Qiujiang Road, the most famous electronic street in Shencheng.

Today is Sunday, the only day off of the week. Qiujiang Road is full of people and is very lively. Ye Zi got off the bus on Tongbao Road, followed the flow of people, and walked slowly on Qiujiang Road, casually entering and exiting the shops on both sides of the road.

Qiujiang Road is a long and narrow road that winds from west to east from Tongbao Road to Beichuan Road. On both sides of the road, there are large and small street-facing shops related to electronic products. Second-hand radios, tape recorders, televisions and pirated tapes are the main commodities here, and you can find good products here for a few dozen yuan to one or two hundred yuan, but you don't need to think too much about after-sales service.

In Qiujiang Road, if you have a pair of discerning eyes, this will be your paradise for Taobao; If not, then it is also a good choice to hang out casually like Ye Zi now.

Qiujiang Road is a place that Ye Zi was very familiar with in his previous life, and Ye Zi already had a purpose in his heart. However, the old place was revisited, the weather was sunny and refreshing, and Ye Zi had nothing else to do, so he followed the direction of the flow of people and walked slowly.

――――――――――

The situation of funds is much better than Ye Zi expected, and there is still a huge amount of 30,000 yuan in the passbook left by his grandfather, which makes Ye Zi greatly relieved. This morning, Ye Zi first went to the bank to withdraw a little money, made an appointment for a large withdrawal, and then booked a synthesizer at the Litong piano store near the TV station, and then went to the TV station to register.

Although the registration fee of 100 yuan is really expensive, it can't withstand the unprecedented scale and influence of the competition, especially the stimulation of high bonuses, which still attracts many players to participate.

Today is the fourth day of registration.

Ye Zi inquired, and nearly 3,000 people have come to sign up for the competition. There are three days left until the registration deadline. According to the estimation of the staff of the television station, the number of applicants for this competition is likely to exceed 5,000. If it is true, this will be the largest competition in Shencheng since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the young talents in the Shencheng music scene will be wiped out in this event.

The preliminary rounds will begin next Monday at more than a dozen competition locations across the city. Ye Zi's preliminary round is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. next Saturday, and the venue of the competition is the small hall on the third floor of the Shencheng Workers' Cultural Palace.

Before the finals, Ye Zi was not going to compete with new songs, and he had already reported the repertoire of the preliminary round when he registered.

Ye Zi chose a representative work of Tong Ange "Can't Forget". This song is the repertoire of Ye Zi's popular night show in his previous life. Even in the later generations before rebirth, there are countless new songs, and this song is still one of the songs that Ye Zi must sing in every performance.

――――――――――

Ye Zi's destination is an electrical trading firm called "Changda". Huang Zhenxiong, the owner of the commercial bank, is a native of Xiangjiang, but he has lived in Shencheng all the year round, and he has long regarded himself as a mainlander, and he speaks fluent Mandarin and Shencheng dialect, and no one can hear any Xiangjiang accent.

This Boss Huang of Changda Commercial Bank is very interesting.

On this Qiujiang Road, other companies are dealing in nothing more than radios, phonographs, televisions, or pirated tapes and other goods with a wide audience, taking the road of small profits and quick turnover. A little more high-end, that is, a video recorder that is still rare in China. Boss Huang's Changda Commercial Bank, but the main business is extremely rare HIFI equipment in China at that time, and a product is thousands of yuan or even tens of thousands of yuan at every turn.

On this Qiujiang Road, Boss Huang and his Changda Commercial Bank are an alternative!

However, over the past few decades, the shops on Qiujiang Road have been closed and opened and closed, and the bosses have been changed one after another. Boss Huang and his Changda firm are doing business day by day! The shop started from one in Shencheng and slowly expanded to all provinces across the country, as well as Xiangjiang, Haojiang, Xingcheng and other places.

Before Ye Zi's rebirth, Changda Group was already the most prestigious HIFI monopoly agency in Southeast Asia, acting as an agent for most of the world's well-known HIFI brands. The group is concurrently engaged in a number of projects such as audio-visual appliances, stage sound and lighting leasing, and has invested in the construction of a huge Changda Electric City in more than a dozen large cities such as Shencheng, Yanjing and Yangcheng. The Group's affairs also involve many industries such as hotels, tourism, cosmetics agencies, etc. Chairman and President Huang Zhenxiong has also become a man of the year on the domestic wealth list. This Boss Huang's investment vision and business methods can be seen from this!

At this time, Huang Zhenxiong, the boss of Huang, was not the president of Huang Dong Huang in later generations, and Changda was still only a medium-sized store with only three street fronts. Of course, compared to three years ago, when Huang Zhenxiong first came to Shencheng with 100,000 Xiangjiang coins and two contracted agency brands, it was much better. The storefront has been replaced by a small ground floor shop pΓΉ to three rooms that have now been opened, and with the addition of the second floor, the business area has more than six times increased. The business situation is also becoming more and more stable, and the number of HIFI brands signed by the agent has increased to more than 20.

