but took a taxi to the Oriental Plaza in the city center. Not only did she accompany Xu Wei and the girls in her dormitory to Oriental Plaza last time, but when Zhang Ke was studying at Tunghai University, he used to go to Oriental Plaza to browse beautiful women when he had time.

If it weren't for various reasons, Zhang Ke would not have returned to Haizhou after graduating from university. He has always firmly believed that living in the provincial capital is a kind of happiness, and what makes Zhang Ke more happy is the beauties with unique styles, they are either local beauties who are contaminated with local beauty, but more are beauties from all over the world who are greedy for life here, nourished here, lingered here, and contaminated with the atmosphere of the city.

Xu Si has never hidden her love for this city, maybe Haizhou has too many unbearable and painful memories for Xu Si, but what makes her miss the provincial city should be the memories left by her four years of college life in the provincial capital.

Whether it is the alleys in the south of the city or the high-end writing buildings in the East, a touch of light makeup, fresh and elegant girls will make Zhang Ke's heart swaying when he inadvertently glimpses them. Xu Si should be a beauty who belongs to the city, glamorous but not demonic, charming but not vulgar, and the shallow smile that is naturally carved and decorated is full of thousands of styles.

Walking into the Oriental Plaza, this is the place where beauties appear most frequently in the city, and it is also the place where Zhang Ke is most willing to hang out during his four years of college. The beauties of the beautiful people ushered in one after another, and they smiled and looked forward to the graceful manner.

The last time I came to entangle Xu Si, Xu Wei, Jiang Daier and other beauties, I didn't pay close attention to the beauties of the provincial capital in ninety-four years, and now I took Zhitong's hand and walked behind Xu Si and Wanqing, and admired it unscrupulously, but compared carefully, although Xu Si was dressed plainly, the charm that melted into his bones was rare for beauties, at least he walked into Oriental Plaza for most of the day, and he had not seen the same stunning color as Xu Si.

Although Zhitong still refuses to speak, she looks as innocent and cute as a porcelain doll, and her black eyes are smart and flawless, probably the most attractive little beauty in Oriental Plaza, and even some girls can't help but run over and pinch Zhitong's face: "What a beautiful female doll!" In the presence of Wanqing and Xu Si, Zhang Ke could only maintain a restrained smile, thinking that next time he would kidnap Zhitong out alone, Zhitong would undoubtedly be a sharp weapon for his sister.

"What are you looking around?" Xu Si held the clothes he tried on in his hand and slapped Zhang Ke lightly. She is not very accustomed to the luxury of the city, Xie Wanqing pestered her to try on clothes, and Zhang Ke fanned the fire next to her.

Zhang Ke sat on the soft leather in front of the fitting room, resting his chin on the top of Zhitong's head irresponsibly, he clamped Zhitong's immature body between his legs to prevent her from struggling, but he lingered around the costumed beauties in the past.

"How can you look blind, you are hiding in the interview to get dressed, and you don't stand up to show me, I was thinking, how charming the clothes on these people should be on Sister Xu Si!" Zhang Ke stared at Xu Si's shy face.

"What nonsense?" Xu Si glanced at him sideways and pulled the struggling Zhitong out of his arms, "You know how to bully Zhitong." ”

"Zhitong, did Brother Xiao Ke bully you?" Zhang Ke looked down at Zhi Tong's innocent eyes and asked.

Zhitong glared at him twice, stretched out her white and tender little hand and hit Zhang Ke's knee twice, seeing Zhang Ke's teeth showing a fierce look, she giggled and hid in Xu Si's arms.

Xie Wanqing came out of the fitting room, folded the clothes she tried on on her arm, and looked at Zhitong's crisp laughter like a silver bell, her heart was very warm, and the loneliness and sadness in her heart could hardly be felt at this time.

Accompanied Xie Wanqing and Xu Si to wander out of the women's clothing department boringly, and finally thought about going to see the DVD player.

In ninety-four years, there was only one DVD player from Wan Yan on the market, and Xie Wanqing held a shopping gold card in Oriental Plaza to consume, and the price was more than 4,000 yuan. After reading the introduction of the DVD player, Zhang Ke learned that Wanyan Group acquired copyrights from 11 audio-visual companies at the same time, and opened 97 kinds of discs, which can be said to have opened a complete set of perfect disc player technology, but it is a pity that Wanyan Company did not apply for a patent for this complete set of disc player technology in time, this set of technology should have leaked out, otherwise Jiang Wanmeng may be the first super-rich man in China.

Zhang Ke bought four DVD players and gave 20 discs at any time. Zhang Ke stubbornly grinded and applied a charming smile, and the female manager of the home appliance department of Oriental Plaza finally couldn't get enough of it, and agreed to give away another twenty discs. Zhang Ke is not greedy for this little cheapness, the discs that come with the kind are not retailed, at this time the pirated discs have not yet come out, there may only be one shopping mall in Haizhou City that has a DVD player for sale, Zhang Ke really can't imagine any other place in Haizhou that sells discs.

Although the price of the DVD player is a bit expensive, it is not the main problem, the key is the lack of film source and the price.

Returning with a full load, the nanny who had been on leave during the day also returned, and the nanny prepared dinner.

Zhang Ke, Xu Si, Wanqing and Zhitong continued to watch the disc on the sofa without heart or lungs.

Half of the 40 discs carefully selected by Zhang Ke are Hong Kong films, covering the masterpieces of the golden decade of Hong Kong film and television, which can naturally attract the attention of Xu Si and Wanqing, and Zhang Ke is also willing to revisit these classic films.

Hong Kong films in '94 were at the end of the golden decade, and there were five cinema chains in Hong Kong's heyday, basically maintaining a state of one new film being released every week for each cinema chain, with an annual output of more than 300 films, and creating achievements comparable to those of Hollywood in the United States with tens of square kilometers of projectile land.

It is precisely because of the obvious commercialization of Hong Kong films that although Wan Yan Group developed the first DVD player, it was only a year later that Hong Kong had the most advanced manufacturing technology, and pirated discs were also imported from Hong Kong and neighboring areas to the southeast coastal cities.