In the past three years, Changda has won the affirmation of a very small number of enthusiasts in Shencheng at that time with a professional, sincere and cost-effective attitude, and its reputation has spread far and wide, and many people have come to visit.

In the hearts of enthusiasts in Shencheng and the four provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Hui and Jiangxi surrounding Shencheng, Changda has become the premier golden signboard.

Ye Zi is not an audiophile, but Ye Zi's work must rely on some high-end audio equipment, so he often comes to Changda to buy equipment. After going back and forth like this, he also made friends with Huang Zhenxiong, Boss Huang. Later, Ye Zi left Shencheng to concentrate on developing in the north, and the contact between the two was a little less.

――――――――――

"Young man, are you looking for Xiao Huang too?"

Ye Zi stepped into the door of the store, and just asked the salesperson of the store, "Is Boss Huang Zhengxiong Huang here?"

"Yes, I'm here to find Boss Huang." Ye Zi said, turning around and looking at the person who was talking to him.

It was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties, dressed in a gray handmade Pyris suit that was rare at the time, with a white shirt and no tie, and the top button of the shirt was open. The fabric of the suit is crisp and the cut fits well, and it looks like a high-end product color at a glance. He wears a pair of polished black soft-soled leather shoes. On the bridge of his nose is a pair of delicate light brown gold-rimmed glasses, and his eyes are focused. The hair is neither long nor short, and the sideburns are neatly groomed. The face is gentle, the corners of the mouth are slightly curved to reveal a shallow smile, and the whole person looks kind and elegant.

"Ahh Are you Mr. Sun ・・・・・・ Sun Yun? ”

Ye Zi was a little surprised in his heart, he immediately recognized the middle-aged man in front of him, who was a famous master in the Shencheng music scene in later generations - the famous conductor and pianist Sun Yun. And this teacher Sun Yun is also the chairman of the jury of the Shencheng Division of the Three Places Singer Competition.

The middle-aged man smiled and asked, "Young man, do you know me?" ”

Of course! How could I not know you! What a coincidence!

Ye Zi thought in his heart, and hurriedly replied: "The year before last, when you returned to China, you saw it once on TV; Later, when you led the Shencheng Symphony Orchestra back from a visit to the United States, I also had the honor to go to the concert hall to enjoy the performance of the Shencheng Symphony Orchestra, which was very impressive. Two days ago, when I read the news of the singing contest in the evening newspaper, I saw your photo again, so I recognized it. ”

"Oh, that's right." The middle-aged man smiled slightly and revealed the topic: "Do you have something to do with Xiao Huang?" The salesman said he had something to do and might not be back for a while. ”

Ye Zi nodded and said, "Well, it's a little something, so I'll wait for him." Teacher Sun, if you want to do something, you can be busy, don't worry about me. ”

"Hehe, I'm fine. Huang asked me to listen to something, but he ran away. ”

Ye Ziying's appearance and humble and polite attitude gave Sun Yun a good impression. He happened to be fine, so he invited: "Why don't we go up to the audition room on the second floor and sit for a while, listening to music while waiting?" ”

"Isn't it too much trouble for you? Forget it, I'll wait here. Ye Zi was polite.

Sun Yun waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's nothing troublesome." ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around, and Sun Yun beckoned to a salesman: "Xiao Zheng, please send two cups of tea." Don't be stingy, just use your Boss Huang's Ming Qian! He came back and asked him to come up directly, and we waited for him in the listening room. ”

Waiting for that Xiao Zheng to agree with a smile, Sun Yun turned to Ye Zi and said, "Let's go, young man, let's go up to the second floor." ”

"Teacher Sun, my surname is Ye, and my name is Ye Zi." Ye Zi hurriedly introduced himself, and after half a step, he followed Sun Yun to the second floor.

"Huh? Leaf? Leaves that leaf? ”

Ye Zi smiled: "It's not the leaf of the leaf, it's the Azusa of Mulberry." ”

"Oh, Sangzi's Zi, that's hoping that you will be self-reliant and vibrant, and I hope you will become successful!"

"Yes, Mr. Sun." Ye Zi continued: "My name was given by my grandfather, saying that he should not forget Sangzi, he will return to glory or something, I sometimes feel so stressed when I think about it." ”

"Haha, old man, it's all like this!"

While speaking, Sun Yun and Ye Zi had already come to the innermost listening room on the second floor.

――――――――――

The listening room is about 20 square meters, the length and width are about 5 to 4, and the height is more than 3 meters. The whole color of the listening room is a light brown color, and the floor is covered with a light brown wooden floor.

All the equipment in the listening room is placed in a short window position, including several pairs of speakers of different sizes, power amplifiers, record players and CD players, which are very rare in China.

On the walls on both sides of the equipment, a row of tall wooden shelves were made, and various records were neatly arranged on the shelves; The other short side of the room is the location of the door, which is covered with a thick layer of sound-absorbing cotton for soundproofing. Near the door, a set of beige fabric sofas is placed, and a dark coffee-colored carpet is spread between the sofa and the equipment, and the two are about three and a half meters apart.

The roof of the listening room is a dark sound-absorbing partition with a few spotlights casting a warm yellow light through the gap. The surrounding walls are equipped with a layer of light coffee-colored sound-absorbing panels with holes, and some simple sound-absorbing and diffusion treatments have been made. The windows have also been specially treated with a special vacuum soundproof window and curtains made of thick flannel. At this point, the curtains and both windows were open.

In the three corners of the listening room, several sponge cylinders and sponge spheres are stacked large and small to absorb bass standing waves.

The whole listening room is not luxurious, compared with the professional listening room that has been decorated by millions of people in later generations, it seems extremely simple, but at that time, it was already commendable.

――――――――――

Xiao Zheng quickly brought over the tea, and there was a full hot water bottle.

Sun Yun picked up the teacup and blew it, took a sip, and nodded with satisfaction: "The taste of this Longjing before Ming is different, Ye Zi, you can also taste it." ”

Ye Zi loved to drink coffee in his previous life, but he had no love for tea. However, the name of Longjing in front of the Ming Dynasty had also heard of it, so he also picked up the teacup in front of him and drank it in small sips.

"How? Not bad, right? It's a pity that the water can't work, and the effort to make tea is also a little owed. Sun Yun said with a smile.

Ye Zi nodded "mmmm", and he didn't feel anything particularly good. The entrance of the tea soup is faintly fragrant and refreshing.

Sun Yun took a few sips of tea and asked casually, "Ye Zi, do you also know Xiao Huang?" ”

"Teacher Sun, it's my first time here." Ye Zi put down the teacup and replied, "However, one of my uncles is a regular customer here, and he has a good relationship with Boss Huang. He was the one who introduced me to Boss Huang, and he said that there was something I wanted here. ”

"Oh, I see. So what are you here to buy? Sun Yun was a little strange, and couldn't help but ask.

Huang Zhenxiong's goods here can be described as "specialized, refined, cutting-edge, and expensive", there are almost no cheap things, and they are very professional, which is not something that a student-like young person can ask lightly. And looking at Ye Zi's expression, he is by no means the kind of young master of a rich and noble family.

Ye Zi smiled slightly in his heart. Indeed, in those days, generally speaking, it was impossible for a young man like himself to go to Huang Zhenxiong's Changda to buy HIFI equipment, and Sun Yun's strangeness was very normal.

"Mr. Sun, I want to buy a pair of monitor headphones, and if there is a more suitable professional cassette recorder, I also want to buy one." Faced with Sun Yun's strangeness, Ye Zi said his shopping goal briskly.

Sun Yun was even more strange: "Monitor headphones? Professional Voice Recorder? Ye Zi, what are you going to buy these for? These equipment are not cheap, and they add up to at least a few thousand dollars. ”

"That's right, Mr. Sun, I want to ・・・・・・"

Sun Yun's question was completely expected by Ye Zi, and Ye Zi just took the opportunity to tell Sun Yun some of his preliminary plans. Although today is just an unintentional encounter, as long as you catch it, perhaps, you can leave a certain impression in Sun Yun's heart. This may play a good role in Ye Zi's future, especially for this competition.

"A small music studio? Well, that's a good idea. Sun Yun didn't comment too much on Ye Zi's plan, but just lightly encouraged: "It seems that the old man's assets are quite rich." ”

Ye Zi's expression darkened: "My grandfather has passed away for three years. ”

"Huh? I'm sorry! Sun Yun didn't expect this to be the case, and quickly apologized.

Ye Zi shook his head: "It's okay, Teacher Sun." ”

Sun Yun was a little embarrassed, speechless for a while, and then picked up the cup and drank tea.

After a while, Sun Yun put down the cup, got up and said, "It's boring to sit down, let's listen to something." ”

"Okay, Mr. Sun." Ye Zi was thinking about what topic to use to break the slightly embarrassing tranquility between the two sides, and Sun Yun's mention was just in time.

Walking to the front of the shelf on the right side of the room, Sun Yun asked as he chosen, "Ye Zi, what type of music do you usually like?" ”

"I prefer classical guitar, Mr. Sun."

"Oh? Classical guitar, well, I'll look for it. Hey? Xiao Huang still has this record here! ”

Ye Zi's preference made Sun Yun a little surprised, he looked for a while on the shelf, turned out a record with a black cover, shook it towards Ye Zi, and said with a smile: "I thought Xiao Huang liked to listen to pop songs, but I didn't expect there to be a lot of good goods!" Look, TACCA's vinyl classical guitar is a rare good thing in China. ”

As he spoke, Sun Yun walked over with the record and put it on the coffee table.

Then, Sun Yun walked to the record stand again.

"I'll pick and choose again, maybe Xiao Huang has something good here. Hehe, I haven't been here for two weeks, and Xiao Huang has added a lot of new records here. ”

"Ye Zi, you take a look at this record first, this old man is a powerful person, wait a while, let's listen to this one first."
